The Shift (Safety, Hope, Intuition, Focus, Tell)
What is the shift? When you feel safe you can begin to hope, trusting your intuition as your guide. Focus on Christ for ultimate satisfaction. Tell someone you trust what you are experiencing.
You matter! You! Yes, I’m talking to you. The one reading this post. When God made you, He didn’t make a mistake. He didn’t say, oops, can I get a do over? No! He said you are fearfully and wonderfully made. He said that you are more than a conqueror. He said that no weapon formed against you shall prosper. DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS?! Yes, I’m shouting this absolutely phenomenal news to you! It means that you can now SHIFT from the SOS (Same old stuff) and…
Start “The Shift Movement”

What if you looked in the mirror today and said I will no longer give my power away? No More.
√ No more worrying, instead pray
√ No more staying up late at night on social media, instead, less social media, more peace.
√ No more giving my parents a hard time. Instead I will do things around the house without having to be told to.
√ No more thoughts of who likes me and who doesn’t. God who created only one me and He knew what he was doing. I celebrate my uniqueness.
√ No more obscene language will come from my mouth. Instead, I will challenge myself to use words that are uplifting and educational.
√ No more sleeping around. Every time I do that, I leave a piece of my soul with that person. I value my body more than that. Besides, I don’t want to get pregnant at this age and I certainly don’t want an STD. If a person keeps pushing for sex that means that they don’t love me, like they said they did.
√ No more cheating on my girlfriend/boyfriend. I wouldn’t want anyone to do that to me.
√ No more drinking and drugging. Those things cloud my mind and only afford temporary highs. I want to use my funds wisely and invest in my future.
√ No more “having” to buy designer clothes when there are people I can help who are less fortunate than I am.
√ No more instant anger. When I do that, I just admit that I’m afraid to the world. Instead, I will think before I act.
√ No more fear of failure. Instead I will fail forward. If I never try something, I’m hindering my own success.
√ No more negative self-talk. Every time a negative thought arises, I will immediately stop it and replace it with a positive thought.
√ No more being pressured into something that doesn’t sit right with my spirit. Instead, I will use that prompting as a warning.
√ No more fussing with my siblings. Instead, I will treat them the way I want to be treated.
√ No more sabotaging myself. I will be kind to myself and show mercy, just like I would to my best friend.
√ No more complaining. Instead, I will mentally count the many blessings I have and show gratitude.

Yes, I want change in my life!
My personal “shift” was a very long journey.
Jesus broke the chains, set me free and now I can live the life I was created for. This is a miracle and He’s not done with me yet.
I can share the hope.
Mary, thank you so much for sharing your “shift” journey! Taking the journey you did required courage and much prayer, I bet. You are so right, Jesus is not done with you. Please feel free to tell us more about your journey to share the hope.
Their is hope in a hopeless situation. God took what Satan meant for bad, turned it around for good. After 20 yrs of domestic abuse. I married my Boaz, I am now a pastor’s wife of a growing ministry. & CEO of Jessie’s House Foundation.. lift us in prayer, God gets the Glory!
Octavia: This is awesome! There is hope! Satan means to harm us, but God does turn things around for the good! Lord, I pray that Octavia and her Boaz continue to thrive in their marriage and ministry. Give them continued progress as they follow you. In Jesus’ name.
