Elevation

Have you ever felt that deep, undeniable stirring within your spirit? That sensation that tells you, 'YOU'RE ON THE BRINK' of something monumental? I've been feeling it intensely lately—a powerful internal whisper that a significant 'ELEVATION' is coming. It's not just a wishful thought; it's a conviction that my 'position is changing' and a divine 'Shift Is Coming!' For me, this isn't just about moving up in a worldly sense, but a profound spiritual ascent. It’s about being at a 'CRITICAL JUNCTURE OR THRESHOLD' in my faith journey, ready to step into a richer, more purposeful existence. I truly 'FEEL IT' in my soul, and I believe many of you might be experiencing something similar. So, how do we prepare for such an elevation? How do we engage in what feels like 'faith-based strategic planning' for this spiritual 'growth'? It's a process that calls for intentionality and deep reliance on our faith. From my experience, it boils down to three key actions: #PUSH, #PRAISE, and #PRAY. First, PRAY. This is the bedrock. When I sense a shift approaching, my first response is to lean into prayer. It’s not just asking for things, but truly communing, seeking guidance, and surrendering my will. I've learned that you often have to 'PRAY UNTIL IT IS BIRTHED'—meaning, you persist in prayer until you see the manifestation of what God has placed in your heart. It’s about building that spiritual foundation and aligning your heart with His plan. Next, PRAISE. It might seem counterintuitive when you're on the brink of something new and perhaps a little daunting, but praise shifts your perspective. Cultivating a grateful heart, even for the smallest blessings, opens you up to receive more. It's a powerful weapon against doubt and fear, and it declares your trust in the process, no matter how uncertain the path ahead seems. Praise elevates your spirit even before your circumstances change. Finally, PUSH. This isn't passive waiting. This means taking action, sometimes uncomfortable action, driven by faith. It’s about stepping out of your comfort zone, embracing new challenges, and being resilient when obstacles arise. For me, 'pushing' has looked like continuing to develop my spiritual gifts, seeking out new learning opportunities, or even just consistently showing up for my daily devotions when I'd rather sleep in. It’s about doing your part, even when the full picture isn't clear, trusting that your efforts, combined with divine timing, will lead to the elevation God intends. This journey of spiritual growth and elevation is deeply personal, but it's also a shared experience for many. It's about recognizing that you are indeed on the brink of something incredible, and with faith-based strategic planning rooted in prayer, praise, and a determined push, you can confidently step into the powerful shift that is coming for you. Embrace this season of change, for your elevation is not just a possibility—it's a promise waiting to be birthed.
