the watcher

We should be reminded that we live in a world that could be so noisy.  A lot of sounds coming in from every corner. The noise could even be from within us: 1Samuel 15:16 Then Samuel said to Saul, "Be quiet! And I will tell you what the LORD said to me last night." And he said to him, "Speak on." For us to live in faith we should hear the voice of the Lord above all the noise. Psalms 62:11 God has spoken once, Twice I have heard this: That power belongs to God. Jesus said His own will hear Him and thus they would follow Him, they would not follow another. John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: So many things seek our attention they could seem to be * very important * not that important * a mere distraction However we must let God's Spirit direct us. As we go about our duties and roles,  it is important to listen to the Father and He speaks to us through His Holy Spirit. No wonder the character of the Holy Spirit is patience. We mu...

Psalms 72:18  Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, Who only does wondrous things! We need favours again and again, no one can be by him or her self. We will always need the help and support of one another. Some may take advantage of it, while others will lend the helping hand asking nothing in return understanding that they also would have needs. 1John 3:17 But whoever has this world's goods, and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his heart from him, how does the love of God abide in him? However there are things that others cannot do for us, things that only God Himself can intervene to bring it to pass or to save us from. In those kinds of situations, we don't have to worry anymore, yes, the  inconveniences of man's short falls have no play here. The Father asks nothing in return He gives and does not hold back. He is God.  Acts 17:25 "Nor is He worshiped with men's hands, as though He needed anything, since He gives to all life, breath, and all things...

Psalm 113:4 The LORD is high above all nations, And His glory above the heavens. This morning let us turn our focus to all the Lord has done for us. There is a need to reflect on all our days to see His mighty hand delivering us again and again. Worries would always want to arise, for each day could bring one challenge or the other but know this that the Lord has already given you victory. Glory. Psalm 77:11 I will remember the works of the LORD; Surely I will remember Your wonders of old. The people of Israel had the bad attitude of forgetting God's deliverance and blessings to focus on an immediate challenge or threat. Even when all is well and there is peace they become adulterous flirting with other gods. No wonder why they are destroyed. We cannot err like they did. We have experienced Christ so we know and we win. As a human, you get irritated by people who do not know how to appreciate but are complainers. So, understand that appreciation is a must for us believers, we are g...

John 13:37 Peter said to Him, "Lord, why can I not follow You now? I will lay down my life for Your sake." Especially at the instance of the new birth, many are enthusiastic, filled with so much zeal and willingness to serve, however through a period of time that zeal is not that strong any more. Few are found who are still vibrant, wholly committed and ready to lay down their life. What happened? They faced the reality, the temptations and the test in our present world. * How many can truly leave father, mother, children, friends, family and follow? * How many can do without self esteem and prestige? * How many can say NO to mammon? * How many have truly killed the flesh and all its lust? * How many have studied to show themselves approved, that they would not be easily turned left or right. * How many are humble enough to correct their errors and make amends even if they have erred in their earlier teachings and lifestyle? * How many can submit totally to the Holy Spirit? ....

2 Thessalonians 2:10 He will use every kind of evil deception to fool those on their way to destruction, because they refuse to love and accept the truth that would save them. Matthew 18:14  "Even so it is not the will of your Father who is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish. This has been a great stumbling block to most people. They wonder and feel that God selects who He saves and abandons others to perish. However this is not true. We must understand the man God created: Genesis 1:26-27 Then God said, “Let us make human beings in our image, to be like us. They will reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, the livestock, all the wild animals on the earth, and the small animals that scurry along the ground.” So God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. This is a being made in God's type! We have the power of CHOICE. Joshua 24:15 "And if it seems evil to you to serve the...

Matthew 27:51 And behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; and the earth quaked, and the rocks were split, One significance of Christ's death is the torn veil. The cover to the holiest of all (Hebrews 9:7-15) was removed for the price of the blood that had been paid once and for all. The liberty that allows us to come boldly to the throne of grace to obtain grace. For Christ had paid the full price. Hebrews 9:12 Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood He entered the Most Holy Place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption. Many still desire to return to the veil, the desire to remain in bondage, yes, for the way they live their lives and the attitude they possess shows that they do not want to be accountable, they say, "oh let us not go through the veil that we may not die". Matthew 16:25 "For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. We account to God, ...
