She's done it again!!! Bless you Prophetess Tracy Gale - you have written my mind ONCE again!!!! I have been going through life ( I am almost 35) waiting on VALIDATION...waiting on my father to validate me and give me my identity...For so long, I felt like a wanderer like a bastard child without any direction! So many promises and I felt there was no one to show me how to complete them. I mean, yes...I go to a prophetic church, but so does all of our other members...I was missing that 'personal' touch that you get from your FATHER! That "yes, daughter, I am PROUD of you...you CAN do it...You CAN be everything God said you could be word".....I was searching for the wrong thing in the wrong people! "Looking for love in all the wrong places" All the things I should have been accepting from my spiritual father I couldn't because, without even knowing it, I was searching for a natural father...well...I don't have a natural father, He has passed away...but the "void filler" the "completer" was there all along and I couldn't see it!
I was JUST sitting here this morning thinking...man, I feel "different" today...delivered from something even...something fell off of me and I didn't even realize what! I prayed and God said you are no longer NEEDY! He took me back to a point that was made in the message on Sunday that my pastor preached - "All that you have been waiting for and looking for and thought you didn't have in a father...I was that to you!" YES HE WAS! I KNOW whose and who I am! The only validation I need is from GOD my FATHER!!!! I love Lord! Time to move forward.......Enjoy! and SUPPORT Tracy Gale Ministries!
Complete
"Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ"- Philippians 1:6
I have not only heard, but know first hand what it feels like to wonder if the promises of God are really going to come to fruition in your life. I know what it feels like to wonder if someone missed it when they prophesied to you or did you somehow miss it during prayer? I know what it feels like when you have faithfully put on the whole armor of God and have stood as Ephesians instructs, but nothing seems to change. There's that nagging feeling like something is missing and you are not quite...complete.
Consider Joseph, the dreamer. As a young man, Joseph was given magnificent dreams from the Lord regarding his future. Yet, in those dreams, there was no indication of the rejection or persecution Joseph would have to endure. There was no indication of how long it would take. No hint about the relationships that would be broken. There were no prophetic dreams that Joseph would be sold into slavery by his own brothers, nothing mentioned about the wife of his master lying on him because he refused to sin with her, and not one word was brought up about Joseph being left in prison for years. However, in God's timing, Joseph's destiny was made... complete.
My friends, these are the hard places in our Christian walk. This is a part of the hardness that must be endured as a good soldier of Christ. Trusting in what we cannot see and walking into our destiny with faith that God's word will not return to Him unaccomplished. It will be...complete.
I don't know your exact situation today. You may have been abandoned and rejected by those who are supposed to love you. You may be in jail on false charges. Someone may have forgotten you even exist, but know that God has not forsaken you. God's plan and purpose for you hinges on His promise. He is not a man that He should lie (Num 23:19). His word is true and...complete.
Now, go through your process and let God complete you!
He's completing me,
Tracy Gale
