AT LAST

-

Exodus 12:51

On that very day the Lord brought the people of Israel out of the land of Egypt like an army.


No matter how long the bondage has been, your deliverance is here!


Exodus 12:31-33,50

Pharaoh sent for Moses and Aaron during the night. “Get out!” he ordered. “Leave my people—and take the rest of the Israelites with you! Go and worship the Lord as you have requested.

Take your flocks and herds, as you said, and be gone. Go, but bless me as you leave.”

All the Egyptians urged the people of Israel to get out of the land as quickly as possible, for they thought, “We will all die!”

On that very day the Lord brought the people of Israel out of the land of Egypt like an army.


The Lord knows how to shut the enemy up!


When the Lord makes His promises to you, it looks like a dream, when it is fulfilled it is bewildering.


Psalms 126:1-3

When the Lord brought back his exiles to Jerusalem, it was like a dream!

We were filled with laughter, and we sang for joy. 

And the other nations said, 

“What amazing things the Lord has done for them.”

Yes, the Lord has done amazing things for us! 

What joy!


We shout: "at last", however we must not get carried away, for most people get delivered by the Lord but want to continue on their own, No, continue with the One who set you free.


It is one thing to be delivered, it is another to be truly free. We must let go of the mental slavery to enjoy the liberty that we have in our freedom.


That is why Christ said:


John 8:36

So if the Son sets you free, you are truly free.


What is still holding us bound? Is it an ideology, a fear, a habit, an ailment, whatever it is. We say "at last", the Lord has set us free and we are free indeed.


Glory to God forevermore.


We win.


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

TRADE WISELY

-
Isaiah 40:31 But those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint. Many have traded their joy chasing over material things and the pleasures and satisfaction of the world. The question is "is it worth it?". Yes we must earn, work and keep improving day after day but we must remember "nothing is free". We must pay a price. So, what are we ready to sacrifice? Some have sacrificed, their: * health * peace of mind * children * marriage * calling * ministry * good name All in the bid to get material things. 2Timothy 4:10 for Demas has forsaken me, having loved this present world, and has departed for Thessalonica-- Crescens for Galatia, Titus for Dalmatia. There is always a process, we would get into trouble when we try to use the shortcut, to get it by all means and immediately. Let us be careful of what exchange we make! Let us ask like J

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
