PERCEIVING GRACE

   If you aren't thirsty, I don't know think there is a need to drink water. But when you see a need to drink water regularly, you get thirsty. You can't want anything until you see the need for it.
  When food and water is scarce, we will develop deficiencies. In a situation where there's famine and drought and someone offers to give food and water for free. Won't people rush towards the person, no matter how far he/she is?
   But we are in a time and era where people who need water and food aren't thirty and hungry. The Lord offers us everything our spirit man needs to grow, but surprisingly we reject Him.
   How would you feel, if you gave someone something from your heart and he/she rejects it? (If you aren't selfish or having a bias mind in the first place), you will feel bad. Even the Lord does. He gave a call and we think it wasn't for us.
   In Isaiah 55:1 He said "let  everyone that is thirsty, come he to the waters, and he hath no money, come ye, buy and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price". Oh, that's deep.
  As Christian we should know that water, wine, milk and bread are the foundation for GRACE and they have great significance. These things that make up grace made everyone that believe in Christ Jesus equal (Galatians 3:28). We are called to obtain grace, but only few understands. Some are ignorant which cause them to  struggles in grace ( they don't know what they have received). Some never believed what they know and their unbelief has blocked their spiritual senses. They don't perceive or know anything, and this cause them to think they ain't thirsty and hungry. Only those that are thirsty and hungry can be filled with the holy spirit (Matthew 5:6).
   To those that have their senses, don't get tired of been thirsty and to those that not active, ask the holy spirit to revive your spiritual senses and when you thirst, go drink from to the living water (John 7:37), when you are hungry, eat the bread of Life. All this can be activated through fasting and prayer. Fasting makes you more sensitive and prayer is the act of asking for what you perceive and want. I pray that we will never be weary in Jesus name. But we must also wait ( trust) upon the Lord and He will renew our strength in Jesus name. Amen.

You Are Mary

The first Mary was not the only lady named MARY which was recorded in the Bible is found in the new testament. She was "a virgin", which means she wasn't the only one who was a virgin in her time, but she found favor with God and was chosen to bear the Holy seed of God. Mary, the highly favored, blessed among women and the Lord was with her. That was how she was seen by the Lord. Her assignment was to carry the seed of God, deliver a son, and He shall save His people, rule them and His kingdom is forever. Her question wasn't what's in it for me? It was HOW? What's the plan? The answer was the Holy Spirit will come upon you, the power of the Highest hover over you. Therefore, the child you bring to birth will be called Holy, Son of God. It's all planned by God, yours is to align. You are Mary, but whose seed are you carrying? Definitely not Christ Jesus. But what result will the seed you are carrying bring? Are you aligned to be chosen? Are you recept...

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...

God's or Abraham's?

   The moment the word "children" appears, what comes to mind most the time is the result or outcome of a process. Especially when the psalmist was describing children in Psalms 127:3-5. My eyes were open to seeing results as children. Definitely, children have fathers. Let not go into defining children ( you can always read my post on CHILDREN), But my concern is that sometimes we (Christians) are referred to as Abraham's offspring and at the same time, we are called the children of God. How are we children of God and also Abraham's? It is possible that we are the offspring of both God and Abraham (His friend). We are considered as Abraham's offspring when we believe (Galatians 3:6-8), because the first to exercise Faith in God was Abraham and we are called his children because we are doing exactly what he did which was counted to him as righteousness(John 8:39) - FAITH . So we (believers) are the re-produced version(children) of the Father of Faith - Abraham...
