MAKE THAT MOVE

-

Psalm 145:19 KJV

[19] He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them.


There are people who want to attempt a few things or take steps in life but are afraid of the unknown. Some have the fear of failure, some procrastinate, others are bothered about what people will say and so on. The desire to make progress or add value must be stronger than the excuses that try to stop you. The devil has a way of holding people captive with lies in their thoughts. You need to break free from such lies and focus on your desired goal. Be unstoppable. The moment you overcome the thought/lie, you break free. Those excuses produce fear. They are false evidences appearing real. Esther needed to go before the king to appeal on behalf of her people in order to override a conspiracy that was meant to eliminate the Jews, but she was handicapped by the law that anyone who appears before the king without being sent for will be put to death, except those who find favor with the king and he stretches out the golden scepter. Her uncle, Mordecai, made her realize the urgency of the matter and the fact that maybe she was in the palace for such a time. She overcame the fear of death and made up her mind that she and her people will seek God in fasting and prayer and she will go before the king, if she perishes, she perishes. She appeared before the king without being summoned on the third and she found favor with the king and her request was granted. What if she didn’t make the move? The moment the desire to rescue her people became so strong, the obstacle became a walk over. You too can accomplish that goal if you let it become a very strong desire and you turn to God. Dare to make that move today and do the extra ordinary. If God be for you, nothing can be against you. It’s time to walk on water like Peter. Go forth and prosper in Jesus name. 

Shalom

    Amen and Amen. Thank you so much for this spiritual awakening consciousness of God's presence at such times, in spite of our fears. That He uses even that to glorify His name in face of our limitedness. Hallelujah! Thank you, great mother.

Uncontrollable Circumstances of life

-
I woke on the 4th of June which was my birthday with a heart of thanksgiving. I honestly have so many reasons to thank God looking at the goodness of God in my life. It was a Sunday and the church celebrated me, coupled with the fact that the day before was our 28th wedding anniversary. So it was double celebration characterized with so much singing and dancing, giving glory to God.  Usually my parents will call early to sing and pray, which was their custom for all their children and grandchildren, but they didn’t call me. I assumed it was because it was a Sunday and they knew we will be getting ready for church.  After service I called to ask why they didn’t call me, my mom said I should put that aside. They prayed for me. I spoke with my mom thrice that day, the last was 6pm when she called saying she will be going to buy something. I said I’ll come the following day to take since she prefers I drive her instead of her driver, but she said I shouldn’t bother. My dad called me at 8:3

DON’T GIVE UP

  Challenges and dificulties are unavoidable. They come whether you are walking in God’s will or not. Sarah, Hannah and Elizabeth had to contend with barrenness. We all have to contend with one challenge or the other at every point in life.  When you are faced with difficult situations, do you give up or walk through? A very good example of a person that persevered is Abraham Lincoln. He failed some many times but he pushed past his failures and eventually became the 16th president of the United States. His name is known till date because he didn’t give up. Life is full of experiences that will make you swim or sink.    Don’t wait to learn to swim when the boat is at verge of capsizing. God is always willing to walk us through every difficult situation. Build a strong relationship with God before crises.  Faith believes what it can’t see which is contrary to the world standard. People can easily relate with what they can see that is why they state the obvious. Always see the light at t

COUNT IT ALL JOY

  James 1:2-3 KJV - My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; 3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. Contrary to the normal human mindset, we are instructed to count our trials and temptations as joy. This is kingdom mindset, not the world’s. God’s plan is to use our trials to make us grow and to strengthen us.    This looks impossible to the natural man. That is why the scriptures the natural man receives not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. Those trials try our faith and produce patience in you. Faith is built as you hear the word of God, but trials reveal how much faith you have. Faith is tested through trials but not produced by trials. Counting your trials as joy is a way of expressing your faith and it shows whether you are focusing on the trial or on God. When you focus on God, it depicts your trust in Him and empowers you to giv
