Hi! My name is Melody Alisa - welcome to my channel. I lived in South Korea for two years where I met God and I documented my life as an English teacher (check out my Life in Korea playlist for more on this!) Now, I call Atlanta home. On my KZfaq channel, I share my Christian faith and life as a creative, a newlywed, and a new mom through weekly new videos!

hey, sis!! let's chat -- add the 6th thing to our list today! What is one more thing we should leave behind in 2023 (i'm sure there's lotssss to choose from!!) so we can draw closer to God?! Let us know in the comments!!

In all honesty social media as a whole. (Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, KZfaq, TikTok, Snapchat, all of it) It’s been getting in the way of my walk. And probably a majority of people. This world want to distract you away from god. So I would say if you want to get closer to him then you need to take long breaks in between social media consumption. 😅👍 Which I’m also saying this to myself too.

My number 6 is hopelessness. Letting the devil steal our hope and joy is something that I am working on leaving behind in 2023. In life we will have moments in our waiting/wilderness season where we feel hopeless. We can feel it for a little while but anchor on to Jesus and tell him exactly how you feel He can handle it. Hold on tightly because it doesn’t last forever even though it may feel like it. Having a flourishing godly community around you will also do wonders.

Social media is definitely one and I have to not drink water. I have to eat more fruit since I have Lupus because the medication isn’t something I want to be dependent on. Pills make my stomach upset so I have to start drinking more water on my days off. I tend to not eat or drink water at work due to my overreactive bladder. I have one because they had to cut off half of my uterus because of cancerous cells and I had surgery on my bladder to a non cancerous growth. They cut it off and wanted to see what it was. So I’ve had issues with my bladder being overreactive especially with water and tea.

As humans, we tend to worry almost about everything in our lives. We fear we might lose smthg if we give up control or we might not get it if we do not strive for it. Well, when you walk with the Lord, you rapidly learn that there's no losing. Don't be afraid to be rejected or miss out on things you think are important to you. The Lord has always the best for you. You just don't see it now.

I am so excited to walk into this next year with God. The 6th thing we should let go of is comparison! Everyone has a different journey. You never know what the next person is dealing with behind closed doors. We often only see one dimension of a person's life. Remind yourself that you are unique, special, and loved. Channel your energy into being inspired instead of comparing someone's Chapter 14 with your Chapter 1 or 2. Stay blessed everyone! Thank you Melody for this video!

In my opinion: #6: Comparing - making comparisons between you and colleagues, family, friends, neighbors, strangers. God has OUR unique plan/journey laid out for us so there is no need to compare yourself to someone else. You are uniquely and beautifully made in God's image. 🙏🏽

This was a much-needed video! 💫🙏🏽 My number 6 would be my lack of trust in God. I still struggle with fully trusting God, however, I understand now that trust is an important ingredient in building and maintaining a strong relationship, especially a relationship with God. I need to rest in knowing that God will always want what’s best for me, and even though I might not have the foresight, I should trust where he leads always! 🤍🌸

The Sixth thing that I'm leaving in 2023, is doubtfulness. The Lord is carrying me and my family through an uncomfortable journey and we've learned that it doesn't matter on the destination. The trust we have for Him is enough to know MY GOD WILL LEAVE NOR FORSAKE US !!! My God will provide for us and that's the spirit I'm carrying to the new year.

6. Carrying the burdens and battles God already has covered. Like you, @Melody Alisa, I grew up SUPER independent. Having to help raise my brother and becoming an adult before my time, has naturally evolved in my life and relationships. That seed has harbored an independence in me that gets in God's way! I feel it AFTER I pause in my fussing, anger and frustration as to why things are happening or working out in the way I believed they should. This is a daily battle. I pray as I draw closer to God this mindset diminishes! Thank you for this word as always, Sis.

@ayomideg8612 Hello Sis! Compliments of the season to you. Here are some of the things I did (in no particular order) 1. I made effort to fully commit to attending weekly Bible study (and Church services) and stop making excuses for missing attendance 2. I decided to set aside designated time to pray EVERYDAY rather than just waiting for a prayerful mood to hit me randomly...time to listen from God and worship. I found that secluded time like taking runs or jogs in nature was the best time for me to really connect with God uninterrupted by the beautiful chaos of my home 😅 3. I stopped waiting on the 'big' things in life to experience God's presence (nothing wrong with the big things btw) but instead I asked the Holy Spirit to intentionally show me daily little things I can find joy in and experience the goodness of God e.g gardening, watching a sunset, talking a walk and breathing in God's air etc 4. I spend a lot of time on youtube learning things daily and I purposely started curating what takes up more attention, and this was choosing more God-focused content than entertainment 5. I asked God to show me ways I can be a little more selfless and focus more on serving others than myself all the time. E.g, I started a personal tradition were every year on my birthday, I will choose a charitable organisation to go and donate to as a gift time myself. It felt amazing I could always come back n share more

I think you touched on it with the 3rd point. We need to leave behind our pride. Believing that we know better than God what our lives could and should look like and how we think as we can do things on our own, without His help and guidance. We need to stop being prodical daughters!

We need to cultivate the habit of prayer, worship and daily reminder through scriptures in the bible or a daily devotional focus on how to draw more closer to him because we can't do it on our own. And we need to keep track daily because i think consistency is the key. God bless you all...

Thank you for sharing these tools🥰 No 3 reminds me of a quick story my Pastor told us this Sunday...There was a man driving to the grocery store. He was in a big hurry and frantically searching for a parking spot. After going up and down each aisle twice, he says "God, if you give me a parking spot, I will go to church on Sunday" and no sooner than those words coming out of his mouth, a car directly in front of him started to back out of a spot. Then the man says "Never mind God, I got it" lol

I think that asking God to change our heart posture. Making sure we're looking deep within ourselves and asking God for help to remove things that keep us out of his and will and presence. My pastor said in a sermon that we have to make sure our relationship with God is not transactional. We can't only come to God when we need things. We want to seek him wholeheartedly. Really want his will, not ours.

Hey Sis! The 6th thing I would add to the list is letting go of your plans. I tend to come up with a way I see God doing things in a situation and when I don’t see it happening that way I end up with unnecessary stress, anxiety and tears. I remind myself of Jeremiah 29:11, Isaiah 55:8-9 to encourage myself not in these times.

My #6 is to surrender myself and my aspirations completely to God. There's no better partner in life than Him. I need to just trust the process even though sometimes it's hard because I really want to walk and even write again. God knows this and with His perfect timing it'll be so.

In order to grow closer to God we need to give up the people that God told us to let go off

I need to give up in believe. As much as I have faith in God and in what He can do, I still have limiting beliefs in other things even when I speak positively about that thing. There’s still this tiny feeling somewhere down there that doubts. I really want to give it up. I want to speak Gods will for my life into existence without quantifying it or thinking it’s too big for me or not. I know for sure that the enemy’s plan is for us to compromise. And when we do we settle. God didn’t create me and keep me this far to settle. Settling doesn’t glorify God in my life. So I pray against every limiting belief in my life and heart and I detach my spirit from it. Ijn amen. My faith is sound!
