✨ 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.

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

Powerful in the Holy Ghost

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

There is so much power in the baptism of the Holy Spirit. I don’t know if we know how much power we really have access to. I do not know if we understand the power that resides in us is through the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

Today, if you are baptized in the Holy Spirit, I implore you to try him today.  Try accessing that life changing power today.   I truly believe that we have various opportunities throughout the day to Minister to the needs of others. With such great access to such great power, why are we holding back??? Could it be that we are so busy with life that we miss our heavenly opportunities?

We do not even have the imagination of what the Holy Spirit can, will, shall, and must do through us. Will you even try today? Don’t miss a moment to show God’s Love, Majesty, Mercy, Grace, Power, Miracles, Signs, and/or His Wonders.

As I was reading my devotional today it took me to Acts 3.  Peter and John have been recently baptized with fire in the Holy Spirit. They are about to enter the temple and run into a man at the gate called Beautiful. The Bible said he was a lame man and had been that way for 40 years, since birth as a matter of fact. He was there begging for money which is what he did daily.

When the apostles see this man the first thing, they did was felt compassion for him. The ministry that Jesus operated in all the time, kicked in and they began to engage him by speaking to him. Next, they gave him something, not what he wanted or what he asked for. But how many of you know that if you have been unable to walk for 40 years…. I believe it is safe to say that the lame man knew and felt like this was his lot in life. His thoughts could possibly have been I will be like this for the rest of my life. The rest of my days I will be unable to walk, unable to provide for myself or my family without coming here and begging. I think it is a safe It is safe to say that he was relegated to this position and or posture.

However, here comes the Disruptors (Peter and John) with their no having silver and gold selves.  Answering the lame man responded by saying this is what I have for you.  Take up your bed and walk in the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene. And suddenly, his feet felt something that they had never felt before. Power surged in his body and he began to stand up in the power of the Holy Spirit. The Bible said at once he stood up. He began to walk around on his new legs and feet. And entered into the temple, leaping and jumping and praising God.

So once again, my brothers and sisters, I implore you to access the power of the Holy Spirit that God has granted you and Jesus gifted you. Go out today and throughout your day and throughout your week seek who you can bless with the power of the Holy Spirit.

Who will cross your path today or tomorrow? And You will access the power of the Holy Spirit, operate in the ministry that Jesus called You to, and witness the power of the Holy Spirit move on behalf of the person you are praying for.

Yours in Christ

Psalm 121:1

I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.

What are you need of today? Is it your health? Has the enemy robbed you today or yesterday in any area of your LIFE.  What are you Looking at.  I have come to rely on this scripture more and more.  My mother-in-law quotes this scripture ALL the Time.  I never knew why this was her go to scripture but as I have grown in the word of and as an adult I know what it truly means.

When I hear this song by Travis Green I am reminded of several scriptures but this one especially.  Psalm 121:1 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.  The Bible tell us we are the healed.  We as Believers, Christians, Children of the Most High God, the Remnant, or whatever adjective you are claiming today on the cross, on that hill, “Calvary” that Jesus said it is finish.

Today we operate in the finish work of Jesus.  We now have power and authority that was given back to us and all finished work at the cross is Ours.  So your healing is finished.  I’m dealing with healing today.  I have so many people connected to me that are being plagued in their bodies with sickness and disease and unrest and people of GOD that is not our portion.  You were healed at Calvary sickness and disease is trying to come up on you.  Whose report will you believe? Where are you Looking? What is your heart set on? Your healing/healed state of being or what the enemy and symptoms are saying. Today lets BELIEVE God.  8/22/2016

PRAYER6975079-green-hills

I pray for a Supernatural Revealed Word to be released over your Life today.  I plead the Blood of Jesus over every area that is contrary to the word of God concerning your body.  You are healed from the top of your heads to the soles of your feet.  No weapon shall by no means prosper against you I pray for divine health to manifest Now in Jesus name.  You are healed, You are whole, You are set free in Jesus name.  Lord we Thank you Right now in advance for you finished work in our lives in every area.  In Jesus name Amen.

Confession for Strength

Confession for Strength

The Lord is my Strength and my Song, and He has become my Salvation; this is my God, and I will praise Him, my father’s God, and I will exalt Him.

I love the LORD my God with all my heart and with all my soul and with all my strength. It is God who arms me with strength and makes my way perfect. You armed me with strength for battle; you made my adversaries bow at my feet.
I look to the LORD and his strength; I seek his face always. Wealth and honor come from you; you are the ruler of all things. In your hands are strength and power to exalt and give strength to me. For the eyes of the LORD range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him. I am committed to you Lord. I am your servant, whom you redeemed by your great strength and your mighty hand.

Lord I shall return to you and obey your commands, and I know that even if my descendants are in exile at the farthest horizon, your word says that You will gather them from there and bring them to the place You have chosen as a dwelling for Your Name.

I am your servant and I am your people, whom you redeemed by your great strength and your mighty hand. O Lord, let your ear be attentive to the prayer of this your servant who delights in revering your name. Give me success today by granting me favor in the presence of man.

I love you, O LORD, my strength.   You LORD are my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.   I call to the LORD, who is worthy of praise, and I am saved from my enemies.

I thank you Lord for the strength that you have given me today. I pray in the precious name of Jesus Christ. Amen,

Carla Mormon/August 5, 2010

Oh To Be Led…

urbirthright, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , 1 Comment

Oh to be led by the Holy Spirit. It really is the only way to live. It we are left to our own devices we may coast for a while but eventually our worlds come crashing down. I know I need a Savior, for He is my strength and help.

His guidance and leadership in my life helps to keep me from the traps and pitfalls in this world. Even if I happen to make a wrong decision I know from firsthand experience God delivers. I just want to take this opportunity to Thank the Father for always having my back and my family’s back as well.

I recently read something very disturbing by someone I love and I immediately wanted to put them in check but the Holy Spirit stopped me and ministered to me on 2 thing…First to get my spirit correct but I was about to react in the flesh in the Name of Jesus (which is all kinds of wrong) and Second how to respond by not responding. Holy Spirit showed me that this person is truly Lost spiritually and how to intercede for them. I will have an opportunity to speak with this person and when I do I will have the correct (Holy Spirit Filled) words to benefit that soul.

I leave you with this one thing….Hate the Sin and Love the Person……

True Elevation

God has a better plan for you than you can even imagine. I was reading in Act ch 6 this morning where the 12 disciples of Jesus were in need of someone to step in and handle the business of the ministry. The 12 needed help…someone to serve. The requirements of the 7 individuals needed for service, were men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost, and Wisdom. The 7 were chosen and of the 7, 2 stood out the more. Phillip and Steven although qualified for service and served well they had extra. Man chose them to serve but God chose them to win souls.

If you read the accounts of Stephen and Phillip you will see great exploits for the LORD. These men were chosen to serve and in their service and commitment to the cause GOD elevated them. They remained humble and faithful and HOLY. God had a better plan for their lives.

God has a better plan for your life as well. God can choose you, fill you with the His Spirit, and elevate you to a place where healing and salvation is the ministry you steward. Oh, how marvelous to be in His will and plan for our lives. Ask God for those qualifications: honest report, full of the Holy Spirit and Wisdom then remain humble and faithful and watch God himself elevate you.

Between Called and Chosen

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

A lot goes on between being called and being chosen. I want to give you 3 keys you need to succeed in this process.
1. Attitude 2. Preparation 3. Endurance    Matthew 22:14  King James Version (KJV) 14 For many are called, but few are chosen.

These 3 keys will guide you on your pre-ordained journey by GOD.  You must have the right attitude especially when dealing with people.  So often people will talk you right out of your GOD given Destiny.  You must remain focused and on the path that GOD has for you. Do not be swayed by distractions set up to stop you.  Stay positive, speak positive, and fellowship with like minded people.

Preparation can be a hard task master but the outcome is well worth it..  It is in the making where you will be tried and tested.  In the preparation process you will learn how to move and operate in your calling.  Although you are pre-ordained to your calling you will still have to be trained and taught. Be willing to learn and ask Holy Spirit for help because Holy Spirit is the Teacher of all things.  Ask Holy Spirit for the right teacher in the natural as well.  Also be open to correction….with correction comes growth.

Lastly, but not least Endurance.  You will have to be willing to go the long haul.  Your journey may not be easy or short but it can be obtained.  For we are more than conquerors and you Destiney is for you to conqueror. Hebrews 10:35-36 Amplified Bible (AMP)35 Do not, therefore, fling away your fearless confidence, for it carries a great and glorious compensation of reward. 36 For you have need of steadfast patience and endurance, so that you may perform and fully accomplish the will of God, and thus receive and [a]carry away [and enjoy to the full] what is promised.

Oh that Glorious moment when you go from being called to being Chosen.  (PTL)

Confidence

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

What is confidence? a feeling or belief that you or someone can do something well or succeed at something : the feeling of being certain that something will happen or that something is true

Synonyms: Trust, Belief, Faith, Credence, Conviction

Where do you have your confidence?  Is it in yourself?  Is it in your job? Is it in your spouse? Now, I’m not saying that to have confidence in those areas are necessarily bad things.  But, it is when they supersede your confidence in Jesus; a problem could arise.

This was an area I had to visit in my life.  Many years ago I had become so self-reliant that I put self, job, spouse, and Jesus all on the same level. I would even say I placed self slightly above them all. As circumstances arose and I began losing control in the areas I thought had straight, my confidence was shaken.

Only when I humbled myself and had “a come to Jesus meeting” that I realized that I was doing everything in my own strength.  I did not even notice what I was doing and how out of order I was.  It was in my time with the LORD that he began to show me my error and teach me.  You better believe I began correcting that error quickly. In all of my abilities I give God the Glory for real this time not just lips service but in heart service.

I simply shared with you to encourage you that putting your Confidence in Jesus is a sure thing.
