The Breaking of Walls
Have you ever pushed your way through a blinding bush to find, on the other side, a breathtaking view?
That is what it is like to push your way through the brick wall that holds you back from accomplishing your directive of growing into your ministry. It can be hard, changing our mind about our authority to do it, but on the other side of it is a breathtaking hope for life on this earth.
The one thing that is imperative and I want for “Women of Vision” is to push through that brick wall standing between you and your “Upward Call of God” to grow into the ministry you where born for.
Unanswered Questions form the Bricks
From the time I realized I was called until now the one thing (not the only thing) that has hovered over me, and been repeatedly voiced to me is that my ministry does not have church backing therefore it cannot exist.
This wall erected by other first, than reinforced by me (unwittingly) over the years, has been my wall to break down over the past 5 years as I grow my Marketplace Ministry.
For some reason, in my ignorance, I didn’t question it. AND I was never able to get church backing either. Every single time I attempted to grow my ministry under the umbrella of an established church, it was removed by someone who was threatened by it or did not care much about its work.
Break the Wall DOWN one Brick at a Time
You have a wall and it just may be that you don’t think you have the gift of leadership, or you don’t know your talents and skills can be repurposed into the Kingdom. Or maybe it is because you have not spent time enough with the Lord to garner His strength to fight for what is already yours.
He has called you into His Kingdom to encourage and equip it. He has allowed this wall for you to gain the strength to tear it down as you build up your ministry.
Not all at once, but one brick at a time. (I can hear the sigh)
One false directive at a time.
One intimidation at a time.
One scare tactic at a time.
Don’t be scared or weary of it, because every brick has its own strength and with it a forgiveness for both you and your adversary. The Lord is going to be with you to equip and empower you with each brick you disassemble and each person you forgive for installing that brick.
Start your journey with the Lead or Bust Workshop. Take one question off the table. “Am I really called to lead?”
Once that is off the table all bets are off. Go break down that wall, one brick at a time!!!!!
