Hi! My name is Melody Alisa - welcome to my channel. I lived in South Korea for two years where I met God and I documented my life as an English teacher (check out my Life in Korea playlist for more on this!) Now, I call Atlanta home. On my TH-cam channel, I share my Christian faith and life as a creative, a newlywed, and a new mom through weekly new videos!
gods instructions dont make sense, melody alisa, signs you are blocking your blessing, from unbelief to faith, wavering faith

hey, hey! so today's question is: what is ONE area of your life where you know God is calling you to believe BIGGER?! let us know in the comments below!
For me: you guys already know, as I mentioned in the video, God is calling me to believe in him for MORE (peace, calm, organization) in the area of business/ ministry here on TH-cam.
Peace, order, a Godly spouse/union, and purpose fully revealed
I am a compassionate person and need to be in position to help somebody. I am angry
And
God is calling me to trust Him bigger in my finances. I am unemployed, my resources are close to depletion, yet God keeps telling me to be still. That this is His battle, not mine, and that He will be victorious on my behalf. His instruction to be still makes NO sense given my circumstances, but I am going to obey and trust Him.
May God give you strength and comfort in your season of stillness!
And He is gonna come thru BIG!
@@dorotheaseabron289 Thank you, Dee. I so need this encouragement. 💕
How do you keep still? how do you obey in this area? I am also struggling in my finances and I am trying to surrender
@Di Mills I repent daily of striving, or trying to take matters into my own hands, and I pray for the power of the Holy Spirit to not do so. I also pray for the Spirit's guidance and wisdom and for sensitivity to the Spirit's voice and leading. Unceasing prayer and daily meditation.
Building intimacy with Him . He is slowly pulling me away from ppl as a protection and as a way for me to stay focused on what I said I wanted this year. A stronger relationship with Him ❤
THIS SOUNDS WONDERFUL!
Same sis
Same, this is exactly what I was about to comment.
I believe God is calling me to BELIEVE BIGGER in letting go the old and to accept the new.
whew!!! that part about letting go - so true. sometimes we have to let go to be able to able to receive what is coming!
Same here! He took me from it and i kinda did some of the stuff that I had let go, but he is telling me not to get distracted and focus on him FULLY 🤍
Thats so me.

God is calling me to trust him more and not be so consumed in fear when I’m in situations I don’t understand 💖✝️
I'm dealing with the same thing
@@zaniekacarmichael4650how r u
How r u
I’m believing God for bigger in relationships! He’s been growing me in patience, self-control, and self confidence so that I can steward the blessing of marriage well for his Glory❤
I am right there with you sis. May you continue with strength on your journey! XO
Same, same 🙏🏽
God is calling me to trust him in the timing and direction of my life. It’s difficult because I try and do everything on my own and so leaning into him is what I’m working on in this season .
Me too
Omg this is so me. I literally just wrote that. Sigh 😔 it’s a struggle. I fear being complacent. So I struggle to “be still”
100%%% feel this! I am as well thank you for sharing!
@@keishalaing2749how r u
I've never lived on my own. I have been wanting to since I was 20. I just turned 26 last Monday and I cried because my circumstances don't look too good. I want to learn how-to make a house a home for my future family and because I've never really had a home. I have applied to low income apartments and was not accepted. I am honestly believing in God to become a homeowner. I don't know how it's going to happen but it's been on my heart.
**God is so good! I am turning 27 in a couple of days and life has changed. God has moved me to a new state where I didn't know anyone, gave me community, walked me through the wilderness, paid the rent for my beautiful apartment even though I hadn't worked in months, and is continuing to lead me. I hope this can encourage someone that God has a hope and future for you!!!
What if god has something bigger for you.
@Nene Pearl amen! I am now living in an apartment on my own. God brought it in a way that I didn't think of. I do believe that I there is something bigger that God is prepping me for though.
Amen congratulations sister ❤
Have you ever noticed that every woman of God is very beautiful? So many beautiful believers who trust in him are all very loved, cared for, & gorgeous. This video has helped me realize that my faith has brung me so much closer to him & will get me farther than I have been lead to believe.❤️
Thats so true, ive noticed it too.
Thank you so much for this video it was right on time! I was just praying and crying because I was focused on my circumstances more than I was on God. I asked him for a sign and then came to TH-cam and your video just dropped! Thank you for your obedience it was right on time. I will continue to trust him and believe bigger for this faith move he has me on!
Girl I asked for a sign just now too and this was the first thing to pop up, God is so good!
Amen 🙏🏿 God is good and always right on time
How r u nowww
This message is for me…I just cried to God looking at my right now situation. I have prayed and fasted I feel as though I am stuck in the same cycle. Thank you Melody, this has helped me to strengthen my faith that my God is working it all out.
He truly is!! i know that feeling, Trudy. Just hold on
Me too, I want to fast but too tired to fast
Same fasting and praying and not really hearing his voice at this time , my problem is having patience and trusting he will work it out even when it seems to dark to tell
This is exactly how I feel. I feel so stuck and lost but I will keep my faith up !!
@@raecoakley5886how r u?❤
God is clearly calling me to trust bigger in every area of my life, as an overthinker with a recently failed relationship and struggling financially, it's difficult to feel like God sees me or that He's working it out. But i know he is. Help my unbelief Lord
Deep down you know hes working. Trust him.
@@nenepearl5883 thank you so much for this
Believe Bigger, the area I want The Heavenly FATHER to work is fear, patient,finance,marriage,contentment,peace & being a good mom &wife🙆🏼♀🙏🏼🙏🏼
Amen
This was right on time! I am believing God for more with my purpose and going back to school at 30. Nothing looks like it’s going to happen but he’s done it once and he will do it again.
I don’t need to have the circumstances align before I believe. I need to walk in faith and obedience and let my feelings catch up.
Yes!
Amen!
That is so well spoken!! I receive this for myself as well. God will surely do it!
Walking by Faith! It's a whole Movie 😂
I love the part where you said the feelings will catch up 😂....so true and powerful.God will show you His Glory
God is calling me to believe him for bigger when it comes to fulfilling my God given purpose & allowing him to guide my steps where ever my career path will ultimately lead🙏🏾💕
Believing this too, amen for both of us 🙏🏾
@@valentinemartha5739 amen!🙏🏾
How r u
When I say Jesus just spoke to me through you! Thank you Lord for this! All of these apply to me but especially doing something that doesn’t make sense! I had to give up jobs to focus on my channel and it’s really been stressing me out. I love that I’m helping women nurture their femininity and grow as Christian women but I’ve had to quit me job to do so and now I literally have no choice but to trust God. I don’t understand it but I too know that I’ll have a great testimony at the end of this!
This video is heaven sent as well,I just quit my job,my salary is late and even when it comes,it won't take care of much.
But from the time I left my job I have my steps directed to people and places,once in a while I look at the storms like Peter but God is quick to focus me on Himself and remind that everything will be okay
You on your purpose babe.
God is calling me to trust in him, I really want to grow spiritually and i am praying for breakthrough financially and spiritually🙌
I’m a 12 year old boy, I used to struggle with me worrying that I’ve committed the unforgivable sin and getting hit at school. In my situation I think God wants me to Trust in Him more❤.
❤❤❤❤❤
Jesus is Awesome! Wow! I’m grateful to see Women of God sharing such wisdom! Thanks for making it Melody! Your wisdom truly is from God! Grateful for you being on this platform! May God continue to provide for you! Much love❤️
thank you so much, sis! thank you for being here. so glad this could encourage you
God is calling me to trust Him bigger in my finances, I just bought a house for me and my kids at age 39 and would like to study part time but my income is just allowing me. Im trusting God to help me. Watching from South Africa❤
Hey fellow south african.
God is calling me to trust Him during my pregnancy, labor/delivery, and postpartum recovery period. I experienced some issues with my first baby, but He brought me through. I know He has the power to do it again and this time with ease. I am trusting Him because I know He can and will. Amen!
hey sis melody im a 22 year old young lady from Namibia , Africa and its been 2 years tht ive been in the sis gang.. this is so encouraging really needed this in the current season im in as a young person..God is calling me to have faith and trust him and also be still through this process . I am beliving in new beginings cause as HE said to me 2023 is the year of REVIVAL.. All love kisses😘☺🥰
God is calling me to trust him in every area of my life
God is calling me to believe bigger and purge my life of physical things I am holding on to. Thank you for this video ❤
There are a few areas I could grow bigger. One thing in particular is my career. I talk myself out of growing bigger by telling myself negative things like “girl you know you can’t handle that” or “you know your not ready”. In reality everyone else knows and encourages me to do that one thing I fear to step out and do. I’m understanding by not exercising what God has created me to be, its wasting his time and talent he spent creating little lo me. I need to believe Bigger and know and trust in God in ever step I take.
Girl go for it! Don't let the enemy keep you stagnant ! You deserve it so go get what's yours💕
God is calling me to trust him more with my calling, career and a Church home seeking him whole heartedly for guidance🙏🏾
I believe GOD is calling me to believe in him in my redemption, salvation, and forgiveness. To trust him in relationships and all things
I woke up today reading Mathew 21:21 and seeing this video today? This is God At Work🙌. Thank you sis 💝
I feel like God wants me to believe bigger... stop accepting the bare minimum and trust that HE wants me to have more, bigger, and better.
Thank you ABBA, my Holy Heavenly Father for speaking directly to my heart, soul & spirit through this beautiful sister in Yashuah Ha'Mashiach! ❤ Forever grateful!
God is calling me to trust him with fixing and mending my broken family. I’ve tried to and it only made me feel worse or back fired. He’s saying to me not lean on my own understanding but his and to give it to him for it’s not my battle to fight. Thanks for the video!! Very helpful!!
God is calling me to trust him and spend quality time with him, thank you “sis” for encouraging us❤
I feel that God is telling me to trust in the process and do not be too quick to take matters into my own hands. Sometimes you don't know where the provision is coming from, but I know that he is telling me not to worry about what you will eat or drink, or what you will wear, for he is the ultimate provider. I am willing to trust in him, let go, and have bigger FAITH.
Believing bigger! I can feel it
Yes and Amen
Forgiveness is a MAJOR area God is pulling me!! It’s hard but he has been stripping those hardened areas❤🎉
God has called me into a temporary season of separation from my relationship. I have held onto it too tightly and now am trying to let go so God can work, and learn in the meantime how to submit to Gods will. I’m taking this time to focus on myself and growing in my faith in God. It is so hard to focus and not worry about what the outcome will be but i am doing my best.
Yes Faith without works is a no no
God told me I need to believe bigger in my finances and for him to heal my heart ❤️😭👏🏽🙏🏽
I need to believe God bigger for the purpose and plan he has for my life. I need to have more faith that where ever he calls me there will be provision and that he will not let me go down the wrong path indefinitely when he knows I'm seeking his face. I need to have more faith that God cares about me AND the things that I care about. That he has not called me to a life of unnecessary suffering, but one of joy and contentment with him. One full of love and peace - Amen
This is so me! I’ve been believing that He knows how to give good things
Same … Today I felt like I finally hear Him saying … “yes beloved, I know you like nice things and I want to give you beyond what you think, but these gifts would become your waves 🌊 . You don’t believe that you are WORTHY of such GREATNESS. You’d get all distracted over defending what you are not that you’d forget to ENJOY ME AND the MIRACLES.“ Now I am pondering this thought and wanting to get out the boat 🛶!
I defenetily struggle with overthinking and trying to figure out things on my own; the how/why/when/who and therefore I felt the need to overplan, of course things don't turn out as we expect, now that the Lord has brought me to a new country-job-church and again things are not as I planned; I am surrendering like never before, fully trusting Him, not knowing what's the purpose for me to be here, I laugh and cry at the same time just thinking on the goodness of God, His plans and thoughts are higer than ours. 🙇🏽♀️
Thank you Melody, this has edified me tremendously!!
I feel as though God is calling me to believe more in what he can do in me and through me if I surrender so he can give me what he has assigned for me.
Girl! When you said you are trusting God with more, but not just more success but more peace. You had me! I'm subscribing!
God is calling me to trust Him with everuthing in my life. ❤
I have to remind myself when I’m feeling things are not happening fast enough that It’s not my timing, it’s his.
I'm trusting God to help build my relationship with Him. And to take control of every situation in my life, for nothing is impossible with Him. And to give me His peace in abundance... Amen... 🙏❤️
Believing more in Forgiveness not for my own sense of peace but for the next person to believe in Gods grace
I struggle with believing that God wants MORE AND BIGGER for me. I know He can for others , but when it comes to me I struggle. I think it’s bc I try to picture what I’m capable of doing “alone” VS what I can do “with Him”. It’s a challenge for me, but I truly want to believe.
God is calling me to completely rely on him and trust that he has me in good hands. He has separated me from many people for a reason and especially in this time of physical pain I’m experiencing. It took me away from work ,friends, and habits that I probably wouldn’t have kicked if this incident had not happened not only is it opening my eyes but it’s an opportunity to be patient and spending more time w God
Wow! So, so good. Needed and noted those 3 signs. Thanks. Now, some tips on what to call your viewers. Maybe "Fam" or "Sibs" like siblings in Christ. Idk...🤷♀️ Just some ideas. Pray on it, I'm sure you will come up with a great one...😊👍🏼 always thank you for using your gifts and allow God to use you and bring us some well needed knowledge. 🙏🏽 you and your precious family be blessed
God is calling me to believe fully in him in every aspect of my life whether big or small circumstances …and in every aspect of my life from what should I wear today to my school and work life .. family and marriage. I have struggled with guilt in asking him for things but I’m learning to change those thoughts . Idk why but I think it’s attributed to my self doubt and subconsciously doubting his will because of my fear of the unknown. I’ve had control issues for so long but I’m growing stronger in faith everyday. Learning that the battle isn’t mine.. it’s the Lords !!! Thank you for sharing I love your videos ❤❤
God is calling me to believe bigger for Success! Success in my classes/schoolwork, success in my ministry( I am a poet) , and success for the spiritual, mental, and physical growth of my family and I and those around me! I Love you Lord! Thank you! I pray that this blesses someone and shows them that if we truly BELIEVE and have faith in what we pray for, that it WILL happen!
May he guide you and be with you
I believe the area GOD is calling me to believe BIGGER is in my actions as I need to learn to take better care of myself and I can only do that if I genuinely believe I can let it go and give it to Him to deliver me from these things that don't serve me anymore.
God has carried me through a season of pruning to shift my focus unto Him and only Him!
In my life i know i could believe bigger in God , when my medically ill child I am a full time caregiver for, is suffering in pain😢.
God is calling me to lean on his understanding instead of others and my own. Currently in my life I have found myself looking for answers from others and coming up with my own when really, the time I spent asking other people questions, I could be spending it with God.
WAITING ON HIM
To trust bigger and better in terms of relationships, especially family. Growing me in patience and Love
This message spoke to me. I'm in my season of waiting, it is so hard not knowing the future, but I'm trusting in God that he will come through. I am also learning more about myself and asking God to help me change my ways to His so that I'm ready for whatever he has for me.
Having Faith and actually believe with my whole heart that the things I am believing God to do will come to pass. These things seem impossible but they are possible. Because nothing is impossible with God. I say it and believe it but then I doubt.
Loving the new transitions on your channel. God bless you and the fam 😘❣️
thank you so much, sis!!
Thank you so much Melody for sharing this video (and great editing btw)!❤
You mentioned that you're posting once a week instead of twice and I have to say, I'll miss your more frequent uploads, but quality over quantity. Your testimony on posting less reminded me how we often think that believing in God for our blessing(s) requires us to do more when sometimes he wants us to DO LESS; to take a step back and let blessings to come through.
I believe God wants me to slow down and work on consistency in certain areas. God is calling me to believe in him for MORE primarily in the area of my (mental/emotional) health, but also my education, my career/dreams, my relationship with my family. He's calling me to work on my faithfulness and self-control with myself and my goals.
I am believing God for bigger,in terms of life and friends,finances, business and life in general.
A lot of things are not looking up right now. But it's not that I don't have direction,I just don't know what to do sometimes...
I am crying in the spirit my heart is overwhelmed with the joy of the Lord y'all today I received my text message from my church because I signed up to work with the kids I also work a shift y'all in a really aggressive call center environment that does not really say yes to a lot of my asked off to be off of work so that I can serve this has been something that I have been praying for and defeating the enemy over the life that God is not pleased with me because I'm not managing my time well well long story short I called off today from work not thinking about the money but thinking about me wanting to be at the event today at church so I understand exactly what you mean when you say it looks not conventional and I think I give you glory Lord God I am listening I am being obedient Lord use me
Amazing message. I’m glad it popped up in my suggested. God is indeed calling me to believe bigger. Nothing is impossible for Him. 🙌🏾
this was super helpful sis, thank you. The Lord is calling me recently to “be like Christ even more” in situations where i was CLEARLY wronged. aka, show an extensive amount of grace vs. pettiness. it can be hard @ times, but i appreciate being able to see i chose to look like CHRIST instead of my FEELINGS.
thank you. 🦋♥️
God has been calling me to believe bigger in the area of relationships. I haven’t had the desire as strong as I do now.
He’s had me delete dating apps, social media pages, no drinking, filtering what I watch and listen to, and celibacy.
There is not a man in sight y’all and I often feel invisible, but I’m trusting!
Amen! Thank you Jesus, God is so good 💖
Amen, the flesh does become weak! The love of Jesus is unmatched & God is greater! Thank you for being real & honest! 🖤 Been following you since your Daniel fast series. 🙌🏾
So I got a word from God on March 1st to leave my job and to draw closer to him. And so then all these like ideas for crafting and TH-cam videos for income-wise has started flowing in my heart but just trust in him and drawing closer to him is the first step and so that's big for me being a single mom having to leave a job I like to tell him my daughter's father you know hey I'm leaving my job without having another job it's scary and so I don't stick to things well and this is a change for me and so doubt has been sitting in but I am believing in God and believing that the holy spirit is going to keep nudging and pushing me and that changes coming and that this plan that God has will not fail
Thanks for this video. I really needed this one. I am believing and trusting God to bring me my future spouse. I am so SICK of being by myself that I let it consume me instead of focusing on God. I try to be happy in my waiting period, but to be honest I am just miserable 😢 I even try to fake being happy and it doesn’t make me feel any better. ❤ Still trusting and believing though.
Same here Trust me you not alone 😢we have to stay focus on God 🙏🏾
I am with you here. At 46 and wanting a baby. I often wonder why God put this in my heart if He wasn't going to give it to me. There was a time when I thought I didn't want to be a mom so I said am I being punished for having those thoughts? I however always wanted a husband and it has not happened yet so I get where you are!!
I need to believe bigger in my health
God is calling me believe him on his calling for my life. There are so many forces (jobs, people) pulling us in all types of directions promising us success and happiness, but ultimate reward comes through Him alone. I’m sacrificing those voices for God’s alone!
Needed this... Thank youu!!
God is calling me to focus more on him than well planned distractions! I trust that he knows what is best for me and will carry out the plan he has for my life. 🙌🏽
God is having me trust Him again! I lost trust in the wilderness so God is showing me I can trust Him through this dark valley me and my family is in. I trust Him at times it can be hard. I’m believing Him to deliver me and my family from witchcraft attacks and all the power of darkness and bondage and a new house!
God is calling me to be more kinder and trusting with my job circumstances. I believe I struggle with negativity and God is asking me to consider my choice of words and be more intentional.
God is calling me to focus on my spiritual path and purpose, despite being in a very uncomfortable environment. He’s also teaching me that not every opportunity is worth it, if God says there’s something better wait. He’s a God of timing and he’s teaching me these things because where he wants me to be/go, I will eradicate that feeling of being alone and persevere. He’s showing that not only is he faithful, he will always provide for me.
Needed This ! Thank you 🙏🏾
I needed this thank you so much ❤
Working on being more humble but also remembering that I’m not like anyone else am to trust God and be confident.
Loved it❤l needed this word
God is calling me to believe bigger in my relationships with friends. Shifting friendships
I love the story of the fish with the coin! Good points about that and Noah and having faith even when it makes no logical sense. I think also about Abraham in this. God promised a child way late in life and many children and grandchildren then says to sacrifice issac. His only son! But abraham obeys. Tells issac God will provide when issac not knowing HE was the sacrifice asks where is the lamb to slaughter. AND HE DID!!! God DID provide a way! Abraham had nothing to see in history that this moment could be worked out or HOW. Would he really kill issac? If he did would God resurrect issac back to life? Abraham obeyed and was about to offer His best and only son…… just like God really did do for US😮❤😊
Such an on time video! Thank you for your wisdom!
So happy I found your channel! 💕 Thank you for the video.
Thank you. I needed this word.
Wow i love this ❤ especially sign 2!
PERFECT timing Melody!!!
This word is so apt for me right now. God bless you sis
Loved the video as usual. It’s funny that you touched on the story of the temple tax in Matthew 17: 24-27 because my pastor recently did a sermon on this. While listening to you talk about how Peter needed faith to follow Jesus’ very weird instructions, I heard the Holy Spirit say “God will never ask you to do anything He hasn’t prepared you for.” Idk about anyone else but to me that’s a word. It was weird that Jesus thought to get the tax from a fish, but it wasn’t weird for him to ask Peter to do it. Before becoming one of the disciples Peter (Simon) was a fisherman who had years of practice. Jesus sent the right man for the job. I say all this to say whatever God is calling you to do, He’s doing it because He knows what’s inside you, even when you don’t know or believe it.
Another great video Melody
Thanks for sharing
Hey Sis, I'm excited about today's video
Hey Roseline!! Thank you for being here, sis!
Thank you for sharing! This truly came at the right time ❤
God is calling me to believe bigger in my finances. This is a tough one as I’m trying to save, budget, pay necessary bills, and spend wisely.
Some of the things I’m being challenged to give makes absolutely no sense. But it’s messages like this that encourages me to trust God
Oh my God 😂 8:08 the fact that you didn't know that verse existed is such a cultural shock moment. 😅 Pastors in my country, Nigeria 🇳🇬 use this verse a lot. Especially when they preach about provision.
This video really encouraged & blessed my spirit!! Definitely believe God wants me to trust him more in my finances❤❤🙏🏾🙏🏾
Needed to see this. ❤. Also girl your editing game gets better and better each vidoe
God bless you, Melody ❤
I needed this today! Thank you so much for sharing! God bless you 😇
