God WHAT ABOUT ME!

God I been tryna have a better attitude. I've be trying to take better care of my family. I've been working hard in school and it seems like forever. I've been working hard at a job you know I don’t even care for. I've been studying for a test and I still can’t get it. I wanna live right but I don’t know how. I've been working out and still can’t drop a pound. Why do they have it easier than me? Why can I be recognized for the good I do? Why is my road harder than theirs..They don’t even loooove you? God why me!? Why I gotta wait? Why do I have to be still? Why am I not where I want to be in life right now? God, what about me?.

Do those words sound familiar? For me they were at some point. Sometimes they still are when I'm not leaning on his promises anymore. Recently I found myself in an ungrateful spirit and I needed God to remind me, its okay daughter your right where I planned you to be; relax and keep being faithful. I’ll admit, I wanted no parts of that. You ever feel like God was being still and you wanted to move? That was me. I said God why would you give me all these dreams and visions and not let me act on them and get them started? It wasn’t easy to hear but he basically told me there are levels to the things he has planned for me and I need to take my time with this life. Everything I dream of will come to pass, it simply takes time and patience.

So what to do we do when we feel like God has forgot about us and he doesn’t want us to fulfill our dreams? First I suggest getting your dreams and his dreams in alignment. I used to want to do so much more and God told me Kylie I never had that in the plans for you. It’s important to make sure you are on his agenda not your own. Secondly I suggest you open up that bible (or bible app for the new age saintsJ) to Galatians 6:10 which reads:

-And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. (KJV)

-Let us not lose heart and grow weary and faint in acting nobly and doing right, for in due time and at the appointed season we shall reap, if we do not loosen and relax our courage and faint. (AMP)

-Don't get tired of helping others. You will be rewarded when the time is right, if you don't give up (CEV)

-So let’s not allow ourselves to get fatigued doing good. At the right time we will harvest a good crop if we don’t give up, or quit. (MSG)

True story my book “God Set Me Up” came out in November. My honest goal was to sell one book even if it was to my mamma. To date I've sold 120 books. There are times when I've sold in bulk, there were times when I sold one or two a week, and there are times when I sold zero in a few weeks. Am I hung up on numbers, NO. There was a time though when I thought dang God why would you give me this content and not let the book take off. He showed me the book is actually taking off and I need to pump my brakes. First off I've sold 120 books. Now thats not as much as a New York best seller in their first week, but that is pretty good and that’s 120 more people that know my story. Secondly, the doors that have been opened for me from #gsmu have been amazing. I have reached people near and far and my little ministry is strong. All my supporters love my book and say it helped them in major ways. Do I want to be a bestselling author one day? YES! Am I on my way to selling this book and a few more? YES! So why get weary? We gotta keep at it. Too many times we get hung up on where we are NOT, we fail to see where we ARE. Keep doing things you aren’t passionate about and keep celebrating your small victories because we know God has a harvest on the other side of our obedience. I don’t care if I sell one book a week; that’s more than nothing. Get excited about where Gods taking you and know he has not forgot you. Pray for patience, peace, and preparation. While you wait you need to get ready so when you do reap (and you will), you can be thankful for all you had to endure through the process.

I love you and I'm glad you took the time to read one of the things I've been blessed to reap in my well doing (my blog). I hope you have a blessed week and know I am praying for you. If you need a copy of my book contact me NOW at kyliestores@yahoo.com. Also send me topics you would like featured on Sundays blog. Send prayer request and comments to my email as well.

Love,

YESSS!! God finally said NO?

6/21/2015

First Ill start by saying God is soooo good. This past week/weekend I went to a Christian Conference called Pinky Promise. If you haven’t heard of the movement get on ASAP it’s amazing. I always been a part of Pinky Promise, but to attend the conference was soo crazy. God is good. 2000 women and men praising God at the same time and receiving valuable advice on how to be young and living for the Lord was the best thing I have ever experienced. I wanted to blog about it more but God dropped something on my heart as I sat on the plane to come home so here it goes. 

There has been something on my mind for like a month now. I won’t get into details but just know I’ve been praying for a yes, no, or maybe so about a situation all weekend and God dropped it on me. I’ve been asking a really important question and he finally gave the answer. A big fat Noooooo. Chile I can only laugh at how REAL God is. Ill begin with saying NEVER give up on asking God to answer your prayers. I think people get caught up on getting the answer they see fit. For example you may be praying for a new job. You pray for Gods will but in your heart you’re really praying for a YES. You don’t want to hear God say maybe or even no. You wanna hear him say YES. Let me tell you baby God does NOT work like that.

It’s funny because I got so much conformation within five seconds. I prayed to God and said "God if it’s a NO please loose that NO now so I don’t waste another thought on it"..and he did! He got rid of it. I challenge you to pray wholeheartedly for your answers. God wants us to give him our all, and if that means telling you NO today then receive that. 

If I had to pray about that situation another day I would have probably lost my mind. I’m glad I know the answer but I’m even more thankful God gave me a receiving spirit. I know I’m changed and I know I’m maturing in my faith because if this was a year agooooo or maybe even a week agoooooo (lol) I woulda been begging God why or trying to change his mind. I woulda said God are you sure?! Mean while he knows what the deal is. At this point I accept the no and I’m on to what’s ahead.

You see the No is a Set Up (come throughhhhh God Set Me Up lol) for what God has to come. I’ll take this No because I thought this No was about be the best for me. Since it’s not going to happen I know my mind is about to be utterly BLOW and I’m anticipating what is next.

I’m praying so hard for you that you trust God and remain faithful to him. He may not answer your question right away. He may not answer it the way you want to. But I PROMISE YOU HE WILL ANSWER. He’s just good like that. Accept the NO and wait for the NEXT (which is the best). Don’t stop praying and don’t stop praising. God got you. 

I’m praying for you and I pray you have a blessed week. Any questions/concerns email me at kyliestores@yahoo.com. If you enjoy Sunday’s blog there is more where that comes from. Get my book TODAY. I’ll bring it to you and if you’re not in the area it will be sent to you in a few days! DM me on IG as well @prettykylie. Love you lots.

Kylie.

Satan-1 You-0

6/15/2015

This past week has been crazy. In a good way though. I have had a few times where I have felt spiritually attacked and I didn’t know why. Instead of acting clueless like I tend to sometimes, I ran to my source, the word. I have read the bible in its entirety before, and I have decided to do it again. I especially wanted to focus on the books of the bible that I knew but needed clarity on. Because of how I was feeling, and because of my new found journey through the word, I was lead to read the book of Job. Not too long after, I got a sweet word from the Lord and I hope it helps YOU.

In short, the book of Job is about a man who was 100% faithful to God even though he had EVRYTHING taken from him. God knew he could trust Job to stay faithful, so he choose him to be the one to bare such great loss. Satan however was in the Lords ear talking to him basically making bets that Job would forsake him if he didn’t bless him. Job talked to God in chapters 1 and 2. He went right along with the angels and had a full conversation with God. Now the story of Job is great and we can all learn about being faithful in times of trouble, but the real story is the relationship between Satan and God.

Not only did God talk to him, he entertained Satan’s request to mess with Job. I thought wow God you really had a full convo with the devil? Crazy right? WRONG. Satan knew his place and he knew he did not have all authority when it came to God. He also knew he could approach God even with the mess he was bringing. My conviction came on  Tuesday two days after church. I’ve talked to God and prayed to him, but I was challenged to do more. Immediately I texted a few friends challenging them to talk to God AT LEAST twice a day. If Satan talked to God twice during that time, that should challenge us to step up and show out. He needs to be on the mainline twice (morning and night), but throughout the day as well. We need him to show us what to say, how to respond, how to dress, and what to do in certain situations. We don’t need God just for major moves, we need to keep it as plain as saying “God what do you want me to do today?” “ Who do you want me to help?” “How do you want me to spend my money?”

I challenge you to do this during  the week and let me know how it worked. I promise I never sit at Gods table (reading the word, praying), and leave hungry! God always fills me with a thought, revelation, insight, and overall hope that it is working out and I can stay strong. I pray you have a Happy Sunday and a good week. I hope to see all my Pinky Promise sisters at the conference this week as well!

I love you! Any questions comments concerns leave them at the contact tab on this site or email me at kyliestores@yahoo.com. I’m praying for you, pray for me. Don’t forget the challenge.

Two gifts..FOR YOU

6/7/2015

0 Comments

 
Today church was all about witnessing. Being a witness simply means telling the good news of God to a non believer in the hopes that they come to have a personal relationship with Christ for themselves. I was too excited because this has actually been on my spirit lately. I wondered, out of all my friends, how many don’t know Jesus. How many aren’t sure if they will go to heaven when they die? How many of my friends are non believers? The message was right on time.

I don’t have a long story to tell today, but I do have gifts to tell you about. The first is the gift of salvation. My testimony is somewhat long and I can go on all day about it, but simply put God changed my life. Each and every year he has grown me and even more today than ever before. I see things differently and I'm learning about his love more. I want everyone to experience that and I want everyone to understand, if you accept Jesus into your heart as your Lord and savior you will be saved. Eternity is at stake and it’s time to stop playing with God. If you die tomorrow, where would you go?

If you are not saved or you’re unsure please please please email me at kyliestores@yahoo.com. All emails are confident and I will get back to your promptly. I see hundreds of people read my blog on a weekly basis especially for Sundays blog and I’m sure there is someone out there who does not know Jesus as their personal savior. If that’s you God told me to tell you the time is NOW. You see how crazy the world is getting? If you think your degrees, clothes, and money can save you your sadly mistaken. Ill pray with and for you and I won’t hold you long but believe me when we are done your life will never be the same J.

The second gift is my testimony! If you buy your copy of God Set Me Up today I will send you a second copy for half off ($7). I'm feeling nice today lol. If you buy it from this site, purchase one copy and send me a note in the PayPal screen saying you want your other copy for $7 and I will tell you how to do so. If you’re here in Pittsburgh I can meet with both copies for $22 this week! I have a story to tell and salvation is a huge part of it. God Set Me Up will set you up toward becoming a better you it’s not only about me. I want to share it with the world and I hope you find it in you to receive what God has placed in my heart.

Please don’t pass up on either offer especially the offer of salvation. I know you think your too far off track of you will never be good enough, but God is looking for people like YOU. He wants to see you do well in life and believe me when I tell you he’s serious about you spending eternity with him. I pray you make that move TODAY. I’ll be waiting to hear from YOU.

Love you and Happy Sunday

Love,

Kylie

Guess what..IM PREGNANT!

6/3/2015

Kids Kids Kids. Kylie loves the kids. I always wanted five kids but to find out I am due to have four in a few months is mind blowing. So today is the day I found out I am pregnant. Pregnant with three boys and one girl. What am I going to do. Ill first thank the Lord but let me tell you a story.

What is my pregnancy story about you ask, Nothing. That’s right nothing. Why nothing, because I'm not pregnant but now that I have your attention listen to how God did in fact teach me about the four kids I need to pay attention to. Last night I really did have a dream I was pregnant. It’s crazy because God always gives me these vivid dreams. In the dream, I was looking in a concordance asking God how he felt about me getting an abortion because I did not want to have the babies. I was still pregnant and I was not getting the abortion but I knew there was one thing I needed to abort; my lazy spirit of this relationship with the Lord.

Today, I was reading a post this guy put up about reading the book of Jude. I've read the book of Jude before but I never studied. After I got my hair washed, I came home and decided to dive in. If you never read the book of Jude, it’s simply telling us about false teachers and the fact that in these days’ people will twist the word to match their mess. It gives Christians instruction to stand firm, stay prayed up, and stay close to God so we can know the truth. It tells us that we need to help sinners and people who are away from the word so they will not perish. We must be loving yet firm with the word. I felt God telling me that’s good and all but how will you know what the truth is if you don’t spend adequate time with me? How can you defend the word if you don’t know what the word says? Well that’s when my kids came into play.

He said Kylie it’s like having three young sons. You come home from work and they are holding their hands behind their back knowing they stole all the cookies out the jar. Son Son number 1 is named Liar. He says whatever gets him out of trouble. He will tell you the opposite of the truth as long as it sounds right. You believed him so much though you’re not sure if he’s holding the cookies or not. Son Son 2 is False Teacher. He twists the Lords word, but you don’t stay in the word long enough to recognize he is doing so. Your last Son is Son Son number 3 or Mr. Confusion. He says things similar to the word so you can’t decide whether he took the cookies or not because his lies “sound right”. God said all your sons have the cookies behind your back but you don’t recognize them by their real name and know me good enough to understand they are deceiving you. Your fourth child is your daughter in the corner being good and he name is Truth. Truth is holding the bible behind her back ready to talk to you about what God revealed to her, but you’re always so focused on the next moves of your sons your too busy take time with her.

Now weather you get it or not, the point remains. We fill ourselves with lies, confusion, and we listen to people who appear to be good and know it all, but are really false teachers. We spend so much time with them; we don’t even see the truth in the word right before our eyes. Sorry to deceive you and lead you to thinking I’m pregnant but thanks for being nosy and getting a little truth on this Wednesday. Take time out for God. Write some prayers. Learn about the armor of God. There’s no way we can be ready to face the world and its opposition if we don’t know his word. Get with it people. God loves us and wants to be our EVERYTHING. Give him that chance.

Thanks for reading and I love you. Send any questions/comments to kyliestores@yahoo.com God bless.

What can Christians say: the right way to express some biblical truth..

6/1/2015

0 Comments

 
So we all know what happened concerning the Bruce Jenner photo. It was amazing to see how people responded. Those in favor were praised and received so much good feedback, but those who stood on their Christian morals and scriptures were ridiculed. I seen people say all Christians do is judge judge judge. It’s as if we are not allowed to say anything. Well I feel it’s time to tell the truth in an understanding way no matter who doesn’t like it. Let’s address scripture first.

Romans 12:2 (KJV)

And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

1 Corinthians 6:9-13 (MSG)

9-11Don’t you realize that this is not the way to live? Unjust people who don’t care about God will not be joining in his kingdom. Those who use and abuse each other, use and abuse sex, use and abuse the earth and everything in it, don’t qualify as citizens in God’s kingdom. A number of you know from experience what I’m talking about, for not so long ago you were on that list. Since then, you’ve been cleaned up and given a fresh start by Jesus, our Master, our Messiah, and by our God present in us, the Spirit.

12Just because something is technically legal doesn’t mean that it’s spiritually appropriate. If I went around doing whatever I thought I could get by with, I’d be a slave to my whims.

13You know the old saying, “First you eat to live, and then you live to eat”? Well, it may be true that the body is only a temporary thing, but that’s no excuse for stuffing your body with food, or indulging it with sex. Since the Master honors you with a body, honor him with your body!

2 Peter 3:8-9 (MSG)

 8-9Don’t overlook the obvious here, friends. With God, one day is as good as a thousand years, a thousand years as a day. God isn’t late with his promise as some measure lateness. He is restraining himself on account of you, holding back the End because he doesn’t want anyone lost. He’s giving everyone space and time to change.

I chose these three to show the firmness of God’s word. In 1 Corinthians, God does not only describe the sexual immoral, he describes drunkards, slanderers, and people filled with greed. I think so many times, people pick and choose what they want to apply the scripture to. If you get a good deal on shoes or if you get into college, it’s okay to find a prosperity scripture and hashtag “look at God”, but when someone speaks on the sin your living in its judging? NO! To me its conviction. Some people can’t handle the truth.

Do I have homosexual friends.. yes. Do I treat them any different No. That’s why 2 Peter is so important because its telling us no one is saying God hates homosexuals, in fact the scripture is teaching us he doesn’t want ANYONE lost. He’s holding back the wrath so we alllll can be saved. To me that’s good news. Do I think some Christians come off harsh and maybe even judgmental at times, yes. Overall though, I don’t think Christians should be condemned for speaking their opinion especially is it’s done in good taste.

If a well know Pastor cheated on his wife, the world would be quick to upload a meme with Kermit and a cup of tea (or whatever it is) and have a million things to say, but NO ONE ever says their “opinions” are judgmental. As soon as a Christian makes a statement, it’s Judging. I'm sorry I don’t understand. That’s why Romans 12:2 is important because its encouragement for Christians to not feel bad for specking biblical truth. This is not our world so we don’t have to be okay with things that dishonor God. If you ever feel like you’re alone in trying to speak biblical truth, you’re not.

Hosea 4:6 (NIV) says my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. What if there was someone out there who truly wanted to know what God feels about being homosexual. If all they seen were the Vanity Fair article and no one saying well here is another perspective on this, which way would they go? For all who may be thinking well Kylie what about your sin, here it is. If all I knew was that I needed to sex my boyfriend all day and night because it was what “everybody was doing” would I not do anything else? The truth is that is what I used to think. I would lay up and “do me” because I didn’t know any better. Was is right, looking back now I would scream NO not before I'm someone’s wife and in reality many people feel that way they just don’t have the Godly counsel to help them. It wasn’t until I started seeing people use biblical truth to CONVICT my heart that I said you know what..Ima stop because I'm worth more than this and God is tryna bless me with a hubby not another shorty.

The point is, we have to remove the blinders and call a thing a thing. Christians, we can’t judge but we can love the mess outta someone and pray for them until the wheels fall off if we don’t agree. My favorite scripture is 1 Peter 4:8 (NIV) that states “Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins”. No judgment, just love. And non believers or people who think all Christians do is judge, you have to understand we are entitled to express our word. Don’t take offense, let’s simply come together and see if we can understand one another and help each other. I can only offer what God places in my heart, it’s up to you to decide how you respond. I'm hopeful that it all works out and we can ALL live at peace with one another.

God bless, I love you and send all questions/concerns to kyliestores@yahoo.com
