Quantum Leaps

It's been an amazing season of quantum leaps for me in my life. (God prophesied this to me) "Quantum Leaps" and when those words left the lips of the prophet who spoke them to me, they literally hit me hard in my spirit and I knew without a shadow of a doubt that change was on the horizon and I need to position myself correctly so that I could receive and release all that I needed to receive and release.

Quantum- A Large Quantity   Leaps- to spring through the air from one point or position toanother; jump: to leap over a ditch.  to move or act quickly or suddenly


I have learned so many things and have been blessed with so many things since January 1st. It's truly a season of receiving a large quantity of knowledge from the Holy Spirit and releasing a large quantity of the Old and the past so that I can now spring forth suddenly into this new place that the Lord has me.


In order to leap you have to position yourself low, bend your knees and steady your balance. 
*There's A LOT in the little 4 letter word* 
Humble yourself before the Lord and He will lift you up (James 4:10)


I've seriously been through this past few months of humbling myself and allowing God to humble me in areas that I didn't realize I needed to be humbled (and in some I've known) To set myself low and not dive into the pettiness that used to come so easy for me. To allow the Holy Spirit to replace the heart of hardness I once had and break me.. so that I could be made beautiful in His eyes. It's not an easy or even pleasant thing to be humble or to be humbled, but its a necessary part of growth in Christ, of Holiness and of the destiny and purpose that God has for me. Without first being humbled (Positioning myself Low) I wouldn't have been in the place to Leap.


Bend Your Knees - I've always prayed. Always taken time out to commune with God, but in the past few months I've turned from just praying to having a life of prayer- there's a Big difference. In this season I desire to hear the voice of God and to only move when and how He says move and that can only happen when you have a sincere relationship with God the father and when you are completely yielded to the Holy Spirit and I believe that only comes through Prayer. I realize that God wants me 
to have a deeper prayer life so that I can build up my faith and be able to handle the new season I'm in. 
1 Thessalonians 5:17 Pray without ceasing


Steady your balance-  For me, this meant balance in all areas of life. Balancing home, church, leadership duties, worship, ministry, health, everything. Having balance in my life creates a sound mind and mind that has been de-cluttered so God can put in it what He wants. Finding balance in my life means I no longer entertain the old way of thinking, old behaviors, mind sets, attitudes or relationships. Balance meant pausing and really asking God who, what, where, when , why and how. 


Who He wants me to be and who He wants in my life. What I am called to do and What needs to go so that I can fulfill that purpose. Where am I to serve, give, bless, speak, sing. When do I move, When do I stand still.  It's something- When we ask God.. He answers. That's not a profound statement, but a profound existence and reality when you truly begin to live it out and see the manifestation of the scripture Matthew 7:7-8 ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.


So now I'm leaping. Leaping into a whole new season of life and ministry. Happy and Peaceful. Surrounded by who I know without a shadow of a doubt God has placed in my life. Life givers and Faith finders full of grace, love, understanding, joy and wisdom.  Living out dreams that I've had since a child. Doors and windows opening everyday! Literally EVERY DAY!  There's something New unfolding. A new opportunity. I Leap into new relationships that are of substance and joy. I'm Leaping into ministry with people I've only dreamt I would be able to stand along side and minister with. 
Leaping into a place financially where there's not room enough to receive. Leaping into a new level of responsibility spiritually, but thankful that God trusts me to sow into the lives of His children. Leaping into a new chapter of ministry along side my husband. Leaping into my CD project, Leaping into my book. Leaping. Leaping. Leaping. Taking it all in.. All of who God is and all that He's showing me.  Not looking back- Moving Forward.  But most of all Leaping into a whole and healed woman of substance. 


This is not just for me. This is for you too. If you're ready to leap in your life, you must first humble yourself, bend your knees, steady your balance and then get ready... the possibilities are limit-less!


Love and Blessings!
