GOD IS WITH YOU

There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee. (Joshua 1:5 KJV)

I want to talk about Haman and Mordecai today. Haman was a man of honour. he had practically everything yet he sought the death of Mordecai who sat at the king’s gate. He looked for way to destroy not only Mordecai, but the Jews throughout the whole kingdom of Xerves because Mordecai would not kneel down or pay him honour. Haman did all he could but Mordecai was honoured in the end. It was unfortunate that Haman got to know the truth at the last hour. His wise advisers and his wife said,

“Since Mordecai—this man who has humiliated you—is of Jewish birth, you will never succeed in your plans against him. It will be fatal to continue opposing him.” (Esther 6:13 NLT).

He was hanged on the gallows he had prepared for Mordecai. He failed because God was with His people.

They will fight you, but they will fail.
For I am with you, and I will take care of you.
I, the LORD, have spoken!” (Jeremiah 1:19 NLT)

The scripture says

“Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise.” (Hebrews 10:23 NLT).

God can be trusted to keep his promise. Be encouraged today that they will fight you, but they will fail. They will plan, but their plans will fail. And it will be fatal for them to continue opposing you. God is with you, and He will take care of you.

God bless you!

Posted in FAITH, SOUL FOOD

GOD HASN’T GIVEN UP ON YOU

We talk about faith and encourage people to walk by faith but sometimes it is difficult to shift our focus from the storm. The storm could be the doctor’s report, your grades in school, your performance at work, the chaos at home, rejection, addictions, no job, no food on the table, etc. sometimes it becomes difficult to shift our focus from them when we see them right in front of us to focus on Jesus or believe in God’s promises concerning our lives.

Abraham encountered similar storm. He was about 90 years with no child and his wife had passed childbearing age. Her womb was as good as dead. When Sarah heard that she would bear a child at that age, the scripture says she laughed (because it didn’t make sense to her).
I know what about to say today may not make sense considering the fact that you have report about your situation on your desk. But please hear me;

God doesn’t depend on human knowledge. Thus what we think or see as impossible is possible with Him. All He needs from you now is your total trust in His Son Jesus Christ and He will take care of you.

For forty years you sustained them in the wilderness, and they lacked nothing. Their clothes did not wear out, and their feet did not swell! (Nehemiah 9:21 NLT)

If you continue trying to figure out how you are going to solve the problem your way, I am sorry to say that you will be consumed. Instead, leave everything to God. When Abraham believed, He had Isaac at 100. Praise The Lord!

Friend, God hasn’t given up on you so Keep on asking, Keep on seeking, and Keep on knocking. Know that He is faithful, and He will do all He has promised concerning your life in Jesus’ Name. Amen!

God bless you.

WHY DO YOU WORRY?

sparrows 1Have you ever seen a worried bird with deep wrinkles on its brow,or one with bleary blood-shot eyes caused by sleepless night of worry?

Have you ever seen a bird worried about who would pay mortgage on its nest?

Birds don’t worry or fret because they have absolute trust in God for their safety and survival.

If birds are safe in His hands, WHAT ABOUT YOU?

The Lord says ” Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you shall eat or what you shall drink, nor about your body, what you shall put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?” Matthew 6:25-26

Be cheerful as the birds. If you worry and waver in the day of trouble, you may miss God’s plan and opportunity for deliverance. He has great plans for you and He will fulfill them.
