Hold fast to the word of Christ

The word of God has the power to change and transform and is eternally true. The word of God is the truth. That's what the bible says.

What then does the word of God say about us, beloved of the Lord? It says we are made the righteousness of God in Christ! We are drafted into the kingdom of God. We are sons and daughters of the most high God. And whatever Jesus has sacrificed His life for us, we have it!

The divine exchange has taken place at the cross. Jesus has given us His righteousness for our sin. We are reconciled with Abba Father and we can go into His presence anytime, anywhere. We can go to the throne of grace in times of need to cry out Abba Father.

The word says we are made whole, completely healed through Jesus' bodily sacrifice. We are already the healed and not trying to be healed! We are fighting the disease from victory ground and not the other way around. We are to just hold fast to the truth that by Jesus' stripe, we are already the healed! Lying symptoms shall not take root in our bodies.

The bible says Jesus was made poor at the cross that we through His poverty shall be made rich. It is material blessings that Jesus has promised us though the source is spiritual. When we confess in line with His word regarding our financial situation, the financial situation has to turn around for our good. For God made all things good for His people.

Jesus has come as our kinsman redeemer. Whatever it is that we need Jesus to redeem us from, He has already done it at the cross. Jesus has proclaimed with a loud voice at the cross, "It is finished!" We are redeemed from the curse of the law. We are redeemed from broken relationship. We are redeemed from potential disaster.

Whatever we are believing God for, the answer is in the Word and Jesus is the Word. Hold fast to Jesus for He is the author and finisher of our faith. Hallelujah!

Matthew 7:7

Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it
will be opened to you. (Matthew 7:7)

We have not because we ask not. Therefore, ask the Lord for our needs! For
He cares. Cast all our cares upon Him and see the miraculous working power
of God manifestating itself magnificently in our lives.

When we ask the Lord for answer, we have to ask knowing that He has already
given us the answer. We can have the confident expectation that the need
has been answered as well. For bible hope doesn't disappoint! In His time,
we will see the manifestation.

When we ask according to His will, He will always answer exceedingly with
more than enough for our every need. I am NOT talking here about having
someone's spouse or someone's possession. I am referring to our need
according to what Jesus has paid for at the cross.

If healing is what we want, ask the Lord for His healing power to manifest
mightily in our lives. He loves to heal and is healing today. He is the
same yesterday, today and forever. Jesus is the Healer. He is Healing
himself. Have no doubt the Jesus heals. Just believe in His word for
everyone who comes to Him is healed.

If we are trusting God for financial breakthrough, believe He will answer
with more than enough that we will become a blessing and a blessor to those
around us! Ask the Lord for the wisdom to get wealth for He has given us
the power to create wealth.

If we are asking the Lord to mend our family relationship, believe that the
Lord will restore the relationship to a level that exceeds our expectation
in a positive way. Whatever the case may be, be it reconciliation with
one's spouse, or dear immediate family member, God can restore that
relationship. Ask and believe.

Seek the Lord in our every dealing and He will prosper our way. He will
always guide us in the pathway of righteousness. Hallelujah.

Judge God based on the finished work at the cross!

Just before Christ dismissed His spirit at the cross, He cried with a
loud voice: "It is finished!" The redemptive work has been completed.
The divine exchange has taken place. And whosoever believes in Him shall
be saved!

Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law. He has completely
saved us from Adam's fall. With the finished work at the cross, He has
made those who believes in His finished work to be right with God.

When we are right with God, we are the righteousness of God in Christ.
We enjoy every spirit blessing which He has so dearly paid His life for.
We are to be the head and not the tail. We are a blessing to those
around us. We are to inherit the world and to have dominion over it!
Don't get me wrong here. We are kings and priests because of Jesus'
redemptive work at the cross. We are drafted into the Kingdom of God and
are sons and daughters of the Most High God. With our new identity in
Christ, we are to rule over our circumstances!

While some of us may be dealing with some form of dreaded diseases, or
even a "death sentence" has been pronounced by the doctors, we are to
look to Jesus the healer and healing Himself. The bible says whoever
beholds the bronzed serpent on the wooden pole shall be saved and will
not die! Behold Jesus and His finished work at the cross and see Him
taking our pains and diseases at the cross. For by His stripe, we are
already made whole, healed! We are not trying to be healed but already
healed. Just believe His word and see the miraculous manifestation of
His healing power in our lives!

Some of us may be facing a mountain of debt. Know this, Christ was made
poor at the cross that we through His poverty, shall be made rich. The
situation my be bad and even unbearable at times. We just have to
believe God is working behind the scenes to make sure we will end up
with more than enough! Keep believing and confessing we are already rich
and prosperous because of Jesus' finished work at the cross and in His
time, we will see the outward manifestation of material blessings!

Don't judged God based on our circumstances. Judge God based on the
finished work of Christ at the cross. Our circumstances can change but
the love of God for us will never change! Hallelujah!

Enjoy God's love personally

God so loved the world that He sent His only begotten Son to die at the
cross that through His death the world's people shall be saved.

There are some who think God will only love those who behave well or
those who obey His ten commandments. And there are some Christians who
think God will only love those who are "good" Christians. Holy! How
wrong are these people in their thinkings!

God indeed loves the world, but more importantly, He loves each of us
dearly. His love is very personal! The word says He calls me by my name.
How close is that?! He knows us so intimately that He knows the number
of hair on our heads. He loves us more than we love ourselves.

He will go the very extra mile to make sure all things turn out for our
good. Things may not be good but He will make sure it will turn out to
be good for His beloved child. Just trust in His grace and unconditional
love for each of us. His Fatherly love goes beyond how our natural
father loves us. His perfect love casts out all fears.

God wants us to know Him and His Son intimately as how best of pals
would behave. He wants to commune with us intimately. He wants us to
cast all our cares upon the feet of Jesus for He cares dearly for all
our wants and needs. He who feeds the birds and the lilies of the valley
will surely meet our every need. Know His love for us is personal. We
must appropriate His love personally as well.

Enjoy every moment with the Lord for He is good and His mercy endures
forever. Hallelujah!

God holds my future

My future is in God's hand and He says it is good! My job is to believe His word and be at rest.

I am not referring to a lifestyle of "resting" at home but a lifestyle of rest from within even in the midst of the fiercest battle at the office. Right smack in the centre of a situation that's seemed impossible to overcome, we can be restful within and trust God for His deliverance. Hallelujah!

The bible says the path of the righteous shall shine brighter and brighter unto the perfect day. That can mean our future, in the hand of God, can only get better with each passing day. The bible also tells us God only has good thoughts toward His people and a future of hope.

This hope is not the same hope of the world where it implies uncertainty of the outcome in the future. This hope is bible hope where it is confident and joyful expectation of good, or good happenings in one bible translation.

We can hope our future is bright and full of the blessings of the Almighty God! Regardless of what we are going through now, our future in Christ can only be good! That's the promise in the bible and the word of God is truth and it will not return to God void.

If we are experiencing some form of incurable diseases, look to the bronzed serpent that was judged so that whosoever looks at the bronzed serpent will be healed and will not die! For by His stripe, we are already the healed of the Lord.

If we are facing some financial lacks, be assured that we will be delivered out of the financial lack soon and we will have the wisdom to create and protect our wealth. This is the promise of God for Jesus Christ was made poor at the cross that we through His poverty shall be made rich. That's material blessings!

Trust and believe God for He holds our future and our future can only be good for God is in control of it. He has prepared a way for me to follow. Hallelujah!

God keeps His covenant

God so loved the world that He sent His only begotten Son to die for the world that whosoever believes His son shall be saved and have live more abundantly.

Jesus died at the cross for the divine exchange of taking our place of sin so that we can take His place of righteousness at the right hand of Almighty God, our Abba Father.

Also, as a result of the divine exchange at the cross, we are been drafted into the kingdom of God and hence sons and daughters of God. As Christ is, so are we in this world. Expect to live life abundantly for our God will supply all our needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

But why must Jesus be crucified at the cross?

It was because of the covenant God cut with Abraham. In that covenant, Abraham didn't walk across the blood line of the slaughtered animals but it was Jesus and God the Father who walked across the blood line in the opposite direction. As such, because of our sin, Jesus had to come as a human being to take the punishment of God at the cross on our behalf!

It is the grace of God that Jesus is a willing covenantal keeper. For at the garden of Gethsemane, Jesus had a choice to go back to the Heavenly Father but chose to fulfill His Father's will to sacrifice Himself on our behalf.

And because of Jesus' finished work at the cross. We can expect good to happen to us for Jesus had taken all the bad upon Himself at the cross.

He had redeemed us from the curse of the law and also to bless us with every spiritual blessing to enjoy. Today, we can live the abundant life because Jesus had made us the righteousness of God in Him!

Proclaim with confidence all the promises in the bible are yes and amen and expect good things to happen in our lives. Hallelujah!

God can turn what's little in your hands into something great!

There are many stories in the bible where God uses what's little in one's hand to turn it into something great.

In the story of the feeding of five thousand men, God took the five loaves and two fishes to feed the five thousand men, excluding women and children. That five loaves and two fishes actually belonged to a boy. They were probably his lunch.

When Moses and the children of Israel were faced with the Red Sea and the charging armies of the Egypt hot on their heels, Moses used his rod to split open the Red Sea and all the children of Israel were able to cross the Red Sea safely while the Egyptian armies were drowned in the Red Sea.

Elijah was able to command fire to consume the Samaritan army sent to bring him to see the King of Samaria. He has no tool and just a servant with him. However when he used his mouth to speak, he accomplished great things.

In the new testament, the handkerchief of Paul was able to heal and cast out demon. Isn't amazing that even a handkerchief of Paul is able to heal the sick and cast out demons.

God can use what's little in our hand to turn it into something great for His kingdom. Don't despise the "little" giftings and talents that God had places in our hands for they can achieve great things in our lives and for the kingdom of God.

Even when the giftings seem so insignificant as compared to some other people' giftings, God can still use them if we are to trust God with those giftings. Ask God for wisdom and we will be able to accomplish great things through Christ who strengthens me!

Be restful in the Lord for He makes all things beautiful for His people. Trust His leading and we will live a victorious life. Hallelujah!

What God promises He will do it

God is more than able to fulfill His promises in the bible. For through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ at the cross, all good promises are yes and amen.

God only has good thoughts toward me. His thoughts for me are thoughts to prosper me. Thoughts of growing my character. Thoughts of wonderful family relationship and so much more. All His thoughts toward me can only be good for the bible says He has a good future and hope for me.

As the word of God says so, so be it. That is the promise of God for the word of God will accomplish what it is sent out to do and it will never come back to God void. So believe the word when it says God has a good future and hope for me.

Regardless of what we are asking Abba Father for, believe He will do it. If we are dealing with some form of terminal diseases, believe we are going to be well for God wants us to be healthy. If we are facing some challenges in the area of our finances, believe God to be debt free for He loves to prosper His people so that they can be so abundantly blessed to be a blessing.

In the bible, when Jesus told His disciples that they were going to the other side of the sea, He meant it! But in the middle of the journey, there was a perfect storm and the disciples were afraid for the waters were hitting them. They shouted to the Lord for help and immediately Jesus awoke from His well deserved sleep to calm the storm. And He subsequently calmed the storm in the disciples' hearts.

When Jesus promised a leader of the synagogue named Jairus that He would heal his daughter, He will see to it that his daughter shall be well. However in the journey to Jairus' home, Jesus was stopped by a woman with the issue of blood for He perceived healing power had gone out of Him to heal. Even when news of Jairus' daughter was dead, Jesus just assured Jairus his daughter will be alright and his daughter was later raised from the dead!

Believe God when He says He has only good thoughts toward us. Hold on to His word and see the miraculous manifestation of the His promises in our lives. Hallelujah!

God will take care of the big and small things in your lives

Be anxious for nothing but in everything with prayer and supplication
let your request be made known to God and the peace of God which
surpasses all understandings will guard your heart and mind through
Christ Jesus. For God will supply all my needs according to His riches
in glory in Christ Jesus!

The word of God says He will provide for all my needs. He is my
provider. He is providence Himself. Be it small or big, He loves to
cater to all the needs.

When the going in our lives seems too tough for us to handle or it just
seems too overwhelming and we feel we are helpless to do something about
it, God wants to assure us He is working behind the scene to make sure
we WILL come out of that challenging situation victoriously. For He will
make all things beautiful in His time and He will make all things to
turn out for our good. Things may not be good at the moment but it will
turn our to be good in His time.

We need to just hold on to God's promises in the bible. For they are yes
and amen in Christ Jesus. For at the cross, some two thousand years ago,
Jesus died on our behalf so that we can take His position of
righteousness with Abba Father. He was smitten, burnt, striped on our
behalf so that we are made whole through His bodily sacrifice. His
precious blood has cleansed us of all our sins and we are drafted into
the kingdom of God to be sons and daughters of God.

Jesus even borne our pains and sorrows and stresses on our behalf so
that we can enjoy the shalom He had bequeathed to us. This is not
worldly peace but the peace of God. The peace that surpasses all
understandings. Peace that assures us we are right with God. Peace that
in the midst of a perfect storm we can be calm within and the assurance
of His presence in our lives.

Regardless of the magnitude of the issues at hand, God loves to see that
those concerns are met. Be it trusting God to completely cleared us of
our debts or to heal us of terminal diseases or to believe in God for a
favourable position in a company or just simply believing God for a good
car park lot, God will made sure they are accomplished. Not by my might
nor strength but by His grace.

Believe God for He is good all the time and His goodness and mercy
endure forever. Hallelujah!

Speak good into your life

Death and life are in the power of the tongue and those who love it will eat its fruit.

Obviously, what we say, be it good or bad, will affect our lives. If we want to see good in our lives, proclaim good and speak good things into our lives. Likewise bad things can happen into our lives because we had been speaking bad.

This is the power that God has given us. For God spoke and it was so. And He calls forth those things that are not into existence. God speaks what He wants to see and not the other way around.

Our speech will affect our lives and our future and ultimately our destiny. When we speak in line with God's word, we will experience God's abundance blessings in our lives. Not that we can earn God's blessings but rather we "activate" the miracles of God when speak about His goodness in our lives and believe by faith.

So, if we are not experiencing good in our lives, be mindful of what we are speaking into our lives and begin to proclaim God's grace into our lives and see wonderful manifestation of His miracles in our lives! We can affect our future by our speech.

Conversely, when we speak bad, we will see bad in our lives for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. Not all bad things happen because we have been speaking bad. Some of the "bad" happenings are caused by what we had spoken badly about.

For a start, let's proclaim we are healthy by the bodily sacrifice of Jesus Christ. We are already the healed because of the stripe that Jesus had borne. No disease can come near us nor can any terminal illness take root in our bodies.

We can start to proclaim God's abundance supply in our lives for Jesus was made poor at the cross that we through His poverty shall be made we. The bible also says God will supply all our needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Let's speak in line with what God's word says.

Let's be mindful of our speech for what comes out of our mouth will affect our lives.

Be Still

There is a part of a song there goes like this:

When the oceans rise and thunder roars
I will soar with You above the storms
Father You are King over the floods
I will be still and know You are God

In spite of the dire situations that we may find ourselves in, be still
at heart and know Abba Father is working behind the scene to turn things
in our favour for our good. Not all things are pleasant and not all
goings are cosy all the time but we can rest in the grace of God for He
is more than able and willing to see us through those difficult times.

There may be times when the going seem so tough for us to bear that we
are brought to the point of giving up. Do not look within ourselves to
overcome the odds but look to the everlasting love of God to see us
through. His timing may seem slow at times but He will always deliver
perfectly on time, all the time!

In life, the oceans may rise and the thunder may roar. There may be fear
in our hearts as well. However, we are to be still in our hearts for God
is good all the time and He will see to it that we always come out of
the shadow of the valley of death victoriously. He unwavering love is
best demonstrated at the cross where His only begotten Son, Jesus
Christ, died on our behalf to reconcile us to God! Hallelujah! We are
drafted into the kingdom of God by that perfect work at the cross.

For some, the doctor's report may seem like a death sentence but the
doctor does not have the final word. Jesus always has the final say in
our lives for He is the Author and Finisher of our faith. He is the
beginning and the last. Look to Jesus and be healed of the dreaded
disease. Look to Jesus and be made whole. It is as simple as that. We
only need to put our trust in His abundance grace towards us.

In the old testament, when the children of Israel were bitten by
poisonous snakes in the wilderness, the Lord instructed them to look at
the bronzed serpent on the wooden pole. And whoever looked at the
bronzed serpent were healed while those who kept looking at how bad
their wounds were died. We are to look at the finished work of Jesus at
the cross. For whatever we need has been accomplished at the cross.
Jesus will satisfy our need and want according to the riches in glory in
Christ Jesus.

Don't focus on the storms in our lives but look to Jesus and be at rest
and see ourselves soaring over all our problems. Hallelujah.

Release the power of God in you

For God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power and of love and of a sound mind. And we are to stir up the gift of God which is in us.

What exactly is The gift of God which is in us? It is the gifts of of the Holy Spirit and the gift of speaking in tongues is the only gift of the Spirit that we can "utilize" at will and to ignite the other eight gifts of the Spirit.

When we speak in tongues, there comes an inner strength and fortitude to face what's in the world. Peace and joy flows freely when we speak in tongues for a season. We will feel the power of God to activate the other gifts of the Spirit as the Spirit wills.

As we speak in tongues, we become more sensitize to the prompting of God. We tend to hear Him more accurately when we are speaking in tongues for a season. This is not to imply those who don't speak in tongues cannot hear God accurately. We hear God speaking with us all the time when we are His children.

When the power of God is released through the speaking in tongues, we can activate the other gifts of the Spirit. We will be able to lay hand on the sick and they will recover. God will move some of us with the gift of word of wisdom to shed some light regarding certain issues.

Also some will be able to share with others the word of knowledge regarding God's word. Others will be able to prophesies events in the future. Some will be able to discern in their spirit and others will have the gift of interpreting tongues. To another the working of miracles and to another the spirit of faith.

No one gift is more powerful than the other. The situation dictates which is the most appropriate gift to activate. If we are sharing the word of God with a sick person, the appropriate gift of the Spirit may be the healing of the Spirit. To a person who is unsure of his or her future the gift of prophecy may be appropriate.

Beloved of the Lord, release the power of the Lord by stirring up the gift of speaking in tongues and see God's wondrous miracles manifesting in our lives. Hallelujah!

God always shine

Rain or shine, the sun is always there. Just because it is raining cats and dogs and the sky is darker than ever before doesn't imply the sun is not there and still shining.

God is forever faithful and is always on time, though He may seem to be late at times. His timing to deliver us out of our challenging situations is always perfect. He will never subject His righteous people to be put to shame.

Nothing is impossible to God. There is nothing too big or small that God will not take care of as long we are concerned with those things. It may be a small thing such as looking for a good parking lot to the cancellation of a huge financial debt, God will see to it. It may be a just deciding where to have the next meal to the restoration of marital relationship, God will make sure those are accomplished as well.

Regardless of the severity of the situation, God is more than able to deliver us out of it. Moreover, He is more than willing to take care of our cares than we may be aware of. Believe God will deliver according to His abundant grace.

Even when there seems to be no light at the end of the tunnel, be conscious that God is working behind the scene to make sure all things turn out well for us. Trust in His goodness and mercy and praise Him for He is good. He will always make things good for us even though the current going seems too tough to carry on.

God never gives up! He always calls forth what He wants to see. Beloved of the Lord, we should call forth our victory in the overwhelming circumstance and believe that we are fighting from victory ground and not fighting for victory. We should speak well into our situations and see the perfect manifestation of God's wonderful miracles.

As a child, it is our privileges to believe in God. He had sent His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, to die for us at the cross for our sin debt to God. What more will He not with Jesus Christ freely gives us all things to enjoy! Keep believing and trusting in His grace for us. Hallelujah!

God always has time for me

God always has time for me. He always hear my prayer and it is His delight to answer my prayers!

When I go to the throne of grace, I always talk to God one on one. I have never needed to come to a spiritual mood in order to commune with Abba Father. And I will find no one else except me and God when I commune with Him!

God created time. He is outside time and that's why the finished work at the cross by Jesus Christ avails for all generations from Adam to the last man that will ever live. The work at the cross is completely completed.

Sinners can be made righteous by accepting the gift of salvation. Salvation is a gift and not something we can work for. Once we accept the gift of salvation, we are righteous forever. We have right standing with God forever. Hallelujah!

We, the beloveds of the Lord can come to the throne of grace anytime. We can present our requests to God under any circumstance or situation. We can talk with God for eternity for He always has time for us.

We don't have to ask shooting prayer for fear of been fried by the judgement of God for all punishments had been borne by Jesus Christ at the cross. Today we can talk to God knowing all our sins are forgiven. We can talk with God just like a close friend would.

As beloved of the Lord, I can go to God anytime anywhere and He will always has time for me to listen and talk with me. Hallelujah!

God only has good thoughts for me

God only has good thoughts for me. His greatest love for me was exhibited at the cross where He sent His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, to die for me!

When He gave up Jesus for me, He would freely give me all things to enjoy! All things mean all things.

He wants to have have a wonderful relationship with me. That's why I am drafted into His kingdom to be a son of God through the divine exchange at the cross some two thousand years ago. He is my Abba Father. He wants to commune with me all the time. He wants me to know He is always caring for me, even if I were to walk through the shadow of the valley of death.

He wants me to have a healthy relationship with my wife and son. For my wife is the appointed one for me and my son is a blessing from Him. He wants me to enjoy family bliss. He wants my entire household to live for Lord Jesus. For He is the true head of my household. He is the captain of my life.

He wants me to prosper in my finances. He loves to position me as a head and not a tail. He wants me to enjoy my profession. In trying business situation, he is always there to provide an answer. There is simply nothing too big for my God.

He loves to see me healthy and joyful. I wouldn't be able to go around carrying out my responsibilities when I am flat on my back. Jesus has borne all my diseases and pain so that I don't have to bear them on my body.

Most of all, God wants my soul to prosper! He wants to expand my inside before He pours forth the outward manifestation of health and wealth. He is constantly chastening me for He loves me. He is building my character from glory to glory. Hallellujah!

Be aware of God's magnificent love. His unending love never fails. Praise the Lord for He is good all the time.

See Jesus in everything

In all things, Jesus should have the pre-eminence. For He is Alpha and
Omega, the author and finisher of our faith.

Whatever situation we are going through, always see Jesus in that
situation. He can make all things good even those things may seem to be
terrible at the moment and there seems to no light at the end of the
tunnel.

In the midst of a perfect storm, be conscious of Jesus' presence in that
perfect storm. Be conscious of our righteousness in Christ Jesus. There is
nothing too big that God cannot manage. Jesus is the Almighty God. Nothing
is impossible to Him and I can do all thiings through Christ who
strengthens me.

When the image of Jeus in us is so big, the treat of a challenging
situation will be small when compared to the full confidence in Christ.
Just know Jesus is working behind the scene to make sure we come out of
every bad situation victorious.

When we bring Jesus into the situation, the situation will have to bow to
Jesus and turn for the better. For Jesus is above all names and things.

Joshua and Caleb saw the goodness of their God and His wonderful promise to
bring them in into the promised land for they have a different spirit. They
see their God as a good God who will keep His promise to His people. The
other ten spies saw the enemy as larger than what their God can do for
them. Their unbelief caused the children of Israel to wonder in the
wilderness for forty years!

When the children of Israel was fighting the Philistines at the valley of
Elah, the army of Israel was afraid of the giants of the Philistines. But,
David saw the goodness and mercy of His God. He was furious at the remarks
made by the Philistines for he was conscious of his right standing with God
and he was able to defect the giant Goliath with just one smooth stone.

When we are conscious of Jesus' wonderful work at the cross, bad situation
becomes good. When we believe right, there is heart transformation and we
will eventually live right. See Jesus in our every endeavour and see
victory been accomplished by Christ Jesus. Hallelujah!

Trust God's Grace

It is better to trust in the LORD Than to put confidence in man.

When we trust in God's unmerited, unearned and undeserved favour, we are
under the secret place of the most high. All blessings are ours to
proclaim. We are far from evil and no plague shall come near our house.

In the old testament, Abraham lived under the grace of the almighty God.
God made him very rich and he lived a long good life! Even when he had made
mistakes, God didn't punish him but instead turn those mistakes into
something good for Abraham, making him very rich in the process.

When Ishmael was born to Hagar, God didn't punish Abraham for his lack of
faith but blessed the generations of Ishmael, even though that is not the
best plan God had for Abraham. Years later, Sarah gave birth to Isaac, the
child of the promise. For out of Isaac lineage comes Jesus Christ, our Lord
and Saviour.

When the great grandson of Abraham, Joseph was sent to Egypt, he didn't
resent his brothers for doing evil to him but instead praised and thanked
God for preparing him for the great famine. Joseph trusted in God's grace
and he prospered in everything he did. Even the pharoah made him the second
man in command right after him.

Years later God's grace provided food and clothing for the children of
Israel in the wilderness. Even though they murmured before Mount Sinai,
they were provided for in everything. They had the pillar of cloud in the
day to keep them cool and they had the pillar of fire in the evening to
keep them warm. God provided all their needs and would have continue to do
so for He is a gracious God had they not requested for God's law.

We, the beloved of the Lord, should come under the grace of God and not put
ourselves under His law. For Christ had fulfilled the law at the cross
thousand years ago. With that complete act, we are called the sons of God.
We have being reconciled with God through the divine exchange, accomplished
by Jesus Christ, at the cross.

We should live life knowing God will provide for our every need. He has
blessed us with every spiritual blessing. The grace of the Lord will make
us rich and healthy. The grace of the Lord will cause us to live long. The
grace of the Lord will make us the head and not the tail.

Trust in Gos's grace in our lives. He will make all things beautiful in His
time for us. Live life worry-free and just enjoy God's abundant grace in
our lives. Hallelujah!

What Are We Building Our House On?

The bible says that those who build their house on Christ the solid Rock
will be stable in times of trial and prosecution.

What does it mean to build our house on Christ? It means to rely on Jesus
Christ our Saviour and Redeemer for our every want and need. It means to
trust Him in our every endeavour. It means to see Him in His amazing grace
for us via the finished work at the cross. It means to be righteous
conscious and not law conscious.

For Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law. The devine exchange
has taken place at the cross. Jesus had exchanged His position of righteous
for my position of sin. With that one finished work at the cross, I have
been drafted into the kingdom of God. I now have Sonship with God.

Cursed is He who hangs on the tree. Christ has redeemed us from all curses.
All blessings are yes and amen in Christ. We just have to proclaim
blessings in our lives.

When we look to Jesus as the answer to our every need, we are building our
houses on solid Rock. When the foundation is Christ Jesus, no storm or even
earthquake can move our houses. When we trust in Jesus to provide for our
every need, we shall not lack. When we place our family in Jesus' hand, the
relationship shall be blessed. When we put our career in His hand, our
career shall be blessed.

When we put our health in His hand, we shall be healthy and strong and our
youthfullness shall be renewed like the eagle's. When we put our finances
in His hand, we shall be blessed with more than enough to be a blessing.
Whatever is put in Jesus' hand shall be blessed.

When Jesus touches our minds, we shall have no fear. We shall be far from
oppression. For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, of
love and of a sound mind. Just build and keep building our house on Christ
the solid Rock. Hallelujah!

Enjoy God's love over and over again

Abba Father loves me more than I love myself. This is so evidenced by
the finished work at the cross by Christ Jesus.

This Agape love is unconditional. For even when we were still sinners,
Christ died for us. It is not our good behaviour that merits His love
for us. It is not our good work that earns His favour on us. It is
definitely not good thought that put us in the kingdom of God.

What qualifies me for this unearned and unmerited favour IS His love for
me! For by His grace, I have been saved and made whole through His only
begotten Son, Jesus Christ. Hallelujah! When I believe this eternal
truth, I begin to exhibit good behaviours. I do good for I know I am the
righteousness of God in Christ. And I have good thoughts both toward God
and men for He first has good thoughts toward me. What a wonderful love
relationship with Abba Father. Such tender loving care from the One who
never fails.

Just a few days ago, I had the opportunity to "play" with my son,
Johanan, on a escalator at a shopping mall. He likes to just step on the
escalator and be "carried" by it up and down. Of course I was there
beside him to hold him and to carry him off at the tail end of the
escalator. He was trilled just been able to stand on the escalator. I
was very joyful and grateful to be able to share this wonderful bond and
joy between father and son. It brought me great joy to just see my son
being so happy to be able to "play" on the escalator.

While Johanan was happy he was able to enjoy the escalator ride, I was
happy to be just with him all this while. Whenever he looked at me and
smile at me, my heart simply melted. How wonderful this is to be able to
enjoy your son. Johanan may not be aware how much joy he brings to me
when he simply just looks and smiles at me knowing I am by his side.

O! How wonderful is Abba Father to me. Being a natural father, I am
limited in my love for my son. But Daddy God has unlimited love for me.
He rejoices whenever I am rejoicing. He is happy to see me being happy
and joyous. Whenever I am reminded of Abba's love in my life, I am sure
it brings joy to Abba. Whenever I give thanks to and praise Him for His
grace, I believe it must have bring such wonderful feeling to God as
well. The more I trust in His grace for me, the more He is happy to
simply supply all my needs and much more!

Just enjoy God's great love over again. Don't look at the circumstances
around us. Focus of His love and grace for us. Hallelujah!

God Supplies More Than Our Needs

My God shall supply all my needs according to the riches in glory in
Christ Jesus. Also, He will exceedingly and abundantly supply with more
than enough all our needs.

The bible says that Simon was toiling all night the night before Jesus
used his boat to preach and teach the multitude with no success. When
Jesus asked Simon to cast out his nets into the sea, there was doubt in
Simon's mind. Yet at His spoken word, Simon cast out ONE net. There was
so much fishes that Simon had to call for help from his fishing partners
to reel in those fishes!

Jesus promised, indirectly, that there would be abundant supply of
fishes when Simon was to cast down his fishing nets. He word is as good
as gold. Yet, there was doubt in Simon's mind for he was a fisherman
while he thought Jesus was just a carpenter. What would Jesus know about
fishing? Praise the Lord that even with much doubt in our minds, we can
still trust God's word and cast out ONE net and receive our blessing.
Behold, we have to call for help to receive the super-abounding supplies
later!

The bible says it is God's delight to hear and answer all our prayers.
He wants to meet all our needs with much more. His supplies are more
than our needs. It is His joy to supply and give. Our job is to take
from Him. For Grace supplies, Love gives and Faith takes. The more we
take from Him, the more supply there is, for God's supply is limitless!
When we are good receiver of God's supplies, we can be good givers to
those around us who are in need.

Beloved, know that at the cross, Jesus had paid for the price to receive
health and wealth from Abba Father. By His stripe, we are already the
healed. We are not trying to be healed but already HEALED. Even when the
lying symptoms seem to linger on, only believe Jesus had already made us
whole. In due time, we shall see the manifestation of wholeness in our
bodies.

The bible says we shall have all sufficiency in Christ Jesus. Should our
barns be empty, know that God has given us the power to create wealth.
Also, the blessing of the Lord makes one rich and He adds no sorrow with
it. We don't have to work to become rich. We work to exhibit our gifts
and talents that God first put it in our hands. See He unlimited supply
and in due time, financial manifestation will take place in our lives.

Hallelujah! Rejoice in the over-supply of God. Everyday reach out for
His manna. His word is truth and so is His promises in the bible.
Rejoice in the Lord. Hallelujah!

See Things Through The Eyes Of Jesus

Jesus is the author and finisher of our faith. He is the Alpha and Omega.
He is Aleph and Tav. He is the First and Last. He will always has the last
word in your live.

Jesus always sees a finished work. The bible says in the beginning, God
said, 'Light be' and there was light. God said and it was so. That was how
He created the Heavens and the Earth. He saw the finished work of what He
wanted and spoke forth.

Also, the bible also says that the work has been completed from the
beginning of the world. That could mean the sacrificial work at the cross
had already been completed from the beginning of time for God lives outside
time. Whatever that needs completion has been accomplished by Jesus. In Him
everything exists.

Jesus is always cool and steady. He is never hurried. He may seem to be
late at times but His timing is always perfect. He is above all things and
names. All knees will bow to the name of Jesus.

Should we face a challenging situation that seems to have no resolution at
hand, look through the eyes of Jesus. He already has the solution for that
seemingly overwhelming trial. He knows all things will turn out for our
good, if only we would simply believe this truth.

In the story of Lazarus; he was dead for four days and his sisters were
very sorrowful for his death. They would have lost all hope of him coming
back to live. When Jesus came into the scene, Martha cried to the Lord that
He should have been there earlier and her brother would live. Jesus knew He
would raise Lazarus from the dead for He saw the goodness of His Father and
His resurrection power.

Jesus assured Martha that Lazarus will rise again. Yet Martha said Lazarus
would rise in the last day. Jesus said to Martha that He is the
Resurrection and the Live. He then raised Lazarus from the tomb he was in.

Regardless of the trials and prosecutions what we may be going through,
know that Jesus aleady has the answer to bring us out victoriously. Be
restful within for the battle belongs to the Lord. Hallelujah!

His Grace Is Sufficient For Us

When I am weak, He is strong for me. His grace is always sufficient for
me for the day!

When Jesus Christ died at the cross some two thousand years ago, He
completed the finished work that needed to be completed. He thoroughly
cleansed us of all our sins and brought us back to God so that we are
now drafted into the kingdom of God. We are sons and daughters of Abba
Father. We are joined heir with Christ Jesus.

The bible says Jesus is our provider, Jehovah Jireh. His supplies never
stop. Whatever we need in our lives, He is always supplying. His grace
is always sufficient for us. His timing is always perfect, though He may
seem to be late at times. Trust in His grace towards us for it is this
grace that reconciled us to God. God's Righteousness At Christ's
Expense. That's the perfect love expressed by Abba Father when Christ
died at the cross.

If we are battling with some form of dreaded diseases, rest assured that
Jesus, Jehovah Rapha, will heal us. He is the healer and He is healing
Himself. For by His stripe, we are already the healed. We are not trying
to be healed but already the healed! When the children of Israel was
wondering in the wilderness and some of them were bitten by venomous
snakes, whoever looked unto the bronze serpent on the wooden cross lived!

The bible says whoever looked at the bronze serpent lived. It was not
their effort to try and purge the poison out of their bodies. It was
focusing on the serpent that was judged at the cross that healed them.
The devil was judged at the cross when Christ cried, 'It is finished!'.
With it, healing is ours to proclaim as Jehovah Rapha now lives in us.

If we are dealing with some debts that seem overwhelming and larger than
life, be at rest for Jesus is Jehovah Jireh. He is our provider. The
bible says Jesus was made poor at the cross that we through His poverty
shall be made rich. In this passage we are already made rich through the
sacrifice at the cross. It is a matter of time we see material riches in
our lives. Praise the Lord for His is good. Our job is to believe His
word for the word has the power to transform our lives and manifest
itself in this world!

Take for example the story of Ruth. She was a widow and a Moabite. In
the natural, she has nothing. Yet she trusted in the favour of the Lord
and glean in Boaz's field. She found favour in the eyes of Boaz and
subsequently married Boaz, the kinsmen redeemer in this story. From
someone who has nothing in her possession to becoming one of the richest
lady in the land of Israel.

Beloveds of the Lord, trust in God's grace for His grace is sufficient
for us. We can always rely on His mercy and goodness in our lives.
Hallelujah!

Peace, Be Still

In the midst of a perfect storm, be restful within for the Lord is with
you. He will never leave nor forsake you.

Adam and Eve enjoyed God's love and His creation before the fall. In the
cool of the evening, God will commune with them. There was no sense of
distance between them and definitely no sense of guilt. There was closeness
with God for God would speak to them.

After Adam and Eve had sinned against God by eating the fruit of the tree
of knowledge of good and evil, they sew fig leave to cover their nakedness.
When God came in the evening to commune with them, they were afraid and hid
themselves from God. They were probably terrified of God and His possible
punishment.

There was no longer the sense of closeness. They were conscious of their
sin more than anything else. Yet God, in His perfection and love, just
drove them out of the garden of Eden for if they were to eat of the fruit
of the tree of life, they would live forever with the guilty conscience.
God didn't want them to live a life of evil conscience!

And without the law, there was no punishment. In old bible times, men lived
to hundred of years. Even after the flood, men lived very long.

Be conscious of Jesus' finished work at the cross. Be full of His love for
us. Know His grace. For He has only good thoughts for us. In the midst of
our most difficult times, be still. Be anxious for nothing but in
everything in prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your request
be made known to God. And the peace of God which surpasses all
understanding will guard your heart and mind.

Be at rest for the battle belongs to the Lord! Guard our hearts against all
guarding and God will guard everything ourside. He fights our every battle.
He is the conqueror and we are more than a conqueror in Christ. Hallelujah!

The Have And The Have Not

For whoever has, to him more will be given, and he will have abundance; but
whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him.

Those who have big revelation of Jesus, more revelation will be poured
forth on them. Those who have little revelation of Jesus, even that little
revelation will be taken away by the devil. The attitude of how we see
Jesus will determine how we receive from Him.

When we see Jesus as having finished the perfect work at the cross, we will
already receive what He had paid to give it to us. The bible says Jesus was
wounded for our transgression and brusied for our iniquities; the
chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed.

When we believe Jesus has already healed our bodies, the healing will
manifest in the natural. When we think we have to do something about the
pain of a disease and doubt the healing power of our Lord Jesus Christ, we
frustrate the grace of God and Christ is of no effect in the healing.

When we believe Jesus was made poor at the cross that we through His
poverty shall be made rich, we ARE rich! It is a matter of time when we
will see the outward manifestation of financial prosperity when we don't
doubt Jesus.

The more we believe in Jesus, the more of Jesus we will see, especially in
the word. We will have fresh and big revelation of who Lord Jesus is in our
lives. Keep believing and trusting in His goodness and mercy. Rely on His
grace completely and see Salvation in all aspects of our lives. Hallelujah!

Sing O Barren

Sing O barren! Sing! Those who don't see fruits in their lives, sing. For
the manifestation of miracles is near.

Isn't it cruel to ask the barren women to sing and rejoice in the Lord. In
the natural, those barren women will be looking and focusing on their lack
of fruits and also envying those who have children. How to sing and
rejoice?!

The bible says we should sing and rejoice for victory is near. The miracle
that we are believing God for is just around the corner!

When Sarah was about ninety years old, she was barren and longed to have a
son by Abraham. Yet, by her own effort, she was not able to produce. When
the Lord proclaimed she shall have a son by Abraham, she was laughing
softly. When she believed the Lord and was just enjoying His love for her,
Isaac came approximately one year later.

The bible says when Joshua and his army circled around the walls of Jericho
for six days, they were to keep their mouths shut. On the seventh day and
on the seven times they had circled around Jericho, the seven priests made
a long blast with the ram's horns and all the men just walked infront of
him and they conquered Jericho.

The sound of the ram's horn is the cry of victory in the Lord. It is the
rejoicing in the Lord. When the ram's horn is sounded, miracle happens and
victory is at hand.

When we sing praises to the Lord and worship Him, something wonderful
happens within our hearts. Our hearts are calmed and rested in the Lord!
Shalom! When that happens, we are sensitised to the Holy Spirit and shall
move with the direction that is given by the Holy Spirit. The Lord then
shall cause us to be at the right place at the right time and He shall give
words to our speech.

Rejoice daily in the Lord. Worship Him even when the situation seems to be
dire. Praise Him even when the challenges are overwhelming. For the battle
belongs to the Lord. Our joy is to guard our hearts and the Lord will guard
everything else!

Victory is near. Don't live life worrying about tomorrow and regretting
about yesterday. His grace is sufficient for the day. Look unto Jesus and
deliverance will come! Hallelujah!

My Inheritance In Christ Jesus

In the parable of the vineyard, the bible says those tenants said to one
another, 'This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will
be ours.'
The heir mentioned here is referring to Jesus.

Jesus was sent to be crucified by His people and gentiles. We basically
"kill" Jesus by sending Him to the cross. Jesus knew He would be crucified
to complete the redemption work at the cross. No one can kill Jesus for He
has not commited any sin and in Him there is no sin.

With the redemptive work completed some two thousand years ago, we are
reconciled with God. It is by God's grace that we can be saved through the
sacrificial act of Jesus at the cross. The precious blood of Jesus washes
our sins away and we are forgiven people forever for we have accepted Jesus
as our Saviour and Lord.

His broken body was given up to make His people whole, healed, well, free
from pain, free from stress and anxiety. With His stripe, we are the healed
of the Lord! We can proclaim wellness and wholeness in our bodies for
Christ has paid the price for them.

Knowing inwardly what Christ has done at the cross, we can rejoice and
celebrate! For we are drafted into the kingdom of God. We are sons and
daughters of God. We are joint heir with Christ Jesus! What Jesus has, we
have, here and now!

What then does the inheritance entail? This is the promise of God that we
shall rule the universe. We are the heir of the world through the promise
God made to Abraham. We have the blessings of Abraham for we are his
descendants.

How then can the heir of the world be poor? The blessings of Abraham make
him very rich in cattle and gold. That's financial prosperity. We know, by
the grace of God, that Christ was made poor at the cross that we through
His poverty shall be made rich. Also, my God shall supply all my needs
according to the riches in glory in Christ Jesus!

How then can the heir of the world be sick? The bible says with long life
will Jesus satisfy me. What's the use of having long life if we are sick.
The Lord promises He will renew our youth like the eagles. It is a literal
renewal! The Lord will keep us from danger and harm. He will teach and
guide us as to how to have a healthy body!

Listen to the prompting of the Holy Spirit. He will teach us in all things.
All things include the power to generate wealth. All things include how to
live healthily. Now, that's my inheritance in Christ, here and now!
Hallelujah!

God's Perfect Love

God loves us even when we were still sinners. What more will He not love us
now that we are sons and daughters of Almighty God!

His greatest love was exhibited some two thousand years ago when Jesus was
crucified at the cross to take our place of sin so that we can take His
place of righteousness beside God. With that completely completed work at
the cross, all our sins are punished and taken away, once and for all!

Now we can come to God freely, anywhere, anytime. Every moment we are
conscious of Jesus' presence, we praise and worship Him. Even when we don't
feel anything, give thanks to the Lord for He is good. Even when situations
seem dire, rejoice in the Lord for the battle belongs to the Lord!

Why is it so we can come to God boldly? For the bible says all our sins and
transgressions He has forgiven and He shall remember them no more! That's
why we can come to God righteously. We have been reconciled to God by the
precious blood of Jesus that was shed at the cross. We can come to the
throne of grace in times of need to cry out Abba Fathe!

When we look to Jesus as our answer, He always puts us on victory ground.
He always delivers us out of our troubles, even though we are the ones who
bring about the bad consequences.

Enjoy God's love in our lives. His love for us is unconditional and
unending! When we know we are so loved by God, we can go forth in life to
love others, even when there are times we feel some of these people are not
deserving of our love.

Love is a decision, not an emotion. We can love others for we decide to
show them love, not because we feel they are deserving of our love. Give
thanks to God daily, worship He daily, for He is good and He only has good
thoughts toward me. Hallelujah!

Enjoy God's Love

For God so loved the world He sent His only regotten Son to die for the
world that whosoever believes in Him will not perish but have life more
abundantly.

God so loved the world, God so loved me as well as I am in the world. Every
day in which I am alive, I can look to God and enjoy His love for me. His
love for me is unconditional. His love for me is forever. His greatest love
for me is exhibited at the cross. Through that one sacrificial act by
Jesus, a divine exchange had taken place: my position of sin for His
position of righteousness.

I am the righteousness of God in Christ. I have right standing with God.
God and me are so one for He lives in me. Enjoy God's love and His grace
and see abundant supplies in every aspect of my life. He delights in
providing my every need and want with more than enough to be a blessing to
those around me!

He is joyful when I look to Him alone for providance. When I go to God in
prayer, He hears my prayer and He is pleased and will answer my every
prayer. With every new day, I can worship God for He is good to me! I can
sing praises to Him for His mercy endures forever. My God is no longer
angry with me for my sins for at the cross all my sins were punished on the
body of Christ.

Rejoice and be joyful knowing God is for me. He only has good thoughts for
me. Be at rest within for I have been reconciled with God through the
complete work of Jesus Christ at the cross. Hallelujah!

Get into the word

The devil comes to steal, kill and destroy.

The devil will come to steal first, follows by to kill and finally to
destroy. What is the thing that the devil comes to steal? He comes to steal
the word of God from your heart!

Why then is the devil so adamant in stealing the word of God from our
lives? For if he is able to steal the word, he will be able to make inroads
into the heart! For the word of God has the power to transform our lives
from strength to strength and glory to glory. The word is the power of God
to make of no effect what the devil is trying to do in our lives.

When Jesus was tempted by the devil three times in the wilderness, He
answered each temptation by saying first "It is written". That implies how
we should answer the devil's accusations is to answer each accusation with
the word of God. For in the word lies the mighty power of God to make
whole, to sozoe, to transform the heart from within.

If the devil comes to accuse us we are not worthy to be called Christians,
answer him that the word says we are made the rigtheousness of God through
the precious blood of Jesus at the cross. We have no part to play in the
redemptive work to be right with God. We can only acknowledge the finished
work at the cross by Jesus and proclaim He is Lord over our lives!

If the devil comes to plant lying symptoms on our bodies, declare that we
are already made whole and well through the broken body of Jesus Christ. By
His stripe, we are healed! The price for our healing has been paid by Jesus
Christ at the cross.

If the devil comes to point out the financial lack in our lives, proclaim
that we are rich, financially prosperous for by the grace of God, Jesus was
made poor at the cross that we through His poverty shall be made rich! It
may be a fact that there isn't much left in some of our bank accounts. The
truth is that we are rich! We are blessed! We are prospered! When we
believe the truth and aggressively proclaim the truth, in due time, we will
see the outward manifestation in our lives!

The word of God is sharper than two edged sword. It is first spoken by God
and only when we speak God's word shall the word becomes a two edged sword.
Speak the word. Get into the word. When the word takes root in our hearts,
there is nothing in the whole that can yank it out of our lives!

Hold on to the word. When we find ourselves not being able to hold on to
the word, the word will hold on to us and manifest! That's the power of God
in the word. Believe the truth and the truth will set you free. Hallelujah!

Do not fear, only believe

Do not fear, only believe.

There are many times in the bible where Jesus told the people not to be
fearful or afraid. He always encouraged them to believe in Him, the One who
never fails. The One who has perfect faith in the Almighty God!

When the disciples were faced with a perfect storm, their hearts were
terribly shaken and they pleaded with Jesus as though He didn't care. Jesus
was awaken from the cry of His disciples and He awoke to calm the perfect
storm which turned to perfect calm. The turned to His disciples to calm
their hearts from being afraid.

When Jairus was informed of his daughter been dead, I think his heart would
have been frozen and he probably would have lost all hope for his daughter
to be alive again. However, Jesus just told him not to fear but only
believe for He has the power to raise the dead. Jesus went on with Jairus
to his home and there He raised Jairus' daughter from the dead!

At the mount of transfiguration, Peter, James and John were afraid for God
had just spoken to them: "This is my beloved Son, hear Him." Jesus simply
comforted them by saying, "Do not be afraid" Oh! What gracious word that
came out of Jesus' mouth!

Jesus is always speaking gracious word to us. The Holy Spirit is always
guiding us with grace. He is never agitated. He is full of patience. He is
full of grace and peace. He always guide us in the path of righteousness
and peace.

If we are facing some insurmountable debts, do not be afraid and believe on
the One who had given up everything so that we through His poverty at the
cross shall be made rich. We shall lack no material thing in life.

If we dealing with some dreaded diseases, do not fear and only believe on
the One who had declared we are already healed for He was pierced, striped
and burnt on our behalf.

Beloved of the Lord, trust the Lord for He is good. His mercy endures
forever. His thoughts toward us are good and His plans for us are
victorious in Him. Believe in His word and see the working miracles of God
manifested in our lives. Hallelujah!

Foolishness and slow of heart to believe

When two disciples were walking to Emmaus, Jesus, after His resurrection,
appeared to them and their eyes were restrained from seeing Jesus. They
were feeling sad for they had thought that Jesus would redeem Israel but He
was nowhere to be found.

Jesus said they were foolish and slow of heart to believe and He then went
on to expound from the Torah to the Prophets things concerning himself and
the hearts of the disciples were warmed. They later partook of the Holy
Communion and that was when they realised who Jesus was. By then Jesus has
disappeared from their sight.

The disciples were so energised by Jesus' teaching that they went back to
where they came from.

Jesus has said to the disciples that they were foolish and slow of heart to
believe. These are probably the two indictments concerning the church
today.

Some of us are just plain silly to close up our hearts to the inspired
scriptures. We sleep during service while the word of God is been preached
by anointed preacher. At times, we allow the cares of the world to cloud
our hearts so much that we are not listening to what the Holy Spirit is
identifying with. Or simply we are just distracted by what is going around
the church than to pay attention to God's word been preached.

The devil comes to steal, kill and destroy. What is he after foremost? It
is the word of God in our lives. When we are not letting the word of God to
touch our lives, we are basically letting the devil to make inroads into
our lives. When trial come, we will have nothing to rely on to speak to the
situation, even though we are the beloved of the Lord.

When we hear the word of God been preached, do we really believe the truth?
Do we allow the word of God to dwell within our hearts that it guards our
hearts from been troubled and fearful? Repent! Believe the truth preached.
It is easy to believe when we open our hearts to Jesus. When the preaching
is all about Jesus, beliving is effortless. The Holy Spirit jumps with joy
within everytime when Jesus is been preached.

When we believe the truth preached, we will have a strong foundation in
Christ. The wind can howl and the earth can shake and our hearts will be
still for we know Jesus is the Lord of all. His name is above all names.

Lets be quick to believe the truth and don't be blinded by the lies of the
devil. Believe that Jesus is always loving us and caring for us. Believe
that God is no longer angry with us for Christ has borne the wrath of God
at the cross. Believe God wants us to be lacking in nothing. Be prosperous
in the soul and see the wonderful manifestation of the word from without.
Praise the Lord.

Lets talk about Jesus

When one's life is touched by Jesus, that person will, unknowing, start
sharing about Jesus and what wonderful works He has done in his life.

This is so evident in the story of the Samaritian women who was living a
lifestyle of adultery. She felt embarrassed to be among the women of the
same city in the morning when they were gathering water from a well. As
such, she went to the well only in the afternoon to possibly avoid hearing
more gossip regarding her relationship with men.

One day when she was at the well, she met Jesus. That divine meeting
changed her life completely for good. All the love she was seeking for
through past marriages finally became a reality when she communed with
Jesus. Jesus has shown her only Him is the source of everlasting love. With
His love, we can love each other for He first loves us.

With the inward transformation, the Samaritian was no longer conscious of
herself and her works but was full of Jesus. And she was no longer ashamed
to even meet the people of the city. To top that, she was talking about
Jesus and what wondrous work He had done in her life.

The bible also tells us about a story of a leper who was made clean by
Jesus. The leper was breaking through the ranks to present himself in front
of Jesus. He knew that Jesus could heal him but wasn't sure if Jesus would
heal him. When Jesus answered him that He would heal him and cleansed him
of leprosy, that man can't help himself but to spread the what Jesus had
done for him.

Beloved, don't hesitate to give glory to Jesus. Give praise to Him. Don't
be embarrassed in sharing what wondrous works Jesus has done in our lives.
When Jesus is exalted in our lives, God will make sure our lives shall be
made as good testimonies to those around us.

When our lives are and still been transformed by Jesus, we just can't help
it but to share the goodness of what Jesus has done in our lives. Give
praise to Jesus. For He has completely completed the finished work at the
cross. Hallelujah!

My God is A righteous God!

God is righteous to forgive all our sins for Jesus has paid the punishment
for every committed sin, past, present and future. Jesus is the over
payment for all our sins!

With that finished work at the cross, Jesus has divinely exchanged His
position of righteousness with our position of guilt and sin. With one act
of divine exchange we are made the righteousness of God in Christ. We are
drafted into the kingdom of God. We are sons and daughters of Abba Father.

Why is God righteous to send His only begotten Son, Jesus to be crucified
at the cross? Because of the covenant He had cut with Abraham. Because
Abraham was willing to sacrifice his only begotten son, Isaac as the
sacrificial lamb, God is righteous to send His only begotten Son, Jesus to
be the perfect offering for our sins.

With the redemptive work completed at the cross, God is righteous in
blessing us, His children. Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law
for cursed is He who hangs on the tree. With Christ, He will freely give us
all things to enjoy. We have no part to play in the giving of blessings but
every part to receive what God has freely given!

If we are facing some form of terminal diseases, know that by His stripe,
we are already made whole, healed and completely freed from the diseases.
The syptoms may linger on but its root has been cut off from our bodies!

If we are facing a mountain of debts, know that by the grace of God, Jesus
was made poor at the cross that we through His poverty shall be made rich.

Nothing is impossible with God. Whatever the problem may be, cast it upon
the feet of Jesus, for He cares. He cares for our every minute detail of
our lives. He even count the number of hair on our heads.

My God is a covenant keeping God. At the cross, God cuts a covenant with
the perfect Man, Jesus, so that whatever is of God is ours to proclaim and
receive. Every promise in the bible is yes and amen! God will bless me for
my sin and lawless deed He shall remember no more for He has remembered
every one of them at the cross on the body of Jesus Christ! Hallelujah!

Trust God for He is a good God. He will always make sure we abundantly
provided for, lacking in nothing. Praise Him and worship Him for He is good
and His mercy endures forever!

Just enjoy God's love

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever
believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

God is still working on His master plan in loving His people. His love for
His people is unconditional. His love for us doesn't depend on our good
behaviour. His love for us doesn't depend on us loving Him. He loves us
like He loves His only begotten Son, Jesus.

This agape love is unceasing and unending. It is all about His love for
Jesus for Jesus represents us. Hallelujah! Just bask in Abba Father's love
for us and enjoy His love. Focus His love like the magnifying glass on our
lives and see miracles manifesting in our lives.

We can love God becausee He first loved us. We can then love each other
because we know we are the beloved. We extend the love that we have
received from Abba Father to those around us.

When we know we are the beloved, we can live life with zeal! There is a
spring in our step. We can deal with dire situations with no fear for His
perfect love for us casts out all fear.

The bible also says that God has given us a spirit of power and love and
sound mind. This is possible because of Jesus and His finished work at the
cross. When Jesus was crucified at the cross, He didn't die for Himself for
He was sinless but He was carrying the sin of the world upon Himself, He
was representing us at the cross! Wow! What love is this that the Son of
God would die for me!

When He rose from the grave, we also in Him have risen from the dead. Enjoy
His love for us daily. Each moment of our lives, remember His agape love
for us. Live life with the knowing that we are the beloved and He is caring
care of our every need every moment. Hallelujah.

You can't out give God!

God is lavish God. He has given all things freely through Christ Jesus.
With the completed work at the cross some two thousand years ago, we the
beloved of the the Lord are being made righteous before God.

When God sent His Son Jesus to die at the cross, He bascially gave the
world His best. With Him comes righteousness, health, and prosperity!
Everything that we need is found in Jesus.

Abraham offered Isaac as the sacrifice but God offered Jesus as THE
ultimate sacrifical Lamb that will take away all our sins once and for all!
Oh! What an unfair exchange! Jesus is the over payment for our sins. God
will never be a debtor to anyone.

Jacob promised to give one tenth of all his increase to Jesus and God
subsequently blessed him with everything. That's the lavish nature of Abba
Father. He will always supply with more than enough for God doesn't know
what is enough! Hallelujah!

After the children of Israel came out of Egypt, they offered their clothing
and leather skin for the building of the tabernacle. For forty years in the
wilderness, the clothing of the children didn't wear out and neither is the
sandal on their feets. God is so good, what little the children of Israel
gave, God out gave them all!

When Jesus gave thanks for the five pieces of bread and two fishes, God out
poured His grace upon that little offering with twelve baskets full of
leftover after five thousand men, not counting women and children, had been
filled. That's just the way God shows His grace.

Beloved, we can't out give God. When we give our time to God, God will
multiple that back to us so that we can accomplish so much more with the
same amount of time within a day.

When we give our finance to the Lord, God will make sure we have more than
enough. He will make sure we have so much more to be a blessing to those
around us. When we give our energy to God, we will find ourselves having so
much more energy to go about our daily endeavours.

Trust God in His grace. God shall never be a debtor to anyone. Trust is His
goodness and see His miraculous power working mightily in us. Hallelujah!

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life.

Surely. Definitely. Beyond a shadow of doubt. Positively positive. Surely,
a promise made by the Lord Himself. The Lord says goodness and mercy shall
follow me.

Goodness: good things which we don't deserve. The glory of God Almighty.
What Jesus had sacrificed to give. Something which we don't work for.
Blessings. A grace gift.

Mercy: punishment which we deserve but will never come to us for Jesus had
bore all our punishment. Receiving good things which we don't deserve. God'
grace. God's loving kindness. Another grace gift.

The bible says surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my
life. One translation says goodness and mercy will haunt me down. They will
make sure I will always have the good things in life. They will make sure
things that Jesus has paid for will come to my life. They will make sure
things which Jesus has borne will not come near me.

What then are the good things which Jesus has paid for? It is the blessing
of Abraham. Prosperity for the soul and health. Financial prosperity. Most
importantly, it is sonship with Abba Father. It is just too numerous to
individually name all the blessings that God has for us!

What then are things which should happen to us but Jesus has borne them
all? Cursings under the law, ill health, financial lack, broken
relationship, terminal diseases, bondage, just to name a few. Praise God
Jesus had taken the punishment for our transgression and iniquities that we
shall be healthy and wealthy.

Surely goodness and mercy SHALL follow me all the days of my life. Shall:
certainly, will. Praise God He put goodness and mercy before all the days
of my life! When God said He will let His goodness passed over Moses after
he had asked God to show him His glory, Moses saw the back side of God.
Hallelujah! Could this be that goodness is referring to Jesus Himself? I
think so. The bible also says that God is full of mercy: meaning Jesus is
mercy as well! Praise God, surely Jesus will haunt me down all the days of
my life!

And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever! He who dwells in the
secret place of the most high shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
Wow! In the house of the Lord there is peace, joy and unending feast. In
the house of the Lord there is love, comfort and everlasting protection.
Praise God I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever!

Forever: forever, eternally. God is not referring to my mansion in heaven,
He is referring to His church. For in the church there is where the
beloveds of the Lord feast on the word of God. For in the church there is
safety. For in the church, Jesus is been revealed through the preaching and
teaching of God's anointed leader.

Just look to Jesus. He is the living word of God. When I go after Jesus,
all good things come after me for all good things go after Jesus!

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies

Hallelujah!

The Lord prepares a table. What is the purpose of the table? The purpose of
the table is to serve the bread and wine. It speaks of the finished work of
Jesus at the cross. It serves as the reminder to my enemies that my Lord
has a covenant with me and all who come against me come against the Lord.

It is the Lord who prepares the table before me. It is Jesus who is the
sacrificial lamp on the cross who has finished the complete work. Worthy is
the Lamp and no one else.

The work has been completed from the beginning of the world. It has been
accomplished before the foundation of the earth. That's why Jesus prepares
the table and not me. For He is always preparing my way before I walk
through it.

Isn't it interesting that the bible says the Lord prepares a table before
me in the presence of my enemies? Why in the presence of my enemies? Jesus
wants me to know when I am facing my enemies face to face, He is there with
me and He is doing all the miraculous works to see me through.

How did the children of Israel feel when they were faced with the Red Sea
and the Egyptian army hot on their heels? I think they probably thought
they were going to die because they cried out to Moses saying so. That's
when the Lord appeared as a wall of fire protecting the children of Israel
from the Egyptian army and asked Moses to use his rod to split open the Red
Sea to allow only the children of Israel to pass through!

God may seem to be late but His timing is always perfect!

The Lord anoints my head with oil and my cup runs over!

The Lord pours forth His golden oil into my life till it is overflowing. He
keeps on pouring so that I can be a blessing to those around me. He never
ceases to keep doing that for it is His delight to supply my every need!

A shepherd will put oil on the head of a sheep to ward off flies. In the
same vein of thought, the Lord anoints my head to ward off all my enemies!
Hallelujah! His very presence will repel every evil from my life. He is the
answer to my every need, and He will see to it that it is met. Hallelujah!

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death.

There were times when in the moment of foolishness or stupidity we did
things that were outright idiotic or moronic, which we were not able to
sensibly reason out why we did what we did in the first place.

For some of us, we thought that that was the end of ourselves, the end of
our lives. There seemed to be complete darkness. There seemed to be no
hope. There seemed to be complete darkness! Oppression was all around. Fear
was everywhere. Death seemed eminent.

Yet the bible says I walk through the valley of the shadow of death! Praise
the Lord the bible says I walk through. Walk in the bible signifies
calmness, steadiness, unhurried, cool. Praise the Lord that we I walk
through. This means I will always end out victorious at the end of the day,
though I am already victorious in Christ.

I will always end up on the path of righteousness. All things will turn out
for my good. They may not be good things in the beginning but all things
will work out for my good!

Praise the Lord it is just a shadow of death, not death itself. For Jesus
had conquered death for me. Hallelujah! Since when does shadow ever kill
anyone. It may scare some of us whose hearts are troubled and fearful. But
it will never be able to overcome those in the light, the beloveds of the
Lord.

In spite of the dire situations, I can fear no evil for the Lord is with
me. Wow! The Lord IS with me. He was with me yesterday. He is with me
today. He is going to be there with me forever He is the same yesterday,
today and forever! The Lord will never leave me nor forsake me!

The Lord will never allow the righteous soul to famish, to be put to shame.
This is the word of God. The word of God has power to transform and to make
whole. It is the Lord that does these things. He comfort me with His rod
and staff.

His rod is to defend me against those who come to harm and hurt me. It is
to ward off evil before the evil can even come near me. The Lord is a
Shield to those who put their trust in Him. Those who put their trust in
the Lord are like houses built upon the solid Rock. The storms may come and
the wave may hit against it but the house will stand for it is built on
Christ the solid Rock. Hallelujah!

He restores my soul

He restores my soul.

The good Lord is the one restoring my soul. Not an angel, not a samaritian
but Jesus Himself restores.

Thank God the word restores is in the present tense. The bible doesn't say
restored or going to restore. It says restores. At this present moment, the
Lord restores. He is continually restoring my soul. He is constantly making
me whole. He never ceases to do me good.

The bible says the beloved of the Lord should prosper and be in health just
as the soul prospers. This implies the level of my soul prosperity will
determine the level of financial prosperity. Praise God for His wonder
working power to prosper and make whole my soul.

There is therefore no condemnation for those in Christ. My soul can be at
the state of rest and shalom because of Jesus' finished work at the cross.

He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name's sake.

The Lord personally leads me and guides me in the path of righteousness.
With the divine exchange at the cross some 2000 years ago, I am made the
righteousness of God in Christ. The Lord is my righteousness!

When you follow Jesus, you are following righteousness Himself. All
goodness will chase after you for you are now going after Jesus. The bible
says the Lord leads mes in the paths of righteousness. Wherever Jesus
leads, it will be a path of righteousness!

Jesus doesn't just lead me in one path. He leads me in multiple paths and
any of these paths Jesus leads, it will be a path of righteousness! Seek
Him first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things
that the gentile seeks shall be added to me. The bible defines kingdom of
God as righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

The path of righteousness is filled with abundant supply. When one walks in
this path, he shall not lack. He shall be free from evil. He shall be like
a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its
season, whose leaf also shall not wither; and whatever he does shall
prosper. Hallelujah!

What a wonderful good news. The Saviour has come to save and nourish my
soul. Hallelujah!

He makes me lie down in green pastures

He makes me lie down in green pastures.

He: The good Shepherd. The merciful and graceful Lord. The almightly God!
The Alpha and Omega. The First and the Last. The living word who has the
last word in my life. The I am that I am. The sacrificial Lamb on the
cross. The Lion of Judah.

He: The pillar of fire in the evening. The pillar of cloud in the morning.
The bread of life. The light and morning Star. The captain of our lives.
The Lord of Hosts. My providence. My health. My strength. My wisdom. My
peace. The creator of Heaven and Earth. The One who holds all things
together.

He makes. Wow! The good Shepherd is the One who makes. He is the One who
guides. He is the One who directs through the Holy Spirit. Wherever He
leads, it will be a path of righteousness. And this path will only gets
brighter and brighter unto the perfect day.

He makes me. Once again, the good Lord is a personal God. He is always
thinking about me. When I go to the throne of grace in times of need, I
will be the only one to commune with Him. He has all the time to listen to
my every prayer and cry. He is always thinking good towards me. He has a
master plan for me which He will accomplished through me! Hallelujah!

He makes me lie down. Lie down: to rest, to be at peace, shalom. The Lord
rests me. He has bequeathed His peace to me at the cross. In the midst of a
storm, He was resting at the stern of a boat which the disciples were
fearful. He was awaken by the cry of the disciples and He immediately
calmed the storm on the outside before He calmed the storm of the
disciples' hearts.

At the cross, Jesus borne the crown of thorns so that I will have His
shalom peace reigning in my life. He shed blood of sweat so that my heart
can be free of trouble and fear.

He makes me lie down in green pastures. Wow! Jesus rests me in green
pastures. Not under! Otherwise I would be six feets underground. Jesus put
me in the middle of green pastures. He put me in the land flowing of milk
and honey. He put me right smacked in the middle of blessing, in the middle
of abundance!

Green signifies life! Green implies youthfulness. Green pastures imply a
land of plenty. It implies a land of no lack. When the Lord rests me in
green pastures, I will be able to enjoy the fruits of the land without
stress and worry. I will be able to meditate on the word of God for no evil
shall before me nor shall any plague comes near my dwelling. For I dwell in
the secret place of the most high and in that place I shall fear no evil.

He leads. Once again, it is the Lord who leads, guide and direct through
the Holy Spirit.

He leads me beside the still waters. Thank God He leads me beside the still
waters and not into the still waters for a sheep is not able to swim. When
the Lord leads me besides the still waters, I'll be able to drink to my
heart's contend. Still waters are usually fresh. They are not stagnant.
They are smooth flowing of waters which bring plentiful nutrients within
it.

Waters imply many streams. It implies plentiful supply. If one source of
waters dries up, there are many other sources to drink from. Hallelujah.

He good Lord is more than willing to bring me to a place of abundance right
here on earth. He is always leading and guiding from within so that we
shall lack nothing from without. Hallelujah!

The Lord is my Shepherd

The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want.

The Lord is my Shepherd. The: the definitie article in the English
language. The: the one and only. There is none other than Jesus, for Jesus
is Lord. A lord in olden years will spare nothing inorder to protect his
people. He will always make sure his people are well taken care of! What
more when Jesus is Lord!

The Lord IS. The bible says that the Lord is my Shepherd. Not was and not
going to be. Jesus IS my Shepherd. He is my very present help in times of
need. He is the I Am God. He is Alpha and Omega. He is the First and the
Last. Jesus will always have the last word and His word is final. His word
is the truth.

God cannot lie. It is not a matter of would not but God simply cannot lie.
He will not lie! When the bible says Jesus is our Shepherd, He means every
iota of it.

What then does Shepherd do? The good Shepherd guide His flock through the
path of righteousness to green pastures to feed. He will make sure all His
sheeps are well taken care of. Sheeps are not very smart and they depend
solely on a shepherd to take care of them.

We are liken to be sheeps. Jesus is the shepherd. He will even give His
life for His precious sheeps. Even if one sheep was to stray away, He will
go all the way to bring back that strayed sheep. He will put the strayed
sheep on His shoulders and walk back to His flock.

The bible says the Lord is MY shepherd. My is a very personal term. It
implies intimacy. The Lord is a very personal God. He will treat our every
communication with Him as private and confidential. He will also correct us
privately. Yet He will not hesitate to praise us in public. Like when Jesus
rose from Jordan river, Abba Father openly declared Jesus is His beloved
Son in whom He is well pleased. Jesus had not perform a single miracle
then!

I shall not want. I is a personal term again. The bibles doesn't say he,
she or we shall not want. The bible says I shall not want. Hallelujah!

Shall is a very strong English word. One dictionary says shall is defined
as will definitely do. It also says obliged to. This implies that Jesus
will make sure we are lacking in nothing. Be it physical health, be it
financial prosperity, or be it emotional wellbeing. It is all encompassing.
The bible says we shall be lacking in absolutely nothing. We shall be
abundantly provided for, in every aspect of our lives.

Jesus is the good Shepherd who sacrificed His life some 2000 years ago.
Through that finished work at the cross, he has given us every everything
that we need. He will provide for our every want according to His riches
and glory. Hallelujah!

Hope against all hope

We can hope against all hope for God is faithful. He will never allow the
righteous soul to famish.

We can believe God for His goodness and mercy for surely them shall hunt us
down all the days of our lives. God sent His precious Son, Jesus to die for
us at the cross some two thousand years so that we can be re-united with
Abba Father through the divine exchange at the cross.

The almightly God do not sleep nor slumber. He is always working for our
good. He wants us to have the best in life. For God gave His only begotten
Son, Jesus to die for us so that we can have life and life more abundantly.
Whatever the need, Jesus will see that it is provided for.

When Lazarus was dead for four days, both his sisters cried their hearts
out and properly would have lost all hope of him been resurrected. When
Jesus was at Lazarus' tomb, He asked that the tomb stone be removed and
called forth Lazarus. At that very instance, Lazarus was resurrected! A man
that has died for four days was resurrected.

When Jesus was making His way to save Jairus' daughter from her sickness,
He was stopped in His track for a woman with a issue of blood for twelve
years had taken her healing from Jesus. Jesus turned to the woman to assure
her of His love and peace for her. What twelve years of hopelessness of
recovery from the blood issue was wiped away through a single stroke of
God's grace!

In the meantime, a Jairus' servant came to inform him that his daughter has
died. Jairus would have been heart broken to lose his daughter. Yet Jesus
assured him to just believe that his daughter shall be well. Jesus later
raise Jairus daughter from the dead!

Beloved of the Lord, regardless of how dire straits the situation may be,
do not lose faith. For faith is the substance of things hoped for, the
evidence of things not seen. See Jesus in His grace and He will see you in
your faith. Nothing is impossible to God. Though God may seem late, He is
always on time. His timing is always perfect. Just keep believing God for
His goodness. He only have good thought toward us. Hallelujah!

Cast all your cares unto Jesus

Cast all your cares unto Jesus for He cares. For the bible says that those
who labour and are heavy laden are to come to Jesus and He will give them
rest.

The word of God is the truth. It is not just a statement of fact but
eternal truth. When Jesus says He shall provide for all our needs according
to His riches and glory, He means it! If only we will come to Him.

The bible also says the devil goes around seeking like a roaring lion who
he may devour. However, who are those that he may devour? The bible says in
the preceeding verse that we should cast all our cares unto Jesus for He
cares. The devil cannot devour a peaceful and restful Christian!
Conversely, those who are worrysome and fearful are prey to the toothless
devil. With these fears and worries, the devil is able to gum a Christian
to death.

How then do we cast all our cares unto Jesus? The bible says Christians
should be anxious for nothing, but in everything, with prayer and
supplication, with thansgiving let our request be made known to God. And
the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard our hearts
and minds through Christ Jesus.

Cast our cares unto Jesus and be anxious for nothing. Give thanks to God
that the request has been fulfilled. Sing praise to God for it has been
accomplished at the cross.

If there is symptom of dreaded disease still lingering, cast that care unto
Jesus for by His stripe, that dreaded disease has been dealth with. If
there is any lack, trust Jesus to deliver for we know by the grace of God,
He was made poor at the cross that we through His poverty shall be made
rich!

Let go and let God! God is more than willing to see to our every need and
want. If only we will stop worrying and instead cast our every care unto
Jesus. Hallelujah!

Jesus Loves Me, This I Know

For God so loved the world that He sent His only begotten Son to die at the
cross so that the world through His death shall be saved.

Many believe Jesus died for the world but not for them. They don't
personalise Jesus' love in their lives. They think Jesus will only heal
others and not them. They think Jesus will only prosper others and not
them. They think Jesus is able to do all miracles but not for them.

Oh, how wrong can these people be! The bible tells us of a story of a leper
asking if Jesus is willing to heal him of his leprosy. Jesus, who has all
power, is willing and He reached out to touch the leper and made him whole.
That's the love of Jesus!

In another incident, Jesus turned around to look at the woman with the
issue of blood who had taken her healing from Him to assure her of His love
for her and His shalom in her life. That's personal. Jesus had no issue
moving on to heal Jairus' sick daughter but He took the time to address the
woman personally before moving on.

The bible tells us of another incident where Jesus protected the woman
caught in an adultery. Jesus did it in style even when the Pharisees and
Scribes were trying to put Jesus in a spot. His love for the woman will
make sure the woman was protected from her accusors and that there was no
more condemnation for the woman for He was going to bear all demnation at
the cross.

In our daily lives, be conscious of Jesus' personal love in our lives. For
perfect love casts out all fears. Jesus is ever loving and caring and most
willing to take care of our every challenging situations and trials and
turn them for our good.

His greatest love for me was exhibited at the cross. At the cross, He
divinely exchanged His righteous position for my sinful nature. Whoever He
is, I am, for He lives in me. Greater is He who lives in me than he who is
of the world! Be aware Jesus is always loving me. He loving nature will
protect me from all harm. Hallelujah!

Right Believing

Believe right and we will live right for right believing leads to right
living.

What's right believing then? Right believing is nothing more than the
inward knowing that a child of God is made righteous by the precious blood
of Jesus only. It is the consciousness of the finished work by Jesus at the
cross. It is the awareness of the completeness of Jesus' finished work at
the cross for the bible says that the work was already completed before the
beginning of the world.

How then by right believing can lead to right living? When a child of God
believes right, he or she will be restful within. When the aggressive peace
of Jesus is precedence in a Christian's life, that Christian will go about
his or her activities directed by the Holy Spirit. When an action is of the
Holy Spirit, it is definitely good, and right! Hence, right living!

However some of us still believe we have to live right more than believe
right. I am talking about a life of inactivity but rather a life that is
full of Holy Spirit directed activities! Sadly, we do things thinking we
are the captain of our ships and that everything depends on us in getting
things accomplished. We do things out of knowledge of good and evil rather
than out of rest within.

Repent for the work at the cross by Jesus is completely complete and
thoroughly finished. Believe that all our every need is already provided by
Jesus. Nothing catches God by surprise. Believe God when He says all things
will work out for our good. Rest in the shalom peace of God even in the
midst of a perfect storm and we will see the miracle that we need!
Hallelujah!

Cultivate the presence of the Lord

The bible says that the Lord will never leave us nor forsake us. Surely,
goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life!

In the midst of two or three, Jesus is there. Jesus always wants to be in
the midst of everything. Jesus always wants to be initimately involved in
everything we do. He already has the answer long before we face the
challenge. He wants us to know that Abba Father loves us and He is more
than willing to come into our situation and turn the whole thing for our
good.

However, we look to our own strength to resolve our problems most of the
time. We think we must be the one to do it for there is none other more
suited for the job. We think we are responsible for everything in our
lives.

We live as if there is no God in our lives. We live lives like we are the
captains of our ships. We do things thinking that by our own strength and
determination we are able to overcome all difficulties in our lives.

When we are not conscious of Jesus' presence in our lives, that will be
true. However, we have a loving almighty Heaven Father who wants to be so
involved in our every endeavour, big or small. Cultivate His presence and
see the working miracle power of God.

When we know Jesus is in control, we can live lives with a sense of
assurance that all things will turn out to be good for us. That's what the
bible says. When we are Jesus conscious, we do things knowing that He is
working within us, and through us. We can work out of rest and not of
worry.

When we know Jesus is in us, we can do all thing through Him who
strengthens us from winthin. We can face our problems with full expectation
that God will turn things for our good. Enjoy His presence all the days of
our lives and see His working miracle power manifested in our lives.
Hallelujah!
