The Shift: Becoming a Woman Who Moves When God Moves預覽

We’ve covered a few wise steps to become women who move when God moves. We are aware of our words, we are responding instead of reacting, we’re activating NOW faith, and we’re even coming to God so He can give us rest. For the remaining three days of our study, we will cover the benefits of the SHIFT. Today, let’s discuss how the SHIFT enlightens you.

In the Bible, one excellent person to observe who experienced enlightenment because of a shift is Moses. Moses watched sheep in the wilderness when an angel appeared in a burning bush. Moses went to investigate when he heard God calling him by name. When he arrived at the bush, God told Moses who He was, and Moses hid his face.

Over the years, God worked with Moses, shifting him into his purpose. Then, this happens a few chapters later, in Exodus 34:29:

“When Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the covenant law in his hands, he was not aware that his face was radiant because he had spoken with the Lord.”

Before the SHIFT, Moses hid his face in God’s presence and tried to commune with God in the darkness. After the SHIFT, Moses stood boldly in God’s presence, and his face was radiant. He was no longer hiding his face. Moses could commune with God in the light—God’s supernatural light—and be blessed.

There are two important realizations here:

• Even when you don’t realize it, God is watching you: God lit the bush on fire because he knew Moses would see it. He was looking at Moses before Moses even knew he was being watched. God is always watching over you; you are never alone.
• The external always reflects what’s happening internally: When Moses came down from Mount Sinai, he wasn’t even aware that GOD’S LIGHT was reflected in how he showed up. God’s internal light was reflected on Moses’ face, the external. Moses’s internal shift in God’s presence resulted in something external that nobody could miss.

I love the Bible because Moses didn’t even know people saw an outward change reflective of an inward SHIFT. You may have been looking for an outward change—you’ve been waiting for a car, a home, better health, a husband, a job, and all the while, God has been conducting an inward shift in your heart, your mind, and in your words. It’s going to create results nobody can miss in your life!

It's going to happen suddenly! All of a sudden, you look different. All of a sudden, you speak differently. All of a sudden, you move differently. All of a sudden, you’ll have this glow. Everything on the outside becomes enlightened because of the SHIFT on the inside.

Today’s Affirmation:

The better way is now your norm. What used to be your ceiling is now your floor. Your face is radiant because of your time with God. He IS the source of your radiance. He is your contentment. He is your full joy. He has gifted you with wisdom and enlightenment. As you stand in God’s presence, waves of refreshing peace wash over you. You feel His love. You are radiating in His presence. You are satisfied.

Question of the Day:

Where is God creating an internal shift in you?
