How to become a “Kept Woman”


Psalm 121(NASB)
A song of ascents.

I lift up my eyes to the hills where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.He will not let your foot slip he who watches over you will not slumber; indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.The Lord watches over you the Lord is your shade at your right hand; the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord will keep you from all harm he will watch over your life; the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.

This passage of scripture written as a song of ascents, is often attributed to King David and the issues he faced when going to war. Today, we will take a look at this passage to see it in a whole new light concerning how we as women of God can seek the Father for safety as we deal with the daily issues of life.

Because we are created ever so gently by the loving hands of our Father, women often experience and handle the difficulties in life quite differently then men. As carriers we often tend to pick up issues or struggles not necessarily in our best interest. When this happens, we often find ourselves burdened down more than we are supposed to be.

Despite what we may experience in life and even the issues we pick up and carry throughout our day, know that Father in His great mercy always gives us a way of escape.What are some of the ways you can escape the issues and cares of this life in a Godly manner? How can you unload what you have been falsely carrying? In the next few moments we will look at how you too can become a “kept woman.”

Psalm 121 has always been one of my favorite scriptures. Many years ago I began to read this Psalm almost daily because I had been working in a hostile work environment. During this time in this particular section, there was chaos everywhere so it was a true necessity for me to pray before, during and after work. Because the power of prayer was introduced and put into the atmosphere where I worked, despite the fact of it being a hostile environment; God honored His word and kept me. Although I knew God was going to keep me, there were still some things I had to do personally besides lifting my eyes up to the Him for help. 

Following are some keys on how to be kept by God even during times of chaos or hostility.

1.                  Keep an attitude and heart of prayer daily.
2.                  Keep yourself distanced from drama of any kind.
3.                  Speak what is needed to function as required by your job assignment.
4.                  Let your light shine on its own without telling people that you are the light.
5.                  Keep a journal of all issues both resolved and unresolved.(for easy reference if needed)
6.                  Continue to allow God to purify your love walk daily
7.                  Seek God for His strategy on how to operate in specific assignments.
8.                  Let God fight your battles; learn how to truly wait on His timing in all things. 
9.                  Adopt an excellent work ethic; work as unto the Lord not unto man.
10.              Learn how to truly laugh and live free of stress; but remember to keep all things in balance.


Prayerfully these tips have been of some help to you as you press towards the mark in Christ. Know that the word of God is tried and true about seeking after God and His righteousness. When we do our part and follow after His truth, good will follow and God will watch over and keep us through anything. 

Blessings,

Relief From Spiritual Constipation

Galatians 5:1


It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.

Constipation usually occurs when there is not enough fiber in the diet or not enough water being taken in to soften the waste which needs to pass through the body. The use of certain medications and certain illnesses may also contribute to people becoming constipated.

Many may question how being spiritually constipated correlates with being constipated in the natural. But as you will see in a moment, what we experience in the natural (our bodies) very much parallel what we go through in the spirit.

If you have ever found yourself seriously constipated, you know how uncomfortable this feeling can be. Being constipated can sometimes cause abdominal pain, unexplained weight loss and even make you feel nauseous. When this happens an individual knows that it is way past time for them to seek relief. Being spiritual constipation works the same way, when your spirit is stopped up and you are unable to get a full release, you become stagnant in your spirit or dry so to speak. You may begin to experience pain down in your soul but can’t pinpoint the source of your discomfort. You will also find that you are unable to move forward because your stomach is so bloated that you are unable to move freely as you once were able to do. Lastly, you find yourself experiencing cramps which tend come and go even at some of the most inconvenient times.

So how do you spell relief? D-E-L-I-V-E-R-E-N-C-E!

Wondering what steps should you take to gaining deliverance from spiritual constipation and dryness? In the next few moments I will share with you the steps which Father God led me through as I personally gained freedom from a season of spiritual constipation.

1. First, ask the Holy Sprit to search your heart for any residue of unforgiveness from past hurts and or offences lingering down in the cracks and crevices.

2. Secondly, write down the names of those whom the Holy Spirit brings to your remembrance and then go down your list one name at a time to forgive and then release the person(s) completely.

3. Once you have completed your list, tear up or burn.

4. Next, take a moment to release God from anything negative you may feel in your heart towards Him.

5. Then spend some time in meditation and in study of the word.

6. Next, allow for the washing of the water of the word to rejuvenate your spirit through and through.

7. Set aside an appointed time to fellowship with the Father in worship and prayer.

8. Next, spend time listening for God’s wisdom/guidance on how you will need to proceed in your restored/refreshed state.

9. Spend some time in consecration weekly to maintain your new found deliverance.

10. Change your diet by adding in more fruits & vegetables. This is not only naturally but spiritually nourishing and it will help to keep your digestive tract clean.

What are some of the benefits from obtaining relief from spiritual constipation?

1. New found liberty in the spirit.

2. Closer fellowship with the Father, God.

3. More strategic prayer life.

4. Stronger foundation built upon the word of God.

5. Intensified Love walk.

6. Increased desire to walk in obedience to God’s commands.

7. Overflow of joy, peace & happiness.

Prayerfully this information has been of some benefit and you will now prayerfully consider taking what you have learned and making application to your life. Best wishes as you embark on your journey to gaining relief from spiritual constipation.
