Light Has Come — Now Create: Vision 26 and the Power to Move Forward

urbirthright, , , , , , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

Scripture Focus:

Matthew 4:16: Deuteronomy 8:18: Ephesians 3:20

Light Always Comes Before Creation

Genesis shows us a powerful pattern: And God said, Let there be light — and there was light. Before God created anything, He created light. Light is the environment for creation.

And now, as we step into Vision 26: The Power to Create, God is declaring:

You are no longer in survival mode.
You are back in creation mode.

Light Ends Survival and Activates Building

Darkness makes you:

  • Preserve
  • Protect
  • Retreat
  • Maintain
  • Endure

Light empowers you to:

  • Build
  • Design
  • Expand
  • Launch
  • Execute

You cannot create in darkness. But you can create in light.

What Does It Mean to Create in the Light?

It means:

  • You build from truth, not trauma
  • You decide from faith, not fear
  • You move from clarity, not confusion
  • You execute from identity, not insecurity

“And you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth…” — Deuteronomy 8:18

This is:

  • Creative power
  • Building power
  • Vision-executing power

Vision 26 Is a Shift in Posture

2026 is not:

  • A year to hide
  • A year to wait
  • A year to shrink
  • A year to overthink

It is:

  • A year to build
  • A year to create
  • A year to execute
  • A year to steward what God showed you

“Arise, shine…” LIGHT always comes before expansion.

What Are You Now Able to Produce?

Because light has come, you can now produce:

  • Businesses
  • Ministries
  • Books
  • Courses
  • Systems
  • Strategies
  • Structures
  • Legacy

Not from pressure.
Not from striving.
But from alignment.

Vision 26 Declaration

I am no longer sitting in darkness.
I am walking in light.
I am creating from clarity.
I am building from faith.
I am executing from assignment.
This is my season to create.

Final Charge

Light has come. Which means: Delays are ending. Vision reactivates. Creativity awakens. Your Assignment comes back online.

Vision 26 is not a recovery year.
It is a CREATION year.

Yours in Christ Jesus

Light Has Come: Your Season of Darkness Is Not Your Story

urbirthright, , , , , , , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

Scripture Focus:

“The people who sat in darkness have seen a great Light, and upon those who sat in the region and shadow of death Light has dawned.” — Matthew 4:16

When You’ve Been Sitting in the Dark

There are seasons in life where it feels like you are not just passing through darkness — you are sitting in it. Perhaps you are Sitting in:

  • Grief
  • Delay
  • Confusion
  • Weariness
  • Disappointment

The Bible calls this place “the region and shadow of death.” It is the space where hope feels dim, clarity feels far away, and movement feels hard. But then Heaven makes an announcement: Light has come.

When Jesus entered the earth, light entered the world. Not motivational light. Not positive-thinking light. Divine, transforming, Life-Giving Light.

Darkness does not get the final word.
Your pain does not get the final word.
Your past does not get the final word.

Light has come.

What Does It Mean That Light Has Come?

In Scripture, light represents:

  • Truth where there was deception
  • Clarity where there was confusion
  • Life where there was death
  • Hope where there was despair
  • Direction where there was wandering

“In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it.” — John 1:4–5

Jesus did not come to manage darkness.
He came to defeat it.

From Sitting in Darkness to Walking in Light

Notice the language in Matthew 4:16:

“Those who sat in darkness…” Sitting implies that you are Stuck, Paused, Weary, or Resigned.

But when light comes, God does not call you to sit anymore. He calls you to walk.

“For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light.” — Ephesians 5:8

Walking means:

  • Movement
  • Progress
  • Direction
  • Intention
  • Momentum

How Do You Succeed After a Dark Season?

Coming out of darkness is not just about feeling better. It’s about living differently.

1. Renew Your Mind

Dark seasons distort thinking. Light restores perspective.

“Be transformed by the renewing of your mind…” — Romans 12:2

2. Start Agreeing with God Again

Darkness trains you to talk survival. Light teaches you to speak promise.

3. Take Small, Faithful Steps

Light doesn’t always reveal the whole road — just the next step.

“Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” — Psalm 119:105

4. Re-engage Your Purpose

Darkness makes you hide. Light calls you forward.

Can You Produce After a Dark Season?

Yes. And often more than before.

Dark seasons don’t destroy you — they develop you.

“Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you.” — Isaiah 60:1

Your fruit after darkness is:

  • Wiser
  • Stronger
  • More intentional
  • More rooted
  • More focused

Here is my Final Encouragement

If you have been:

  • In grief
  • In delay
  • In confusion
  • In disappointment
  • In survival mode

Hear Heaven’s announcement:

Light has come.

This is not just your recovery season.
This is your re-emergence season.

Yours in Christ Jesus

✨ Your Calling is Greater Than Your Comfort Zone

urbirthright, , , , , , Leave a comment

Recently, I shared a powerful truth with my Women in Pursuit of Purpose Facebook group that stirred something deep not only in them—but also in me. As we wrapped up a session, I heard myself say: “Your calling is greater than your comfort zone.”

And I felt the weight of those words settle into the room (and into our hearts). Today, I want to expound on that thought and shine a bit more light on what it means—because I believe it’s a message for you, too.

✔️ The Assignment Requires Courage

God never calls us to a life of ease—He calls us to a life of obedience. The moment you say “yes” to purpose, you must also say “no” to comfort. Why? Because:

  • Purpose stretches you.
  • Calling challenges you.
  • Destiny demands movement.

We see it in Scripture time and again. Moses had to leave the desert. Esther had to walk into the king’s court. Peter had to step out of the boat. And each one of them had to face the same decision: Will I stay in what’s comfortable…or will I move in what’s calling me?

✔️ Fear Delays Purpose—Boldness Activates It

If fear has been speaking louder than faith, you’re not alone. But here’s the truth:

  • Fear delays.
  • Comfort excuses.
  • But BOLDNESS activates.

When we choose boldness over fear, we activate doors, divine connections, and supernatural provision. The moment you decide to obey, heaven starts moving on your behalf. 📖 Joshua 1:9 reminds us: “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid… for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”

God doesn’t ask us to go alone—He promises His presence, power, and provision every step of the way.

🔥 Your Inheritance Is on the Other Side of Obedience

You were never meant to camp out in your comfort zone. Your inheritance—your next level, breakthrough, business, book, ministry, or mission—is on the other side of a yes.

And that “yes” might be scary, risky, and even lonely. But it is also sacred. Because God meets you at the place of your obedience.

🙌🏽 Remember:

  • God’s will doesn’t always feel safe. But it’s always secure.
  • Your calling isn’t casual—it’s Kingdom.
  • You weren’t born to be comfortable. You were born to conquer.

📝 Final Thoughts

As you reflect on this, I challenge you to ask yourself: Where have I chosen comfort over calling? What small step of obedience can I take today? It doesn’t have to be perfect. It just has to be bold. Let this post be your nudge, your confirmation, and your encouragement to rise up and walk in it.

Because your calling is worth it. And so are you.

Bless. Build. Impact. — Living the Light

Bless. Build. Impact. — Living the Light

You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden… Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father in heaven. — Matthew 5:14–16

There’s something about light. It changes a room. It lifts a mood. It helps you see clearly. But in Matthew 5:14–16, Jesus tells us we’re not just carriers of light — we ARE the light.

And that light? It’s not meant to be hidden. It’s meant to Bless. Build. Impact.

1. Bless — Your Light Brings Benefit

Think of the last time someone’s kindness turned your day around. That’s what blessing looks like.
When you let your light shine, you’re offering hope to the discouraged, encouragement to the weary, and comfort to the hurting. You’re adding value to someone’s life simply by showing up with love, compassion, and truth.

Blessing is contagious. One act of kindness often sparks another. And when the world sees light like that, it takes notice.

2. Build — Your Light Strengthens Others

Light doesn’t just brighten a space — it reveals what’s possible. Your words, actions, and faith can build courage in someone else. They can strengthen a friend’s resolve, help a coworker find clarity, or inspire a neighbor to take their next step in faith.

Building takes intentionality. It’s not about quick fixes but about sowing seeds of truth, encouragement, and wisdom that help others grow.

3. Impact — Your Light Creates Lasting Change

Here’s the beautiful part: when your light blesses and builds, it naturally makes an impact.
Impact isn’t just about big moments; it’s about the lasting imprint you leave on someone’s heart. It’s the way your love points them toward God. It’s the conversation that shifts their perspective. It’s the consistent example that whispers, “God is real. His love is here.”

Your Light Matters

Jesus didn’t say, “Try to be the light.” He said, “You are the light.”
That means your life is already positioned to bless, build, and impact — right where you are. At work. At home. In your community. In your church. So today, step onto the candlestick. Be that city on a hill.
Let your light shine, and watch God use it to change lives.

Yours In Christ

The Blessing of Thankfulness: Embracing Gratitude

urbirthright, , , , , , , Leave a comment

Gratitude isn’t just a fleeting emotion; it’s a profound acknowledgment of the goodness that surrounds us daily. When we pause to express thanks, we’re tapping into a timeless wisdom that enriches our lives in unexpected ways.


In Psalm 103:2-5, the psalmist beautifully captures this sentiment: “Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits, who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit, who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy.”


Imagine a life where every moment is infused with gratitude—a heart that overflows with appreciation for the big and small blessings alike. It’s like discovering hidden treasures in the ordinary, finding joy in the simplest gestures, and embracing a deeper sense of fulfillment.


As we practice gratitude, we awaken to the beauty that often goes unnoticed. It’s about opening our eyes to the intricate tapestry of blessings woven into the fabric of our existence. From the laughter of loved ones to the warmth of the morning sun, each moment becomes a testament to God’s goodness.
Join me on this journey of gratitude. Let’s celebrate the goodness that surrounds us, foster a sense of awe for life’s beauty, and embrace each day with a heart full of thanks.


Yours in Christ

You Are a Builder, Not a Bystander

urbirthright, , , , , , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

Sis, let me remind you: you are not just passing through life waiting on permission—you are a builder.

God did not create you to stand on the sidelines and spectate while others shape culture, raise families in strength, launch businesses, or lead ministries. No, Queen—you are equipped, anointed, and assigned to build something that lasts.

“The wise woman builds her house…” – Proverbs 14:1

You’ve got the tools.
You’ve got the vision.
And you’ve got the favor of Heaven backing you.

But here’s the truth—many of us shrink back and play small. We second-guess our influence. We delay the project. We call it “waiting on God” when really, God is waiting on us to believe we’re more than bystanders.

Builders move with intention.
They lay bricks even when no one applauds.
They speak life even when the room is silent.
They honor their homes, their gifts, their time—not because it’s easy, but because it’s purpose.

You are building when you:

  • Speak peace into your children
  • Show up to work with integrity
  • Pray over your home and make decisions that protect your peace
  • Launch that idea even though it scares you

Stop downplaying what God has given you. Bystanders watch. Builders worship through action.

So here’s your Divine Reminder:
You are not just here to exist—you are here to establish.
You are not just floating through—you are forming something.
You are a Kingdom woman on assignment.

Let this be your declaration today:
I am a builder. I lay every brick with vision, every word with wisdom, and every step in faith. I don’t wait for the world to validate what Heaven has already confirmed. I build for the Kingdom—on purpose, with purpose.

So, Sis—what are you building in this season?

Because watching time pass is not your birthright.
Building legacy is.

Yours in Christ Jesus

Grace That Empowers, Mercy That Embraces

urbirthright, , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

Grace That Empowers, Mercy That Embraces

“Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” – Hebrews 4:16 (NKJV)

God extends a powerful invitation to us—one that encourages intimacy, boldness, and trust. He doesn’t ask us to come timidly, fearfully, or hesitantly. Instead, He says: Come boldly. Why? Because we are not approaching a throne of judgment, but a throne of grace.

In this sacred space, two things await us:

1. Mercy – God’s Compassion Toward Our Condition

When we come before God, we obtain mercy. Mercy is God’s tender compassion toward us. It’s His willingness to withhold the punishment we deserve and instead extend forgiveness, pity, and loving-kindness. Mercy meets us in our lowest moments—in our sin, our suffering, our weakness—and says, I see you, and I still love you.

Mercy says:

  • “I understand where you are.”
  • “I have compassion for what you’ve been through.”
  • “I forgive your mistakes and heal your wounds.”

Lamentations 3:22–23 reminds us:

“Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning.”

This means we never run out of mercy. God’s compassion is not only available—it’s abundant and renewed daily.

2. Grace – God’s Empowerment for Our Journey

After we obtain mercy, we find grace to help in time of need. Grace is more than unmerited favor—it’s divine empowerment. It is the supernatural strength to endure, to overcome, and to fulfill what God has called us to do. Grace lifts us when we feel weak, equips us when we feel unqualified, and carries us when we cannot carry ourselves.

God doesn’t just show you kindness—He gives you power to endure and overcome.

2 Corinthians 12:9 declares:

“My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.”

This means we don’t just receive sympathy for our struggle—we receive strategy and strength for the struggle. Grace doesn’t eliminate the process; it equips you to go through it with victory.

So how do we respond?

  • We come boldly—without shame, fear, or hesitation.
  • We come consistently—not just when things are good or bad, but as a lifestyle.
  • We come expectantly—knowing that God delights in responding to the cry of His children.

In summary:
At the throne of grace, you receive:

  • Mercy for your past and present condition
  • Grace for your future and your fight

You are not alone. You are not helpless. You are not without hope.

God has opened the way—so draw near, ask boldly, and receive both His heart (mercy) and His hand (grace). He is ready to meet you where you are and empower you to walk through whatever lies ahead.

Yours In Christ Jesus

She Rises

A Tribute to Women Who Carry Light

March is more than the beginning of Spring — it’s a celebration of legacy, leadership, and the limitless potential of women. Women’s History Month invites us to reflect on the voices that have shaped our past and the ones rising to shape our future.

Throughout history and Scripture, we see women whose Faith, courage, and resilience have changed the world. From Ruth’s loyalty, to Deborah’s wisdom, Esther’s bravery, and Mary’s surrender, each woman moved history forward not by striving, but by aligning with divine purpose.

And now — it’s your turn.

To the woman juggling dreams and deadlines,
To the one healing while still showing up,
To the one leading in boardrooms, classrooms, pulpits, or living rooms —
You are a part of the story.

You are a living legacy.

Every prayer you whisper, every barrier you break, every act of love you give — it all matters. Your light makes room for others to rise. Your strength becomes the blueprint for someone else’s courage.

This month, stand tall in your identity.
Remember that you are God’s masterpiece, crafted with intention, infused with purpose, and equipped to rise.

So, don’t shrink.
Don’t second-guess your brilliance.
Don’t apologize for being powerful, passionate, or prophetic.

She rises — and because she rises, we all rise.

Yours in Christ

Dr. Carla Mormon, TH. D.

ARISE Praying Parents:

Family, I want to encourage you today…

Yesterday, the Lord placed a prophetic word in my spirit for each of my children, and as I shared with them, I was reminded of the power of hearing GOD for ourselves and speaking life into our families.

As parents, we are the first prophets in our children’s lives. We have the privilege and responsibility to declare GOD’s truth over them, to call forth their destiny, and to remind them of who they are in Christ.

I want to encourage each of you to take time in prayer, asking the Holy Spirit for a word concerning your children. Listen—He is always speaking. He will give you insight, wisdom, and even correction to guide them into His perfect will.

Declare over them:
🔹 Who they are in Christ
🔹 What GOD is saying about their future
🔹 Protection, wisdom, and favor over their lives

Even if they don’t fully understand or receive it in the moment, trust that GOD’s word never returns void (Isaiah 55:11).

Let’s be intentional about creating an atmosphere where our children can hear from GOD for themselves. Encourage them to pray, to listen, and to write down what they sense in their spirit. Their ears will be trained to hear Him as we model it for them.

Be bold. Speak life. Watch GOD move! Blessings365!

Love you all, and praying over each of your homes!

Yours in Christ,

Dr. Carla Mormon, TH. D.

You Are Worth More Than Rubies:

A Message for Women on International Women’s Day

Today, on International Women’s Day, we celebrate you—the woman who nurtures, builds, creates, leads, and loves with a strength that only God could have placed within you. You are valuable beyond measure, worthy beyond words, and loved beyond comprehension.

You Are Fearfully and Wonderfully Made

In a world that often tries to define your worth by appearance, accomplishments, or approval, God has already declared your worth immeasurable. Psalm 139:14 says:

I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.

You were created with intentionality—crafted by the hands of the Almighty, woven with divine purpose, and placed in this world for such a time as this (Esther 4:14).

You Are Chosen and Called

God sees beyond the titles, the struggles, and the expectations the world places on you. He calls you His daughter, His beloved, and a royal priesthood (1 Peter 2:9). No matter your past, present, or future, you have a calling that only you can fulfill.

You may wear many hats—mother, wife, sister, friend, leader, entrepreneur—but your greatest identity is in Christ. You are chosen. You are enough. You are empowered to make an impact.

You Carry Strength and Dignity

The Proverbs 31 woman is often seen as the ideal standard, but what makes her powerful is not just what she does, but who she is:

She is clothed with strength and dignity, and she laughs without fear of the future. – Proverbs 31:25

You, too, are clothed with strength and dignity—not because of perfection, but because of God’s grace. He equips you to stand firm in faith, to rise when you fall, and to walk boldly in purpose.

You Are More Precious Than Rubies

Society may try to measure worth in beauty, productivity, or status, but God says:

“She is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her.” – Proverbs 3:15

Your value is not earned—it is God-given. You do not have to prove yourself to be worthy of love, respect, or purpose. You already are.

An Encouragement for Every Woman

Today, I want to remind you:

✨ You are seen. God knows your heart, your dreams, and your struggles.
✨ You are loved. His love is unwavering, unconditional, and unshakable.
✨ You are enough. Not because of what you do, but because of who you are in Him.
✨ You are capable. You were made for impact, and God has placed gifts within you for His glory.

As we celebrate International Women’s Day, may you walk in confidence, embrace your purpose, and remember: you are a woman of worth—valuable, loved, and chosen by God.

Happy International Women’s Day! 💜✨
