In this episode, we’re going to consider how God travels with us and how we can best travel in Him. The Kingdom of God has different vehicles for walking with the Lord in the course of life, such as scripture, dreams, promises, and prophecy. The Holy Spirit also has a set of vehicles to help us learn how to move in God, like trust, confidence, identity in Jesus, destiny, faith, and grace.
So we are exploring:
+ How your story (internal disposition) gets to ALWAYS be compatible with the PROMISE for your journey…
+ The difference between BAGGAGE and LUGGAGE when traveling with God…
+ How you can EXPERIENCE the journey now so you can see the next part your map…
+ An ACTIVATION to help you establish yourself in a deeper relationship with the Lord…
Key Truths…
+ All the characteristics in God that we need in order to travel with him on this Kingdom journey.
+ Baggage is made up of old wounds, past failures, problem focused mindsets, mistakes, humiliations and the negative emotions, memories, and disposition that lay heavy on us and produce habits.
+ Luggage is travelling with new lens, thoughts and language.
+ Instead of working on a negative we exchange it for something better in Jesus instead.
Key Scriptures…
+ Philippians 4:8-9: Whatever is true, honorable, right, pure, lovely or of good report is our starting place in Jesus for new thinking.
Activation…
Life ebbs and flows. What we do in the ebb is just as vital as what we do in the flow. All creation including us, have times of being fruitful and being pruned. The real evidence for ongoing fruitfulness is not in the branch but in the root.
I have chosen to practice the elements of root and fruit in my story and journey with God, and would love to see them apart of your journey with God. Root is about growing up into God’s image, where fruit is about measurable growth in success, provision, and life.
Here are some questions to dialogue with the Lord about in order to activate these elements as you travel with Him.
+ Do you need to establish yourself in a deeper relationship with the Lord?
+ Is there a negative aspect to your outlook on life or a personality upgrade that is overdue?
+ What problems need to become possibilities?
+ Where is God taking you next on your journey?
+ Is this about re-inventing your business, and ministry, or upgrading your job?
+ What is the real issue you are facing?
+ What do you need God to be for you now?
+ What do you get to choose to become or to do next?
+ Is there any specific promise that the Lord wants to release to you at this time?
+ What must change in you for you to embrace His promise fully?
Begin to thank God and rejoice in Him for His presence and kind intention. When His presence is bigger than your situation, what can you see, understand, realise about your story and journey changing? How has your identity upgraded to the new level of experience and activity?
Remember, a new chapter may be opening up in your storyline. New gifts, initiatives and possibilities will present themselves in Jesus.
Record all that you are learning and becoming and let us know what happens!

In this episode, we are looking at how every journey with God has a time when you walk off your map. It’s a place where we go beyond our current thinking and experiences into unknown territory. These are prime opportunities for God to write a chapter of faith and trust into our story with Him.
