Hi Ri! You can exchange the two candles you don’t like in store for a scent you’d rather too. Spiritually, continue to wait on the Lord. Satan loves to try to deceive us through our thoughts. I know it can be discouraging to see others get what you are believing for, but trust and believe if those “things” aren’t anointed by God they will NOT succeed and prosper. What God touches will be long lasting, so it’s worth the wait! Battlefield of the Mind by Joyce Meyer is my go to read when I start feeling like what you’ve described.
Yes m’am! ❤❤ I don’t want it if Its not ordained by God cuz the joy doesn’t last! I’ll wait… And also you can’t compare what others have that you don’t bcuz you don’t know what they had to go through to get it. So i’ll mind my business! If its for me it shall be! Amen
Thank you for being vulnerable. I want to let you know (not that you don't know) that you are not alone with feeling weary at times. Especially the closet we get to the return of Jesus. Be strong and courageous! 🩷
Omg! I literally just put in my vlog last week that I came to that same realization about not feeling worthy or deserving enough of Gods blessings! Literally word for word. Thank you for sharing! It truly blessed me, not that I want us to be in this space- but it feels good to not be alone on this journey by myself! God will & has already seen us through it! That’s going to change! We are heirs of the King, we are deserving!!! It’s our inheritance!! 💕🫶🏾
Ri, I feel you on the faith chat! We are literally living the same life right now. The really high highs and really low lows are so real. I hit the literal bottom last week when I started Feeling like what God had promised was delaying or the natural looking so different than what He promised. Just to give you a spiritual perspective of what’s happening in the natural: I was explaining these feelings to a friend last week and she led me to Daniel 10! How the Lord had heard Daniel’s prayer and had already released the blessing in the spirit realm and sent an angel to deliver it but there was an opposition that did not want to see it come to pass. And so there was a literal battle in the heavens between the enemy and God’s angel to deliver the blessing to Daniel. It is the same way with us! While we wait , the opposition will try to sow all kinds of doubt and fear and distrust in God so that we dont ever turn our attention toward our TRUE adversary which is Satan. But the Lord still plans to do everything He promised, we just need to consistently push pass the opposition and know that if God said it we can count on it. He will never ever withhold any good thing from us. I bind any spirit of hindrance or delay in Jesus name. You will not die in the wilderness and you WILL make it to the other side to see the Lord fulfill His promise. Ive seen in the spirit so many specific blessings coming over your life already, but more on that later. Love you girl! Stay encouraged. The blessing is in route!
I feel like a lot of your faith talks are about your impatience on your next blessing or feeling not good enough because you didn’t receive the next thing yet. Remember to enjoy where you currently are and the blessings that you received to get you in your current position. Enjoy the new school, the new apartment, the new church, the new state, the new friends/ sisters/daughters. Be present in those things and the next blessing will come as a surprise because you to busy living life in your current blessings. Happy Holidays to you and your family.
I can understand what you are talking about and going through. I struggle with worthyness. I have always felt isolated and even when I was included. As a mother of five I must seek Gods face daily and its hard. Stay the course sister. ❤
Hey Ri! Elevation Church had some great services these past couple of weeks, starting with This is that day. I think they really talk about and go in depth what you are going through right now. I know it really opened my eyes to some of what I have been feeling lately. Praying for you and anyone else going through hard times!
Ri r u so mature with requesting to be a good listener to God! Praise God now for ur blessings to come! I remember the gap which was ok and ur teeth r looking good a blessing!
I’m in my final week of the semester with my middles… whew chile. I can’t wait for Friday! I’m trying to switch to middle school math next year so I’ll be sending my winter break studying!
I’m going through the same thing. But I am constantly reminding just because we see people getting things it doesn’t always mean that God gave it to them.
That scripture was right on time for me. I’ve been dealing with depression now for the last 3 years I know what I need to do but I just feel like I’m in this stuck place and I can’t get out but I’m going to stop there cuz I’ve already started crying writing this and that’s what I’m tired of doing. I absolutely love your videos and have been watching since day one…love you much stay a positive ball of energy for the people out here who can’t right now ❤
Girl I feel you about having to buy new outfits every week because of the color combinations my church choir chooses to wear. I have sat out many times even after going to choir rehearsal. They get upset sometimes because I am a strong alto and I know they need me. One sister offered to buy me an outfit to wear one Sunday just so I could sing. I told them if I did not have the color combination chosen, I was going to sit out. With my complexion I can't wear certain colors without looking washed out so I don't buy them like pastels. I am not going to be out of "uniform" now that we are on social media live every Sunday. I wish we could just go old school and get choir robes in the church colors of purple and white and call it a day. Then we can wear what we want and take them off when we come down from the choir stand. I have so many church clothes I don't get to wear anymore due to singing in the choir 3 Sundays a month.
Thank you for being so transparent, I will keep you in prayer. Roderick H. passed on the 17th. I want to thank the community for your prayers. I am grieving and feeling like my prayer wasn't answered.
Remember all the times God has come through for you. He was faithful then, He will be faithful now. Surrender everything especially the doubts, the feelings whatever they maybe pray for patience in His timing. Be still and know…. Remember satan is always looking for a loophole so recognize, don’t give more life to moments like this for longer than necessary. As a much older viewer I am still a work in progress slaying and crucifying to be aligned, remain aligned to His will and will continue until He calls me home and I am okay with that because as my best friend He is with me, there is always room for Him. He is our light in the darkness. It will be a privilege to raise you and concerns up in prayer. Blessings🙏🏾
Instead of thinking about what you are waiting for, start surrendering unto God every area of your life. I remember a time I literally felt like God had me in boot camp, He would show me one area to fix and I would get through that and then it was another and so forth, but that was due to his Will for my life and he had to prepare me for it, I didn't like it one bit but I was sooo grateful in the end that he cared enough about my present and future to take time out of his very busy schedule to focus on me. Not your Will but God's Will be done, let that be your prayer. That's how we live our best life by surrendering our Will to him and then he begins to unfold what he has for you. Excuse my long comment, I hope it's helpful:)
Hey Rianna, so grateful for your faith talk. Being human and waiting on God is the hardest, not knowing what to pray and ask for is hard as well. But in His perfect timing He will give you what you need sis. Stay prayed up. God got you. Also, them babies...lol. When he said fish don't die, I almost lost it. Poor babies, Lord be a fence. 😂😂😂 hope you have a good rest of the week and may God give you the strength, peace and comfort to get thru this week and next week sis. Get you some rest. And thank you for the scripture. ❤❤
Hi Ri ! I hope this comment finds you well. I wanted to chime in on what you were saying in your mini faith talk. I believe you answered your own question as to why you don’t see what you’re praying for .The scripture says when we ask anything in His name believing that we shall receive it it shall be ours. So when we pray, we must believe .The scripture also says a double minded person is unstable in all of their ways, and that he or she should not think that he or she shall receive anything from the Lord .So we have to be stable in our stance and in our belief in what God has said, we can’t waiver in our belief,. That is the reason why a lot of prayer has not been answered it’s not that God doesn’t want to answer is that we don’t believe that we are worthy to receive. I believe God is working on you totally believing and trusting in him. That’s why it feels like you’re being stretched. That’s why it feels like you’re being punished. That’s why it feels like it’s heavy because you have to surrender totally in your belief on him. Trust me sis you are not alone God is trying to get his people to a place of totally and completely relying upon him and taking him totally and completely at his word, because what is coming on the earth we gotta know our God we gotta believe our God and we gotta know who we are in God, I pray these words encouraged you. God bless.!!
Hi Ri! Your class is hilarious had me rollin what a great teacher you are. I just also want to add stay true to your faith never waver it's all God's Timing, Will, Plan and Glory Not Yours.. ride this storm because your promises are coming. Hebrews 11:1 is a scripture that is encouraging my faith for 2024.❤
Praise the Lord, sis…..You’ll know when God separates you vs when your flesh decides to isolate you because if God needs to speak to you, your mind will be open, focused, and soiled, therefore, prepared to hear from him, but if you take it upon yourself to separate from your fellow sisters and brothers Satan who is crouched at the door waiting to play with your mind, will have you depressed, stressed, and weighed down. It’s like the nature shows, when the Antelope or Rams are alone, that’s when the Lions, Hyenas, etc attack, but when they stay with the pack/herd, they’re safer. Praying for your emotional, spiritual, and mental strength in Jesus mighty name! 🙏🏾
Indomie Hot & Spicy is my fav instant ramen. I usually serve it with lime & extra firm tofu. And the broth is so flavorful I boil extra noodles to use up the broth.
Also Ri be careful with Temu there was another influencer who was sponsored by them and people were getting mysterious charges and having to change their card numbers and all that her name is Faye in the city
