The Momentary Thought from a Satiated Mind: A Spiritual Journey of Surrender

A space where Spirit speaks before the fruit ever shows. It’s a place where whispers of heaven plant themselves in voice notes, morning commutes, and friendly WhatsApp messages. Where prayer calls turn into healing sessions! Oh, she’s sometimes that unexpected guest—showing up barefoot, bold, and right on time… even if I’m in yesterday’s sweats and not emotionally ready for company. 😅

Let me tell you what had this daughter of Zion pacing the floor with one hand in the air and the other clutching her morning cuppa tea like it was communion. A preacher dropped a word—Genesis 18:10—and baby, I felt it shoot through my bones like a lightning bolt wrapped in lavender oil.

Divine Timing and the Power of Invitation

Whew! Just like that, I was wrecked (in a divine way). But let’s rewind. On Friday morning, I was deep into my “Jesus and Journal” flow when a sister-friend sent me a sermon link and said, “Listen to this.” We had just finished discussing her book launch—dreams flowing, visions rising, Holy Spirit stirring—and I, being my spontaneous prophetic self (I’m claiming it! 😁), blurted out, “Girl, I’m seeing myself coming to South Africa to speak to the single women at your book launch. Maybe offer some pro-bono coaching sessions too!”

She didn’t even blink. She said, “Of course you can, come!” Most people would shout and start packing. Me? I said, “I’ll pray about it.” I often respond like this when the Spirit gives an invitation that sounds bigger than my current situation.

In the busyness of the day, I tucked the idea away and moved on. I forgot all about it and went back to scrolling through emails and rebuking overdue bills. Fast forward to the next morning: I woke up to her text confirming the invite, and that’s when the small me crawled out from under the bed whispering all her excuses in my ear.

• “You don’t have money for a flight!”

• “Your dad is ill, and every phone call that rings, you know what it’s about…”

• “You’re hoarding your PTO days like they're gold for school weekends!”

• “Are you really READY to be READY in Abraham Hicks' voice?”

• “Your cup, which you see as half full—it’s on layaway, girl!”

  
  

The Choir of Excuses

Listen… the excuses came like a choir. And they were on key. The core belief “I’m not good enough” was singing the soprano! But then—glory to God—I remembered the sermon, you know, the one my sister-friend sent me! I pressed play, and the Word met me in my moment of wrestling. I listened, and the Word revealed where I was: in the land of logic and low expectations. Holy Spirit was revealing to me that, as I do my work of personal growth and healing, there are still more layers of the “lack, limitation, and scarcity” onion to peel!

This is what the sermon brought to the forefront of my attention:

“Purpose comes in TIME… not with AGE.”

Let that sit in your soul too, and marinate on it like I did this past weekend, and I'm still on it!

The Spirit Spoke Gently

"Do not assess your readiness based on your current reality. I AM the God of appointed times. And what I call forth, I sustain." I may be aging—but I have not missed my timing. I might be calculating coins, but I’m not bankrupt in promise. I might feel tired in the flesh, but my spirit is on divine alert. All I need is the wisdom to see my visitation.

Surrender Becomes Strategy

My surrender has now become my strategy! And oh YES… I OBEY!! I’ve spent time lately reflecting on where I am mentally, financially, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. I’ve looked at my life and had a chuckle. Let’s be real: like Sarah laughed too. The girl giggled at God—not out of mockery, but from a place of wondering how it’s all going to come together. (Genesis 18:12-13)

And yet… God called her out like, “Why did you laugh?” And she did what any of us would do when God checks our doubt: she lied! “I didn’t laugh.” And God said, “No, but you did.” (Read that with a divine side-eye.) But guess what? God didn’t cancel the promise because of her unbelief. He just kept moving…on schedule. God said…

“Is anything too hard for the Lord?” (Genesis 18:14)

The sermon, based on the Word “He changes the times and the seasons; He gives wisdom to the wise…” (Daniel 2:21), began to shift my perspective and carry me deeper into my own revelation. Suddenly, I understood that even in this moment—especially in this moment—I am being positioned to recognize and not miss my visitation.

So maybe, just maybe, that invitation to South Africa is more than a possibility—it’s a prophecy. Maybe the flight is already covered in Heaven’s budget. Maybe the women I’m meant to serve are part of the harvest from my sowing season. Maybe this sister-friend is more than a connection—she’s a midwife to this next birth.

As I always say and have learned, we never know what a thing is for. My job is to pay attention, listen, and just BE! Nothing to do!

The Sacredness of Seed Time

Because beloved, seed time is sacred. And while I may be aging, I have not missed my appointed time. I can shout HALLELUJAH for myself!!

In this sacred moment—in a “Momentary Thought of a Satiated Mind”—here are some musings I received in Season:

• Moses was 40 when he made a mess and was 80 when God made him a messenger. So, I do not judge the chaos I see—it might be the setup to my breakthrough!

• As I walk in spiritual awareness, I feel ready because I trust the One who calls me.

• I am led by PURPOSE, not performance; what I am seeking is seeking me!

  
  

I can now say truthfully and courageously that I’m Surrendering Time:

• I’ve laid down worry.

• I’ve picked up the Word.

• And I’m letting God be God—on His own clock.

  
  

For He makes all things beautiful… in its time. (Ecclesiastes 3:11)

Truths to Decree

💭 These truths I decree for myself, and I invite you to reflect on the truths you are inviting for yourself…

✅ My debts are dissolving in the presence of Divine Provision.

✅ My podcast is *alive*—and divinely appointed guests are showing up.

✅ My coaching practice is drawing the exact souls it was created to serve.

✅ My womb—spiritual, emotional, and maybe even physical—is ALWAYS OPEN and AVAILABLE to the promise.

Why? Because NOTHING is too hard for God.

And if I’m in seed time, I trust that harvest time is appointed. I am no longer trying to manipulate the outcome. I am now cultivating SURRENDER in OBEDIENCE to God’s Plan!

A Petition to Move in Season

Praise:

Father of Times and Seasons, I acknowledge You as DIVINE WISDOM. The WISDOM of God surrounds and enfolds me, showing up in what I think, what I say, and what I do. I praise Your Holy name and I CLAIM I am the WISDOM that GOD is! I praise You, Adonai, for being the God of *Divine Reset*.

Petition:

I surrender the weight of my timing to You. Help me align my thoughts with Your Divine Mind so that I make the right choices and decisions in my life. Like the Sons of Issachar, may I discern my appointed seasons and be attentive to Your visitation. Remove the blinders, the delays, and every lie that says I’m late from my mind. Guide me toward fulfilling Your PURPOSE for me in this life.

Reveal to me the appropriate steps and actions to take moment by moment. Restore unto me the years I stole from myself knowingly or unknowingly, so I may move in God’s speed to fulfill my purpose and the desires that You have already predestined and ordained for my life. You are the Redeemer of years. So, God, I ask that You redeem the years I wasted doubting, delaying, and discounting myself. Let me not miss my visitation, my connection, or my Kairos moment.

Now I ask, that I may ALWAYS WALK in Your LIGHT!

Thanksgiving:

Thank You Father, for right now, I stand in Your perfecting GRACE. Thank You God, for I know that all things are in Divine order! Thank You El Shaddai for the abundant prosperity that is ALREADY mine; I claim it now! I AM SO GRATEFUL for the woman/man that You are building in me!

I AM GRATEFUL for ALL THAT You are RESTORING in my life. I AM so GRATEFUL for this season… the stretching, the cracking, the waiting, the SURRENDER, the PEACE, and the BREAKTHROUGHS! I AM so GRATEFUL to know that the POSSIBILITIES are ENDLESS and that You are LIMITLESS. I AM so GRATEFUL for the signs and wonders in my life!

I AM so GRATEFUL for this season of EXPANSION! I AM so GRATEFUL for this season which is continually allowing me to recognize the ESSENCE of who You have created me to be… and for the laughter that follows. I PRAISE You for all this and for all that is yet to come.

I Ask…

I Allow…

I LET IT BE SO…

AND SO, IT IS…IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME I pray…

AMEN and ASHE

You might be in seed time too; trust me—harvest is on the way. So laugh if you must, AND remember to SURRENDER the outcome! Don’t forget—He’s coming back next year… and the baby no doubt, will be in your arms!!
