God knows your life.
“For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.” Ps. 1:6(KJV).
Who are your friends and what are you doing?
What do you talk about with your friends?
What does your typical day consist of?
Psalm 1 tells us about two kinds of people.
The Righteous and the Ungodly.
Where do you belong?
“But how different it is for the righteous!
The Lord embraces their paths as they move forward, while the way of the wicked leads only to doom.” Psalm 1:6(TPT)
Which path are you on?
Are you doing what you don’t really like?
Then, why do you keep doing what you know is not according to God’s will?
God knows everything.
He promised you eternal life.
He knows where He wants you to be.
Are you part of the way that will perish?
Or are you on the flourishing path?
Application to the Christian life:
Repent and submit yourself to God.
Walk on His way.

Fear not.
“Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.” Matt. 10:31 (KJV).
Are you experiencing dark times?
Wondering What will happen next?
Whatever happens in your life:
God is aware of it.
He even knows what is going to happen next.
God cares for everything.
He cares for the animals, the plants, and even for you.
What is extraordinary is that He cares far more for you than He cares for the animals or plants.
“Fear not!” is the most repeated command in the Bible.
In fact, it’s been said that there are 366 “Fear not” in the Bible
One “Fear not” for every day of the year!
Including the leap year.!!
If you do what you need to do, you do not have to be worried or be afraid about anything.
God will guide you so that the end will be good.
Be reminded, “Fear not”…
Trust God’s loving presence.
You are not alone.
He Daily watches over You.

Find your rest in Jesus.
“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Matt. 11:28 (KJV).

Too much work for too little pay?
It seems like your friends have a ball of a time.

In thy name done many wonderful works?
“Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? And in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.” Matt. 7:22(KJV).
How do you talk to your friends when you tell them about Jesus?
Do you want them to see how much you know?
Do you want them to see what a wonderful person you are?
Don’t get carried away with your wonderful works.
Are you doing them according to God’s command?
What is your motive for doing them?
“Then he said to them, “You like to appear righteous in public, but God knows your hearts. What this world honors is detestable in the sight of God.”
Luke 16:15(NLT)
It is not your Wonderful works that God sees.
God expects obedience.
He expects us to follow Him.
God told Moses to talk to the rock to give water.
Moses was upset because of the people’s behavior.
He hit the rock.
Did the water come out?
Yes.
Was he obedient?
Did he do it the way God told him to do it?
No. ( Numbers 20:12. KJV).
The result was according to the word of God.
However, Moses never entered the promised land.
Jesus obeyed God in all things.
Jesus sought to please God in all His works.
Don’t do stuff to please impress and please people.
Let your wonderful works come from God.
Follow Jesus, the Author, and Finisher of our Faith.
Application to the Christian life:
Daily.
Serve God with a pure heart.
Let the Holy Spirit guide you.

He has risen, just as He said!
“He is not here; He has risen, just as He said! Come, see the place where He lay.” Matthew 28:6(NIV)
Right from creation, everything happened, just as He said.
God said let there be in Genesis 1, and it has been so till today.
In the scriptures, God has taught us in so many ways that we have to say what we believe in our hearts, and we see it come to pass.
It’s significant to remember in this season of celebrating the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus that this Resurrection happened :
He has risen, just as He said!
What are you saying today, Especially about your destiny?
Jesus spoke about what His purpose in life was about.
At every point, He confessed what HIS Father had said about Him.
Again the great takeaway from the just-concluded Easter season is:
It all happened as HE said it would.
Say words that are in line with your purpose in life.
No matter the challenges you face.
Say only His words that line up with your life.
Never speak negatively about your purpose in life.
Make positive confessions at all times.
Remember the Shunammite woman? (2Kings 4)
She experienced the Resurrection of her son.
Jesus, Himself said positive words about the dead Lazarus.
He was brought back to life.
Whatever appeared dead in your situation, speak life to it in Jesus’s name.
The path to the cross was filled with purposeful challenges.
At each point, Jesus spoke precisely what was required.
During the temptation:
He told satan that man shall not live by bread alone but by the word of God.
He emphasized and encouraged us to speak to our destiny.
No matter the area of your life, look for the word of God and say it over the situation.
In healing, say By His stripes, you are healed.
He wishes above all that you are healthy and prosperous.
That’s what you should always say to yourself.
