NEW EVERY MORNING

-

Lamentations 3:23

[They are] new every morning: great [is] thy faithfulness.


Let us look at God's hand at work for His children through scriptures:


To cross the red sea, the rod is stretched over the sea and it parted.


Exodus 14:21

And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD caused the sea to go [back] by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry [land], and the waters were divided.


To cross the Jordan four priests had to carry the ark into the water, immediately they did this, the water stopped flowing.


Joshua 3:17

And the priests that bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD stood firm on dry ground in the midst of Jordan, and all the Israelites passed over on dry ground, until all the people were passed clean over Jordan.


To bring down the wall of Jericho they had to walk round the city seven times then ended with a loud noise and sound of trumpets.


For Jehoshaphat to win the battle musicians had to lead the army with singing.


For Hezekiah not a single arrow entered the city for Sennacherib to be defeated.


2Kings 19:35

And it came to pass that night, that the angel of the LORD went out, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians an hundred fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they [were] all dead corpses.


We see from scriptures that there are many ways God can decide to do His miracles and He is not limited to one method or sign.


The Apostles:


* Some were healed by contact with their mantle.


* Some were healed by contact with their shadow


* Some were healed by laying on of hands


* Some were healed by spoken word alone


We need to be careful not to rely on the elements but on the God who actually brought it to pass.


In this we see many who err:


* selling of anointed water

* selling of anointed oil

* selling of healing scriptures

* selling of healing mantles

* and so many idolatrous or money driven "elementalism".


Thus Peter said:


Acts 8:20

But Peter said unto him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.


These things remain constant though:


* Prayer

* The Word

*Worship

* Faith


The Lord's angels are still on assignment, the Lord is not short on ways to keep doing His miracles for us.


Don't let anyone cage you with their imagination or keep you bound in the elements, your focus should be on the God of the miracles, for above that need of yours is your relationship with Him.


Thus like Paul we should say:


Philippians 3:8

Yes, everything else is worthless when compared with the infinite value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have discarded everything else, counting it all as garbage, so that I could gain Christ.


For we should not just wait for drops or handouts, NO, as a member of the family we get from the source. Selah


Ephesians 1:5

God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure.


Really great is His Faithfulness. Give Him praise this morning.


Don't leave His presence.


The miracles are here.


He calls us blessed.


Love

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
