When I Let Go of Strategy, God Sent the Signal

I’ve said it before — I’ve prayed for confirmation, and God has answered me. Over and over.
He’s shown me I’m on the right path. That Break the Flesh is not just a good idea — it’s a God idea.

But today… it hit differently.

😔 The Weight Was Back — Again

Even with all the confirmations, even with all the answered prayers… the weight was back this morning. That same familiar heaviness I’ve been wrestling with lately. And I was tired.

Tired of pushing.
Tired of wondering if I’m doing enough.
Tired of trying to make this movement “work.”

So I did what I’ve been learning to do — I prayed.

But this time, my prayer wasn’t just about Break the Flesh. It was deeper. I asked God to show me something. A sign that this work, this effort, this discipline… that it wasn’t in vain.

🎥 The Post That Wasn’t Meant to Be a Post

Here’s the wild part.

Before I even prayed — before I had a word of clarity — I did something uncharacteristic for me.

I posted a short video on social media.
No strategy.
No carefully timed drop.
No keyword-stuffed caption.
No polished hashtags.
Just a raw 15–30 second clip I had messed around with in CapCut days ago and left as a draft.

No plan. No pressure. No expectations.

And then something happened.

📈 20 Minutes Later: 300 Views

Now look, I don’t chase views. That’s not what this is about. But I do pay attention to patterns — and this one stood out.

I had posted another video earlier that morning — one I did plan. One I thought was great. That one? Five views.

But this messy, unplanned, off-the-cuff one?
Three. Hundred. Views. In 20 minutes.

I don’t pretend to know the algorithm. Maybe it was timing. Maybe it was chance.
But I don’t believe in coincidences like that anymore.

This felt like God whispering through the numbers:

“Keep going.
Not everything has to be polished.
Not everything has to hit.
Some things will land, some won’t — but the mission stands.
I’m in this. I’m still breathing on it.”

🕊️ The Real Message: Trust the Long Race

We’re in a culture of instant gratification — viral hits, overnight success, quick dopamine.
But Break the Flesh isn’t built on virality.
It’s built on surrender. Consistency. Obedience.

This is not a sprint.
It’s not even a marathon.
It’s a triathlon — long, layered, and built for endurance.

And today, God reminded me:

“You don’t need to master the algorithm.
You need to master obedience.”

💬 For Anyone Wrestling with Doubt Today…

If you’re showing up every day but wondering if it matters — it does.

If you’re trying your best but feel like nothing’s moving — it is.

If you’re overthinking the outcome — maybe it’s time to let go of the outcome and just move.

God doesn’t need your strategy.
He wants your surrender.

📌 Anchor Line:

“When I stopped overthinking it, God showed me — I’m still in this with you.”
