What Are You Hearing?

Words are powerful, in fact Solomon said that death and life is in the power of the words Proverbs 18:21. Your words make your life., but I have come to realise that for dreams to become real you have to speak what is within your heart and mind. Your words must be synchronised with your thoughts to produce the dream you desire. Nobody learns to speak without first hearing someone speak. We learn to speak from our hearing others speak. Listening to many people today I have realised that we have to regulate what we hear that we may speak aright.

Words are so powerful that when God spoke darkness backed off, Genesis 1:3. Jesus said that we would be judged by the words we speak; its words that hold the world together. Looking at the world today we can see the effects of bad words and great words. What you hear affects what you speak out. Spend time listening to words that are not life filled and you will soon bring forth nothing that is life filled, consequently if you develop a habit of filling your life not just with positive, creative, good words but with faith filled words you soon discover that every mountain will move at your word. What you hear will determine your values in life also. Determine to regulate what you hear as it will affect the paths of life you take.

Every word carries a spirit with it. It is either a life giving spirit or a death warrant. Be careful what you hear as it will either give you life or lead you to death.  The person behind the words spoken or sang transmits a spirit through their words. As God is light, when He spoke darkness could not comprehend the power of His words. Let the Word of God be what you hear always and allow it to build your life. Let the Word of God determine your value system and not the words of mere mortals. Hear the Word of God continually and not occasionally to see what you are hearing as God's plan for you become manifested.

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...
