When Jesus Is Your Stakeholder… Like, Ma’am. Sir. It’s Time. Baby, get up and go to church. God been too good… you go ‘cause He woke you up.

Listen… do you remember a time when God nudged you— and full-on tapped you like a Black mama at a parent-teacher conference—to get more serious about spreading the gospel? Or being more engaged in church?

Because let’s be honest: lately it feels like the entire Body of Christ got put on God’s “Let me talk to you real quick” list.

You scrolling, sipping, soft-lifing, minding your holy business… and then—boom.

Conviction.
Assignment.
Divine push notification.

“Everyone needs salvation, sweetheart.” —God,

The times we’re in? Whew. It’s giving urgent, it’s giving harvest season, it’s giving ‘stop playing and get in position.’ And be active in church...

And God is reminding His people:

“For ALL have sinned and come short of the glory of God.”
—Romans 3:23 (not 25, baby girl, but we gon’ keep it cute)

That means your cousin who “don’t do church.”
That coworker who’s spiritual...
Even you—yes you, Miss Prophetic Soft Life.

We all need Jesus.

But here’s the part that keeps me from falling out in the cereal aisle:

“The Lord is… LONGSUFFERING to us-ward, not willing that ANY should perish.”—2 Peter 3:9

Long suffering.
Not “a little patient.”
Not “give me a second.”

But LONGSUFFERING—meaning God been putting up with us like a wife who really loves her man but side-eyes his decisions sometimes.

God wants everybody to come to participate.
Not just the church girls.
Not just the sanctified saints.
Everybody.

And then John steps into Revelation like:

“Y’all… Jesus isn’t new to this. He’s TRUE to this.”

He called Him:

“The Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.”

Meaning Jesus had the assignment before Earth even loaded.
Before mountains.
Before oceans.
Before Adam had a rib to miss.

Jesus said, “I’ll go.”
He’s always been on go-mode to rescue us.

So why does God keep nudging YOU?

Because you’re called to carry something.
Because you’re anointed to reach people a typical preacher never will.
Because your personality—yes, the sass, the softness, the prophetic spice—is not an accident.

This is your reminder:
You don’t have to be perfect to be effective.
You just have to be willing.

Your Bible literally says:

“If you are willing and obedient,
you shall eat the good of the land.”
—Isaiah 1:19

If you stop fighting God and just do what He said… the blessings will start fighting FOR you.

Translation in Zoe-culture?

Because obedience isn’t just holy— it’s prophetic.

And if God is tugging your heart to speak up, evangelize, post that message, share that testimony, pray for that stranger, or launch that movement—
Please don’t “I’ll do it later” God.
