I Am Called

Many times we face situations that cause us to doubt our identity. We are faced with onslaughts everyday that if not attended to can easily lead to a disheartened posture towards life. Life was not meant to be a place where we drown!! Life is a place for us to display the glory of God. Life is a place for me to show forth the goodness and mercy of God.

As we continue on the bible reading challenge we today begin Jeremiah. The first chapter sets a scene of the God's calling and ordination of this prophet. From the conversation that God has with Jeremiah, certain truths are set forth that am I am willing to embrace.

Firstly, I am called and ordained of God. My calling is not man-made but originates from the mouth of God. No one, nothing in life can change the fact that God has called me. I am ordained of Him for Him by Him. Secondly and importantly, my ordination was not decided when I showed up on mother earth. God had me in mind before creation. No life situation can overcome what God has already registered about me. I have a choice to make. Do I identify with the purpose of God or do I choose the plans of man? I choose the purpose, design, plan, ordination of God.

Identify the purpose of God for your life and see His power manifest His glory in all you do. Walk the path He has set for you and see Him perform His Word in power and might. Don't despise yourself. Don't allow any human limitation hinder your fulfilling the plan of God. Listen to what the Word is saying and see your life elevate into the supernatural realm. Proclaim the Word of God and see the God of the Word move on your behalf.

Now is....

Everyday I seek to share something that I have learnt through the daily reading. I make a choice to discipline myself not to write too much as we inundated with a lot of reading material. Feel free to add comments because that way we share and thus encourage one another to grow into the fullness of Christ. Today I am amazed at the fact that God will always remember His covenant and fulfill the promise. I want to list five words in the order they appear in one scripture that showed God is at work in our lives. Remembered : My God will never forget me. To be delayed is not to be denied as God will surely remember. God spoke and said to Sarah that He would return at the appointed time; at the right season!!! I do believe that we are in a season where we will see God begin to act on the promises that seem forgotten. Or better put in another way there is a resurrection of seemingly forgotten prophecies that is about to take place. Dry bones are beginning to take shape. Listened : No longer ...

Blessing or ....

To live well is one thing we all desire. I have never met anyone who did not want to live well. By living well for some people it means helping others. For others it means having a successful business. Yet for others it means travelling the world. I have discovered that it is not money that empowers but the blessing of God that empowers. Money is simply one of the many ways that the effects of the blessing may show up. Many times today in society we confuse money with being blessed yet people like Mother Teresa did not flaunt money but her life still is blessing many people round the world. The book of Deuteronomy has challenged me to desire to be blessed. Anyone who has walked with the blessing of God in their live has seen doors open that are a struggle for others. Yesterday I wrote about obedience. What obedience opens our lives to is the operation of the blessing. By choosing to obey the Word we are choosing to open our lives to be blessed. The purpose of being blessed is not self ...

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 ...
