God's Not Through With Me!!

Many times while walking on this journey of life we look at our lives and wonder where we are headed to. While speaking with many friends I kept hearing the words 'am tired of this or that'. We are tired of working hard and seemingly going nowhere. The storms that are raging in the world are not only political or economic but every fibre of life is experiencing a shaking. 

I have used the Word of God to encourage myself constantly whenever I am faced with challenges. As I have continued to read and listen to the Word of God I have understood why Paul said that the reason he could face the future boldly was because he was confident and full of trust of God in whom he had committed his all to(2 Timothy 1:12). Paul understood that God was in control of everything and that even when things didn't seem favourable God would work them out in his favour (Romans 8:28). 

I want to encourage anyone and everyone who may think that life is just not happening for them as they desire. Anyone who places their entire trust in God, He who is the Creator and Ruler of the Universe will show up on their behalf. God has never failed and if you ensure you are His project then know for sure that He will not let you down. I will close with this promise and prayer by the Psalmist that I believe is appropriate for this season.

"The Lord will perfect that which concerns me; Your mercy, O Lord endures forever; do not forsake the works of Your hands. Psalms 138:8" NKJV

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...

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 ...
