Faith, Rest!



And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.- Mark 11:21

What I observed from this passage of scripture is that after the conversation between Jesus Christ and the tree, he spoke these last words to the tree, "And Jesus answered and said unto it, NO MAN EAT FRUIT OF THEE HEREAFTER FOR EVER. And his disciples heard it." Mark 11:14. 
Thereafter, He completely removed the conversation between him and that tree from His thought. And, He did not, stop-by every now and then, to see if the words he spoke to the tree was coming to pass or not.
The Bible said, it was Peter, who called to his remembrance, what had happened to the tree, and he said in verse 23 and 24, in other words, once you have faith in God and you say a thing, believe that you have the answer and it will be so.
The thing with us is that, once we profess our faith; all the time we go back and forth, trying to see the process. Well, it is not our job to know how, it is God's. Jesus said in the book of John 14:10, the Father is the one doing the works. His is to declare it and the Father will confirm it or bring it to pass. And, as the Father had sent him, even so he has sent us, John 20:21.
Also John 14:13 says, 
"... whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son." 

What I am simply saying is that, once the subject matter is ascertained that it is the will of God. Ours is to declare it, His is to perform it. It is not our job to perform or confirm, let's get this right. Isaiah 44:26 says it this way for clarity,
"That CONFIRMETH the WORD of HIS SERVANT, and PERFORMETH the COUNSEL of HIS MESSENGERS;..."

Well, I think I will stop here today, looking forward to hearing your testimonies.

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....

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...

Extremely Blessed!

A gift is as a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it: whithersoever it turneth, it prospereth. – Proverbs 17:8 If I could give you a gift this Christmas, the Word is what I'd give you. I'd rather give it to you than a check for a million dollars. Because you can run through a million dollars real quick, but the truth of God's Word never quits—and it will get you out of situations a million dollars can't get you out of. Ken and I are just ordinary people. But when we latched on to God's Word, we latched on to something out of the ordinary, something that changed our lives. Every area of our lives. Nothing that's happened to us has happened because of us. It's happened because of God's Word. In fact, I don't even have to know you to promise you this: If you'll give God's Word your full attention—and not be afraid of His will for your life—you're going to be happier and more prosperous than anything you could ever dream up. O...
