Who hasn’t had moments or seasons where every day they feel defeated and just completely tired because everything seems to be coming at them at once. I’m here to say, I’ve been there, I’m there, but I am not staying there. The word tells us we fall seven times, but we get back up (Proverbs 24:16). God reminded me that I was losing focus because of the focus I was giving to the circumstances around me, hanging on to things, and trying to control things that I have no possible way of doing on my own. All I heard was, ” Melissa, your losing focus because you’re hanging on to things that you should have laid at my feet and had complete trust in Him and His word. I don’t know what anyone reading this is thinking or holding on to but I know someone needed to read this just as God put it in my heart.

FOCUS! KNOW THAT YOU ARE BLESSED!

It’s a new day! Choose to walk toward His promises. Choose to bring someone to know the mighty God that when he says drop it, you drop it because he is going to do a mighty work. Walk in faith giving God all the honor and glory as this shift is about to take place.

BUT YOU GOTTA DROP IT! JUST DROP IT! YOU DON’T NEED IT! ITS EXCESS! ITS NOT YOURS TO CARRY! DROP IT!

Does it look like you’re praying and trusting and nothing is happening? Maybe so!

Does it look completely dark all around you? Possibly so!

Does it look like destruction everywhere you look? Through your and my natural eyes…Absolutley!

I write this to someone reading this just as God asked me, ” Melissa, What are you doing?” Why are you carrying this?” DROP IT!”

God is preparing a new way, a new path, but if you lose focus and allow the enemy to make you think your down for the count you will continue to feel defeated. You will continue to walk with a heavy load that is all unneeded because it is excess.

FOCUS! If not you will miss the new way God is preparing for you!

Its time to sit up, look up, rise up, and DROP IT!

Walk in faith! 2 Corinthians 5:7 –  For we live by believing and not by seeing.

I encourage you to know that once you DROP It, whatever it may be, you are on your way to where God has been trying to lead you.

ITS TIME! DROP IT!

VICTORY IS YOURS!
