My Journey With God, No. 1

Shaun Bradford

This time I waited to post!

I had another message scheduled to post just in case I didn’t hear to share a different message at my scheduled posting time. I always try to wait before sharing because I often hear to share a specific message right before it’s time for me to post. Smile. The majority of my messages aren’t just random; they’re God-given. Well, I now realize I don’t have to choose between messages unless I hear not to post the one that I’ve scheduled. I can actually share both.

Today, I’m giving myself permission to share more than one message during my scheduled timeframes. I don’t have to wait and share them hours apart. For some reason, I really dislike sharing back-to-back posts. It’s definitely a barrier I need to overcome.

Anyhoo…

Some people would rather do a video or make a social media post; I’d rather blog.

**For Transparency: I later updated this first section to include more details. My initial post was very vague. When I write, I often assume the reader has already read my previous post before moving on to the next—somewhat like reading a continuous story. Will do better in the future.😘 – Shaun (10.24.2025)

The song of the moment is “Restoration” by The Winans. No lie, I heard it minutes before my other post was scheduled to publish (going to publish both).

The song says—

“Restoration has finally come. Been restored back to my place in God.”

Y’all, I am so grateful for God’s love, mercy, patience, and grace.

The song ends with—

“I’m restored. I’m glad about it. I’ve been renewed. And I’m glad about it.”

Wishing you peace and blessings. Remember to always put God first and trust His guidance, even when you can’t see where He’s taking you. Just trust and believe it’s somewhere greater and better than you’ve ever imagined.♥️

My Journey With God

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning!☀️

“My Journey With God” is the title I have decided on for one of my extra posts for the day. I may or may not post one daily, but when I do, it will be authentic, not forced.

Trust.

Trust God.

Trust His plan.

That’s the message! Have a wonderfully blessed day.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Speak Life

Shaun Bradford

I keep hearing, “Speak Life.” Not sure who needs this message but please make sure you’re speaking life over YOUR life and over everything and everyone connected to your life.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Also, be mindful of the words others speak in your space.

Adding Donald Lawrence’s song, “I Speak Life.”

Be You

Shaun Bradford

You were never created to fit in. Don’t tone down your presence to make others more comfortable. No… Stand in your fullest glory and be YOU!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

God Is Moving

Shaun Bradford

God is moving and moving in a mighty way. I can feel it in my soul and spirit, and it’s not superficial or emotional but purely spiritual. I know I can’t be the only one experiencing this.

Y’all, I am still hearing the songs, “Change Me” and “I Do Worship.” When I tell you my spirit is full, and the worship is running over. I haven’t experienced this level of worship before for more than an hour or so. So, this experience is very different. I really wish I could explain it in a way where you could also experience it. It’s like, while I’m going about my everyday life—working and all—the angels, my soul, and my spirit are having a good ole time worshiping God. I check in every now and then and do a little hand wave or say Hallelujah, but they are going at it! And I am here for it! Laughing

Listen, that’s all! I just wanted to give y’all an update. Smile. I hope your week has been just as excitingly different as mine.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

P.S. When you ask for different and you give God free rein, there’s no telling what He’ll do! And the best part is, your different will be completely tailored for you. Isn’t God good?!🥰

A Vessel of God

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning!☀️

When you decide to commit yourself to God, you become His vessel. Meaning, you don’t always know how or when He will use you. All you know is that you were created and chosen for His divine purpose. Knowing this, must be enough. Trust Him. He’s got you, He loves you, and He will never leave you.

Honored and blessed.

That’s all I have for now. Praying your day is just as amazing as you are!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Good Night (27)

Shaun Bradford

Tonight, I’ve decided to do something different—I’m going to bed earlier. My goal is to get more sleep. I’m aiming for at least five uninterrupted hours. My plan is to log off all social media by 10 pm and be asleep by 11 pm. My goal is do this at least three days a week. I’ll keep y’all posted on how it goes. This means I might need to rethink my posting times or post my Facebook memories later in the day. With this being said, I’m also considering posting more. Yayyyy! I kind of like the idea of sharing a mid-day post, and it does give me a break. So those worship sessions weren’t for nothing. I guess they were preparing me to do a little more. Smile.

I also posted another TikTok video this morning. This one was very short, less than 15 seconds. It was of butterflies flying around so carefree. I added the caption, “God’s got you.” Will share it below.

Anyhoo… I’m about to start shutting things down. Going to scroll down my timelines one last time, then log off. I pray you had a wonderful day and wishing you a peaceful night.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

God’s got you!

Another Worship Session

Shaun Bradford

Y’all, I don’t know what God is doing, or what’s happening, but something is taking place. My spirit and soul feels it. Unlike other times when this has happened, I don’t feel anxious or nervous, as if something bad is happening. I actually feel at peace.

Today’s worship song is John P. Kee’s, “I Do Worship.” If you read my earlier posts, you’ll know yesterday’s mid-afternoon worship session ended with this song. Now today’s session has picked up where it left off.

The song says—

I do worship, I do worship
I do worship You
I do worship, I do worship
I do worship You

For Your goodness and Your glory
For the joy inside Your story
I do worship You

Oh, how excellent is Your presence
We will bless Your name
For Your goodness and Your glory
For the joy inside Your story

For the peace You gave to me
For the day You set me, set me free

For Your goodness and Your glory
For the joy inside Your story

I do worship, I do worship
I do worship, I do worship
I do worship, I do worship
I do worship, I do worship
You

Always Keep God First

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning!☀️

That’s what I wrote in my journal on October 22, 2023. “Always keep God first.” Believe me, He will not lead you wrong.

Soooo…

Did anyone do anything different yesterday?

Well, I did! It wasn’t drastically different, but it was different.

Yesterday, I wrote about how I felt my spirit worshipping God while hearing Tamela Mann’s song, “Change Me,” repeatedly playing in my head. When I finally listened to it, I had it on repeat for well over an hour. Every time I went to stop playing it, I kept hearing, “One more time.” So I played it until another song popped into my head, which was John P. Kee’s “I Do Worship.” Y’all, my spirit was definitely in worship mode.

So, here’s where ‘different’ came in. After listening to my songs, I really felt the need to share what I was experiencing with the world. I had already written it here (see Mid-Afternoon Worship) but needed to get it out verbally without any interruptions. So, I made a short video and shared it on TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook. I also shared how I could feel a shift taking place. I’ve been feeling it for a while; however, now the feeling is becoming stronger. And it’s not a bad shift, but a good one.

When I tell you it must have been for me to share! Y’all, I had zero anxiety. None! That has never happened, before. Never! I know it may seem small to you, but it was huge for me.

So, that was my different.

Y’all, God is good. So good. There’s no way I could not keep Him first. As I said, I know it may not seem like a big deal, it was just a video. But it was big for me. What took me a few minutes to do yesterday, would have taken me hours to do before, and it was only a couple of minutes long.

Thank you for allowing me to share. I pray you have a beautifully blessed day.♥️

Love you always,

Shaun
