I strongly recommend you to read John Bevere's books (like The Awe of God, The Holy Spirit An Introduction, Breaking Intimidation, Relentless, etc) and Bill Johnson's books! (Like Hosting the Presence, 24 When the Heavens Invade the Earth, Winning the War in your Mind, etc). There's also the Sons & Daughters movement of younger and fiery people that love God! There's the I AM book, Saints, Redefined, Words with God, (these are the books made by one or more members of the Sons & Daughters), and by the way, John Bevere's sons are on it! MAN i tell you, i believe God will powerfuly bless you through it, and those around you!! ❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥

Thanks internet brother, I lost 49.3k tiktok followers, started again and "gained" about 63k. Had some warnings and left that account deactivated, started again and now have 31k tiktok followers and God let me know by this that it's not the superficial numbers that count, it's not the clout like you said "don't chase the clout if you let God out" love that. What a journey it has been. I am starting to focusing on KZbin and Instagram more, haven't let go of tiktok, but I do care less there. And people know me as the tiktoker and they will remember me like that, but from now on new things will keep arising in my journey by God and with God. Amen

The good news should be our comfort. Yes, judgment is coming from sin (nonbelievers), but Jesus paid the price to save you from that and we get to walk in that freedom and not fear!!!! If we diminish that hell exists, then it diminishes the power of the cross. He willingly died to save us because God is so Holy and just. Sin has to have a punishment, that is why Jesus paid the death for us. Ephesians 1:13 can help. The seal of our salvation.

I want to use my art and song writing skills to get somewhere but I've seen the more I try to focus on getting more views on social media the more my focus turns away from God. And it can be so hard to just trust him in bring you to the place you were meant for than creating a place you would like to be, but I see that's what faith is and my fleshly desires is a grain of salt compared to the kingdom waiting for my return.

Am I chasing to find my Spiritual Gifts, to know exactly what The Father would have me to do and where exactly am I supposed to be in this world we’re temporarily occupying. This brings about many questions for me personally. Help me Lord.

ask yourself, in what ways am I doubting God's goodness and choosing my own way? I would also look at Scripture or have people in your life look into the blind spots. That was my story last year. I was chasing after God's heart so much changed in my life and I was like, where is my sin actually? However, we know we are always sinful, but we can definitely grow and walk in the truth as we are sanctified. However, there are always little things. That's why we are in need of a savior!! I hope this made sense and helped!! :)

Hopefully he does make a video, but for now here are some tip. For one If your tired and drained it’s probably because your trying to do so much of it on your own. When God is saying “Give it to me, leave it to me.” In other words you should cast your stresses and worries to him. Also would like to say find time to be in his word. And of course get some physical sleep more, as we are designed to rest up. Overall be consistent in prayer and continue to build your relationship with the Lord. And you’ll notice the increase of joy and peace Jesus will give you!
