HOW TO FIND YOUR PERSONAL STYLE
Hey Guys!
Today I will be discussing how to find your own
unique personal style.
1.
Self-confidence: Self-confidence is the first stage to any journey of self-development.
And this is where you need to begin to discover your personal style because your
personal style needs your personality. In
order to truly reflect who you are externally, you need to know who you are
internally. So start to spend time with yourself so who you are can be
adequately reflected in what you wear.
2.
Reflection defeats
perception: When
you begin to get comfortable in your skin, your style exudes the calm you are
experiencing within; hence your reflection starts to defeat people’s
perception. As you walk more and more in ease, you will notice your environment
will adjust to exude your personality. And that is what style is-an avenue for
you to use so don’t feel abused by how other’s view you-focus on you and watch your reflection begin to defeat
people’s perceptions.
3.
Coordination flows
through interaction: When you begin to have
inner peace, watch as your style begins to reflect your inner sanctuary. You will
notice your perception and reflection will merge to create coordination in how
you mix and match pieces. You will begin to feel a natural resistance to
certain coordinated pieces and at the same time you will become drawn to
experiment with certain interesting pieces. The interesting part of this
process is it is a reflection of your daily relations-the same way you feel a
natural flow or friction in certain interactions is the same way you have given
your style permission to speak into your coordination-and hence you will notice
the more you listen, the more ideas naturally gravitate on how to mix your
pieces.
4. Signature pieces do not require a sacrifice of your finances: Listen: you do not need to break the bank to be able to look classy and chic. Invest accordingly. For instance, today I was complemented on a poncho I purchased recently and I was asked where it was from-the funniest thing happened when I mentioned a high street store. Everyone burst out laughing in shock. I tell this story because I want you to understand the more you begin to practice the art of freeing yourself creatively, you will notice treasures in the most unusual places. You do not need to break the bank to create signature pieces. This is a misperception of how style flows into your personality-no matter your budget-you can still look good-so shop accordingly.
5.
Mistakes are a part of the process to unleashing your identity: Listen-everyone
has had a fashion faux pas more than they would wish to admit openly. It’s a natural
part of the process of growing into your personality. So free yourself and
allow your intuition to experiment without boundaries-that way, you give
yourself permission to discover a whole new side to your creativity.
Q: Can you
describe your personality in one word?
A: For
instance, your style may be simple and chic. So chic pieces and allow your mind
to mix and match and visualize how you would wear them-the more you practice the
better you will become at it and soon you will become more comfortable with
your own personal style choices.

HOW TO EXPERIENCE THE HOLY SPIRIT
Acts 13:2-3 (NIV):
2 While they were
worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me
Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.” 3 So
after they had fasted and prayed, they placed their hands on them and sent them
off.
Hey Guys! Today I wanted to do a quick simple study on the
Holy Spirit. I feel the Holy Spirit should be taught more in the body of
Christ. And so I wanted to take a passage of Scripture and show you all a bit
of Him as He enables me to do so.
1. Worship: You experience the Holy Spirit when you
worship the LORD-so are you
worshipping the LORD? Remember Romans 12:1 says we should be a living sacrifice
and offer ourselves as holy and pleasing to God-this is true and proper
worship. And this is the only way you get to experience the Holy Spirit.
This is because the LORD inhabits in the praises of His
people (Psalm 22:3).
Also remember that the Word says we are a temple of the Holy
Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19). So are you a
temple? Have you surrendered your body to the LORD as a living sacrifice
through your worship to Him in your lifestyle? Home? Friends? Family? This is
how you can experience the presence of the Holy Spirit.
2. Spiritual Growth: Notice
also the worshippers were fasting-this spoke to me because it meant they were
concentrated on connecting with the LORD. To fast is to abstain from food or
drinks for religious reasons as the Dictionary explains but it is a spiritual
exercise. So are you exercising yourself spiritually? Are you spending time in
God’s presence? Do you talk to Him? Do you listen to Him? Do you live for Him?
These are steps to show your act of sacrifice and build your spiritual muscle
to be sensitive to His voice-His Spirit.
And notice that after this act of worship and during the
fasting, the Spirit spoke. So He speaks when you worship God and you practice
spending time in His presence-this is how you experience the Holy Spirit in
your life. Worshipping God is not only through praise but also through
obedience in your day-to-day activities and choices. And the Holy Spirit always
sets us apart by name. God knows your name (Jeremiah 1:5). He knows everything
about you more than you could possibly imagine. And His Spirit enables you to
connect with God’s knowledge of who you are as He sets you apart. The Holy
Spirit will never ask you to do something contrary to God’s Word-so if you try
and attach scripture to some act of disobedient that is not the Spirit of the
LORD because it is by His Spirit we are able to commune with Him (Romans 8:15).
3. Your Assignment: He has a
work for you. The Spirit of God will always have instructions for you if you
are positioned to listen through your relationship with God. He starts to call
to your heart-you feel a drawing, a connection to a particular area that is
very specific. That is the how the Spirit speaks because He wants to release
the anointing in your life in that area. And this is how ministries are
birthed, and intimacy with God is grown and developed-through this very strong
connection we receive because of the blood of Christ and by the unction of His
Spirit.
4. Obedience: But are
you obedient to these steps? Are you obedient to the call? Notice after the
Spirit spoke the people moved. They recognized His voice-the LORD says my sheep
knows my voice. The Holy Spirit will speak-but do you know His voice? You know
His voice when you spend time in the presence of God because it is His Spirit
as the LORD says it is not by power, might but by His Spirit.
So you first need to know Him. Notice they finished fasting
and prayer before they placed hands on them and set them off.
This is powerful because your first act of service should
always be to the LORD, and then you can
move into where He has called you to go. Nothing takes priority over His
presence in your life-and nothing should do so. Remember seek first the kingdom and all these things shall be added to you.
5. Faith Without Deeds Is Dead: Notice also their actions-after fasting and praying, they
placed hands on them and sent them off-there was agreement. You need to come into agreement with God in your
relationships, friendships, your lifestyle before you can be sent by Him
anywhere-some of us say use me LORD but
you wont listen to Him when He is speaking-so
how do you want Him to use you exactly?
6.
Partnership: The Holy
Spirit will speak to you specifically about your partners- notice Saul was
partnered with Barnabas in a gathering of worshippers-God will partner you with
who He wants you to work with. So don’t partner yourself without His
leadership. Listen to Him in all and every area of your life and this is how
you experience the presence of His Spirit.
These six steps will enable you to hear the voice of God as He speaks to you-I hope this Word encouraged you! God bless!
