Let The Whispers Speak...
I went into my uncles’ room
and asked him if it was ok for me to travel with him, he wasn’t hesitant to
agree, there was no pause, there was no deliberation, I confirmed the date he
was leaving and we were good to go.
A few days before we were to
travel, I was having a conversation with his driver and I mentioned that I
would be traveling with them and he went… “how
will we all fit into the car? Its only one car we’re going back with, and the
second driver and the steward are riding with us.’ I looked at him, like
seriously? You expect me to doubt what your boss has said because of what you
know, what has been the set arrangement? He’s the boss; he can change his mind,
he can decide to take a second car. He can decide to have any other person drop
off and use another means, he can decide anything, change the rules to
accommodate me, unseat people to accommodate me, because he wants to, and
because I’m his daughter (or niece in this case), the one he’s well pleased
with, the one he loves. It’s not about the drivers’ opinion; he doesn’t need
the drivers’ permission.
I was subtly pissed, raging
mad behind the calm exterior and smile I had plastered on my face.
Well the day came and every
other person was discarded for me. It was just my uncle, the driver and I on
the trip; a car was hired to take the other two people ahead of us.
You see, you’re the child of God
the King; you come out from the throne room after discussions with your Daddy.
He tells you kingdom truths, secrets and promises that are out of this world, He
gives you never been heard of ideas, and you come out confident until you
mention it to someone who is his staff/child but with little or no access to Him
like you or even with same access as you. (That’s
why you have to be careful who you expose your dreams to, you never know who’s
got the pin to deflate your high) Then they discourage you.
You’re not so silly to doubt
the whispers of your Father in the face of the screams of His subjects, screams
of Are you sure? Nothing like that’s been
done before? In this place they don’t let young girls lead. It’s already too
saturated in this place. Where would you get the money? There’s no money
anywhere… and all sorts of lies they
tell you. But you’ve got to come out from under their smallness of mind, they
weren’t there when you went into the throne room, they didn’t hear what you discussed
with Daddy. They don’t know the understanding you share with your Father, they
don’t know just how loved you are by the King… There’s a lot of things people
don’t know about God and the way He works, they hold on to the little they
know, unwilling to think beyond the doctrines they have, that they are ready to
shove down your throat all that is conventional to stop you from getting the
unconventional results from the blessings of the Father. God gives us dreams, we speak the word and put a hedge in our hearts against the nay sayers. God always keeps His word, if only you choose to hold on to them.
“Let's keep a firm
grip on the promises that keep us going. He always keeps his word.”
(Hebrews 10:23 msg)
What has God promised you?
What has He whispered into your ears? What’s that seemingly impossible dream?
If it’s an impossible dream, then it’s surely got to be God, do it! He’ll fund
it, assist you, and make the way for you. You’ll never know if you don’t take
that daring step of faith. Stop limiting your self. Stop letting peoples
opinion of your Father affect your faith. Stop listening to every voice you
hear. Let His whispers speak loudly in your action and your walk of faith.
Even if it takes forever,
don’t relent in the truth and validity of that voice as though you just heard
it a second ago. Keep it evergreen before you, write
it down if you must and as you step out even when oppositions come you’ll know you’re on
the right path…
This vision is for a future time. It describes the end, and
it will be fulfilled. If it seems slow in coming, wait patiently, for it will
surely take place. It will not be delayed. Hababkuk 2:3
