Fear Not!!!

Everyone has a dream, and I mean everyone!! Dreams or aspirations come in different sizes. The issue is not the dream but that with every dream we encounter hurdles, or obstacles or challenges towards their fulfillment. Every dream is achievable if one is dogged to pursue it. To achieve the dream one has to break it down into goals that are steps towards fulfilling the big dream!!

The greatest hindrance to fulfillment is FEAR. Fear is not out of the blue. Fear is False Evidence Appearing Real. You see when you focus on facts that are not the truth the feeling of impending danger becomes more real.Truth sets one free. A lie creates fear. The only healthy fear is the fear of God. Any other fear should be questioned as its results are not wholesome.

The Word of God is truth waiting to free anyone who meditates on it. The Word of God empowers one to walk from the place of fear to freedom. Fear is broken by knowing the truth intimately. Meditating on truth results in being set free. When the Word is believed and readily appropriated in everyday life fear is evicted. The bible encourages me not to fear. Why? Because God is bigger than anything that tries to derail the purpose of God. Learn to focus on the truth of the Word and not on the facts presented to you. Decide that the truth of the Word is more real than the facts of life. Sign the contract of life offered by the Word of God and reject the contract offered by circumstances, situations, surroundings, medical reports or life in general. Live your life by the Word and see God do things that were deemed impossible. Fear Not and 2010 will indeed be great!! The fuel to fear not is found in meditating on bible truth and walking in the company of bold faithful people.

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 ...

From the Pit to Safety

The news about the miners rescue has filled the atmosphere with a real lever of optimism. What began as a sad tale has ended well. As I have followed this story over the last 69 days I have had a few thoughts about some of the symbolism of this whole experience. In life we all will find ourselves in a pit (mine) of some sort.Thus the decision to see what I could learn from these great gentlemen. Firstly, they were miners. Do you realise that we all are miners in life? You may not mine for copper but as a lawyer you are mining legal matters that bring you profit. You may be a doctor whose responsibility is to mine to the root of the issue that is troubling a patients body!! We all are mining for a living!!! The miners numbered 33. Jesus was 33 when He was buried. After He died He was buried before He arose. We saw 33 men come out alive. Talk about a resurrection in their lives and in the lives of the men, families, and nation. Each miner underwent change. Whilst in the darkness of th...

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...
