Riches and Honour are with me (WISDOM); yea durable riches and righteousness. Prov 8:18

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!

Just A Thought: Your Past Don't Matter!!!!

I’m very opinionated (as some of you may know) and I like finding out other people’s opinions on everything. So I was talking to a friend of mine about life in general, specifically about the progression of people in this life; the Past, The Present & The Future. Well, to wrap things up, this is what we ‘kind of’ agreed on (after a long discussion of course..hahah you know what I mean).
THE PRESENT This is where you are at the time NOW and there is nothing you can do to change The Present, but you can walk through it by keeping a positive attitude. If you did not prepare it and mould it while it was still the future, it is too late so you might as well enjoy it. The bottom line is, don't fight whatever is happening in The Present, you will be frustrated; it is just a moment and it will soon be the Past........................................................................................................ THE PAST
Heheheh, this one right here is challenging (nyana). But it is what it is, the Past, you can't change it as well, so why even consider it. Easier said than done hey, but it is possible. You can refuse to allow you past into your Present and your Future. Know this: as long as you still cry over your past, still in there wounded by it, it has dominion over you and it has defeated you and that is NOT good for you. So how can you shake off your past? Hmmmm, let’s see:................. 1. Give your life to Jesus. Let Him be the Lord of your life. (2 Cor 5:17.)Hahah, If He is your Master, you are in good hands, your future is bright, very. Basically, you have NO PAST at all. 2. Lose the baggage NOT the lesson: Learn from your mistakes. Yes you messed up; yes you were wrong, yes you were stupid etc, but it is all in the past. You are NOW a better person. 3. Believe that your mistakes were not 'set backs' but 'set ups' to propel you to greater heights. Consequences of your past failures should NOT defeat your, deal with them, but never allow then to derail your life or get you down. 4. Never base your future on your past. Yeah, you can compare the two so that you can see how God has raised you up and blessed you. 5. Learn to listen to instructions, if you don't; you'll fall into destruction. Proverbs 4:20 – 22 (I did write about Role models/Mentors/"the Compass" see WE NEED GUIDANCE...)..................................................................................................................... THE FUTURE
1. If He is your Lord, you got nothing to worry about. (Psalm 23:1, Proverbs 3: 5) 2. Soak yourself in Him, in His WORD, get to know your Master and the real you. (John 15:5) 3. Be on His perfect will for your life NOT you trying to make God to be on your will for your Life. (John 10:27-28, John 15:16) 4. Know who you are, what you have. (1John 4:4, 1John 5:1-4) 5. Do the WORD! 6. Make up your mind to be knowledgeable, to be a better person, to be a star always. Get Wisdom!

What is the SUBSTANCE of your Prayer?

I am so inspired by the scripture that lead me to the above Subject/Question. Mehnn, the Holy Spirit is the greatest teacher ever, I tell you. I have heard so many people saying they are tired of praying because it is like they pray in vain and just never get what they prayed for. Well, I also used to say that but not anymore, Glory to God! Why is this so, why is this the case with many people, I"ll tell you why? *smiling*
Well, let's looks into the scripture:..............................>>>>>>> Acts 4 vs 23 -31.. (This was after the Apostles Peter and John had been released from jail because they had been using the Name of Jesus, teaching and healing etc...) Please study the whole Chapter, it is loaded....................................>>>> Ok Verse 23 says; 23 And being let go, they(Peter and John) went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them. 24 And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is: 25 Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things? 26 The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ. 27 For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together, 28 For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done. 29 And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word, 30 By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus. 31 And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.” Look into verses 24 to 28, notice what they are saying, they are speaking the Word of God, all this that they are saying in this prayer is written in the Bible (old Testament), it is the Word of God. Do you realize that they were talking The Word, they never jumped into what they wanted to say to God. They first spoke the Word..in other Words, they are saying "Lord, you said this, we are not moved or fearful or hopeless because we know that THIS is what you said"..aaah, what a great way to talk to God, proving to Him that you know what He said concerning whatever situation you are facing. heheh, how do you pray, I ask.??
Heheh, let's continue.. From verse 29, they now start to ask/talk what they desire but look at this, their desire is based on God's Word. They didn't ask God whether to continue with the work they were doing or even wait for God to say "I'll give protect you from them(the kings and rulers who arrested them) or even to say I'll give you boldness"..No, they knew they had to continue doing what they were doing, they believed so much in the Word(given to them) and they knew that what they were doing is what the Master Jesus Christ told them to do, so they believed in that WORD. Now I ask, what did The Master Jesus Christ say concerning you, do you even know, do you believe His WORD? How are you going to know that if you don't let HIM reign in you, if you don't give yourself to HIM/HisWORD. Oh well....! I’ve said this before ,Jesus and The Word are One. (John 1 vs 1-14.) Capisci??? Now look at this.."31 And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness." Ehheeh, is this verse saying they waited and waited to receive answers to their prayer??? Huh??..heheh, they received boldness immediately after praying. Aaaah, is this happening to you, can this happen to us. YES, YES and YES!!! heheh, this is TOO MUCH I tell you! Glory to God!
This is what I've learnt from this scripture:................................. 1.As I've said it before, The Word is The Solution. Knowing what The Word says about the situation you are facing is KEY 2. Knowing what you have, what belongs to you, what your God given right is, who you are, in other words, What God says about you, your life, your future is VITAL because when you know, you won't be moved, give up and be fearful. You'll boldly pray to God knowing what He has said/done/made available for/to you. Capisci?? For an example, if there is a need in your life, instead of saying “God, please I need money, I need this and that...”you simply say “Father I thank YOU for I know that you supply and shall always supply all my needs according to your riches in glory, in Christ Jesus’s Name” this is based on 2 Peter 1 vs 3 (there are many others). you see, you speak like Apostle Paul in Philippians 4vs 19. 3.Once you believe and know The Word, you are in Faith (fear is gone) therefore you are automatically positioned to receive answers. When you say AMEN, that's IT, DONE. IT IS SO!! God Bless you!!!

THE ABSOLUTE SOLUTION (Part 2)

Wow, I wrote this very early in the morning, way before my normal time to get up and get ready for work AND I can't stop thanking the Holy Spirit for this Word and revelation,even now (afternoon). The WORD is What the WORD says; eehhheeh, I'm never in darkness, I am always prepared, knowing what to do, when and how, well equipped and enabled, Glory to God. The WORD is THE SOLUTION!
Why do some people find themselves in hopeless situations, being victims of circumstances, not knowing what to do, when and how? So they tolerate their hopeless situations, not knowing how to respond, what to do,when to do. They accept whatever comes their way and just hope it will pass. Heheh, this is a very dangerous position to find yourself in, because like it or not, you are a victim. If at any point you find yourself overpowered by situations and having no strategy or defense mechanism,you are a victim and that’s should not be for a Child of God. *ayi,I refuse to be a victim* The WORD gives me the strategy and the defense mechanism no matter what,yeah, The Word is THE SOLUTION. For example, Lets look at this Scripture ......................................... James 5 vs 13 -14 "Is anyone among you in trouble? Let them pray. Is anyone happy? Let them sing songs of praise. 14 Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them ..." From this, I get this; if there is anyone among us who is in trouble, they should pray (that's the solution), the WORD doesn't say, I must cry, tell my friends, fight etc. Anyone among us is happy, they should sing songs of praise. Verse 14 says 'if anyone among us is sick, the elders of the church must be called to pray over them...' Is this Not a SOLUTION, heheh! ............................................................................................................................................ There are 3 important things to take note of in this scripture:........................................ 1.The word 'among' - that means ‘in your midst’, you must part of the group of people or around people (not alone).(See the importance of belonging to a local church). That's the Solution right there. 2. Then we are told what to DO in the circumstances mention above. That's the Solution right there. 3. In verse 14, we are told to call the elders..aaahhh, heheh, this is too much. Remember you are part of a group of people here and there are different levels of faith, then if you are sick, call the elders.. So this tells me something, hahah..That the elders are NOT expected to get sick, because they must pray for sick people. How can they minister to sick people when they are sick themselves.heeeyaaa!!!!Heheh,haha!!!................................................................................. So who are the 'elders of the church', it is definitelyNOT the old people in the church or even the people who have been there in a long time..NO!. The elders are the people who are DOING THE WORD, who receive the WORD and let the WORD reign and Rule them, who have experienced and proven the POWER of WORD, whom The WORD has gained mastery in their lives. That’s the level where God wants us, and the Word can take us there. Hmmmmmm… Aaah, wow..yeah, because the WORD is GOD. This is too much...The WORD of GOD is RICH, TOO MUCH!!!! Eish, I must stop here…. Remember to share your thoughts with me,there is so much we can learn together. This is us 'Getting Wisdom' here as it is The Principal Thing! God Bless you!!

THE ABSOLUTE SOLUTION (Part 1)

(I named this Part 1 because it was written on Sunday evening as I was meditating on these scriptures)..That inspired me to write on the above Title.)
These 2 scriptures are TOO MUCH. I'll keep on meditating on them until the penetrate my bone marrow or even further..heheh! Hmmmmm! Let's see:.......................................................... Scripture ONE: Psalm 112 vs 1-10......................................................................................................................................... 1 PRAISE THE Lord! (Hallelujah!), Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) is the man who fears (reveres and worships) the Lord, who delights greatly in His commandments. ........... 2 His [spiritual] offspring shall be mighty upon earth; the generation of the upright shall be blessed. ....................... 3 Prosperity and welfare are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever................ 4 Light arises in the darkness for the upright, gracious, compassionate, and just [who are in right standing with God]. ................... 5 It is well with the man who deals generously and lends, who conducts his affairs with justice................... 6 He will not be moved forever; the [uncompromisingly] righteous (the upright, in right standing with God) shall be in everlasting remembrance. ................ 7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is firmly fixed, trusting (leaning on and being confident) in the Lord. .............. 8 His heart is established and steady, he will not be afraid while he waits to see his desire established upon his adversaries. .................... 9 He has distributed freely [he has given to the poor and needy]; his righteousness (uprightness and right standing with God) endures forever; his horn shall be exalted in honor. ................... 10 The wicked man will see it and be grieved and angered, he will gnash his teeth and disappear [in despair]; the desire of the wicked shall perish and come to nothing..................................................................................................................... Scripture TWO: Joshua 1 vs 8.................
This Book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe and do according to all that is written in it. For then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall deal wisely and have good success.
................................................................................... Wow! Need I say more...we are told what to do, how to be, so that we can walk into and function in our inheritance which is being blessed and being prosperous always. Is that not a Solution?Eheeeh, you see, so this means no more trial and error method to get by in this life, THE WORD is ALL we need. Truly, a light/lamp unto our feet; a light of all mankind (John 1 vs 4). We know what to do to get what..aaah, gone are those days of trying this and that............................. Oh I love The Lord. There is nothing that we may want that He is not. Jesus is The Solution (yeah , Jesus and The Word are One, John 1 vs 14). Oh He is the Greatest God, greatly to be praised! In HIM there is no darkness! Let's continue to walk in this Light. Have a blessed Week!!

Wow! What an honour!!!

This is what I was meditating on, earlier this morning!
The Apostle Paul in Titus 2 vs 1- 9 said this: 1.......... You, however, must teach what is appropriate to sound doctrine. 2 Teach the older men to be temperate, worthy of respect, self-controlled, and sound in faith, in love and in endurance. 3 Likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanderers or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good. 4 Then they can urge the younger women to love their husbands and children, 5 to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God. 6 Similarly, encourage the young men to be self-controlled. 7 In everything set them an example by doing what is good. In your teaching show integrity, seriousness 8 and soundness of speech that cannot be condemned, so that those who oppose you may be ashamed because they have nothing bad to say about us. 9 Teach slaves to be subject to their masters in everything, to try to please them, not to talk back to them, 10 and not to steal from them, but to show that they can be fully trusted, so that in every way they will make the teaching about God our Savior attractive. ........................................................................................................................................................................ Wow, this got me thinking; yeah I know that the Lord Jesus gave me a mandate to preach the Gospel and now this in the scripture above. Ehhheeh, am I not special, am I not too blessed, that I can partake in what is dear to the LORD (I am Too Much neh, heheh). So now I know that in preaching the Gospel, it is my responsibility to make the very same Gospel of Jesus Christ, to be attractive. Not making it attractive in the way I tell IT only, also making it attractive through the way I live and conduct myself, this is all LOVE. Heheh, truly this LOVE constrains/Compels/urges me to do what is pleasing to HIM, the same as this LOVE constrained/compelled/urged HIM to give His Only Son for us, to lay down His Life for us........................................................................................................................................................................ What would you do for someone who ensures that all is well with you? That person who is selfless, caring, pure, loving, concerned about your well-being, that person whom you know very well that "there is nothing she/he cannot do for me". Wow! Is there such a person, yes there is, many of them. The very first is GOD. Wow, my mind is thinking of a lot of things to do for such a person; yet All HE requires from us is this: Mark 16 vs 15 ..He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. Heheheh, what kind of LOVE is this..aaaah LORD..!!
Well, in this world, those are the people that have received LOVE and fully acknowledge IT and discern how it came about and its impact thereof. They are giving what they have received, in LOVE. There is something unusual about these kinds of people and that is what gets people talking in awe and in disbelief, because in this world, such people are very hard to find. The FACT is; Everyone is attracted to a good 'thing'. But we the Sons of God have received the greatest LOVE of all, Glory To God! It is our responsibility to show forth what we have received, to make/present (the Gospel has the POWER on its own because IT the Word of God, but I participate in enhancing that POWER, making/presenting the Gospel ATTRACTIVE (heheh, am I not too Blessed, Too Much? Well....), to walk in love, to be disciplined and to do what is Good always, to do what pleases HIM. Wow! What an honour!!! This is the Gospel that MAKES me who I am today, Glory to God. I'm so honoured to share this with you, hoping that you'll also share it with other. This is BIG, too Great..you can't keep quiet about IT, you just cant..heheh. This is one of the ways we get to show forth that we are truly a partaker of the Divine Nature as the Word says. Glory!!!!!!!!!. PS, please pardon my spelling errors neh, am rushing for church. God Bless you!!!!!!!!!!!

Just A Thought: We Need Guidance!

Imagine a ship in the ocean, on a journey to a specified destination but without a compass, can it get there? No and Yes. Technically, it can't get there (mostly) but lets say it can eventually get there; however, it will take a lot of time and effort for it to eventually get there and even to know where it is positioned at that point in time.
The same applies with our lives, there is that person that should be 'your compass', that's the person who has gone an extra mile and has already possessed the knowledge and the revelation that is merely still a goal/vision to you. That 'compass' is the leader and guide in your life, if you don't pay attention to 'IT' you will get lost. That is why the Holy Spirit came,we need guidance, we would not be able to fellowship with God the Father and The Son without HIM. We would not relate nje at all. This 'Compass' in your life must be filled with the Spirit of God, ‘loaded’ with the Word of God i.e someone who is DOING the WORD. He/she must have a trained Spirit 'trained by God through The Word and The Holy Spirit. He/she must have seen and experienced what is still a dream and a vision to you, then that experience and revelation is imparted into your life as Wisdom, and it becomes your guide. Life is Spiritual, if 'your compass' cannot discern spiritual things,he/she can't teach you to discern spiritual things. Then you'll have No life because Life is Spiritual. God is Spirit John 4 vs 4. In Proverbs 4 vs 3-4, King Solomon says "3. For I was my father's son, tender and only beloved in the sight of my mother. 4 He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live." So King Solomon had a Role Model/Compass who was His Father David. He was trained and disciplined by his father, and “only beloved in sight of my mother” meaning that her mother was tender with him.
Who is that Compass in your life, you need to have ONE. That one person who has been through IT, who has been tested and has proven/worked the Word of God, that person who has acted in faith and obtained great results or records, that person who has achieved what most people only get to dream about, that's person who has become aware of who He/she is in Christ and is in possession of the total package of salvation. We have so many Role Models in the Bible, from Papa Abraham, David,...The Lord Jesus Christ, Apostle Paul and all the Apostles, etc. In this 'age', each one of us has to have a role model or leader, and God has placed those people in our lives for this reason, that they become the 'Compass' that inspires us to get to the specified destination. Without the compass, you can get there but it might take you forever to get there because you will surely get lost. Who is your Role Model/Compass/Coach in this life? Get to know him/her, get to know what drives him/her, how he/she lives, identify yourself with that person, etc. Listen to their instruction, and then you'll get direction. If you don't listen to the instruction, you are bound to fall into destruction. Have a great weekend!!

If We Only KNEW!!!!

I've come to KNOW that God has called us into the God-kind of life. Can you imagine the life that is in GOD, HE is LIFE Himself. I get so stirred up when I look at how the Lord Jesus lived while walking on earth. Haha, He was a never a victim of circumstances,he was loving,compassionate, triumphing in all things. Do you know why, because He knew what He had, who He was and whose He was. What about us? Let's look into this Scripture Hosea 4vs6 NLT God says; "My people are being destroyed because they don’t know me. Since you priests refuse to know me, I refuse to recognize you as my priests. Since you have forgotten the laws of your God, I will forget to bless your children. "
*Tjo! I refuse to be ignorant* Yoh! I woke up this morning and as usual went through my social networking pages yookos/twitter/facebook (after prayer and studying The Word of course), this is the what I came across, posted by one of my friends;
I thought to myself, I once had this kind of logic, thinking that God is really failing us His children and all that.*I know I'm not the only one,heheh* But I'd ask myself how could God fail us when He gave His ONLY Son for us (that is the greatest gift ever), it just didn't make sense to me at all..well until KNOWLEDGE came, Glory to God. The Word of God is God , John 1 vs 1 -4 says "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind"......you see? And in verse 14, it reads thus "The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us" that's the Lord Jesus.. Please read the whole chapter.. The scripture above says "In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind", so it means today if you don't have THE WORD, you have NO LIFE and you have NO LIGHT. yeah because JESUS is THE WORD (made flesh...................... Pastor Chris once said something very profound but that could easily be ignored , he said that "the Bible is like a treasure book (like on a treasure hunt, yeah), you have to search the scriptures like your search for a treasure"..wow because what you get in there is FOR LIFE, very precious and that is KNOWLEDGE. I did exactly that and I was blown away, that's why I always say "The Word is RICH" IT is TOO MUCH. I always say 'If you know WHAT, you'll know HOW'.
In Ephesians 1 vs 17-19, The Apostle Paul says...."I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. 18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, 19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe........................................ Do you see how important it is that we KNOW, that we come to the FULL KNOWLEDGE of who GOD is because then we'll KNOW who we are and what we have. Aaaaah! Once you know, I say Once you know, you'll relate with God differently, you'll see and know that you have been your very own barrier, prohibiting yourself from living THE LIFE He called us into, that it is all up to you NOT GOD. I urge you to 'answer this call', get to know who and what God has called you to be, what He has made available for you. It is all in THE WORD! You might say "I study The Word but I don't understand"..well, I got great news for you, THE HOLY SPIRIT is our teacher. Make up your mind to Spend time studying THe WORD of God, if you don't have a Bible, *ayi I don't know what to say shem..heheh* Seriously though, get the BIBLE (all the smartphones have Bibles Apps and we can download now..eeheeeh) Secondly,Go to church, I'ma say it again Go to church, it is important.

ARE YOU FRUITFUL?

Many people desperately want to be successful,eager to have the best life, striving to have the best of life and even though others might seem to just be going with the flow,deep down their heart, they wana have the Best Life. We all do!!! As a person,you did not create yourself, you didn't choose to come from the family you come from, you might even be at a point right now in your life that you never imagined yourself to be.Good or bad, that is where you are now and unless you change your ways of 'doing' you will always be at that point.The Good News is, SomeOne created and pre-destined you for greatness, that is GOD. The question is, are you walking in the path that God has pre-destined you to walk in or have your created your own path? Let's look at the Words of the Master (JESUS) in this Scripture John 15 vs 5-6 "I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned."
Matthew 6 vs 33 " But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you.." How is your life? If you are diligently walking in your pre-destined path, remaining in Him and HE is your NO1, you will know it,it will show, "thy profiting will appear to all" 1 Tim 4vs15. Are you a branch that is bearing/carrying/producing much fruit?.. The master says "without me you can do nothing" this means you can't bear/carry or even produce much fruit. That means your life will be empty, stagnant and eventually you'll the wither and be frustrated,defeated, miserable and depressed. *(Tjo,I refuse shem)*
BUT, we have a MASTER who is Jesus Christ, Glory To God!!!!. We can be bear/carry/ produce much fruit because HE enables us by His divine power and His WORD. All we have to do is to bear/carry/produce fruit/results. Is not this wonderful?.. Why then do we allow ourselves to suffer when JESUS has made our lives so easy, huh? * I refuse shem* It is so very simple, REmain in the Lord, Give yourself to the Lord, To His Word, let HIM be your Lord and Master, know His Word, His ways and watch your life change for the better. Why do we complicate our lives mara heh?. REFUSE TO BE DISCONNECTED FROM THE MASTER. As for me, I refuse to be a branch that doesn't bear much fruit,I refuse to be disconnected. Love Always!!

The Best Description Of Who WE Are

During the Bible Study Prep Class on Sat 11Aug.. This is one of the outstanding revelations that I received: GOD IS LOVE therefore as a cow gives birth to a cow,LOVE gives birth to LOVE, which makes ME LOVE.
Your heart is who you are, you actions express/show forth your heart. So as much as LOVE is expressed by actions, so does your heart. So our actions express/show forth our hearts/LOVE, which is who we really are.
So this is what the Word says in 1Corinthians 13 vs 4 - 8: Love (Mapule) is patient, love (Mapule) is kind. It (Mapule) does not envy, it (Mapule) does not boast, it (Mapule) is not proud. 5 It (Mapule) does not dishonor others, it (Mapule) is not self-seeking, it (Mapule) is not easily angered, it (Mapule) keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love (Mapule) does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It (Mapule) always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.8 Love (Mapule) never fails....
Hmmmmmm! Yep, this is who I am!!!! My actions MUST express this... if not then it means I am NOT my true self,because the ONE who created and birthed me is LOVE. Have a blessed week!!!!!!!!

LOVE IS EXPRESSED BY ACTIONS - LETS SERVE!!

" For the love of Christ controls and urges and impels us, because we are of the opinion and conviction that [if] One died for all, then all died; 15 And He died for all, so that all those who live might live no longer to and for themselves, but to and for Him Who died and was raised again for their sake." 2 Corinthians 5 vs 14-15 AMP
I just marvel at how the Lord Jesus Christ obeyed and stayed committed to The Father's purpose for His life and He knew that He was gonna die like that *sad* and also knew that He'll rise again *smile*, but most importantly it is the Father's love for us that compelled Him to fulfill His purpose. I'll always be grateful to the Lord because He obeyed, imagine if He had changed His mind in the process, yoh!. How ironic that most of the time we wana do what we want NOT what God wants. *Ayi, I'm just saying nje* "Jesus said to them, My food (nourishment) is to do the will (pleasure) of Him Who sent Me and to accomplish and completely finish His work." John 4 vs 34. TJO!!!! *This should be our attitude * In other words, He considered NOT Himself but focused on completing what He was sent to DO. These scriptures say to me 'the tables have turned', ".. the Love of Christ compels,controls/urges/impels ME...and I live not for myself anymore.." This means I consider not myself, I should not be selfish and do what I want. Ha-a,it is NOT about me. It is all about JESUS. It is all about His commandments, He is my Lord/Master, therefore, I do what He says. If He could lay down His life for us, there is clearly more benefits (for us) to do the same as He did, forgetting about ourselves and focusing on the mandate He gave us, which is; "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]" Mark 16 vs 15
The good news is the good news, tell people about the full package of salvation, the Life that The Lord Jesus Christ has made available for all. This is the mandate of every christian, and we do this NOT because of fear or compulsion BUT because... "The Love of Christ compels us.." He died for us, What more could a person do to prove His love.. Open your heart and receive, so that you can serve! Love always!

Introspection: How Tenacious Are You?

I am a very big dreamer, I dream and see things with the eyes of the spirit at anytime and everywhere. I am a very 'light sleeper' and I can only sleep for a few hours then I'm contantly awake and thank God for that, because that gives me more time to dream and 'frame' my 'world'. However the challenge becomes physically trying to make those dreams become reality. I had so many dreams and goals that I 'created' in my mind and created Spiritually, yet when I had to make them come true(Form/Y), I hit some form of a barrier or limitation, then I give in. Another dream... and the cycle will continue like that.. BUT I say, NOT ANYMORE! Glory To God!
The Question here is, How tenacious are we? How adamant, persistent, stubborn, steadfast, determined are we? Knowing who we are, who Jesus Christ has made us to be, how tenacious are we. Are we those people who try and when we hit a wall, we STOP. Nooo! It can't be us, we are victors and more than conquerors, we can't be defeated, Glory To God!. It is high time we stop being 'weaklings', we stop being too soft, too sensitive, too relaxed and 'comfortable'. Be awakened to the fact that there is a life of God in you, Jesus was very strong willed and determined to fulfill God's will and regardless of everything He came across, He never gave up.
That dream and goal you have, why are you giving up on it? Why do you limit yourself? Why do you allow situations and circumstances to reign over you? You owe it to God who has divinely enabled you to become a victor and a success in everything and you owe it to yourself to work it out and excel. Make up your mind to rekindle and awaken every dream you ever had and believe that you are divinely enabled to make it come true, in the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen. It does not end with believing, you need to act on what you believe. "Faith without actions is dead". Have a blessed weekend! Love Always Pules

The KEY to Riches and Honour!!!

"Riches and honour are with me (Wisdom); yea, durable riches and righteousness" - Prov8 vs 18..I urge you to read the whole Chapter (8). Wow! After the glorious women's day event we had yesterday the 9th of August 2012, it can only get better. (I'll post pictures as soon as I have them ready). What I know for sure is, the women who attended that event have been empowered, they are NOT the same as before the event. All Glory Be To GOD!!! On this note; the opening scripture is loaded!!! yet very straight forward nd on point. Riches and honour are with Wisdom, that means riches and honour are attached to wisdom. When you have Wisdom you automatically have riches and honour.. Aaaaah!! Do you see it the the way I do? I hope you do. are you receiving this?.. So, this means that wisdom is a force, it pulls riches and honour, well only when you have IT (Wisdom). So if you want riches and honour, you know what to do; Get Wisdom!!! Remember, you are divinely enabled, you Cannot be defeated and you are Not hopeless! I love you! Pules
