I'm hiding in the dark.
I stayed up, I don't know how long I'll stay awake, but I stayed up.
Do you not stay out of light anymore?
I do.
If I sit still, then I'm out.
I don't know how long I'll stay awake, but I stayed up.
I know, that's true.
All of those dogs are wearing you out.
Oh my gosh, yes.
Hey Alana, hey Amy.
How are you doing?
Good, how are you all doing?
Good.
Eating Oreos.
I'm eating Oreos.
That's why I only like the small packages.
That's a very good idea.
I literally truly have no problem going through a big package in one sitting.
I've never done it, I'm just saying that I've stopped.
Probably could, huh?
I think Ashley froze.
Yeah, I think she did.
How are you Alana?
I'm good.
Yeah, really good.
How are you?
Did you have that guest this morning?
Yeah.
Dang, I just saw that notice and I was like, oh shoot.
Is it recorded in your group?
No, it just sounded like an interesting topic.
Yeah, well, I asked her to speak on it.
She has some really good books.
One of them is called Marked by Love.
She really likes talking about experiencing God's love.
I thought if she came on and unpacked a little more about how to bring it
from your head to your heart.
Yeah, she's great.
I think the women really enjoyed it.
Yeah.
I think it's really important to get to know them, you know?
Yeah, I'll go check it out.
Yeah.
I need to bring it from my head to my heart.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
And Ashley's good. Like we were talking about Ashley, a friend of mine,
she came in and did a little live zoom video in my group.
Like I did an interview with her.
And yes.
Yeah.
Cool. Yeah.
She's she's like kind of.
You know, talks about similar topics to you and I,
but just like a different spin on them. Right.
We all kind of have like the same content from the Bible,
but we all have our own spin on how we present it. Right. So.
Yeah.
So it's cool. Like.
Yeah, it was, it was neat.
The women enjoyed it because again,
It's nice.
Yeah.
Variety is nice.
It is really nice. Yeah.
I want to get more people to come in and I like doing those things
because it exposes people to the person who comes into the group,
which is nice. Right.
For them and like for the people in the group, it's a win-win.
Yeah, it is.
Absolutely.
Good. I'm glad it went well.
Yeah.
Okay.
Howdy. I don't know how long I can be here,
but I decided to jump on while I wasn't waiting for this other call.
Sure.
And we'll all get to see you, whoever comes with me, get to see you in March.
I know, I'm excited.
I know, me too. I am. I still need to get those details out. I am finishing my
Inner His Rest event tomorrow night and then doing a live. And then I'm starting to travel
on Saturday. I'm traveling, I think I'm traveling to Tennessee on Saturday. That plan just came up
today. So I can go visit with some friends. So I know, I'm excited about it. So I think it's like
a 13 and a half hour drive and I have to stop off in Dallas along the way. But I don't like splitting
up trips like that. I just, it's like once I'm going, I'm just like, let's just go. Let's just go.
So I would rather get up early and then just travel all day than to just travel partway and
then go to bed. Let's just go. I think that in the long run, it ends up saving a lot of time.
I'm a road tripper like that too.
Are you really? Yeah, you seem like that. See, we could road trip together,
except I do have to stop quite a bit for the restroom because I have to actually
drink lots of water because if I don't, it messes with my health. So I discovered that
several years ago and I discovered it's not worth me not drinking water. So I do it even
though it's annoying as anything. Anyway. All right. Does someone have something? Oh,
hey, Misty. How you doing? Does someone have something to start us off with tonight?
Anybody have something? I'll have to think if I have anything.
I don't know. I can start with a testimony.
Okay. Yeah. I would love to. Yeah. Okay. I was like, is that okay? So Friday night,
a lot of you wouldn't know this, but Friday night I was struggling a lot, a lot, a lot.
I just come off this five day intensive and I was like, oh my God, just feeling a lot of emotions,
feeling a lot like I'd given a lot that week. Plus we have a lockdown here. So, you know,
we had other things going on at home and I was like, oh, I just needed to cry. So I started to
cry and then I'm like, I'm really feeling like out of sorts. So I ended up writing this whole
thing about what was going on, which I sent to Ashley and I was like, ah, I'm so like,
this is so vulnerable. I don't know if I want to post it. She's like, I think you should post it.
And I'm like, all right. So I posted it in the group. Some of you might've read it.
And it was like, it was a little scary because I was putting a lot of stuff out there that I
just didn't want to say out loud. And then I did it. Thank you. And you responded, you know,
with a little note and then you did the live on Saturday and then it was just like really
powerful between Friday night and Saturday and this whole process of really letting go
and really being in rest, being in peace. You know, there's a lot of work that goes into what
I do, but I also wanted to sort of see maybe some of the monetary value come back just because
I want to be able to sort of say to my husband, we're investing money. I want to be able to bring
some back in. And I didn't want to get focused on the money. I wanted to be in a space of giving and
just loving on people. And at the same time, it's a business. So I wanted to, you know, sort of have
maybe some of that come back. And I just didn't know if it was going to happen. And I was worried
and I was scared and I was in lack and I was like all this stuff. And then I was confused because
I'm like, am I even doing the right thing? I'm learning all this stuff about the rest intensive.
And I don't know, because a lot of the stuff that I do with women focuses on the spirit and also the
soul, healing their soul, healing the subconscious beliefs and all of that. So I'm like, I don't even
know if I'm doing the right thing anymore. And I was just in this space of like, oh, not good.
So then, you know, between Friday night, and then posting that and just stepping into vulnerability,
which I get to do, you know, more and more all the time, which is actually a beautiful thing,
but it's not always easy. So I stepped into it. Ashley did a beautiful live on Saturday,
which addressed a lot of things. And it was such a God thing, because I just said to my husband,
hey, you know, do you mind if I just go up and have a bit of time to work? And that was when
you were coming on live right then I had no idea. And you came on. And I we just like communicated
a bit. And it was just like something hit me in that live, I'd have to go back and watch it again
to know exactly what it was. But something really hit me. And then I just felt so much peace. And I
went through it. Yeah, yeah. But it was like something that was it was like something that we
talked
about in there was just when the Holy Spirit just like opened me
up, right. And, and then Sunday morning. Yeah, yeah. And then
Sunday morning at church, there was a song that was sung. And it
was so beautiful. And it was called peace. And I'd never
heard it before. And I was like, it just solidified everything. I
ended up sending it to you, Ashley, right? It was a song
that I sent to you. It's just like so perfect, right?
Yeah, me too. I've been singing it like all weekend. And, and I
just, it just like everything hit me this weekend. And it was
just like, God opened me up. And I think maybe it was Sunday
night that I did the testimony for you. The one on your page.
Was it Sunday night? Maybe? And I just, yeah.
No, it was Monday or Tuesday.
Oh, maybe Monday. Maybe it was because I just felt like
I don't remember.
Yeah, I just felt this like, it was literally like peace and
rest and no more stress, no more striving, no more worrying. It
was just like something really landed. And I felt so grounded
for the first time in a long time. And it was just a really
interesting, cool feeling that I don't know, it's just like,
stayed with me. And then, and then the floodgates opened, and
I got like three new clients. And they came into my mentorship
program, which is like my high end program. And I was like,
shocked, because it just all happened. And it was just like,
once I was able to have that peace and have that rest, it was
like, God just opened these doors. And it was just like a
crazy experience. So I just had to share it because I think I'm
still like, just in awe of the the whole experience, the whole
situation and just how God has worked everything so perfectly.
And, and a bunch of other things happened to that just worked
out was only God that could ordain these things, these other
things that happened. So anyway, just just a little testimony and
you know, sharing what's going on for me.
That's wonderful. I'm so excited for you. That is huge. And, and
ladies, I don't know if y'all have noticed, I highly
recommend that if you have not seen Alana's testimonial, of
course, right now is just it's, you can use right now as an
example, right now, a bit on her, because I was just able to
catch a bit on her interview that she did with, with a lady
in her in her group today. In the end, in the end, she was
in the end, in her personal testimony that she posted in my
personal page. In my personal opinion, I mean, I had
communicated a lot because I communicate a lot with all of
y'all privately. I've communicated a lot with Alana
over the past several months, and I saw somebody different. I
have literally seen a different person since Saturday and every
single visual interaction that I've had since that I'm like,
oh, my word. It's like you've been unlocked. This is who you
really are. It's absolutely wonderful. I, Alana sent me, she
sent me a markup poll and she's like, Ashley, you were so
excited. It was like you almost wanted to come through the
video. It's like I did. I was so excited. I'm like, fair
statement. Oh, my word. So I'm thrilled. I'm so excited to see
we let go of that resistance. We start seeing who it is that we
really are. It's just like, well, okay, nothing, you know,
nothing to nothing to resist. I need a high from complete peace
I've ever seen. I have seen hours and hours and hours and
hours and hours of Alana and how we have communicated over the
past several months. I'm telling you. This was amazing. I loved
it. I was so excited. So I'm thrilled for you, Alana. And
it's because she made that between you and the Lord. Oops.
And I think my battery's wanting to die. Can't buy. And so and
you're the one who made that hard choice. So I'm absolutely
thrilled for you. I'm thrilled for you. It's tremendous
victory. So and you will have other thresholds like that. So
that'll just move you into bigger ones, bigger thresholds
of freedom. I continually do. Oh, my word. While you know,
while I'm here in the less intense of the jaw, I move into
all of these shockingly big thresholds that I cross. The
last last huge one I crossed was in December. I've crossed some
some ones in the past few weeks. But anyway, so I just we just
continually do so you've got nothing to look forward to but
better things from here.
Yeah, it's amazing. And in the in the testimony to like I was
just sharing, you know,
as much as we know God is the one working in all of this we know God is the ultimate and
you know all of that like we know all of that and I'm also thankful to you because of you know how
you have spoken to me in a way where you didn't see all the stuff as much as you saw who I was in
the spirit who I was as the daughter of God who who I you know not not the stuff that I was stuck
in at the time but like who I really was at the core and you spoke to that person and
even when I was wanting to be vulnerable and I was scared you know you encouraged me to be
vulnerable and it was so it was just helpful like the way you kind of held me through that
and like supported me through that I really appreciate and you know I know you know you
serve God and you do everything you do to serve him which is beautiful and it's like that spirit
I mean there must have you know been partially like an impartation that you
kind of give when you work with people because you know your spirit and their spirit interact
and you know it's just uh it's a beautiful experience so I also you know I know that
you you know you're not going to take any of the credit or anything because it all goes to God
but I appreciate the way that you listen to his voice the way you you know speak to people in
their true nature not who they're showing on the outside not their act not their facade
not their struggles but you speak to their spirit and it's just it's beautiful and I really appreciate
that oh that's very sweet thank you for the encouragement so um hopefully that's helpful
to to you to see that when um what that can look like maybe you're able to see from having
experienced it kind of on so that when you or others have asked the question of like so actually
when you talk about talking to somebody's spirit you know and I'm supposed to do that to my client
so how does that look like or if I'm supposed to talk to my husband like that or my child like that
how does that supposed to look like you know it's it's um it's like that so hopefully you know by
by experience that it'll make more sense because sometimes I've tried to answer as best as I could
when people ask me that question but um I mean so far the best way that they can just know is by that
by that experience of like of recognizing oh you know this is what this is what someone's doing
when they're seeing in spirit and this is how I responded so I can now interact with someone else
like that as opposed to like well I get asked all the time well what do I say like well I don't know
I mean you just shift yourself into the spirit and then you know what to say I don't know what
you should say you were always looking for what to do give me a list give me get what do I say
I'm like I don't I don't know it but it's it's um it's a bit more and uh I don't want to say
the it's not theoretical it's it's more it's metaphysical you know it's something that's a
bit it's a concept and I'm still working on trying to figure out how to calculate
um oh and then Amy I meant to tell you uh you had you'd said that you did not had not been able to
find the uh the live look on Alana's post and then look at one of my comments and I after I did the
live I went in and I added a a link to that post so that anyone who read it and was looking for the
answer to her question would know where to find it you're on mute Amy
oh you're on mute
she's getting it she's figuring there we go I I looked because you said you were going to jump
on and answer that and I was like oh I really want to hear that and I looked several times
and I could not find it so now I know where to find it yeah the other thing and y'all y'all
probably all know this but just in case you don't because it was something that I had to learn after
being in Facebook for many many years and that is right under the announcements when you start
getting into the first posts like the actual post not like a posted announcement the actual post
you'll see a little thing off to the upper left hand corner a little in the gray area
and it'll say new activity usually and with a down arrow click that and then select recent
posts and then scroll down and then it'll literally give you every single post in order
so you don't have to miss something just because it wasn't an activity because otherwise we find
like some of the new members when they're when they comment on videos from like April the April
videos pop up because it's a new comment right because it's it's so it's a more recent post so
anyway if y'all I mean it's a it's new activity so if y'all are trying to find the most recent
post to make sure you don't miss something um
And and just go just click on that and then click recent post. Otherwise, the new activity is going to show you like
All the new things people are saying the new things people are commenting on on posts about post that maybe was posted a week ago and they didn't see and then suddenly they want to respond to a lot on a lot of posts, although
They'll make a comment and I'll show up this new activity. So people don't miss miss all that. So anyway, just FYI, that's one way to
And find it and and stuff. I want to make sure to not miss you. You had. Hey, Renee, and you had sent
Read it because she said that you weren't wanting to. And in case the family. Let's see.
And let's see what you do want me to answer this. Okay. Verify for me. You do want me to answer this now. Right. Or is this for questions. This is a private question for later.
Yeah, you can answer now.
Okay, that's what I thought. Okay, so now that I know for sure.
Before I read it out loud.
Okay, let's see. Okay, so how do you shift into rest in the middle of
I guess she's frozen again.
Or am I not hearing it. Nope. She's gone. She's coming back. Amy, you're the host.
The hostess with the mostest
Oh, I get to be the host. I came on. Oh, I think I came on first or so. No, you, you are already on, but I can't
All right. Well, Amy, what do you, what are you going to talk about. You're the host.
I wanted to ask. I wanted to ask a follow up to your
Your testimony. You said something hit you and then Ashley said, oh, I'm so glad that you chose. And I was like, well, what did she choose. I wanted to hear
Okay, I think, you know, I think you might have to ask her what she was referring to. But what I think she was referring to was my possibly my choice to be vulnerable because
I had sent her the message before I posted it. And I said, I like want to tell you this, but I'm scared to post it in the group because it feels so vulnerable.
And she's like, send it to me and I'll see if it needs to be like reworded or anything, or if there's something to be, you know, not to post because she knows a lot of stuff about me. That's really personal. And so she's like, I think you should just post it as it is and there was some fear in me because just
Sharing that deep stuff for me was hard at first, but it just, you know, once you step into vulnerability and it's like you don't, you know, you're safe. You don't die. And everything's fine. Right. You just, you're okay. You can step into it again and again and again. And I feel like I
reached a new threshold in my ability to be vulnerable. And then also when she was talking about like speaking to the spirit, I feel like now when I speak to people, I don't speak to their, I used to think I wasn't speaking to them in how they were showing up, but trying to see past it. But now I feel like I can really see and interact with their spirit in a way that I couldn't before. Like I can see them in a way that I couldn't before.
Like I can see who they are in Christ more than I could, if that makes sense, which is pretty cool.
Yeah, that is.
Well, I think Ashley would say you chose rest. I think that's probably what she was referring to.
Yeah, that could have been it. It could have been rest.
Yeah, again, she'll probably be able to answer better than me. Oh, she's the host again so Amy.
Oh.
Hopefully she's working okay there.
Uh oh.
You're pretty, you're like you're cutting in and out.
You're cutting in and out.
But Ashley, it's like a bit hard to hear you.
OK, now, let me see.
Hey.
Say hi.
Hey, how are you?
Hi.
Look at me.
Yeah.
Hey, how are you?
Hi, Renee.
Hi, there.
Can y'all hear us?
We're waving merrily at you, Renee.
There's Misty.
You remember Misty?
Hi, Jonathan.
Love you.
I love you, guys.
I love you, too.
He's having cake and ice cream.
I want cake and ice cream.
Those goofy boys.
I'm curious, guys.
You guys are so cute.
Hi, guys.
Hi.
Not almond butter out of the container with a fork.
He's actually doing the real chocolate cake.
Hi!
Hi.
His schedule is so messed up.
Oh, my gosh.
He just started back to his school.
He goes two days a week.
This week.
Oh, my gosh.
He just woke up from a nap.
I don't know what to do with this kid.
He went to sleep like at 6 o'clock, and then he woke up.
And, of course, he wants to eat something, so he's having cake and ice cream.
So I don't know when he's going back to sleep.
I don't know.
Can y'all see and hear me now?
Mm-hmm.
Okay, thank goodness.
Yeah, I don't know what's going on.
I don't know.
My cellular went down to 3G.
My internet keeps cutting off.
Y'all can hear me, or am I freezing or breaking up?
I can hear you well now.
Okay.
Okay, good.
Okay, so I'm sorry, Steph.
I didn't get to finish reading your question, and I don't know if y'all know this,
but whenever you get kicked out of Zoom because your internet or whatever,
you lose the chat.
So literally there's no chat history.
So I don't know the rest of the question, so I'm very sorry.
But I can answer to what it is that I read thus far.
Is that sufficient, Steph,
or did you have something really major at the end that you need to type out
again?
I didn't hear the question.
Oh, thanks.
Okay.
I just feel like I can find it.
Okay.
Oh, thanks for resending it.
Okay.
We finally got a specialist appointment for Amy for next week,
which is good because she keeps feeling worse.
It's hard not to worry about her.
I can't get away to clear my head, let alone shift into rest.
Our entire world has been upside down for the last couple of weeks,
and it's catching me.
Yes.
Yeah, I'm sure.
Okay.
Well,
now.
What we do is we, whenever we do have, okay.
Okay. How do I, how do I come at this?
Cause I know the answer.
Just trying to think about how to word it.
The thing is that if you.
You know,
if you don't believe in God and you don't have faith in God,
you don't have faith in God.
You don't have faith in God.
Whatever God says is true about himself.
And about us is actually true. So it's believing God.
It's choosing God is having faith in God. Even when we don't believe in.
So.
That means that we don't even necessarily have to articulate for
ourselves.
What it is that we're believing in.
We, if we know what it's like to shift into rest,
We don't have to tell ourselves, okay, well, what is that? Okay.
Well, he says that I'm righteous. And he says, I'm this.
And he says, we, you don't even have to come up with words for it.
You just think, okay, nope.
That.
There's no shame and there's no condemnation.
That's the first thing that you do. No shame, no condemnation.
So that is the hot.
That's the first thing that I would recommend to do is it.
That is believing God that's believing that he is.
He says that he is and that you are, that he says, he says that you are.
And that you are.
And that you are in the fact that you agree with him,
that there's no shame and no condemnation, because if, if,
if we're looking at the situation, we're thinking.
It shouldn't be like this.
My daughter shouldn't be sick.
The situation, you know, I, it shouldn't be so loud in here.
There should not be set.
I should be able to get away to a place, my own home.
should have the situation figured out.
I should be on top of it.
It shouldn't be the way that it currently is.
Whatever we were judging the situation.
I've walked multiple people in the rest intensive, actually through this
about, you know, just like, actually, what are we doing?
The world is going crazy.
So, um, and, and, and what we, so it's important that we, that we understand
we're thinking that whatever's going on, shouldn't be that we shouldn't be
feeling the way that we feel that we should be better than this, that we
should, um, that we should be bringing order that so-and-so shouldn't be acting
how they're acting that, or my world shouldn't look like this, whatever.
We're making a judgment and we have to let go of the judgment.
It doesn't mean that those things that are happening are good and that, that
they should be allowed to continue.
We're just releasing our sense of ownership of it.
Because once we final, when we, when we, um, I was just talking about this
actually in the NRS rest event in the hour, right before this, when we start.
Uh, digging our hands into things and we start trying to control things and we
start including ourselves and we start getting tensed up, that's bringing death.
We're actually suffocating things.
What we're needing to do is actually let go when we let go.
Then then life can start coming in again, because remember it's us that
are life giving spirits that need to be bringing, that are actually bringing
something to the situation that's actually fixing it.
Um, but in order to shift into that place of rest and in order to, um, in order to.
The stagnation, stop the death, stop the restriction.
We have to let go.
We have to let go of the sense of ownership that it should not be this way.
And I am, and I'm not going to put up with it and I am going to fix it.
There, there's an element in which we do do that, but we do that in the
spirit from a place of rest, not from a place of fear, because it's
a lot harder to do it that way.
And so many, so many mothers, you know, they just battle through and
endure and they all just tell each other, Oh, just, just endure, you
know, just endure this time and whatever that does work and you eventually get
through it, everyone eventually survives.
Right.
But we're talking about how to shift into a place of rest where you're not
just trying to, um, uh, just, just endure.
So just let it, and there's this sense that just, uh, of, um, stopping judging
the situation that it shouldn't be like this, just let it be.
Remember the first time that, uh, that you remember when you, um, and I
were talking in the truck, remember everything that happened that day?
That was a wild day.
And remember what had just happened right before you and I got on, um, right.
Got on, right.
Uh, got on the call.
It is, it's like that it's, it's, it's, we should stop, you know, creating
a judgment of the situation that it shouldn't be like this and we just let
it go, um, then we can, then we've shifted into rest and we can understand
from that perspective, we can now make a more righteous, we can make a righteous
judgment from that perspective.
Cause that place is, is recognizing our identity in Christ.
And from that place, we're in power and authority, um, and, uh, in our seat
and in a seat of righteousness to be able to make a righteous judgment.
But when we're in fear and when we start locking down, because we don't
have control because we think everything is out of control and it shouldn't
be like this and I need to fix it into what it should be, we're actually
fighting, um, uh, the life that, uh, the life giving spirit that needs
to be given to the situation.
So if you finally let go, you'll, uh, we actually discover that, um, that,
that, um, things start, things start settling down, maybe not immediately,
but they do start settling down because the things around us are responding
to a son of God, including a son of God.
Who's in fear.
So, and it's going to respond.
So if it moves into a place of authority and peace, because it chooses to.
Regardless of the situation, as opposed to the situation, telling it what it
should or shouldn't be, and then us responding to it, we're like, nope,
this is how it's going.
This is how it's going to be.
And it gets to choose how it wants to manifest and how it wants to respond.
But as son of God coming into, into, um, intention of like, Hey, you know, I, I
know who it is that I am.
I'm choosing that.
I am that, and I'm going to operate from that place.
Then, um, uh, then we immediately shift into rest and then the things around us
can now have an opportunity to respond to something new that is coming from a son
of God, which is rest, peace, authority.
And over time, it'll actually start settling down and, and, um, uh, not, uh,
and, and, and, and stopping the chaos.
You had, you mentioned something else and I think you just posted something.
Let me see. Oh my word, so active in here.
Okay, so, see all the thoughts.
Yeah, so I'm just when you're talking about all of those thoughts you don't have to have all of those thoughts at once. I'm telling you what all is behind it.
So behind everything that I'm saying.
Um, this is the way it is and this is where my piece is is something I say myself a lot seems to help it on it was easy I honestly feel like a morning normal right now I know so much is so crazy right now.
I feel like I'm back in the truck but with dogs everywhere.
I know, I know.
That was so funny. Yeah, see that was the dog story the mouse under the house. Oh my word.
Anyway, so this is another, it's another opportunity, it's where we choose that, that we're not being dictated to by our environment. We are bringing, we are telling our environment what it needs to be, because we are actually always, we have a tendency
to look at our environment, we should give you an example.
Well, where did it go.
It is a tendency to look at creation and look at our environment to tell us what we need to do how we need to ask what we need to fix it because we think God's holding us accountable for this down here.
But if we just recognize who it is that we are and operate from this place, all of this will come into alignment and we actually end up telling creation what it needs to manifest.
Oh, here's another thing.
Here's a little fun new thing. Where did I do. This is a chart that I or something that I wrote last night. Okay, when I was doing it now it just came you know how, how I talked about the fact that when we talk, we needed to.
It's important that we allow that we talk out of the spirit.
And that we learn things that we didn't know we knew.
Our spirit teaches ourselves things while we talk. So, when, when creation is actually looking to us to to manifest just that in order to know what to manifest because we co create with God.
Now we're so we're co creators with and just like Adam so remember that God created the animals, and then he, and then Adam names them, they co created them together and what's the importance of naming it's not really nearly.
Naming is extremely important because naming is identifying something it's telling something what it should be is describing it, it's telling it how it should act.
So, when we join together with the Lord, and we're collaborating together with Lord that union that conception, just like between a man and a woman conceiving and giving birth to a child.
It's the same thing between God and his bride between between God being word, and here's my whole point of talking about this. God's Word, and our truth and us choosing to have faith is in his word is the union that brings conception that allows
something to manifest as creation. That is how we co create with God is we believe we believe his word, and then that will manifest something into our lives, as opposed to so that is how things get created on the earth.
So that's why whenever we're looking at our situation we're thinking oh my goodness it shouldn't be like this. No, no, we're supposed to tell creation, but it should be like it's looking to us for direction, and if we're not giving it direction.
Oh good.
God, this is helpful. If we're not, I'm not saying that, that we should take this as blaming ourselves for all the chaos around us and going see it's all of my fault. Absolutely not. That is not what I'm saying.
Understand that there's a lot that goes on in the earth that ends up affecting us that we didn't initiate right there's a lot of a lot of lies that are out in in that are out in the earth that are that are going around, and that are manifesting and creating chaos.
The sons of God, however, are over that if we can realize and recognize that that is who we are. And we are then called to, to, to overcome into free creation by identifying it.
And they did when when when God worked together with Adam, because remember that that that mankind is always the bride. So when God and Adam work together, God created the animals, Adam identified them, and then the animals became what it is that they were.
And that's what we do together. God initiates first with word, then we simply believe on his initiation what it is he's already said, we don't have to come up with all of these ideas on our own.
already said, and then that will manifest itself into creation in a particular way.
So people, that's how it gives something to the earth that it can then choose to respond
to.
And if it chooses to not come into alignment with it, God does not have patience for things
on earth that do not respond favorably to a son of God.
According to the principles that God put into place, if something does not respond favorably
to a son of God, because it is then of its own free will, in other words, the chaos of
your situation, then according to the principles that God put into place, it will result in
death.
But anyway, it has to actually see a son of God in order to be able to respond to one.
So remembering things like that, I don't mean like all of these details need to go in your
head and you need to be remembering all of these thoughts and all of these ideas.
I'm trying to, in this moment, when you're not in a situation like that, meaning like
you're just by yourself sitting there in the chair, you're not in the middle of lunch hour
with four, you know, with four homeschool girls and then two kids, two dogs running
around and phone ringing, goodness knows what else, just right now, I'm wanting to give
you context so that your soul and your body, your soul and your spirit can be absorbing
this so that when it's needed, you will already have that seed in you, which will be growing.
And so that when you need it, it will come out.
So you don't always have to be, you don't have to think about all of these ins and outs.
It's going to become part of you and you choose to own this in your relationship with the
Lord.
And then you just shift into that.
You choose to shift into that place when you're in the middle of chaos and it doesn't
take a long time.
It takes like, you know, it takes you just stopping and making an intentional decision.
This is what I'm going to do.
And you just start, and then you just, and then you just operate from that place.
And as opposed to, okay, well, I need to remember, okay, who doesn't say, who does God say that
I am?
And oh my word, I can't think.
You don't have to worry about thinking.
You don't have to, this is something that you own in your spirit.
It is who you naturally are.
So just allow yourself to be who it is that you naturally are.
Give yourself permission and don't think that you are being held accountable to being anything
else that, oh my goodness, I don't have time to do that because God's going to hold me
accountable to, you know, to, to, you know, corral this circus that's going on.
If I don't grab a hold of it quick, what that circus needs is you, you putting on your own
oxygen mask first, and it can take all of two seconds or five seconds or whatever.
It's you making an intentional choice.
This is what I want for me, because this is what the situation needs.
The situation needs me, a life giving spirit.
I am the fuel by which all of these things function.
These things are acting in chaos because the king of God is not presenting himself.
So I have permission to shift myself into that and then, and then go forward.
And literally it can be within two seconds, but it's, it's owning this, owning this for
yourself and making this choice before you're in this situation so that when you're in this
situation, it's familiar territory to know where, where it is you're going and what to
shift into.
But if you wait until you're in the middle of the situation, well then it can take a
long time because you're trying to figure it all out and you're trying to own it in
the situation.
If you own it, when you're outside of the situation, it's when you're in the, it's when
you're in the situation that you think, okay, where's that familiar place again?
Oh yeah.
I've already been there.
And boom, you, you move into it.
Let's see, is there something else we can say?
It's very big to understand, to not judge the situation, not to judge yourself, no condemnation
and no shame.
Don't, don't think that it shouldn't be the way that it is.
Just allow it to be.
Don't give up and don't give in.
Remember, but just allow it to be and, and know that you are over the situation because
the God of the universe declared that you are.
So therefore, as long as you shift into that attitude and that perspective, you will then
engage with everything appropriately.
And also let go of this.
It's not allowing me to create the environment that I desire.
It's not allowing me to get to dinner, get dinner done by such and such a time.
It's not allowing me to do, to do, to let it all go.
Let it all go.
If something doesn't happen, it doesn't happen or whatever it be.
In other words, make that choice in your mind.
And what you will discover is the same thing that we all discover when we shift into rest.
And that is that you will get more done with less effort when you let go of it than when
you try to control it and try to figure out really fast how to make sure.
or how to force the homeschooling with the girls
and the behavior of the dogs
and the amount of time that you have to get supper done
and when everybody needs to be doing everything.
The more that we control
and when we grab a hold everything
and force everything to do something
because we're trying to hold it to a particular standard,
the more chaos that's created,
the more the lack of peace
and the more unrest that we're not only operating in,
but we're imparting to creation.
We're then imparting it to the children
and we're imparting it to the dog,
we're imparting it to the atmosphere
and then it just keeps going.
So if we let everything go
and choose that we're in control
and that it gets a chance to respond to me,
then that'll help.
So, oh, no, I'm not on mute.
Can you all hear me?
Yes.
Okay, good.
Can you hear me, Steph?
Cause you were saying that
you couldn't hear part of me there
and you were who I was talking to.
Sorry, I'm looking at the chats.
Okay, good.
All right, now you can hear me.
Okay, super.
So y'all know that I do talk a lot
and I have a lot of details
and that understand that way that I teach,
I teach so that you'll own it.
I don't teach for like bullet points.
I know that I will often belabor the labor topics,
but I do it because I have noticed repeatedly
cause I've taught for,
how long have I taught?
14 years, I think.
I've taught children
and then I taught in the corporate world.
Now I do this,
that I've noticed that to teach,
to give people the context for the information
allows them to own it.
It allows them to have better understanding
from which to operate.
So it's not that you have to remember all of these details,
your soul and your spirit are gathering them,
they're absorbing them
and they're making all of the connections
so that you're not following rigid rules and formulas.
You're getting the,
it's making something that could just be one or 2D
and we're making it 3D
and then we're coloring it in
so that you can really truly understand and own it.
So that's how I teach.
I teach for understanding.
So don't get overwhelmed by thinking,
am I aware there's all of these thoughts
and all these things to think about.
If you just sit and listen,
your soul will just absorb it all
and your spirit will absorb it all.
And when you need it, it will come out.
And here's why,
it's because you already know all of these things.
We've forgotten them.
So what we're having to do is unlearn them.
This isn't my information
that I'm imparting to other people.
This is stuff that we all have access to in the spirit.
That's how I learn these things.
I've learned it through the spirit.
And so if I can learn it through the spirit, anybody can.
So anyway, just don't get overwhelmed with like the details
or think, oh my goodness,
how am I going to remember all this in the moment?
You won't, you just own it.
And then you operate in those moments,
you operate from who it is that you are
because you've chosen to own it, chosen to recognize it.
So does that all make sense, Steph?
Good, okay, it helps a lot, all right.
Good, good.
All right, I hope so.
If not, huh?
I was just gonna say that while you were talking,
this didn't understand anything you were saying.
And I was like, but I could feel it going in my spirit.
And I was like, cause you've already taught that,
I knew that.
And so I was just sitting here like,
I know it's going in and it's doing its work.
It's the word, it'll do the work.
And yeah, it's really strange.
Cause like, I was like, I wasn't even trying.
I don't know if it's cause I'm tired or what,
but I wasn't even trying to understand the words.
I was like, I don't know what she's talking about,
but I'm just letting it out of it right now.
But it's kind of good to just be checked out up here
and let it just go into your spirit.
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
So, because there are ways in which we're operating
that we don't know how to articulate for other people,
how they can live life like that,
how they can live life in the spirit,
because we just, I don't know.
I just know it's just what I do.
I don't really know what it is that I do.
And I don't really know how it is, what it is that I say.
Like when, the thing that I mentioned just a while ago
about when you talk,
to someone in the spirit that I have a very, I've had a difficult time articulating how,
how to do that, but I do it, you know, so we don't always understand with our head what it is that
we're doing. And so, but our spirit and our soul know what's going on. So because we're bigger
than what we can force through our conscious mind. So, and we need to allow the other aspects of
ourselves. We need to honor them and allow them to function to allow ourselves to be a fuller,
bigger, broader person, more well-rounded. I actually can like feel my spirit growing
while you're talking. It's really interesting, but that's, that's the way when I got saved
because I did not get saved the textbook way. And so people ask you, well, what did you do?
I'm like, I don't know. Like it was just, it just happened. I didn't, you know, do anything.
So anyway, yeah. Yeah. I love that. That's funny. Cause I was thinking about my, when I first
started going to my church, I wasn't a Christian and my pastor talks about, you know, Jesus every
Sunday, but for the first 11 months of going there, I didn't hear him mention Jesus once
until the day that I, my heart was opened. My God's spirit came into me and that was the day
I became a Christian. And that was the first day I heard him talk about Jesus. He talked about Jesus
every single Sunday that I went. And I just, for whatever reason, couldn't process that because I
was, I wasn't a Christian. Like I didn't understand God. So I wasn't thinking about that. I was
looking at the life application stuff. So I was like taking what I wanted and leaving the stuff
that didn't resonate, except the whole time it was coming into me. Like you said, right? Like it was
pouring over me. It was coming into me and I was absorbing it, but not with my head. I was
absorbing it like with my spirit or my soul or something in there. And then one day it just all
came together, but I wouldn't have known that it was just a really interesting kind of experience.
Right. That's cool. That's kind of how I got saved too. I was going to this spirit filled church and
I was Catholic, so I wasn't saved. And I just, nobody explained anything to me or whatever.
And I just kept going. I was drawn to the church. I was drawn to it. And so I kept going. And one
day it just felt, yeah, the Lord just opened my eyes to understand salvation. And I didn't come
forward and say a prayer or anything like that. And it was just me and God. So that's cool. We
have similar stories. Yeah. It's neat. It's neat to see how his spirit is like coming in, even when
we're not really paying attention with our heads. We're not thinking about it. It's just happening.
Right. Yeah. Cause we're spirit. So our spirit, um, distance before our mind and our body work.
Uh huh. Is there a way to, I know there's a lot of ways, but just, is there ways to like
grow your spirit, sensitize your spirit, develop your spirit?
Like, do you have anything to say about that? Misty's nodding. Maybe I'll talk to her later.
Yeah. Um, yeah, there are, um, uh, but I'm interested to hear what, what Misty would say.
Misty, you want to take it? Yeah. Take it girl.
Um, I, I, well, it has to do with like, um, getting in tune with the different senses of
your spirit, which I think helps, um, grow and expand, you know, relating, sorry, I'm going in
another room growing. I think it helps grow and expand relating and understanding and sensing
sensing your spirit. Um, so I went through, um, a couple of seasons where I would do this
like daily or nightly exercise where I would just, um, like tune into my spirit and ask certain
questions and just wait for responses. So like, what is my, um, spirit? Like, what is my spirit?
Okay. Hang on. Let me look at the questions. Um, but it had to do with getting into with
what is my spirit sensing? Is there something that God's sharing with me? Like, is my spirit
what does my spirit see? What is my spirit smell? Um, and then just, just really just sitting with
that for a minute, being still like seeing if I could feel something in my spirit. If I could
smell something in my spirit, if I could see something in my spirit, hear something in my
spirit and whatever that was, I would just kind of write about that for a minute. And then I would
ask the Lord to like,
concerned more to me about it. So, um, that's, that's what I
did, like regularly for a while to really kind of just become
more and more sensitive to sensing what was going on in my
spirit.
Okay, that's good.
Like, I'll tell you, I just would like say this prayer, I
call my spirit to attention in the name of Jesus, I ask you
Father to cause my spirit to commune with your Holy Spirit. I
ask you to awaken and engage my spiritual senses, lead me in
your paths of righteousness. And then I would journal, what are
the what is the setting and circumstance where the Lord is
leading me? And then I and then I would write about that. And
then whatever that then I would sit with that and say, well,
what are my spiritual eyes see in that, like, whatever, leading
me to? What are my spiritual ear? What are my spiritual
senses perceive? What is the Lord communicating to me? What
does he want me to know and understand? So I wouldn't always
answer all those questions. If there was just one that was
really coming up for me, that's where I would sit with it. So
yeah.
Okay, yeah, I've done the beginning part of that where I
call my spirit to attention. And but I hadn't really gotten into
the senses, which, you know, that sounds really good. And I
like the journaling because it brings out things that aren't up
here, lose it out of your heart, out of your spirit. Okay.
Sounds cool.
Misty.
Another thing you can do, you know, as far as like, you know,
making being like what Misty was talking about becoming aware of
what is your spirit is. And meaning that I know that you're
already aware of what your spirit is, but like doing it to
like deeper levels is, is always honoring and acknowledging
something when you think it might be your spirit. And then
you'll become more sensitive to it because it's honoring it. And
as opposed to dismissing it, doubting it, keeping it at a
distance to figure it out. Well, I don't know because then it's
not bringing it in to you. And it's not, it's not, it's not
honoring it is treating it like a stranger, it's treating it
with distrust. And so if we if we honor something, so say, for
instance, where we're just feeling like, I don't know,
something doesn't feel quite right about that, or, you know,
to recognize to honor the fact that that is, that that's most
likely, you know, the spirit. And, you know, that kind of
thing, I've noticed that that is also is really big to make sure
to always honor and acknowledge things that we think might be
the spirits. That is how I know that mine, that that I developed
my sensitivity, and I continue to use to develop it is to
honor new, new, new sensitivities that I'm
experiencing, that I'm not quite sure about, I'll choose to
believe it's spirit. And those things that actually are spirit
will stay and grow stronger. And those things which aren't
spirit will just will just fade away, they'll die, because
there's no there's no life in them. So anyway, that's the idea.
So they talked about the same thing, like whenever you want to
start being able to see angels, is to is to do that as well to
honor and acknowledge them. And, and then, and then people can
start the people that haven't just had angels present
themselves, but they're like, Oh, my word, you know, there's,
there's an angel, they, people that have started to see them
when they hadn't seen them before. They, they said that a
lot of times what they did is they acknowledged them. So and
honored them.
Yeah. So, um, so why you asked, you were asking others, other
people can answer, I am not aware of having seen one. But I
can sense, I can sense beings. I've never seen them. I can
sense evil spirits. And I can sense and I can sense what I
think are angels. When I say thinker angels, I'm choosing to
believe that they're angels. But just like Mary, that the feeling
like sometimes that there will be a feeling of something in the
corner of a room, or I'll be lying in bed, and there's this
sense of something over me, if it's not very, very evil, well,
then I'm choosing to believe that it is an angel because
angels that there's a reason why people in the Bible had to be
told by
Those do not be afraid because, so in other words, just because I'm afraid doesn't mean that it's
going to be an evil thing. But if it's, if I'm not feeling the evil, which I will feel because
I'm a son of God and I will feel if it, if it is absolutely wrong. So if I'm just kind of thinking,
oh my word, there's, I feel like there's this, I sense this presence. And then I, if unless I'm
feeling that it's like inherently evil, I I'm choosing to acknowledge that it's, that it's an
angel. So I can sense things. I can sense spirits, but, and sometimes I can sense, sense them as
like being in a specific location, but I have not seen one. I know people who've seen them.
And, and you've talked about him, described him and just been in awe, but it's been,
it's very, very fascinating. But I haven't. So other people on here are welcome to answer
if they, if they've seen one. Are other people still on here? I discerned them.
Yeah. I haven't seen, I had a vision of them around me. Oh, that's so neat.
I just don't have a times. I've only seen one once after a tornado. Oh wow. That's really cool.
Yeah. All right. Well, I think that it is time. So does anyone have anything before we jump off?
No good for the night. So I will probably, when we jump on next week, I guess I'll be in Tennessee.
I'll say hi from Tennessee. We'll jump on. I, unless I let y'all know, otherwise it's probably
going to be the normal time, you know, and of course we'll see something come up in, in Facebook.
And it'd be eight central nine Eastern. So, okay. Well, I'll see y'all all next week then. And I'll
see y'all in the group. In the meantime, love all the posts, all the testimonies, a lot of
no pressure, but if you would like to post a testimony, that'd be wonderful. It was like
this follow-up to, to that post. That would be so neat and so special. If not, no worries, because
we do have it documented in here. And eventually I am going to get all of these, these community
Q and A's posted on the group. So yes, I was talking about in, in the group. Yeah. Alana,
I was talking about in the group. You don't have to there if you don't want to, because eventually
this is going to be on there, but who knows. Can I share the one I did on your page? Sorry.
Let me see. Yeah, yeah, you can. Absolutely. You can. I, I guess that is it. So I will see all of
y'all next week then. And in the meantime, we'll see y'all in the group. So I'll see y'all later.
Y'all have a good night. Bye. Bye.
