This is Day 2 from the Journal Challenge:
Ah! It’s DAY 2! Can you believe that we have about 17,000 WOMEN joining us?? 6,000 women joined us in just 24 hours! Wow! This is going to be a powerful 21 days. The word for the day is commitment.
Will you remain COMMITTED to what you said you would do?
Will you remain COMMITTED to giving Jesus 1% of your day or 1 hour in quiet time?
Will you remain COMMITTED to that job that God sent you to when you don’t like it?
Will you remain COMMITTED to your marriage even if you stopped liking your spouse?
Will you remain COMMITTED to the church that God sent you to even if you got offended?
Will you remain COMMITTED to God even though you aren’t happy with your life?
You may be thinking, “Heather, it’s been hard for me to commit to things in the past. It’s just hard.”
Well, I have news for you.
2 Corinthians 5:17 says “Anyone who belongs to Jesus Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone and a new life has begun!”
COME ON JESUS!!
You are NOT YOUR PAST!
YOU are NOT WHO THEY SAID YOU ARE!
You are NOT WHO YOU USED TO BE!
YOU ARE A NEW CREATION BABY!!!
In Jesus, your NEW LIFE HAS BEGUN!!!! So, if you just got that revelation today, walk in that revelation right now.
Maybe everyone around you got divorced but you will not. Maybe everyone else you is having sex outside of marriage but you will not. Everyone around you is partially living for Jesus but not you.
You ain’t playing anymore. You cannot change people around you but you can change you.
Even in knowing that people around you aren’t living a certain way — pray for them. Don’t bash them or look down upon them. We have no room for self righteousness this year. We are all working on our own grass and the moment that you think you’re better than someone, God will humble that tail. 🙂 I’m a witness. lol
ALSO I am adding a few other things into this year’s challenge. Things like, 24 hours with no social media. 24 hours where we don’t eat out and cook from home, 24 hour fast from complaining etc. Be sure to read the full emails everyday for new instructions!
So, today is day 2. Grab your journals and write “Day 2” Tomorrow is Day 3 and so on. If this is your first day in the challenge, start out with “day 1.” If you haven’t grabbed your journal or a book to read for the month — find one! If you need some help, I have journals and books HERE. I will rush ship everything to you!
If you haven’t had a chance to check out the details of the Journal challenge, check it out HERE.
ALSO, every week, I will be giving you a NEW scripture to meditate on for the week. The goal is to meditate on it daily AND memorize it. Even if you’ve already memorized the scripture — then meditate on it. Just roll it over in your mind, think about it, focus on it, break it down and study it in a brand new way.
This week’s scripture is:
Proverbs 3:5 (NLT Version)
“Trust in the Lord with all of your heart and do not depend on your own understanding. Seek His will in all that you do and He will show you which path to take.”
Just a few things!
– I will be sending out a DAILY email of encouragement for the next 21 days and we will wrap with my FREE monthly study on January 23rd, 2020 at 9pm EST LIVE on my Youtube Channel. ( I will also be doing a Live Q & A!)
– There’s no “set” time to when I will send out the daily email. I will send it out as the Holy Spirit places it on my heart. It may be 8am EST. Or, 8pm EST. Don’t worry, it’s coming! Also, make sure you take this email out of your junk mail if it went there!
– Be sure to join the Facebook Group for accountability! You can join the group HERE. If the link isn’t pulling up for you for some reason, just search “Pinky Promise Sisterhood” on Facebook.
Remember, it’s easy to start. The goal here is to FINISH. You have 24 hours in ONE day. Give 1% of your day to God for the next 21 days. I can ASSURE you that it will CHANGE your life.
After the 21 days, you will find yourself NATURALLY going to the Lord’s presence for 1:1 time.
God loves you like crazy,
Love always,
Heather Lindsey
