I am my FATHER’s favorite child!!!!!!!

For months now, I have been professing to anyone who would listen that I am God’s favorite child and if they need me to pray for them I would because My Father hears my prayers because I am His favorite child.

(Monday) This week I truly felt like I was his favorite. Last week I wrote, I wanted to have that NOW Faith. That faith where whatever I asked for (God Willing) would manifest quickly. For weeks prior to writing it, I had been speaking I was going to take my oldest to Vegas for her 21st birthday; as it started getting closer to her birthday it started looking like it was going to be impossible. The day I posted about having NOW faith, I found out my job assignment would be ending in 10 days on July 30th. I didn't sweat it. "I’m excited to see what God has for me after this assignment."

That afternoon I decided to test out my NOW Faith, I called the hotel in Vegas and paid my deposit for a room the week of my daughter’s birthday, knowing I would be out of a job that week. I called my daughter and told her we were going to Vegas. Each morning when I got up, I thanked God for my NOW faith and for allowing me to be his favorite child. Some days go by, and now it’s the Monday of my last week at work. I’m sitting at my desk starting to waver about this Vegas trip and praying to God. "Lord please don’t let me have to tell Babygirl we can’t go." I needed God to show up in a big way. Later on that day, my manager calls me into her office and she tells me that they’re extending my contract until the end of August and possibly into September. She also blessed me with something else, but unfortunately I can’t share that. Just know that God showed favor on me. Vegas here we come

(Wednesday) My oldest daughter who is an actress, singer, and dancer got a call about an audition at Universal Studios for their Halloween Horror fest for the month of October; she had worked for them before. Because it’s an open call, she decided to take her sister. The morning of the audition, I woke up thanked God for the opportunities, and the doors He was opening for myself and my girls. I knew deep down in my heart that my youngest was going to get it because like I said before I’m God’s favorite. Needless to say both girls got it. This was the youngest first audition ever and she nailed it. The Knowles sisters better move over there’s some new siblings in Hollywood.

(Thursday) This week has been filled with blessings My oldest daughter calls me and tells me she has to be on set at Warner Bros that evening. We’re rejoicing! That’s more birthday money!! We have been praying to be able to celebrate the whole month of August because you only turn 21 once! Well, they liked my daughter so much they asked her to come back and film some more Friday. More birthday money!

The very same day at lunch with my coworker, I put it out there that since I am writing a screenplay and I want to be a producer, it’s time I worked behind the scenes on a set. I need some hands on experience, and as a talent manager it doesn’t hurt to know how it all works. We get back to the office, and a hour later she comes to me and asks if I would want to work as an Production Assistant on a web series on Saturday. The only thing is that I wouldn’t get off until about 2am! I don’t have a car right now and I didn’t want to do public transportation that time of morning, so I had to decline. I figure if it was God’s will, it would have worked out. 20 minutes later my coworker comes back over, "If the producer gives you a ride home, would you be able to work?" Of course I said "yes" because it was clear that this was God’s will and once again he was showing me his favoritism.

I see nothing wrong with proclaiming to be God’s favorite. By knowing that I am my Father’s favorite, it helps me to have that extra confidence in speaking what he said was mines into existence, no matter how big or small. Are you acting like God’s favorite or His stepchild? :)

Use me Lord

I can’t just pick out one scripture so I say read the Book of Daniel.

Last week I had this weird dream and when I awoke God told me to read the Book of Daniel. I read the whole book and I was still left confused about the dream. As days passed, my spirit kept going back to how Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah never wavered in their love of the Lord. They stood up with CONFIDENCE in what they believed. They knew without a doubt God had their back. They were thrown in the fire and the lion's den and they never once wavered. Are you willing to do the same? I am. The devil has thrown some serious things my way and I continue to stand and Love my Lord. If it wasn’t for my Lord I would not be here today with a sound mind. It is by His grace that I have been able to go through sexual, verbal and financial abuse (the list goes on) and still I have love in my heart and I continue to stand.

God is taking me to that next level, which is why he had me read the book of Daniels. I no longer want to be meek in the Lord; I will walk in CONFIDENCE. I want to know that when I rebuke the devil in Jesus name, he has to flee as soon as the name Jesus comes out of my mouth. I want to know that today when I say my loved ones are healed in Jesus name, they will be healed today not tomorrow or next week. In the past, many times I would pray or take a stand Lord please heal so and so or Lord please send a financial blessing and 10 minutes later I’m worrying about what I just turned over to God. I am no longer that person. God has shown me through Daniel that when I take a stand, He has my back.

We are living in times where the devil and his little friends are wreaking havoc on this earth. God is rising up His soldiers, the children society had written off, to take a stand and know that we have the power to rebuke the devil in his son’s name “Jesus”. I don’t have a doctorate in theology, I don’t know the Bible by heart, I don’t always go to church etc., but I do know I love the Lord and I love my neighbors as I love myself. I do know I live for the Lord and not for man. I am the type of soldier God is calling on because he knows it’s coming from the heart and not the flesh. Daniel’s love for the Lord came from the heart, not from what he was taught in some school or church. That's another blog “Church Folks” 

I am a person who goes by person's actions, not what they say; I am a show me person. A few years back, my daughter asked me, how can I ask them to stay virgins until marriage when I myself couldn’t sustain from having sexual relations outside of marriage. I couldn’t answer because she was so right. Our actions speak louder than our words. I am happy to say I have been celibate for almost 4 years. God wants us to stop talking about how much we trust and love Him. God wants our actions to show that we trust and love Him.

Just in case you haven't heard it today God loves you and I love you :>

Be Still

Psalm 37:7 "Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; do not fret when men succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes."

Psalm 46:10 "Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth."

Exodus 14:14 "The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still."

Today my blog is short because I am being obedient to the Holy Spirit. God has put it in my Spirit to Be Still and not write much. A lot of words are not needed today. Sometimes God just wants us to be still and wait on Him. It’s so amazing how these two little words “Be Still” can be so hard to accomplish. Be Blessed and Know that God loves you and I love you.

It’s okay to have a Funky day :(

Matthew 26:39
Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, "My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will."

In Matthew 26:39 – 43 (shows that) even Jesus had a funky night.

Most days I am a very positive person. Each day I am aware and very careful what I speak. I am so careful that I started a challenge with my girls. Whoever speaks negatively has to give 15 sit ups, jumping jacks and 4 sets of around the corner. So far I must say I am starting to look trim. They catch me every time! Sometimes being positive all the time can be a heavy burden. We need to be able let loose once in a while.

I remember once at work a coworker really ticked me off. I went to my director and vented. After I finished, I apologized to her for not being professional. The director laughed so hard. She was happy to see that I was human and that I wasn’t some Stepford woman.

A few years ago, God gave me a scripture and a vision. Since then I've had confirmation after confirmation that it will come to manifest. Little by little this vision is coming to pass. Each morning I get up hoping that God will speed things up and this will be the day that I see that vision manifested BIG TIME! As the day goes on, I don’t see it. Again I get up the next morning and say "Ok Lord. Today is that day." After a while, not seeing what God has put in my heart starts making me a little funky. Why does it seem as though when you’re waiting for God to move in your life that He moves in everybody else’s life but yours? :) Is he testing me to see if I will be happy for that person? I’m not going to lie, sometimes I’m not! Sometimes I’m like a child and want mine now and don’t want to understand that maybe it was that person’s time, and it’s not mine's yet.

This morning I had my tantrum… I text my mom hoping she would call me back, and she did. All it took was her to ask me how I was doing to set me off. I thank God for my mom. Even through my text she knew I needed to vent. If my girls had been around and heard me, I would have been giving at least 100 sit ups. After my tantrum, I started to count my blessings and the funk began to lift. I am once again not just waiting, but expecting my vision to manifest any day now. Each morning I will continue to wake up with an expectation. This morning showed me just because I was having a day it didn’t mean I doubted. There’s a difference. I didn’t doubt the vision God gave me, there’s a knowing in my SPIRIT that vision will come to pass. It’s just like a child waiting for Christmas morning to come. Some days that child is going to go to his or her parent and ask if they could open their gifts right now. That was me today "Lord can I have it today? Why can’t I have it today? I’m so ready to receive it today!"

I’ll probably have another tantrum, but what child doesn’t have tantrums with their parents? :) It’s like my Godmommy told me "It takes more time to build a Mercedes than it does a Toyota," and what God has put in my heart is a Mercedes vision….. ILuvMeSumU
