The Journey Continues

It’s been well over a year that I have officially been in a live in situation, but now that journey has come to an end. I have to move by the end of the month and guess what? I don’t have a clue where I am going. Well let me rephrase that. I do have an idea, but just not sure yet how I will get there, but I have an idea. lol Does that make sense?

I know, it’s a little crazy. I know some folks may view this as a haphazard way of living and I have my questions about it, especially at my age, but I know that God brought me to this place where I am living, with this particular elderly woman to help her toward the “winter” of her life. And that is exactly what God told me. But often people don’t appreciate what they have until it’s gone.

One thing I am sure of, is that it’s definitely time to go. I can’t wait to move even though it’s a faith walk. Faith is my strong area. Especially in situations like this. I wish I could plan like most, but for now, I am walking by faith. I will keep you posted.

2 Corinthians 5:7 New King James Version (NKJV)

⁷ For we walk by faith, not by sight.

 

The Future is Not Fixed!

Years ago I was a part of a ministry where the Pastor used to always say “Destiny is not left of to chance, it’s a matter of choice. The longer I live, the more I understand the truth of this statement. Yes, I believe God’s final worldwide plan will be done, but in our own personal lives, I know that it’s the decisions that we make that are going to decide where we will end up. I cringe when I hear Christians say “if it’s meant to be, it will happen”. Sorry but if that is your belief system, we will have to agree to disagree. I have watched too many things fall to the ground and die, which I know was in the plan and purpose of God. When people were telling me, it didn’t happen because it was not meant to be, God was showing me that I missed it. I have watched too many Christians backslide because what they were promised never happened and what they didn’t realize is, they had the wrong mentality. They sat on the sidelines thinking God was going to do it all, when there was something they needed to do. That is why I have learned to be proactive when God gives me instructions. That is why I am back on this blog. God showed me it plays a part in my destiny. Let me tell you what happened to get my attention and bring me back:

Several hours ago, I went to see The Terminator Genisys. As I headed to the theater the Lord told me there would be a  message in the movie and I almost missed it. Sorry for you super deep Christians, but God speaks to me through movies often. I almost missed the message and saw Ant Man, lol. I was standing at the box office and changed my mind again and am I glad I did. I thoroughly enjoyed the movie with all of it’s twists and turns. Without spoiling it, the movie is very much about the twist and turns towards destiny and when the movie was over, the last words spoken were “the future is not fixed!” Well that got my attention. God knows how to do that. I knew instantly that the Lord was letting me know that my destiny was at stake and something was happening that would try to challenge it. I also instinctively knew that I needed to get back to writing, at least today. God knows that I have lived through missing enough, that I refuse to not get what He intends for me to have.

Perhaps this one blog post can stop the plan of the enemy against me. Perhaps it will help someone else to not make a wrong decision, or move in the wrong direction toward the wrong thing or person. God knows what we need. He is looking for obedience to what he has already revealed.

Abraham and Sarah became impatient about God’s plan and Sarah gave her handmaid Hagar to Abraham, to have a child with, since she was past the childbearing years. This may seem innocent and since God is the giver of life, we may think this was God’s plan. I know it’s hard to look in the face of a beautiful child and say “you don’t belong here”. Yes, Ishmael was born outside of the promise of God. Isaac was the promised child. And the result is the descendants of Ishmael and Isaac are still fighting to this day! This is due to disobedience

Yes, we can create circumstances and relationships and even children, who were not in God’s perfect plan! Why? Because God has given us the free will to do so. But beware! When you do that. you will have to live with the consequences of your actions and that can end up haunting you for the rest of your life! So don’t disobey and create your own hell! Fix your future by cooperating with God!

 

The Case of Bill Cosby

 

It’s all over the news. Formerly, Americas Dad, one of the greatest roles models for Black America, exposed as a fraud! The African-American community was not only upset, but the majority were in denial. It had to be a conspiracy against this powerful Black man. But I knew differently.

Several years ago, before all of Mr. Cosby’s dirty deeds were exposed, God showed me Bill Cosby in a dream. He was in a room with a few other celebrities, which included Chris Brown, who was also being exposed at the time for beating up his then girlfriend Rihanna. I remember waking up from the dream wondering why on earth I had dreamed about Bill Cosby. But with time, it was revealed.

My blog is called “a prophetic walk” for a reason. This calling can be very interesting! And each prophetic person will learn how God deals with them, personally. I know I am a seer. God often shows me things YEARS before it happens. It’s no fun because I am often labeled as false because what I see takes so long to manifest. But it doesn’t matter. It still happens. To date, the longest I have waited to see something God showed me happen has been about 22 years!!! Yes, that long. But in the case of Mr. Cosby, I came to realize, God was showing me, like Chris Brown, some dirt would soon come out on him as well. And I had this dream in 2009!

I have never felt Bill was being railroaded or that there was a conspiracy. From what I heard, it’s a known fact among some in Hollywood that he is a predator. The public just didn’t know it.

So now that Cosby’s die-hard defenders (Whoopi Goldberg and Jill Scott) have deserted him, what will be his end? Well one thing that is important when anyone is exposed is to admit it and apologize and make amends. But few men have that kind of character, especially in the face of millions of people.

It saddens me that this will be his legacy. All he has done means nothing now. Just like OJ Simpson. But that is why we cannot put people who we don’t really know on a pedestal. The arm of flesh will always fail you! But God won’t. I pray that Bill Cosby will repent and come to know Jesus, because that is his only hope. And I dare say, his drugging and philandering days are over.

So what can we draw from this story? One thing is be who you say you are. But also, be sure your sins will find you out!

Numbers 32:23New King James Version (NKJV)

²³ But if you do not do so, then take note, you have sinned against the Lord; and be sure your sin will find you out.

The Masquerade

I felt the urge to write a blog post today after coming through a very strange few weeks. I also noticed that my last post was May 5th. Something about vision. Honestly I didn’t bother to read it. I am so in a different place right now.

All things are new for me. Whatever God has, I pray it will come to pass and whoever that includes (I no longer know) it will be fine because I know God knows who or what is best for me. I know that if I marry it will be to someone who has answered the ministerial call on his life. I wouldn’t have anything in common with anyone else. More than likely He will be gifted in the prophetic because that would be the kind of man who would understand me. Meanwhile, I am footloose and fancy free! But enough about that.

I had a very odd experience recently. A “woman” befriended me on Twitter and she seemed quite insistent that we chat on a regular basis. I was not so much for it, because a lot of the people I have interacted with online, have not been who they said they were. So anyway this “women” would private message me regularly. At a certain point, I felt I did not want the “relationship” to go on any further because I felt she was a man masquerading as a woman, and I felt I knew who that person was.

But again, here “she” comes insisting that we stay in touch. Well I was drawn in, but all along with these nagging doubts as to who this “woman” really was. Then, a few weeks ago, I went to a church with a friend and her Pastor called me out and gave me a prophetic word which makes even more sense now, then it did when I received it. But he was specific about a “lying relationship” in my life. Since this was the only new relationship and there were other things said that fit, I pretty much knew this person was not who they were saying they were.

Yes, “she” showed me pictures of her daughter and I saw the Facebook page, but anyone who has seen the television show Catfish on MTV knows that means absolutely nothing. People create fake lives online all the time.

So what happened? Well it started when my phone was cut off for a few days. This was God’s way in breaking the “connection” I believe. I was unable to chat with this person daily. I never really felt a genuine connection with the person, but how could I, when they were fake? I was just constantly plagued with doubts about them. Well yesterday, this “relationship” ended. It happened because for a minute, I forgot who I thought I was talking to and apparently what I said ticked him off. He hurled some insults and I decided, I will not subject myself to the masquerade/facade anymore.

Thank God for my prophetic walk and His true Prophets. I chuckle when I see people who think they can fool prophetic people. I see liars all around me and they don’t even know they have already been exposed by the prophetic. I for one, thank God I answered this call. Yes, it’s a crazy, peculiar walk, but I wouldn’t have it any other way!

Amos 3:7 New International Version (NIV)

⁷ Surely the Sovereign Lord does nothing
    without revealing his plan
    to his servants the prophets.
