They say the teacher is quiet during the test but what if you have a question? What if you need clarity? What if you feel lost and confused and you're just not sure what to do? This is apart of the process and it doesn't feel good. Social media will have you fooled thinking everyone is "living their best life" but honestly, a lot of people are lying, posting while depressed and confused. We've become a society that cares more about what people think than what God say's about us. It's sad what people will lie about things just to get people to like them. When you're being real with yourself you will realize that you are nothing without the help of God and you will live a life according to his will not your own but what do you do when you feel stuck? What do you do when the bottom of the bottom falls out and you feel attacked on every side. While on this journey of releasing the Queen within test will continue to challenge you and you've got to surrender to the process. It's not easy being the Queen but you've got to adjust your crown as many times as needed. When you feel hopeless and helpless you have to know that you can call out to God for help and he will hear you. I want to share with you three reasons why it's so important to stay connected to the one who crowns you and to boldly ask for help!
1) God is the source!
Absolutely nothing can be done on this earth without God. He is the source of everything! We can try to make things happen in our own strength but those attempts will not be successful. Everything we need is found in God and everything else is a resource. God has everything we need but are we asking him for what we need? Are we praying in faith or in doubt? We have to remember in tough times to keep our eyes on God and trust him to provide everything we need.
2) Ask, Seek and Knock!
We have not because we asked not! Why are you asking everyone else for help but God! God is the source so why do we go to resources when we have a direct connection to the source? Are you speaking to God through prayer on a consistent basis or do you use him like an emergency kit? God is a good father and just like a good father when we ask he provides according to his will. Have you prayed about it instead of talking or posting about it? Are you waiting on God or are you jumping ahead of him trying to find a solution to a problem only he can fix? What have you been asking for? God will grant you to desires of your heart when you delight in him! Do you really trust God's plans? A delay is not a denial we have to learn to trust God's timing and know that all things are working for us even the things we cant see. We must keep the faith.
3) God has the solution!
As we remember that God is the source and seek his will we have to remember he has the solution because he is the solution! God has the answer and if we seek him and just ask he will provide the answer! I have so many situations where I had no idea how things were going to work out and God stepped in and gave the answer! We can not look to resources or try to do things in our own strength because that's temporary. God is enteral when he speaks it's finale! No one can stop the blessings of God from happening in your life but you! You have to trust that he will provide an answer. You have to have patience and get in proper position to hear from God. In order to get the answer, you may have to log off social media and open your Bible, go on a fast and take that first step without having all the answers but trust me when God sees your faith it will provoke him to answer.
I don't know what situation you may be facing but I know with God's help you can overcome anything! You're not waiting on God he is waiting for you! Life has its way of attempting to knock us down and sometimes we fall hard but in the midst of it all God can and will work everything out for you. Maybe you need clarity about a relationship, your career, your business, your family or just in life connect with the one who crowns you! God will crown all of your efforts with success when you put him first! Don't allow this situation to cause you to get weary. Just ask God for help and don't be ashamed of it. A Queen seeks wise counsel and God's wisdom is so much better than man. Keep the faith, keep your head up and adjust your crown.
