God Wants You!

‘And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul? Is anything worth more than your soul?’ Matt.16:26.

 

You are going to be wealthy in Jesus Name. I am saying this to you authoritatively by the grace of God. Everyone in God’s Favourite House will prosper, it will be impossible for you to remain in God’s Favourite House and be impoverished. But if you insist otherwise, we will kick you out. Money is not the problem. God is more concerned about getting money through you than getting money to you. God is more concerned about the victories He attains in you than the victories He attains for you. In the Read the rest of this entry

A Message For You III

The righteous person faces many troubles, but the Lord comes to the rescue each time’ Ps.34:19.

 

Remember, God says develop a thick skin and a soft heart. You can’t respond to everything you that happens or people say, you will kill yourself. Some of us make it our duty to respond to everything; you will just ware yourself out. Why, because pain is the companion of dreamer. It is possible that some people cannot relate to this right now because you are a dreamer but you don’t have pain. That’s fine, take note and keep it for the future. Craig Groeschel said “the quickest way to forget what God thinks about Read the rest of this entry

A Message For You II

‘Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life. Avoid all perverse talk; stay away from corrupt speech. Look straight ahead, and fix your eyes on that lies before you’ Prov.4:23-25.

 

The Holy Spirit’s second message for you is you need to develop a thick skin and a soft heart. Pain is inevitable. You will hurt and I assure you that you will hurt badly but don’t get hardened. Learn to develop a thick skin and a soft heart and not the converse. The typical thing for many people is they go through things and develop a hard heart and a thin skin. With a thin skin, they get irritated at the slightest thing. They are suspicious of everybody, even the people that mean well. They a hard heart Read the rest of this entry

Not Without Faithfulness

these peeled branches in the watering troughs… when they mated in front of the white-streaked branches, they gave birth to young that were streaked, speckled, and spotted’ Gen.30:37-39

 

Never make how an obstacle. The fact that you don’t know how doesn’t mean it is the end of the road. Don’t make how an obstacle for your vision. The fact that you don’t know how God is going to do it doesn’t mean it is the end of the road for you. While God’s how can be independent of our planning, God’s how cannot be independent of our faithfulness. What does this mean? It goes back to doing the right thing for long enough. More visions are aborted because of unfaithfulness than lack of Read the rest of this entry

God’s Way vs Man’s Way

You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you will name him Jesus. Mary asked the angel, “But how can this happen? I am a virgin.” Luke 1:31 & 34

In those days when a woman has been betrothed and is about to get married, culturally everybody knows who her husband would be and there are plans to get married in a short while. Now imagine you are this woman and God sends an angel to you. God said through the angel “you are going to conceive and have a son and name Him Jesus”. What will come to your mind immediately? You will figure out the how. You will relay the Read the rest of this entry

Waiting Time III

‘But Ruth replied, “Don’t ask me to leave you and turn back. Wherever you go, I will go; wherever you live, I will live. Your people will be my people, and your God will be my God’ Ruth 1:16

 

Waiting time is not wasted time, waiting time is People time. When the king’s baker and the cupbearer told Joseph they had dreams, if it were some of us, as soon as we hear the word dreams, we will run because it was dreams that caused our problems initially. But the dream that brought you into the problem is the same dream that will take you out of the problem. You are coming out; so don’t run from people. People propel us to go Read the rest of this entry

Counsel

‘Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counselors there is safety’ Prov.11:14 [KJV]

 

The fourth thing in authenticating your vision is counsel. I am sure you have heard this before but I will share it again and trust God for fresh revelation. There are five people in my life that I call my advisory board. They know themselves in a way but they have never come together on my account. I don’t make major spiritual decisions without clearing from these five people. So when we were sure that God wanted us to start God’s Read the rest of this entry

Moral Imperative II

‘The Lord said to Moses, “Get going, you and the people you brought up from the land of Egypt…Then Moses said, “if you don’t personally go with us, don’t make us leave this place’ Ex.33:1 & 15.

 

Does your vision deliver a moral imperative? Does your vision deliver a sense of responsibility so strong that it becomes an instruction for you? If you see someone that is lethargic and has no fire in his or her life, it’s a vision issue. It may be a suggestion for other people but for you it is an instruction. For some people it may be a suggestion; they do not have to work in a school for instance. But for me it is an instruction; I can’t do without Read the rest of this entry

Differentiating

O Lord, listen to my cry; give me the discerning mind you promised’ Ps.119:169

The fact that something is possible does not mean it is plausible. The fact that something is possible does not mean you should pursue it. Just differentiating between these two will save you a lifetime of stress. At this point a lot of people would want to know what to look out for. So how do you know what could be that should be, especially now that you know that not everything that could be should be? How do I know what could be that should be? How do I know what dream qualifies to be the vision I should pursue – Read the rest of this entry

A Vulnerable Heart

‘I lie awake thinking of you, meditating on you through the night’ Ps.63:6

 

Everything starts with an idea. Many times when God wants to give us a vision for our lives, He starts by giving us a mental picture –an idea. Some of us get most of our ideas in the bathroom. Have you experienced getting songs in the bathroom? Have you ever wondered why? The reason is that when a lot of people come to church, even though people hear from God in church also, they are full of themselves. They seem like they are Read the rest of this entry
