Enough is Enough

Have you ever gotten to a place where you are fed up with the life you have lived so far and just desire to see a change. Over the last few days in the midst of the euphoria of being in the host city of the Olympic games I have become very discontent with my life. Now I am not being ungrateful that I am alive or even healthy; and I am not complaining. I just don't think I have achieved all that God has destined for me. I believe and know that I was born to influence this world for God. I was born to make a difference not just be different.

In the middle of the night recently while walking the streets I began to cry as I realised that I haven't even scratched the surface of all that I can be. As I looked within myself and looked at all that God has for me I realised that its time to make necessary changes that will affect every area of my life. God has placed a hunger within me to strive for more and it begins with a

Change begins with a cry. A cry for better or more; a cry for that which God has destined for me; a cry for the manifestation of all He has ordained for me. Jacob after wrestling with an angel realised that this wasn't enough. You and I may have wrestled through life and not won yet but the blessing God has for us when we cry to Him to connect us with HIs blessing results in spectacular manifestations. Not only was Jacob a changed man but His name was changed.  

Change is never accomplished easily but with a passionate attitude or desire to rise to greatness. I made up my mind that I have lived life on the low end enough my time to rise to the greatness God has ordained for me is here. I want to encourage you to rise and fight for your throne that God has prepared for you. David had to fight to see the promise of his reign fulfilled. Pharaoh wont let you go easily, you must be willing to rise to fight for your change of circumstances. Goodbye to the old and I say welcome to the new season of fulfilment. You and I were not born just to float through life but to be influencers of this world. I have settled it within my heart that I will be an influencer per excellence.

Now is....

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 ...
