CHANGE; THE SCARY KIND - Elvira Jordan


CHANGE; THE SCARY KIND - Elvira Jordan 


Good Morning Beloved ✨


Merry Cherry Compliments of the season!

I hope we all enjoyed the holidays.

Now that the celebrations are done, it’s time for us to rearrange our focus and adjust our mind and body for the new year, the new month and the new week. 


In my own journey of refocusing, I have been pondering on a lot lately. You see, I recently took the bold step of relocating back to PH, leaving behind some things I wasn’t ready to let go of, carrying a bag of uncertainty and fear because my relocation was sudden and not at all how I had planned it to be.


Despite this heavy burden on me, I simply moved it from my head to my shoulders where it won’t bother me much, so I can concentrate on enjoying the festive season. However, as the new year began, reality began to dawn on me and a certain kind of fear gripped me. One that can easily drive a person into sadness.


Navigating through this ugly emotion, as it is in my nature, I examined all angles of my current predicament, dissected it, turned it around over and over, fried it in hot groundnut oil and ate it with dodo and fried egg (😂😂😂), I came to a realization that all I was seeing at the end of the year and the emotional rush of the new year was to prepare me and push me towards a much needed CHANGE that was staring at me in the face.


Like many of us, I have been praying for a change in and around me. Not being in my familiar environment and element, I had gradually sunk into a place that seemed stagnant for me without being consciously aware of this slow change. When I realized this, my inner man was hungry for something I didn’t even know.


Now the change has come… propelling me to readjust my position. The universe was like “you’re getting too comfortable here. You have to move…” and I was pushed to move. This sudden move was not comfortable with my mortal soft girl who just wants to eat, sleep and enjoy 🥱 hence the fear. 


When I realized the change I wanted was here, and it was here really fast, I had to move with its speed. Although it still scares me but I use the fear to “rob body” and make it a propeller for my speed.


Just like I have, many of us will be encountering certain changes as 2026 moves forward, whether we asked for it or not. 

Most of the time, the change that we need is neither pleasant nor comfortable. It will be like a pin in your chair, causing you to adjust and rearrange yourself in discomfort until you finally get up to change your seat or just start walking towards where you’re meant to be.


I want to encourage us all today to look out for that discomforting but necessary change and grab it when it arrives. 

It is moving us from where we are to where we need to be. It is calling in some real progress in our lives. It is taking us to our destination. It is driving us closer to our prayer points. It is moving us to a place where the spotlight will fall on us.


I want to officially welcome us to the first business week of the year 2026. 

May we succeed in all our plans and goals. 


BIBLE VERSE: Isaiah 43:19

See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.


PRAYER: Dear Lord, as we start our week, let everything our hand touches turn into gold. We will record multiple success this week. Amen. 



Do have a Blessed Monday and a Successful Week ahead.

TIME IS NOT IN A HURRY - Elvira Jordan

TIME IS NOT IN A HURRY - Elvira Jordan Good Morning Beloved! Have you ever been late for work or an event and you’re trying to meet up by doing everything in a hurry? You will see that as you’re trying to comb your hair in a hurry, the brush will fall off a couple of times for you to pick it up and continue. You may wear your jacket the wrong way and be forced to take it off and wear it again. All this will make you late the more. We must have experienced this one way or the other. Yesterday, I realized that we have just 4 months till the end of the year and I just shrugged it off because even though the year ran fast, “What Will Be Will Be”.  This realization may be triggering for some people, especially those who have grandeur plans for the year, lists of achievements, things they want to accomplish in 2025 and things like that. If you haven’t done what you think you need to do, the rush of the year may actually mess with your mind, making you feel like you’re being left behind....

DREAMS AND VISIONS ARE FREE - Elvira Jordan

DREAMS AND VISIONS ARE FREE - Elvira Jordan Good Morning Beloved 😊 A few days ago, I stumbled on a video where Apostle Femi Lazarus spoke about “Seeing” and it inspired my message today. Even as a child, I have always lived in a fantasy world and sometimes I feel like I take the fantasy thing too far because at some point, everything around me could be on fire and I will just create an alternate reality in my head where I am dancing in the snows. Everyone else could be worried or fearful about a dire situation and I will just picture  the best possible outcome of that situation and allow myself to remain there, while others bugger their minds off on how serious the matter is. Some people have always seen my view as “Toxic Positivity” and that has never been a problem to me. There are times when I would agree that I took the dreaming thing too far, but more often than not, it was the ideal thing for me because while others are worked up over the situation and worried sick about a p...
