You Will Share Your Testimony by THIS Date.
by Nikki Walton of CurlyNikki.com
God is conscious of you. And you’re growing more conscious of Him every day. You’re synchronizing with Him. You’re beginning to see more like Him. You’re hearing inclinations from the Spirit… including the sense that the season of your seeming delay is ending. The lessons are learned and embodied. And you’ve learned and continue to learn the absolute necessity of staying lifted in praise.
When Moses kept his arms raised during the battle against the Amalekites (Exodus 17:8-13), Israel prevailed; when he let them drop, the enemy gained ground. On the surface, it’s about intercession and dependence on God’s power, but spiritually it points to staying lifted in faith, praise, and JOY, because Joy is strength (Nehemiah 8:10), right?! It’s our whole practice, remember?!
Moses’ hands were raised toward heaven, an embodied prayer. His uplifted arms said, “The victory isn’t mine; it’s Yours, Lord.” Aaron and Hur supported him when he grew tired, and as long as his posture stayed lifted, Israel triumphed.
This was for us. This is a promise to us. For you, right now. How often are you putting those arms down… to relax haha or in defeat… or to weep a bit. Last night my son was threatening to quit soccer and I gave him a pep talk akin to this. I jokingly grabbed him by the collar and shook him gently saying with somebody’s accent lol, ‘pull yourself together man’ … as I said it again in my head just now, it sounds like Ren from Ren and Stimpy! Remember that wild show?! But I digress… per usual lol.
Hands lifted symbolize the heart lifted… the energy lifted… the JOY HIGH… the inner gaze fixed above circumstances. When Joy falls, heaviness wins. When Joy stays raised, the Presence moves unhindered.
You could say:
“When Moses’ arms stayed lifted, Joy stayed lifted, and Joy kept the flow of divine power unbroken… it kept him winning. It kept the enemy back.”
On my walk today it started to drizzle and I was 3 miles from home without an umbrella. I started to feel that familiar anxiety, looking around for an umbrella shop like that made sense… when I could feel the Holy Spirit still my mind (which was trying to see the silver lining already of considering the rain on my head a Holy Baptism… whatever I could do to reframe to cope with the unfortunate circumstances haha).
But the Holy Spirit said, ‘No‘. I remember my hand raised a little with that gesture. NO. NO RAIN. And the JOY returned. It eclipsed the anxiety of being rained on. And I made it back home dry. And now, the sun is out! It came out even more as I typed that word! Love is here.
Scriptural Examples
- Nehemiah 8:10: “The joy of the Lord is your strength.”
- Psalm 28:7: “My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise Him.”
- 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18: “Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances.”
Each of these shows you that Joy, praise, and prayer are one movement… the upward stance of trust. Deep trust. A higher Trust. It’s beyond the mind.
Moses on the mountain shows what happens when you refuse to let your heart drop into despair.
Keeping your “arms” up means staying UP in worship even when you’re weary (not fainting… praying), holding the line of gratitude when fear is trying to creep back in, and letting others ‘hold up your arms’ when your strength fades. THAT’S WHY I’M HERE! I’m your Aaron. I’m your Hur. I’m that voice calling in the wilderness… or like that dude on IG with that cardboard sign with awesome statements: “IT’S NOT REAL.” lol! “Whatever it is… don’t be afraid.” “ONLY LOVE IS HERE!”
It’s important to note that this is not spiritual bypassing. Keeping your Joy raised is not pretending everything’s fine, but refusing to bow to hopelessness because you know Who fights for you. Who has won. THE BLOOD WON. You’ve been fooled into fear your whole life. You’ve been fooled into thinking you’re not fighting a spiritual battle your whole dang life. It stops now. You called out the enemy. You stand with the Victor. You stand in Victory, AS VICTORY. In Joy. AS JOY. Until the world catches up. You conquered the world. Remember? … You’re remembering 🙂

SAVE THE DATE – DECLARE THAT IT’S DONE
I’m not giving you a date. You are declaring one. Decreeing one. Whatever is going on with you. Whatever your mountain is. Whatever you thought of when you first clicked on this post. Whatever you need to happen or change or heal or get paid off… you know. THAT. It’s done. It’s finished. Feel the Joy of that final word, NOW.
As you continue reading, your inner arms are lifted like Moses’… your heart is weeping tears of Joy, your whole being, every cell is celebrating, your blood is His Blood and His Blood is FIRE… your whole system is LIT… CHARGED. STAY LIKE THIS.
AND AS THE HOLY SPIRIT (not as you), DECLARE THAT IT’S DONE. PUT IT INTO WORDS. I AM SAYING, “I WILL WAKE UP THE WORLD TO THIS LOVE.” YOU SAY WHAT MAKES SENSE TO YOU AND YOUR SITUATION. YOU WILL TAKE OVER. YOU WILL BE FINANCIALLY FREE. YOU WILL BE LOVE(D). YOU WILL CONQUER.
AND THEN MARK THE CALENDAR. OPEN YOUR PHONE APP AND CHOOSE THE “FUTURE” DATE, AND ADD THE WORDS “MY TESTIMONY”. AND IN THE NOTES SECTION, PUT MY EMAIL ADDRESS OR MY WEBSITE ([email protected]). YOU WILL COME HERE THAT DAY AND TESTIFY. UNTIL THAT DAY COMES, YOU WILL CONTINUE YOUR DECREE WHENEVER IT COMES TO YOU.
Yes I was yelling that whole time. I didn’t even hit caps lock haha I was holding down the shift key, that’s how serious I am.
Also, as a reminder I need you to know that your words are not spells or magical in anyway. They actually don’t really matter lol. Whether you’re decreeing over and over or shooting your arrow prayers (Jesus, Blood, or JOY JOY JOY), it’s not the repetition that saves you… it’s the dimension that word points to. It’s not the chant,IT’S THE CHANGE. Joy is the substance of the Kingdom. THE WORDS GET YOU INTO THE JOY. AND THEN YOU CAN DROP THE WORDS AND KNOW THAT THIS ENERGY IS THE ______ (YOUR THING).
The name of Jesus is power, yes… but it’s power because it opens that dimension. The moment you’re in it, you’re healed. You’re whole. You’re seated. YOU HAVE. You’re not trying to get to God, you are in God, and God is in you. That’s Joy. That’s Jesus. That’s the real testimony.
The realm of Jesus isn’t in syllables or sounds, it’s in the shift. The knowing. The stillness. You be still in the knowing. And then that bubbles up into Joy and that bubbles over into breakthrough.
JOY IS A FELT-REALM. IT’S THE MOUNTAINTOP. STAY UP HERE WITH ME.
I love you,
nik
p.s. If you don’t know what to declare or decree… JUST FEEL THE JOY. STRONGER AND STRONGER. BRIGHTER AND BRIGHTER. I CAN SEE YOU FROM HERE. KEEP YOUR HEART FULL. DON’T LET ANYTHING IN BUT HIM AND THINGS OF HIM. IT’S LIKE THE JOY ITSELF BECOMES THE MANTRA, THE CHANT. THIS IS KEY…the Joy is your real language. The one before you learned English. I love you!

SIT WITH US DAILY ON SILENT RETREAT
Every Friday, I’m giving away a signed copy of my book, ‘Wake Up to Love’, and a $100 Amazon gift card to the person with the most thoughtful comments on the site that week! 💛
Your words matter. Your story matters. Let’s build something beautiful together.





The date has been set for me to leave a job and I’m going to be obedient to the gifts that God has given me and allow them to be surrender to his will. Thank you for the reminder to keep your arms raised and the verses to stay anchored in. Keep doing this amazing work for the Lord.
PS.
Ren and Stimpy was a wild show….lol.
Dear Nikki, much love from Zimbabwe 🇿🇼. Thank you for sharing this. The Blood of Jesus saved us from the empty life we inherited from our ancestors. The Sinless-Spotless Lamb of God redeemed us so that we can have Godly inheritance. You are amazing Nikki. I relocated from Zimbabwe to UK 3 years ago and I haven’t achieved anything because of generational curses that follows bloodline. I read 1 Peter 1 verse 1-25 and it helped me. My visa was cancelled and this whole year I was not employed. I thank God this October i get another Visa and i am praying that i will be called onboard to a new job. The blood of Jesus saved me. May you remember me in your prayers. What i was planning to do in the past 3 years of relocating that didn’t happen I declare right now by the Blood of Jesus it shall come to pass and i will testify. What the enemy took away these past 3 years my God in Joel 2 verse 25 will restore. I used to cry and i am still crying. A 40 year old me who got a family to feed and failing my duties as a parent hurt me most. May God bless me and my family and may he grant us all our heart desires. No weapon formed against us shall prosper. Thank you Nikki
