The Shift: Becoming a Woman Who Moves When God MovesSample

God has a different thought about your view, and He already knows there’s better on the other side. His thought is not God’s first time improving views by shifting people. God thinks about your better when He looks at you because He sees you through Jesus, the Anointed One.

“For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ.” 2 Corinthians 5:21

When God looked at humanity, He had a different thought about it. He didn’t give up; he thought about a new solution. What was it? His thought was JESUS.

Jesus was the SHIFT needed to bring you and every view you would ever have into alignment with His will. God released His divine Son, Jesus, into this world through a SHIFT from heaven to Mary’s womb. Jesus was the SHIFT that makes a different view possible for you today.

Throughout His assignment, Jesus remained faithful because He knew there was purpose in His process. When Jesus died, He was resurrected, and Mark 16:19 says:

“When the Lord Jesus had finished talking with them, he was taken up into heaven and sat down in the place of honor at God’s right hand.”

There was better on the other side for Jesus. He was moved from one place to a better place because of a SHIFT of God! He moved when God moved, step by step, and elevated to this better place. When God moves, we move — just like that!

As you look at your view, I want to acknowledge you may have been in this process for what feels like a long time. However, be encouraged because it is not in vain. There is a purpose in your process. There is another side to disappointment, a discouragement, a letdown, or loss. God intends to shift you today, giving you JOY.

“You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing. You have taken away my clothes of mourning and clothed me with joy…” Psalm 30:11

David was rejoicing in the scripture above because God had shifted him. God shifts us to be in alignment with Christ. When we are in Christ, we are made right with God. There is a reason to rejoice in this because we can see that just as God’s pattern was applied to David’s life, and as God’s pattern was applied to Jesus’s life, God’s pattern is also applied to our lives. You’re about to be moved from one place to another because of a SHIFT, and God’s pattern will produce purpose in your life.

Today’s Affirmation:

A deeper joy is being planted in your heart today, and you feel good because of it. You have a keen insight there is more to this view, and as the Son shines His light on your life, you are changing —transforming even—into the image of Christ. You smile differently, you shine differently, your glow lights up rooms. You are becoming a woman who moves when God moves.

Daily Question of the Day:

Are you willing to trade in your old view for a new one, even if it requires God to change you?
