THOSE LITTLE THINGS

-

This beautiful day let us remind ourselves NOT to neglect those little things that make up the whole.


Philippians 4:8

Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy--meditate on these things.


The things that matter in this life are a collection of little things we do that really do matter. Putting them all together builds up the glorious work we have or the great person we become.


A great rock can be brought down by continually chopping off small pieces. Same way a great house is built by adding on little bricks.


Let us not drop those "little things"


* discipline

* good routines

* prayers

* efforts

* readings

* prayers

* study of the word

* worship

* show of love

* encouragement

* planning

* investments

* sowing/planting

* advice

* counselling

* givings

* teaching

* tongues

* prophesying

* meditation

* fasting

* patience

* sufferings

* retreat . . .

   and so on


they add up to make the bigger success we achieve.


Job 8:7

Though your beginning was small, yet your latter end would increase abundantly.


Isaiah 60:22

A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation. I, the LORD, will hasten it in its time."


Galatians 6:9

And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.


For most people end up doing nothing because they are waiting for that big opportunity, or that supernatural. No believer, it is all the little things you do daily that add up to that great thing.


Revelation 20:12

I saw the dead, both great and small, standing before God’s throne. And the books were opened, including the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to what they had done, as recorded in the books.

(N/B: The most important book is in verse 15)


See, there are special programmes where there is teaching, retreat or time out to refresh, truly miracles and great revelations is a must, it is just how it is because the Lord said He is in our midst, however all those jumbo crusades where someone tells you who is already a believer to come to receive miracles, financial breakthrough, children, money, great job, visa etc. Hello! Crusades are for unbelievers to return to Christ, when miracles are permitted by the Heavenly Father there, it is for those who do not believe to see and believe. GROW UP!


Remember what Christ told Thomas:


John 20:29

Then Jesus told him, “You believe because you have seen me. Blessed are those who believe without seeing me.”


So stop the charade, stop the going round in circles, let people stop pushing you here and there. When the Lord is right there with You.


John 17:3

And this is the way to have eternal life—to know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, the one you sent to earth.


John 16:23-24

At that time you won’t need to ask me for anything. I tell you the truth, you will ask the Father directly, and he will grant your request because you use my name.

You haven’t done this before. Ask, using my name, and you will receive, and you will have abundant joy.


(IF YOU ARE A BELIEVER YOU HAVE DIRECT ACCESS TO THE HEAVENLY FATHER!)


LISTEN:


John 14:17

He is the Holy Spirit, who leads into all truth. The world cannot receive him, because it isn’t looking for him and doesn’t recognize him. But you know him, because he lives with you now and later will be in you.


Understand believer, He lives in You!


By the power of Jesus the Christ we will not get tired, we will be fervent in season and out of season.


The Holy Spirit will take over us and we will show forth God's glory.


We will keep moving forward.


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
