You're Uncomfortable for a Reason, God is Redirecting You | Melody Alisa

[@MelodyAlisa]

hey sis! Let us know below - has God ever redirected your path?! I VERY recently went through a season of God redirecting me when it comes to the content I create here on my KZbin channel! For quite a while, I was posting more testimony-focused content (the Truth Is series) & more lifestyle-related videos (vlogs & such) but slowly the views were going down and I started feeling like I was at a roadblock creatively. I also stopped collaborating with God on my videos in the way that I did previously (hello self-sufficiency). This all was God re-directing me to create THIS style of content again. True faith-focused videos that can encourage you and point you to God. These types of videos cause me to truly collaborate with the Lord (I mean prayer, Bible time, studying, etc.) and I know that it's all by His design. Not only are these videos being received so well by you guys (views are up like crazy) but I feel so 'on-fire' and fulfilled in a way I hadn't in a while! So all that goes to say - To God be the GLORY and yay for a good ole redirection!

[@BecomingBossC]

I enjoy the vlogs, testimonies and faith-focused videos, Melody. 🙂 Follow Him and His will for sure!

[@oneof7billion627]

Omg, I truly truly remember that season for you. Look at God! 1 touch from the master can bring our greatest blessing(s).

[@akinijames3410]

I told God why he is so hilarious.....The first couple minutes you spoke on how God doesn't give us a game plan of every year or so. And on Sunday listening to Union church service (Take off your shoe) he covicted me of expecting him to move in this particular order. So thanks for listening to him on your season of change. #confirmation

UPDATE 10/10/22: The job offer fell through unfortunately. Since accepting the job back in August, so much as has changed (disappointment one after the other). I even went to visit the state just 2 weeks ago now, but when it came to crunch time, they were switching up the terms of the offer and after much thought and prayer I declined the job. I feel much more at peace now then I did throughout the hiring process (I have never had such an anxiety filled and disorganized hiring experience before). I believe God has something better in store, but this was definitely a good learning experience. August ‘22: Wow, this is crazy. I literally accepted a job offer on the other side of the country that is an amazing opportunity but literally so outside of my comfort zone. I was in turmoil all weekend thinking I should tell them I can’t do it, I won’t move. I opened up KZbin and this is the first thing I see. Wow, God is good!

Same my sister. I asked God today for a clear yes or no sign to move or stay. I've heard a ****lot**** of messages about new doors and transitions. This is yet another and so is your very comment. I'd never heard of this channel and was scrolling after a long grueling conversation with someone and a girl popped up about being distracted with a verse I needed... And like 5 videos later here's this video and your comment. I bless God for His timely response via her video and your comment. God bless you and everything connected to you/surrounding you sister. May you feel, see, know, and experience everything God has for you in your right now and your future. I'd love an update on how everything is going, maybe a *video* of your own and tag us in it. Anyhow, God bless you sister, I pray you feel God's warmth, comfort, peace, and prosperity in every form and facet regarding your newness and His new blessings that are overtaking you.

I feel like I am being redirected right now. I am a single mother of 4. I’ve never really worked before because my husband was very abusive, controlling, jealous, narcissistic and didn’t want me to work. When I would work he would park outside my work and scream in public that I was probably sleeping with my boss. I tried to stick it out so I could have something of my own but it got unbearable and humiliating so I left. Years went by till I forced to open a boutique of my own and he would come into my shop and if men were shopping he would say I was sleeping with them but this time I didn’t let it get to me because I had already experienced this behavior in the past. When that didn’t work he would come into my boutique and take money out of the register and threaten to burn my business down. I ended up closing down because I couldn’t afford to pay rent. I would pray to God to make him leave and years later God answered my prayers. He left to his home country. Even then I couldn’t work because he would threaten to only pay half my bills and I knew at my age just starting out to work I wouldn’t be able to pay half of my kid’s education, rent, food and utilities. So out of fear of putting my kids through hard times I carried on as a stay at home mom while he would send money for bills and food Then that started to dwindle down and some times I won’t have money for anything not even food for my baby 😢 I know this is God’s redirection but I don’t know where to start, where to go or what I even can do. Somehow I think I still believe the words my husband would say that I was nothing and I’m useless and who would want to be with a woman with 4 kids. My prayer is to find or create a job where I can work from home and be fully still there for my children but be able to be financially independent without ever again having to beg another human for mine and my children’s basic needs. My faith has been tested. I pray for direction and to feel joy again. I haven’t felt happy in so long. My kids deserve a happy mom😢 Please pray with me for my situation. Thank you so much and God bless you for always sharing content that keeps my faith still strong in God after everything 🙏🏽

[@LuminousMia]

Yes, amen! I was feeling like this too, I'm so grateful for God's word and his wisdom. ❤

[@DivaDupri]

I have a strong urge to put God first in my Life. I'm leaving everybody behind including family. People that's hindering my blessings and hindering my growth. It's going to be God and then me. No one else. God didn't come this far with me just to leave me. He saved my life a few months ago, So I know there's more work that I have to do on this earth. 🙏 I'm giving my whole situation to God. I'm not going to fight for a place that I don't want to be in. I've been getting pure confirmation that it's time for me to go.

I definitely felt God making me uncomfortable in 2019; he gave me plenty of opportunities to change my situation but I just decided to push through the uncomfortable feelings. In 2020, he forced me out of that discomfort and into a new season. This list is SPOT ON.

[@BrittbyBit]

I could cry! This is my testimony as well. He kept showing me that I was putting my business above Him. I kept putting it above the Rest that He was trying to give me. This year, He took my business away. I wish I reacted better but I was upset with Him. I still have questions but He did what He did for my good. Glory on to Him!

@@Ffuhr Hi. This was such a heartbreaking time for me because God took away my idol. I didn’t realize that I made it into an idol though. Now almost 2yrs later, I’m glad He did take it. The Lord ended up leading me a new state the following yr(2023). If my business had grew successfully then I wouldn’t have left. Things haven’t been easy since moving but God is teaching me long suffering and to trust in Him. I’m even thinking about going back into business. Long story short, God’s plans are for your benefit.

[@Ffuhr]

@@BrittbyBit amen my recent idol he’s pruning off me that he js gave me the wisdom to understand why I keep feeling this disconnection is holding on too ppl I know to trust him now that he’s all that I need and to passs this test so I can step into a new season . It was hard coming to agreement w that truth but he’s trustworthy!! I prayed for u that God will help u to remain still and trust in him. Him telling u to move to a new state is already a blessing, that’s such a big thing that he’s moving in the physical and not just the spiritual in ur life.

[@MoniqueeeeJ]

I’ve been really wanting to rent my own apartment because of the emotional toxicity my household carries. My mom does not want me moving out but she continues treating me differently and it’s just so much. MENTALLY I’m not there. Crying to much, feeling so dark, the black sheep of the family. A lot…I’ve had so many opportunities of moving out but my mom would either beg me to stay at home or she would try to black mail me and then when I stay she treats me even worse. She always tells me that I’m going to be below my sister and I won’t make it..I start believing it the more I stay home. This home is not a home. I need to get out!

[@malloryvanhorn]

[@thetrdrlg]

I can always tell when God is redirecting me. Provision dries up for sure. I've been at my current job for 9 months and I literally have nothing else to do or learn in this role. I know God is redirecting me and encouraging me to start a business He gave me 3 years ago. I even tried applying for other jobs and in the past it's always so easy for me to get a job. But this time around, I'm getting no's and not selected emails left and right. I know what time it is. Thank you sis!

I’ve been praying & asking God about moving. I also realized that in the Bible, God relocated a lot of people because there they were able to fulfill their purpose. So I just tell God, I want to go to a city/ state that’s after God’s heart. I’m from Chicago, so I definitely want out. I also think about my future (husband/ children) because where I go now will affect their/ our future.

[@ChaeBeauty]

I recently packed up my entire life, gave away all of my furniture, and prepared to move across the country. Then God basically told me to go back to where I’d just came from. So now I’m just confused about what I should be doing. The unknown is giving me major anxiety. But God has been sending me signs such as this video to let me know He’s trying to communicate with me.

[@iamLaShaundda]

@ChaeBeauty I know this was a year ago, but oh! How I'm going to bed satisfied! I thought it was a little throwed off for God to give me a vision of the ministry/business, then have me get started in setting up the business, although He sent the right people to help me! Went all the way to give it an EIN, locked the business name in...found good people to do business with. Just for Him to say, "Drop it! We will come back to it. " Oh, how I love Jesus! I thought it was just me!...

I needed to hear this . Started a job back in January but I’m uncomfortable, unmotivated and drained because I’m still not working in my field . Tbh I don’t work in my field due to fear, all because I don’t have any experience. Finally I’m taking the risk and Started job hunting few weeks ago , coincidentally a HR site which arranges resumes popped up in my feed , I contacted them for help , now I gotta find that job and apply . My desire is to find that job , training offered , remote, better pay , nice culture to work with. So I can start working on my personal path ( apartment, car , relationship) . I trust God

[@thepalmofdeborah2110]

I was convinced from a young age I will be a lawyer , fought so hard and made it to law school but never made it out of law school a lawyer .😂😂 Instead frustration, depression, one issue after another wouldn’t let me concentrate I got angry with family quit law school and literally just got lost . Denounced God for abandoning me, partied so hard all weekend just to make sure I am not sober enough for guilt to make me go to church on Sunday. All this while God never left, I kept receiving prophecies left right and centre from (2014 to 2017 )of how I am gifted , I will be a great teacher all of which I denied. God went as far as sending someone to preach to me in the club.I was in Malaysia God sent someone all the way from Australia to remind me that he loves me in the club.🙌🏾🙌🏾 She said to me since you didn’t want to come cross over with me in church , I will bring the church to the club for you .😢(2019 into 2020) Those were the words that melted my hardened soul. The next day I wept for hours for absolutely what until now I don’t know. She prophesied into my life , promised me that the hardships end in 2019, I needed to move out of where I lived then, she said once you get rid of your current circle , God will plant the people he wants to use to elevate you immediately and all will change . I agreed , shortly after lockdown started in Malaysia around Feb 0r March 2020. That happens to be the day I reached out to a friend for intercession. Fasting started , we literally fasted almost the entire lockdown , we heard God talk to us loud and clear I never believed I could encounter God that strong before. Fast forward, The lockdown down laws got relaxed abit and I got a job right way. My friend asked me to move in with her.Now I am in Bible school doing theology, I recently got reminded about teaching by another prophet. I am praying for God to perfect my character and give me the confidence to exercise what he requires of me. And also the eyes to see myself the way he sees me.i still have so much self doubt. So brethren learn from me, don’t waste your years chasing the wrong thing once you hear God’s voice ,follow his guidance so you will bear less burden. I didn’t cast my cares on him and thought I would figure things out .Here I am just turned 30 2days ago just starting the journey I should have started since I was 21. He had already told me.

[@ARighteousLife]

This is happening to me. Studied finance, succesfully finished school, started working an office job in accounting, this is is my third job in 3 years and they just told me last week that they won't be extending my contract but they will give me until the end of the contract (in two months) to find another job since they know i am a single mom. But i also recently ( 3 months) started serving im my church in the sunday school. And i remember 6 years ago someone has spoke that they saw a vision of me with many children. I received a similar prophecy last year again. And now i'm about to be out of a job and have zero desire to look for yet another office job (i hate it ) and feel as if God is leading me to get a 2nd degree in Child care (you need a diploma here in the Netherlands to work with children). My will is completely different than God's will. I would have never thought in a million years that i will be in child care.

[@justashley4017]

This year I got a job making decent money and I am able to work from home. Sounds great right? Well I got 2 new neighbors in my building that has turned my peaceful dwelling into an unpleasant one. Between the weed smoking and the loud music, I feel so tortured to the point of tears. I feel like this is God saying hey, your getting comfortable here and this is not where your supposed to be. Well with rent increasing and home prices increasing I got anxiety about being able to afford to move. So I decided to lean more into God as opposed to operating in my flesh to try to figure out my next move myself. So keep me in you all’s prayers 🤍.

This video definitely made me reflect on the time that God redirected my path. As a child, I loved fashion and writing, but as I got older and went to college, I started to explore photography and decided that photojournalism was the path I wanted to take. So, when it came to choosing a course to study for three years at university, initially, I had Creative Writing and Journalism. Then last minute, I decided to change it to Photography because I relied on my self-sufficiency rather than trust what God had stored for me. I had the interview and showed them some of my work. When I got an email back from the university, they told me they couldn't accept me on the course because I didn't have enough experience in the field. This led me to feel lost because I thought I messed up my chances of going to university as I still didn't have a course or a university to go to. So I was praying to God asking Him where do I go from here? Then the next day, my mum told me about a different university I had never heard of, but I checked it out and went to the open day and instantly, I fell in love with it and writing. They offered Creative Writing, which touched on all areas of creativity, from poetry and storytelling to screenwriting and journalism. I applied, did my exams, and by God's grace, I met the grade requirements and could go to the university to study Creative Writing. Because of God's redirection, during those three years of university, my childhood love of fashion came back, and now I study at the world's most renowned fashion schools, doing what I love: fashion and writing combined together - Fashion Journalism. All Glory goes to God for his redirection!

I've been called by the Lord to this & had such huge excitement for the new journey. What caught me off guard is Totally losing my appetite due to fasting, leading up to mission. I've got little strength or energy and unable to eat full meals most days now that the fast is over. Please pray my appetite & health returns. I was filled with great anxiety for the last few days before moving into mission and into a new home with someone I barely know. Also leaning totally on Jesus for financial provision. Please pray for the anxiety to go in Jesus name. I have two days to get well & be restored, before mission officially starts.

I was in school for 4 years preparing to enter the healthcare field. My major changed a few times but all were in alignment with healthcare. I really thought that’s where I was gonna be , Almost immediately after graduating, I felt the redirection. It came in the place of me just not being able to get any job in the field , I thought it was just me but didn’t realize this was actually redirection and it led to God pushing me into entrepreneurship. All in the same sense that I thought I was moving to a certain state but felt like God is completely directing me to a place I never thought I’d go. It has been very uncomfortable, the building process and sometimes I am like did I hear God correctly 😭 but I’m still pushing forward knowing and believing that as long as I’m surrendered and seeking him, he will always guide, redirect and provide where he sends me.

Long story short we recently went on a vacation somewhere, simply because my brother was funding the entire trip. It was in a state that I had ZERO, and I do mean ZERO interest in going to. I had always imagined it being a HORRIBLE idea for a vacation. The amount of ways and times that God spoke to me there...still makes my bones chill. I immediately felt the desire to move there. I kept it to myself, until my kids came to me one day, and told me they had something they just HAD to get off their chest. Sure enough, they had been feeling the exact tug from God, that I had been feeling. We have SUCH an amazing life where we are at now. A church that is absolutely hard to find today. Great Christian friends. Pretty good jobs. Family. We hate the thought of having to find this all over again, but this 'TUG"...this constant "NUDGING" that God is giving us, we just can't shake it. Just wondering if you have any thoughts?

I had a hardship come on me and I said "Oh well, I will just find another apartment in this same neighborhood." I did. I paid the deposit and first month rent. 2 days before I was to move, fraudsters hacked into my bank account and took every dime I had! The moral of this story is: If God says it is time for you to leave where you are and go where I sent you.... you can stop trying to be boss of your life and give in to God, or you can maybe lose everything you have acquired in the last 3 years and have to move anyway!

God has recently redirected me to stop working a 9-5 and transition into full time Entrepreneurship. I am trusting that his hand is all in it. He is better than good, so I know he will lead and guide me.

[@shardaibryant9217]

Well I went from daycare owner/married with kids/stay at home mom, now trying to be a grant writer. I never knew I would be on this path. Yet I never knew I would be a mom let alone a stay at home mom.

[@MelodyAlisa]

wow! what a redirection! I love that you didn't see it coming and how obedient you've been to the turns. do you feel like the things you learned as a daycare owner & stay a home mom have prepared you at all for what you're tackling now as a grant writer?

[@valentine_b_ndlovu]

Hallelujah 🙌🏼God is redirecting me right now. The water in the brook of my job of 15 years has dried up,, it’s time to move, I was sad in the beginning and wanted to fight to stay because of being afraid of change…God used your testimony of your move from corporate to entrepreneurship to encourage me, and your journey since keeps me brave to allow God to take control of each day as I listen to hear where is He taking us. I am a sole bread winner responsible for my 3 daughters and extended family and an adopted daughter, so you can imagine how scary this season is to me…but God gives me a brand new portion of grace and peace daily through his word and care. Through his servants like you. I am looking forward to the next chapter of our lives which I know will be bigger and better than what we had 🙏🏽I trust God🌺

[@asiahwilliams978]

This time last year, I had been assisting a designer in my hometown of VA, who happened to also be a family member. I was doing administrative work, publicist work, a bit of creative direction. We were flowing together well! We grew close and he is spiritually gifted. But for some reason unknown to me, there was a sudden shift after nearly two years in. I felt like I was being ghosted. I was literally told "I've been super busy with my other business" for weeks on end and "I've been putting my focus back into youth ministry". This was all totally understandable, but I couldn't help but feel like maybe I'd done something wrong. A month goes by without any requests or meetings, and a few months later we ran into each other as they were approaching a fashion event. At that moment, I knew my assistantship had come to an end, which was a bit devastating as I had been willing to go the distance, help build the brand, and lean it to new path that would allow me to be a creative leader within said company. We'd talk often about my growth and my potential for C-Suite status. For months I struggled with the realization that I was no longer a part of that plan, and that the little bit of work I was doing in the fashion space (my passion) halted, but I also did a lot of self-reflection while drawing near to God. I then went through a shift of my own, and it wasn't pretty. God was showing me things about me that I needed to work on, needed to change, and it hurt. After three months of solitude and prayer (and into the new year), my life had been redirected. I realized there were some dreams and visions that I had abandoned. And God started showing out. From my youth, I wanted to be a fashion editor at a magazine, living in NYC. I haven't quite reached that goal, but my career is taking shape and even morphing into something else. Following my isolation period, I accepted a job offer for 75k, working in partnerships (affiliate marketing) for a roster of top lifestyle publications, which came with a move to NYC and I landed at a great apartment. I got engaged. I picked up SEVERAL freelance opportunities within the fashion and entertainment space. I was even accepted into startup founder pre-acceleration program (I'm starting a business ya'll)! I'm grateful for this redirection. I think I got a bit too comfortable with someone else's dream, and that's just not what he had for me. They say rejection is God's protection, and sometimes it's protection from your own actions, your own insecurities, your own thoughts. Thank God for Redirection & thank you for this message!

[@Flavoredwithfavor]

He is doing it now. He released me from a 7 yr dead marriage. Remove me from my teaching job of save 7yrs. Ironically, my employer and my husband had similar attitudes and of course I reacted the same. We sold our house. God providef the original down payment and multiplied it tenfold in profit. I asked God to go with me in looking for a new condominium and he led me to a place that allowed me to consolidate my storage fees my garage everything all under one roof for a lesser price. He has since had me in a holding pattern and has been providing mana month after month and my prayer is that he's about to make the turn for me

[@NatalieKaranja]

Provision dried up, The Lord spoke. Wow soo good! This was so timely for me.

[@msliberated3899]

Lol! I remember when I was a baby new believer the Father said Don’t get comfortable here, you move when I say move, lol the Ludacris song when I move you move just like that came to my mind, and boy has he done it! It’s all good.

[@harrypotterlover3209]

I can feel this so much right now. I thought the career I am in now was for me, but now I'm not so sure. I do feel God is redirecting me to a new direction in my career, but it honestly makes me afraid to take that direction because of the unknown even if I don't like the position I am in now.

[@debbiebullard2090]

I’ve tried leaving my current job a few times. I was even turned down for jobs I’m qualified for. I swear I’ve heard God say “it’s here or nowhere”. My husband has asked/told me to go somewhere else and apply. I listened to my husband. Then there was a sermon at my church about idolatry. That hit home for me. I started listening at that point. Decided I need to stay where I am. I’m feeling spiritually attacked now. So I know I’m where I’m supposed to be.

[@denitramichelle9882]

My whole career has always focused on self love, personal growth etc but recently Jehovah has been telling me very LOUD that I need to start a KZbin and share encouraging Bible truths draw honest hearted individuals to him. I’m afraid of this new journey but I’m trusting his direction

Speaks to me. Just as you described, I have dropped pursuits, habits, people, etc. But I'll say this: I'm not sure what I'm to do next, yet I remain hopeful and filled with Faith. I pray I remember to update my comment when my testimony is due😊

[@tiffanylee6475]

I am currently sitting in my car after leaving a church that I keep attempting to attend. I continue to feel like I don’t fit in and I feel like people stare at me like I don’t belong there. I have left the church and am sitting in my car crying because life has been hard for me and all I want to do is pull it together and so the right things. I typed in when a church makes you feel uncomfortable and this video came up.

Hi! I definitely feel in this middle of this season, a season of waiting and redirecting. I always wanted to get my bachelors degree but I hit a point where money was drying up and their were no colleges available to me financially. I now have surrendered this dream to the Lord, I will not be going to college for the time being, and will now just be taking it day by day waiting for the next step. I don’t know where I am being redirected to, but I know that this story and point of my life has His name written all over it and He has something else in store for me💕🙏🏼✨Thank you Melody for these last few videos like this, they really have encouraged me!

[@JuliaMay888]

God is redirecting me by moving me to a whole other continent to a country I’ve never been. Leaving In 2 weeks. And I experienced all 3 of those signs. He is guiding and I am following. I can’t wait to see what the next chapter of my life will look like.

[@abbieamavi]

this video is timely, as my car broke down and my job (which I love) put me on suspension. All in the same 3 weeks 😂

[@Alegatorr]

I’ve been feeling this for months! A year ago I came from Puerto Rico to Pennsylvania. I was just accepting god in my heart and cried out to him and he led me to move leaving everything I had known behind and starting again. Today I find myself uncomfortable again seeing the signs he showed me then but now he’s leading back to the place he told me to move. I have nothing but God’s word to guide me and lead me. And I can’t say I know in the slightest whats going to happen but I know it will work out for my good and his glory. ❤

[@cinel9583]

Yes , I returned to my childhood town and stayed 1.5 years. After working for a year, I took a sabbatical to spend more time with my family. It was lovely, but I couldn’t get employment in my field and the like-minded singles were not on the same page or not single. I asked God for guidance and He delivered. I’m in a new city and love the independence with my career field. I know that God has more for me as I grow more with Him. Never give up!

[@harajukugrl]

Funny you say that. I moved to ATL seven years ago. I'm in ultrasound school now, but when I finish, I plan to go back to AL. I feel like God taught me everything I need to know in ATL and it's just time for me to leave and enjoy a chill, peaceful life. It's just too stressful here and I'm over the traffic and fake people.

I’m in a uncomfortable season as well. God removed a relationship that I new wouldn’t turn into a friendship, but started to hope it did and it wasn’t what God wanted for me. I’m also stepping into leadership over a single woman’s life group and that’s uncomfortable for me, because I feel like I have so much more growing in God to do, but I know he doesn’t call us to be perfect in order to help his people and my brothers and sisters in Christ. I have been slacking on getting that together, but I’m getting the things I need together this week to get the ball rolling on that. And I also did something that was very uncomfortable for me and I was finally vulnerable with God. I sat down and talked to him just like normal and I feel so much more at peace with him and with myself. Now I look forward to sitting down and just talk about my day and how I’m feeling with him and wanting to listen for what he has to say to me about it or about any questions I have. God is just soo good and I’m so grateful I have a relationship with him and he chose me to be his daughter, friend, bride, and servant.🙌🏾💖

[@thenewauthoreden]

Recently God had me move back to a city He had called me to some 3.5 years prior. I share with some that my first year in this particular place was like going to boot camp and WAR all in the same season! I left for one year to a neighboring city that ended up being a 'Jonah in the whale' type of test. So, when I obeyed God's prompting to return, I then heard Him say, " Look Again..." I believe like Peter, this meant there were more Hidden Blessings in store for me...🦋🌹

I have a huge amount in my life of such movements. I'm somewhere 3 months and I'm going to another place. Like starting all over again. Home, work and friends. Now I know what it led to.

[@justinebalasta2481]

It’s already 2 yrs when I started to make decisions I never thought will only lead me to uncomfortable life. I stop going to school when the covid-19 happened (I was supposed to be a 3rd yr college now if I didn’t stop) because I said to myself that “I will seek God deeply and I will enhance my artistic skills and I will start a small business” but 2 yrs later, nothing happened. I get depressed and suicidal and It came to a point that I questioned my life, why did I exist. I’m not a student and neither employed-I don’t have any jobs. Right now, I’m just existing. I was once got offered a job but quit immediately because of anxiety. I made a lots of excuses just so I could justify myself. And those were an awful time of my life. God forgave a lot of times from I have done. But I feel like He didn’t. Then, I realize, it was me who cannot forgive myself. But lately, everything is ok than before the good news is, I already forgive myself and there’s something inside me that really felt good. I feel like the heavy feelings are gone. And the good news is, I’ll be going to school next year! And I’m also starting to seek God again. And this video is an eye opener to me, for making me realize that God still cares for me and He wants my life to be praiseworthy for His name. All glory to God. And I also want to thank God for using you, Melody so that this message can reach to everyone who needs it.

[@Aatifah]

I’ve been in my career field for the past decade. This wasn’t my desired career choice but I fell into it out of necessity and it’s done me very well. Just finished school after going back to get my degree in this field. I was so proud of myself and told myself it was going to take a break from school. It hasn’t even been a month and I’ve been feeling this call to go back to school for what I originally wanted to do; my first love. Somehow, a lot of pieces seem to be falling in place to allow this to happen and allow me to get my degree in this new field in under a year. There’s still some roadblocks and “what ifs” that cross my mind so I’m still unsure of what to do. I’m trying to figure it out, as I’m used to doing, but since becoming a born again Christian, I understand the necessity in letting go and letting God, in theory. Emotionally speaking, I’m so scared to go back to school, spend the money, stress myself out, and potentially not be able to get the career with the employer I want. So I’m stuck on whether I should think it through and be sure this isn’t just a whim, or just plow full speed ahead and forget about the small details. I’m afraid to do something impulsive and then regret it. Is this urge really from God? I just don’t know.

[@lisamarie9876]

I’m fairly new to accepting god. 6 months in 3 months seeking and 3 months found and believing in god. and I felt his presence a few months ago. high vibrations moved through my body. when it got to my face, It just started trembling, and I started overwhelmingly crying uncontrollably face shaking crazily. The vibrations went down from head to toe during me trying to pray initially, not really knowing what I was doing, or if I was actually talking to somebody, but I did it anyway. I believed from that moment on 100%. Ever since I’ve been working on my mental health as well and also self improvement is bettering my life overall. I read the Bible every day and watch videos similar to yours and take notes to learn the word and just learn to completely devote myself and trust god. He controls all🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 I can’t believe I use to be a non-believer. I literally cry whenever I speak to god now. Whether my prayers are good bad or showing gratitude. I always end up crying. And that’s how I know he’s with me when I pray because of the first time we ever came in contact through those vibrations I cried uncontrollably. And you are a blessing Melody! I feel as though I was guided to your content, because everything you are saying is mostly everything I am going through and trying to understand and you are doing a great job at helping me understand that god is really with me when I didn’t even realize. Thank you!!! ❤❤❤❤ much love !!

You are a Blessing for the young generation. This was right on point. The Lord has redirected a few times in my life that I am so Blessed that he did.

Oh my goodness! I believe the Lord had me listen. Bless you for your obedience! 🙏🏽🙏🏽✝️. I have gone from a season of social media posting/“preaching,” to the Lord moving me almost completely off.

Seeking the LORD almost daily on next steps…pray for you as well!

[@BrittbyBit]

I've been swiping past this video for a couple weeks. I finally listened to Holy Spirit and watched. This helped to set me free from the shame I've been feeling. God redirected me this year and shut my business down. There was no more provision. I grieved for months. I felt like I was going crazy. I prayed before I took this huge leap and I could've sworn God gave me a green light...but everything started to crumble. It was so hard. I didn't respond in the best way. I've had to apologize to God so many times. God gave me the green light because I had been disobedient for long enough. A hard head makes for a soft behind. God is still working things out for my good. He is so awesome and meticulous.
