A promise

Who is a king
A king is royalty: thats honor.
A king is in charge of a particular area of space/ people :   A king has the final say over the people in an area: that's influence.
A king is a custodian of wealth: thats riches.
That position in itself is a place of power.

Isaiah 49:23: Kings shall be your foster fathers, And their queens your nursing mothers;
They shall bow down to you with their faces to the earth, And lick up the dust  of your feet. Then you will know that I am the LORD, For they shall not be ashamed who wait for Me. "

Simply, there are people on this earth who stand as kings even though they don't occupy the position of a king. In the sense,they've got power, influence, riches and even expanses of land that are way beyond your comprehension.  They may live in regular houses, ride regular cars and relate with regular people but they are much more than they reveal. They would usually even sit next to you in a public place.

Basically, this scripture paints a picture of how God can make people of influence and wealth (in areas we are not as wealthy) to tilt in our favor.
Somewhere in that passage says that they'll lick up the dust of your feet..  
It won't be a literal licking of feets,however,it may be in clothing and housing or network of people (relationships)  you e couldn't have accessed on your ur own. It could be in form of wealth of experiences or places you e could not reach by yourself. The feet is an indication of 'hustle'; a person whose feels are ladened with dust has definitely done some hard labor.

And so I want to encourage you not to keep God out of your business(everything that has to do with you).
It's in waiting for him while we stay committed to our business that we see him show up. And that's just the things about God, there's always a waiting season, where God would require us to consistently look to him for big things...Just invade you are weary or you're getting weary, God said wait, just wait, hang on in there for a bit,and you'll see the goodness of the Lord.

God bless you abundantly.

With Peace and Love,

Grace.

The Black Bag

Running over from the end of the class where I was sitting to my course mate,I sat on the chair next to him as I placed his school bag on my legs. Staring at the bag for a while,I said, precious Holy Spirit please teach me a lesson from this bag. It was a black leather-like bag with patches on the side(some parts of the bag peeled off). As I starred at the bag I asked my course mate-How old is this bag? He said to me,its about a year old. Its amazing how people tend to defend their actions even before you make your comment(He was already giving me reasons the bag looked that old/tattered). I discovered the bag was too good to be that tattered at less than one year. That was the lesson right there: There are people who are strong and passionate,vibrant and active,with so much beauty radiating from their inside out. But then situations in life may rise up,some beyond human control,some at the mercy of human that could make someone as good as that black leather bag become so tattered li...

Lesson One: Knowing 'your' God

There are 7.4 billion people on earth. Findings say adults make 35,000 decisions daily while babies make 3000 decisions(you didn't know that,did you?). About 3.2 billion fall within the age range of 15-44years of age. Very few things bring life and excitement or enthusiasm like a new idea you think is so great. It could almost take all your attention and mind.You can almost have an 'action rush' , as you would go all the way out just to get your idea to come into reality. Note that an action rush is different from a 'steady build '. Like any other great thing in life, challenges,especially unprecedented will arise (many of them disrupting your plan!) I came to realize that nothing beats a person who not just has an idea but knows God. I got to this point in 2015 where I just had to settle to really find my God and grow my faith. What exactly does it mean to know God? Knowing God is like enlarging your understanding of God and establishing a personal strong be...

Gods word as our reality

If anything would go through our spirit to our soul and then to reality,its going to pass through our mind. And if anything is going to have an impact on the spirit it would go through the mind. And so the mind is the place where a thing really is made or mared. It's where we either get an headway or remain stranded/on the same spot/can't see a way. It's the battlefield as it's often put. 2Cor.10:5 Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; This passage makes us to see that imaginations and thoughts have a way of exhausting themselves above the knowledge of God in our minds and we are the ones to do the job of making sure the word of God is the status quo of our mind...finding out what the word of God says and making it preeminence over and above any other thought. re-enforcing what the word of God says. Capturing God's idea(word) in ou...
