We must allow God to prune us. Though it doesn't feel good to the flesh, pruning creates life and fruitfulness. It allows us to maturity and reach our calling. Let us submit to God and the changes He is creating in us.

In this episode Pastor Josh talks about people from history whose obedience and pursuit of God shifted the world and the church. In the same manner, the people that God is seeking today are the people who have that same drive and spirit, where no matter what obstacles or inconveniences or challenges come, they will pursue God no matter what. Let us resolve in our hearts to be one of those people; Let us pursue God no matter the cost, then supernatural things will follow.

We must realize the power behind our prayers and obedience. So many great things are happening and will continue to happen in this country because of the seeds sown by the body of Christ. We cannot let ourselves get distracted by seeking the recognition of man or pursing riches. We have an audience of one, so let us seek that audience with Him. He will not forget our seeds and obedience.

Do not be disheartened; even if the wicked pull together all of their resources, they will not be able to stop this great move of God. Wherever you are right now, that is your assignment. Let us be sure to be faithful in every area of our lives.

In this episode, Pastor Cristina talks about recent prophecies that have been released and our identities in Christ. The Body of Christ has been held back because we have not been finding our identities in Christ. When we face the Lord, we will not be doing so as the wife of our husbands, or the son of our mothers, or however man sees us, but we will be doing so in the identity God has given us, as who we are called to be.

Let us determine to put God first this year. The calling of God is not something of our own choosing, it is something that is thrust upon us. We need to rearrange our lives to make room for obeying God, it must be our priority. We should enter into the Lord's presence and ask Him what we should do, making no assumptions. We must build things up on stone, or they will not withstand the storm.

Consider how you spend the majority of your time; what does it say about your priorities? We cannot follow God at our own convenience or expect Him to work in certain ways. We must prioritize Him and the instructions He is giving us. The best way we can express our love and gratefulness to Him is by receiving what He has for us and stepping into our calling.

The biggest challenge we is ourselves, not Satan. Our mindsets have to change; remember that everything is an issue of the heart. We must allow the Holy Spirit to nurture and teach us. God is going to do things suddenly, as soon as we are ready for them to manifest. So ask God to make you ready.
