Time For Change

Everyone is born with a desire to achieve. Not everyone's desire is the same thus measuring desire for achievement cannot be computed by an equation without taking into account many factors that vary with every person. Over the last few weeks as I have looked within and without and I have felt the need to change my life is what God desires most. One cannot achieve much in life without change. We are constantly tweaking areas of our lives to achieve more. Change is a constant in our lives whether we like it or not. 

The bible is replete with examples of men and women who achieved fulfilment in life when they changed. Elisha changed from a farmer to being the person God called him to be. Esther changed from the simple girl to the being a queen after 1 year of beautification; the disciples were changed from mere men to becoming apostles after spending time with the Master. 

The time for change is here. The challenges we are facing in life are to help cultivate the conditions necessary to birth a new person. This season of change will see you and I emerge as beautiful butterflies. It may be rough right now and all may appear not to understand you and I, but be still and know that God is in control Psalms 46:10. God is orchestrating change in our lives and whoever cooperates with Him will bear fruit.

I want to encourage you to see your change. See your new season as one of fruitfulness and not failure; see your new season as one of soaring higher than ever before; see your life turning around to becoming a fruitful vine wherever there has been barrenness. See yourself possessing your dreams in your hands and winning every fight to possessing your dream. Feed your faith in God to see your destiny being fulfilled. Once you begin seeing your dreams bigger than your current scenario then begin to make adequate changes to achieving those dreams reality.

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...
