His Work First


I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.- John 9:4.

The time to work is now, not tomorrow. but now!
It's interesting to note, God created us for a purpose, many are not bothered in discovering for what purpose, because of cares of this life. Rather, they enslave themselves at the peak of their strength, in pursuit of their own dreams and aspirations.
It's unfortunate that when they run out of strength 'at night' as it were, some turn to God when their strength to work is gone; others when afflicted, turned to God, while some lost their life in the process and never get to discover their purpose at all.

"Then I said, I have laboured in vain, I have spent my strength for nought, and in vain: yet surely my judgment is with the Lord, and my work with my God." Isaiah 49:4. 
How is doing our own will at the prime of our strength, a fulfillment of Matthew 6:33?, that says, "...seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." Base on this scripture, many have misplaced priority, and have engaged their will, against God's original plan for their life, in pursuit of their own plans, before God's, in pursuit of things that supposed to additions as seek first, His Kingdom (our purpose).
This does not mean that you shouldn't do anything until you discover it, it simply means do not be cut up with the ones that take away the time and place of the Word of God, in your heart/life.

Meditate on His Word, always.

Jesus is Lord!

Blood Washed

"But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ." Ephesians 2:13 We were afar off because of sin(s): Sin disconnected us from the presence of God. But through the blood of Jesus Christ we that were disconnected from the Father God, are now made nigh (brought closer) to the Father.  It is the blood of Jesus Christ alone that is capable of washing away our sins. Thereby, bringing us into the presence of God like sin never existed in our life. Be cautious of this truth and apply the blood of Jesus for your cleansing.  Jesus is Lord! Mark Enahoro

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....

Victory Of Sin

Do you know that Jesus already paid the price for the sins of every person under heaven? Yes, He has! He die for the world, not just for some selected few, but the whole world, John 3:16. You might say, you mean to tell me He died for the worst gangster, murderer, prostitute as well, yes he did! He paid for their sins as well. Although it is free gift to all, but only those that accept this gift, gets to enjoy its benefits. You may ask again, how can one be close to God, when the urge to commit crime is always active in you? Jesus did not come to save the self  righteous, but sinners unto repentance. It's only when you're in Christ Jesus, listening to His Word, studying the Word of God, and in constant fellowship with Him, that the taste for sin will cool-off, its a gradual possess. Many think, you have to stop sinning first before you can come to Jesus, that will never happen. It's by coming to Jesus, that you receive the grace that empower you to live above sin, ...
