I heard a prophetess say this a few years back, “The environment (circumstances, etc) will always speak to you when a place is no longer for you.
💯Yes, I have seen that time and time again.
That’s where I’m
In now in the DMV I feel like im suffocating here so ready to go I know I have to get out
Gurrrrrrrrl it’s rough
True! What was once a blessing will begin to look and feel like a burden... I'm at that spot right now
Yes I agree
I like that you were transparent in telling us that God didn’t say it audibly to you but yet everything fell in place. Gave lots of clarity.
As a person that recently moved by the leading of God, I second this video!!! Don’t talk to too many people because they will talk you out of it - only few wise counsel in your inner circle.
Truth.
Everyone isn't sold out to God. That's why Jesus said to those serious about Him: You will need to separate close connections very often to follow Him.
What's crazy to me, I've been in LA for 7 years, & one day I wanted to just see how much cost of living was in other states & Texas kept coming up. So i started looking into maybe purchasing a home, Houston, Katy area. After a few weeks I said let me make an Indeed acct, just to see. After seeing that I'd rather be in a cooler area than hot, I decided to look into Dallas, Low and behold, technically get all the seasons, minus all the snow. Bingo. I get a job offer in Dallas a few days later. Now im flying to Dallas today to look at apartments, & will apply to one that my wife & I like. Potentially moving in 3 weeks. God has been telling me to move. Nervous, excited but ready. thank you for this video!
Did u move..how was it. I'm coming to visit soon.
I believe God is instructing me to move to Dallas. I just pray that he sends me more confirmation and Destiny helpers I know the time is now…
I believe God designs our every move, for his glory. I've tried to make certain life moves, that were blocked over and over again. I began to realize that God was truly ordering my steps, not allowing me to go left, when he determined for me to go right. Chuck Swindol once said, "we know it's the will of God, if it happens". Joni Erickson Tada, confirmed what God had been impressing heavily upon me, by saying "God doesn't just allow our trials, sufferings, etc, he designed them". God is either sovereign, or he's not. You're in Dallas because that was his plan and will for your life. If it happens, it's the will of God. If it's not the will of God, he'll block it 100 times over. He's done it to me many times, until I stopped trying.
Love this! I completely agree! ❤️
Yes, he does BLOCK what is not for us. I ended up muting and unfollowing a lot of preachers. Because I told God I wanted to hear him loud and clear and yes.
Thank you for that wisdom/ encouragement. It's interesting how one can say something until that one has to go through it.Thank God for Jesus🙌😇
Ayyye! You listen to Chuck too! Okay! ❤
I am planning on moving to Dallas. I am so scared & am glad I came across this video. This would be a big leap of faith for me.
God is with you wherever you go. You will be just fine sis!
This makes perfect sense. Everything just lines up and God does speak to us audibly but the thing is that miracles signs and wonders start following after. One time I was asking God about a place and a car drove infront of me with a liscense plate of that state. God does speak. ITS ALL ABOUT TIMING. Thank God for the breaks though. It does get overwhelming.
In 2021 .. July to be exact. Two of my children and I left Alabama and relocated to Washington DC. I have this one cousin that is always in my ear telling how DC is too big for us, how I shouldn’t have moved, how it’s too much crime, how it’s too dangerous etc etc.. mind you during the time I was 39.. very capable of taking care of myself and raised two grown sons by myself. Since I’ve moved here, she sees how well I have progressed and has now slowed down on the comments. When I was in Alabama, I could count on one hand how much family visited me supported me and my children while they were growing up. I am happy that I moved. Yes it was difficult at first, but the right ppl were put in those necessary places to help me achieve the things that needed to be achieved. My daughter loves it here and has supportive friends and my son has adjusted. We weren’t in the best neighborhood those first couple of years but we survived and now living in a better place. Currently looking into Homeownership. Firsthand FYI: never listen to family and friends unless they have always had your back and support you. No one else opinions are important. Go with God..
I have been feeling in my HEART that God wants me to move to Dallas! Doin all the research now & continuing to pray
🤍🤍🤍Let me know if there’s any way I can help!
Watching this video pretty late but with a scarily similar story ! I’m from NYC - live in Atl the past 9 years - considering Dallas or Houston and I also considered moving back to NYC because all of my friends and family are there. I think Texas is my next move & it really feels like God is leading me to there. I feel stuck here and I know i need to physically move for a change
This resonates with me so much ! I’m originally from Brooklyn as well. Since 2013 I have been in North Carolina … but since 2022 the Lord has been speaking to me abt Dallas .. I have never even visited Texas before but He keeps placing it heavy on my heart
Same here and I am looking into moving to Dallas for next year God Works in Mysterious ways 🙌🏾🙏🏽
Can I connect with you? I’m in upstate and feel like he’s been leading me to NC but have little resources. And I’m not sure how to really look around for good areas
Aww wow your story is resonating with me. I live in Maryland and I’m ready to get out of this place I recently left an abusive home in October .. so been homelesss basically since then and just lost my job God has been providing for me I just been kinda scared cause I have no car or anything not really enough money to live I don’t want to get there then be out on the streets there lol 🥲 it will all come together I believe someway somehow 🙏🏾
Good luck to you ma'am
Thank you sooooooo much this helped me soo much… esp the part when you said God didn’t sit at the foot of your bed… I am in this same process and the way God is just lining things up leads me to believe it’s his will
It's biblical to move where no family is at
Thanks for this reminder! ❤ I needed it.
This is nothing but the truth Everybody can't go 🙏🙏
May you kindly explain how so. Is it because god has something that’s for you and nobody else ?
@@Diyanibeats it's in Genesis, when he tells Abraham to move. His family members were worshipping other gods. Even Jesus said, those who do the will of my father, are my brothers, sister and mother.
Your "family " are just your relatives. Jesus said we will go through what he has. And his relatives always mocked him for who he is
@@Diyanibeats Abraham took lot and God couldn't bless him because he had his relative with him.
Children of God, are in the world but not of it.
How can God bless you, with all that you endured that your relatives haven't even had experience for, nor do your relatives care about Jesus
I am sorry to hear about the loss of your best friend. Lord support and comfort your daughter.
Thank you so much. I really appreciate it ❤️
This video helped me out a lot.. I’m from Queens, NY with a 2 year old son and I’m ready to take that leap of faith and move to Dallas this summer. I can’t let fear and people hold me back anymore.
Hi, don't let people hold you back, when I moved there were some people I did not tell until the very last minute because everyone has an opinion. good look to you, all my family that moved to Dallas and other parts of Texas are doing great. We moved from NY.
@@angelarivas7579 any advice on where good hiring jobs are in Dallas ?
Amen sis! Job just asked me to move to Dallas and i think you may have given me the courage to do it! ❤
Girl i gotta move there too and i asked for another confirmation last night and heres your video poppin up!
Girllll!! It's time to stop to start making some plans sis lol
@@saphinawest yes girl i’m on it !!! 😭🙌🏾
Thank you for this video Queen, I feel God calling me to move to Houston. Never would’ve thought. I originally wanted to move to Atlanta my whole life, Texas was a friends dream. I’ve gotten too many signs and no support in my hometown with my business anymore but I know it’s for purpose, on purpose!
Im moving to dallas from Chicago next week, it happened suddenly but thing in Chicago got so crazy i knew it was time to go.
I'm looking to move to the North Dallas or Plano area. I came there a fee months ago for our anniversary and fell in love! I have always felt a strong spirit to leave my small town and now I feel like I found a place that I feel I can grow and prosper ❤ thank you!
Love that for you sis! When did you plan on moving?
@saphinawest Whenever God opens that opportunity I'm ready. Hopefully by the end of this year. I am working on my online business opportunities so I can have more passive income as well when I make it there!
I moved to Texas but it wasn’t good to me I was definitely in a dark place so I got uncomfortable things wasn’t working out and one thing I wasn’t doing is praying god mad it so clear that I was even staying on the streets one day i finally realize I would have to go back home two days after I left a flood came
Texas is a flood zone that’s why I know these people have to start being real. Florida, Louisana, Texas, Alabama, and Mississippi are all states that are in the hurricane zone. Especially Florida & Texas they get hit the most by hurricanes even though they may not come yearly, tropical storms, thunderstorms, and then have floods.
I am originally from Florida who thought I wanted to move to Texas but I was like hell no and then they like to control women rights to.
All southern states are red state leaning meaning that it’s a certain mentality that be luring over these southern states people ignore.
I am not Christian either or any other religion but why love to states that will be affected by weather catastrophes, flash flooding, heatwaves, and severe thunderstorms.
The hotter the ocean levels the more hurricanes are headed in the south for the future for sure scientifically not all religious nonsense like people love to promote. My goal is to exit out the southern states to a better coast or better state that will fit me but not southern states in weather catastrophic zones that’s going to blow my home away or take my life.
Girl you a retelling my life! From NY-VA-NC-DTX this is wild!
Time for me IS now.
I will go anywhere; open to anything. 63 years old; Sealed in 1979. Have a variety of work, life, ministry experiences and the Holy Spirit kept me in a wilderness until I emptied everything from my past. All things must be new; have no clue of my next step. I'm still above ground for some reason 🤔
On standby for the direction and provision.
I KNOW He is Faithful 🎉🎉🎉
I resonated with this!
I NEVER thought about moving from the East Coast until recently. Husband and I just arrived to Dallas last night
This was so good. Your tip about not speaking to people who are not sensitive to the Spirit
This was a great video thanks for sharing this, me seeing it wasn’t by accident. God loves us so much that he knew I would knew this a year later I’m in awe, May God continually bless you and your family ❤
Girl not you called me out 😫😭 definitely been waiting on Jesus and his disciples to write me a note 🤣🤣🤣 ! Love love loved this video tho it was straight forward and very helpful! I believe I just need the courage
Wow, asking for a sign, start researching, come across your video and I too am from Brooklyn and moved to GA, Texas has been heavy on my spirit… thank you for sharing!
Wow, you are anointed. I feel the anointing strongly on this one. Praise be to God for you making this video!!
I am experiencing what you are talking about. The Lord sent me to TN this past summer. He, like you said had put it in my head. I received confirming signs. I did go and as you say I would never have chosen TN. Anyway after several attempts at securing a place I eventually last minute landed and rented from a wonderful couple whom I became friends with. They are people God sent me to I believe. Now, as of right now, I am not sure why I was sent to TN, maybe a test of faith? Because now I too am being directed to TX. Strange things that I consider "direction pointing" are also given to me even the date I should go. I could spend hours explaining, but when you know it's God, you know. Anyway, it does not make any sense to me right now but perhaps I will be further guided.😇
God spoke the same word to me weeks ago. I’m here now 🙌🏾
I can relate to a lot of your story. A parent passing, being on the move, a friend passing. I'm on the move right now learning to trust God more and let Him lead me to where I'm to go. Thanks for your godly wisdom 🙏🏻
Wow I literally lived in BK then moved to ATL now possibly going to move to Dallas or DC just praying for confirmation!! Thanks for sharing your testimony 🙏🏽✨
Ohhhh noooo 😢😢😢 I’m sending peaceful condolences 💐 I am the product of living without a parent. You’re not alone!! ❤ GOD got you
But thanks for this video! Helping me to know where GOD is going to place me at
Your video popped up when I opened YT. God has been telling me to move to Texas… Dallas specifically.
Crazy thing is, I’m from Brooklyn, NY and currently live in NC. I didn’t get no sleep last night. I feel it was because i was suppose to do something on yesterday 2/8 and didn’t. I didn’t listen.
This is definitely a sign for me.
Thank you for sharing❤
God telling me to move to Texas too I see Texas every where I go. I just don’t know what part of Texas.
@@shonicewesley6848 I didn’t know where at first but I asked him where he wanted me to go. I had 3 states in mind and me to saw Texas EVERYWHERE. License plates and even the outline of the state. My Nick name is Star. I was at a bar one night and saw a light with the outline of Texas and inside of it said “Lone Star”. I got emotional.
This was so helpful ❤
Thank you for sharing! Loved this video
Best video so far !
Thank you for keeping it all the way real. This blessed tremendously! Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you for this ❤
God bless you for doing this video. This just came up for me without me even typing anything in and all I can say without going into detail was that this was on time. Nothing but God allowed me to see this this morning.
The was short and concise, but so helpful to me! I have been working on some of the things you’ve spoken on just by believing what I’ve heard from God. Thank you for the helpful tips. Much love and success to you💕
Thank you so much for this video. I am struggling with deciding to relocate for a relationship. These are all really good tips.
Thank you for taking the time to make this timely video! God (Universe) has been strongly advising me to relocate from DC to Florida and the signs have been so evident lately. License plate tags… obsessive thoughts and visualizations just keep coming to me. I believe this video too is confirmation as it aligns with my thoughts of preparing for the transition. For whatever reason I still have yet to approach my employer about its relocation policy, but I think it’s time. Thank you for this video and best of luck!💕
The universe is not God. God created the universe.
@@Gabriela.H I was referring to the universal God that encompasses all!
I am packed up and ready to move I know the lord will make a way
@@SharlenesJourney I haven't moved yet keep hanging in their god timing is perfect
@@SharlenesJourney Hey! I didn’t! At the time I was contemplating making the move, I got a federal position! For now am still in Maryland.
Thank you for this!!! ❤ About to finish listening 👂 so good, so far!
Sounds scary but Imma still take my butt to them ppl state
Thank you for sharing your story ❤️🙏
You are so welcome
Beautiful video! My children and I are right in the middle of this transition to Dallas. Thank you for incorporating the leading of Holy Spirit in your video.
Thank you for sharing your journey. I received signs last year that God wants me to move to another state. I'm still waiting to hear back from God on what city in that state. I've never moved out of state to live. This did help some. I did try leaving once but it didn't work out my flight was canceled. So I just took it as a sign. Of not yet.
This was very insightful. Thank you for your testimony & your transparency. I definitely am going through this change in my life rn so this helped a lot! God Bless you love 💕
Glad it was helpful! Appreciate you sis!❤️
Thank you for sharing!
This is me right now.
You are so welcome!
Wow! The Lord just started speaking to me about moving. And when I tell you I have been seeing/hearing the state so much, it's crazy! I found this video as Im searching for videos about God calling people to move, and I clicked your video because I'm like she's cute lol and I live close. I know people there as well and have been there plenty of times. So im like ill watch her video. As I'm watching your video not even two minutes in you say the name. Atlanta! Its so crazy how God works!
Im thinking about moving to Texas.
🤎🤎
Thank you for sharing your journey! Your video was one of the first I saw, when God called me to move! 🙏🏾
Thanks for watching sis! 🤍Where did you relocate to?
@@saphinawest Of course! I moved to Dallas, well North Dallas. Lol 😂
I grew up in Atlanta. I can honestly say if you can make it in Atlanta you can make it anywhere. But God is my witness I do not believe Black people should move to Texas. It is just not for us. This place is different and the people do not embrace those who are different at all.
One day during praying and worshiping at home . I heard holy spirt say leave … I’m like what leave home … I was like what God. I’ve always lived in same state but a different city in my state. Dallas has been on my mind. I’ve always wanted to move to Texas. I need another confirmation😫
I was definitely thinking about moving to Dallas but the only thing stopping me is me not having transportation. I feel like once I get a car I’ll be able to make that drive seeing as I have a dog and a cat with me.
I just graduated high school yesterday Sunday. I have a feeling God is calling me to move to California not only because that’s where the college I want to go to. But because I have a feeling God has something else for me. But I’ve heard that Cali is expensive so I’m not sure how I’m going to be able to afford it
Congrats on graduating sis! Just know that if God is truly calling you there, He will provide you with everything you need. What may seem expensive to us, is not expensive to GOD.
@@saphinawest I’m actually a guy 😂
@@multicreativeartist6579 Sorry! Congrats dude* LOL!
@@saphinawest no problem 😂
Not being Dallas but being Texas ❤
This is so good. Dallas has kept coming up for me as well and I believe God is trying to get my attention. It’s definitely a scary thought because I feel like I’d be leaving all my friends behind but I want to obey God 🥲
That’s where I am now. I will be moving to Dallas next year. What areas do you recommend? I’ve been looking at Plano, Irving and Grapevine
I been looking at Plano,Frisco,Prosper, Celina or Mansfield/Arlington 🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
Lord Jesus she beautiful omgggg😮😮😮😮😮
❤😊🎉
You had to pay to apply for rent that jus amazes me. Real estate game is different there. Thanks for sharing, helpful with other avenues as well
Yes! We have to pay just to apply and it won’t be refunded even if you get denied. It SUCKS!😩lol
You literally have to pay an application fee in any state to apply for apartments….
Wowza sounds like a gap in the market
Oh no not another i moved to texas video. Lol its so hot in texas. Girl im glad God doesnt call me to go there.best wishes though
Your story/testimony is so similar to mine it’s scary 🫣
