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....

WE KNOW

  We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death. 1 John 3:14 Love is the authentic proof of our salvation. Of course there are different types of love; but I am talking about the Agape love (the God kind of Love). In life you will come across different kind of people even amongst friends and family that will challenge your love walk, tempting you act ugly. But you always find out that there is this strength within that makes you love them all the same. It does not mean you wouldn't be angry. The scripture say, be yea angry and sin not. It's just for a moment, and you'd be right back with your love walk. When you're angry and it's allowed to linger over a period of time, you need to examine yourself, you may have drifted off alittle and if allowed to linger, you will be a long way off-course, and a long way from home (in Christ). Be quick to forgive and love, as it is the proof of life....

PROSPER

 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 3 John 1:2. The mind consist of one's will, intellect and emotions; which is the soul of man. At salvation the spirit of man; which is also referred to as the heart gets quickened or made alive (But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible,... ) 1 Peter 3:4  The heart is saved, the soul is not. You [we] have a duty to save our soul; and it has to be done through studying the word and meditating upon the word, that's when the transformation of mind/soul begins. Romans 12:2  "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your MIND, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." As you spend more time in the Word of God; like a mirror you beginning to see your true identity from it. This is the reason we are admonished to study the Word of God. Satan knows this, so he tries...
