DESTINED TO BE.

   In the midst of so many people in a group, there is always a need for someone to take the lead. Among those that are of the same quality, there is always a person who is outstanding. Been outstanding doesn't mean the person has the qualifications, but there is a place of favor, Love, and mercy which is GRACE.
   If the world was to give anyone Love, favour, and mercy, one day the person must have to pay back. But when God shows His, it's everlasting. That is the reason why we Christians must understand that we aren't just a coincidence, but predestined set of people selected by grace to show forth God praises.
   There is a purpose of your calling, it depends on your readiness. You aren't called out of so many people for nothing but you are out of to effect a change in something. To every call, there is a purpose for it.
   Our call to salvation is to make the world know there is a God who can make you a sign and a wonder. Let's take a look at men in the Scripture. Noah was called to save the world from the destruction coming upon it (Genesis 6:9-22). Abraham was called to be a channel of blessings( Genesis 12:1-2). Joseph was called to be a great leader( Genesis 37:1-11). Peter was called to be a fisher of men into God's kingdom(Matthew 4:19). Paul was called to take the gospel of Christ to the gentiles( Acts 13:2). You are called to be a change in one thing or the other (1peter 2:9).
   It doesn't matter where you are now or what you do, as far as God is involved, he can turn a drop of water into a mighty ocean. Faithful is He that has called you because He will do the job (1 Thessalonians 5:24), he wants you to be His representative. There is always a God-given space for you to occupy. You don't need to search, He will create it. So don't think of being like someone else, because He's got a great plan for you. Have FAITH that He's got you covered.
   You don't have to be qualified before you are called but when you are called, grace becomes the qualification. Do not worry about what the future holds or where He's taking you to.
   As far as God is leading, the journey is always glorious at the end, but first, you have to come unto salvation by believing in Jesus Christ as Lord and savior. Then, know your place and look up to Him for the filling of the space to show forth His praises. SHALOM!!!

Wrap Ups

Endings are better than beginnings. Sticking to it is better than standing out ( Ecclesiastes 7:8; MSG). The end justifies the means and starting could be great, but there is nothing as fulfilling and satisfying as the wrapping up of a thing with strength and grace. It is better not to start anything at all than to give up halfway. If we must start a thing, then we must follow through to the end. It builds discipline, consistency, and focus. When a person sets out for a journey, the thing expected on the way can only be assumed but not accurate. Which makes the destination and finishing well a necessity for greatness and forging further. This year has been amazing and some many things were unexpected, but regardless of the emotions experienced, God is good! When we thought it was over and there was no way we will make it, He showed and made a way. The most important thing when we are wrapping up anything is Thanksgiving. It could have only been God. If only we c...

Beyond the natural laws

    Laws are laid down principles to help people to walk in certain directions. It is structured, firm, and sometimes rigid. Laws are expected to always follow the same pattern and anyone found doing differently will be accused and penalized. The scribes and Pharisees were always angry at the ways and teachings of our Lord Jesus Christ because he wasn't doing the same as them yet have mind-blowing impacts better than theirs. He taught, people listened and yielded, but they force people to do it their own way (Mark 6:1-3).    They are ignorant that even though we have one big God, He is diverse in his ways and acts. No wonder people find it difficult to believe in the ways and characters of a child of God. It is a life led by the wind of God's Spirit because it's beyond the normal laws they believe in. Natural laws are principles generally accepted by people and passed down from one generation to another. We are Christians. We operate in the supernatural ...

Fear in the Process

There is an African proverb that says, "the demon you've known for a while is better than the angel you just met". As weird as this sounds, many people consciously or unconsciously act it out. This shows the hardness of people's hearts towards change. Change is constant, but it can be a very weird process and experience. The Israelites desired to go back to Egypt and continue the life of slavery and pain that they were used to than to be in the wilderness and uncertain of what the promised land looked like. Yours might not be as dramatic as the Exodus. It could be the Lord telling to you take steps about your finances by saving and sowing. Or leaving the life that is not accurate with the word and plan of God for your life. It could be for you to stop saying to yourself and others, "That's who I am and I can't change." Our change experiences are different. You know what the Lord is addressing in your life. And it may have raised questions of doubt li...
