I'm in LABOR!!!!!!!

So, this was one of my facebook statuses today:


I don't know who this is for, but baby........YOU GOTTA' PRESS! I dare you to open up your mouth & shout! Praise God for the hurt, Praise God for the pain, Praise God for the uncomfortableness, Praise God for not having a job right now, Praise God for your singleness, Praise God for being misunderstood, Praise God for the tears.....whatever your case, JUST PRESS! The BLESSIN' is in the PRESSIN'! ITS IN YOUR PRAISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!


From that status, God revealed this to me.......


Pressing & Pushing are the same! In order to PUSH, you have to bare down on something & PRESS it. Just as a woman is in labor, she must press & push in order to give birth to her miracle, her blessing! The same goes for US! When you go through the "labor pains" of life, sometimes they seem unbearable. You constantly do the work (labor) only to be frustrated, disappointed, discouraged, and more.....and truth be told, many of us give up before we"see" our blessings come to pass. But in order to give birth, many women HAVE TO FIRST ENDURE THE PAIN, and the same goes for us once more! God has so much more in store for us, and even though many of us can't physically see it right now, we must keep pressing & pushing! Your breakthrough is in your PRAISE! In spite of what you are facing, what you're currently "going THROUGH", or what it looks like, you have to give our RIGHT NOW GOD, a RIGHT NOW PRAISE for the miracle that's about to take place! Don't wait until the battle is over, shout now! Shout right now through the tears, the pain, the disappointments, the misunderstandings, etc.!


If a mother doesn't press down & push the baby out, then she risks her miracle DYING! (Glory hallelujah for this word y'all, lol!) Don't be moved by what it looks like, for we walk by FAITH and NOT by site! God has implanted wonderful things inside of you, but in order to get to the next level & witness those awesome blessings, you have to first endure the labor pains, press, & then push to see the light!


I pray this word blessed someone's soul as much as it did mine! Now I'm about to eat a late breakfast, lol!!!!!!! THANK YOU LORD FOR BEING SO AWESOME! We have to keep pressing! The BLESSIN' is in the PRESSIN'!


Thanks for reading!!! :-)
Don't give up! You're almost there! I know it hurts, but you must TRUST God with your LIFE! Be abundantly blessed!

  1. WHOOO!!! Good word girl...good word!!! I can apply this to my life like this:
    God has been dealing with me on not letting small things irritate me so much. Whenever I do something b/c it's right not b/c it "feels" right, there is a suffering in my flesh. It hurts. But I am growing spiritually. Eventually, it won't hurt and I can reap the fruit of that suffering. So, when I want to get upset, irritated and allow my emotions to rule me, I have to press and push and bite the bullet knowing that my labor is not in vain.I WILL see the fruit and growth. Who knows, God may even have a blessing waiting 4 me.

    Thank you for allowing God to speak through you ^_^

  2. And look at you! Now THAT'S a good word sis, lol! That will preach right there, lol! Glory hallelujah. If we just remain calm in the midst of turmoil, we WILL benefit from it. Sometimes I just want to yippidy yap at the mouth, especially when others are being hateful, rude, and mean....BUT I remain calm & allow God to deal with it. And what does he do??? SHOW UP every time, lol! He is amazing, and I give all glory back to HIM! :-)
