Who’s ready to take their faith levels to C- #Craycray in 2016? Let them laugh and try to apply logic to every question they have about your destiny.

Living Example 1: Upon divine instruction in 2015, I literally left everything behind in New York City with my dog, four suitcases and only $120 cash to join a ministry and next level of life in Chicago. I will write more about my experiences later! Genesis 12:1 The LORD had said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you…”

If you’re a true believer or desire to be a true believer of God (leave a comment below), you’ve got to possess a qualities of boldness and humility plus a solid identity of who you are especially at crucial turning points. I don’t toss random words out to get you hyped or to experience a temporary high, but rather they are motivating words to help get you to the next level and attain long life achievements. At my church, Living Word Christian Ministries, we hone in on possessing a personal relationship with God combined with faith. When these two combine, we welcome favor, elevation, the impossible and wealth to run and regulate our lives! This is the year of supernatural blessings. Now that 2016 has arrived, understand that God takes us from faith to faith throughout life. Romans 1:17 – “For in the Gospel a righteousness which God ascribes is revealed, both springing from faith and leading to faith [disclosed through the way of faith that arouses to more faith]. As it is written, The man who through faith is just and upright shall live and shall live by faith.” What exactly does that mean? Simply said: As you elevate and grow, you will need bigger and purer faith to step into His promises for you. You are just through your faith. What you believed worked last season and/or last year, but a new faith is required to proceed. When we seek Him first, our faith muscle gets bigger and stronger.

How will develop your identity and faith this year? While your development is personal, I can guarantee you that this kingdom principle will prove success on a consistent basis for your developments in life. Romans 10:17- So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

So if God gave you an idea, dream or instruction that seems impossible, equip yourself with His word and crazy faith. His promises will come to pass in your life!

Have an EXCELLENT day, night, afternoon no matter where you are in the world!

Love,

ChesZerae

A pause, but not a halt…

Hello everyone! Yes, it has been some time, and is now time to catch up! I appreciate everyone’s direct and indirect participation with my project.  To refresh those who may have recently engaged in reading my posts, I am on a journey that lasts for 124 days.  Wow– I have one day left!  The time went by very fast.  It has been exciting, challenging, awakening, pretty difficult,  moments of disappointment, tears, laughter and smiles.  Of course there were times when I wanted to throw the towel in, but God encouraged my heart to continue on.

Learning to Let Go

My urges to do certain things have drastically died down. My relationships have changed, and I’ve left the past behind me.  During this period of time, I didn’t realize that I was carrying so many things with me from my past.  I look back and am in awe of the baggage I’ve dropped thus far.  It’s not over yet; for life is a consistent and ever-changing  journey.  We as human beings  have a desire to build comfort zones so that we may live a consistent life.  Guess what? It doesn’t happen this way. I was a bit thrown off when I kept hearing this on a frequent basis throughout my journey from an array of pastors.  It is not by coincidence I’ve  learned this. Many times we are led by the Holy Spirit to make moves and we ignore them because we are comfortable with what we have surrounding us.  When it’s time to drop something, drop it. Changing careers? Change it.  New Relationship? Accept it!  As I mentioned a couple months ago–as part of my 24 vows–I forgave every person that has ever hurt me in any degree ( only to my knowledge), and I have apologized (only to my knowledge) to everyone I’ve ever hurt to some degree.

I find it very peaceful to write in the middle of the night.  It triggers my focus, and I am able to communicate with God in a better way.

Dreams: Pleasant awakening of a Reality…

I’ve been having dreams about people and various surroundings for the last couple of years and have found many of them to occur in real life.  Some of the people, I could not approach as they made it very clear they were not open to understanding them.  I’ve learned that the dreams that God gives to me are warnings, visions and/or eye openers for me to live by.  No, my dreams are not disturbing like nightmares, lol. I don’t want to freak you all out!  I’ll share one with you:

Personal Testimony….

About a year ago, I dreamt I was in my bedroom, and my bed was the focus point. When I looked closer to see what appeared to be a baby on my pillow, it was indeed a baby boy. He was roughly 4 months (like a newborn).  He had on a gray two-piece suit and was light-skinned ( close to my complexion) and he was sleeping.  Babies usually lie of their stomachs, but his face was shown to me as he slept on his back.  Now for those of you who know me, I am not crazy about considering children as I am not married yet and as we,  my friends and I,  identify with being Young & Free, lol! I woke up really puzzled and I told God: YOU KNOW I AM NOT READY FOR KIDS, PLEASE TELL ME YOU’RE SHOWING ME ANOTHER MEANING OR SOMEONE ELSE’S CHILD.  Hey, I’m a relatively honest person.  I am not diggin’ the birth of a child out of wedlock, considering I am not prepared. This is what I learned and embrace over the last 123 days.

Now, my estranged father, has disappointed several times, more-so over the past couple of years. This project has moved to me to forgive and to move on.  I made a promise to God and myself. I am  not a promise maker, but I had to do this if I wanted to really “live.”  My heart is saddened for the daughters and sons who don’t receive the proper emotional support from their dads and/or moms.  I am blessed to have a mother who never taught me to hate the other non-supportive parent.  My anger was voluntary, and I allowed it to build up over the last few years.  It got so out of control, that I blamed myself and judged every single man I’ve ever met. Well, it was for a reason as some of them really didn’t have what it takes, lol.  But seriously, I had to do something about it, because if I blinded myself with such wickedness, I’d never meet my future Boaz ( Google Boaz) nor would I be a beautiful woman inside-out. I didn’t want to carry that generational curse from his end.  I can’t be bitter towards men because of him. I can’t adopt certain qualities of a stubborn man.  I can’t hurt others around me like a disconnected family member. I can’t rest my head and deliberately sabotage my children’s means of communicating with one another.  I can’t step into the world of fame, acquiring a position to save people in the world, but yet have a cold heart  behind closed doors towards mine own family or specific relatives.  I can’t cut my children off if they’ve experienced a downfall in their lifetime. I cannot and will not be HIM.  I even debate if I’ll allow him to walk me down the aisle when I  marry in the future or even mention him when I am famous.  I’m just being real!  Many people would have never known I’ve struggled with that over the years, but it is what it is. And God is so marvelous and loving to me. He softened my heart, and I still love! I never stopped loving.  Isn’t that awesome? Isn’t GOD great?!!  So, what does this have to do with my dream of the baby boy? ALOT!  I told you all I never stopped loving. I have 6 siblings from my father’s side.  All of them I know, but three I haven’t spoken to in years as they live with him and his wife.  I pray that changes.  The other 3, I went out of my way to contact and spend time with. I’ve bulit a pretty solid relationship with my two sisters and brother.  They are a part of me just as a full-blooded sibling.  Recently, June 10,2009, I found my big sister! It amazes me how Facebook is a great means of communication! I was so scared and excited at the same time because we didn’t see each other for over 7 years. I am so glad she hyphenated her name as she is married now!  I was not sure if she would be bitter towards me as our father didn’t really bring us together. I started out with a short note hoping I’d get a response back. I waited with anxiety over the next 24 hours. I know the Bible tells us we should not be anxious over anything, but this was so new to me! When she responded back, I was moved! She was so positive about it and agreed we didn’t have to talk about the past. She and my bro-in-law are saved!! We were able to connect having that similarity!  Now get this, as she wrote me, she told me to check out the family album posted ( those of you who know about Facebook).  Oh my God, I am an Auntie! And guess what?  His name is Daniel, and he is now 7 months old (June 12, he made 6 months).  I finally understood and confirmed my dream. I dreamt of a connection I would later build.  I saw him in the Spirit before he was born. This was very meaningful to me.

We eventually moved on to talking on the phone ( taking it slow was the best remedy). I stayed with her, my bro-in-law and my nephew  this past July 4th weekend, and we had so much fun.  What touched me the most was this: No matter who or what comes in the way, If God said it, it is SAID AND DONE.  I am so overjoyed to know that Daniel ( my nephew) will grow up knowing me.  He is loved, and he’s a special boy!  I am sure someone out there needed to read this testimony. Know that if you reach out, you’ll get something back.

Official 2 weeks!!

I  guess to recap, I’ve accomplished some of my goals as I am conducting my project.  I am so tired ( a good tired) today.  It’s because I had a spa bath and a nice dinner, lol.  I hope you guys/gals are doing well today. 

Today’s Scripture:

Proverbs 11 Entire Chapter

I think it’s great to stay in Proverbs.  We know this world lacks a lot of wisdom.  Many believe educational papers solve their problems or believe it acts as a protective covering from being labeled as  “foolish.” A degree doesn’t make you better than the next person.  I know so many “scholars”  who lack common sense and wisdom. I even have some family members that way.  Now I am not offending those who will and have earned their degrees.  I have mine in History and Poly Sci.  I am saying your studies continue beyond the secular academic realm.  It is imperative that you seek wisdom in all that you do. Knowing every book or every stock status doesn’t make you intelligent.  It only means you are knowledgable in those specific areas, but it is not guaranteed you have the armor on to take on life’s adventures, struggles and turns.  Keep reading Proverbs along with me, and we will learn together.  

Tomorrow I start a new job : ) , so I will write tomorrow.  I pray that you all will have a beautiful week!

Thank you again for your faithful reading,

Goals: Got ’em? Now go get ’em!

Grab a notebook and begin writing down your goals.  This is the time to begin to evaluate what you want to see done in your life.  Make it personal, customize it, color it, etc..

 

Today’s Scripture

Proverbs 7: Entire Chapter

Tomorrow is my first day of  modeling school. Wow! I am really excited about this.  I am definitely looking forward to meeting other aspiring models as well.  I personally met with the director of admissions and she really complimented me on my poise, style and character.  She was ecstatic to learn of my on-line project and emphasized, I am “gonna really get the best out of the modeling realm upon completion of school and my project.  I will tell you guys/gals all about it.  I am discussing it because this is a goal I am willing to reach with all my effort.  This summer is dedicated to nutrition for my soul and mind, my physical body and my inner and outer beauty.  Pick a section you’d like to work on and share it with someone you trust.  I am more than open to hearing about your experiences.  Sometimes you never know how you can connect to other people’s experience in life. 🙂

Side Note: Everyone wants to hear about Mr. Devon  Carrington (NO LONGER ALLEN KING). This is the romance story I promise I will tell you guys all about.  I’ve changed his name, but my name in the story will remain the same.  Devon  and I spoke to each other yesterday (March 24, 2009) and it’s amazing how it feels as if I am pulled back into time when hearing his voice everytime we speak.  Allen and I met in July 2003 in another country.  While on the phone, he told me before I even asked him that I should go public about our story.  Then he mentioned something I always playfully thought about: “Ches, dear, write a book.”  I think we’re getting somewhere with this story…hmmm 🙂

Please keep in mind Devon  and I are not a pair as we live in two different worlds/countries.  This is a remarkable/romantic story to remind you all that love is real and it is imperative that we all get to experience this in our lifetimes. I am not completely sure when I will start writing as I would need to have it copy-written before putting it out there.  In this blog of mine, I will still tell the story in a shortened form.

Today I waited very late to post.  I had a very exciting and busy day.  Sorry for the late post.  Hope everyone is well today (when you are reading this).  Today my theme is Prayers & Smiles.

Today’s Scripture

Proverbs 6: Entire Chapter

Sometimes you just never know what people are going through.  Then there are times that we shouldn’t worry about petty things that naturally happen between people.  It was on my heart to discuss this.  We often find ourselves judging other based on our moods.  Don’t always assume that someone is feeling their 100% best.  If you sincerely mean it, ask them how are they doing.  Embrace someone. You never know how much encouragement you just gave the individual by offering a simple and kind action.  I learned a smile goes a long way than a pouting mouth or bad body language.  I have my days when I pout, lol. However, I remember that that energy needs not to last for the sake of a blessing to take place.  When was the last time you embraced your enemy? Your mother? Father? Sister? Brother? And the list goes on.  Embrace someone today.  Guaranteed it will lift your spirits as well as the other person’s spirits.

Praying and smiling does the heart, soul and mind well.  A simple thank you to God will brighten your day and remind you that things work together for happiness.  Take time to discover what makes you happy.  Find out what unlocks the door to happiness.  God wants us to be happy! Pray and get out there and smile!

Today my song entitled Diggin’ This was accepted and played tonight on another Internet Radio Station.  I was featured and warmly introduced to the live audience.   I received so much love and will be collaborating with some people to perform showcases for their companies. No thank you to me , but to God and my mother.  Let me find out my mother might be one of my managers, lol.   She was the one who pushed me to try out for a spot on the station.  Yesterday I started out with one connect and now I have six connects.  Internet Radio Stations are blowing up everywhere with millions of listeners ( check the statistics by researching).  I am picking up the pace with preparation thus far.  I also had the opportunity to collab with some other Djs today as well.  🙂 Pray, set aside yourself and put God first and let him do the rest.

Note: I will list my other 12 vows shortly.♥
