A Minute WITH GOD

THE QUIET FIGHT

Inside my mouth, a quiet fight repeats itself.
My teeth stand strong, disciplined, unyielding.
My tongue—soft, curious, always talking—
forgets how close danger lives.

They clash.

Power meets expression.
Silence meets speech.
The teeth do what teeth do.
The tongue talks too much.

A quick bite.
A sharp reminder.

The tongue swells,
but it is not the tongue that suffers alone.
I am the one who feels the pain—
when I speak,
when I eat,
even when I try to stay quiet.

It’s strange how parts of me can fight
and pretend it’s nothing,
while I carry the ache everywhere I go.

I never mean to hurt myself,
yet strength wounds softness,
and my own voice bleeds inside me.

So I laugh a little at the irony—
my mouth at war with itself—
but I listen closely to the lesson:

When power attacks expression,
the whole soul suffers.

I am both the teeth and the tongue,
and healing begins
the moment I choose peace within myself.

Inspired by experience.

🛑 STOP ASKING FOR PERMISSION TO MOVE

Most of us are waiting for a "green light" when God has already given us the Great Commission.
In 2026, the breakthrough isn't coming to those who are waiting for the perfect circumstances; it’s coming to those who are willing to "FLY"—Faithful, Loving, and Yielding.

1. Your Pain Has an Explanation
If your foundation feels like it’s shaking, remember what Charles West once said: “We turn to God for help when our foundations are shaking, only to learn that it is God shaking them.” He isn’t trying to break you; He is trying to shake off everything that doesn't belong in your next season. Your survival isn't just a story—it is the blueprint for your testimony.

2. The "Locked In" Mentality
Spiritual growth doesn't happen by accident. You don’t "drift" into holiness or "stumble" into your purpose.
* Don't just have a resolution; have a resolve.
* Treat your time like "moral territory." Every hour you spend is an investment in the person God called you to be.
* The world is full of "casual adherents," but God is looking for the focused.

3. Trust the Department of Miracles
David Jeremiah reminds us: “Trust God for the impossible—miracles are His department. Our job is to do our best, letting the Lord do the rest.” Stop trying to do God’s job. You handle the obedience, and let Him handle the outcome.
> The 2026 Mandate: > "Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?" — Isaiah 43:18-19
>
Whatever you survived in the last year was not wasted. It was the training ground for the authority you are about to walk in. Don't waste another year on "less" when God has called you to "more."
