I missed you, sis!!! and somehow, i completely forgot to leave y'all YOUR QUESTION at the end of the video!! so let's chat in the comments because seriously, i have missed you all. TODAY'S QUESTION: in what area of your life is God currently asking you to trust Him more and how can we be praying for you through it?! for me: currently, God is asking me to trusting HIS VISION over my own (like literally His sight and not my own) and it has been HARD to not get discouraged by what i see and hold onto His hand instead. i would love prayers for His perspective and getting rid of my tendency to lean on my own understanding, like i want to recognize faster that I am doing that, if that makes sense. thank you all. love you!! let us know your answer below so we can be praying for you too ♥🙌🏽
you know, i think the Lord is asking me a similar thing, melody! two encouragements i have for you, as they have also encouraged me to know that i am, indeed, hearing God's voice and hearing it accurately: 1) “It was the loss of her own vision that helped her to gain her remarkable spiritual discernment and insight.” (idk where i found this quote, but it's been on my vision board since the beginning of the year. vision board. lol. ironic.) 2) whoever gives thought to the word will discover good, and blessed is he who trusts in the Lord. - proverbs 16:20. i pray your encouraged! may we walk by faith and not by sight.
One thing I constantly remind myself is that, if God has done it before, He can do it again. In the face of life’s challenges, doubts always try to cloud our heart, however we must stand in faith with God.
Fact is ''and an independent fundamental baptist pastor of 11 years speaking here who went to a baptist university to become a pastor & was in an IFB church all my life before that,'' fact is the bible is false as hell all the way through, fact. There are over 800 solid concrete contradictions ''yes solidly concretely fact,'' take for example & I'll name just 1 for brevity's sake, how god says he won't punish the children for the parents sins, but later turns around & says he will to the 3rd & 4th generations. It also gets endless scientific, astronomy, biological, etc, things wrong that we know for fact to be factually wrong. If god wrote the bible he's utterly dumb & hasn't an utter clue whats he's talking about at all. And if there is a god he's the most evil being in existence, a liar, the cause of all evil & loves it. Everyone would do themselves the biggest favor to watch The Lord Who Lies on AronRa channel. Watch channels like Darkmatter2525 & The Atheist Experience & break away from this truly worst of damaging in every way teaching called the bible & the utter bs & worst of damaging in every way bs & evil in it & this worst of damaging thing called christianity. Bart Ehrman is another excellent one to watch ''as the matter of fact there's also a good one on AronRa channel where Bart is interviewed by AronRa with the title Will you be left behind'' Bart has more degrees & licensing than just about anyone in everything concerning the bible ''there's only 2 other people that has as many as him on this planet.'' And Harmonic Atheist is another beyond great channel, endless ex theologians, pastors, Masters of Divinity, apologists, you name it showing how the bible is absolutely false to the core. What you are seeing here in this video is the damage it has caused this man, psychiatrists know for fact now it literally turns people into sociopaths & that churches are filled with them ''especially the pastors'' & that churches are breeding grounds for narcissists, sociopaths, & psychopaths. I highly suggest you watch the ones I've listed because it all for solid fact is false and that is indisputable & not even debatable at all, that's solid & concrete! And do you even realize how ridiculous what youre saying is ''gods inviting you'' ''god wants a relationship with you'' ''god is speaking to you'' no hes not, he never speaks audibly to anyone, hes the hide and seek champion of the universe! If I say I love you and want a relationship with you, then disappear never to be seen or heard from again and you your whole life is saying this man loves me I have a relationship with him ''and youre constantly making things up in your head your whole life of things you think Im saying to you or telling you to do or that I want while Ive been gone 39 years/havent seen or spoken to you that whole time'' is exactly what christians do, but whats worse you never even met this dude and youre doing that, its truly like christians dont or cant even think about what the hell theyre doing! God has never spoken to anyone, its all in your head I can say that with all certainty and fact. And if god wants a relationship so bad he better come have one and quit being invisible. Fact is you cannot have a relationship with someone who for fact is never here, thats a fact and its ok to not have something/a relationship with someone who is truly not there. Dont believe me, turn to your right, or left, or just look straight forward and say hi jesus, hi god, I love you, how are you? Nothing! You cant have a relationship with something/someone who is literally not there. You can pretend you do and its no different than having an imaginary friend and sitting in a room carrying on a conversation with an imaginary friend who isnt there. And actually for any adult that translates to lunacy and crazy. Ever notice how god never speaks for himself, the almighty all powerful and its so important he has a relationship with you because he loves you so much he doesnt want you going to hell supposedly, but ever notice how he doesnt speak for himself ever, never, but how its always someone else speaking for him saying tinkerbell is real! Wake up and realize how asinine and false it all really is. Now lets all go read Peter Pan and try not to beleive its real!
GODkeep using this woman of God. Every time something is bothering me, here she comes with what I need. May Father God continue to lead and guide you 🙏🏽

I feel like God is asking to trust with EVERYTHING!! Because everything feels like it's falling apart. I feel like I am wandering around in darkness with no way out. I have been feeling this way for a while. I have nothing together or figured out at this moment and I feel like God is saying, trust Me! Choose Me. Stop looking at your circumstances and look towards Me. So I am praying and trying to trust Him with it all. Oh! Welcome back! We missed you too!
I could not have said it better myself. It explains my life right now!! I think He is ramping up and getting those He knows really want to be used by Him. I’ve been facing my problems and bad thoughts which is causing my anxiety, it has been causing my life to be unsure and unsteady. Good wants us closer to Him. Building our faith and trust,
For me currently: God is asking me to trust him with my finances and even more with his plan for my life. I tend to overthink EVERYTHING and I am mentally and spiritually exhausted with it. I am trying to lean into what he wants to me do and walk in alignment yet I feel like my overthinking causes me to miss what's right in front of me. I am very discouraged with my current space in life and I feel like I keep going backwards. Prayer request: God help me to get out of my head and into my heart. Help me to remember the promises of your word and to trust in my Heavenly Father more than I trust myself. In Jesus' name. Amen
To have a "everyday girl walking with your God" vibe that you bring- blesses me to no end! And showing us that Intimacy with HIM is first no matter what- impacted me greatly! Glad to have you back !!❤
Did God send you to speak to me? 😂Because I’ve been struggling in this area for a few weeks. It’s made me wonder what God is doing up there because what I’m seeing in the natural isn’t aligning with what I believe and know in the supernatural. I spoke to my mum about it yesterday and she said it’s because God is asking you to lean on Him more. So seeing your video pop up is just confirmation that this season is also planned by Him and God never calls you to the storm or leads you into the desert to leave you. So thank you for your obedience in sharing this message 🤎 and welcome back!
This correlates with the Bible plan I’m currently reading “Jesus told them, “This is the only work God wants from you: Believe in the one he has sent.”” John 6:29 NLT
I said to myself today before scrolling into this video that God took me out of egypt and am now in the wilderness marching to the promised land. Literally, that's where my life is. Just to find out, I need to trust him a little more and why the Isrealites were camp in front of the Red Sea. Powerful ! Am a bit spiritually weak. Pray for me guys not in the walk but being in the wilderness a long time. God has just blessed me with my own plot of land. Now I need a house for my family and can't afford it, but i know He will come through. He has done it before, and He will do it again. I pray I will soon revisit this comment to say I now own my own house on the land God gave me. In Jesus' mighty name.
I watched a video some time ago, signed up for the emails then forgot…but every life puts me in a chokehold I get email. Thanks for letting God use you. Simply incredible-Michelle
I feel like trusting in GOD fully is so hard sometimes esp.when you look around and don't see a way out but we walk by faith and not by sight.i feel like i have failed.I'm still learning to trust Him fully.
When I tell you, this is me! God called me to go to art school to develop my gifts in the arts. Completely frightened because college is very expensive but I wanted to be obedient so I went anyway. When I tell you this thing has literally been a journey of trust because I do not have the means to pay for college and take care of my family’s needs but the Lord has been making a way. Ive just been taking one step at a time and with each step i took, God provided a way for things to be paid for. He is my Jehovah Jireh ❤
So he literally called you on the phone like ring ring ring and said b*tch go to art school to develop your gifts in the arts! Wouldnt it be great if he just downloaded all the skills in you and quit making people suffer and worry and go thru a bunch of sh*t and take forever getting your sh*t working very hard struggling to make/have a better life cause god wont give it to you/do it because you are the one actually doing it and finding a way and while your whole family struggles while you do because youre paying bills for your school! Wouldnt that be great minus the bs and head games/life games! You give the one who is the cause of all the evil, grief, suffering, pain, d*ath, struggle, disease, agony, etc, way too much credit! That Jehova Jireh hes quite a guy! No! You found a way! No help from him!
I thought I had totally surrendered every area of my life to God but I realized I hadn’t at all but when I regrouped totally surrender my heart posture. He begin to open doors like I have a heart to help young girls know their worth and value and today he opened the door with HerSHEy “Girls on the Run” for the opportunity to be a Coach and spoke to me in a way I know it’s God doing and now you came back today in a powerful way with your encouraging message and it’s confirmation for me. Also I will be quitting my job full time to go to nursing school full time. I will totally trust God to provide during this time which I know he will in way I can’t even imagine because He did it for me before He will do it again. It’s so good to have you back Melody. Blessings ♥️
I needed this. It's been a very trying long 4 years and the last year has been so incredibly painful. Yesterday I asked God if He forgot me here (I know He doesn't leave us...but dang it feels like it sometimes). Following God's plan for your life is confusing and painful and long and hard. I am grateful for this channel. You have spoken directly to my situation more than once 🙏🏽
I think I’ve been losing it completely totally and embarrassingly for the last 5 years. 25-30. At 30 I am literally begging to either find the way out or for God to take my life because I’ve been wanting to do it myself for so long.
Good afternoon and welcome back Sis! This message was ON TIME! God has been asking me to trust Him in surrendering my relationship with my boyfriend, ongoing situations with my family, and starting a podcast that glorifies Him. I have been dragging my feet on the podcast since 2017 and have fallen for the lies of the enemy over and over again. Overall, I need prayers for consistency, perseverance, and finding peace in His plan. Like you Melody, it’s hard not to get discouraged as I don’t always see the whole picture. I’m choosing to trust Him anyway. ❤️
God is so good. Was crying and fretting about my worries and anxieties, vented to the Lord about my doubts and my desires and whether or not certain things I long for are meant for me. Told Him to please send me a sign to hold on and that He’s listening. That He hears me and that I have reason to hold on. This all happened last night and not even 24 hours and this video pops up. Wow, God is so good. Thank you for this ❤
In the same predicament sis…He got us but His just needs us to Trust him a 1000% right now. It is very uncomfortable for me but have to trust Him no matter what…didn’t even sleep last night and tired as crap right but God got it! This video popped up out of nowhere and wasn’t even a subscriber 😅
Perfect timing! I just found you today ... you were in my recommended. My husband has liver cancer. For the past 3 years we've been up and down. I literally just told someone over the weekend that I believe the Lord is telling me to TRUST Him. I memorized Matt 6:33 years ago, and through this I've added v34 as well. I recite them to myself almost every morning at 6;33-6:34 and in the evening if I catch the clock. I've done the 6:33 for about 40 years. I'm sure it's not talking about situations like mine, but if helps to remember that tomorrow is in His hands and it is my job to TRUST HIM, not to worry about something that is not even here yet. I stopped the video to comment. Now I'll go finish listening to what the Lord has put on your heart to share with folks like me. Thank you so much!
wow, thank you so much for sharing this. the verses are such a beautiful reminder to truly give Him EACH DAY, each moment!! i will also be praying for your husband 🙏♥
God revived a dream that I had years ago but I had completely let go of. After prayer and fasting, God confirmed that He will do it. I feel crazy sometimes because in the natural it doesn’t make any sense but deep in my spirit, there’s a still small voice that says keep believing. Thanks for sharing this ❤
I'm so glad I'm not alone!!! I was literally crying in the car today because I felt like I was losing it. I was fighting with God because He was urging me to post my first TH-cam video but I wanted to look completely put together, but He kept urging me to do it Imperfectly. I finally just gave in and posting my first video today. And it's the very last thing I would have wanted to post, but I know it was God's will and now I'm committed to trusting God in my TH-cam journey. Thank you for being an inspiration! God bless you all❤ We not crazy. 😂
I’m pouring out to the Lord at 2am this morning and I’m asking Him to show me the way to escape these temptations this season as He said He would in 1 Corinthians 10:13. He said “Be still and focus on me” (HE HAS BEEN SAYING THIS FOR MONTHS NOW BUT I STILL DON’T SEE THE FRUIT! And it’s getting frustrating. I woke up to your email with this video and I’m literally in awe. Thank you Melody for submitting to the Lord to use you.
I feel like God is asking me to trust Him instead of myself. I have found myself having to have control over everything in my life, and it's been so hard letting God and letting God. Honestly, not trusting Him with it all has not been the best! At this point, im like God, you can have it All
Omg this is crazy. I’m so early I just got on my lunch break at work and the second I got into my car I was just feeling the love of God and I felt that I had to trust Him more. Then you uploaded this. He is so timely.
I have been feeling this way for a really long time to the point of questioning whether i am losing my sanity in this cycle of constant doubt and fear. So thank you for this timely message. And My prayer is that God turns these moments into something beautiful.
Wow I never comment but I feel that God is speaking to me directly through you. I’ve been really struggling with this exact lack of trust lately and you have no idea how much I needed to hear this! Thank you Melody 🥹❤️
I think God is currently asking me to lean on him wholeheartedly and to believe that He put me back into a situation that I did not want to be in to come out better, stronger and smarter. I think He is asking me to have more faith in Him BLINDLY and to keep asking for His help during the most trying times. I think He is truly teaching me how to take space AND give grace to people even when I don't feel they deserve it. He is telling me to let Him handle their shortcomings and for me to walk away in peace. I would appreciate some prayers for more trust, strength and humility to look for God! Amen! Side note: Love you, Melody and glad to have you back :)
I feel like I've been experiencing one medical issue after the other. God has been placing little messages and signs to encourage me to trust him and this aligns with what has been placed on my heart. Thank you! It has been really difficult but I'm trying really hard to trust him and wait for his timing to do the supernatural.
Welcome back sis. God always speaks through you in your videos. All of us in the comment section must be going through the same season of fully surrendering and trusting God while learning to be still and know that He is God. The only way we can trust Him is if we relinquish control which has been so difficult but quite honestly, the only option I have. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths. He is fighting for us and we need to learn to be still.
Always on time!!!the title is exactly what I needed to hear 2 months ago word for word what I wish I found. So getting it now feeling a lot stronger getting this somewhere day by day and seeing this is a nice conclusion that did require me to step up more and lean into trusting God and his word and forcing myself to go back to the old notes rather than consuming new things . So if that’s you, just know it’ll be okay. I hate hearing what sounds like none sense but it will come together for your good as He said. Also thank you, for going deep enough about what you go through to give us personalized encouragement vs how most people generalize so much it does become generic and looses the helpfulness in us as people experiencing hurt.
"Don't let your emotions be more powerful or to trump the TRUTH found in the WORD of GOD." - This was for me! Thank you Melody for your obedience to God's call on your life, you are truly a blessing to us all
I literally told God i felt like o was going crazy . Like i was fighting wars in my mind and for this to come up is justtt!!!.... I'm screaming in awe ❤😭
Earlier today I remember saying Lord I don't understand what's going in my life and to please help me understand, and something led me to this video, so thank you. Amen !!!
Going through with health issues spreading in my body and I’m allowing God to do what he needs to and allow myself to let him. It’s difficult to go Through the worse of things, but for God it’s his best of things. He is a dependable God. I need to rely myself to continue to trust him more.
Currently God is asking me to trust Him more in my career and work life. I just graduated college and I thought I knew what the next steps were but God has been showing me that it’s not going to happen the way that my mind thinks it’s going to happen. I’m not sure where He’s taking me right now and I think just not knowing is bringing so much fear and anxiety. So please pray that I can trust that God’s not going to lead me in a career I don’t like or that’s not glorifying to Him. (I fear that I’ll be working to work and not having a meaningful career that I can serve the Lord in and enjoy)
Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things will be added unto you - Matthew 6:33 The ERV translation is “What you should want most is God’s kingdom and doing what he wants you to do. Then he will give you all these other things you need.” As we seek His will and obey Him in the wilderness, He will come through for us 🙌
God is asking me to trust Him with myself and the life He wants me to have. This is including career changes( from a 9 to 5 to Entrepreneur), finances etc. And it’s a HUGE leap to take 😂
You are truly being used by God because most times when you post a video, it’s directly related to something I’m going through. You are such a blessing and I just want to say thank you for allowing God to use you. Be Blessed
My career! Whew, I was led to quit my job in January and it was one of my best decisions. As I enter the 9th month and yet another denied application it’s been tough the last few months. I continue to stay steadfast and I will continue to trust.
I just absolutely like everything about your channel! The spiritual guidance you provide it is has been so helpful and important in my life. From just watching this video everything you said God has been confirming it in my spirit. May you continue to be the willing vessel God is calling for in this hour to bless his people.
I just downloaded my prayer worksheet and as soon as I got to prayer #3 I knew I was called to watch this video at the right time 😮💨. I just asked Him yesterday to help me surrender my worldly timelines to Him so that I may follow his😭.
This is literally an answered prayer and literally in his word, even more broken down. Lord knows I feel crazy, so many obstacles have come up to oppose and I’m doing my best to keep my focus on God. To prepare myself for his time and not waste this waiting season. At times I’m led by my emotions and I’m trying to not give in and lean into the Holy Spirits voice instead
MELODY!!! Missed you. I'm so happy you're back. You're part of my Monday routine. I happened to check your page yesterday and saw a NEW POST FROM YOU!!!! YOU'RE BACK!!! Your videos allow me to meditate on the Word of God. Thank you for coming back. Know that you were missed. You are valued and needed. Hugs and Blessings! Thank you for allowing God to use you!!! I'm doing my happy dance!!! Melody is back, y'all!!!!
Thank you Mel! This word is for me. It’s time for me to move to my next level. But there’s fear. I’m praying against it and for good courage. It’s a big challenge and like you said. I should not allow my emotions be greater than my trust and knowledge in the word of God. Thank you Jesus🙌🏾🥹
AWW WELCOME BACCKKKK‼️‼️‼️ You were missed but I am so glad you were able to step away for a bit to commune with the Lord. You look refreshed and that was my prayer. Thank you so much for sharing this video. Blessings to you and your family!!! 🩷💜🩷
I think God is telling me to trust in his timing. I have been asking for more of Him, to hear His voice, and to be deeper in Him, and I have been really frustrated because it seems like nothing is happening and I feel like I’m doing what I’m supposed to and I’m starting to become impatient with not hearing from God. It’s making me feel a bit foolish for even asking, or I keep asking where am I falling short, why isn’t He answering me? Im also trying to learn how to be still and get into his presence but I’m struggling there too. Nevertheless, I’m expecting for God to move in my life and help me to grow, and just have to remind myself it’s already done, I just have to get there
I'm having/have had a similar experience. There was a moment where I was going through a lot of confusion and turmoil and frustration with a big change in my life, and my sister encouraged me to lock myself in a room and tell God, I will stay here until you speak to me. So I woke up, did everything I needed to do so that I would not have to leave my room. I grabbed a pen and paper, put my phone on dnd, and told everyone in the house not to bother me unless they or someone else is dying. And I spent the entire day allowing my emotions and thoughts to flow and focus them on God. I wrote down everything I felt the Holy Spirit saying, I wrote down my own thoughts and questions, I napped, I cried, I meditated, I listened to the songs God put into my head or write down the lyrics and I waited for God. And I will never forget, as clear as day, I heard God give me a very clear instruction. It wasn't my own thought, it wasn't my feeling, I truly believe God speak to me that day. So I make an effort every morning to be still, give thanks, pray, and converse with God, so that I am open to His word and His voice throughout the day. This worked for me, it may not work for you, but my advice is to entire the throne room with confidence and boldness, and expect God to be faithful to you, His beloved daughter. (eph. 3:12 | gal. 3:26 | romans 8:14) I'm praying for you, sister!
WOW!!!! God is so so so good!! So, I’ve been a lot better about staying in my Bible recently and have been asking God for signs. This morning I get one of your emails (typically I delete all emails, I get over 100 a day) but for some reason I decided to open yours. (GOD) And then when I saw what you were making a video on today…. I gasped and screamed and thanked God, because THIS IS THE EXACT PAGE I WAS ON! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 God bless you babygirl!!!! God’s vessel!! ❤️🙏🏻❤️
I needed this I’ve been praying 3 years for my prodigal son to come back to Jesus and I have a Word from the Lord but waiting and trusting is hard when you see your child struggling
I have been in the process of leaving my cooperate job; applying for a ministry role at a church. Before applying I felt like I was in the wilderness in my career and life. I was previously in ministry and felt the Lord calling me back. This last month the church has been walking through Exodus and speaking on these things.. . I got the 3RD AND FINAL STEP of the interview process and then Denied 😭 I’m so hurt, and felt like LORD why would you bring me this far just to deny what you told me to do… then I come across this video when I was looking to just distract myself with nonsense on TH-cam. Reluctantly I click and here you are answering the prayer I asked GOD of WHY… I’m still hurt, but I thank you for being a willing vessel and a mouthpiece for the Lord.
FOCUS...some days I feel like I am all over the place and literally not full accomplishing a task for my business. I feel like I'm working hard, but I still need to learn how to slow down when working with clients. He spoke to me in my dreams once. He has shown me how each time I've accepted a client (quickly) because I need the money. Each time it turned out to be a disaster with that client to the point of verbal abuse. That caused me stress, anxiety, and a lack of sleep. This causes confusion when trying to do the work. Thankfully, I'm not with either one of those clients anymore. I have to remind myself that I have a roof over my head and food to eat all because of HIM. Therefore, I need prayers for PATIENCE. Thank you in advance.
Can’t tell how much this blessed me after a long night of not being able to sleep and heart fluttering every time I just thought about the situation. I had to have the wife pray for me this morning and my heart settled down. But as I am listening to this message I noticed that I am not only one. But I describe this to my friend the other day God wants us to blindly trust Him. I liken it as unto driving down the road at pretty good speed and God wants you to take your hand off of the steering wheel and let him drive. But you in the driver seat but not allowed to do anything but Trust Him. God is God and doesn’t need our help but does require our faith and trust in Him.
😮💨😮💨😮💨 crying my eyes out! I been going through things that just don’t make sense!! LIKE HOW DID I GET BACK TO THIS POINT IN LIFE??!! I get it now… THANK YOU MEL!!! 🫶🏽
I've never heard a message from Exodus 14 that focuses on the Israelites facing the Red Sea. This truly blessed me because I feel like that is where I am. I've been dealing with a situation for over 6 years. When God fixes this I will truly know it was nobody but Him.
I'm glad that I came across the email about your latest video. I am a Chinese major and I know for a fact that this is God. Figure that out months ago but I know that there's a lesson in why this is my calling. I remember this woman speaking over my life years ago and she said that if she told me what God had showed her. That I would laugh and I reject it. And I remember telling her arrogantly that why would I do that chileeeee.. 😂😂😂 if I could talk to Miss Leah again I would tell her she is 100% right. Pass me would look at me like I'm insane and honestly present me does as well. But there's a bigger purpose to this that I've realized. And I know that one of them is that like you're not going to always be comfortable when you're walking the journey with God. He's also been telling me to read Moses for months every time I would ask God what book in the Bible I should read it was always Exodus. And before I thought it was because I'm like well maybe that's just because I know Moses but I realized through my own personal readings that I did not.
I need to trust Him more to guide me in the direction that is His will for my life. I am struggling to know if I am doing the right thing and is His calling for my life. I feel like I am always searching for signs and answers to what to do next and where to go next in life. I am a visual person so I need things to be clear and concise to understand something and when it’s not I am unsure and questioning everything I do. I am in a season of questioning everything at this moment and I just want clear and visible answers on what to do.
Honestly !!! This is so me . I need to know what I’m doing next so I can look forward to it or plan towards it, that’s why giving up control can be very very hard for me. But I am trying to just trust in God and let his have the reigns
I love this, "simply focus on obedience" and not on the outcomes ♥️ This video blessed me, glad you are back and rested. We all need that quiet time with God sometimes 👌🏽🙂
I feel like my trust in God in certain areas of my life is through the roof because time and time again he’s proved himself a way maker so when things are shaking in those areas I am am not moved In other areas of my life hope keeps getting deferred
Hello Sis I needed to hear this because right now I am trusting GOD because I am about to lose my storage and I have things in there that I can't replace its been in my family for years I lost my mother and her only sister a week apart one in January and the other one February of this year its been so hard for me I been going through for four years now please keep me in your prayers and who ever else reads this GOD bless you all ❤
Thank you! Welcome back because I’m so happy to see your beautiful smile and the grace that you have given not only to me but your platform. This video is as definitely a blessing to me. Thank you 😊 ❤🙏🏾
I don’t remember ever getting an email from you but today I did and I know it was God because you said exactly what I know but needed to hear. He spoke through you thank you Lord and thank you so much for being obedient to your calling!!! ❤️
Soon I saw “one day ago” I immedietly thanked God. So happy to have you back. You are ALWAYS on time. Im sure we are Life twins. Because you always seem to speak on things that I am currently going through. Im convinced God puts us in hard situations to give us a REASON to testify of his goodness. So accept those trials. We need your victory story.
I had to rewatch this video today. Yesterday I got hit with some unfortunate health news and it knocked my focus but before I went to bed, I told God, I’m hurting but I trust you.
WOW! I just got off my knees praying, crying and telling GOD I’m ready for whatever it is that’s coming because he’s closing so many doors in my life ! I know he’s preparing me for something greater !
Your DEFINITELY being used by the spirit of God💜 been watching you for almost a year now and I promise at one point of my walk God was using your ministry to speak through me.. every time you posted I felt like God was speaking directly to me🙏🏾 God and Lord Jesus is definitely GOOD and his spirit is definitely moving prayers for you mighty women of God🔥 devil doesn’t attack an empty home
Oh wow nice. Also yeah I am definitely finding myself stepping out in faith. Walking into the unknown the only thing I feel secure about is God is still hear and he hasn’t left me.
Wow wow wow! I haven’t even begun the video yet however after my quiet time and Bible reading with the Lord last night, He gave me a revelation and a word regarding this exact topic. Being still and trusting God’s timing, and the way he gave this message to me was quite crafty and funny might I add. The Holy Spirit downloaded it to me so clearly and direct! This is confirmation that I was indeed hearing from The Lord as he continues training up the spiritual gift he’s given me. I was instructed to share the Word and not keep it for myself also so I’m very excited to share The Word of The Holy Spirit 😊 I love this! All glory to God for your obedience!
I stumbled across this video at the right time. I know that God is working behind the scenes. Everything that could possibly go wrong is going wrong. I can't help but completely trust in the Lord.
So nice to see your beautiful face again with my feed today!!! I was literally just thinking about you and then you popped up. I pray that your sabbatical is going well. I pray that you continue to rest in the Lord. We love you and we thank you for all that you do for us!!! ❤🎉
I truly thank God that he called you to create this channel and teach the lessons of the Bible in the way you do. It helps me understand things in a real way. Please continue this good work ! 😇
I've never commented before, but I love your videos. I subscribed to your channel a while ago, bc I resonated with you and how you brought the word of God to all of us. I was sad when you posted your last video of taking some time away from youtube. I completely understood and wished the absolute best for you and your family. I wish you could have seen and felt my joy when I got this notification. A huge Welcome Back Sis!!! You're such an inspiration and you've made my day🥰 Peace, Blessings and Love Always to you
Love your videos! Super inspired as a fellow Christian’s content creator to remain in HIM and remain steadfast in everything he has called me to do while also prioritizing REST! Bless you sister!
Within the first 12 seconds, I already feel like crying! Lol the Holy Ghost just embraces me every time I watch your videos! I pray you and your family are well
The Lord has surely spoken and I must yield, oftentimes we allow timidity and fear of man to control us to which we shouldn't allow 😢as we know who we are , we are children of God, made in his Iikeness, we are royalty, his masterpiece and through him we can do all things through Him Christ Jesus who strengthens us; THUS, WE WILL NOT FAIL💪🏿💯...WE ARE TO GET 🆙️, BRUSH OFF OURSELVES AND KEEP MOVING BY THE COMMANDS OF GOD OUR SAVIOR👈🏿👈🏿👈🏿👈🏿 OH HELP US DEAR AND ALMIGHTY GOD TO MOVE SPEEDILY AND IN TOTAL OBEDIENCE TO YOUR CALLS🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Whew I’m a new subscriber never seen your page before today. This video has brought me to tears & spoke exactly to the season I have been in for so very long. Thank you for obeying God.
I missed you, sis!!! and somehow, i completely forgot to leave y'all YOUR QUESTION at the end of the video!! so let's chat in the comments because seriously, i have missed you all. TODAY'S QUESTION: in what area of your life is God currently asking you to trust Him more and how can we be praying for you through it?!
for me: currently, God is asking me to trusting HIS VISION over my own (like literally His sight and not my own) and it has been HARD to not get discouraged by what i see and hold onto His hand instead. i would love prayers for His perspective and getting rid of my tendency to lean on my own understanding, like i want to recognize faster that I am doing that, if that makes sense. thank you all. love you!! let us know your answer below so we can be praying for you too ♥🙌🏽
Welcome back sis. For me it's my marriage and finances/ debt freedom
you know, i think the Lord is asking me a similar thing, melody! two encouragements i have for you, as they have also encouraged me to know that i am, indeed, hearing God's voice and hearing it accurately:
1) “It was the loss of her own vision that helped her to gain her remarkable spiritual discernment and insight.” (idk where i found this quote, but it's been on my vision board since the beginning of the year. vision board. lol. ironic.)
2) whoever gives thought to the word will discover good, and blessed is he who trusts in the Lord. - proverbs 16:20.
i pray your encouraged! may we walk by faith and not by sight.
Such a tough time, getting old for a baby, yet no husband and no full job… makes me afraid it wont happen. But i try daily to trust more in God
it makes sense! 🙏Oceans by Bri Babineaux has reeeaally been ministering to me ❤ th-cam.com/video/p7Jff1fWJO0/w-d-xo.html
Thank you 🙏🏾
One thing I constantly remind myself is that, if God has done it before, He can do it again.
In the face of life’s challenges, doubts always try to cloud our heart, however we must stand in faith with God.
AMEN!
Need that confirmation!!!!
I say the same thing to myself too
Fact is ''and an independent fundamental baptist pastor of 11 years speaking here who went to a baptist university to become a pastor & was in an IFB church all my life before that,'' fact is the bible is false as hell all the way through, fact. There are over 800 solid concrete contradictions ''yes solidly concretely fact,'' take for example & I'll name just 1 for brevity's sake, how god says he won't punish the children for the parents sins, but later turns around & says he will to the 3rd & 4th generations. It also gets endless scientific, astronomy, biological, etc, things wrong that we know for fact to be factually wrong. If god wrote the bible he's utterly dumb & hasn't an utter clue whats he's talking about at all. And if there is a god he's the most evil being in existence, a liar, the cause of all evil & loves it. Everyone would do themselves the biggest favor to watch The Lord Who Lies on AronRa channel. Watch channels like Darkmatter2525 & The Atheist Experience & break away from this truly worst of damaging in every way teaching called the bible & the utter bs & worst of damaging in every way bs & evil in it & this worst of damaging thing called christianity. Bart Ehrman is another excellent one to watch ''as the matter of fact there's also a good one on AronRa channel where Bart is interviewed by AronRa with the title Will you be left behind'' Bart has more degrees & licensing than just about anyone in everything concerning the bible ''there's only 2 other people that has as many as him on this planet.'' And Harmonic Atheist is another beyond great channel, endless ex theologians, pastors, Masters of Divinity, apologists, you name it showing how the bible is absolutely false to the core. What you are seeing here in this video is the damage it has caused this man, psychiatrists know for fact now it literally turns people into sociopaths & that churches are filled with them ''especially the pastors'' & that churches are breeding grounds for narcissists, sociopaths, & psychopaths. I highly suggest you watch the ones I've listed because it all for solid fact is false and that is indisputable & not even debatable at all, that's solid & concrete! And do you even realize how ridiculous what youre saying is ''gods inviting you'' ''god wants a relationship with you'' ''god is speaking to you'' no hes not, he never speaks audibly to anyone, hes the hide and seek champion of the universe! If I say I love you and want a relationship with you, then disappear never to be seen or heard from again and you your whole life is saying this man loves me I have a relationship with him ''and youre constantly making things up in your head your whole life of things you think Im saying to you or telling you to do or that I want while Ive been gone 39 years/havent seen or spoken to you that whole time'' is exactly what christians do, but whats worse you never even met this dude and youre doing that, its truly like christians dont or cant even think about what the hell theyre doing! God has never spoken to anyone, its all in your head I can say that with all certainty and fact. And if god wants a relationship so bad he better come have one and quit being invisible. Fact is you cannot have a relationship with someone who for fact is never here, thats a fact and its ok to not have something/a relationship with someone who is truly not there. Dont believe me, turn to your right, or left, or just look straight forward and say hi jesus, hi god, I love you, how are you? Nothing! You cant have a relationship with something/someone who is literally not there. You can pretend you do and its no different than having an imaginary friend and sitting in a room carrying on a conversation with an imaginary friend who isnt there. And actually for any adult that translates to lunacy and crazy. Ever notice how god never speaks for himself, the almighty all powerful and its so important he has a relationship with you because he loves you so much he doesnt want you going to hell supposedly, but ever notice how he doesnt speak for himself ever, never, but how its always someone else speaking for him saying tinkerbell is real! Wake up and realize how asinine and false it all really is. Now lets all go read Peter Pan and try not to beleive its real!
I had a friend tell me “the closer you are to God, the crazier you may feel” lol because He’s challenging our view and faith and in Him
JESUS!!! I literally said “I feel like I’m going crazy” JUST a few minutes ago then I see you drop this Lord knows!!
Wow!!! God is so intentional because the way this title came to me OUT OF THE BLUE a few days ago!!! He is so good 🥲♥️♥️♥️
Same thing happens here
Oh my goodness! Me too!
I just said I’m really not wanting to wake up anymore. And I hate that I said it out loud…
GODkeep using this woman of God. Every time something is bothering me, here she comes with what I need. May Father God continue to lead and guide you 🙏🏽
I didn't even watch the video yet and I already feel like this is for me😭 the title alone ❤
Same girl
Yes!

I feel like God is asking to trust with EVERYTHING!! Because everything feels like it's falling apart. I feel like I am wandering around in darkness with no way out. I have been feeling this way for a while. I have nothing together or figured out at this moment and I feel like God is saying, trust Me! Choose Me.
Stop looking at your circumstances and look towards Me.
So I am praying and trying to trust Him with it all.
Oh! Welcome back! We missed you too!
Amen, God bless you in Jesus name. The Lord will come through for you
@@maranatha22777 thank you for your prayers 🙏🏾
I could not have said it better myself. It explains my life right now!! I think He is ramping up and getting those He knows really want to be used by Him. I’ve been facing my problems and bad thoughts which is causing my anxiety, it has been causing my life to be unsure and unsteady. Good wants us closer to Him. Building our faith and trust,
@@brendapouncey6475 praying for you 🙏🏾
For me currently: God is asking me to trust him with my finances and even more with his plan for my life. I tend to overthink EVERYTHING and I am mentally and spiritually exhausted with it. I am trying to lean into what he wants to me do and walk in alignment yet I feel like my overthinking causes me to miss what's right in front of me. I am very discouraged with my current space in life and I feel like I keep going backwards.
Prayer request: God help me to get out of my head and into my heart. Help me to remember the promises of your word and to trust in my Heavenly Father more than I trust myself. In Jesus' name. Amen
Literally same
Same!!!
To have a "everyday girl walking with your God" vibe that you bring- blesses me to no end! And showing us that Intimacy with HIM is first no matter what- impacted me greatly! Glad to have you back !!❤
aww sis thank you!! to God be the glory in it all.
Did God send you to speak to me? 😂Because I’ve been struggling in this area for a few weeks. It’s made me wonder what God is doing up there because what I’m seeing in the natural isn’t aligning with what I believe and know in the supernatural. I spoke to my mum about it yesterday and she said it’s because God is asking you to lean on Him more. So seeing your video pop up is just confirmation that this season is also planned by Him and God never calls you to the storm or leads you into the desert to leave you. So thank you for your obedience in sharing this message 🤎 and welcome back!
You and me both 😂
@@johannees622 yup
Amen ❤
Yes this is really a rough season for me too!
You are speaking to what im going through
This correlates with the Bible plan I’m currently reading “Jesus told them, “This is the only work God wants from you: Believe in the one he has sent.””
John 6:29 NLT
I said to myself today before scrolling into this video that God took me out of egypt and am now in the wilderness marching to the promised land. Literally, that's where my life is. Just to find out, I need to trust him a little more and why the Isrealites were camp in front of the Red Sea. Powerful ! Am a bit spiritually weak. Pray for me guys not in the walk but being in the wilderness a long time. God has just blessed me with my own plot of land. Now I need a house for my family and can't afford it, but i know He will come through. He has done it before, and He will do it again. I pray I will soon revisit this comment to say I now own my own house on the land God gave me. In Jesus' mighty name.
Amen
I watched a video some time ago, signed up for the emails then forgot…but every life puts me in a chokehold I get email. Thanks for letting God use you. Simply incredible-Michelle
I feel like trusting in GOD fully is so hard sometimes esp.when you look around and don't see a way out but we walk by faith and not by sight.i feel like i have failed.I'm still learning to trust Him fully.
When I tell you, this is me! God called me to go to art school to develop my gifts in the arts. Completely frightened because college is very expensive but I wanted to be obedient so I went anyway. When I tell you this thing has literally been a journey of trust because I do not have the means to pay for college and take care of my family’s needs but the Lord has been making a way. Ive just been taking one step at a time and with each step i took, God provided a way for things to be paid for. He is my Jehovah Jireh ❤
So he literally called you on the phone like ring ring ring and said b*tch go to art school to develop your gifts in the arts! Wouldnt it be great if he just downloaded all the skills in you and quit making people suffer and worry and go thru a bunch of sh*t and take forever getting your sh*t working very hard struggling to make/have a better life cause god wont give it to you/do it because you are the one actually doing it and finding a way and while your whole family struggles while you do because youre paying bills for your school! Wouldnt that be great minus the bs and head games/life games! You give the one who is the cause of all the evil, grief, suffering, pain, d*ath, struggle, disease, agony, etc, way too much credit! That Jehova Jireh hes quite a guy! No! You found a way! No help from him!
I thought I had totally surrendered every area of my life to God but I realized I hadn’t at all but when I regrouped totally surrender my heart posture. He begin to open doors like I have a heart to help young girls know their worth and value and today he opened the door with HerSHEy “Girls on the Run” for the opportunity to be a Coach and spoke to me in a way I know it’s God doing and now you came back today in a powerful way with your encouraging message and it’s confirmation for me. Also I will be quitting my job full time to go to nursing school full time. I will totally trust God to provide during this time which I know he will in way I can’t even imagine because He did it for me before He will do it again. It’s so good to have you back Melody. Blessings ♥️
❤
❤❤❤❤❤ this is so wonderful! Keep pushing! 🙏🏽💪🏽❤️ God got you! ❤
I know you will be able to make an impact on the young girls that you may meet in your nursing program too! Amen, amen, amen! 🙏🏾 🙌🏾✨
I needed this. It's been a very trying long 4 years and the last year has been so incredibly painful. Yesterday I asked God if He forgot me here (I know He doesn't leave us...but dang it feels like it sometimes). Following God's plan for your life is confusing and painful and long and hard. I am grateful for this channel. You have spoken directly to my situation more than once 🙏🏽
EVERYTHING you said. I feel like I’m literally losing it
Right there with you… it’s been almost 5 years of blur and heartache. Keep growing that mustard seed of faith. Nothing is wasted 🫶🏼
I think I’ve been losing it completely totally and embarrassingly for the last 5 years. 25-30. At 30 I am literally begging to either find the way out or for God to take my life because I’ve been wanting to do it myself for so long.
Good afternoon and welcome back Sis! This message was ON TIME!
God has been asking me to trust Him in surrendering my relationship with my boyfriend, ongoing situations with my family, and starting a podcast that glorifies Him. I have been dragging my feet on the podcast since 2017 and have fallen for the lies of the enemy over and over again.
Overall, I need prayers for consistency, perseverance, and finding peace in His plan. Like you Melody, it’s hard not to get discouraged as I don’t always see the whole picture. I’m choosing to trust Him anyway. ❤️
I will be praying for you sis! May this be the year, the moment even, we’re surrendered and obedience to ALL that He says
God is so good. Was crying and fretting about my worries and anxieties, vented to the Lord about my doubts and my desires and whether or not certain things I long for are meant for me. Told Him to please send me a sign to hold on and that He’s listening. That He hears me and that I have reason to hold on. This all happened last night and not even 24 hours and this video pops up. Wow, God is so good. Thank you for this ❤
In the same predicament sis…He got us but His just needs us to Trust him a 1000% right now. It is very uncomfortable for me but have to trust Him no matter what…didn’t even sleep last night and tired as crap right but God got it! This video popped up out of nowhere and wasn’t even a subscriber 😅
Perfect timing! I just found you today ... you were in my recommended. My husband has liver cancer. For the past 3 years we've been up and down. I literally just told someone over the weekend that I believe the Lord is telling me to TRUST Him. I memorized Matt 6:33 years ago, and through this I've added v34 as well. I recite them to myself almost every morning at 6;33-6:34 and in the evening if I catch the clock. I've done the 6:33 for about 40 years. I'm sure it's not talking about situations like mine, but if helps to remember that tomorrow is in His hands and it is my job to TRUST HIM, not to worry about something that is not even here yet. I stopped the video to comment. Now I'll go finish listening to what the Lord has put on your heart to share with folks like me. Thank you so much!
wow, thank you so much for sharing this. the verses are such a beautiful reminder to truly give Him EACH DAY, each moment!! i will also be praying for your husband 🙏♥
God revived a dream that I had years ago but I had completely let go of. After prayer and fasting, God confirmed that He will do it. I feel crazy sometimes because in the natural it doesn’t make any sense but deep in my spirit, there’s a still small voice that says keep believing. Thanks for sharing this ❤
I'm so glad I'm not alone!!! I was literally crying in the car today because I felt like I was losing it. I was fighting with God because He was urging me to post my first TH-cam video but I wanted to look completely put together, but He kept urging me to do it Imperfectly. I finally just gave in and posting my first video today. And it's the very last thing I would have wanted to post, but I know it was God's will and now I'm committed to trusting God in my TH-cam journey. Thank you for being an inspiration! God bless you all❤ We not crazy. 😂
As I looked down at my phone I saw this video notification. I knew the Lord was speaking to me! 😭
Me too babe 😂❤ I was like woah this is rather timely
I’m pouring out to the Lord at 2am this morning and I’m asking Him to show me the way to escape these temptations this season as He said He would in 1 Corinthians 10:13. He said “Be still and focus on me” (HE HAS BEEN SAYING THIS FOR MONTHS NOW BUT I STILL DON’T SEE THE FRUIT! And it’s getting frustrating. I woke up to your email with this video and I’m literally in awe. Thank you Melody for submitting to the Lord to use you.
When my phone went off and I saw that it was you, I said “Yes Lord” she is back. I have missed you and pray that everything worked for the good. 🙌🏾❤️
I felt like I was going insane this weekend, I needed this ❤
🙏♥
I feel like God is asking me to trust Him instead of myself. I have found myself having to have control over everything in my life, and it's been so hard letting God and letting God. Honestly, not trusting Him with it all has not been the best! At this point, im like God, you can have it All
Omg this is crazy. I’m so early I just got on my lunch break at work and the second I got into my car I was just feeling the love of God and I felt that I had to trust Him more. Then you uploaded this. He is so timely.
♥️♥️♥️ it’s giving a right on time GOD!
You're back so soon, praise God, i've missed you Mel. ❤🎉.
I have been feeling this way for a really long time to the point of questioning whether i am losing my sanity in this cycle of constant doubt and fear.
So thank you for this timely message. And My prayer is that God turns these moments into something beautiful.
Wow I never comment but I feel that God is speaking to me directly through you. I’ve been really struggling with this exact lack of trust lately and you have no idea how much I needed to hear this! Thank you Melody 🥹❤️
Yep, this is definitely for me. Obey God and leave the consequences to him - Dr. Charles Stanley. Tfs
Yes! My absolute favorite pastor. I frequently recite that to myself in this season.
❤Welcome Back! Oh how I have missed your messages and energy! 🤗 My sista in the Lord!💐🙏
Amen
I think God is currently asking me to lean on him wholeheartedly and to believe that He put me back into a situation that I did not want to be in to come out better, stronger and smarter. I think He is asking me to have more faith in Him BLINDLY and to keep asking for His help during the most trying times. I think He is truly teaching me how to take space AND give grace to people even when I don't feel they deserve it. He is telling me to let Him handle their shortcomings and for me to walk away in peace.
I would appreciate some prayers for more trust, strength and humility to look for God! Amen!
Side note: Love you, Melody and glad to have you back :)
I feel like I've been experiencing one medical issue after the other. God has been placing little messages and signs to encourage me to trust him and this aligns with what has been placed on my heart. Thank you! It has been really difficult but I'm trying really hard to trust him and wait for his timing to do the supernatural.
Welcome back sis. God always speaks through you in your videos. All of us in the comment section must be going through the same season of fully surrendering and trusting God while learning to be still and know that He is God. The only way we can trust Him is if we relinquish control which has been so difficult but quite honestly, the only option I have. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your paths. He is fighting for us and we need to learn to be still.
Always on time!!!the title is exactly what I needed to hear 2 months ago word for word what I wish I found. So getting it now feeling a lot stronger getting this somewhere day by day and seeing this is a nice conclusion that did require me to step up more and lean into trusting God and his word and forcing myself to go back to the old notes rather than consuming new things . So if that’s you, just know it’ll be okay. I hate hearing what sounds like none sense but it will come together for your good as He said. Also thank you, for going deep enough about what you go through to give us personalized encouragement vs how most people generalize so much it does become generic and looses the helpfulness in us as people experiencing hurt.
"Don't let your emotions be more powerful or to trump the TRUTH found in the WORD of GOD." - This was for me! Thank you Melody for your obedience to God's call on your life, you are truly a blessing to us all
I'm glad and grateful you are back. Peace and Blessings for you and your family. 😊
I literally told God i felt like o was going crazy . Like i was fighting wars in my mind and for this to come up is justtt!!!.... I'm screaming in awe ❤😭
You and Kaci Nicole always have a message that is needed that day! The Holy Spirit is working through you ladies!
Earlier today I remember saying Lord I don't understand what's going in my life and to please help me understand, and something led me to this video, so thank you. Amen !!!
Going through with health issues spreading in my body and I’m allowing God to do what he needs to and allow myself to let him. It’s difficult to go
Through the worse of things, but for God it’s his best of things. He is a dependable God. I need to rely myself to continue to trust him more.
Currently God is asking me to trust Him more in my career and work life. I just graduated college and I thought I knew what the next steps were but God has been showing me that it’s not going to happen the way that my mind thinks it’s going to happen. I’m not sure where He’s taking me right now and I think just not knowing is bringing so much fear and anxiety. So please pray that I can trust that God’s not going to lead me in a career I don’t like or that’s not glorifying to Him. (I fear that I’ll be working to work and not having a meaningful career that I can serve the Lord in and enjoy)
Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things will be added unto you - Matthew 6:33
The ERV translation is “What you should want most is God’s kingdom and doing what he wants you to do. Then he will give you all these other things you need.”
As we seek His will and obey Him in the wilderness, He will come through for us 🙌
Amen amen 🙏🏾
God is asking me to trust Him with myself and the life He wants me to have. This is including career changes( from a 9 to 5 to Entrepreneur), finances etc. And it’s a HUGE leap to take 😂
Me too sis
You are truly being used by God because most times when you post a video, it’s directly related to something I’m going through. You are such a blessing and I just want to say thank you for allowing God to use you. Be Blessed
This is a deeper look at how to rest in God.
My career!
Whew, I was led to quit my job in January and it was one of my best decisions. As I enter the 9th month and yet another denied application it’s been tough the last few months.
I continue to stay steadfast and I will continue to trust.
I feel overwhelmed and anxiety high but nothing is wrong. Been reading bible more ❤
I just absolutely like everything about your channel! The spiritual guidance you provide it is has been so helpful and important in my life. From just watching this video everything you said God has been confirming it in my spirit. May you continue to be the willing vessel God is calling for in this hour to bless his people.
Amen
I just downloaded my prayer worksheet and as soon as I got to prayer #3 I knew I was called to watch this video at the right time 😮💨. I just asked Him yesterday to help me surrender my worldly timelines to Him so that I may follow his😭.
Glad to see you back!!!!!!❤
thank you sis!! so happy to be back and refreshed ☺
This is literally an answered prayer and literally in his word, even more broken down. Lord knows I feel crazy, so many obstacles have come up to oppose and I’m doing my best to keep my focus on God. To prepare myself for his time and not waste this waiting season. At times I’m led by my emotions and I’m trying to not give in and lean into the Holy Spirits voice instead
MELODY!!! Missed you. I'm so happy you're back. You're part of my Monday routine. I happened to check your page yesterday and saw a NEW POST FROM YOU!!!! YOU'RE BACK!!! Your videos allow me to meditate on the Word of God. Thank you for coming back. Know that you were missed. You are valued and needed. Hugs and Blessings! Thank you for allowing God to use you!!! I'm doing my happy dance!!! Melody is back, y'all!!!!
Thank you Mel! This word is for me. It’s time for me to move to my next level. But there’s fear. I’m praying against it and for good courage. It’s a big challenge and like you said. I should not allow my emotions be greater than my trust and knowledge in the word of God. Thank you Jesus🙌🏾🥹
AWW WELCOME BACCKKKK‼️‼️‼️ You were missed but I am so glad you were able to step away for a bit to commune with the Lord. You look refreshed and that was my prayer. Thank you so much for sharing this video. Blessings to you and your family!!! 🩷💜🩷
I think God is telling me to trust in his timing. I have been asking for more of Him, to hear His voice, and to be deeper in Him, and I have been really frustrated because it seems like nothing is happening and I feel like I’m doing what I’m supposed to and I’m starting to become impatient with not hearing from God. It’s making me feel a bit foolish for even asking, or I keep asking where am I falling short, why isn’t He answering me? Im also trying to learn how to be still and get into his presence but I’m struggling there too. Nevertheless, I’m expecting for God to move in my life and help me to grow, and just have to remind myself it’s already done, I just have to get there
I'm having/have had a similar experience. There was a moment where I was going through a lot of confusion and turmoil and frustration with a big change in my life, and my sister encouraged me to lock myself in a room and tell God, I will stay here until you speak to me. So I woke up, did everything I needed to do so that I would not have to leave my room. I grabbed a pen and paper, put my phone on dnd, and told everyone in the house not to bother me unless they or someone else is dying. And I spent the entire day allowing my emotions and thoughts to flow and focus them on God. I wrote down everything I felt the Holy Spirit saying, I wrote down my own thoughts and questions, I napped, I cried, I meditated, I listened to the songs God put into my head or write down the lyrics and I waited for God. And I will never forget, as clear as day, I heard God give me a very clear instruction. It wasn't my own thought, it wasn't my feeling, I truly believe God speak to me that day. So I make an effort every morning to be still, give thanks, pray, and converse with God, so that I am open to His word and His voice throughout the day. This worked for me, it may not work for you, but my advice is to entire the throne room with confidence and boldness, and expect God to be faithful to you, His beloved daughter. (eph. 3:12 | gal. 3:26 | romans 8:14)
I'm praying for you, sister!
WOW!!!! God is so so so good!! So, I’ve been a lot better about staying in my Bible recently and have been asking God for signs. This morning I get one of your emails (typically I delete all emails, I get over 100 a day) but for some reason I decided to open yours. (GOD) And then when I saw what you were making a video on today…. I gasped and screamed and thanked God, because THIS IS THE EXACT PAGE I WAS ON! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 God bless you babygirl!!!! God’s vessel!! ❤️🙏🏻❤️
The lord’s timing is perfect I was just thinking about you! Then this video popped up! I needed this ❤
I needed this I’ve been praying 3 years for my prodigal son to come back to Jesus and I have a Word from the Lord but waiting and trusting is hard when you see your child struggling
I have been in the process of leaving my cooperate job; applying for a ministry role at a church. Before applying I felt like I was in the wilderness in my career and life. I was previously in ministry and felt the Lord calling me back. This last month the church has been walking through Exodus and speaking on these things.. . I got the 3RD AND FINAL STEP of the interview process and then Denied 😭 I’m so hurt, and felt like LORD why would you bring me this far just to deny what you told me to do… then I come across this video when I was looking to just distract myself with nonsense on TH-cam. Reluctantly I click and here you are answering the prayer I asked GOD of WHY… I’m still hurt, but I thank you for being a willing vessel and a mouthpiece for the Lord.
I literally just told GOD, I trust you but this is looking CRAZZZZY & Boom your video pops up. Thank you for your obedience🙏🏾🙌🏾
FOCUS...some days I feel like I am all over the place and literally not full accomplishing a task for my business. I feel like I'm working hard, but I still need to learn how to slow down when working with clients. He spoke to me in my dreams once. He has shown me how each time I've accepted a client (quickly) because I need the money. Each time it turned out to be a disaster with that client to the point of verbal abuse. That caused me stress, anxiety, and a lack of sleep. This causes confusion when trying to do the work. Thankfully, I'm not with either one of those clients anymore. I have to remind myself that I have a roof over my head and food to eat all because of HIM. Therefore, I need prayers for PATIENCE. Thank you in advance.
it is meee, i am the waffle! so glad you're back :) He's asking me to trust in His vision and provision. To go where He leads
🙌🏽
Can’t tell how much this blessed me after a long night of not being able to sleep and heart fluttering every time I just thought about the situation. I had to have the wife pray for me this morning and my heart settled down. But as I am listening to this message I noticed that I am not only one. But I describe this to my friend the other day God wants us to blindly trust Him. I liken it as unto driving down the road at pretty good speed and God wants you to take your hand off of the steering wheel and let him drive. But you in the driver seat but not allowed to do anything but Trust Him. God is God and doesn’t need our help but does require our faith and trust in Him.
😮💨😮💨😮💨 crying my eyes out! I been going through things that just don’t make sense!! LIKE HOW DID I GET BACK TO THIS POINT IN LIFE??!! I get it now… THANK YOU MEL!!! 🫶🏽
I've never heard a message from Exodus 14 that focuses on the Israelites facing the Red Sea. This truly blessed me because I feel like that is where I am. I've been dealing with a situation for over 6 years. When God fixes this I will truly know it was nobody but Him.
AMEN, sis!! So glad this blessed you. Keep on holding His hand ♥️🙌🏾
I'm glad that I came across the email about your latest video. I am a Chinese major and I know for a fact that this is God. Figure that out months ago but I know that there's a lesson in why this is my calling. I remember this woman speaking over my life years ago and she said that if she told me what God had showed her. That I would laugh and I reject it. And I remember telling her arrogantly that why would I do that chileeeee.. 😂😂😂 if I could talk to Miss Leah again I would tell her she is 100% right. Pass me would look at me like I'm insane and honestly present me does as well. But there's a bigger purpose to this that I've realized. And I know that one of them is that like you're not going to always be comfortable when you're walking the journey with God. He's also been telling me to read Moses for months every time I would ask God what book in the Bible I should read it was always Exodus. And before I thought it was because I'm like well maybe that's just because I know Moses but I realized through my own personal readings that I did not.
I need to trust Him more to guide me in the direction that is His will for my life. I am struggling to know if I am doing the right thing and is His calling for my life. I feel like I am always searching for signs and answers to what to do next and where to go next in life. I am a visual person so I need things to be clear and concise to understand something and when it’s not I am unsure and questioning everything I do. I am in a season of questioning everything at this moment and I just want clear and visible answers on what to do.
Honestly !!!
This is so me .
I need to know what I’m doing next so I can look forward to it or plan towards it, that’s why giving up control can be very very hard for me.
But I am trying to just trust in God and let his have the reigns
I love this, "simply focus on obedience" and not on the outcomes ♥️ This video blessed me, glad you are back and rested. We all need that quiet time with God sometimes 👌🏽🙂
I feel like my trust in God in certain areas of my life is through the roof because time and time again he’s proved himself a way maker so when things are shaking in those areas I am am not moved
In other areas of my life hope keeps getting deferred
I do feel God calling me to trust Him more, calling me to start doing the things I know I’ll need Him for Vs playing small and safe.
I trust you God thanks for everything amen 🙏🏽
Hello Sis I needed to hear this because right now I am trusting GOD because I am about to lose my storage and I have things in there that I can't replace its been in my family for years I lost my mother and her only sister a week apart one in January and the other one February of this year its been so hard for me I been going through for four years now please keep me in your prayers and who ever else reads this GOD bless you all ❤
i will be praying for you sis!!
Thank you! Welcome back because I’m so happy to see your beautiful smile and the grace that you have given not only to me but your platform. This video is as definitely a blessing to me. Thank you 😊 ❤🙏🏾
I don’t remember ever getting an email from you but today I did and I know it was God because you said exactly what I know but needed to hear. He spoke through you thank you Lord and thank you so much for being obedient to your calling!!! ❤️
Soon I saw “one day ago” I immedietly thanked God. So happy to have you back. You are ALWAYS on time. Im sure we are Life twins. Because you always seem to speak on things that I am currently going through. Im convinced God puts us in hard situations to give us a REASON to testify of his goodness. So accept those trials. We need your victory story.
I had to rewatch this video today. Yesterday I got hit with some unfortunate health news and it knocked my focus but before I went to bed, I told God, I’m hurting but I trust you.
Dont allow your emotions to shortchanged Your INHERITANCES and the call that God has upon your life❤❤💪🏿🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
WOW! I just got off my knees praying, crying and telling GOD I’m ready for whatever it is that’s coming because he’s closing so many doors in my life ! I know he’s preparing me for something greater !
Your DEFINITELY being used by the spirit of God💜 been watching you for almost a year now and I promise at one point of my walk God was using your ministry to speak through me.. every time you posted I felt like God was speaking directly to me🙏🏾 God and Lord Jesus is definitely GOOD and his spirit is definitely moving prayers for you mighty women of God🔥 devil doesn’t attack an empty home
Oh wow nice. Also yeah I am definitely finding myself stepping out in faith. Walking into the unknown the only thing I feel secure about is God is still hear and he hasn’t left me.
Girl!!!! The Israelites in Egypt have been highlighted for me for about week! You help me understand the Bible thank you!!!!!
Wow wow wow! I haven’t even begun the video yet however after my quiet time and Bible reading with the Lord last night, He gave me a revelation and a word regarding this exact topic. Being still and trusting God’s timing, and the way he gave this message to me was quite crafty and funny might I add. The Holy Spirit downloaded it to me so clearly and direct! This is confirmation that I was indeed hearing from The Lord as he continues training up the spiritual gift he’s given me. I was instructed to share the Word and not keep it for myself also so I’m very excited to share The Word of The Holy Spirit 😊 I love this! All glory to God for your obedience!
I stumbled across this video at the right time. I know that God is working behind the scenes. Everything that could possibly go wrong is going wrong. I can't help but completely trust in the Lord.
So nice to see your beautiful face again with my feed today!!! I was literally just thinking about you and then you popped up. I pray that your sabbatical is going well. I pray that you continue to rest in the Lord. We love you and we thank you for all that you do for us!!! ❤🎉
Amen
I truly thank God that he called you to create this channel and teach the lessons of the Bible in the way you do. It helps me understand things in a real way. Please continue this good work ! 😇
Trusting God in this season where I feel confused and lost. Pray that I’m able to endure and overcome❤️
Lauren Diagle’s - trust in you …is keeping me going in this season
I've never commented before, but I love your videos. I subscribed to your channel a while ago, bc I resonated with you and how you brought the word of God to all of us. I was sad when you posted your last video of taking some time away from youtube. I completely understood and wished the absolute best for you and your family. I wish you could have seen and felt my joy when I got this notification. A huge Welcome Back Sis!!! You're such an inspiration and you've made my day🥰 Peace, Blessings and Love Always to you
Love your videos! Super inspired as a fellow Christian’s content creator to remain in HIM and remain steadfast in everything he has called me to do while also prioritizing REST! Bless you sister!
"Face the Red Sea." Whew.❤ Thank you Melody. ❤
Trust and Obey was the hymn that came to my mind when I woke up on Monday... Trust and obey
Within the first 12 seconds, I already feel like crying! Lol the Holy Ghost just embraces me every time I watch your videos! I pray you and your family are well
The Lord has surely spoken and I must yield, oftentimes we allow timidity and fear of man to control us to which we shouldn't allow 😢as we know who we are , we are children of God, made in his Iikeness, we are royalty, his masterpiece and through him we can do all things through Him Christ Jesus who strengthens us; THUS, WE WILL NOT FAIL💪🏿💯...WE ARE TO GET 🆙️, BRUSH OFF OURSELVES AND KEEP MOVING BY THE COMMANDS OF GOD OUR SAVIOR👈🏿👈🏿👈🏿👈🏿
OH HELP US DEAR AND ALMIGHTY GOD TO MOVE SPEEDILY AND IN TOTAL OBEDIENCE TO YOUR CALLS🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Thank you for sharing and being transparent because I've been losing my mind I'm all over the place with my life and emotions. Yes lord Guide me
I am so happy you are back. God’s timing is always perfect. We may not understand, the process, but is for our good and his glory.
Friend, we missed you! Welcome back❤
Whew I’m a new subscriber never seen your page before today.
This video has brought me to tears & spoke exactly to the season I have been in for so very long. Thank you for obeying God.
Yes I am guilty as well 😩 I repent Lord for ever doubting you! Thank you for this on time word🙏🏻
