Your Coronation is Here

As we prepare for Christmas it important that we don't lose focus on the King who was born a child. The whole purpose of Christmas is not the food we eat, the fun we have, neither is it because of Santa or the gifts from loved ones. Jesus is the reason we celebrate. In the midst of the celebration my mind is still focused on the coming year. Yes am grateful for this year but for me Christmas is also a time to celebrate what God has done throughout the year.

In today's reading we encounter the coronation of David. He had waited for the fulfillment of the promise that he would be king over God's people. Am sure there were days when he felt that things were not moving. Other days he must have wondered where God was. But am glad the bible not only shows us the calling of David, but also the journey towards fulfillment and the coronation.

In 2010 see yourself being crowned. When the promise that you have waited on God becomes manifest that is your moment of coronation. I hear clearly that kingly robes are to be given out in the coming year as we become what we were ordained to be. The struggle is over, get ready to seat where you were called to reign. Prepare for your investiture. There are mantles God is handing out in 2010 prepare yourself to receive the mantle you have desired.

Absalom's Treachery

Day 91 Reading: 2 Sam. 14:1 - 2 Sam. 15:37 One of life's most painful lessons is the treachery of human beings. When family or friends hurt you and leave you grieving the pain is not the same as when someone out on the street does something wrong. The pain goes deeper and it's easy to become bitter. Absalom had fled from Israel knowing that he was a wanted man for the murder and revenge on Ammon his step-brother. Joab arranged for a wise woman to go see David and get him to forgive Absalom. The wise woman made David realise that he was not setting a godly example by exiling Absalom. The wise woman made David understand that God will not banish anyone but he will seek the person out. God will do everything in His power to restore the banished person. The wise woman was asking David not to forget the grace of God that enables one to enjoy forgiveness. David gets Absalom brought back to Jerusalem however for 2 years he didn't see him. Now, this was worse than ...

Berachah

Day 126 Reading: 2 Chronicles 20:1 - 2 Chronicles 22:12 While meditating on the above portion of scriptures hope was rising within as I realised that God is indeed more than able to fight for me. I don't know what is ailing you or contending with your well being. What I know is that God is able to resolve the crisis for good. King Jehoshaphat was advised that a great army was coming to fight him. Fear gripped him and he ran to God. He summoned the entire nation to seek the face of God. While he made prayer for salvation from the enemy the entire nation including children were together fasting in prayer. He understood that in trouble one should run to God. The king didn't run to other nations to fight for him. Nope, He ran to God. Run to God always. In the midst of an entire nation seeking God, a prophet arose who declared the counsel of God. The battle belongs to God. Always remind yourself that in every battle God is with you. The prophet even instructed where...

Arise!!

The world today is one where many feel as though life is beating them down. The different challenges we face in this journey called life have punched many down and out. The fuel price increases, the job cuts, economic recession in different parts of the world, government changes either through the ballot or bullet, governments going broke, floods, drought, to just but name a few things facing many in the world today. It's difficult to go to a party and you don't hear bad news relating to someone you know. The world is changing. The weather patterns are affected by global warming, societal values held by previous generations are being obliterated by the ones following, and guess what, life for many is a nightmare. Today, I want to encourage that person who is lying down beaten by life. We all at times go through situations in life where we are down. It may appear that life's challenges have handed down a technical knockout blow, but humanity was not made to be beaten by lif...
