Be STRONG

 



And David was greatly distressed; for the people spake of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and for his daughters: but David encouraged himself in the Lord his God.

1 Samuel 30:6


In life, going through the furnace of affliction will get you to the place of great distress. But like David, encourage yourself in God's Word that cannot fail and stand strong.


David was a man called and anointed to be the king of Israel at the age of 16 (sixteen); but now almost 30 years he have not yet ascended the throne; on the contrary, he has been under perpetual attacks and afflictions, to the point that he had to take refuge in the enemy's territory. 

And now, they have gone to find food for their family (he and his men), only to return to deserted and burnt abode, and their families taken captive.


The Bible says, in verse 4 of same chapter,

"Then David and the people that were with him lifted up their voice and wept, until they had no more power to weep."



You may have gotten to that place despair, where you don't know what else to do, don't run from Him [God] rather to Him.  No matter what happen keep your eyes on Him. That was what King David did, he encouraged himself and seek to hear from God the next step and action.


You see, this was the last stroke, because right after this event, he ascended the throne. Imagine what would have happened had he quit, the tendencies must have been there.


"But he that shall endure unto the end (not mid way), the same shall be saved." Matthew 24:13


I pray for grace to stand strong till the end for someone reading this today, you will not fail, and you shall not faint in God's purpose for you, in Jesus mighty name! God bless you! 


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...

Money truce.

People make reference that "The Bible says money is the root of all  evil...." The Bible didn't say that at all. The Bible says, "For the LOVE of MONEY is the root of all evil" (1Tim.6:10). You could be guilty of that sin and not have a dime. It's not wrong to have money; it's wrong for money to have you. #prosperityreality

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...
