APPRECIATE GOD'S LOVE

-

Psalms 143:8

Cause me to hear Your loving-kindness in the morning, for I do trust in You; cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to You.


Do you know that God loves you? Do you think about it and carry that consciousness?


Before your mind goes to worries or anything you think the Lord has not done for you, first remember that you:


* are alive today

* are in good health

* have food and can eat

* have sense organs and can use them

* have people around us, and we can communicate with them

* have something to act on (even worry about)

* are saved through His Grace in Christ Jesus

* can come boldly to His throne of grace (Hebrews 4:16)


These we feel are basic things, but wait .  .  .


What if you don't have them?


Would you be longing for those other things you think you lack? Selah


We could go on to talk of family, source of income and so on or do we talk of our eternal insurance.


Hebrews 13:15

By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name. 


Can we take the day to cherish God's love. It doesn't have to be all about requests all the time.


Revelation 19:6

And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.


Let us make time to think of all he has done for us.


And further more what He did not allow to happen to us.


Listen, as you are complaining of those earthly things you think the Lord has done for you some believers like you are standing trials for their faith in different parts of the world.


Why not take this time to intercede for them. Come off you awhile and think of other believers awhile.


What of those who have not received the free salvation God has given in His Son. Pray for them today.


Listen God loves you and He has blessed you, cherish His love and give Him praise today.


Glory to God.


PRAYER 

Loving Father, I know You love me and have blessed me in all things. Thank You Lord, I intercede for those facing trails and persecution for their faith in You, Lord give them victory and peace. Glory to Your name Lord forevermore.


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
