  • It's time to led God lead, sis. In this season, I know He is calling some of us try TRY AGAIN, but this time with Him -- letting Him lead, letting Him order our steps, leaning not on our own understanding, and trusting His hand to guide us more than we trust our sight. In today's video, we are looking at Moses' life in Exodus 2-4 to get a better understanding of what it looks like to try again WITH God. From the text, we'll see happens when we DON'T wait on the Lord, how to bring God our fears, doubts, and hesitations about trying again, and ultimately what we can expect as we BOLDLY heed the calling He has placed on our lives. i hope you enjoy. love you!

    hey, sis. let's chat! today's question: where in your life is God asking you to try again?
    for me: girllll! i don't know where to begin 😅😂 there are a lots of places but i think the biggest one in this season is in realm of church community/ friendship. i had a less than great experience in a previous small group when I first moved to Atlanta and it's made me hesitant to "try again" in that area -- putting myself out there, expecting GENUINENESS from others, etc. & in His kindness, He led me to join a small group at our new church last month and it's been SOOO beautiful so far. Definitely learning how to take my time getting to know people and ask Him for discernment and truly lean on Him as I do this again.

      Maybe, my love life. I have a tendency to give things to God, then take it right back; because I don’t see the changes when I give it God. Maybe he is telling me to put him first then the rest will follow.

      For me, maybe trusting him with my life. Specifically love and career. I don't trust, mainly bc when I was doing what I thought was his will, those things didn't work out or have not yet come to pass so I began to question "maybe it wasn't God I heard", so I stopped dating, was unsure about my decisions, over thinking everything and fearful when making any type of decision. I was job hopping, but nothing felt like home. So now I am prayerful, still dealing with fear and trust, but making myself available to hear him and do what he says.

    Loved this video, Ms. Melody! I’m a 20 year old virgin who’s never kissed or did drugs or had sex or messed with anything secular. However I have faced lots of bullying and isolation from my Hebrew Israelite family members. I almost went down that route until I accepted Jesus as my savior in 2023. I no longer speak to my family and I moved out for college, but lately it’s been getting lonely. I wanna try again with God. Please pray for me, my name is Key 🤍🤍🤍

I fell far away from God for most of my adult life. I was so completely lost without him, but now I’m so completely found. God is telling me to try my LIFE over again, but this time with HIM. For the first time I feel like I can look forward to the future and it will be abundant because of God! Thank you Jesus

    I gave a testimony two Sundays ago about letting God take the lead in my life. I had a situation 3 months ago that left me in disappointment! My husband and family did their best to be my cheerleader and gave me the pep talk! As the months went by, God was talking to me, and I had decided to stop feeling sorry for myself. I tell you all, God is GOOD! Three months later, God showed me why He said no. I'm so grateful I didn't press on to get my way and instead left it in His hands. When God told Jeremiah: “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you," what makes us think He doesn't know us too and will direct our paths if we let Him! Stay strong in the Lord and listen to the Holy Spirit when He speaks❤

    I've been in a season that took two years. God has been working on many things within my soul and it's been a painful process. I sought intimacy with Him, and He met me over and over. In the end my biggest breakthrough was RECEIVING His love and RECEIVING Him as my husband (because I am a widow). Believe me, I tried to get through my own way, but when you're really leaning into Him, He will get you to a place where you accept His way. On the other side, I am more satisfied, content and peaceful. Recently, God called me to walk into church and give my testimony. No notes, just Holy Spirit led. My knees were knocking, but I spoke. Later, God made it clear that He had me testify before my spiritual family to confirm to my self that the season is over. Keep going if you are struggling! Go back to Him in prayer over and over because He is faithful and will finish what He started. Everything Melody advised is right on. You will make it through!

    I’ve been looking for a job for the past 9 months now, living on my own and trying to make it work. I dove headfirst into my faith the first 3 months and it was the most peaceful (and difficult) time of my life. After March though, I think I just got burnt out and hurt that I hadn’t seen any of the outcomes I’d expected and prayed for. The disappointment was just a bit too much for me to handle at the time. I think He’s now asking me to try again with trusting Him in my job search and career move. That He’ll take care of me, my family and the people I care about. That we’ll all be okay and that all I have to do is TRY to trust Him and worry only about the next step He’s asking me to take. Even though I can’t help but see all the ways that it can go wrong, all it takes is His hand I think for it all to change and go right again (maybe not in the same way, but in a new way). Hope you are all well. Stay strong ♥️

He is now directing me back to the East Coast, forcing me to lean on him completely. I’m leaving all my stability behind and headed back to my uncertain beginnings of NYC.
    I asked God for confirmation to help ease my fears. This video was the FIRST video to appear on my feed. I cried because I know god used you to speak to me. So I want to thank you for your obedience to God.

    Thank you so much for this video! I am 24, very introverted, I don't date, I tend to isolate myself too much, and I struggle a lot with social anxiety constantly doubting everything about myself and everyone around me. Your videos have helped me grow in faith so much; however, the more I grow, the more flaws I find in myself that I struggle to deal with mentally, emotionally, and physically. I find myself backsliding more and more and the things in my life that were once stable are now shaking and breaking down around me. My family and I have suffered so much loss for so many years, and we are currently facing eviction with nowhere to go. I just really need God to tell me directly what it is I am here for or where I fit in this life. I don't want to go through this anymore or feel like I am just wasting His time.
    Please just pray for me. Thank you.

    I want to try again with God in building my life from my home, to my friendships, and career with Jesus at the center. Even though I grew up Christian, I've been prone to wander and came back to Christ officially last year. Since then, he's been shaking up everything I thought I had; showing me who and what was my god before Him. I'm fully surrendering it all to Him now, so that my life can bring Him the glory.

    This is such perfect timing, i literally just was about to accept that i could not walk in obedience to God in the area of what I eat. I know my body does not like it when I eat sugary snacks and i had declared that I would stay away from refined sugar. But, my husband bought a whole carton of cookies yestefday and I have eaten more than is good for me.
    So, as I wrestled with myself a short while ago i asked for God to help me. My flesh was leading me to eat and I asked God for grace to resist. I had done well in the past, but this time i was about to give up.
    This message is right in time and I certainly will try again but this time I will do so with God.
    Thanks Melody.

    Hi Melody and everyone! Thank you for this video. This was such a great encouragement. I believe God is calling me to try again at my school. I am a writer studying screenwriting. I want to evangelize but I don't want to be forceful to people or pushy. So I believe God is calling me to try again and surrender my creative work of how I evangelize to others, so that I am not forceful but instead am actually spreading the gospel to people in a way that reflects the love and grace of Jesus. Something I also need to learn more about myself.
    So this was humbling and convicting, and I am thankful for this revelation and this video.

    There are few areas I could talk about, but the biggest two areas I believe God is leading me to try again is in my career and stepping out as a Christian content creator. It's been a difficult journey, especially on YT. I try to find the balance of working with what I have (e.g. equipment, editing, etc.) while trusting God to do His part in allowing me to reach my audience. I'm not an algorithm girly; I truly trust God to do what He does best! I started in October of last year and took a much needed break this summer & came back with a fresh perspective. I was disappointed because I hadn't reached some of my goals in these areas of my life, but I've let it all go & am trying to "try again". Would you consider doing a video about your journey as a content creator and maybe some tips for those that the Lord is calling into this space? Any advice would be helpful!

    Hey sis, this video was such a blessing and so timely 🙏🏼 I've been going through a season of waiting for God's deliverance and it has taken a lot for me mentally to keep trusting in God even though things aren't working out the way I've planned. But I think God is wanting me to try and trust him again because he's definitely done it before ❤❤❤

    In my life God is calling me to try again with my health and letting him speak to me through the process required to bring me solution and understanding of my body and self on a deeper level. It's been a struggling and stressful process and at times I've wanted to give up, throw in the towel and just put up with it but I just keep being reminded to take my time, see it through, trust the process and that it won't be this way forever as long as I stay the course, I will receive all the answers & knowledge to get through this and even to help someone else!

    Love this! I really believe God is trying to teach to me to trust again but with Him, to trust Him first then learn to trust others. This message also spoke to me in a different way not only about the obedience that you touched on but also the fact that God already qualified Moses for the job even after being a “murderer”. Even with our sins and imperfections, God can still call and use us for greatness!

    You have such an anointing of teaching over you sis! I feel like this moment, the Lord is calling be back to education where I experienced so much resentment and sadness and even pts, and gossip I felt persecuted I felt so alone at my old job from 9 years ago that I had left in 2016. I’m currently interviewing for another university for employment and the last 2 years have been so discouraging because I’ve lost my job three separate times, I felt I was doing it with the Lord and I still do. I felt the Lord kept bringing to my attention Moses, I heard it in my spirit three times and I failed to understand what He meant by it, your video made it simple and it gave me encouragement to try again, try again with Him. Pray for me, that I would be filled with courage and that He would be glorified because many there aren’t saved. Ty for your video it blessed me.☺️😊

    God is telling me to try again with school. Last fall I got into my dream college and it has been one heck of a ride. I even wanted to leave and actively tried to figure out how I could go to another school. But this school has everything that I need and I realize that God is using this to strengthen me. Because I knew people who came here. Which is also very rare because of where my school is located. But I severely underestimated just how tough it would be. But they have the best Chinese program in the state. And it was a blessing to get in and I have to remind myself that this is just the part of the story that's difficult but one day this shall pass.

    Hello Melody! This video has been confirmation of what God is calling me to do. I wasn’t going to post anything because comments get lost or buried in comment section, but this time I will be obedient. God has been calling me to share his word for awhile, in my own unique way, but I have doubted my ability and knowledge of his word. I’ve been watching your channel since you were single living in your studio apartment. I’ve watched how God has matured you in His word. I am thankful and blessed for your obedience Melody.

    Thank you for sharing Melody! I feel like I have to try again when it comes to having a relationship with God. I often get “on fire” for the Lord and then I will fall off. I feel like I really focus on me doing my part that I forget about allowing God to do his part and to also allow God to take his time refining me. I want change to happen fast and when it doesn’t I get discouraged and feel like I must be the one person God cannot change. I know both patience and discipline are fruits of the Holy Spirit and I need those both on my journey.

Secondly, I’m not even 2 minutes in, & I started giggling because the Lord immediately started calling me out. Hahaha praise the Lord & His timing & convictions!! Look forward to seeing this video that you & the Lord have made, & what ways He plans to use it to transform my mind, & my brothers & sisters around us! Thank you Jesus! Thank you Friend! ❤️❤️

    This was so encouraging, Melody. I don’t usually comment on videos, but this truly touched my heart. Thank you for your obedience. I love the changes to the channel, too!
    God is calling me to try again with him regarding my career and health/wellness. I read another comment that said she’d given things over to the Lord many times and has taken it right back, and that struck a chord with me. I’ve done the same thing in both areas of my life. I need to fully surrender, trust, and know that God is faithful and sovereign and desires my collaboration with him, not me taking matters into my own hands (like Sarah in the Bible). Also, as you mentioned in the video, I often get hung up on what hasn’t happened (yet) and forget how the Father has blessed my career and restored my health in the past. And although the shift I’m longing for may take time, trusting God in our waiting seasons is paramount.
    Thanks again, and be blessed. I look forward to the next video!
    ~ Whitney

It’s such a tough city to be in solo and especially as a Christian, that along with the financials and personality development you have to have to be able to survive in the city. But like he said, all things are possible through him! Now we’re just figuring out how to prepare for this new season 💛

But I’m going to trust him like Moses because I can relate to when Moses said he isn’t the brightest individual 😅 and I darn near cried when Yah said “am I not the one who created the dumb” I don’t think I’m dumb but I struggle with math and that’s always stopped me from even taking an entrance exam 😅

I’ve started and stopped more times than I can count but my desire for health & wellness is so strong within me. In my prayer I heard God say something and I asked Him for confirmation so I would know it’s His plan for me as I try again. He led me to this video this morning and the title & the scriptures confirmed it. I’m trying again to get healthy for the Lord so I can continue doing the work He’s called me to do🙏🏾❤️

The fact that you switched down to every other week, trusting the Lord to continue to speak to people through you even though you felt nervous about it the algorithm and all of that, then me showing up here, is a testament to His plans at work! He will bring people to your channel, and He will work through you! I know I won't be the only new subscriber 😊 God bless you sis, keep on leaning on Him and trusting Him! No matter the outcome of your channel, His plans are perfect, and He will work everything together for your good, even if it's not the way you envisioned it ❤ Thank you for sharing the word of the Lord!

It was a struggle and while I did graduate and pass the bar, I haven't gotten a single job offer. I am trying again and not letting doubt get to me and praying through the entire process. I am doing it HIS way this time since I know he had me when I tried to do it my way and He has covered me. Now he is waiting for me to trust in Him fully and trust in HIS plan for me fully.
