walk on the water - britt nicole

You look around
It's staring back at you
Another wave of doubt
Will it pull you under
You wonder

What if I'm overtaken
What if I never make it
What if no one's there?
Will you hear my prayer?

When you take that first step
Into the unknown
You know that He won't let you go


So what are you waiting for?
What do you have to lose?
Your insecurities try to alter you

You know you're made for more
So don't be afraid to move
Your faith is all
It takes in you
You can walk on the water too

So get out
and let your fear fall to the ground
No time to waste
Don't wait
Don't you turn around and miss out
Everything you were made for
I know you're not sure
So you play it safe
Try to run away

If you take that first step
Into the unknown
He won't let you go

(Step Out)
Even when a storm hits
(Step Out)
Even when you're broken
(Step Out)
Even when your heart is telling you, telling you to give up
(Step Out)
When your hope is stolen
(Step Out)
You can't see where you're going
You don't have to be afraid

So what are you waiting for?

Yall are going to think I'm crazy, three posts in one day. But I just couldn't leave this unsaid. READ THE OTHER TWO POSTS FIRST!! :))

The issue of doubt really hits home for me. I was very tearful a few minutes ago (having to deal with the first two posts today). GOD never fails, people. NEVER.

I went to His Word again, seeking refuge from the bombardment of Satan's tactic of doubt. GOD showed me a verse (I was so joyful I forgot to see where it was at, so I don't have a scripture reference to share this time) that basically said that He was going to stop Pharoah's sword from hurting me.

Okay, I believe You now, GOD. :))
Why did I ever doubt?
GOD is SO good!

Clarifying the last post.

I'm not saying that in any way that the Bible can be used for evil, because it is the complete and perfect Word of GOD. To clarify the last post, I just meant that the Devil was twisting things around to use in his way, if that makes sense? Satan even knows GOD and trembles. In the same way Satan tempted Jesus. If he tempted Jesus, I know he is bound to tempt every one of us. Especially when you give everything over to GOD to be used for His glory.

Jesus, I pray that Satan stops discouraging me. I am all YOUR's, Jesus.

* I wasn't sure if perhaps the last post sounded bad, so I just wanted to clarify my thoughts.

Doubt

Don't you hate it when you doubt something? I mean when you know, that you know, that you KNOW that GOD has said it, and you doubt it anyway. It's a human weakness. We doubt.
I don't know why doubt was creeping up in my heart. But I do know it is only from Satan. And like normal humans I started to hear it. This past week I have been reading my Bible more. That is a BIG step for me. I don't know about you, but it seems when I want to read my Bible I don't have time or something else comes up. But I've really tried this past week to read GOD's word each day and spend devotional time with Him. His sheep know His voice.
Have you ever opened up the Bible and said, GOD speak to me? I once heard someone say that you always need to pray before you read the Bible, so that GOD can help you discern what He is saying.
Well, today I opened up the Bible and there was a verse that was very discouraging to me. I prayed and told Satan to stop it. He is trying SO hard to discourage me. SO hard. He is trying so hard that He is even using my careful attention to GOD's word in a way to pull me in. BUT he's not going to do it. But then I prayed, asking GOD to show me what He wanted me to see. I prayed to be able to discern what GOD was saying to me. And when I opened up the Bible, I saw, "1 Samuel 17:26, GO, and the Lord be with you." WOW. What a word from GOD. A few minutes later (haha, please don't think I'm crazy, but I felt GOD telling me to not be afraid to open up His word again and look with discernment from Him) and it opened up to 2 Samuel 14:7, "And may the Lord your GOD be with you". WOW again...
I take it that GOD is reinstating exactly what He has told me a couple of months ago, last weekend, and a few minutes earlier.
What I've shown you, GO! - word from GOD.
It is SO beautiful to me how in each instance GOD has used the same words.
#1 When GOD spoke to me in an audible voice it was, "WHAT I've SHOWN YOU, GO!"
#2 When the lady prophesied to me last weekend she said "What GOD has shown you, He is going to make a way"
# 3 1 Sam. 17:26 "GO, and the Lord be with you."
and #4 2 Sam. 14:7 "And may the Lord your GOD be with you."

Will you pray with me that Satan stops bombarding me with discouraging thoughts? Because I know that GOD is doing something mighty with what He has spoken to me. And Satan is in overdrive right now, trying to stop it.
Thanks, love you guys!

'Til I see YOU...

The greatest love that anyone could ever know
That overcame the cross and grave to find my soul
And 'til I see You face to face and grace amazing takes me home

And with all I am my soul will bless Your name
