Speedily, without delay, and without doubt. That sounds simple. But anyone who has been in that moment knows it is anything but. Because closing the door God is pointing to often means walking away from something that looks good, feels comfortable, or has already cost you something to build. And yet the longer we delay obedience, the more we pay for it....]]></description><link>https://www.lindamckinzie.org/post/seek-the-kingdom</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a60954de2e77f0b3aa5de82</guid><pubDate>Wed, 22 Jul 2026 10:05:26 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/2af914_0a9f5c43132b4ca5b064009d77bfa468~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Linda Mckinzie</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Spirit of Shortcut: Reclaiming Our Hunger for the Word]]></title><description><![CDATA[The Testimony Technology's rapid advance has made mankind lazy, and I don't say that as an outsider looking in — I've felt it in myself. I've lost the heart for reading and studying that I used to carry so naturally. We want a quick fix for everything now: a summary instead of the study, a clip instead of the sermon, a devotional app instead of the discipline. I love to read. I always have.

My Pastor Sabrennia Fountain, taught it plainly: purifying the heart is necessary — just like bathing daily, or more. No one drinks from a dirty cup.

So I asked Him, “What am I feeling? Have I grieved Your Spirit? If so, I repent — show me what, and show me how.” My mind went straight to a relative who had been reaching out to me, back-to-back, about something on her heart.
