Do What You Hear: The Final Call to Action

After my conversation with Bishop AJ Wright, a new revelation echoed in my spirit, completing the trilogy of my journey.

I had begun with "Write What You Hear," moved to "Trust What You Hear," and now, the final and most crucial step stood before me: "Do What You Hear."

We all have them - those brilliant ideas, those game-changing projects, those transformative visions. They're tucked away on hard drives, scribbled in Evernote, or jotted down on Post-it notes.

They're the dreams we've held onto, the plans we've made, and the promises we've whispered to ourselves. But they remain just that - ideas, plans, promises. It's time to change that.

This is your clarion call. It's time to roll up your sleeves, dive into those forgotten folders, and bring those ideas to life.

It's time to execute. No more waiting for the "perfect" moment, no more second-guessing, no more letting fear hold you back.

Do it scared. Do it even if you don't have all the answers. Do it because it's what you've been called to do.

Failure? It's a possibility. But remember this: if you fail, fail fast. Learn from it, pick yourself up, and get back in the game.

Every setback is a setup for a comeback. Every mistake is a lesson in disguise. But you'll never know if you don't take that first step.

So, to everyone reading this, take a deep breath, reflect on those dreams and ideas you've shelved for far too long, and make a commitment.

A commitment to act, to execute, to bring those dreams to fruition. It's not enough to just write and trust; you have to do.

The world needs what you have to offer. Your ideas, your projects, your visions - they have the power to change lives, communities, even the world. But they can't do that if they remain hidden away.

So, get to work. Dive into those projects, breathe life into those ideas, and let the world see what you're truly capable of.

Remember, it's not just about hearing; it's about doing. And as you do, may you find the fulfillment, success, and impact you've always dreamed of.

Trust What You Hear: The Next Step in Your Journey

The other day, I was on the phone with Bishop AJ Wright, pouring out my heart about these "crazy" thoughts I was having. Thoughts about business, ministry, and so much more.

Not negative or harmful thoughts, but those that challenge the status quo, that dare to dream bigger and bolder.

As I shared, he paused for a moment and then said to me, "Trust What You Hear." I was taken aback, rendered silent.

He had no idea that a few years ago, I penned an article titled Write What You Hear That article had become my mantra, my guiding light for releasing these "crazy" thoughts from the confines of my mind.

But as I reflected on his words, I realized that writing was just the beginning. It was the first step in a three-part journey.

Writing allowed me to give voice to my innermost thoughts and feelings, to bring them out into the open. But that was just phase one.

Phase two, as Bishop Wright so eloquently put it, is "Trust What You Hear."

We've all been there. That moment when a thought, an idea, or a feeling stirs deep within us. It might seem outlandish, maybe even a little crazy.

But it's there, persistent and undeniable. It's that gut feeling, that inner voice, telling us something important. And it's time we start listening.

"Trust What You Hear." It's more than just a phrase; it's a mantra, a way of life. It's about believing in that inner voice, even when the world tells you otherwise.

It's about pushing past the self-doubt, the second-guessing, and the fear of the unknown.

You see, our gut feelings, those inner nudges, are often our most honest guides. They're raw, unfiltered, and real.

They don't care about societal norms or what's "expected" of us. They just care about the truth. And deep down, we know it. That promise you feel in your heart? It's not a lie. It's as real as the air you breathe.

So, to anyone reading this, take a moment. Reflect. Think about that gut feeling you've been ignoring, that idea you've pushed to the back of your mind.

It's time to bring it to the forefront. Embrace it. Trust it. And then? Go for it. With all you've got.

Remember, life's too short for what-ifs. Trust in yourself, trust in your gut, and watch as the world opens up before you.

Write What You Hear: THE FIRST STEP IN MY JOURNEY

Over the past few days, I have had the chance to counsel several people in clearly different and separate fields. In all cases, I was led to just say Write What You Hear.

It is not just a divine directive for those people I spoke to, but a clarion call to myself. You see for years, I have had ideas and books boiling inside of me. But fear and obstinacy stopped me from heeding the call I heard.

For days, I will labor over the decision to write something that is rattling around in my brain. But no more. I must now Write What I Hear. This next session is for my religious people.

"And Jehovah answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tablets, that he may run that readeth it."

The call is so strong that even tonight I have had to stay up late just writing what I hear.

Some of it is for public consumption -

Other things are a part of the vision God is giving me for my life.

"And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions"

Not only must I write what I hear - I have to write what I see. What an awesome responsibility to share with you what I hear and what I see. I have established several writing resources to make writing easier. I will share with you in later posts -

But more importantly. What has God whispered to you in the middle of the night? In the middle of your quiet time, In the middle of your despair. What is he telling you to Write?

My friend please just do it - don't hesitate - don't worry about grammar -

Just Write What You Hear.

You Down
