Do Not Stop!
Luke 11:9-10 “…keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened.”
Why do you ask God for something several times? Just ask once and let it be. Or don’t you have faith? Have you heard people say this? I have had several people say it to me, several times. Relax, that is what they know. Read the rest of this entry
Strike It Out!
Isaiah 41:21 “Produce your cause, saith the Lord; bring forth your strong reasons, saith the King of Jacob.” (KJV)
The fact that some prophet said something does not mean your fate is sealed. Prophecies are not sentences; you are to wage war with them. The one you do not accept, cancel it. Read the rest of this entry
Strong Case
Isaiah 38:1 “In those days Hezekiah was sick and near death. And Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, went to him and said to him, “Thus says the Lord: ‘Set your house in order, for you shall die and not live.’” (NKJV).
The judgement had just been delivered to Hezekiah by the number one prophet in the land. For many people, that is a death sentence, but not Hezekiah. Read the rest of this entry
Justified
Luke 18:3&5 “A widow of that city came to him repeatedly, saying, ‘Give me justice in this dispute with my enemy.’ …this woman is driving me crazy. I’m going to see that she gets justice, because she is wearing me out with her constant requests!’”
Yesterday, we learnt that mercy is what stops the hand of judgment. Mercy leads to justification. Justification simply means just as if you never sinned. Read the rest of this entry
Stand!
Ephesians 6:13 “Therefore take up the whole armour of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.” (NKJV)
The school fees are due. The schools are writing, threatening to kick the children out of school. The bills are piling on the table. Read the rest of this entry
Pass The Test
Philippians 4:6 “Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.”
There is no promotion without a test. You may be going through your test right now. You are being ignored, and things appear not to be working. Read the rest of this entry
The Process
2 Corinthians 4:17 “For our momentary, light distress [this passing trouble] is producing for us an eternal weight of glory [a fullness] beyond all measure [surpassing all comparisons, a transcendent splendour and an endless blessedness]!” (AMPC)
Four big-picture things you need to keep in mind to help you keep pushing and praying. The first is God Sees. God Knows. God Rewards. The second is All Things Are Working For Your Good. Read the rest of this entry
A Lesson
Luke 18:6-7 “Then the Lord said, “Learn a lesson from this unjust judge. Even he rendered a just decision in the end. So don’t you think God will surely give justice to his chosen people who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off?” (emphasis added).
The prerequisite for getting God’s Hand of Judgement to work in your favour is, “…cry out to him…”. You have to cry out to God. Your voice has to be heard on high. Read the rest of this entry
Desire
John 7:37-39 “On the last and most important day of the festival, Jesus stood up and shouted, “If you are thirsty, come to me and drink! Have faith in me, and you will have life-giving water flowing from deep inside you, just as the Scriptures say.” Jesus was talking about the Holy Spirit…” (CEV)
Do you want God to lay His hands on you? Do you want your life to be filled with the Holy Spirit? The first of four things is DESIRE. Read the rest of this entry
