STRATEGIES

Image
M any times God tells us things that will happen in the near  future and we're all hyped, elated, and enthusiastic about what He has said He will do. Have you however wondered why some of those things are yet to manifest for you??? Today, we look at two examples from scriptures of people like is, who got a word from God and what their reactions were. First up is the Israelites... In Judges 20, from verse 18, one of the tribes -Benjamin- in Israel had done wrong and had to be punished. The other tribes asked God whether they could go to fight Benjamin and God said they could... But then, guess what? They were beaten by that small tribe! Twice!!! And both times they asked God before going, so what could have gone wrong? Well, they tried a third time and this time, they won... What changed? STRATEGY. Sometimes, doing the same thing the same way won't bring your desired result. The truth is many times, we move ahead of ourselves and ahead of God's will for us......

Prayers That Avail Much

Image
Happy new month!!!๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿ’ƒ On "Prayers that avail much" today, we will look at another of Apostle Paul's powerful prayers - Ephesians 1:16-19. Don't just skim through the verses. Really read through, meditate on the lines and then pray them with all fervency. I have copied a few translations for better understanding. There are four major things that jumped at me when I read these verses. You might as well pay attention to them. ~ Intimacy ~ Revelation/illumination ~ Clarity of assignment ~ The greatness of His power in me! A tip for the singles: Pray these verses over your would-be spouse and your children๐Ÿ˜‰ You'll see the manifestation in due time. Let begin making prayers!!! "I couldn’t stop thanking God for you—every time I prayed, I’d think of you and give thanks. But I do more than thank. I ask—ask the God of our Master, Jesus Christ, the God of glory—to make you intelligent and discerning in knowing him personally, your eyes focused and...

God is faithful! God is FAITHFUL!! GOD IS FAITHFUL!!! I believe someone needs to hear that today... Yes, you're going through 'stuff' but your God is still faithful ! You can bank on His word. You can be sure that He will see you through the 'stuff' you're passing through. In a moment, you'll be out of this phase and on to a greater/better one! The Bible says God won't give you more than you can bear but will make  a way of escape for you! So, whatever it will take for you, His son/daughter, to come out victorious, God is willing and ready to do it! It may not come at the time you want it however, rest in the truth that it will come at just the right time. I myself, am going through such a season... But I am unshaken, because I can stake my life on God's word and promises!!! Every word of His has the capacity  to accomplish what He has sent it to do! It has the creative power to bring into reality things that were  once only dreams and fant...

Prayers That Avail Much

Image
Hello there! Welcome and happy new month! Every once in a while, we will take a look at some amazing prayers from scriptures. We will look at one of such today and then, we will take some time to pray... Yes, pray☺ I can imagine that someone just went "oh, no!"๐Ÿ˜ The truth is many of us would prefer a million times to rather study than pray (I see you๐Ÿ˜‰). But as much as I'd encourage you to study the word as it helps you pray the right prayers and pray with understanding, I encourage you also to pray. Pray, pray and keep praying. Never stop! There was a time in my life when I really didn't feel like praying. I would study but prayer wasn't just it because my heart was too burdened. At that point, I remembered something someone once said: You may not always feel like praying but the key to praying when you don't feel like it is to pray . The truth is there's no shortcut to prayer. The only way to continue praying whatever the situation, is to pray...

Listen And Be Edified

Hello! Welcome again! On listen and be Edified today, we will listen to and meditate on another powerful song. This song was done by Elevation worship and features Travis Greene and Kierra Sheard. I'm triple sure the lyrics will minister to you greatly. The last part of this song reminds me about the power of testimonies. Sometimes, all we need to find the strength to carry on is to remember what we have been through and how God came through for us. I'll share some of my testimonies: I remember once when I was young, myself and my Mum were on our way to my school. She was driving. All of a sudden, this trailer came out of nowhere, hit us and then kept dragging us until we were off the road, and then the driver stopped. Amazingly, the accident was on my side of the vehicle but I came out without any issues (except the trauma), and I still attended school that day. Meanwhile, the car was written off! Another time, I had this severe stomach pain the doctors diagnos...

Happy Easter!!!

Someone may be wondering, but we've already concluded the Easter celebration... Well, what Jesus did for us is meant to be celebrated every single day we have breath, forever!!!๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿ’ƒ So today, we will have a brief discourse on the reason Himself, Jesus๐Ÿ˜„ Feel free to leave your comments below๐Ÿ˜‰ All through last weekend and even before the season began, one thing has been on my mind: Jesus's finished work for me must not be in vain. There are two ways to look at this. His work could be in vain if we allow sin to reign over us again like it did to Adam, and it could also be in vain if we still go through every other negative thing He went through, when He went through those things so we would no longer experience them. What do I mean? The first point is clear to many of us. The book of Romans helps us understand that Jesus won the victory for us over sin and therefore we do not have to be slaves to sin any more. We simply have to exercise our God-given authori...

Stagger not at the Promise - 2

Hello! Thank you for being here!☺ If you haven't read the first part of this article, please do so. It will bless you☺ Sometimes, out of frustration from not seeing the manifestation of God's promises, we begin to think about the things that may have gone wrong. In this post, we will together cross out some things from that list of things that could go wrong so you can focus on the ones relevant to you. First of all, God's word can never be at fault. Someone may be thinking, are you sure? Can't there be just one incident where He probably said something He didn't mean, or something He won't do? Hmmm... The truth dear friend, is this: The fault is never from God's word or promise. God's word is yea and amen (2 Cor 1:20)! It is always true and He always means what He says... Always! He does not lie and He won't joke with something as important as your life! And the promise doesn't expire until it accomplishes what it was sent to do (Isa ...
