Firm Ground, Forward Motion

Welp, you’ve made it through standing in the storm. You resisted the urge to shrink when growth showed up. And now—you’re here, on firm ground, finally catching your breath and seeing some progress.

This is exactly why you can’t stop now.

This last blog in the series isn’t about fighting for your stance anymore. It’s about learning how to build from it. Because once you start to see results—once your footing feels stable—it can be easy to relax a little too much. But as discussed in the previous post, shrinking back iso not the next step. It’s time to keep building and stay grounded.

In seasons of defeat, we’re just trying to stay afloat.
But when that season lifts—even just a little—and progress shows up, your purpose calls louder. The space you once used to pray for peace now becomes the space to start planning, doing, and becoming.

But here’s what’s wild:
The enemy doesn’t always come back swinging.
Sometimes he just whispers:

“You’ve done enough.”
“Take it easy.”
“You’re good right where you are.”

And sometimes…we listen.
Not because we’re lazy—but because breakthrough feels so good, we’re afraid to mess it up.
But this moment?
It’s not the end—it’s the launchpad.

So What Do You Do With This Moment?
How do you stay steady and keep building from this new place?

1. Take Root Before You Reach

Before you start stacking projects, ideas, or commitments—pause.
Ask yourself:

• What is God actually asking me to build right now?

• Am I rushing to add more out of pressure or purpose?

2. Make “Consistency” the Win—Not Speed

This isn’t the time to over-perform or prove something. It’s the time to establish rhythms that sustain you.

• Start small.

• Be consistent.

• Trust that slow, steady steps honor God just as much as leaps of faith.

3. Build with your words

Whether it’s your mindset, business, health, or spiritual walk—nurture it with your words.
Say it out loud:

“I’m capable.”
“God is with me.”
“This isn’t too much—I’m made for this.”

If you don’t speak life into what you’re growing, doubt will.

This isn’t just the end of a series. It’s the beginning of a new kind of movement.
You know now that seasons shift. You know that you can survive and thrive.
And now, you also know how to move with wisdom when the ground is firm beneath your feet.

You may have had a season of defeat.
But defeat is never the final word.
Now that you’re standing?
t’s time to build.

You got this! See you later this week on the vlog!

Much Love,
