2026: The Divine Separation: Ep. 13: Why God Is Pulling You Away in 2026

WEBVTT

00:00:10.031 --> 00:00:15.591
Welcome to the Diary of a Black Woman podcast, where we pray bold prayers,

00:00:16.091 --> 00:00:19.951
walk in bold faith, and expect a bold God to show up.

00:00:20.091 --> 00:00:25.671
I'm your host, Connie Morris, and we open every episode with the same unshakable

00:00:25.671 --> 00:00:29.611
confidence Jabez had in 1 Chronicles 4.10.

00:00:29.891 --> 00:00:35.611
Lord, bless me indeed, enlarge my territory, let your hand be with me,

00:00:35.971 --> 00:00:39.971
keep me from evil, and keep me from causing pain. And the Bible says,

00:00:40.491 --> 00:00:41.831
God granted his request.

00:00:42.031 --> 00:00:45.571
So if you're here today, get ready, because we're praying big,

00:00:45.951 --> 00:00:51.811
believing big, and walking in everything God promised. Let's begin.

00:01:01.848 --> 00:01:09.608
Welcome back to episode 14 of 2026, The Year When Heaven and Earth Intersect.

00:01:09.808 --> 00:01:15.028
I'm your host, Connie Morris, and today we step into a theme that every believer

00:01:15.028 --> 00:01:20.948
needs to understand if they're going to thrive in this year of shaking and glory.

00:01:21.308 --> 00:01:28.388
The title is The Divine Separation, Why God is Pulling You Away in 2026.

00:01:28.388 --> 00:01:32.708
You cannot enter a new season surrounded by old influences.

00:01:33.028 --> 00:01:37.588
You cannot step into a glory year with people who dull your spirit.

00:01:37.828 --> 00:01:44.028
And you cannot walk into divine purpose holding hands with people who don't want to grow.

00:01:44.288 --> 00:01:50.388
Before God reveals glory, before God promotes, before God shifts, he separates.

00:01:51.288 --> 00:01:56.788
The Hebrew year 5786, the year of the dividing line.

00:01:56.788 --> 00:02:01.528
5-7-8-6 prophetically represents separation, distinction,

00:02:02.188 --> 00:02:08.068
a cutting away, a boundary line, God drawing a spiritual line in the sand,

00:02:08.528 --> 00:02:14.088
consecration of his people, separation between the shaken and the unshaken.

00:02:14.328 --> 00:02:19.628
This is a year where God says, I am separating you so I can elevate you.

00:02:19.948 --> 00:02:21.488
Separation is not a punishment.

00:02:21.908 --> 00:02:24.108
Separation is preparation.

00:02:24.548 --> 00:02:30.948
So what is divine separation? Divine separation is when God pulls you out, cuts,

00:02:31.385 --> 00:02:35.965
people off, closes relational doors, remove access.

00:02:36.565 --> 00:02:42.265
Break unhealthy attachments, shift your environment, moves you away from what

00:02:42.265 --> 00:02:48.445
can't go with you, protects you from hidden sabotage, and redirects your circle.

00:02:48.625 --> 00:02:53.885
It is the spiritual equivalent of God saying, you cannot build your next season

00:02:53.885 --> 00:02:56.425
with these people. I just want to pause there.

00:02:56.945 --> 00:03:01.405
That sounds like it's going to be be a lot of separation. So that's why he keeps

00:03:01.405 --> 00:03:04.485
talking about this emotional attachment.

00:03:04.825 --> 00:03:11.905
We're going to have to start right now in our hearts to begin to pray and ask

00:03:11.905 --> 00:03:16.425
God, what attachments that I am connected to that are unhealthy?

00:03:16.645 --> 00:03:21.345
And I'm telling you, you will be surprised. If we will ever be with friends

00:03:21.345 --> 00:03:25.885
and we would just not be the main one talking and allow them to talk,

00:03:26.105 --> 00:03:30.705
you will find out exactly where the heart of most of your people that you hang

00:03:30.705 --> 00:03:33.205
around is. You can just listen, be a listener.

00:03:33.525 --> 00:03:38.245
And then right then you will know exactly what you need to separate from.

00:03:38.525 --> 00:03:41.725
Ask God for discernment, because he can show you some things you can't see,

00:03:42.045 --> 00:03:44.425
that you can't hear, only that he can't reveal.

00:03:44.645 --> 00:03:48.385
But then when he shows you that, don't make up excuses to say,

00:03:48.485 --> 00:03:50.565
you know, that's how she is, or that's how he is.

00:03:50.745 --> 00:03:53.645
No, no, no, no. This is a season of separation.

00:03:53.965 --> 00:03:57.545
So if you have some emotional attachment, some unhealthy emotional attachment,

00:03:57.785 --> 00:04:01.425
or you might be the star of the party because you're always the one talking.

00:04:01.825 --> 00:04:03.705
Just quiet your voice down and listen.

00:04:03.885 --> 00:04:07.285
Pay attention to what the other people are believing and saying.

00:04:07.505 --> 00:04:12.025
And I guarantee you, God won't have to move you. You will begin to move yourself.

00:04:12.345 --> 00:04:17.265
You will find out why your anointing is, your oil is empty all the time.

00:04:17.365 --> 00:04:20.165
Your anointing is not flowing how it used to be.

00:04:20.411 --> 00:04:26.111
Because there's some hidden sabotage going on, right? There's some things God needs to redirect.

00:04:26.471 --> 00:04:31.031
So let's look at some biblical examples of some Bible characters that God had

00:04:31.031 --> 00:04:32.791
to separate from people.

00:04:33.071 --> 00:04:37.431
The first one we know, we should know, is Abraham, found in Genesis 12.

00:04:37.771 --> 00:04:42.171
He told Abraham to get out from your kindred. And Abraham said,

00:04:42.311 --> 00:04:45.171
okay, I'll do that. But first I got to bury my dad.

00:04:45.391 --> 00:04:48.691
And then guess who tags along with him? We know the story of Lot.

00:04:48.691 --> 00:04:52.931
So I wonder if he would have left Lot alone, that Abraham would have got to

00:04:52.931 --> 00:04:54.451
his destination a lot quicker.

00:04:54.671 --> 00:04:58.331
But remember, God elevates when he separates.

00:04:58.691 --> 00:05:05.271
So whenever you read about Abraham, you'll find out that God didn't reveal everything

00:05:05.271 --> 00:05:11.131
that Abraham was going to get because he was obedient, but not fully obedient

00:05:11.131 --> 00:05:13.151
because he did take Lot with him.

00:05:13.391 --> 00:05:17.311
And Lot caused a lot of drama in that relationship. I don't think intentional.

00:05:17.511 --> 00:05:18.931
It was just he was not supposed to go.

00:05:19.351 --> 00:05:24.771
And then once Lot and Abraham separated, God and Abraham had a one-on-one where

00:05:24.771 --> 00:05:28.231
God said, look to the sky, look to the sand.

00:05:28.591 --> 00:05:34.631
This is going to be your future. But he could not reveal the whole story to

00:05:34.631 --> 00:05:38.611
Abraham when Lot was around. And I don't think Lot would ever love, right?

00:05:39.091 --> 00:05:45.851
So read that story. So he separates so He could elevate. He didn't elevate Abraham to the fullest until...

00:05:46.689 --> 00:05:53.469
He separated from Lot. Let's look at the story of Joseph found in Genesis chapter 37 through 41.

00:05:53.709 --> 00:05:58.309
That is a beautiful, beautiful story of God's redemption process,

00:05:58.309 --> 00:06:05.709
but it also showed that, you know, Joseph, he was a dreamer and he was his father's favorite.

00:06:06.009 --> 00:06:09.149
His brothers didn't like him, so they sold him into slavery.

00:06:09.389 --> 00:06:16.769
But Joseph grew up, he was in slavery, he was a slave, Then he was put in prison for some things.

00:06:16.969 --> 00:06:22.689
And then he rose out of prison to become the second in charge of the kingdom

00:06:22.689 --> 00:06:24.829
because God did give him dreams.

00:06:24.949 --> 00:06:28.869
But he exposed his dreams too early to his family.

00:06:29.109 --> 00:06:32.429
His family was the one that sold him into slavery.

00:06:32.729 --> 00:06:37.169
Come on now, we can be with some families. So what looks like rejection was

00:06:37.169 --> 00:06:40.709
divine positioning, but it took a long time.

00:06:40.989 --> 00:06:43.029
He was sold into slavery when he was a child.

00:06:43.529 --> 00:06:49.069
And he didn't really come into the kingdom until he was an adult. So that's a long time.

00:06:50.173 --> 00:06:54.513
Right? But God had to separate it. But at the end, when they went through that

00:06:54.513 --> 00:06:59.733
famine and there was only place they can get food was where Joseph was a ruler

00:06:59.733 --> 00:07:01.853
and his family came looking for food.

00:07:01.993 --> 00:07:05.793
They couldn't even recognize Joseph, but Joseph recognized his brothers.

00:07:06.133 --> 00:07:11.653
And then he forgave his brothers because he realized it was a God earned a moment

00:07:11.653 --> 00:07:17.193
that he would separate it from his brother because that's how they were able to survive the famine.

00:07:17.413 --> 00:07:21.613
So sometimes these divine separations look terrible, especially if you have

00:07:21.613 --> 00:07:24.733
a relative that moved far, far from the family.

00:07:24.993 --> 00:07:30.253
And then people don't talk to him or her because they decided to move.

00:07:30.473 --> 00:07:35.813
How do you know if that wasn't God separating them? And I bet they're probably doing very well.

00:07:35.953 --> 00:07:40.873
My kids are doing very well when they moved from a familiar place into an uncomfort

00:07:40.873 --> 00:07:46.613
zone where they had to learn everything new and they are striving and they are very, very blessed.

00:07:46.873 --> 00:07:50.253
So what looks like rejection was divine positioning.

00:07:50.553 --> 00:07:55.393
We see here, we talked about Moses in the last episode. Moses called away to

00:07:55.393 --> 00:07:57.273
the wilderness, Exodus 3.

00:07:57.693 --> 00:08:01.733
God gave him, Moses killed someone, right? He killed someone.

00:08:01.953 --> 00:08:06.893
He killed an Egyptian and he was called into the wilderness and he was young.

00:08:07.173 --> 00:08:11.273
And soon as he was 80 years old, God spoke to him from a bush.

00:08:11.413 --> 00:08:14.893
He separated them, taught him some things in the wilderness.

00:08:15.373 --> 00:08:18.513
It seemed to be a theme in the Bible. And then when God thought that he was

00:08:18.513 --> 00:08:23.073
ready, when God knew he was ready, he spoke to him and gave him another assignment.

00:08:23.793 --> 00:08:26.713
I retired back at work.

00:08:26.873 --> 00:08:29.833
People think that their whole goal is I'm going to retire and I'm going to go

00:08:29.833 --> 00:08:32.133
do A, B, C, D, E, F, G, all the way to Z.

00:08:32.353 --> 00:08:36.753
But you don't realize that when you retire, if you're still healthy,

00:08:36.753 --> 00:08:40.013
like I was, I wasn't elderly. I retired at 51.

00:08:40.253 --> 00:08:43.573
So I was still in pretty good shape and still is pretty good shape now.

00:08:44.053 --> 00:08:48.433
And I'm staying in shape because I know that God's going to want to do something

00:08:48.433 --> 00:08:51.293
with me and I want to be ready, healthy.

00:08:52.028 --> 00:08:57.788
In my body, in my heart, in my soul to do whatever God has me, what he wants me to do.

00:08:57.928 --> 00:09:00.368
Just like Moses was. Moses was in the wilderness.

00:09:00.568 --> 00:09:06.448
Even though he was 80, he was just still ready to do what God called him to do.

00:09:06.948 --> 00:09:10.588
Not understanding everything, but understanding everything.

00:09:10.948 --> 00:09:15.148
You know, it's interesting. Let's go to Gideon. We talked about him in the last

00:09:15.148 --> 00:09:20.928
episode, But part of his story in Judges 7 was that Gideon was called to war,

00:09:20.948 --> 00:09:24.028
but he had 32,000 men. That was a lot.

00:09:24.208 --> 00:09:27.528
So if he would have won that war, then he would have said, you know,

00:09:27.608 --> 00:09:30.028
I want it. You know how you get the big head? Because he had the numbers.

00:09:30.228 --> 00:09:33.708
But God had him reduce that number down to 300.

00:09:34.728 --> 00:09:40.188
Only the ones who slept with their hands and their eyes up was the one that stayed.

00:09:40.288 --> 00:09:44.588
He let the ones that were afraid to go. and he had another, anybody that don't

00:09:44.588 --> 00:09:47.808
feel like fighting a war to go, he just thinned out that crop.

00:09:48.128 --> 00:09:52.608
Sometimes that number, we don't think a number is that magic,

00:09:53.540 --> 00:09:57.720
that tells us that we're successful, that we're protected. But when Gideon,

00:09:57.920 --> 00:10:04.400
God had Gideon to thin down his army, he realized he only had 300 that was really ready for war.

00:10:04.580 --> 00:10:07.860
All the other ones would have died in war and they would have lost,

00:10:07.880 --> 00:10:13.980
but he just kept the 300 and God gave him a strategy to win against the enemy.

00:10:14.140 --> 00:10:18.240
So God will remove quantity to protect quality.

00:10:18.720 --> 00:10:21.620
We see David hidden from Saul's court.

00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:28.140
You know, David was running from Saul because Saul was after him because of

00:10:28.140 --> 00:10:31.760
the anointing that was on David, but God kept them.

00:10:31.880 --> 00:10:37.000
The fight, he was chasing them, but it's interesting, they were never too far off.

00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:40.000
They were always within the distance of each other, right?

00:10:40.200 --> 00:10:46.460
If you read the story of 1 Samuel 22, you'll see that even though Saul was after David.

00:10:46.680 --> 00:10:51.980
David was always just a few steps away from Saul. It wasn't like he was three

00:10:51.980 --> 00:10:53.800
days out. It was a long fight.

00:10:54.080 --> 00:10:58.460
I heard that study shows that it was like 13 years Saul was chasing him,

00:10:58.500 --> 00:11:02.180
but there was always time when David could have killed him and ended it.

00:11:02.440 --> 00:11:07.380
But he said he would not kill God's anointed. So he wasn't that type of guy.

00:11:07.800 --> 00:11:15.280
And so separation, the distance, this fight that he had with Saul produced character in David.

00:11:15.660 --> 00:11:21.720
So sometimes our enemies will produce character in us, character that God needs

00:11:21.720 --> 00:11:25.400
for that next calling, for that next assignment.

00:11:25.620 --> 00:11:29.640
And we see here, Jesus went up to the mountain alone, Matthew 14.

00:11:29.980 --> 00:11:31.800
Separation strengthened his assignment.

00:11:32.240 --> 00:11:35.860
Jesus was always alone. He went away to pray.

00:11:36.040 --> 00:11:41.200
Even when he took his crew to the garden of Gethsemane, he told them to stay

00:11:41.200 --> 00:11:45.480
there while he went in closer to pray. You see, so sometimes.

00:11:46.239 --> 00:11:52.879
Especially I live alone. So at the time you go like, wait a minute, I'm always alone.

00:11:53.019 --> 00:11:55.679
But Jesus was always separate.

00:11:56.059 --> 00:12:00.179
He used that time to get close to God. And then when he showed back up on the

00:12:00.179 --> 00:12:04.859
scene, he was doing signs, wonders, and miracles and casting out devils and

00:12:04.859 --> 00:12:06.039
training the disciples.

00:12:06.639 --> 00:12:12.279
He was teaching and preaching and training all the time. So he had to steal

00:12:12.279 --> 00:12:17.399
away, even to determine who would be his disciples, who would even go up to

00:12:17.399 --> 00:12:21.579
the mountain of transfiguration with him. That all was birthed out of prayer.

00:12:21.779 --> 00:12:27.499
So every biblical elevation is preceded by divine separation.

00:12:27.879 --> 00:12:35.179
Why God is separating you before 2026 or during 2026? What is God doing? Why is he doing that?

00:12:35.479 --> 00:12:39.179
Number one, he's doing that because he wants to protect your next level.

00:12:39.379 --> 00:12:42.199
Not everyone can handle your elevation.

00:12:42.419 --> 00:12:47.499
So he has to separate you so that you heard the crab story where the crabs will

00:12:47.499 --> 00:12:49.599
always pull the other crab down who's trying to escape.

00:12:49.819 --> 00:12:53.139
And so when someone feels that you're trying to get higher than them or elevate

00:12:53.139 --> 00:12:56.639
them or God's moving in their life, they always find a way to keep up a little

00:12:56.639 --> 00:13:00.239
drama trauma so that you won't focus on your elevation.

00:13:00.439 --> 00:13:03.159
So not everyone's going to be able to handle your promotion.

00:13:03.319 --> 00:13:04.579
Purify your atmosphere.

00:13:04.799 --> 00:13:07.619
Glory cannot fall where contamination lives.

00:13:07.939 --> 00:13:11.639
So sometimes we think our best friends are the most holiest and we'll find out

00:13:11.639 --> 00:13:16.559
this year in 2026 that they're not and that God wants you to move away.

00:13:16.699 --> 00:13:21.999
It's interesting because I have friends that I met and there was a reason why.

00:13:22.419 --> 00:13:26.659
Like I said, they want to be, you'll say this, I really mind being their best friend.

00:13:26.959 --> 00:13:29.599
They're not asking you to be their best friend, but you're saying,

00:13:29.779 --> 00:13:31.519
I think I can be best friends with them.

00:13:31.619 --> 00:13:35.699
But for some reason, that relationship doesn't go off.

00:13:35.859 --> 00:13:40.139
And so I asked God, I said, Lord, what is going on? How come this person doesn't

00:13:40.139 --> 00:13:41.299
want to be my best friend?

00:13:41.829 --> 00:13:46.429
And I pulled back and then he started to show me some things that they just,

00:13:46.589 --> 00:13:48.309
you just like nothing negative.

00:13:48.669 --> 00:13:53.789
It was just not, it was a maturity level, you know, and some people like to be seen.

00:13:53.949 --> 00:13:57.769
And so I'm not a person that likes to be seen. So people want to be seen.

00:13:58.189 --> 00:14:00.549
So if you're doing something great, they want to hang with you.

00:14:00.669 --> 00:14:04.409
But if you're not, they're into that connection and network stuff.

00:14:04.609 --> 00:14:07.929
So God will show you that he will purify your atmosphere.

00:14:08.229 --> 00:14:13.469
So don't try to grab people and bring them in this year. Let God pull him in for you, okay?

00:14:13.989 --> 00:14:18.789
And to mature your discernment, he removes noises so you can discern his voice.

00:14:18.969 --> 00:14:22.209
So even when it seems like you're feeling like you're by yourself,

00:14:22.369 --> 00:14:25.709
you're all alone, God is saying, I need you to hear my voice in this season.

00:14:25.889 --> 00:14:28.069
So take time to learn what he sounds like.

00:14:28.721 --> 00:14:32.021
Expose hidden motives. Sometimes people, like I just explained,

00:14:32.081 --> 00:14:34.541
people around you and you don't know their true heart.

00:14:34.761 --> 00:14:38.521
You have a true and pure heart for them, but they might not have a true and

00:14:38.521 --> 00:14:41.221
pure heart for why they're wanting to be around you.

00:14:41.401 --> 00:14:46.041
To break cycles, some cycles in only when God cuts people loose.

00:14:46.261 --> 00:14:50.281
Many times I remember being in a kind of, it was years over,

00:14:50.561 --> 00:14:54.901
maybe 20 years now, in a bad relationship, doing Christianity and everything.

00:14:55.121 --> 00:14:59.201
And I saw that the guy I was with He said, every time you leave,

00:14:59.341 --> 00:15:01.781
something bumps into me. And I was like, oops.

00:15:02.021 --> 00:15:06.761
So by that time, the person couldn't even stay at the house when I wasn't there. Why?

00:15:07.421 --> 00:15:12.101
Because God was doing something in me and he was interrupting it.

00:15:12.241 --> 00:15:18.541
And so whatever the angels were doing when I wasn't there scared that person out of my life.

00:15:18.761 --> 00:15:22.341
Isn't that what you want? No drama, no fighting, just scare them.

00:15:22.501 --> 00:15:25.641
I don't know what's going on with you. And then they want to start a fight because

00:15:25.641 --> 00:15:29.541
God is like, he's making sure that this person don't belong there.

00:15:29.701 --> 00:15:33.341
And if you can't do it in your own strength, just begin to pray in the spirit.

00:15:33.501 --> 00:15:35.181
I was going to church at 6 a.m.

00:15:35.421 --> 00:15:37.981
To 7 a.m. And then coming home and changing and going to work.

00:15:38.141 --> 00:15:41.061
And the guy was like, whoa, whoa. And you know, you're not going to have a guy

00:15:41.061 --> 00:15:42.981
living with you anyway. So that was already wrong.

00:15:43.321 --> 00:15:46.621
But I didn't have to get rid of him, take that much to get rid of him.

00:15:46.721 --> 00:15:48.121
I just stay focused on God.

00:15:48.261 --> 00:15:52.341
Because he'll tell you when that relationship is up. And then God would move

00:15:52.341 --> 00:15:56.481
in his angelic angels and bump that person out of your life.

00:15:56.581 --> 00:16:01.561
And they think it's, they're spooked because they're messing with your anointed.

00:16:01.741 --> 00:16:05.881
Come on, you're special in God's eye. And when God says enough is enough,

00:16:06.081 --> 00:16:10.001
then he's going to move people out of the way and he might not even need your help.

00:16:10.321 --> 00:16:14.861
He's going to reposition you. You are being moved closer to divine assignment.

00:16:15.321 --> 00:16:18.481
God is getting you closer to what you're called to do.

00:16:18.601 --> 00:16:21.941
I like that because we think we're doing it. Remember, we're working to survive.

00:16:22.101 --> 00:16:23.801
Nobody wants to keep working to survive.

00:16:24.081 --> 00:16:28.041
I want to be in God's presence. I want the John 10, 10 life.

00:16:28.141 --> 00:16:31.221
I want the Ephesians 3, 20 life. I want that life.

00:16:31.601 --> 00:16:35.761
And then he's going to prepare you for his glory. And the way he does that is

00:16:35.761 --> 00:16:37.501
he demands consecration.

00:16:37.661 --> 00:16:43.761
Each person that saw God's glory, they were in a time of consecration. They were set apart.

00:16:43.941 --> 00:16:49.021
They were waiting. You are being separated unto God at isolation.

00:16:49.041 --> 00:16:53.181
So don't feel that God is isolating you, especially if you're single and you're

00:16:53.181 --> 00:16:55.461
like, dang, I don't want to be alone again.

00:16:55.661 --> 00:16:58.621
But he says, come on, just do it this time.

00:16:58.901 --> 00:17:03.601
Come on, do it this time because he's doing something new this year.

00:17:03.761 --> 00:17:07.381
And so why is God separating you? To protect you.

00:17:07.899 --> 00:17:13.119
To protect your next level, to purify your atmosphere, to mature your discernment,

00:17:13.279 --> 00:17:17.619
to expose hidden motives, to break cycles, to reposition you,

00:17:17.779 --> 00:17:21.839
and to prepare you for his glory.

00:17:21.939 --> 00:17:26.959
Why is God removing certain things from your life in this season?

00:17:27.099 --> 00:17:34.159
Because people who drain your oil, They want your wisdom, but reject your boundaries.

00:17:34.299 --> 00:17:35.299
We discussed that earlier.

00:17:35.539 --> 00:17:41.579
People who resent your growth. They love you broken, but not arising.

00:17:41.919 --> 00:17:43.719
People can't handle accountability.

00:17:44.159 --> 00:17:50.139
Your maturity convicts them. People who manipulate through guilt, their season is over.

00:17:50.399 --> 00:17:54.619
People attracted to your old destiny. They cannot see the new you.

00:17:55.039 --> 00:18:00.719
People Satan you subtly, not enemies, but distractions. and people who resist

00:18:00.719 --> 00:18:03.619
the call of God on your life. They're not bad.

00:18:03.859 --> 00:18:08.739
They're just not assigned to you. And so who is God removing from your life

00:18:08.739 --> 00:18:11.299
in this season? So you can brace for impact.

00:18:11.459 --> 00:18:14.999
People who drain your oil. People who resent your growth.

00:18:15.239 --> 00:18:17.179
People who can't handle your accountability.

00:18:17.739 --> 00:18:22.699
People who manipulate you through guilt. People attached to your old identity.

00:18:23.059 --> 00:18:29.899
People Satan use subtly as distraction. and people who resist the call of God on your life?

00:18:30.059 --> 00:18:33.579
How do you know that this is happening? A sudden distance.

00:18:34.168 --> 00:18:38.068
They don't call you anymore. They don't invite you to the reindeer games,

00:18:38.168 --> 00:18:41.888
right? A loss of interest. You're no longer interested in the same thing.

00:18:42.368 --> 00:18:45.868
Conversations feel forced. Misalignment becomes obvious.

00:18:46.368 --> 00:18:52.928
People leave when they come. You feel drained after interacting.

00:18:53.908 --> 00:18:57.808
Their presence distract your spirit. You're no longer comfortable.

00:18:58.128 --> 00:19:03.628
Doors close without warning. These are not coincidences. They are heavenly signals.

00:19:04.168 --> 00:19:06.988
What is God separating you to, onto?

00:19:07.308 --> 00:19:11.228
Separating you onto purpose. How many of us just ready to be in our purpose?

00:19:11.508 --> 00:19:15.128
Your assignment that he's taking you to requires you to be focused.

00:19:15.548 --> 00:19:17.408
He's separating you into holiness.

00:19:18.268 --> 00:19:23.748
Consecration increase and increases clarity. He's separating you onto spiritual maturity.

00:19:24.188 --> 00:19:29.028
God is strengthening your discernment. He's separating you onto destiny.

00:19:29.408 --> 00:19:32.168
Your next season demands stronger character.

00:19:32.688 --> 00:19:37.268
Separating you unto heavenly alignment, you are walking in divine timing.

00:19:37.628 --> 00:19:39.948
He's separating you unto divine relationship.

00:19:40.348 --> 00:19:45.528
God is preparing your covenant circle. He's separating you unto glory.

00:19:45.868 --> 00:19:51.868
5, 7, 8, 6 is not a small year. It is going to be a glorious year.

00:19:51.868 --> 00:19:55.788
When you have all this separation, what can you expect?

00:19:56.048 --> 00:19:59.848
You can expect the blessings that follow divine separation.

00:20:00.448 --> 00:20:05.188
We knew Abraham was made wealthy. Job had to separate from his friends,

00:20:05.348 --> 00:20:07.228
but he prayed for them. He got double.

00:20:07.708 --> 00:20:13.948
You see, Joseph was sold into slavery, but he became the second richest man in the nation.

00:20:14.188 --> 00:20:19.248
So what he does when he separates us, which might be a little painful at first,

00:20:19.428 --> 00:20:22.448
but we can understand that we will have clearer vision.

00:20:22.628 --> 00:20:24.788
I mean, if you have left relationships together,

00:20:25.427 --> 00:20:29.887
female or male relationship, just friendships, and then you were able to see

00:20:29.887 --> 00:20:32.687
and hear God clearly. You even have more time to pray.

00:20:33.027 --> 00:20:37.347
Stronger identity. You're walking with your head up high because you know who you are.

00:20:37.587 --> 00:20:41.947
Greater peace. Nothing moves you. Nothing shakes you because you know that that

00:20:41.947 --> 00:20:44.347
peace of God lives on the inside of you.

00:20:45.007 --> 00:20:48.787
Accelerated growth. Suddenly, you're moving through at a faster rate.

00:20:49.147 --> 00:20:52.927
What used to take years now only takes months. Increase favor,

00:20:53.087 --> 00:20:57.187
people like you, new opportunities, supernatural alignments,

00:20:57.567 --> 00:21:03.027
new tribe connections, emotional healing, and greater spiritual authority.

00:21:03.347 --> 00:21:06.547
Separation is a doorway to elevation.

00:21:07.067 --> 00:21:10.347
Let's go with our prophetic decree. Speak this with me.

00:21:10.687 --> 00:21:14.807
Father, separate me from every relationship, habit, environment,

00:21:14.827 --> 00:21:17.207
or influence that hinders my destiny.

00:21:17.467 --> 00:21:22.187
Cut it, close it, remove it, and redirect me. Align me with your purpose and

00:21:22.187 --> 00:21:24.667
connect me only to what strengthens my calling.

00:21:24.867 --> 00:21:31.547
I accept divine separation and step into divine elevation. In Jesus' name, amen.

00:21:31.987 --> 00:21:35.927
Let's pray. Lord, thank you for separating me unto your glory.

00:21:36.247 --> 00:21:39.547
Remove what cannot follow me. Cut off what distracts me.

00:21:39.947 --> 00:21:43.747
Protect me from misalignments. Lead me into divine connections.

00:21:44.007 --> 00:21:47.807
Prepare my heart for the shaking and the glory of 2026.

00:21:48.127 --> 00:21:52.487
Let separation become my protection. That separation become our preparation.

00:21:52.727 --> 00:21:55.107
In Jesus' name I pray, amen.

00:21:55.507 --> 00:21:59.547

It's titled The Great Crossing.

00:22:06.947 --> 00:22:10.627
Stepping into the new season God has prepared.

00:22:11.027 --> 00:22:14.827
So get ready, get ready, and I'll see you on the next episode.

00:22:26.003 --> 00:22:30.283
Family, thank you for spending this time with me today. To every woman listening

who has ever felt hidden, overlooked, or pushed aside, I want you to hear me clearly.

00:22:36.363 --> 00:22:39.263
God has not forgotten you and neither have I.

00:22:39.463 --> 00:22:44.703

No pressure, just love and community. Before we leave, I wanna speak the word

00:23:11.603 --> 00:23:14.603
that I close with every time because somebody needs this reminder today.

00:23:14.763 --> 00:23:17.543
It comes from Jeremiah 29, 11, 14.

00:23:18.023 --> 00:23:22.203
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you

00:23:22.203 --> 00:23:26.163
and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future, then you will call

00:23:26.163 --> 00:23:29.663
upon me and come and pray to me and I will listen to you.

00:23:29.843 --> 00:23:33.523
You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

00:23:33.683 --> 00:23:37.123
I will be found by you, declares the Lord.

00:23:37.543 --> 00:23:42.043
Beloved, God has a plan for your life, a real one, a good one.

00:23:42.243 --> 00:23:48.023
And as long as you keep seeking him, you will find him even from the hidden places. I love you.

00:23:48.143 --> 00:23:50.643
I'm praying for you and I'll meet you next time.
