Give Thanks!
“Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever. Ps.136:1 [emphasis added].
Many times we do not stop to say thank you profusely enough at God’s goodness. Let your thanksgiving be commensurate to how much you desired the breakthrough. If the breakthrough requires you to fast and pray, maybe the testimony should require you to dance and rejoice. Dance before God. Rejoice before your Maker. Give thanks to the God that has spared you and kept you in spite of the pain. With all that we are if we are anything at Read the rest of this entry
A Crown
“You crown the year with a bountiful harvest; even the hard pathways overflow with abundance” Ps.65:11
I am declaring over you today that God will crown this year with His goodness for you in Jesus Name. What does it mean to crown? A crown signifies three things; first thing is a crown dignifies, adorns, and it honors. A crown on your head is a sign of dignity and honor, it adorns you. I am praying in the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth that before this year runs out, you will be dignified, you will be adorned, and you will be honored. God will crown this year with His goodness for Read the rest of this entry
Is That All?
“Give thanks to the Lord, for he good! His faithful love endures for ever” Ps.136:1
It is only the living that can complain but guess what it is also only the living that can give thanks to God. Which would it be for you? Regardless of what you are going through, the fact that you are alive shows that God is not done with you yet and this is reason enough to give thanks. Many times we do not give the thanksgiving that is commensurate to our breakthrough, or even commensurate to our request for the breakthrough. We pray and wait on God for something Read the rest of this entry
How To… VI
“Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others” Col.3:13 [emphasis added].
Everybody has a fault. We are all faulty. When we get to heaven we will be perfect. The Bible did not say be faultless with one another. The Bible did not say do not offend one another. You will get offended but the Bible says make allowance. If I know this person is talkative, I am not saying the person is a gossip, I am saying talkative – two different things. If the Read the rest of this entry
The Way Of Men!
“His delight is in the fear of the Lord, and He shall not judge by the sight of His eyes, nor decide by the hearing of His ears” Isa.11:4 [NKJV]
Physical pleasure is one of the greatest problems that everyone, male and female, have to triumph over. Of all the three, physical pleasure ranks at the top, particularly in our time. The craving for physical pleasure is also known as the lust of the flesh. The third man said, ‘…I now have a wife, so I can’t come’ Luke 14:20. The Bible says Read the rest of this entry
Reliable God!
“Yet God has made everything beautiful for its own time. He has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of God’s work from beginning to end” Ecc.3:11
Reliability is something that we crave in our relationships. If you are in any kind of relationship with anyone, you will subconsciously crave for the person to be at least reliable. Imagine having colleagues that are not reliable and having to work on the same project with them. As a businessman, imagine having some employees that are Read the rest of this entry
More Than Enough
‘However, we don’t want to offend them, so go down to the lake and throw in a line. Open the mouth of the first fish you catch, and you will find a large silver coin. Take it and pay the tax for both of us” Matt.17:27.
Live each day confident that God has already provided. It is not when God asks you to sacrifice that He begins to look for bread for you to eat. Have you not heard? He provides seed for the sower and bread for the eater? [2Cor.9:10]. If God says He has made resources available to you then be confident whether you can see them or not. Just know that this situation is not taking God unawares. I may not have the resources but I know God Read the rest of this entry
Not Without Gratitude
‘Enter his gates with thanksgiving; go into his courts with praise. Give thanks to him and praise his name. For the Lord is good. His unfailing love continues forever, and his faithfulness continues to each generation’ Ps.100:4-5
The third thing you need to know about gratitude is you cannot be all you are made to be without being grateful. In other words, you cannot fulfill your destiny if you are not grateful. Gratitude is very important because it is your environment that determines what grows and what dies in you. If you put a grain of corn on top of your fridge and you check years after, it will still be a grain of corn. But if you put that same grain of corn in fertile Read the rest of this entry
Gratitude Equals Peace
‘And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace. And always be thankful’ Col.3:15
The first thing we need to know about gratitude is that you cannot be peaceful if you are not grateful. If you find out that there is turmoil in your heart. If you find out that there are consistent storms in your life, then check your gratitude because worry and gratitude don’t live together. Worry and gratitude cannot live together; it is Read the rest of this entry
Acknowledge IV
‘For the Lord is good. His unfailing love continues forever, and his faithfulness continues to each generation’ Ps.100:5
The fourth thing that you and I must acknowledge is that He is good. This is very profound. You can own something and be mean to that thing. But God is not mean. God is good. Say it out loud – God is good all the time. The Lord is good. So you and I can approach God knowing that we are approaching a good God. We can come to God knowing that we are coming into the presence of a good God that made us and owns us, and He is God. Read the rest of this entry
