2020: The Year of Clear Vision. Not! For many, what could be shaken was shaken and worse. The events that life has brought has caused us to feel out of control…I tell you what, I don’t have a lot of time to develop this post, so the Lord gave me the idea to let this verse of song speak for me:
As soon as I stopped worrying Worrying how the story ends When I let go and I let God Let God have His way That's when things started happening When I stopped looking at back then When I let go and I let God Let God have His way I couldn't seem to fall asleep There was so much on my mind I was searching for that peace But the peace I could not find So then I kneeled down to pray I was praying 'help me please' Then He said 'you don't have to cry' 'Cause I'll supply all your needs As soon as I stopped worrying Worrying how the story ends When I let go and I let God Let God have His way That's when things started happening When I stopped looking at back then When I let go and I let God Let God have His way Let go, let God Let go, let God Let go, let God Let go, let God Let go, let God Let go, let God Let go, let God Let go (Where's The Walls? Y'all help me right here) Let go, let God Let go, let God Let go, let God Let go, let God Let go, you gotta let God Oh my brother, you gotta let go, and let God You can't handle it on your own, you gotta let go And let God, oh let God You gotta let go, and let God Oh my sister, let go, and let God Whether there's that bad job you don't like Or it's that boy that won't act right Oh, you gotta let go, and let God Oh, let go, you gotta let God Oh, let go, and let God You gotta believe Him, you gotta believe Him Oh believe Him, oh believe Him Because He cares and He loves you And He wants to see you win, and He wants to see you win You gotta let go, oooh Oooh, let God You gotta let go, and let God Let go, and let God Take your hands off of it, and let God You gotta let go, and let God You can't handle it, you gotta let God Take your hands off of it, and let God be God 'Cause you tried it already on your own And you couldn't make it, but God He can handle it, your ugliest things He can handle it, your ugliest things Let go, and let God Let go As soon as I stopped worrying Worrying how the story ends When I let go and I let God (You can have Your way in my life) Let God have His way (I'll lay it all down for You, Jesus) That's when things started happening (And I'll give You every part of me) When I stopped looking at back then (I let go) When I let go and I let God (Let Him have His way) I let God have His way.

We Have Work To Do
God's people have got to lay down our issues at His feet and leave them there because we are not equipped to handle them. What we need to do instead is find out what He has equipped us to do and get about doing it. Focusing on our own problems is not going to help us.
The enemy is raging and we are not in the churches, congregating, giving praise unto God and praying. Let me just say, that we don't need to be "in the building" to do these things. It is imperative in this hour that we praise God: render thanksgiving to Him-enter into His courts with thanksgiving and His courts with praise and bless His Holy Name because now like never before in your life-time, we need to pray against the evil that is coming against us in this country.
Pray. Pray that the gates of hell will not prevail against us in this place. Everything else that is going on around you is a distraction to keep you from focusing on the issue at hand. We as believers have a responsibility to raise our voices in prayer (and whatever else the Lord is speaking to you to do), and reverse the curse that is trying to invade our lives in this incredible moment of our national history.
What will your stance be? 2020 has been an upheaval for many, but you have an opportunity to rewrite your story if you give it all up to Him who has power to flip the script. Such the paradox isn't it? In order to get control, you have to give up control, take the reins off of God and let Him have His Way.
I must be going, I have much business to take care of at the moment over at silvanawilliamsbooks.com, which will be launching soon. Come on over and visit me, I'd love to have you. I will also be revamping this blog for the new year (better SEO, right-I know I'm working on it, smililing emoji). I have also posted a new prayer on my husband's new site, boldasalionoutreach.wordpress.com.
And remember, you really do have a divine opportunity to rewrite your story. 2020 has been a breakthrough year for me and God is not finished yet. Many of the projects that I have been working on will begin to unfold in the upcoming days and my prayer is that they will be a blessing to many.
Grace and Peace to you!
