DON'T SETTLE FOR LESS

  



And David said to Achish, Surely thou shalt know what thy servant can do. And Achish said to David, Therefore will I make thee keeper of mine head for ever.

1 Samuel 28:2


Most times we focus on the promotion of men that we loose focus of God's original plan and purpose for our life [promotion that comes from God]. As a result settle for existence, instead of reigning and ruling in life.


In 1 Samuel 29:7 the scripture says, 

"Wherefore now return, and go in peace, that thou displease not the lords of the Philistines."


In our quest to gain favour and promotion we compromise; God doesn't want that.

David wanted to help Achish to fight to prove his loyalty, what would've happened had he gone is another thing. Things could've turned either way; he was in a fix, so God stepped in.

David is ordained to be a king, not a chief of staff to someone else. But frustration and pressure could've made him loose focus, thereby bend the knees. As a result a glorious destiny would've been eroded. 


This is a clear picture and behind the scene events of life. At every junction we are faced with a choice; either to allow God have His way, or force our way to create our own path.

Steps taken without God endangers our destiny.


Jesus is Lord!

Press In

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly.... – Colossians 3:16 Things in this old world aren't getting any better, and in recent times, the Holy Spirit has been speaking an urgent message to my heart. He's been saying, Press in. Draw in to a more intimate relationship with your heavenly Father. If you don't, you won't make it. If you do, you will see more glorious outpourings of God than you can imagine. That message isn't just for me. It's also for you—and for every other believer on the earth today. We are in the last of the last days of this age. Jesus is coming soon. It's an exciting time, but it's also a dangerous time. Those who don't do what the Spirit says, who don't press in to the Lord, are going to go from disaster to disaster. But those who do will defeat the disasters and turn them into glory, in Jesus' Name! Your first step in drawing closer to God is to realize that you know God first in His Word. Time spent meditating i...

The Needful or Obvious Pt.1

And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her. - Luke 10:41-42. Nobody just happened, we are created for specific purpose. Everybody cannot be head, or leg, or hand etc., each and everyone most identify their place and stay there, thus makeup the body system. The leg cannot say the hand is not performing its functions adequately, as a result, he will take its functions over. The leg would be led by the obvious and abuse its own purpose instead, why? He was not created to perform the function of the hand. When these things are properly understood, it will help us to gain speed towards the fulfillment of our purpose. Everyone will give account of his or her stewardship, when the time comes, what will be your report, when all that you have been doing is the obvious(somebody else's assignment), and ignoring yours or ...
