I LIFTED YOU OUT OF THE MIRY CLAY. STOP ACTING LIKE YOU’RE STILL THERE.

I LIFTED YOU OUT OF THE MIRY CLAY. STOP ACTING LIKE YOU’RE STILL THERE.

"I lifted you out of the miry clay. Stop acting like you're still there".

The simple solution you're maybe not seeing is that every part of your life gets to flow with a lot more certainty than what it feels like, and that's actually available now.

The simple reality which is nonetheless true is that most people absolutely will not do anything about this fact, could potentially even pay the best and most spiritually aligned mentors in the world to guide them to it personally, and yet will still continue to do what they've always done,

and thus reap what they always have.

I don't care whether it's what you should be creating or selling, how to market and share it, the best way to call in your most ideal clients and community; the ones who God really put you here for, how to make decisions with your money, how to walk in RIGHT expectation of God's promises in your life, hearing and knowing what He is saying to you and what to do about or with it, having clarity on what to put down in your life and what to walk forward with, all of it all of it ALL of it -

is on the other side of being willing to simply stop taking action nobody ever told you to take.

By nobody I mean God,

your inner knowing, your spirit,

and your soul (mind, emotions, will),

absolutely and without exception in that order.

I lifted you out of the miry clay.  Stop acting like you're still there.

The issue is that a lot of the time even the smartest of us get it backwards at best yet for the most part don't even reach that. Instead listening on repeat to pretty much only their soul, with inner knowing a faded and thus increasingly dulled catch-cry from within which we don't really have time for right now thanks, and as for God?

Oh He's for Sunday, for occasional Bible study, and of course for moments of prayer or truly surrendering and seeking when we actually hit a painful wall for once instead of just one that we can't seem to get through and so apparently should keep body slamming ourselves against because hey -

it doesn't hurt that much,

it's just how life is anyway,

and besides, I'm too busy to ... erm ... stop forcing myself forward right now.

Let me explicitly understate when I say: it's a mess.

Let me also explicitly understate when I say: unless you do something about whichever part of all that applies to you now, your life will increasingly be a mess.

Finances will become harder, more painstaking. If you're lucky (*insert dubious face) enough to have 'em flowing, it will grossly cost you in your health, sanity, relationships, eternity. And in case you're wondering this applies whether saved or not saved because ... dead works is gonna leave you on the outer edge in the millennial kingdom.

Relationships will become more fraught, difficult, grievous, strained or at best simply not fully met.

Business or ministry will continue to slowly kill you; your brittle energy, lifeforce, mood, a sure sign of the fact that YOU are the one equipping things here no matter how purposeless it looks through a worldly lens.

Time will continue to not be your friend.

And your bodily bits will probably sag further than what you ever thought a person like you would possibly allow.

But don't worry, there'll mostly always be good wine and food if you want it. At least til this life is done.

Oh, and you'll never be short of somebody to woefully moan about it with, shaking your heads soberly at one another about the fact that you really are doing your best.

Look, you might even be one of those who manages to maintain some kind of pep and sparkle because you do NOT whinge; that's not you, and you really ARE giving it your all, that's you, and actually you feel about as good as anybody can feel about it all thanks Kat, just ...

something is missing within.

And it's getting harder to ignore.

Oh yes.

It's that kind of day.

God told me 'edify' when I asked Him what to write today, what I should say to His people. I wasn't so much thinking this angle for said edification; but that's how it's coming out.

Here is the good news.

All of that can change in a heartbeat, today.

And it is actually incredibly simple. Because what we're talking about? Is the fact that you have free reign and right for as long as you're still breathing to pull the emergency cord on all of it, acknowledge that this ain't it, and choose to see rightful order restored in how you show up.

Meaning ...

God first.

Followed by your own inner knowing and spirit (which He leads).

Followed by your mind, will and emotions, which is your soul, which in turn follows His leading through your spirit.

Do you feel the exhale even now? The glimmer of possibility? It's actually a full rainbow sparkly sky of possibility, because hope is ASSURED in God.

Not just salvationally, eternally, but also right here, right now.

When you choose rightful order in how you show up, you can walk in certainty, confidence, security, and provision, and be sure that everything which is for you will show up and can't not!

Now hold your horses for just a moment before you gallop off into a multi 7-figure internet qween dream. Yes I said qween.

Pretty much the first thing you need to do to apply all of this is ...

put down the false dreams and ideas of who you need to be in order to be enough.

Which is to say, put down the dreams you picked up when you were looking to be validated by the world.

Oh sure, you may well see, when you go all in with being led in your spirit, by the Spirit (Holy), that 'the things you thought it was always gonna be about' are still there.

But even if that's the case, lemme tell you they will be wildly different to what you thought, in the way you thought, and you will also be wildly different.

A softer more surrendered now finally safe you.

She is not one who is not unapologetic.

She is not one who is not fierce.

She is not one who does not relentlessly pursue what is for her.

But she is no longer one who does it on her terms, in her energy or strength, for her ideals or designed outcomes.

She has finally -

let go.

And trusted that who God made her to be is somebody who inherently as His child, gets to have.

Gets taken care of.

Is made worthy.

Receives a full inheritance.

Is provided for.

Cared for.

Called.

Anointed.

Designed for incredible works, incredible things.

Flows with the highest supernatural power of the entire universe.

Do you get it?

There is not a dream you could dream or work an entire lifetime to make happen which comes in at even a fraction of the value of who God made you to be and what He has for you!

So sister,

put down the push today.

Put down 'if only I could get to that one more place'.

Put down the idea that right now you at ALL know what it's meant to be about.

And pick up, maybe finally fully, the identity God has given you as His child.

Redeemed.

Set free.

Delivered from the things of this world.

And called for a purpose beyond your imagination, with everything required to fulfil that purpose and also to cause your life to simply BE right,

given.

A few weeks back the Lord said to me -

"I lifted you out of the miry clay.

Stop acting like you're still there".

I feel that today,

this is for you.

Now don't forget -

Life is Now. Press Play.

Over the past nearly 2 decades I've been blessed to have brought through me a multiple 8-figure coaching brand online. I have a new ministry Katrina Ruth Ministries, and God has taken over the 'show' at the coaching business The Katrina Ruth Show.

I write, speak, create and share whatever He leads me to each day. Always Spirit-led. 

I run programs and courses for faith-led entrepreneurs who desire to walk their true path of destiny in Him. And to see all that SHOULD be come to fruition in their business, wealth, relationships, stewardship of their spiritual and supernatural gifts and anointings - all of it.

I am a prolific creator and have created over 300 successful courses, workshops, and the like in my nearly 20 years online … and hundreds more which I would not term as so successful. These span all sorts of topics from traditional business, to all elements of online sales and marketing, to money mindset, fitness, and most of all / my favourite … the things which just come through and remind you of how to be YOU. 

I learned a long time ago not to question whether it meant I am not 'doing something right' to keep creating.

I was born to let things through. It is like BREATH to me to do so.

Praise the Lord I get to now do it only in what is TRUE!
