This week, I am honored to be the guest post over at Lyli Dunbar’s Faith on Fire Linkup on Friday for her Pray Big Series. Here’s a sneak peak of my post. You can read the rest of the post just before midnight tonight (FEB 24 AT 11:59PM) by clicking here, or on the image below when you link up with her tomorrow. Enjoy!
“This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine….
Hide it under a bushel? NO! I’m gonna let it shine.
Don’t let Satan [blow] it out! I’m going to let it shine …”
As a young girl in Sunday school, I loved signing this song with all the hand motions, movements, and shouting. Yes, shouting! When it came time to sing about hiding it under a bushel, we would all scream NO!
Have you ever noticed young kids don’t experience fear like teens and adults? They have an ease of sharing their faith. They don’t seem to have fears or thoughts of: “What will they think about me if they find out I go to church? Or I believe in Jesus?”
Have you ever noticed kids are just plain bold in spreading the “Good News?”
As a child, I shared about Jesus with anyone who would listen. I invited my friends to church so they could hear about Him and have fun on Sunday like I was. I was never going to hide my light under a bushel. I was going to shine bright for all to see! I belted out that “NO!” so loud. I was proud of myself and never thought that would change, but it did.
Have you ever felt so in love with Jesus that you wanted to shout if from the roof tops? Only to later have life and circumstance cause the fire that once burned brightly to dwindle or fade?
I completely understand if you have. I have too.
As I look back on my life, I wish I had kept the same fervor and passion I had as a small child. There are seasons and times in my life that I wish, I could have a redo. Yet at the same time, I understand they are now part of the tapestry of who I am today. However, beloved, there is good news for us all. God isn’t looking for us to be perfect, He knows we have flaws and imperfections. There isn’t a person alive who doesn’t want to change something about their past. However, God is more concerned about our today and tomorrows. He wants to reignite and rekindle the fire within us so His light can shine through us for ALL to see. ….

Episode #148 Sitting with God
As I watched a newly released movie a few weeks ago there was a line a main character kept saying – it was his “catch phrase,” if you will, and it caught my attention. “If you sit in the question long enough the answer will come to you.” Sure enough, God started to speak to me about this one line from a movie. Yes, God can speak to us through the movies, if we will listen. He challenged me to really take time to sit with Him and go beyond just my quiet time and devotionals, but to press in to receive more.
God wants to speak to us. He wants to download plans, blueprints and build a real relationship with us. But if we never sit with Him, and I mean really sit in the stillness and quiet then how can He impart the deeper revelation? God is inviting you to sit with Him so you can receive more as well.

Have you had the opportunity to read my new book “The Gift of Prophetic Encouragement: Hearing the Words of God for others.” ? This book is about learning to hear the voice of God in our own life so we can respond to those God bumps and little nudges He gives us on a daily basis. God is calling us to be agents of encouragement and to be the gift the worlds needs today.
We live in a time, where those around us are in desperate need of a real encounter with Jesus and in need of encouragement. We are called to encourage one another daily (Hebrews 3:13), and to build each other up (1 Thessalonians 5:11). My book will teach you how to step out and do just that.
To order your copy today: You can find it at Barnes & Noble, Amazon, OR your favorite online retailer, Plus, newly added, you can now get a signed copy from me. Click Here to order yours today!
We all have the opportunity to #BeTheGift of encouragement others need today.
A practical guide to what it looks like and how to live a lifestyle of prophetic encouragement.
Are you Ready to #BeTheGift Someone Needs today?
Words have power.
To encourage. To comfort. To strengthen. To heal.
Especially when they come from God.
The Gift of Prophetic Encouragement Bible Study: Living a Lifestyle of Encouragement shows us how to follow Jesus by loving on and building up His church … one person, and one God-centered word, at a time. Diving deeply into Scripture, Pastor Debbie Kitterman beautifully unpacks the Biblical precedent of prophetic encouragement and teaches you how to hear from God. By doing so, you’ll bravely step into your calling to #BeTheGift others need.
In this stunning six-week study, you will:
- Examine the model of encouragement Jesus established for us.
Define the simple (and Biblical) concept of prophetic encouragement.
Learn to identify and test the voice of God in your life.
Explore activation exercises which strengthen your hearing muscles.
And gain confidence in your calling to build others up
Are you ready for six weeks that will change your life, deepen your relationship with God, and create ripples of encouragement that spread through those around you?

Do you wonder if God still speaks today? Do you wonder if He would ever speak to you personally? Do you long to hear the voice of God in your life?
Have your read other books on hearing from God, but long for hands on practical application? or are you looking for ways to move you forward hearing from God?
If you answered YES to any of those questions, then I have exactly what you need. I now have an online e-course designed to equip you in understanding that God still speaks today, and He longs to speak directly to you, through His word, and others. He longs to encourage you, strengthen you and comfort you. The training on this site, is fully based on Scripture, and taken from my training manual Releasing God’s heart through Hearing His Voice.
God is speaking, Can you Hear Him?
d2htrainging.com membership site is open, I invite you to check it out today, and develop a deeper relationship with the Lord, as you learn to hear Him speak to your heart.

I remember singing that song MULTIPLE times both as a child and then for years as a Sunday school teacher. 🙂
I think this is why Jesus said unless you have the faith of a child you shall not enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Their measure of faith is overwhelming. I have seen that child like faith in my six year old granddaughter who brings her friends to S.S. and Youth group with her. It makes my heart glad. Oh that we would tap into that level of faith, that level of exuberant praise.
Heading over there now!
I will go take a look. Thanks for sharing this.
