Wednesday Word: “Busyness Can Keep You From Time Spent With God”-Brittany Shawnté

I don’t share a lot of my own clips for Wednesday Word, but this one is an important one to share.

I posted a clip on TikTok because God has been working on me about my schedule, which is currently packed to the brim. The problem is, I’m only one person and there’s so much that can be done before you: (1) run yourself into the ground, (2) end up not giving your best because you’re spread so thin, and (3) end up cutting time spent with God.

Wednesday Word: “Prayer Is To Develop Intimacy with God”-Cliffe Knechtle

Some days ago, I saw this video circulating on my Facebook timeline from Cliffe Knechtle.

Wednesday Word: “You Have to Build Intimacy with God to Hear His Voice”-Pastor Jerry Flowers, Jr.

This Wednesday Word is from Pastor Jerry Flowers, Jr., lead pastor at Time of Celebration Ministries Church based in Houston, Texas. He preached a sermon a little while ago on how to handle when God says, “NO” to our plans, desires, or dreams.

However, in order to hear and obey that “NO,” we have to know God’s voice in the first place. And the only way to know that is through actually knowing and being close to God in the first place.
