TAKE ACTION

-

Joshua 18:2-3

But there remained seven tribes who had not yet been allotted their grants of land.

Then Joshua asked them, “How long are you going to wait before taking possession of the remaining land the Lord, the God of your ancestors, has given to you?


It is one thing to receive the promise, it is another to hear instructions concerning the promise and yet another to TAKE ACTION.


Taking action is where most people fail. You have prayed long, studied the word to get full clarification, however, unless you take action nothing happens.


Imagine Noah receiving the instructions concerning the ark and did not start building. What of Abraham receiving the instruction concerning relocating, what if he did not not take action?


Moses received instructions, he took action for all his excuses were dispelled by God, for God had taken care of it.


It got to a time God had to command him to move.


Exodus 14:15

Then the Lord said to Moses, “Why are you crying out to me? Tell the people to get moving!


Joshua asked the remaining seven tribes:


"  . . . How long are you going to wait before taking possession of the remaining land the Lord, the God of your ancestors, has given to you?


Do you hear God asking you the same today?


How long will you remain in that situation. Is it not time to take action?


Listen if you are not clear about it, begin to ask the Lord today. However, you must be patient enough to listen so as to know when to take action.


While God lived with us here on earth in Christ Jesus, He was always on the move. He knew the essence of time, so He didn't waste it.


John 14:31

but I will do what the Father requires of me, so that the world will know that I love the Father. Come, let’s be going.


Don't you think it is time to move? To take that next step, to move to the next level, next assignment.


There are some of us still holding on to bad characters and habits that we have to let go of, they might very well be the weight that keeps us down.


You may be fit in the physical body but sick in the spirit. Receive your healing today!


No one may be holding you down, you may very well be your own obstacle.


As you pray today, ask God what action(s) you need to take today, this week, this month or this year.


You have been in so many programs, crusade, online spiritual activities, when will you begin to give to your generation, even in your household, what is your spiritual impact?


When will you arise and begin to do? It is not only about asking, asking and asking, when do you begin to give?


Child of God, take action!


Fight fear, laziness, procrastinations and distractions. Stop leaning on man. Lean on God.


We arise today, we take action.


So help us Good Lord.


PRAYER 

Loving Father, raise me up with Your Mighty Right Hand, make it clear to me and cause me to take those good actions today. You are interested in the branches that bear fruit to prune us to bear more fruit, here am I Lord, make me fruitful, I submit totally to You Dear Lord. Glory to Your name Lord forevermore.


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
