Reflect On These


And now we call the proud happy; yea, they that work wickedness are set up; yea, they that tempt God are even delivered. 18. Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not.Malachi 3:15,18. 

I have heard complaints from different quarters, people agonizing their stay at home, as they have run out of provision.
But let's reflect on our life how we have being living our lives. On many occasion we have heard of cases where people were murdered in cold blood, they were probably the breadwinner in their family; how did you react to such cases? or missionaries that held captive by their captures, some murdered? Did these tragic and hideous acts pricked you? Did you take a moment to pray for these individuals?
These are souls, being wasted, murdered in cold blood. These people had purpose in life, their destinies cut short, in circumstances that could have been prevented and avoided, but due to lack of adequate security, negligence, greed of man, hatred toward others.
These blood cries for vengeance everyday, not to talk of the countless numbers of abortion, and actions of people as though there is no God.
These things happen around us daily, yet no empathy, we go about our daily routine like nothing happened. The evildoers and wicked fist on destinies daily, they continue to have field day in their atrocities. There is a saying, "evil thrive when good people refuse to act."

Reflect on these, search yourself, I'm not condemning anyone, but we can change things from now onward.
Our attitude and actions have held God back to rescue us, because men have failed to acknowledge Him, and call on Him, Who has spared us on many occasion, all we do is complain upon complaints.
I am not calling for a prayer meeting. There are things you know personally that you ought to have been doing, yet have ignored it, and kept procrastinating; get to it, start today. Everyone have specific task they ought to be doing, but have hitherto left it unattended for filthy lucre sake. It is time to return. Else, many will be held accountable for the things of God they have ignored in pursuit of their own self centered glory rooted in pride.
May God have mercy. Because even in this pandemic, things have not really changed. If care is taken, this may prolong, many think once the vaccine is out it will all be over, really?! Except the Lord build a house, it is in vain to build one.

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...
