Trust in The Lord

Trust In The Lord.

“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.” Proverbs 3:5-6 (KJV)

Trust in the Lord in everything that you do daily and consistently.

Don’t route some issue through God and use your discretion for others.

Total dependence on God is what you need in all that you do 

Sometimes we assume that some issues are just routine hence we do not need God in such matters, for example, what should I eat today for breakfast, lunch, and dinner 

“Asking God for such mundane things? I hear you!!!”

Trust God in all things

Consult God on all issues of your life.

Depend on Him for all guidance in all that you do.

Nothing is too high or too small for God and you to have a conversation together. 

Walking and working with God in all that you do is His delight and yours also.

“Get insurance with GOD and do a good deed,  settle down and stick to your last. Keep company with GOD,  get in on the best. Open up before God, keep nothing back;  he’ll do whatever needs to be done: He’ll validate your life in the clear light of day  and stamp you with approval at high noon.” Psalm 37:4-6   (MSG)

Don’t depend only on your five natural senses to determine all you do.

“Trust in the Lord completely, and do not rely on your own opinions.  With all your heart rely on him to guide you, and he will lead you in every decision you make. Become intimate with him in whatever you do,  and he will lead you wherever you go. Don’t think for a moment that you know it all” Proverbs 3:5-6 (TPT)

Trust In The Lord Completely.

Jesus Never Fails

Jesus Never Fails.

“Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.” Hebrews 13:5 KJV

“I put my hands in your hands O Lord, I cannot fail for Jesus Never Fails.”

All that you are doing and you have fully committed to the Lord will not fail.

He says He will never leave you nor forsake you.

“I will never leave you alone, never! And I will not loosen my grip on your life!”

“I will extol thee, O LORD; for thou hast lifted me up, and hast not made my foes to rejoice over me. O LORD my God, I cried unto thee, and thou hast healed me.” Psalm 30:1-2 (KJV)

No matter what challenge you are facing, remember HE is the one holding your hand, He will not lose the grip on your life. 

Don’t be discouraged.

Sing and read this chorus to your self again and again.

“I put my hands in your hands O Lord, I cannot fail for Jesus Never Fails.”

Jesus Never Fails. 

From Within

From Within

“For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,  Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:  All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.” Mark 7:21-23  (KJV)

What is coming from your heart?

Check your heart and ensure that these types of thoughts outlined in the above verses do not emanate from there.

As you walk and work daily with God, do not allow what your five senses pick up naturally to generate these thoughts from within you.

“Evil originates from inside a person. Coming out of a human heart are evil schemes, sexual immorality, theft, murder,  adultery, greed, wickedness, treachery, debauchery, jealousy, slander, arrogance,  and recklessness.  All these corrupt things emerge from within and constantly pollute a person.” Mark 7:21-23  (TPT)

Let the  Holy Spirit guide you and dominate your thoughts with things from the God.

“ So keep your thoughts continually fixed on all that is authentic and real, honorable and admirable, beautiful and respectful, pure and holy, merciful and kind. And fasten your thoughts on every glorious work of God, praising him always.” Philippians 4:8 (TPT)

As you live your victorious Christian life today make sure that none of those toxic things come from within.

What is coming out of your heart?

Be Still

Be still.

“Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.” Psalm 46:10 (KJV)

Take a moment today to think deeper, longer and more thoroughly about who God is to You?.

Ask yourself to slow down a bit for some minutes and ponder on the question again who is God to You ?.

How you perceive Him in your thoughts and understanding guides you in actually realizing how you should worship and reverence Him in your heart daily.

We live in a very very busy world today, and technology has dramatically helped to present us with several alternative channels that we could guide our thoughts to in one minute. 

“Let be and be still, and know (recognize and understand) that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations! I will be exalted in the earth!”   (AMPC)

Recognize and understand who God is in the midst of your daily choices. 

With the proper understanding and revelation of who God is to you helps you to continuously have a successful fulfillment of all the life’s assignments that confront you daily. 

“I will meditate on Your precepts And [thoughtfully] regard Your ways [the path of life established by Your precepts].” Psalm 119:15 (AMP)

Create time today in spite of the numerous things demanding for your attention at the same time to examine God’s word that speaks about you and the choices you make. 

“But Jesus often slipped away from them and went into the wilderness to pray.” Luke 5:16 (TPT)

Emulate our Lord Jesus Christ, create time to be in God’s presence even in the midst of your busy schedule.

Then you will see more the awesomeness and the unfailing love of God that you belong to.

No matter the situation you will be able to say like the Apostle Paul:

 “For God’s angel visited me last night, the angel of my God, the God I passionately serve. He came and stood in front of me” Acts 27:23 (TPT)

Be still.

Double Life ?

Deceitful life is not good. 

Don’t live one day further living a double life of being a saint and a sinner. Self Deception keeps telling you that nobody will know. 

Indeed you are just being merely foolish. 

God clearly states that whatever a man/ woman sows you will reap.

 By now you should know that the sin you do secretly and hide will one day destroy you. 

You go to church and do all the activities, and they call you Brother or Sister in Christ 

Are You?

Sin like the Bible describes it is stolen waters, and it’s sweet but later it will give you a bitter aftertaste that lasts much longer than the initial sweet taste. 

Stop rationalizing sin and searing your conscience that others do it too.

  The fact that you have not been caught until now is not an excuse to do it one more time. 

As you read this piece, know that what you consider as hidden and unknown is plain and clear before God and it has a judgment waiting. 

Make up your mind not to yield to that in one more time.

 Call upon God.

 As you sincerely say NO to sin and ask HIM to help you, 

He will surely help you. 

Remember He created you as an overcomer and that’s the exact way you should live daily. 

You are more than a conqueror through the Grace of God, and you can stop living a double life.

Seventy times seven

Seventy times seven

“ Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Till seven times? Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.” Matthew 18:21-22 (KJV) 

This figure sounds familiar? 

We all know about it.

How often do you practice it?

Forgiveness is one of the critical issues in the kingdom and as a real child of God how do you really fare on this?

We all remember “The Parable of the Unmerciful Servant” Matthew 18:21-35

As you have received forgiveness from God, do the same today, tomorrow and every day of your life.

Forgive others.

Yes, they have offended you,

 Let it go. 

How many times has that person really offended you? 

Is it up to Seventy Times Seven?

Release them today.

“Forgive us the wrongs we have done as we release forgiveness to those who have wronged us.” Matthew 6:12 (TPT)

How many times do you forgive those who wrong you?

Seventy times seven
