SPACE X WANTS IPO, LAB THROATS, FORGET GLASS SKINNN
SpaceX filed for an IPO yesterday. it was a confidential filing with the SEC. the company could be valued at $1.75 trillion, which would make it the biggest IPO in history. they’re looking to raise up to $75 billion. that’s more than three times the largest US IPO ever. SpaceX recently merged with xAI and was last valued at $1.25 trillion. the listing is expected in June, ahead of expected IPOs from OpenAI and Anthropic
say this: “SpaceX just filed for an IPO. it could be valued at $1.75 trillion. that would make it the biggest IPO in history by a wide margin. they want to raise $75 billion. OpenAI and Anthropic are expected to follow.”
scientists grew a working esophagus in a lab and transplanted it into pigs. the organ was built from a donor esophagus that was stripped of its cells and rebuilt using the recipient’s own cells. all eight animals survived past 30 days. by six months the lab-grown organ had muscle, nerves, and blood vessels. the pigs could eat and grow normally. no immune suppression needed. the team at Great Ormond Street Hospital and UCL plans human trials within five years. this is for babies born without a complete food pipe
say this: “scientists just grew an esophagus in a lab and transplanted it into pigs. it worked. the pigs could eat normally. it grew muscle and nerves on its own. they plan to try it in humans within five years. this is for babies born without one.”
“bloom skin” is replacing “glass skin” in K-beauty. glass skin was about looking glossy and poreless. bloom skin is about looking healthy. even-toned, strong, and hydrated. the shift is from surface shine to actual skin health. facialists say glass skin pushed people toward too many actives. bloom skin is the pullback
say this: “K-beauty moved on from glass skin. the new thing is called bloom skin. instead of glossy and poreless, the goal is even-toned and healthy. facialists say glass skin pushed people to overdo it with actives. bloom skin is the correction.”
The Paradox of Control the more you try to cont
We're taught to believe that control is the key to a good life. That if you can just plan everything perfectly prepare for every outcome and hold on tightly enough you can avoid the chaos the pain the uncertainty. Control feels safe, it feels powerful It feels like the only way to keep your world from falling apart.
Here's the paradox: the tighter you hold on the less control you actually have.
The more you try to force life to fit into your expectations the more it slips through your fingers, because life isn't meant to be controlled it's meant to be lived. And sometimes the only way to truly gain control is to let go.
Whatever you hold on to tightly, will get away from you. Nothing wants to be held, because nothing was designed to be controlled. God designed us with free will, so everything follows that pattern. You don’t have to force outcomes, or situations, or seasons most of all because they will already do, what God has ordained them to do, whether you control them or not.
Let yourself relax, give yourself permission to not assume that everything you can’t control is controlling you, it’s not. Nothing is against you, everything is happening for you. And everything is going to workout for you. I know because it already is.
Pray us out?
THE NEW CREATION DECLARATION
2 Corinthians 5:17
If anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: the old has gone, the new is here!
Thank You, Jesus, that I am a new creation in Christ. Thank You that the old is gone, the new is here. I put on my new identity in Christ in the name of Jesus.
I make my body, my flesh, and my soul subject to who I am in the Spirit. I make it subject to who I am in my new nature.
The light of life lives inside of me.
The light of life lives inside of my atoms at a molecular level.
The Holy Spirit radiates out of me.
In Jesus’ name, I am a new creation.
⋆
I put off the old identity.
I put off the old self in which I’ve been programmed to believe that I am all my life.
I put it off and I put on the new self.
I put on the righteousness of God.
⋆
All memories, all traumas, and all sin cycles stop when I declare that I’m a new creation.
All sin cycles stop when I put on my new identity.
All sin cycles stop when I put on the robes of righteousness.
All sin cycles stop when I put on the helmet of salvation and the crown in which I rule from because I am seated in heavenly places.
I walk in power and authority in the name of Jesus.
I walk as a new creature.
It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me.
In the Spirit, I am seated in heavenly places right now.
⋆
I am a co-heir in Christ. Everything in the Father’s house I have access to.
I have access to healing, and I declare healing over my body.
I have access to provision and finances, so I declare finances and provision to do the will of the Father.
I have access to health and wholeness in my body, so I declare health and wholeness over my entire being.
I have access to divine knowledge, so I declare divine knowledge over my mind — knowledge over people’s situations, supernatural insight as to strongholds that are trying to come over my life and trying to create confusion.
I have that divine insight, intel, and discernment that comes from Holy Spirit because I am seated in heavenly places.
⋆
I am a royal priesthood.
That means I have authority in the name of Jesus. I’m not just saved, but I have authoritative divine power in the realm of the Spirit to make things on earth as it is in heaven.
Even though my default programming has been to rely on my emotions, my circumstances, how I feel, my lack, my health, anxiety, demonic attacks, people leaving, and opportunities not working, I no longer identify with those things because I am a royal priesthood, a co-heir with Christ, and a new creation.
⋆
Therefore, my life on earth looks drastically different than it used to look.
In the name of Jesus, I put off my mind and I put on the mind of Christ.
We have the mind of Christ.
I declare right now that I no longer struggle to hear from God, because the mind of Christ does not struggle to hear from the Lord.
I do not struggle with prophetic knowledge, because the mind of Christ does not struggle with prophetic knowledge.
⋆
So I put off my carnal mind, I separate it from my body, and I put on the righteous, glorious, pure mind of Christ.
When the Father looks at me, He sees purity.
When the Father looks at me, He sees His Son.
So right now, in the name of Jesus, I put on the mind of Christ.
I declare I can hear Holy Spirit.
I can hear the voice of the Father.
I can hear the voice of Jesus.
I can understand their personalities.
I can understand their unique identities.
⋆
Because it’s no longer my thoughts that are popping up, it is God’s thoughts and God’s voice that is speaking into my mind, not my own thoughts.
I am a new creation, and I declare that I will walk in that power and authority today.
We take dominion and power over every principality suffocating our minds and our hearts, tormenting us with memory of past sin, past trauma, and past cycles.
We take hold of that in the Spirit and submit it to the feet of Jesus and declare freedom and deliverance in Jesus’ name.
⋆
I tear down any carnal intellectual arguments about who we are in Christ in the Spirit.
I tear down the structures of intellectualism by walking in power and authority.
And though life is uncertain, I walk in a certainty that Jesus died and rose again, and His blood is completely washing over my being every minute of today.
⋆
I submit my emotions, how I feel, the cloud of doubt, and the fog of fear at the feet of Jesus, and I choose right now to no longer live from that paradigm.
In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I command my body and my soul to awaken to my new nature and to walk in that power and authority for the rest of the day.
⋆
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.
today will be the bestttt yet <3
