Embrace your worth.
“and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in[a] Christ—the righteousness that comes from God based on faith. 10 I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death” Phi 3:9-10
Dear brides, I want to share what I learned from the Homegrown courses (https://rmiou.com/hgc/) and the lesson “Horses Hoped for”(https://homegrownministries.com/hp/hh4/)
This week I want to start by giving thanks to our Lover for he has been so good to me, I am very grateful.
1. After applying for my professional body regulation 1 year ago, I finally received that I was successfully accepted. This is huge because only God could have done that, there were a lot of obstacles to accomplish this and many people told me to give up, I am glad I trusted in the Lord instead even though I was tempted to give up, I am happy because this will allow me to reach to more people and more people will hear His word. (This was for an appointed time)
2. This week my husband moved away from our home, I thank my love because he told me to give thanks in all circumstances (Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus 1 The 5:16-18). I also thank Him because I was not in distress, or falling apart I was in supernatural peace, I found it even unusual. My journey started 3 years ago, and E.H lived with us, all time he never left, which meant also, frequent battles, enemy attacks, and struggles, even though God was molding me during the process I am grateful to have a break and be able to be myself, and express myself, and minister freely. I feel like I am on a honeymoon every day with Him.
I will wait for the Lord’s appointed time like this verse in this lesson spoke (“The vision is yet for the APPOINTED time; it hastens [hurries] toward the goal and will not fail. Though it tarries [seems slow], WAIT for it; for it will certainly come, it will not delay.’” Habakkuk 2:2-3.)
During the process, a thought came to my mind - if my husband wants to leave, it is because I am not good enough, or I hadn't done enough, and that has been my thought from the beginning when my husband said he wanted to leave which was 3 years ago. Guilt and condemnation were very long times with me during my journey, it took me a lot of time to understand the grace of God I had to pray for understanding. (he is doing a new thing) I needed to let go of what I believed.
My Love also said long ago that he wants me to rest, and he said there is a time for everything. (So now the case is closed. There remains no accusing voice of condemnation against those who are joined in life union with Jesus, the Anointed One. Romans 8:1 TPT).
But I kept the same mindset. It was during that moment that My love reminded me that I am valuable to Him, I felt so grateful not to have to fight or quarrel over anything, just His supernatural peace was evading me and just in time that all was happening my Love was ministering to me, telling me to embrace my worth that comes from Him (nothing that I had done), that gave me even more strength to remain calm and at peace.
Isn’t that great that all that we need is Faith in Him? I was so grateful that I burst into tears, to know how wide and long and high and deep His love for us is. His kindness makes us whole.
Because I lived for a long time trying to gain my way, through my efforts, instead of relying on the righteousness that comes from God through faith. It took me a long time to agree with my Love on this. (“and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in[a] Christ—the righteousness that comes from God based on faith. 10 I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death”. Phi 3:9
3. I am grateful that He has been a wonderful Heavenly Husband to my kids. The kids were what worried me the most, but once my Love said, that he never asked me to do this alone, meaning I am parenting with Him. The boys have been just the same, and when my younger cries sometimes for Dad, my older one says to him: “John do you want to live a long life in the land? My younger said yes. Then my older said: then be content with what you have! I laughed, but was thankful that my older one, was ok and even helped. 😊
Thank you for sharing this beautiful praise precious Naomi, I am grateful with you that you get to rest in our Darling Lord and what a wonderful HH to you and HF to your kids our Darling Lord is. And how it is so precious how your older child is teaching his younger brother, that is so beautiful.
It is precious to see, sometimes we don’t realise how much impact our HH is having on our children, they understand and are learning to rest on Him also. I know is all His grace. He is wonderful

For your Maker is your husband, the LORD of hosts is his name; and the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer, the God of the whole earth he is called.Isaiah 54:5
Muy cierto Naomi, recientemente me mudé casa a petición del ET y es como una luna de miel, lo que comentas de que ya no hay más peleas y momentos incómodos es radical el cambio, creo que eso es lo que nos hace preferir quedarnos a solas con nuestro EC, esa paz que sobrepasa todo entendimiento que comentas, la tranquilidad especial que tenemos a su lado es inigualable, aún cuando seguimos siendo humanas y seguimos en el proceso de moldearnos, nos equivocamos muchas veces, pero mientras seguimos a su lado tenemos la certeza de que todo estará muy bien y cada día nos enamoramos más de nuestro amado ❤️ bendiciones
Very true Naomi, I recently moved house at the request of the ET and it is like a honeymoon, what you say about the fact that there are no more fights and uncomfortable moments, the change is radical, I think that is what makes us prefer to be alone with our EC, that peace that surpasses all understanding that you mention, the special tranquility that we have at his side is unmatched, even when we remain human and continue in the process of molding ourselves, we make mistakes many times, but as long as we continue at his side we have the certainty that everything will be very well and every day we fall more in love with our loved one ❤️ blessings
Thank for your encouragement. Him by my side is all I need. I often tell Him I will do anything that He may request of me, but do not go away from my side, I need Him.
Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me. Psalms 51:11
Dear Naomi, thank you for sharing your heart. I love that you “take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ” (2 Corinthians 10:5). When we are able to do this, we really align His will with ours and we trust Him in everything we do. Keep pressing onto Him and enjoy this time with Him. Much love to you
That’s right Goia, that’s is so important, too agree with Him, take my thoughts captive and align myself with Him, He put me through the journey to do mainly that.
Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. Rom 12:2
I can’t help wondering with your older boy’s answer!! It’s really impressive,😲🙌 what a great Heavenly Father He is and what amazing and astonishing things He is willing and able to do for our children, His children.
Thank you for sharing praise Naomi. How wonderful our Beloved is to us and our children and how great that your older child is teaching his younger brother. Whenever we are able to rest in His love, it helps give us strength to face whatever challenges come our way.
Ha ha ! God use them a lot to minister to me too, I have seen HH being very good to my children, sometimes I am not that good and kind to them, The Lord’s kindness go beyond, way more than mine to them.
“You have taught children and infants to tell of your strength, silencing your enemies and all who oppose you.” Psalms 8:2 NLT
Wow, it touched my heart, thank you for sharing. Yes, our HH is so loving and caring. My EH is still not home, but I am so blessed to have my Lovely Heavenly Husband who is taking care of my children, their husbands and their children. I have seen the hands of God working with them and through them. He promised in ”Isaiah 54 verse 13 that all your children will be taught by the Lord and great will be their peace”.
Our Heavenly Husband always fulfilled what He promised in His WORD. I experienced His love and mercy upon me and my family. He’s all I want, he is all I need, and He is all I want. Without Him, I cannot do anything. Love you all lovely ladies and your family. God bless.
