Divine Encounters

Day 48 Reading: Num. 27:1 - Num. 30:16 God is a God of justice. Many today seek what is fair however many times they never get what justice has for them. The inheritance laws were clear about who would possess what. They seemed fair however the daughters of Zelophehad didn't think they were just. The Law didn't have a just settlement for where there was no male figure in a family. They questioned whether the law was inadvertently writing off the name of the family and his lineage because he didn't have boys. God's response is just and fair. A balance that is difficult to get in today's law systems.  The succession of leadership is important to God. Moses knew he wouldn't go into Canaan and sought God for a shepherd for the people. He didn't seek just for a leader but a shepherd. As a leader learn to wait on God on everything. Yes, Joshua was with Moses and it could have been easy to assume that he should take over, however, Moses asked God for d...

In the midst of the challenges of life and many pursuits of life I have discovered that only one person should occupy the centre of life. I have discovered that living a life without God in the centre is disastrous. No matter what the challenge in life you are facing, irrespective of the obstacles that are standing before you; despite the Goliath facing you, the mountain standing before you or the walls of Jericho resisting your progress or the armies set against your progress God remains God!!!  Remind yourself always that He is God and there is no other. He was not elected God, however you must make the choice and let Him reign always as God irrespective of what circumstances say. God's tenure cannot be curtailed as He is Eternal in existence and has no ending as He is the Beginning and the End.  You may ask why should I have God in the centre of my life. I have discovered that God is the Creator, and not having Him in the centre will derail the journey of life. Not...

Congratulations on arriving into 2012. This year I am getting set to walk into places that are closed to man but not to God. I am getting set for the best days of my life and know that I will enter places that will only be summarised as divine. You may wonder why I am so sure that I will enter places that man cannot get one into. Note the following incident recorded in the bible. When Jesus resurrected He entered the room where the disciples were even though the doors were shut which meant no human being could enter John 20:26 . Not only did He enter through the walls that were humanly impenetrable but he also ate a meal with them Luke 23:42-43 . By virtue of the resurrection you and I are accorded certain benefits that bring us to divine levels. The same Spirit that raised Jesus from the grave is also resident within you and I to give us life that sets us apart Romans 8:11 . This year anyone who sees Jesus as the Door and willingly enters through Him will breakthrough like never bef...

Everyday I meet people who are seeking for answers to challenges we all face as we go through life. I wake up everyday and thank God that I am a problem solver. You and I are busy solving problems at different spheres of life. As a Christian I have discovered that life hinges on one key. This key is best seen as the hinge to the solutions of issues we face. This key is the gateway to the following: Sustenance Provision Protection Deliverance Favour Abundance Promotion Everlasting life The key is found in Psalms 23:1, which begins with an announcement and declaration by David that The Lord is My Shepherd. Every subsequent verse that speaks of the blessings provided hinges on God being the Lord and Shepherd of our life. I urge that you make Him the Lord of your life and heed Him as He shepherds you to green pastures in every area of life; still waters and not stormy places; sets a table before your enemies; anoints your head; and surely mercy and goodness will follow you all the ...
