God still does mighty things.

God is still doing mighty things.

I love that I am actually saying this. I write this as my reality, my definition of God in my reality.

 This year 2020 has really been a difficult year for the world at large because of the COVID-19 pandemic. EVERY single person had to have a lifestyle change in some way or the other. Worst still, many lost their lives, which is so saddening. But what does God expect of us in this season? Something that is not so in order with the human reasoning, which is ‘thanksgiving’

 1Thes5:18 says- ‘In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.’

 I am really just thankful for the good, the not so good and everything In-between.

 I am so much grateful for the possibilities that God gave me to crown up this year. This last quarter of the year is really when I have come to know God in an amazing way.

Basically, my story is like that of the three Hebrew boys in ….Dan.3:16-18. who were desirous of staying on Gods side but were pressured to go on the side of the king of Babylon. They were resolute on only one option; God shows or we die here.

 Dan.3:16-18

16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter.

17 If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.

18 But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.

 

Amazingly, God showed up for them, not when they were talking, not when they were being thrown inside but when they got right into the fire. This resulted in the king and the whole nation submitting to the almighty God.

I don’t know what you are going through or desiring from God, but I want you to know today that God can show up in a manner that’s so different from what you would have imagined, and thats what makes him God. Scripture says God’s ways are not our ways and His thoughts are not like our thoughts (Isaiah.55:8). So, please keep the faith, trust the Lord, and take the right actions you know to do. Also, commit your steps/ways unto the Lord.

Scripture says commit your plans unto him and He will establish your path.(Pr.16:3, Pr.37:5)

Submitting our ways to God allows us to easily obey when He interjects our plans or decides to take us through a different route.

He knows all the paths dear son/daughter of God

 

God still does mighty things.

 

Yours in the Lord,

Doors Do Open

Have you ever felt like you have exhausted all of your options and you can’t seem to find a way out?  Or you know that there is more that can be out of a case you are on? I can’t imagine what the widow whose husband left some debts for her to pay before he died must have gone through. Wait, you think all that happened is all there is. In the sense, you have pressed all your buttons and made all your moves. Knocked all the doors you know and made the calls. You now think its over. You think there’s no way out again? Be there! You seem to have forgotten so quick that God is the one that makes things happen. Look at the widow whose husband left her in debt. She was broke. No money no possession my sons up for sale kindof broke. Her two sons were going to be taken captive to pay for the debts that was on ground. Of course she was devastated. She had no possession to sell to get some money. The only thing she knew to do was to go meet Elisha who her husband served with. ...

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...

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...
