Shake It Off: Breaking Free from Emotional and Spiritual Heaviness

 

December 12

What’s up wonderful, amazing, sweet, and lovely people? How are you doing today? I pray your day is already filled with light—and if it’s not, it’s about to be. Welcome to Maryam’s Joyful Life. It truly is a beautiful day, and today’s post is coming straight from a place of inspiration and faith.

We all go through moments where something feels heavy—so heavy that it affects everything we do. Maybe it’s emotional. Maybe it’s spiritual. Maybe it’s something you can’t even put into words, but you can feel it in every step you take. That heaviness tries to steal your joy, drain your energy, and dim your light.

But here’s the truth: you have the power to shake it off.

What’s Weighing You Down?

Ask yourself honestly—what is it that’s sitting on your heart right now?

What has you so weighed down that enjoying your life feels hard?

The longer you sit in it…

The longer you marinate in it…

The longer you roll in it, sleep with it, and accept it…

…the stronger it appears to become.

But heaviness loses its grip the moment you rise up and speak against it.

You Have Authority Over That Heaviness

When you begin to speak life over yourself—when you command that heaviness to leave—you shift the atmosphere around you.

Say it with boldness:

“I don’t want you. Lose your hold over me in the name of Jesus. I break your power off of me.”

This isn’t just positive thinking. This is spiritual authority. This is faith in action.

As someone who has faced that same heaviness before, I want to stand in agreement with you today. In the mighty name of Jesus, anything trying to keep you bound—emotionally, mentally, spiritually—is broken now.

Rise Up & Do What Needs To Be Done

Sometimes the first step to shaking things off is simply getting up.

Get up.

Move your body.

Change your environment.

Stir yourself back into life.

Clean your house.

Wash your clothes.

Take a shower.

Step outside and breathe in fresh air.

Walk in nature.

Do something that signals to your spirit, “I’m alive and I’m in charge.”

Every small action is a declaration of freedom.

You Are Not The Tail—You Are The Head

The power of God in you is stronger than anything trying to weigh you down.

You are chosen.

You are equipped.

You are powerful.

And this—right now—is your moment.

No darkness has the right to rule your life.

No stronghold has the authority to keep you stuck.

No attack has the ability to define you.

In Jesus’ name, you rise.

In Jesus’ name, you reclaim your life.

In Jesus’ name, you walk in victory.

This is your day.

This is your time.

Get up and take back your life.

Amen and Amen. Go and Be Blessed.

Day 5 – God Is Faithful, Even in the Waiting

Good morning, my friends. Today is Day 5—December 5th—and as I sit here reflecting, one truth keeps echoing in my spirit: God is faithful. Truly faithful.

There are moments when we look at our lives and think about all the needs, desires, and prayers that should’ve happened by now. We wonder why certain breakthroughs didn’t show up on our timeline. But even in that space of longing, the faithfulness of God remains unchanged.

Take a moment and look around your life. I promise you—there is something you have right now that once felt impossible. Something you prayed for long before you knew it would become part of your everyday life. You may not feel the weight of gratitude for it today because it isn’t threatened or slipping away—but God gave it to you. He knew you needed it before you understood the value of it.

It’s amazing how easily we can feel empty when the one thing we’re chasing doesn’t appear on schedule. The delay becomes so loud that it steals our joy, distracts our minds, and pulls our attention away from everything God has already done. That desire, when left unchecked, begins to overshadow blessings that—if taken away—would leave our lives completely empty.

One thing I’m learning, deeply and personally, is that the best things in life are things money could never buy.

Your family.

Your children.

The air you breathe.

The sky above you.

The peace of stepping outside and letting nature reset your soul.

Nature heals.

And many of us are losing that healing because we’re glued to screens and overwhelmed by social media, comparing, scrolling, striving. Sometimes the joy you think you lost is simply waiting for you outside—in fresh air, sunlight, stillness, and God’s creation.

When we learn to appreciate what we already have, we step into true fulfillment. That’s when we actually start living.

We’re not alive when we’re only chasing.

We’re alive when we’re grateful.

From my own experience, constantly focusing on what God “hasn’t done yet” only created more emptiness in my heart. But when I shifted to thanking Him for what is in my life, and chose to hold joyful expectation for what I’m believing for—something shifted. Blessings flowed more easily. Breakthroughs came faster. Joy returned.

So I ask you today:

Could it be that we sometimes stand in the way of our own blessings?

Could it be that our frustration blocks the very things we’re praying for?

Just think about it.

Today, I am praying for us. In the name of Jesus, may we not allow ambition, desire, or longing to steal the joy of this present moment. I pray that God opens our eyes and hearts to what truly matters. I pray we find gratitude in the blessings that are already here while we joyfully expect the ones that are on the way. And may every desire that aligns with God’s will be fulfilled in His perfect timing—amen.

This is your day.

And today, I’m praying for happy money, blessed money, joyful money, good money to flow into your life in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Welcome to December 3rd — A Beautiful Day of Possibilities

 

Welcome to December 3rd — A Beautiful Day of Possibilities

What’s up, wonderful, amazing, sweet, and lovely people!

Today is a beautiful day, and I’m so happy to share this message with you.

Welcome to December 3rd, and welcome to a fresh wave of joy, clarity, and divine possibility.

Have you ever paused and asked yourself:

What if the wonderful things you desire are already flowing into your life right now?

What if they’re flowing with ease, grace, and alignment?

What if opportunities you never imagined—opportunities designed specifically for your next level—are already waiting for you?

Sit with that for a moment.

Sometimes we hold on to things that drain us, not because they’re good for us, but because we’re afraid of uncertainty.

We fear that if we let go, that’s all there will ever be… no better, no brighter, no more.

But what if that’s a lie?

What if you’ve simply become used to deprivation, lack, and struggle—not because that’s your destiny, but because that’s the familiar pattern your mind learned to cling to?

What if the opportunities that could multiply your money, elevate your life, shift your environment, and bring supernatural acceleration are already available…

but you’re still holding onto something draining only because it feels “normal”?

What if?

Today, I want to open your eyes.

I want you to breathe deeply and open yourself to what is possible for you right now.

Say this with your heart:

✨ I call in greater opportunities.

✨ I receive grace to recognize them, step into them, and embrace them fully.

And pray this:

✨ I release anything in my life, anything within me, and anything in my consciousness that is blocking me from seeing better opportunities, embracing them, and stepping into the unknown. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Because the unknown is where miracles happen.

The unknown is where God surprises you.

The unknown is where freedom lives.

When you stop worrying, you create space.

When you let go, you create flow.

When you open yourself, good things begin to rush in.

So today, be open to the idea of something big—something amazing—entering your life.

Be open to abundance.

Be open to joy.

Be open to divine alignment.

And remember: Don’t let anyone steal your joy.
