Get Ready

I have not blogged for the last 7 days for many reasons. One is because I felt a need to take time out and just recharge myself. Also I perceive that the spiritual atmosphere is changing. God is about to do something and I need to position myself for what He wants me to do. Divine opportunities fall onto those who are prepared.

I have in the last few days had one word popping into my mind: ATTITUDE. I believe that there is an arising about to take place in many peoples lives. I believe that God's light is about to shine on those who have sat in darkness Micah 7:8-9 waiting on Him who enlightens the darkness Ps 18:28 because He is The Light. Your arising though will be affected by your attitude.

The story of Jonah is one that touches me about the attitude to have when pursuing destiny. This gentleman choose to run away from God instead of obeying God. The story in the last chapter of the book of Jonah shows him complaining and being appreciative of God's mercy.

Here was a man who feared God yet had an attitude problem. Here was a gent who was unhappy that God was merciful. He was sad that God sent him all that way and he did not get the reaction that he wanted. God will choose mercy over judgement when one repents.

Check you heart and ask yourself why you do what you do? Serve out of love and purity and get ready to see God goodness flow through your life in ways never seen before. A great attitude leads to great heights of greatness. A lousy attitude leads to drudgery in life.

Get ready by developing the right attitude.

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...

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 ...

A better tomorrow

Everyone is hopeful for a better tomorrow. That's why we say "Good morning" at the start of the day. It's an indicator of the hope within that welcomes the dawning of a new day to bring better fortunes our way. God's mercies are new every morning and His compassion does not fail. When faced with adversity it becomes harder to see a better tomorrow, but resilient people are focused on the fact that trouble is only a comma in the sentence of life. At a time where fear has gripped many hearts because of various reasons, it is difficult to remain hopeful. Without hope, you cannot have the faith necessary to live. Faith is the substance of what is hoped for. Faith gives hope tangibility. To be without hope is to open the door of low living. Hopelessness is the start of damnation in life. You and I were born for a reason. We are not just statistics, making up numbers in any particular nation. You and I were born to reign in life. That situation that has so far made...
