JUST STAND: EVEN WHEN YOU'RE NOT READY

My best friend says that if I had a superpower, it would be getting ready at warped speed.  I attribute this to two things: being a mom of boys, and not being a morning person.  As a boy mom, I learned when my kids were small that mommy better hurry and get dressed or they would be climbing on top of shelves or building forts with blankets that I had just put away.  As a night owl, that last ounce of sleep is precious time, so I’d rather not waste time primping when I can sleep.  I’ve developed a clear routine that has me ready and out the door in forty-five minutes or less.  But it took some time to perfect this.  My mom can tell you I certainly wasn’t this way as a teenager.  I can’t tell you how often I wasn’t ready on time.  Today I want to discuss how we can just stand even if we aren’t ready for something. I think it’s fitting to explore the life of Moses.   He clearly wasn’t looking to lead the Israelites out of Egypt.   He was ...

Just Stand: Part 3

In this video, I cover the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit.  Additionally, my friends at CC Designs have created an Unbroken & Undone t-shirt. To order, email info@ccdesignsprinting.com.  All profits go to this amazing small business (this is not a promotion or fundraiser for me).  Thank you for your prayers and know that I'm praying for you as we journey together unbroken.

Just Stand There: Introduction

"Jill, get still you're making me nervous." "I know, Grandmother, I make my own self nervous." This declaration at the age of seven occurred during a storm induced power outage. I was spending the night with my Grandmother, Joyce, which was a weekly tradition that continued into my late teen years. She was bustling around to light candles and, being afraid of the dark, I was hot on her heels. We often look back on that night and laugh because I was zipping around frantically, and my remark was precocious.  Sometimes, God would like for us to just be still. In fact, He states this in His Word several times.  As I have moved into this call to write, God has begun something in me that I would have never dreamed...or desired if I am being honest.  He is calling me to be a spiritual warrior. This unnatural shift for me has been completely supernatural as I take on the enemies of darkness without fear, knowing that God has put me into this position for this season of ...
