Pitfall When Journaling God's Voice With an Idol in Your Heart - My Big Mistake

Practical Examples of How to Live Out God’s Word // Episode 024

Let’s talk about how to activate the power of God’s word by using everyday moments in life to practice being in the presence of the Lord. As we’re journeying through life, we're learning how to put what we’ve read in His Word into practice which is teaching us how to walk with God and how to be more like Christ each day. My hope is that we will learn to view negative, unwanted emotions and situations as an opportunity to activate God's Word so that we can access more of His grace and attributes.  We are not bound to negativity; we are yoked to Christ and within Him is everything we need for success and godly living. When we build a life upon Jesus, who is our Rock, we can overcome anything. Hard times will come but if we practice becoming His word today and everyday, we can better prepare for tomorrow. May we build according to the pattern and the blueprints that was shown to us in His Holy Word. Join me as I share my testimony of how I applied these truths to my own life and how the Lord became a safe refuge when troubles arose. 🗝 Key Scripture References: 📖  ‭‭‭‭Matthew‬ ‭7:24-25‬ ‭NLT‬‬ “Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock. Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse because it is built on bedrock.” 📖  ‭‭James 1:22 ‭NLT “But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves.” - Stay connected to A Journey of Discovery: Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3fm53ozikBV8Q4nlDR95QQ Follow on Facebook: https://Facebook.com/ajourneyofdiscovery.tjfrasier Follow on Instagram: https://Instagram.com/ajourneyofdiscovery.tjfrasier Follow on Tiktok: https://vm/tiktok.com/ZMeNdMQH9/

How to Live Out God's Word // Episode 023

Psalm 119:105 NIV reads “Your Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.” I also love how Brian Simmons words it in TPT “Truth’s shining light guides me in my choices and decisions; & the revelation of your Word makes my pathway clear.”  We can clearly see from this scripture that God’s Word becomes a navigational tool guiding us physically, emotionally and mentally in life so that we can reach the desired destination that He’s already mapped out for us. But in order to do this, we must begin to live out His word in our normal everyday lives so that the transformative nature of His word can work in us and through us. May we search for opportunities in our everyday life and use this as training ground for spiritual growth and development.

Meditate on it day and night so you will be sure to obey everything written in it. Only then will you prosper and succeed in all you do.” 📖  ‭‭James 1:22 ‭NLT “But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves.” - Stay connected to A Journey of Discovery: Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3fm53ozikBV8Q4nlDR95QQ Follow on Facebook: https://Facebook.com/ajourneyofdiscovery.tjfrasier Follow on Instagram: https://Instagram.com/ajourneyofdiscovery.tjfrasier Follow on Tiktok: https://vm/tiktok.com/ZMeNdMQH9/

God’s Words Are Life In Difficult Times

My goal these past six weeks was to position and equip you to hear God’s voice and to stress the importance of relationship with God.  In this video, I explain the reason behind this.   I want you to know that the focus of this channel isn’t to teach others how to hear God’s voice but to share my journey of discovering God and who I am in Christ. As I mentioned before, there was a time when I was once the only believer in my household.  This road was not an easy one but once I learned how to hear God’s voice, though I felt alone at times, I wasn’t because He was with me in every way. His words are the only words that can breathe life into your situation,  fill you with hope and comfort you in times of hurt.  In life you will encounter difficult circumstances, this my friend is guaranteed.  BUT you will also realize that He has given you everything you need to overcome.  All you need to do is look to HIm.

I have overcome the world.” 📖  ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭7:24‬ ‭NIV‬‬ “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock.” - Stay connected to A Journey of Discovery: Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3fm53ozikBV8Q4nlDR95QQ Follow on Facebook: https://Facebook.com/ajourneyofdiscovery.tjfrasier Follow on Instagram: https://Instagram.com/ajourneyofdiscovery.tjfrasier Follow on Tiktok: https://vm/tiktok.com/ZMeNdMQH9/

Pitfall When Journaling God's Voice With an Idol in Your Heart - My Big Mistake

When learning to hear God’s voice, we want to feel confident that we are receiving a pure word from Him. In order to do that, it's imperative that our hearts are clean before Him with no idols or hidden agendas within it.  Otherwise, we may be seeking for our own desires to be fulfilled while masking it as a word from the Lord.  Today, I wanted to share a past mistake I made and how my idol was me, my career and my desires. An idol is anything we make bigger than God....and in that situation, I placed my plans and happiness over the will of God. I learned a valuable lesson from that mistake and it taught me the importance of how to posture my heart when seeking guidance from the Lord. In the end, my hope is that we will follow the example of Jesus and say no matter how difficult it will be, “Not my will Father but Yours be done.” Then and only then will we be able to hear God’s voice clearly. - 🗝 Key Scripture References: 📖  ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭20:3-4‬ ‭NIV ‬‬ “You shall have no other gods before me. “You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below.” 📖  ‭‭Luke‬ ‭22:42‬ ‭NIV‬‬ “Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done.” - Stay connected to A Journey of Discovery: Subscribe on YouTube: https://youtube.com/channel/UC3fm53ozikBV8Q4nIDR95QQ Follow on Facebook: https://Facebook.com/ajourneyofdiscovery.tjfrasier Follow on Instagram: https://Instagram.com/ajourneyofdiscovery.tjfrasier Follow on Tiktok: https://vm/tiktok.com/ZMeNdMQH9

Positioned to Hear God’s Voice

Positioned to Hear God’s Voice: What Does God Want to Say to You? Over the past four weeks, we discovered that we are wired to hear the voice of God, the various ways God speaks and what His voice sounds like.  Now it’s time to put into practice what we’ve learned so that we can get in position to hear from our Heavenly Father. Key Scripture Reference: 📖 Proverbs 8:34-35 “Blessed is the man who listens to Me, watching daily at My gates, waiting at the posts of My doors. For whoever finds Me finds life & obtains favor from the Lord.” 📖 Habakkuk 2:1-2 “I will climb up to my watchtower and stand at my guardpost. There I will wait to see what the Lord says and how he will answer my complaint. Then the Lord said to me, “Write my answer plainly on tablets, so that a runner can carry the correct message to others.” 📖 John 10:27 “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them and they follow Me.” Stay connected to A Journey of Discovery: Subscribe on YouTube: https://youtube.com/channel/UC3fm53ozikBV8Q4nIDR95QQ Follow on Facebook: https://Facebook.com/ajourneyofdiscovery.tjfrasier Follow on Instagram: https://Instagram.com/ajourneyofdiscovery.tjfrasier Follow on Tiktok: https://vm/tiktok.com/ZMeNdMQH9/
