Chai!! Philip & Andrew, How Could you..? * l'll ask them in Heaven*
John 6: 5-10 reads..
7 Philip answered him, "It would take more than half a year's wages to buy enough bread for each one to have a bite!"
8 Another of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, spoke up, 9 "Here is a boy with five small barley loaves and two small fish, but how far will they go among so many?"
10 Jesus said, "Have the people sit down." There was plenty of grass in that place, and they sat down (about five thousand men were there). 11 Jesus then took the loaves, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted. He did the same with the fish."
Heheh, Philip, Philip, Philip & Andrew, Andrew, Andrew, what is this now? What is the meaning of these questions, what kind of talking is this? ayi... From the above scripture, I can just tell that Philip and Andrew didn't really know who they were with, they had not caught IT yet. They didn't know that the Creator Himself is walking with them. They didn't know that the LIFE Himself is walking with them. They would not have asked such questions at all. How could they ask GOD such questions, Chaaaiiii!
This reminds of this "there are people who say to me, "hey Mapule please pray for me neh" while others say "hey Mapule, you must join your faith with mine and Declare that..." One is asking me to Pray and one is asking me to Declare, there is a huge difference in these 2. Declaring is a high matter and everyone of us should come up to this level. So in this level, we pray and declare (I'll elaborate on this matter some other time, please allow me).
The fact is, even today there are people who are like Philip and Andrew (at that stage of their lives because they eventually came to a level of full knowledge of who they were with). People who know that there is God but He is somewhere up there somewhere. Hey! Not any more! The TRUTH is, people are coming up hither, to a level where they know better, Glory to God! God is now not only with us but in us.
The Holy Spirit in us is the third person of the Trinity/Godhead and He is God, equal to the Father and Son. Hahah! Are you Born Again? If yes them you need to get a chair,sit yourself down then digest this truth today; God is in you.
Aah once you believe this truth, kabayaaa..you'll see what I mean. We can't be asking such question,we just can't. You have God with and in you yet you still ask the Hows & Where's?, what is HOW, what is Where? heheheh, I said 'Come up Hither', know who you are. We are divinely enabled, He is working in us by the Power that is at work in us. Study the Bible for yourself, Know the Word.
So if you are Born Again, you can't be talking like Philip and Andrew here, you just can't! It is against who you have become, Glory to God!
heeeyaaaaa, God Bless you!!

Know Who You are: Refuse Jellyfish Tendencies
"25 I have become its servant by the commission God
gave me to present to you the word of God in its fullness— 26 the mystery
that has been kept hidden for ages and generations, but is now disclosed to the
Lord's people. 27 To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles
the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory." - Colossians 1:25-27
The day we as Christians come to the full knowledge of who
we really are; is the day we'll start living the life that God has prepared for
us. We cant be like a jelly fish, that goes wherever the waves take it to. Refuse the Jellyfish mentality and know who you are and what you have.
The mystery is
revealed to us; this mystery that has glorious riches, heheh. You may ask why
now, why the revelation of this mystery now? Because He wants us to know what
He has freely given to us (the Lord Jesus Christ, who is the Word that was made
flesh). Now we are given this Word in its fullness, aah..that means lacking
nothing: For us to know that we are One with Him, we died and we were raised together
with Him. We are NOT of this world, we are NOT Ordinary.
This mystery being 'Christ in you, the hope of Glory'.
Christ in you, NOT around you, NOT in a church building, Not in the water, Not
in anything else, BUT Christ in you.. Heheh, so the very same Christ who comes
bearing glorious riches, in you..aaah, you are too much. You are loaded, Christ
is Christ, you have divinity in you, you have God in you. Omg!! Take some time
today to meditate on this truth today and if you ever thought you were just a
person nje, it will change all that.
God Bless you!

Step 'N' Slide Music Concert - Not to be Missed!
“For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them” Matthew 18:20.
I might not be singing in a church choir but my love for music especially praise and worship is inexplicable and I thank God that my voice is getting better and better (not by might ...lol). I love music concerts where Christians gather together to praise and worship Him, yes that’s how we have fun or enjoy ourselves BUT the focus is on JESUS, its all about HIM. The best thing is that anything is possible in that ZONE, you cannot go into that ZONE without an expectation, the opening scriptures says it all, He is there..Wow!!, Study the Bible in 2 Chronicles 20: 21..hahah, you see what praise and worship can do for you, it is an expression of your faith. 2 Samuel 6 reads " and David danced before the Lord with all his might;...." you see what I mean...Ooh Glory to God!

Happy New Month!!!!! God is TOO MUCH!!!!!
Jeremiah 17:5-8
5 This is what the LORD says:
"Cursed is the one who trusts in man,
who draws strength from mere flesh
and whose heart turns away from the LORD.
6 That person will be like a bush in the wastelands;
they will not see prosperity when it comes.
They will dwell in the parched places of the desert,
in a salt land where no one lives.
7 "But blessed is the one who trusts in the LORD,
whose confidence is in him.
8 They will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit."
Happy New Month everybody, I am so excited!!! This Grace is Too Much!!! It is the month of October, we are now in the last quarter of the year 2012.
You may want to go back to that small note book where you had enlisted your goals for 2012 and see if you have achieved what you set out to achieve in the beginning of the year. I've just done that and I'm so full of gratitude to God because I see that I'm actually where I never even imagined myself to be, I based my accomplishments on the little things that I wrote on that book but God had greater plans for me. (You see, how we make plans and expect to twist God's arm that He does as we wish instead of finding out what His purpose for our lives is) ahha!.
I'm where I am today and I'm so happy, I'm fulfilled. And the last 3 months heheh, are just too much!! Oh it has been a glorious year of the Word! Let me tell you this, instead of focusing on that small book with my 'goals', I went for my notes where I have written the prophecies that were spoken upon me/my life by my Pastors (MOG and WOG), aah, I'm MADE, that's is why I'm where I never imagined myself to be, it is all by the speed of the Spirit. Glory to God!!!
I have grown so much in every way, I am at another level now. Glory to God!!!!
How about you? Are you at a point where you feel discouraged, confused and you say "oh even this year is about to end and I'm still in the same situation, no change whatsoever" Allow me to help you. Look, we have to get the basics right first; LIFE is Spiritual. There is no LIFE without Jesus/The Word, don't fool yourself. If you say you are a christian but there is no difference between you and the person who is not, I say to you WAKE UP! I have news for you: SEE THE OPENING SCRIPTURE and make a decision now, to be that man that Trusts in the Lord!
You need to come up hither! to a level where all your trust is in the Lord. This is where you know that All Is Well with you because anything is possible to him that believes. Where you know that the One who lives in you is greater than he that lives in the world. That He who begun a great work in you shall perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. That He who has promised is faithful.
Ephesians 3:20 " Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us"
Note this "according to the power that worketh in us"..heheh, this says it all. You are too much, you are loaded with Divine Power. You can still do it, you can still make it, God has enabled you to do, go and do! God is gracious!
Oh boy!!! The last 3 months are for you to dust yourself up and make things happen for yourself, for you to LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE SO BRIGHT, THAT THEY WHO DONT BELIEVE IN OUR LORD JESUS MAY SEE YOUR LIFE AND GLORIFY HIM. OUR LIVES ARE A TESTIMONY!!!!
GOD BLESS YOU!!

Know This!!..It matters what you think and say.
Psalm 15:1-5...
1 LORD, who may dwell in your sacred tent? Who may live on your holy mountain?
2 The one whose walk is blameless, who does what is righteous, who speaks the truth from their heart;
3 whose tongue utters no slander, who does no wrong to a neighbor, and casts no slur on others;
4 who despises a vile person but honors those who fear the LORD; who keeps an oath even when it hurts, and does not change their mind;
5 who lends money to the poor without interest; who does not accept a bribe against the innocent. Whoever does these things will never be shaken. .......................................................................... This is TOO MUCH, heheh aaai.. God Bless you!!!

Rhapsody of Realities: 28-09-12 - Bridle Your Tongue!
(I have to share this with everyone of you, this is a message from the Daily devotional by our MOG (My Other Dad) Pst Chris. This has ministered a lot to me I can't just keep quiet). Please read it below, this is life changing!! Please make up your mind to log into www.rhapsodyofrealities.org
Bridle Your Tongue! · Friday, September 28th · Page Visits (1,811)
Pastor Chris
If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man’s religion is vain (James 1:26). A bridle is a headgear for a horse, and includes a headstall, reins and bit, to give the horse rider control over the direction and speed of the horse. When you put that bit in the horse’s mouth, you direct, and he follows you confidently. When the Scriptures admonish us to bridle the tongue, it means to control your tongue. In James 3:5-6 the Bible says that the tongue can defile the whole body and set on fire the course of nature. The word translated defile means to render inoperative or useless. It means to corrupt the body in such a way that it can’t carry out its function. Your tongue can rob your body of its effectiveness; that’s why it must be tamed. Also, the tongue can set on fire the course of nature; that means the wheel of life; the course of your life. God has set every one of us on the right course for life; for His good purpose, for His will, and for His glory......................................................................................... However, you must be careful not to destroy that course with your tongue; it’s up to you. You’re the one to keep yourself in the course that God has set for you by cultivating a wholesome tongue. There’re things you should say, and there’re things you shouldn’t say. Uttering such words as "I’m broke; the economy is so hard, nothing seems to be working" or "this headache is so severe, in fact, it’s killing me"; is misusing your tongue. Such words are inconsistent with the Word of God, so never utter them. Rather, make confessions of the Word. You should rather say, "I’m prospering in all things; the health and strength of God are manifested in me!"................................................................................................ Your tongue was given to you principally to chart your future and shape your destiny. So bridle your tongue and speak in line with the Word. Even when you joke, don’t joke against the Word. Where you are today in life is a reflection of what you’ve been saying all your life. Create the future you desire! Speak words that are consistent with the glorious life of righteousness, peace, health, wealth and joy that God has made available to you in Christ Jesus................................................................................................................................................. Confession The words that I speak are spirit and life; they’re operative, potent and effectual, charting the course of my life in the direction of God’s divine purpose and destiny for me in peace, joy, fulfilment, health, success and prosperity. Glory to God ............................................................................. f u r t h e r s t u d y: James 3:2; Psalm 50:23 Daily Scripture Reading 1 Year Reading Plan : Isaiah 1-2 ;Ephesians 4:17-5:1-2 2 Year Reading Plan : 2 Timothy 3:1-17; Jeremiah 46

Lunch Time Bible Quiz: What & Who happened here...hahahah!!!!!
This is for us to snack on: We live not by bread alone neh..tltltltltl..
Here is the Question: What & Who happened here?. Can you explain this... hahahhah..try to
(Study the few lines below and tell us the answer please)
ACTS 12:
"5 So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was earnestly praying to God for him.
6 The night before Herod was to bring him to trial, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and sentries stood guard at the entrance.
7 Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him up. "Quick, get up!" he said, and the chains fell off Peter's wrists.
8 Then the angel said to him, "Put on your clothes and sandals." And Peter did so. "Wrap your cloak around you and follow me," the angel told him. 9 Peter followed him out of the prison, but he had no idea that what the angel was doing was really happening; he thought he was seeing a vision. 10 They passed the first and second guards and came to the iron gate leading to the city. It opened for them by itself, and they went through it. When they had walked the length of one street, suddenly the angel left him.
11 Then Peter came to himself and said, "Now I know without a doubt that the Lord has sent his angel and rescued me from Herod's clutches and from everything the Jewish people were hoping would happen."
Can you even begin to imagine this, how about the very situation you are in, what can stop God from doing the very same for you? The very same God that made this happen still is, he can do the same for you. Peter was not expecting this to happen like this BUT he knew that GOD would surely do something (I can bet on that).

Introspection: Come Up Hither! *One of those personal must reads*
Hebrews 11:6 " But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him." *you have to read the whole article then come back to this verse*
It is not everyday that I get this special kind of teaching from the Holy Spirit Himself, in the early hours of the morning. On Tuesday morning, I woke up with this Scripture 2 Chronicles 20:21 in my spirit. I just knew that there was something said about 'Jehoshaphat praising God in the midst of that challenge...' I thought to myself I must thoroughly study the whole chapter to 'get it'. I made an appointment with the Holy Spirit that this morning, I am waking up earlier than usual, so I can spend time on this Word. oooh, as studying this, my whole body was electrified <(is this english? lol), aaah, this teaching has taken me to a new level...now you come join me as you partake into this hey, come up hither. Glory to God!!!
2 Chronicles 20 vs 1-21 summarized, PLEASE STUDY THIS AT YOUR OWN TIME ( USE AMP or NIV versions for ease of understanding).
1 After this, the Moabites and Ammonites with some of the Meunites came to wage war against Jehoshaphat. The Moabites, Ammonites and some Meunites were to fight Jehoshaphat of Judah/Jerusalem. Yeah, he was terrified as you can imagine especially when he is told that they are on their way. Verse 2 "Some people came and told Jehoshaphat, "A vast army is coming against you from Edom, from the other side of the Dead Sea. It is already in Hazezon Tamar" (that is, En Gedi). Vesre 3 "Alarmed, Jehoshaphat resolved to inquire of the LORD, and he proclaimed a fast for all Judah." 4 The people of Judah came together to seek help from the LORD; indeed, they came from every town in Judah to seek him."
Heheh, this man is too much, this man is amazing. In the state of panic, he resolved to enquirer of the Lord. Hahah, can we all be like this, yes please! what would you have done, what would have been your first reaction to this..heheh.. .You see, it matters who you are with, these people were in one accord, their leader proclaimed a fast and they did as told. Who is in your inner circle? Are they people who would have responded this way? do they have the same attitude that you have? do they believe in God? Heheh, examine yourself and the company you keep..
Look at Jehoshaphat's prayer in verse 6 to 12..Aaaaah, *I had to read this 38 because at 1st I was rolling on my bed, groaning...ooh. Ooh this is too much* Do you see the content of this prayer? This is man who knows that God IS, there is just TOO MUCH faith expressed in this prayer. How do you pray, what is the content of your prayer. What would you have said if you were in his shoes?..Hehehe....! And God was please (yeah, faith pleases God), He answered! He spoke through His Prophet:
15 He said: "Listen, King Jehoshaphat and all who live in Judah and Jerusalem! This is what the LORD says to you: 'Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army. For the battle is not yours, but God's. 16 Tomorrow march down against them. They will be climbing up by the Pass of Ziz, and you will find them at the end of the gorge in the Desert of Jeruel. 17 You will not have to fight this battle. Take up your positions; stand firm and see the deliverance the LORD will give you, Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Go out to face them tomorrow, and the LORD will be with you.'"18 Jehoshaphat bowed down with his face to the ground, and all the people of Judah and Jerusalem fell down in worship before the LORD."
Does this make sense at all? Huh? Look, it is not like there was a loud voice from heaven, God addressing them. BUT, they believed His prophet. Aaah, I love Jehoshaphat; he is the king yet he hears the Word from the prophet, receiving IT like a child, then He bows in gratitude and worship..*omg! This Word is too much for me, crying*..
When a Man/Woman of God speaks to you/your life, how do you receive those Words, do you question them? Eeeehe, examine yourself, you are missing out.
20 Early in the morning they left for the Desert of Tekoa. As they set out, Jehoshaphat stood and said, "Listen to me, Judah and people of Jerusalem! Have faith in the LORD your God and you will be upheld; have faith in his prophets and you will be successful."
Heheh, what? Yes,learn believe the Word like a child and take God at His Word, now they DO the Word, working the Word, heheh, aaah, heeyaaa, this is another level, I tell you. This is IT! The IT! Would you have done this? Examine yourself!
21 After consulting the people, Jehoshaphat appointed men to sing to the LORD and to praise him for the splendor of his holiness as they went out at the head of the army, saying: "Give thanks to the LORD, for his love endures forever.".... OMG! Aaah, sakibahayahikasha..aAh, omg..what is the meaning of this heh? who would do that in that delicate situation? This King ooooo, King Jehoshaphat, aaah, this King eeeh, this leader is too much. What kind of a leader are you, what kind of leader is leading your personal life? I'm saying personal because spiritually all Annointed Leaders (Men & Women of God) are or should be like this, I said ANNOINTED, not just any 'leader' neh...
22 As they began to sing and praise, the LORD set ambushes against the men of Ammon and Moab and Mount Seir who were invading Judah, and they were defeated. 23 The Ammonites and Moabites rose up against the men from Mount Seir to destroy and annihilate them. After they finished slaughtering the men from Seir, they helped to destroy one another. 24 When the men of Judah came to the place that overlooks the desert and looked toward the vast army, they saw only dead bodies lying on the ground; no one had escaped. 25 So Jehoshaphat and his men went to carry off their plunder, and they found among them a great amount of equipment and clothing and also articles of value—more than they could take away. There was so much plunder that it took three days to collect it."
Hahahahahahahahahah, I LOL.. That's GOD! Do you see this, do you see this. What is your Hope, on what do you base your decision, how is your Faith? Are you a christian? Imagine if they had no faith in God, imagine if Jehoshaphat trusted in his knowledge/understanding /power as king... they would have perished, I tell you.
Have faith in God, know the Word of God and do as God says, it doesn't have to make sense to you, just Do as the Bible says. Your solution to whatever it is you are going through, is in The Word. Because hearing the Word and praying in the Spirit, brings and builds your faith. It is impossible to please God without FAITH! Read the opening verse again..See what I mean?? Come Up Hither, as Pst Chris says "there is a higher life in Christ" God Bless you!!

Heheh, what? Yes,learn believe the Word like a child and take God at His Word, now they DO the Word, working the Word, heheh, aaah, heeyaaa, this is another level, I tell you. This is IT! The IT! Would you have done this? Examine yourself!
21 After consulting the people, Jehoshaphat appointed men to sing to the LORD and to praise him for the splendor of his holiness as they went out at the head of the army, saying: "Give thanks to the LORD, for his love endures forever.".... OMG! Aaah, sakibahayahikasha..aAh, omg..what is the meaning of this heh? who would do that in that delicate situation? This King ooooo, King Jehoshaphat, aaah, this King eeeh, this leader is too much. What kind of a leader are you, what kind of leader is leading your personal life? I'm saying personal because spiritually all Annointed Leaders (Men & Women of God) are or should be like this, I said ANNOINTED, not just any 'leader' neh...
22 As they began to sing and praise, the LORD set ambushes against the men of Ammon and Moab and Mount Seir who were invading Judah, and they were defeated. 23 The Ammonites and Moabites rose up against the men from Mount Seir to destroy and annihilate them. After they finished slaughtering the men from Seir, they helped to destroy one another. 24 When the men of Judah came to the place that overlooks the desert and looked toward the vast army, they saw only dead bodies lying on the ground; no one had escaped. 25 So Jehoshaphat and his men went to carry off their plunder, and they found among them a great amount of equipment and clothing and also articles of value—more than they could take away. There was so much plunder that it took three days to collect it."
Hahahahahahahahahah, I LOL.. That's GOD! Do you see this, do you see this. What is your Hope, on what do you base your decision, how is your Faith? Are you a christian? Imagine if they had no faith in God, imagine if Jehoshaphat trusted in his knowledge/understanding /power as king... they would have perished, I tell you.
Have faith in God, know the Word of God and do as God says, it doesn't have to make sense to you, just Do as the Bible says. Your solution to whatever it is you are going through, is in The Word. Because hearing the Word and praying in the Spirit, brings and builds your faith. It is impossible to please God without FAITH! Read the opening verse again..See what I mean?? Come Up Hither, as Pst Chris says "there is a higher life in Christ" God Bless you!!

What a glorious day it was. Lives were tranformed...Daveyton will never be the same again!!
If you want the pics, please let me know.
REACH OUT SA (ROSA): Why This Means So Much To Me!
I have to write ‘intro’ explain a few things to some people who have asked me questions and wondered why I was so excited about Reach Out South Africa (ROSA).
This is a glorious initiative whereby we distribute the Daily Devotional by Pastor Chris and Anita Oyakhilome. This is not an ordinary book based on their opinions, it is based on the Word of God written under the earnestness of the Holy Spirit, and therefore it is anointed. This book has changed lives including mine. I cannot start my day without studying it. Try it for yourself and tell me about it.
I thank God that I have heard His call and I've stepped- up. By this I mean, I have been taught and I've also studied the Word for myself and I now know how valuable people are to God. He sent His only Son to die (that kind of death, imagine it now), the Man died so that we may not perish but be alive to God. That we become right with God who is our Holy Creator. This all is only possible by Jesus Christ..............................................................
Acts 4: 11-12 “Jesus is the stone which you rejected, which has become the cornerstone, 14. Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved”
That is why we do what we do, it is all about Jesus, that people must come to this knowledge .This is the Gospel, this is the Good news; in addition to that, Jesus Himself gave this mandate to His disciples in Mark 16:15 ‘ He said to them, “ Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation””. .............................................................................................................................
So what we are doing, started with the Disciples of Jesus Christ and what an honour for us to be partakers of this glorious calling. They did their part as per the Master instruction; it is now our time to do our part and honour the Master’ instruction/Mandate. I thank God for the ministry that I am in (BLW aka Christ Embassy) because now I know that, it is NOT about me, my number priority is the to fulfill the work of the Master. He must increase, as I decrease i.e His will must be done, my will must come second to His. I am talking about a Man who himself said “My food (nourishment) is to do the will (pleasure) of Him Who sent me and to accomplish and completely finish His work)” – John4:34 aaah! What an example He set for us…oooh, I love JESUS so much!!!...................................................................................................
ROSA is one of the opportunities to fulfill this calling. Telling the Good News to the people until the whole is covered with it; that's what we live for, that’s priority No1. SO!!! The very same happened in Daveyton yesterday!! Eeehhyayayaaaaa!!!! This will be covered in Part 2, it was glorious… will post soon soon!.

The day Has Finally Come! Sinach Live in Concert - SA is ready!
Yaay!!! Those who know me know that I LOVE music, I love to sing (yes my voice is getting better and better, tltltl ), to worship God! So it is the 21st of September 2012 and the long awaited event is upon us; Sinach Live in Concert at The Lyric Theater, Gold Reef City. Wow! If you don't know who Sinach is, get into Google and you'll find out. Moreover that, it is not just Sinach, she has all other Music Ministers from BLW aka Christ Embassy (My home :) ). OMG! What an evening it will be!
Let me tell you a little secret; I made up my mind a long time ago that everytime when I'm going to be in the HolyGhostZone, be it at church, cell meeting, event, wherever, whenever, etc (Because where and when ever we meet in His Name, He is there and He inhabits the praises of His people), I must always have an expectation, I open my heart/spirit and I receive. This One is no different, I know that I'll walk out of that concert a totally different person because that theater/auditorium will the saturated with the Annointing, Too Much Power of God, Too large Power of God, hahah, anything will be possible. Such events you don’t miss you can have an ‘overflow’ in your own house, you can receive as well. The anointing upon this concert is all over, even on the social networks. Connect to it, open your heart and receive!

Why suffer by Yourself When You Have A Mighty CREATOR?
Jeremiah 32:27 "I am the LORD, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me?.................................................
This is the Lord asking you today, right now. What is it that you are going through right now, what is that mountain before you? What is that whole that seems to be consuming you? Don't you know that you have a creator, this very same God who created all what you see and you don't see, The creator of all,The One who loves you to a point that He gave His One & Only Son so gain you and me and all the people He created. Do you think He can let 'things' overpower you like that? HEe! If only you could accept this truth today; make up your mind to see Him as your Creator, knowing that you in Him you Live, Move and Have your Being
Aah, the freedom that comes with that knowledge, if you can just 'taste' it, you won't let it go. You'll be free indeed, not minding what happens to you because you know that He is in control, He is in Charge of your life and you are in constant talk with Him because you adress matters only with HIM and whoever wants to mess with you must
go through Him 1st. Aaah, what a life!! It is free, just know that HE is GOD and start this glorious lif with Him. God Bless you!

Who/what is leading you?
Romans 8:14
"For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God."
This verse is TOO MUCH, but I want to talk on "led by the Spirit", Sons of God is too much, it is for another day. Get Pastor Chris's teaching on dvd, on "Sons of God", you'll be made FOREVER, I tell you. Let's get back to it:
Haha, so what/who is leading you. What teachings/Doctrine do you live by, the societies, well known 'life' stages, cultural or traditional doctrine, etc?. Think about it: so many people believe that in this life, you have to go through 'life stages', people have said to me "Mapule, if jump stages you 'll go back to them when you are older" what is that? Who told you that, where do you get that knowledge from? Hehehe, if it is not in the Bible (The Word), if it is not by the Spirit of God, I'm sorry it don't make sense to me, I can't understand it and I won't be part of it. Why? Because I'm led by the Spirit. I'm led by THE WORD of God. If God has not said it, then it don't make sense to me, it doesn't apply to me! Heeyaaa!!!

What a life!! What a life! Glory!!!
Psalm 91: 9-13 "9 If you make the LORD your refuge,
if you make the Most High your shelter, 10 no evil will conquer you;
no plague will come near your home. 11 For he will order his angels
to protect you wherever you go. 12 They will hold you up with their hands
so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone. 13 You will trample upon lions and cobras;
you will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet!".......................................................................
Need I say more? Oh oh Glory to God, He is too much, so awesome. What a Life we have in Him, what a life, heheh so much Power eehhh, imagine this, 'the angels holding you with their hands so you won't even hurt your foot on a stone' can you see it? This is true freedom, you move without fear, worry etc. You are LIVING! Aaaah!!! and this is NOT ALL oooo!! There is MORE, MORE and So Much More...................................................................
How is your life, are you living in fear,no control whatsoever, bound by things and situations? As many people would say "I feel like the devil has control over my life?" Hahah, eeeh, have you read the opening verses?. That's your solution right there.
Stop suffering because you are ignorant and lazy, make up your mind to spend time to discover more by studying the Word (Bible), you'll be amazed! God Bless you!!

What Kind of A God Do You Know/Serve? My God Is A Life-Giver NOT a Killer!
I'm writing this because I think I have part of the answer I have been looking for and because I want to help some people who have been and are going through what I have been... I engage in intense discussions with people from time to time (I like knowing what other people think, heheh). I have lost very dear people in my life and I recently lost a very dear friend of mine (all through death). Honestly as much as I kind of accepted what has happened, I’d always have questions. Recently, when I heard the news about my friend’s passing, I firstly put the blame on me: that I should have prayed for him' then the blame game moved to God that 'God why didn't you save him, even if I didn't pray, You said that Your grace is sufficient for us...etc' (Because I knew something, that God is a life giver), so something didn’t add up. ( I thought about the great Men Of God in the Old Testament who died because they were very old, the physical body limited them, the body was too old), so why him because he was young , well and everyone else who is died young.........................................................................................................................................................
Look, the fact of the matter is that I sought answers and I never had NEW answers because in my heart I knew that the Bible says " God is good" I then went to the Bible, heheheh, there are lots of verses saying the very same, Glory to Good! Some of them are:........................................................................................................... ........................................
Psalm 100:5 " For the LORD is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations." Psalm 34:8 " Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.
Through the discussions I usually have with different people, I discovered that there are a lot of people who put a blame of God for almost everything that happens to them. To them God is BAD because He allows bad things to happen to them. The people I talked to were saying, "I've always had to struggle for everything in my life, He took my parents while I was still young; He took my baby, He took my mom, He blesses everyone else but not me; He allowed that woman to take my hubby..." Oh! *I just wana cry just thinking about this* ...................................................................................................................................................................
I just want to challenge you today: think about this:
1. This is a God who saw that His people were gonna die of sin, then gave His one and only Son to die for us. So that we may live. Who would do that? There is no greater love that this TRUST ME.
2. This is a God who saw to it that Adam and Eve were covered/clothed even after they went against His instruction.
3. This is the very same God that healed the sick, raised the dead, fed the hungry and He still does. Aaah!
4. The very same God who gave us the gift of righteousness.
5. The very same God who said that "I am the God of all mankind, Is there anything difficult for me"
6. The very same God who gave us the Great Holy Spirit and Name of Jesus and oh boy! there is nothing greater!! Mark 16:17-18 "17 And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; 18 they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well." (Look, I can search the scriptures and find more and more about His Goodness.). This is the God I know. Yes, the God I know & Serve. He is a good God.
Do you think God loves to see us cry, depressed, hurt etc? No he doesn't, He doesn't! That is why he wants us preach the gospel to everyone, the gospel of Jesus Christ is the Good News. Think about it: why would God make you suffer by taking your parents, by letting you be pregnant for 9 months then kill your baby after 6 months of giving birth, by making you to be a victim of all these circumstances, etc? The very same God who let His Son die that kind of death for you? Huh? Think about it: In John 10:10 He says "10 The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows)." You see, do you see who kills, destroys and Steals? Do you see for yourself, huh?.. Ok.! Oh, how we are so quick to put the blame on God, this has got to stop!
Last word: we see the Tsunami's, earthquakes, cyclones etc we blame God as well. When I hear of such, I always think of the days of Noah, after the great flood (GEN 9), This is what God said "Then God spoke to Noah and to his sons with him, saying, 9 Behold, I establish My covenant or pledge with you and with your descendants after you 10 And with every living creature that is with you--whether the birds, the livestock, or the wild beasts of the earth along with you, as many as came out of the ark--every animal of the earth. 11 I will establish My covenant or pledge with you: Never again shall all flesh be cut off by the waters of a flood; neither shall there ever again be a flood to destroy the earth and make it corrupt. 12 And God said, This is the token of the covenant (solemn pledge) which I am making between Me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all future generations: 13 I set My bow [rainbow] in the cloud, and it shall be a token or sign of a covenant or solemn pledge between Me and the earth. 14 And it shall be that when I bring clouds over the earth and the bow [rainbow] is seen in the clouds, 15 I will [earnestly] remember My covenant or solemn pledge which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters will no more become a flood to destroy and make all flesh corrupt."...
You see!?! Hahah! God doesn’t go against His Word, What he says He’ll do, He surely does, He is Faithful, that is why His Word is so dependable! Pastor Chris once said “Christians are the restraining power/force to the devil, that’s why we Christians MUST pray always” this truth I’ll never forget. The best things is that He has given us power over the devil so it is up to us to endorse or press the devil down and to makle sure he stays there. *oh refuse to endorse the devil*.
Remember, your views matter to me, lets us help one another. God is a good God!!!

You Want Favour & A Good Name in The Sight of God & People?
Yesterday, I attended another Bible Study Preparation Class with the MOG Pastor Chris himself, and the subject was FAITHFULNESS. It was TOO MUCH, the revelation, heheh aaayi! I'm not gonna share everything now but this is what I want to share with you today! Pastor said “Faithfulness is a commitment with a purpose of positive distinction” Hmmmm! *This is wisdom in abundance, I tell you*
.......................................................................................
Proverbs 3: 3-4 NIV reads "3 Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. 4 Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man."........................ ..............................................................................................................
How simple yet powerful this is. Have you ever wondered why some people seem to be loved, adored and just appreciated by everybody and most importantly by GOD? They have a good name, when their names are mentioned, people lighten up, heheh. You want to know what they have, hahahah; Love and Faithfulness. These are the fruits of the spirit, they are already in us, we just have to allow them to show forth. Oh! How wonderful!!......................................
Have you ever thought you could love and still be unfaithful or be faithful without love? Heheh, just think about it. Is it possible? Will that benefit you at all? NO, you cannot separate Love and Faithfulness. Love compels us to be faithful and faithfulness is sure proof that we are walking in love. But it won't just happen, you have to make a decision to be Faithful and to do all in love. Look, because I love God, I make a decision to be faithful to Him, to His Word. You see, and "I'll win favor and a good name in His sight"..hahahahah!! That's means I'll be distinct,not like everybody, I'll be different to Him, aah!.........................
Sometimes we are quick to cry out and say we are not loved or some people are favoured over us, at work, family, etc. The truth is everyone wants to deal with and truly LOVES someone who is faithful because faithfulness is a proof of Love. Jesus was also faithful to the Father, Abraham was faithful any many others, oh boy, and they surely received BIG from God.
......................................................................................................................................Look, if you are unfaithful, you cannot be trusted, you are not dependable and in simple terms, you have no love for the person or that which you should be faithful to. Who wants to have someone like that? Who wants to deal with someone like that? Nobody.
The Key thing is " You want to win favor with God and people, hold on to love and faithfulness, tie it around your neck if you have to, never be without these 2.
Have a great week!! God Bless you!!

I Believe The WORD of GOD Like A Small Child; I Do Not try to REASON.
I look forward to the day I (physically)change an ordinary paper to money, the day I multiply a mere R20 to R200 000. Heheh, Hahah, tltltl. You think it is impossible? Great and Amazing things are already happening..Let's read the WORD; .......................................................................In John 14:12, Jesus says "Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.". As Pastor Chris (I love him so much) says "these are the words you read/hear and you just wana get a chair...."Hahah! You gotta sit down and 'digest' this Word because it is TOO MUCH, It is LOADED ................................................................
Think about it, so if I believe in Jesus, I can do greater things than He did..AaaaAah, the very same Jesus who was always Victorious in whatever situation He faced. Heheh, Iemme think; He talked to the storms and they obeyed, trees, He turned water into wine, He raised the dead, He walked on water,healed the sick, etc. Heheheh, what a life! What a life He has made available to us , to know that we can even do greater things. Yoh! This is too much!! .................................................................
Heheheh, hahahaha, aaaaahhhh!!! Because I believe in Him, I'm unlimited, nothing is impossible to me. If you believe in Him, I challenge you today to take this Word and run with it, receive this Word today and start DOING! If you don't believe in Him, I challenge to start believing. Imagine yourself being hungry and there is no food in the house, yet you have money to buy food. Unless you go get/buy the food (DO!), you'll remain hungry. Jesus didn't say "you'll pray to God so that He can DO..." But He said "whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these" see, it is your responsibility to DO! Start Doing, minister healing to your body,to your family members and other people, talk to your future, finances, business, etc. Do!Do!Do! Do! in the Name of Jesus! You'll be amazed!!! God Bless you!

How Would You Have Responded If You Were in Her Shoes??
(This question has been in my heart since I read the Rhapsody Of Realities (www.rhapsodyofrealities.org), daily devotional for 07 Sept 2012.)....................................................................
2 Kings 4:1-7 (MSG translation) reads..................................
"1 One day the wife of a man from the guild of prophets called out to Elisha, "Your servant my husband is dead. You well know what a good man he was, devoted to GOD. And now the man to whom he was in debt is on his way to collect by taking my two children as slaves."
2 Elisha said, "I wonder how I can be of help. Tell me, what do you have in your house?"
"Nothing," she said. "Well, I do have a little oil."
3-4 "Here's what you do," said Elisha. "Go up and down the street and borrow jugs and bowls from all your neighbors. And not just a few—all you can get. Then come home and lock the door behind you, you and your sons. Pour oil into each container; when each is full, set it aside."
5-6 She did what he said. She locked the door behind her and her sons; as they brought the containers to her, she filled them. When all the jugs and bowls were full, she said to one of her sons, "Another jug, please."
He said, "That's it. There are no more jugs."
Then the oil stopped.
7 She went and told the story to the man of God. He said, "Go sell the oil and make good on your debts. Live, both you and your sons, on what's left."................................ The Question is:How would you have responded to this instruction if you were in her shoes? What would you have done? Knowing very well that you have little oil in your house but you are told to get as many containers as you can? "For what now, sir I just told you I have little oil, please now.." your mind would have answere like this neh. Ayi, I refuse to be carnally minded, I respond from my spirit NOT my mind.The Word of God is too big for the mind,only the spirit/heart can 'get' The Word. Hahah! & Where did that oil that filled all the containers come from? eeeehhhheeeh!!!I just told you, your mind is too little for the Word, this one will blow your mind away...hahah, let me leave it there!
Have a great day!

Why I Cried This Morning!...*too personal but its ok..*
John 17 vs 4 reads... "...I have glorified You down here on the earth by completing the work that You gave Me to do."......................... Honestly, this is The Lord Jesus’ prayer to The Father, I meditated on it this morning, I saw myself saying the very same words to Jesus and Him saying "I'm so proud of you" and I could not stop weeping, I just could not help it. (Imagine if I had a husband, or even worse a husband who is not a believer, *tjo,I refuse shem*..heheh. this morning,he would think I'm mad or something and he would be justified to think like that,neh,tltltl..well.. thats not the point, Let's get back to this).......
This opening/above verse eeh, this verse eeh, aayi! How I wana say the exact words to the Lord when I leave this world or even on that Big Day when the Lord comes again. This is the ultimate expression of Love,there is no greater Love than this,doing His Will, and completing it, to a point where I am convinced that I've completed it,( Oh I love The Lord Jesus, He is so certain/sure/on point in everything He does). Doing what your Creator/Maker purposed you to do. Doing what you were born/created to do. I urge you to sit for a few minutes and ask yourself this: "why did God send His only Son to die for us (people)?"... Just think about it, who would do that? Would you do that? Nowadays people are even attached to things, especially money, they don't want to give things, I mean things, & God gives His Son..aaaaaah eeeeeeh!!. But God, gave His Son to die like that, like that heh, that kind of death. What kind of Love is this heh?..Look, the fact is: Jesus died for us the people, that we be in right standing with God,that we have real LIFE.
JUST STOP AND THINK...So let me ask you this Question: what are you doing for HIM. If you didn't know, know this TODAY!! He gave us a mandate in Mark 16:15 "And He said to them, Go into all the world and preach and publish openly the good news (the Gospel) to every creature [of the whole human race].".. This is IT. Do you say Lord to Jesus , if you do, know this today: Your Lord/Master has given you a mandate. This is what you MUST do. This will change your life, it will 'MAKE' you. Look at this; John 15 :10" If you keep My commandments [if you continue to obey My instructions], you will abide in My love and live on in it, just as I have obeyed My Father’s commandments and live on in His love.". See what I mean? Oh, how wonderful it would be for all of us to pray like the Lord Jesus in our opening scripture, knowing that we have done It, we have made Him proud. He says in John 15 vs 8 "8 This is to my Father's glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples." Aaah, eehheeeeh, Yes, I show myself to be His disciple, I bear much fruit, Glory to God!!. I refuse to be anything else, I refuse!
If I don't stop now I'll be late for work heheh. But please eehh, please take these words to your heart, I urge you. You didn't create yourself and you are not alive today because you are clever, No!. The Lord's grace is upon you, He is patiently waiting for you to STOP focusing on yourself, doing what you want because you think you can. Today, go back to basics, make up your mind to Live the Life He predestined for you, He brought you here for a purpose, It is NOT about you at all. God bless you! (I'm also saying this to myself, and I thank the greatest Teacher, The Holy Spirit, for teaching me this truth this morning).

Durable Success Formula - Just Dare Yourself!!!!
Joshua 1 vs 7-8 reads thus.. "Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. 8 Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful."
This is God Speaking, speaking to us today. I've said before that the in Christ, there is no darkness, No trial and error at all. We are always told of what to do and how to do etc, how wonderful is that. When I hear someone saying "I don't know hey, if God is willing or if it is meant to be it will be", I hear someone talking like this I already know that this person lacks knowledge, that means he/she is heading for destruction. Hosea 4:6
God is telling Joshua what he needs to know and do, to succeed in what he does. This says to me; Mapule,stop trying out all these things, labouring so hard, trying this and that in search of success, here is the formula for success."Joshua 1:7-8". In other words, this Book of the Law/Instruction/What-To-DO-&-Not-To-Do I.e THE WORD OF GOD that is in the BIBLE should always be on my lips, that means I talk IT, I talk what is in IT. Heheh, I MUST meditate on it day and night,God is a master communicator. To me, he didn't have to say "meditate on it.." Because I understand that for me to 'talk IT, I must meditate on it'. This simply emphasizes how important it is that this be done. Aaaaaah, God is simply THE BEST.
In 1Timothy 4:15-16, Apostle Paul says "15 Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all. 16 Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.".................................................................................Do you see this? You want to be SUCCEED in all? This is what you must do. God is our Creator, He created everything, He is the Alpha and Omega (Beginning & End), our lives are in His hands. So why do most of us refuse to do as He tells us to?.
Look, this is like following a Weigh-less diet yet you refuse to eat as they tell you to. You won't get the results that other diligent people get, you'll FAIL. Hear me today please, God is dependable, so so much. Stop trying this and that,you have a Creator who created you for a purpose, find out what that purpose is and walk in it. His Word and the Power in His Word will ensure that you become what God purposed you to be.God doesn't fail, He produces Successes only. Dare yourself to do as He says and see. God Bless You!

HOW IS YOUR ATTITUDE TOWARDS CHALLENGES?
2Corinthians 12 vs 9-10 reads..." 9 But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. 10 That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong."
Gone are those days when I thought that as a child of God, things should always be smooth for me as in like, all things should just magically run smoothly.The reality is, it is not like that and it actually don't and should not matter at all. Let me give an example: Say you have faith, to be precise I'll say a measure of faith (all of us have), you pray in the Name of Jesus, you believe you have received as you know the Word says you shall receive, you talk the Word, declare..then whatever you prayed about just never seems to happen or come to pass. Child of God, what do you do??? Sometimes it seems like it gets worse.What do you do?.......
Have you given up on God (His power that is at work in you) because you didn't get what you wanted? God seemed to be far when you really really needed Him closer? Or you ask questions like "when will God hear me", " how could God let this happen to me"?? etc.
Why do we always cry and feel so helpless and defeated when bad things happen to us. Why do we always blame God for everything bad that happens.? I think I may know why; BECAUSE WE DO NOT KNOW THE WORD OF GOD.
Look,always know that you are divinely enabled (by the Holy Spirit in you) to do everything,to stay on top of things, to be a victor always. Now that I know (Glory To God)that the Lord has said " ..My grace is sufficient for you, for my strength is made perfect in weakness", heheheh aaaai!!!. If He is my Lord/Master, He is in control. He has given us the Holy Spirit to dwell in us , we have His nature in us.. Heheh, aaaaiii, I"ll never worry, complain, cry helplessly etc no matter what I go through, because I believe His Word, His strength is made perfect in my weakness. He is able to do exceedingly above that which I ask or imagine (Ephe 3:20); He perfects everything that concerns me Psalm 138:8. The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want (Psalm 23:1); and many more scripture that I think of and remember who I am. See how wonderful The Word is, The Word is the solution for everything. Since i got to know this, my attitude towards challenges has completely changed.I actually don't mind what happens because I know He is in control always. I now can speak like Paul the Apostle and say " I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong." Heeyaa.. This is IT mehhnn,
This is IT.
Know The Word, Believe The Word, Do The Word, talk The Word ALWAYS. Challenges
Will be 'bread' for you. You'll never cry because you are troubled, because you know that His strength is made perfect in your weakness. God Bless you!
Please don't miss church!

Just A Thought: I'm Sorted, like Totally!!!
This is one scripture that you study and you get a chair..heeeyaah!
EPHESIANS 3:20 "Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us"NIV
Aaah, eeheeehehe, so in other words, what I ask of Him or imagine is just the minimum; for the Word says 'He is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine..". Oh well, even what I imagine, eheeh.. God is TOO MUCH.
But here is the crux of this matter:
"...according to His power that is at work within us"..so, God does all this according/by to His Power that is at work in us. So it is His Power at work in me that does 'the doing'.. Heheh, so as long as I have the Power (by The Holy Spirit), I'm SORTED, like really SORTED. The key thing is; for us to 'see' HIM doing more than we ask or imagine, is in the realization,acknowledgment and trusting of the His Power that is in us. OMG!!! The Holy Spirit + The WORD is KEY to everything.
Mark 9:23 says "....All things are possible to him that believeth". Hahah, I believe in the Power of the Holy Spirit that is at work in me, therefore I know that He is able to do exceedingly above that which I ask or imagine. Heeeeyaaa!!! I'M SORTED, TOTALLY!!

Oh! So! Good To KNOW!!
Psalm 91 NLT
1 Those who live in the shelter of the Most High
will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
2 This I declare about the LORD:
He alone is my refuge, my place of safety;
he is my God, and I trust him.
3 For he will rescue you from every trap
and protect you from deadly disease.
4 He will cover you with his feathers.
He will shelter you with his wings.
His faithful promises are your armor and protection.
5 Do not be afraid of the terrors of the night,
nor the arrow that flies in the day.
6 Do not dread the disease that stalks in darkness,
nor the disaster that strikes at midday.
7 Though a thousand fall at your side,
though ten thousand are dying around you,
these evils will not touch you.
8 Just open your eyes,
and see how the wicked are punished.
9 If you make the LORD your refuge,
if you make the Most High your shelter,
10 no evil will conquer you;
no plague will come near your home.
11 For he will order his angels
to protect you wherever you go.
12 They will hold you up with their hands
so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone.
13 You will trample upon lions and cobras;
you will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet!
14 The LORD says, “I will rescue those who love me.
I will protect those who trust in my name.
15 When they call on me, I will answer;
I will be with them in trouble.
I will rescue and honor them.
16 I will reward them with a long life
and give them my salvation.”
What more can I say...this is TOO MUCH.. OUR GOD is AAWwEESOME

2 Kinds Of People; Which One Are You?
Jeremiah 17 verses 5 to 8 reads..."5 Thus saith the Lord; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the Lord. Another translation says (This is what the LORD says:
“Cursed are those who put their trust in mere humans, who rely on human strength and turn their hearts away from the LORD.)NLT
6 For he shall be like the heath in the desert, and shall not see when good cometh; but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land and not inhabited".
"7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is. 8 For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit."
As I was meditating on this scripture this morning, I was like 'wow'!!! I have studied it so many times but still, it is TOO MUCH. I remembered something very profound; Pastor Chris once said that "Love always gives/allows a choice" that means when you love someone, you'll give them an opportunity or ability to have a choice to respond the way you expect or not, you can't force them to love you, Love does not do that. God is LOVE, He is like this, so He gives a choice always. Heheh,eeehh, He tells you that you have 2 option and lays out the consequences of choosing any of the laid out options. Haa, the Word is LIGHT, you can't be in darkness, no trial and error, you always know what to do and what to get out of doing the Word.. Oh the above scripture is sooo loaded with wisdom;
So, this tell me this: it all can't be well with me if I trust in people; if I rely on human strength (my own or any others); if I turn away from God. As I examine myself, I think of the days when I used to expect and trust so much in people, heheh, how I would always end up disappointed. How I used to depend on myself that I'd push myself so hard, shame on me! What a miserable life, what a frustrating way of life, you end up losing all the hope for the future and settling for mediocrity. I have realized that a person is a hazard to herself/himself and to other people if Jesus/The WORD is Not the Lord or Master in his/her life. The thinking, reasoning, talking on its own is destructive because they depend on what they think, feel etc, hahah, there is no guidance at all, it is like the blind leading the blind. BUT I thank God because now I/we have the privilege to know better, wisdom has arrived, I/we have arrived! ........................................................................................................................................
Eeeh, ayayayay! I'm TOLD in verse 7 that" “But blessed are those who trust in the LORD and have made the LORD their hope and confidence. 8 They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water.
Such trees are not bothered by the heat
or worried by long months of drought.
Their leaves stay green,
and they never stop producing fruit."
*Aaaiiiii...Ayayaya..Ehhheeeh..honestly, I read this verse and starts dancing*. So I’ve said and still say to myself; If I trust in the Lord and if my hope the Lord is or the Lord is my hope; this is how it all can be. Yoh! Yoh! So I'll NOT be bothered by anything, challenges of this world, nothing at all shall bother me. Hahah, I will not be affected by anything, I'll forever be productive, prospering, winning, shinning, smiling, etc. So I'm a readymade VICTOR! I am Not Moved by what I see, because I know who back me up. The only way is VICTORY, WINNING! Yoh! Talk about being ‘too loaded to be empty’, ‘too late to fail’. So why should I bother about anything else,hahah, I refuse. All I must do is to TRUST in HIM, God Himself takes care of everything. God is too much!
I think of verse 5,6,7& 8 in Proverbs Chapter 3 which says "5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. 6 Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. 7 Don’t be impressed with your own wisdom.
Instead, fear the LORD and turn away from evil. 8 Then you will have healing for your body and strength for your bones" .................................................................................. heheh Oh I refuse to trust in people. The Lord is my Hope, I completely trust in the Lord, in Him alone. He is the Lord of my life, my decisions, my everything.
Wow! Choose right and be the right man/person. Trust in the LORD, always! Have a great day!
