Loved when you said, “Sometimes we have peace about a decision because the decisions are self-centered” 🙏🏾 hard truth

@tondaniraluswinga2590 9 ай бұрын

I agree. But from my experience, every good decision I have made has brought me peace in the end. Like If I make a bad decision. I am restless and can't even sleep

@tondaniraluswinga2590 honestly when I have made a wrong decision,I don't have peace about it. The peace doesn't come until the right decision is made,at least that's been my experience.

This is so good! I might add that spending time in God's presence and developing a relationship with Him involves surrendering our life to Him. If you spend time in His presence you'll have the discernment to know whether it's your flesh or the spirit. God is always speaking in our lives. There is no situation that He'll not respond too if you lay it at the altar.

“Is it a selfish decision, or a selfless decision?” AMEN 🙏🏾

@missmaya5110 Ай бұрын

I’m a little conflicted or maybe I should say I don’t really understand if my thought to cut my friend off is selfish or selfless according to Jackie’s definition. I thought I was being selfish and ok with cutting her off because I can’t remember when I wasn’t drained and even yelled at during/after our telephone conversations … no matter how sweet I talked. As we get older (grandmother), foolishness becomes a welcomed distance. I just cannot. Told her in recent talks that I love her but I can’t go back there. Is this selfish or selfless?

God had actual sent me wise counsel through a trusted coworker, but i rubbed it off and ended leaving my job for another one i thought would be better. I remember thinking i felt peace about my decision, but i know now i was operating out of fear.

@Grace2shar 9 ай бұрын

Jackie, I love how you drop wisdom and say, "Hopefully, that's helpful, bye!" 😂 But seriously, the fact that we might be okay with a decision because it is pleasing to ourselves, that's so true! We often choose the easiest, most painless, and self-centered decisions, and we feel justified in our selfishness. I also agree that not consulting others is a form of arrogance. We always think we know way more than we really do. We all need to humble ourselves and seek wise counsel from God and the godly men and women he has placed in our lives. I've been studying Solomon, who started out wise but ended up being destroyed because he did not consider what was pleasing to God. Choices are so important! Thank you for sharing!

Thank you so much Jackie! I’ve always struggle to “feel peace” when making decisions & often have to do what seems to honor God best. I’ve felt like something was wrong with me because I didn’t have the “peace” other people had, but this illuminated the real issue. God was teaching me to not walk by emotions & to learn how to walk in wisdom. Thank you for that. ❤

@jennerial 9 ай бұрын

I agree that you should ADD - is this pleasing to God, does this honor my neighbor, and seeking wise counsel where available. However I disagree with ignoring your emotions. God gives you alarms for a reason. If you are saved and praying on a regular basis I think you can trust those alarms. You should also heed closed vs open doors. Sometimes Satan will open a door that looks amazing but you still need to ask God to close doors that aren't for you and still need to wait and pray. Also you should know that any mistake you make while trying to seek Gods will - He will correct it. If you honestly think you should go right and thats the way God is leading you, but it turns out He wanted you to left He will find away to turn you in the right direction in a way where you will know that its Him. And normally the way that you know it's Him is PEACE not fear, torment or sleepless nights or scriptures that make no sense. Satan can quote scripture and you it to lead you in the wring direction - like he tried to do to Jesus. Im not saying everything has to be comfy and perfect for you to know its God. NO, it can be uncomfortable, difficult, hard ect but your heart should feel soild and still deep on the inside. Ask for confirmation like Gideon did. Use ALL these tools and your confidence in the decision you are making should improve drastically. And lastly step out and find out. Go on that first date, go to that interview, tour the campus ect. Trust that in those moments God will reveal whats good or whats bad. At some point you have to take action, if theres an explosion turn around.

@Daineah Ай бұрын

Really interesting point here. I remember praying for resignation, I was asking God for a confirmation that it's the right thing to do. I wanted to resign because my work was consuming so much of my time that I have less and less time for God and the ministry. After 2 years of praying, I woke up with a peace in my heart and I took it as God's confirmation and that He's saying yes resign. Was it comfortable? No. I was resigning with no work awaiting for me, but within me there's peace. Am I pleasing myself? Not really because I was actually placing myself in a difficult position of losing an income. Cut the story short, I sent my resignation but my boss bargained and asked what do I want to do in life. Told him everything I want to do, and he said to me, 'Well how about we make a job in your own terms?' Fast forward, I'm still in the same job and growing. Let's not forget that peace is still a valid sign of God's confirmation but I agree that it must be accompanied with wisdom from the Lord to interpret correctly.

I see how in some cases, feeling peace about something could be the same as saying it just feels good. Maybe our perceived peace is just relief because we're avoiding something God wants to use to grow us.

@lindajames3594 9 ай бұрын

Yes, Amen! I'm also convinced that we've made peace a feeling when the bible speaks of it as a state of being, a noun, and most importantly a fruit of the Spirit. I agree that our decisions should be made according to faith - for without faith, it is impossible to please God.

@brauliocosta543 9 ай бұрын

I have been living in a valley of many decisions to make and this afternoon before I meditated on God's Word I prayed asking Him for guidance and to order my steps because I don't know which decisions to make and this was literally the video that popped up when I opened KZfaq to play a worship song before I meditated on the Word of God. This video was an answer to my prayer, thank you and yes it helped so much! May God continue blessing your ministry and put His words upon thy lips.

Jackie always comes through with that rock-solid word that dismantles our sand castles (whatever we thought was right and working). She digs up the lies/false beliefs, exposes the root, and then gives us that good soil (alignment with the word) so we can get to planting (sowing the word into our life through action/application) and living a life blessed by God for God!

Thanks a lot Jackie. I found this really helpful. While I was watching, Rom 12:2 came to my mind.. I now see better why a renewed mind is important to discern the will of God. A mind that is not renewed can have 'peace' making a decision that is not the will of God.

This helps me so much! I thank God. I've always had an issue with this because I'd only encountered it when it was just something the other person WANTED to do. Then there have been times where the Father wanted me to do something and I had no peace whatsoever because it was new and out of my comfort zone. I would feel bad because I didn't have that "peace" people spoke of, BUT I did see God fulfill his promise🤷🏾‍♀️. I decided not to go off feeling but the Word and be confident in His Word and not me.

@ChildofGod98765 9 ай бұрын

Thank you God for giving me strength to keep trust in you. . I know it’s important to trust God no matter what we are going through. Blind faith and the Love of Jesus. My husband passed years ago I miss him dearly. As a single mother things are hard on me. Both of my sons are autistic. I’m constantly struggling to provide for them and now that I’m home schooling them my hours to work are limited. I’m overwhelmed. Father God hear my prayers. My faith in you is strong! Even as I constantly struggle to pay my rent. And I constantly struggle to provide groceries for my children. Jesus I call on you for strength. I will keep faith. Walking with faith is the only thing I can do. Thank you God. Father you have provided this far and for that I’m so grateful. Faith over fear.

@olufunmilolamafimisebi6502 Ай бұрын

Hello @ChildofGod98765 , this was the scripture verse that came to mind for you after reading your comment. Matthew 9:22 KJV But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, He said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy FAITH hath made thee WHOLE. And the woman was made whole from that hour. Please note: To be whole means… To restore (someone) to a sound, healthy, or otherwise favorable condition. I pray the LORD makes you and children whole as it is written in His Word in Jesus name. Amen. Be encouraged and keep the faith. 🙏🏽
