NOT HIGHLY THAN . . .

NOT HIGHLY THAN . . .

Romans 12:3
 For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.

We are privileged to be called God's own. That is if we have accepted Him. What we received and became at conversion is so great we really cannot take it lightly.

Yet we grow everyday from the point of taking spiritual milk till when we attain maturity, then we begin to eat spiritual meat.

1Peter 2:2
as newborn babes, desire the pure milk of the word, that you may grow thereby,

Hebrews 5:13
For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is a babe.
 But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

So believers grow in the knowledge of God, having revelations and doing exploits.

In all these, we always need to remember that we are man and He is God. Yes He is Father and we are sons, we must never go besides ourselves, making ourselves more highly than we ought to.

Malachi 1:6
"A son honors his father, and a servant his master. If then I am the Father, where is My honour

Always remember that the higher we go the more battles we must have fought and won.

Maturity brings about responsibility, do not get carried away.

You don't need to seek distractions, they are everywhere coming with different packages, styles and forms.

So no matter how much exploits the Lord permits us to achieve we must never loose focus of who receives the glory. Selah!

May the Lord keep us the way He want us to be.

May we not think ourselves higher than we ought to think.

May we display and enjoy the full measure of the glory, God has given us.

We will not be distracted.

We will yet do more exploits

Halleluyah.

God bless you.

Love
@ the watcher.

DO YOU STILL SEE?

-
Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry. It may have been easy when we first believed, to visualize the promises. We reach out with zeal, loving God, seeking to do exploits. That was when we first believed, just as Jesus said: John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." When we become born again we see God's kingdom, our spirit man is reborn and we count the flesh as nothing. Then time passes by, we are in the world, all its distractions, temptations, responsibilities, challenges and so on begin to reveal themselves. The question then is: * Can we still see heaven? John 3:3 * Are we still zealous? John 2:17 * Are we continuing in those things? Acts 2:42 * Are we walking in love? 1John 4:7 or Has the cares and worries of life and service ta

DO UNTO OTHERS . . .

-
Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. It is hypocritical of us to expect people to stand with us when we are experiencing challenges yet when we see others face their own challenges, we begin to imagine what they must have done wrong or maybe they annoyed God or did one evil or the other instead of reaching out to help as we would desire others to do for us. The same thing goes for prosperity, when the Lord opens a door for us and we have abundance of wealth or a breakthrough we expect others to rejoice with us, more so, some would even find it hard to give to others. What is our reaction when someone else gets this breakthrough, do we get suddenly suspicious without reason. Do we expect the person to reach out to us? It is better to stay on the side of encouragement than to sit as a judge or prosecutor. Jesus said, Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same

MY YEAR OF FULFILMENT

-
Psalms 57:2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. We just finished the book of 1Samuel, in this book we see the cry of Israel for a king and how God raised Saul to rule them. We also saw how Saul disobeyed God and lost kingship for himself and his generation. He did not stop there, he went on to seek for the death of David, whom he saw as the next heir of the throne. In chapter 31, the last chapter, we see how Saul and all his sons and men were killed, it was tragic, however it was as a sign of relief for David. We could go on counting all the struggles and difficulties we faced in the past year. No, we should not, we should begin to look at all the positives, remembering all the good things God has done for us. If He promised it, He will do it and that is what we hold onto as we go through this year. Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. This is the year of fulfilment, and
