After Mt Carmel...

I meant to post this last year in September and it never posted. Well I thought it might be helpful...

Hello People,
I've been in a cave for like a month. Well a month and a half. After my Label Launch event (that was extremely successful and anointed) I kinda have been hidden for a little bit. I was planning to go to Connecticut to sing, but did not pray about it and because of a number of complications, never made it there. One reason being that it was prophesied that the enemy (the devil himself) was seeking to take my life through a car accident had I went to CT. He was trying to thwart my destiny and the furthering of the music God has given me. Another reason, was that I for a brief moment lost touch in hearing the Inspiration (God) for my music and thought it was about me. Just a moment. But many of us know it only takes a moment for us to receive the wiles of pride as we begin to ascend to the pedestals of our mind. Only to find we are fallible or "Fall"-able.

So for the past month, being scared out my wits, I retreated and put the ministry on hold. Does this sound familiar?

I wonder how many of us, after we have had a high anointed experience, begin to retreat to depths of entrenched depression and away from the Christ and the Power that saved us, emboldened us to stand fiercely and was well able to keep us if we only continued to trust Him? Much like Elijah after the Mt Carmel experience (1Kings 19), we run away at the instance the enemy has threatened our lives. But aren't we supposed to be able to stand in difficult times, or when the enemy threatens us? I was really upset at the thought that I was not able to go, but even more upset that I didn't stand. I believe Elijah was an example for us to learn from not necessarily follow. We don't have to run from the enemy and waste precious time that the Lord could be using to help us minister His word across nations. We must make a conscious decision to let God rule and reign in our life. And if we do that effectively, then there's no room for fear. Perfect LOVE casts out fear. 1John 4:18

Much Love Fam,
RR
