Do Not Faint!


Yea, they spake against God; they said, Can God furnish a table in the wilderness? Behold, he smote the rock, that the waters gushed out, and the streams overflowed; can he give bread also? can he provide flesh for his people?
- Psalm 78:19-20

I actually think their complaining was beyond food, but the uncertainty of the future. They did trust God enough for the abundant life they want and have been promise them. The thought of moving from one place to another, with obstacles on their way, eating manna all their life becloud their reasoning, after they have failed the initial test, when 10 out the 12 persons sent to spy Canaan land brought back an evil report. Remember, there was no case that it has happened this way to any group of individuals before, except stories and promises. Also, the devil was working behind the scene, instigating them to doubt and rebel against God. So you may want to sympathize with them. Because we may have done more so.

In life, there maybe doubt as to how God intend to see you through the seemingly impossible situation one is faced with?! It is not our job to know how, it is our job to believe that God's will, and follow through His instructions. It call Faith! That is the only way out. believe it a done deal with Him, then you will have the answer; this my friend, is a WORK!!!

Once faith is involve, things will certainly turn out successful.

God honours faith, Hebrew 11:6, "But without faith it is impossible to please him:.." 
The children of Israel had at this time seen some amazing miracles, signs and wonders on their journey till this point. Yet, they doubted.
I know, it may seem difficult with troubles on every side.
But, Apostle Paul puts it this way, in 2 Corinthians 1:8-9.
"For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia(life), that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that we despaired even of life: But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raiseth the dead:" they eventually came through, you too can!

All I can do, is to encourage you. But, you have to believe God to strengthen you by faith, through the trials. For surely trials will come in life. But, Psalm 91:15 says,
"He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I WILL BE WITH HIM in TROUBLE; I WILL DELIVER HIM, and HONOUR HIM." so there are times we are faced with these things, that when we must trust that God is able to deliver us out from all of it and He will honour us as well.

The world awaits your manifestation, as stated in, Romans 8:19.
There is light at the end of the tunnel. God can do exceedingly, abundantly and above our expectations. Ephesians 3:20. Do not give up!

Have a blessed week!

SETTLED SOUL

  Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3 John 1:2 The state of one's mind [ soul ] determines his/her place in destiny. In life people are forced to bow to pair pressure or any other kind of pressure when they don't have a stable mind, or let's say the person have identity issue.  When Satan tempted Christ Jesus on His way from the wilderness after forty days prayer and fasting, what was the first question he asked Him? "if thou be the Son of God" if Jesus had had identity issue, he would have fallen for temptation in the view to show off, as a result lost His place and purpose. Knowing fully well that God had said, "... Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased." Lk. 3:22. Before embarking on the wilderness expenditure.  When you know who you are in the Word of God and are established in it; you wouldn't bow to the pressure of the world, because you see things differently....

SPIRITUAL KNOWING

  But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spake against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming. Acts 13:45 In life you will face some vicious attacks from people, their reasons may seem reasonable to many [natural minds]; but their real intent, concealed. From the above text, observe the real reason the Jews were contradicting what the Apostles had said. When they saw the multitudes, they became envious. But they wouldn't come out to show their real intent; but will work up something else as the main reason.  This is why as a Christian, you can't allow yourself to be limited by the things you see, hear or feel, because they can be deceptive. The Holy Spirit is the revealer of truth, let Him guide you into all truth.  "For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy." Mark 15:10 Go beyond the physical, and sense realm. Go spiritual [there's a spiritual knowing].  Jesus is Lord!  Mark Enah...

BE RESOLUTE

  For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me. John 6:38 If you need to, you may; examine yourself and see, can the above statement be true of you or about you? Because in life you will face obstacles and challenges that will press and push you to extreme limit or out of measure to a breaking point [in despair of life, according to Apostle Paul]. These things happens in other to make you change course; but stand thou resolute.  Jesus said, persecutions will arise for the Word sake.  In Matthew 26:39, Jesus was praying "... O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt." While on the cross, Jesus cried out, "... My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"  Well..., the Father didn't go anywhere, but the heat of the situation(s) make it look that way.  Enroute the promise land, there are a lot of obstacles; there is nothing easy about it. Sure the Devil makes it d...
