God answers

-
John 14:13
And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

Psalm 66:19
 But certainly God has heard me; He has attended to the voice of my prayer.

There are times we feel God is taking His time. We hear our self say things like, I have been waiting on the Lord for this and for that. It seems to us that the Lord desires that we should pray, pray and pray before we get that which we desire.

We may not be able to explain why some things do delay, or do not actually come to pass, the moment we declare them. One thing is sure though:

1Peter 2:2b
  but now you have come back to him who keeps watch over your souls.

Psalm 34:7
 The angel of the Lord is ever watching over those who have fear of him, to keep them safe.

We cannot say that there is anytime we pray and God do not answer. What did He say? Was it a dialogue or a monologue?

Can we recall those times we called out silently to God in a moment of pain or distress and suddenly all became calm, the pain goes away, the sickness is gone or that trouble is no longer a threat?

We suddenly forget that it was the hand of the lord that worked it out for us. His angels responded to our inner plea and worked out that miracle.

It could be so much a relieve that we try to explain it by a physical means. No, it was God's hands that worked it.

That

* joy the blurred out your depression
* accident that was averted
* shame that could have broken you
* sickness that would have led to death
* loved one that would have been a victim
* provision that came
* peace that filled your mind
* good news that suddenly came
* storm that finally became calm
* temptation the Lord suddenly made a way to escape from

The Lord hears us and He does not take lightly our cry to Him, He guards our spirit with so much love.

Proverbs 20:27
 The Lord keeps watch over the spirit of man, searching all the deepest parts of the body.

He dosen't ignore us, He is always there when we need Him.

May we never waver in faith and may nothing be strong enough to make us faint.

Keep praying, keep giving thanks. Stay in the Word.

The Lord has got you. All is well.

Do have a splendid week.

Pray, worship and rejoice with the brethren today

We are blessed.

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
