Restoration

2010 is a year of restoration. I have not met anyone who is not looking forward to a glorious year ahead. We may be on day 8 out of 365 days but rest assured I am not diminished in my expectation that this year will be great, awesome, glorious, joyous, filled with celebrations, ground breaking, fulfilling, overcoming... the best I have ever had.

Many people talk of the suffering of Job, few ever speak of the double restoration that he received. I have made up my mind that in 2010 I will experience restoration in any area of life I have suffered. If God could do it for Job, then please move out of the way because I am next in line for God's blessing.

What does one need to do to see the results that Job saw? Firstly, make sure you have a relationship with God that is based on the right perspective. When your view is obscured you cannot make the right decisions. Ask yourself if you are walking with Him., the Creator of the Universe. Change your view of God from the punishing God to the One who is boasting about me., the All Wise Great I Am. Job first made his relationship right before God gave him counsel of what to do.

Secondly, learn to listen to Heavenly instructions. For Job it was to pray for others. Ask God for instructions on what you need to do to get into your Canaan-2010. When the children of Israel stepped into Canaan in the book of Joshua it was a moment of restoration. God was taking them back to the place of promise. Restoration will take you to the place where God restores you wholly to the glory of His name. The victory at Jericho was fought following instructions from the Captain of the hosts. What instructions is God speaking to you for 2010? Follow those instructions and 2010 will lead you into the place of green pastures, the place of victory, the place of greatness!! Prayer and the Word of God will help you follow the instructions of God.

May 2010 be your year of restoration. Once restored you will be able to soar to the place God had ordained for you. May your latter be greater than your former. Get ready to step into your more than enough place!!!

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 ...
