Realities and Truth

John 3:16 KJV [16] For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Giving means  to present voluntarily and without expecting compensation . Giving is a function of stewardship. God owns everything because He is the Creator, Maker and Giver of all things , so when we give, we are merely giving back a portion of what belongs to God. Our God is a giving God. Giving is one of his attributes. People give of their time, talents, and finances, not out of a sense of duty or in anticipation of a promised blessing, but out of a grateful life given by a generous God Give Sacrificially Jesus said the widow’s offering in Mk12:41-44 was    more, compared to those that gave fat offering because it amounted to all she had. There is a great difference between the contribution of the rich and the commitment of the poor widow. She did not hold back all she had to survive but believed that God will ultimately ta

Job 8:7 KJV [7] Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase. In the Gospel of Matthew, reference is made to the mustard seed in a parable. It is said that the Kingdom of God is   like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field; which indeed is smaller than all seeds but when it is grown, it is greater than the herbs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in its branches. The greatness of the mustard seed is not dependent on the size. It is a small seed that carries the potential of greatness on the condition that it is sown. The potential is useless if nothing is done with the seed. Greatness is not automatic. It must be harnessed. Every seed that is sown births the potential harvest in it. If it is not sown, it can’t bring forth harvest.  Greatness is always hidden in small/little things. It is usually concealed. This is one of the hidden wisdom of God. Jesus was given birth to in a manger. Looking at the g

Proverbs 24:6 KJV [6] For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellors there is safety. Mind your association this year. Your association can enable you or disable you. It determines how far you go in life. Some people around you look like enablers but they only help you to be crippled and to stay down. They politely make you feel small and make light of your little achievements They enjoy the fact that what they say or do make you think little of yourself. It’s just to set you back.  Be careful who you pay attention to. Evil communication corrupts good manners. Be careful who you spend time with. When a leaf stays long on soap, it becomes soap. You become like those you spend time with. You are an average of the five people you spend time with. Be intentional about your association this year so that you don’t journey with Jonah who rocked the ship and put everyone’s life in jeopardy.  I will conclude this article with a beautiful explanation on Association

Psalm 121:1-2 KJV [1] I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. [2] My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth. Welcome to year 2022 our year of Strategic Establishment and Marvelous Help. This year you will enjoy God’s help more than in times past. The story of a little boy that went for shopping with the dad comes to mind. The boy and the dad were leaving the store where they went shopping, the owner of the store told the boy to take a hand full of sweets free, the boy stood there looking at the father. The owner of the store repeated the offer, the boy still stood there looking at his dad. The dad reached into the candy jar and took a hand full of sweets and gave it to his son. His dad asked him why he didn’t take the sweets, he said because I know your hand is bigger than mine. Like this little boy, look to your Heavenly Father this year for help. That boy could have helped himself but he had the understanding that what he will get will be
