Don't talk about it ...be about it.

Todays blog is based on the following scripture:

The Parable of the Talents — Matthew 25:14–30)

Most of the problems we deal with in the world today...and in our personal lives...are root-level spiritual issues.

You're sitting there wondering when your finances will finally change.

You're sitting there wondering when God is going to heal your marriage.

You're sitting there wondering when you’ll finally walk out of this wilderness season.

You're sitting there stressed out, wondering how you're going to cover rent, your mortgage, or property taxes.

And while you’re waiting on a sign, God is waiting on you.

The Trap of "One Day"

We have to stop waiting for some perfect, imaginary moment to take action. Listen to the internal dialogue so many of us carry around:

"One day I'm going to start that business."
"One day I'm going to prepare for marriage."
"One day I'm going to travel and preach the Gospel."
"One day I'm going back to school."
"One day I'm going to buy a home."
"One day I'm going to truly live for Christ, but I can't right now because I have to secure this money first."

So you hoard your time, your energy, and your gifts, telling yourself you’re just saving up for that "one day."

You are only fooling yourself. That "one day" will never..and I mean NEVER..come if you don't start moving today.

I Know, Because I Used to Live There

I’m not speaking to you from a place of having it all figured out. I don't have all the answers. But I ain't where I used to be...and if you are truly walking with Christ, you can see the difference.

My entire thinking had to change. I refused to stay in that old mental trap.

Back then, I knew I wanted to be an entrepreneur. I knew the 9-to-5 scene was getting old and played out, but I had no idea how to change my reality. So what did I do? I sat around daydreaming. "One day this, one day that..." Every time I left a job, I just dropped more resumes, bouncing from one place to another without ever stopping to ask God what His will was for my life.

I sat there fantasizing while watching everyone else on Instagram and YouTube live out their dreams. I told myself I was too old, too underqualified, and that I didn't have what it took to be successful...only to realize later that true success comes from God.

Moving When It Storms

Success happens when you keep putting one foot in front of the other.

It’s easy to move when it's sunny, beautiful, and everything is going your way. But real faith requires you to keep walking when it’s storming, raining, and hailing outside. You have to keep pushing even when people slam doors in your face, tell you you're not good enough, or claim you’ll always be struggling because your family struggled.

There are people out there right now who do not want you to believe in yourself, and they definitely don't want you to believe in God. Why? Because they can clearly see that your faith is moving mountains. It is working in your favor, and they are terrified of what will happen if you have the audacity to keep going.

Isn't it wild that your opposition can often see your future clearer than you can?

That’s why the fight is so intense. People feel threatened when they see you walking in anointing. They try to mimic and copy what you’re doing because they see it working for you, but what they don't understand is that God graced YOU for that assignment.

When people try to copy your calling instead of seeking God for their own, they end up frustrated. They are trying to be a model when God called them to be a doctor. They’re struggling because they’re trying to carry out an assignment that was never assigned to them in the first place.

Anyway like i was sayin...

You cannot multiply what you refuse to plant in the ground.

God has given every single one of us a seed...even if you're sitting there right now broke as a joke. You still have something to plant. That seed is your gift, your talent, your skill, your unique personality, and the distinct way God built you to communicate.

There are people watching you right now. There are people whose breakthrough is tied to your obedience. They are sitting in circumstances just like yours, similar to your or circumstances they will later find themselves in..., and they need to see proof that it can be done through faith. They may never leave a comment or reach out, but best believe they are watching how you apply your faith...and they are watching to see what God does next in your life.

Keep going.

Not to prove anything to the world, but to stay obedient to God, to please him, to make Him proud... I've had compliments from both God and man...I can tell you from EXERIENCE, that the compliments I get from God exceed my expectations, they are top tier,,,they surpass them all...My spirit man expands...my life expands...i elevate...It makes me want to become more like my heavenly father, Jesus Christ. It's the definition of understanding the assignment here on earth.

So stop holding onto the seed God been telling you to plant for quite some time now...until you do you will be at a stand still...going stale like bread... i had to walk under the hot florida sun just to get to a libary so I could write this blog...didnt want to come, no money, no food, no support, no car and yet God tells me I got work to do and to keep going...i honestly wanted to fall down to the ground and throw a tantrum like a small child.

But allowing this dead seed sit in my hand while I wait for "better conditions." will never germinate or multiply as long as I refuse to drop it into the soil.

When everyone else is enjoying the harvest and eating good, do you really want to be sitting there empty-handed, watching them eat? Begging for a piece? No.

So plant the seed today. Put your hand to the plow, cultivate the ground, tend to your OWN GARDEN...come rain or shine.

One of my favorite scriptures is the following:

John 12 24

"Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit."
