Come with us, and we will do you good

And Moses said to Hobab son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses’ father-in-law, We are journeying to the place of which the Lord said, I will give it to you. Come with us, and we will do you good, for the Lord has promised good concerning Israel. Numbers 10:29 (AMPC)

Mosses shared the good news of the kingdom that God has promised him and the children of Israel with his father-in-law also called Jethro in the Bible.

Do you share the good news of the kingdom with your family members?

Don’t just share the news about politics, the economy and the latest trends on the social media, please tell them about the Blessings in the kingdom.

Observe the words of Mosses as he witnessed about the good the Lord has promised them.

Today let the unsaved around you know about the good things God has done for you and more great stuff HE will still do.

Present the gospel as good news.

Jesus emphasis was about the kingdom His father has promised those who accept Him as their Lord and Savior.

Use every opportunity you have to win souls to Christ especially your family members and those your close associates.

The Bible classifies you as a wise person when you allow the Holy Spirit to use you in bringing people into the kingdom of God.

“The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; he that winneth souls is wise.” Proverbs 11:30 (KJV) 

Today look around you and tell those close to you and are not yet saved that “We’re marching to the place about which GOD promised, ‘I’ll give it to you.’ Come with us; we’ll treat you well. GOD has promised good things for Israel.”

Come with us, and we will do you good.

Therefore was he hired, that I should be afraid

Therefore was he hired, that I should be afraid

“Therefore was he hired, that I should be afraid, and do so, and sin, and that they might have matter for an evil report, that they might reproach me. My God, think thou upon Tobiah and Sanballat according to these their works, and on the prophetess Noadiah, and the rest of the prophets, that would have put me in fear. So the wall was finished …….” Nehemiah 6:12-15

Don’t allow anybody to cause you to be afraid.

Don’t allow any situation or circumstances to speak fear into you.

The age-long strategy of the enemy to cause your defeat is to get fear into you.

Please reject fear in any shape and form 

Nehemiah in the above scriptures was entirely in the will of God carrying out his given assignment, and the opposition came to cause him to fear.  

Note that fear not only has the tendency to paralyze the work but it also can cause you to sin. 

“He was hired that I should be made afraid and do as he said and sin,”

Nehemiah focused on what God has told him to do and refused to be distracted.

Set your eyes only on what God has given you to do and be not afraid.

“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” 2 Timothy 1:7

Nehemiah was unstoppable.

He completed his assignment.

You are unstoppable too.

You will complete your assignment.

Don’t be afraid.

There is no other God that can deliver after this sort.

There is no other God that can deliver after this sort.

“Then Nebuchadnezzar spake, and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the king’s word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God. Therefore I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that can deliver after this sort.  Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, in the province of Babylon.”  Daniel 3:28-30 (KJV)

Many believers like to sing the song: “there is no other God” as praise and testimony to the glory of God which is a great thing to do.

However, do we often remember that such a great song and testimony came out from God’s children who refused to neither bow nor compromise with any other thing that tended to compare and compete itself with God?

You to can conquer and emerge victorious in that challenging situation you are facing as you are encouraged by the scriptures above. 

When you stand true, courageous and faithful to God, the adversary will be compelled by your victory to declare like king Nebuchadnezzar had to say when he saw the fourth man appeared in the fire that did not touch or even hurt the three servants of God that trusted in HIM.

Be reminded today that whatsoever you are going through today stand strong like these heroes of the faith did and you will triumphantly sing that song of praise. HE is with you today as He was with them then.

“From East to west no other God From North to South there is no other God.”

Your assured victory in what you are going through now will shortly cause men to testify and praise God with you.

Your promotion like those of  Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego  is on its way 

There is no other God that can deliver after this sort.

But Amnon had a friend

But Amnon had a friend

But Amnon had a friend, whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David’s brother: and Jonadab was a very subtil man. 1 Samuel 13:3 (KJV)  

What kind of friend do you have that consistently speak into your life?

Amnon one of King David’s sons had a “bestie” who was exceptionally streetwise. He confided in him he gave him a counsel that initially appeared smart, but at the end, it led to his death.

Watch out today that you are not surrounding yourself with people that appear popular and very sociable but their counsel for you may lead to your destruction. 

Don’t fall into the peer pressure of hanging out with people that will give you counsel that will kill your God-given dreams.

 “Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm.” Proverbs 13:20

Check out the antecedents of who speaks into your life.

Who are those who get your ear’s attention?

“So stop fooling yourselves! Evil companions will corrupt good morals and character “ 1 Corinthians 15:33 (TPT)

Watch out for the Jonadab around you and never take their counsel 

“ How well God must like you-you don’t hang out at Sin Saloon, you don’t slink along Dead-End Road. You don’t go to Smart-Mouth College.” Psalm 1:1 (MSG)

Look for friends like Ruth to Naomi, Jonathan to David and Paul to Philemon.

What type of friend is speaking into your life today?

For thy name’s sake lead me, and guide me.

“For thou art, my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name’s sake lead me, and guide me.” Psalm 31:3 

Indeed, God holds you firm and secure, and because of that you rest assured of HIS ability to watch over you and protect you at all times.

However, we need to know that all the moves we make are genuinely for His name’s sake.

The Psalmist knew that it’s about honoring God and doing everything because of God that he is assured of God’s all-around protection. 

Can you say the same about all the assignments that you are doing today that it’s right for HIM?

Did God approve all your plans and the processes you are taking in carrying them out?

Is it about God or you?

Be reminded today that it is when you are doing those things that God has sent you that you can confidently claim the promise guaranteeing your all-around protection.  

“And he said, Come with me, and see my zeal for the LORD. ……” 2 Kings 10:16

Jehu at that point in his life was so sure he was carrying out God’s agenda.

Are all your actions (programs and activities) approved of God?

“You’re my cave to hide in, my cliff to climb. Be my safe leader, be my true mountain guide. Free me from hidden traps;  I want to hide in you. I’ve put my life in your hands. You won’t drop me. You’ll never let me down.” Psalm 31:3-5 (MSG)

HIS all-round protection is yours as long as you are doing what HE has assigned you to do.

Hitherto hath the LORD helped us.

Hitherto hath the LORD helped us.

Then Samuel took a stone, and set it between Mizpeh and Shen, and called the name of it Ebenezer, saying, Hitherto hath the LORD helped us. 1 Samuel 7:12(KJV) 

What are you using today as memory blocks of the significant events in your life?

In the above Scripture, Samuel used that stone as a reminder to Israel of the great deliverance God gave them from their enemies.

Earlier Jacob and Joshua had also set up monuments to remember their encounters with God.

Today you may not be setting up physical monuments to commemorate events in your life but what have you set up in your mind about some past issues in your life?

As your mind occasionally roams your past yield the pains and the joys that may come up entirely over to God.

The early patriarchs of faith used those monuments to move the people and the nation forward to achieve their God-given destiny.

As you reflect on significant milestones in your life ensure that your memory of those events is from God’s correct perspective of the development not solely on your human interpretation. 

Love and forgiveness must essentially surround the memories in our lives.  

UnForgiveness and hatred will continuously eat away your energy and make God’s ultimate purpose of making all those events that have happened in your life to work together for your good to be longer.  

As you reflect on the past and evaluate today and position yourself for tomorrow, please do so from God’s perspective.

“Love never dies. Inspired speech will be over some day; praying in tongues will end; understanding will reach its limit. We know only a portion of the truth, and what we say about God is always incomplete. But when the Complete arrives, our incompletes will be canceled. When I was an infant at my mother’s breast, I gurgled and cooed like any infant. When I grew up, I left those infant ways for good.

 We don’t yet see things. We’re squinting in a fog, peering through a mist. But it won’t be long before the weather clears and the sun shines bright! We’ll see it all then, see it all as clearly as God sees us, knowing him directly just as he knows us!” 1 Corinthians 13:9-12 (MSG)

As a nation, group or individual allow the LOVE of God to marinate your memory of past events, fill your hearts with Peace and Joy today. 

Your Hope based on your real knowledge of HIM gives the assurance that your tomorrow is undoubtedly going to be better.
