Many times we like to say, "Not yet LORD." Well then, when is THE RIGHT TIME? Remembering when I was 19 years old, my mother and her best friend told me, "You're going to teach Sunday School" which is in one of my books. I'll let you know which one. Anyway my response was "No, I'm not ready for that." And their reply was "Come as you are." To me they got it twisted cause I needed to be more godly. Partying was my routine since loved to dance and for many our hang-out was Big Daddy's on 119th Street. Y'all remember that? Great time dancing all night until the clock on the wall says, "That's all." Anyway, at some point started hanging out on Fridays and during the week, instead of Saturdays. I say "Damage control" since I taught the children who could not read—from the picture card. This Blog focuses on as well as, tells of Jeremiah's response when the LORD called him as a prophet to the nation of Judah as well as their conversation; inspires confidence to trust God and more!
Think about making you favorite meal or desert. The ingredients and seasonings must be right for the flavor, taste and look. You got to Stir it up, just right and know what and when to add. I'm not "The cook" but, know about taste. Therefore the Stirring has to be right to avoid lumps, poor mixing-poor tasting, the batter flops and the presentation is ugly! We know what happens after that. I remember when the family stopped me from bringing potato salad to gatherings. Therefore blog titled, STIR ME UP is taken from Ezra 1:1 "Now in the first year of Cyrus king of Persia, that the word of the LORD by the mouth of Jeremiah might be fulfilled, the LORD Stirred up the spirit-heart of Cyrus king of Persia, that he made a proclamation throughout all his kingdom, and put it also in writing." This blog talks about the prophesy to Stir up the spirit, the heart of Cyrus was declared by the Prophet Isaiah 150 years prior to Cyrus' birth-God's plan and more. A Must Read!
