GOD'S WISDOM (a reminder)

-
Ecclesiastes 12:12
 And further, my son, be admonished by these. Of making many books there is no end, and much study is wearisome to the flesh

 It has been observed that as you grow to the zenith of academics your region of expertise begins to narrow down, you have areas of specialization.

One thing is fact, there is no end to learning for man, when you think you know so much on a matter someone else arrives and dwarfs or levels your knowledge.

A man can make so much noise on an issue but someone else comes and counter his clams.

Proverbs 18:17
The first one to plead his cause seems right, until his neighbor comes and examines him.

One still remaineth true and infllable and that is the call of God to every heart and mind and the evidence of His presence all around us.

You may argue or try to use your human instinct to explain it, yet it will ellude you.

The workings of God and His salvation plan by coming to earth in human form in the person of His Son further to the revelation and presence of Himself as the Holy Spirit.
This can not be explained academically or by religion or any form of human wisdom but bases on belief in the scriptures.

1Corinthians 1:18-19
 For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
For it is written: "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent."

1Corinthians 2:14
 But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned

We should therefore be grateful to God who granted us (if you are born again) the grace to believe this truth thereby making sure of eternal life.

John 3:18
"He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

As we worship God for this privilege let us remember to:

* always be in communication with the Father through His Spirit.

* show forth His character of love.

* reach out to others who are yet to escape condemnation.

* fulfil our roles as brethren.

* be examples at work, home, or leisure.

He calls us 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
