Stagger not at the promise...

Still on this promise matter...😃 


It's still early in the year but I know some have already began wavering...😊 How do I know? Well, we know ourselves 😉 

All I want to do today, as always, is encourage you. 

From now until the end of the year, situations will come to test whether you actually believed God's promises to you this year, or you're acting based on trial and error😊. Temptations to forget the promises and find a "human" or alternative way out of your circumstances will come all through this year, but I urge you to hang on!

God is too faithful and loyal to His word to go against it, and He has said He won't leave you, and that His word doesn't return to Him without accomplishing its purpose. 

So, snap out of the pity party and begin confessing God's promises to you regardless of the appearance of that circumstance! The Bible says that those who possessed their promises did it through FAITH and PATIENCE. You cannot possess yours without these fruits of the Spirit. 

Faith it until it comes to pass! Be patient until your appointed time comes! Don't give up on God's promises to you at a quarter to the appointed time. Don't stagger at the promises. Stand firm! Hang on to every word of God as though it were your life. Take them personal! You can either choose to be encouraged and stand firm on His promises or give up without any hope to cling to. People who are successful have something they cling on to. It could be either temporal or eternal but they hang on to something. What are you hanging on to?

For me, this isn't a year to be lukewarm, nonchalant or lazy when it comes to spiritual things. I must birth all that God has earmarked for me this year! I refuse to be cheated!

So I implore you today, stagger not at the promise.

Enjoy and meditate on "Say the word" below. Shalom!

Your friend,
Precious.

Have you ever wondered how the negative occurrences that took place in your childhood didn't take you out? Some of us did really terrible things when we were young... I'm trying hard not to shake this table but I actually heard of someone who, while playing, locked himself up in the freezer when he was young! How did he survive it?! God alone knows!  Well, as I was saying before the diversion, some of us did terrible things when we were young but for some others, terrible things happened to us. Some were abused physically, sexually, mentally etc. in their childhood, some had a child/children out of wedlock, some were terribly ill, some experienced difficulties in learning, some had their parents abandon them, and some people (like me😂) were rescued from 'falling' into a relationship that would have landed them where they shouldn't be. Everyone has a different story to tell, but did it ever occur to you that you're standing because somehow those things didn'

Free Expert Editing for Authors and Startup Organisations

Hello! Welcome again to the blog!  I believe that your month went beautifully well -- goals were smashed, challenges were overcome, and you impacted at least one life positively. No worries if you still have some goals to smash. March isn't over yet😉  I come with exciting news! Tia Edits is currently running a free editing program for authors (or soon-to-be authors😎) and startup organisations . Yes, it's absolutely free. The need for this came while I was thinking about how to contribute to startup organisations by helping them push out error-free content. I also decided to add authors to the program because, as an author myself, I know how important the editing stage is to the success of any book. The package for authors includes editing three books from three authors over a period of 6 months, while that for organisations ( startups, small businesses,  online businesses etc.) includes editing the content of 2 organisations twice weekly, over a period of 2 months.  After tw

  Hey you! It's a been a whiiiilllllleee!😁 I know, and I apologise. I just kept saying "I'll write next month", until I went 3 months without writing! The dangers of procrastination😶 How have you been though? I trust all is well with you and yours. Today, I'd like to briefly share something that was on my heart at the beginning of the year and I've recently been reminded of. It took me a while to decide on what the topic would be as I wasn't sure how to capture it in one short phrase, but it became clear as I typed this. At the beginning of the year, we were told at my local assembly that it would be a year of wonders, and that God was set to work wonders in our lives. Of course, this got everyone excited as we anticipated the miraculous in every area of our lives. However, as I prayed that my family and I would see wonders, the Holy Spirit began to open my eyes to the fact that the wonders we were expecting wouldn't happen as many think; rather, it
