Mistaken Identity
I feel like I’m quoting Martin Luther King Jr. when I say, “I have a dream.” I am not making light of this, on the contrary, I have a dream. I have a passion so deep inside of me. I want to make such an impact as M.L.K. Jr.
I want to make a real difference. I want to be a part of helping to shape an entire generation. Is that dream too big?
When I got prophesied over, I was told to read Is. 60. As I read it, my dream just stirs inside of me. Is it possible? Will this deep desire of mine come to pass? Is the dream too big for someone like me?
“Start with what you have.” This. This blog. This is what I have. This is where my dream begins. Can it make such an impact? Can it reach someone who will help open the door for such an impact? I don’t know what God has planned. Here I am God, using what I have.
There is a verse Is. 60:15 ”Whereas you have been forsaken and hated, so that no man went through you (Israel), I will make you an eternal excellency, joy of many generations.”
Can a prophecy spoken over Israel, God’s chosen people, really apply to MY life. No way I deserve such a call. Though, I do have the heart. How could my vessel make such an impact?
If I am honest, I seek personal words from prophets. Why? Well, I am not David. I am not Abraham. I am not Paul. How could these words like “fearfully and wonderfully made” fit me?
Is. 60:5 reads “Then you shall see, and flow together, and your heart shall tremble, and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea shall be converted unto you, the forces of the gentiles shall come unto you.”
How big of a miracle am I allowed to believe in? Is it prideful to believe that I can leave a legacy that impacts generation after generation. Can I leave behind something that continues to change lives. “Your daughters shall be nursed at your side.”
I know that nothing is impossible with God. I know that I cannot do a single thing, but my vessel is not worthy to make such an impact. How dare I have such a faith that I could.
“Lord, align my desires with yours. Give me the eyes to see your fingerprints, the ears to hear your words, the heart to receive them. GIve me a mind of wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. Anoint my hands to hold and to love and to nurture, anoint my tongue to speak only words you would have me to speak, anoint my feet to go where you would have them to go. Guard my mind, my heart, my eyes, my ears, my hands, and my feet against any and all schemes the enemy would attempt against me, in the name of Jesus I pray. Amen.”
“DAUGHTER BEGIN TO LET YOUR IDENTITY OF WHO I SAY YOU ARE BE WHO I SAY YOU ARE NOT WHO YOU’VE GROWN UP AROUND OR WHAT THE WORLD HAS TRIED TO DEFINE AND SHAPE YOU AS. I CREATED YOU AND SPIRITUALLY MADE YOU FOR WHO YOU ARE TO BE.” SAYETH THE LORD!
God gave me this prophecy a few months ago. Again tonight he spoke the same words over me by another prophet, “LET YOUR IDENTITY BE WHO I SAY YOU ARE NOT WHO OTHERS SAY YOU ARE.”
Teach me God, WHO AM I?
