Why can't I quiet my mind and focus but have peace in everything that is happening?
Clutter is to fill or cover with scattered or disordered things that impede movement or reduce effectiveness.
For the last two to three weeks I have been in this very weird space. I really wish I could formulate with words exactly what it was but I can't. My mind felt CLUTTERED where I could not focus on anything for longer than not long enough.
I would pray for the Lord to remove the spirit of distraction and allow me to focus but I wasn't able to shake it. Then it hit me it wasn't the spirit of distraction at all. It was was what I like to call the calm before the storm. I had this feeling of peace over me that everything was ok but as if I wasn't handling the moving parts around me the best way I should have.
After two almost three days of not journaling at all because I just felt like I couldn't get a grip of what it was I was feeling and trying to figure out if I was battling depression or feeling overwhelmed the Lord instructed me to lock myself away and have time with him and he showed me a vision. It was of me sitting on the beach watching as a big storm was forming. Destiny my love this is the calm before the storm. Embrace it. You are right where I need you to be doing what I want you to be doing. So embrace it.
Why is it in the state of rest or in my silence that my children immediately feel as if they have done something wrong or as if they aren't doing enough? Now, if you know you aren't doing what I told you to do that is different. But, rest is a good thing, order and organization is a good thing. Baby girl the guards are turning and I am about to call you to the frontline for spiritual war so I need you to be prepared. So embrace this time right now because the turn will be fast and if you aren't intentional in this moment you won't be as prepared as I need you to be.
Literally, the next week he led me to perform deliverance on someone right in a session, instructed me to do a very rigourous running routine while speaking in tongues to "build my endurance", be instructed to perform a baptism and a ton of other things. So sometimes when things are moving but quiet at the same time it is the calm before the storm. So EMBRACE IT! God is doing something powerful in this season and he wants as many of us to be prepared but too many of us are busy bodies and don't know how to embrace the calm before the storm. It was so strange for me to have so much on my plate but because of the instructions God gave me prior to this season for me to still be able to have rest and peace even with the constant movement. Learn the ways of your father, in getting to know him you will learn that The world has instructed us to work super hard, to be busy, and always in motion but he is everything opposite of the world. He just wants you to BE STILL and know that he is God. Psalm 46:10
So are you in the calm before the storm but choosing to work through it instead of Rest? Hit reply and let me know.
