Called Higher in the Middle of the Fire
December felt like everything was finally aligning.
I had settled into a new place.
I started making my porch signs.
I became consistent in content creation.
I started going live.
Im diving deep into core mentorship program
I committed to my health—smoothies, rebounding, and preparing for a parasite cleanse.
At the same time, I was trying to continue building my business, show up online, and faithfully walk through Faith Filled Foundations—doing the inner work, identity work, and assignments even when my life behind the scenes was anything but stable.
I also started a new serving job where I’m making 5x the money in far fewer hours.
Praise God. 🙌
Then I took a huge step forward and joined Life on Fire to become a bestselling author and finally get the guidance and coaching specifically for my book.
Around the same time, I started going back to doctors for testing—and that’s when something deeper surfaced. Between medical appointments, the holidays, and FaceTiming my son while my abuser was sitting next to him, it became painfully clear how much stored trauma was still living in my body. My nervous system was wrecked.
I had a huge wake-up call:
How can I continue to pour into others while neglecting myself?
That realization forced me to slow down and get serious about inner healing—even while still trying to build, create, and remain consistent in business.
On December 26th—my birthday—I officially became a Bible college student. I chose to attend CORE College, starting with the deliverance and inner healing track, and committed to going at my own pace instead of rushing or trying to catch up.
I also gifted myself a 1:1 counseling session to go even deeper in my healing journey.
Then the Lord told me something very clear:
I could no longer stay silent.
As I finally conquered the roaches (or so I thought), the Lord revealed something else—I could not continue settling for seven minutes of hot water in my home. He called me to set real boundaries, something I had been learning and practicing deeply through Faith Filled Foundations and the identity work God was doing in me.
During this time, while my door was open, my landlord walked into my home without notice while I was getting dressed—right in the middle of a deliverance session where I was processing a lifetime of trauma connected to my mother. I was emotionally undone. Truly a mess.
But God showed me something powerful in that moment:
The enemy brings distractions when you are close to breakthrough.
He revealed that:
- Boundaries are biblical
- Many of us settle for unhealthy conditions just to “keep the peace”
- And God said clearly: “Not in this season.”
I continued addressing the hot water issue—faithfully, kindly, and respectfully—while still trying to keep up with assignments, business responsibilities, and showing up online. I even sent a photo of myself boiling water just to take a warm shower in a portable tub.
And then…
January 3rd—the very next day—I received a notice to vacate by January 30th.
This landlord was someone I considered family. I attended Bible studies in their home. I am still devastated. God showed me clearly how moments like this are exactly why churches are empty and why so many people don’t trust Christians.
You cannot claim Christ while illegally evicting someone for requesting basic living conditions—hot water and proper notice before entering their home.
For a moment, that victim mentality tried to creep in.
How could they do this knowing my health, my history, my escape from abuse?
But God immediately corrected me:
We are no longer fighting from victimhood—we fight from victory.
As I stood there taking another seven-minute shower that turned cold, the Lord spoke so clearly:
“Daughter, I am calling you higher. Trust Me.
You are not meant to settle for these living conditions.
You are a daughter of the King.”
Something ignited in my spirit that night.
A different kind of fire. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
When you truly know who you are and whose you are—everything changes.
There is such a deep peace and confidence knowing that God has a bigger, better place prepared for me.
I know this is a testimony in the making. I’ve felt fear about sharing because this landlord is on my social media. I’m praying for wisdom to stay obedient to God—because He made it clear I must share—while also protecting myself until I’m safely out.
In this season, I’m stepping back to let God realign me and teach me order—in my life, my healing, and my business.
I have test results rolling in that is trying to place so much fear on me, and I’m choosing to stand on Gods word!
Brityn, I am so thankful for this program and this group. Some days I can’t even fathom how God has carried me through all of this while navigating chronic illness and continuing to build in faith in this crazy journey!
Ladies, we cannot continue to stay silent or hide our gifts to make others comfortable.
God did not call us to shrink—He called us to speak, create, inspire, and build.
There is so much revelation in realizing how many Christians are not leveraging their gifts or their voice.
May this encourage you to keep going no matter what the enemy is doing to try to stop you!
This is my throne room season, I am getting into the secret place like never before and truly allowing the Holy Spirit to heal me from the inside out!
It’s time to hold space for the Holy Spirit before I can hold space for anyone else!
