ISSUES


It has come to my realisation that we are lacking behind. There are so many people that I have met in my life including me, who are afraid of confronting issues in their lives. Our hearts are full of issues that must be dealt with.

One of the most painful things I have witnessed is that we become too busy doing stuff. We become too busy trying to help people and refuse to confront issues in our own lives. For some reason it gives us comfort to help others and forget about the pain in our lives, it is nice and easy to ignore the issues. I have seen this many times even in my own life.

I have come to believe that, this is exactly what the enemy wants. He wants to keep us bound in our little bondages. I have come to realise that if I concentrate on, confront and allow the Lord to deal with issues in my life, He ultimately brings people into my path that I can show Him to them.

It is so scary to love people, yet there is nothing to loose. It is so scary to take down our walls, yet the Lord always backs us up. I am convinced that if I deal with the issues in my life, the Lord will ultimately touch people around me. The Lord will ultimately minister to people though me. He will do His ideas through me and stuff. I am convinced that this works. AMEN
The picture has nothing to do with the blog its just people in my life.

Overcome Fear

Fear is very cunning. I believe this is an enemy to mankind. We can believe all we want in our minds that we have no fear, however it goes beyond that. Believing in just in your mind is not enough. We have to believe in our heart. Take a moment and trully search your heart. If you have fear about something acknowledged it. If we do not acknowledge our fears we will never be able to overcome and move forward. We can never overcome what we don't acknowledged.

Behold a New Thing

The Lord continually wants to show us new things in our lives. He is not a static God. He wants our lives to improve. He wants us to mature and if we are not careful we miss Him and become stagnant. What is the new thing that God wants to do in your life? Talk to him and find out directly from Him. Do not look at the new things that are happening around you and just join because remember the majority is not always right. If you feel stagnant, make a change, don’t allow yourself to be boxed up, be brave and make that change. After making that change be careful not to move backwards ask God to give you the strength to move forward. The way you used to do things before will definitely try to pull you back. If you think you made a mistake and did not hear God then by all means admit you were wrong and seek God for your next step. Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the d...

Being Tried and Tested

I have made a lot of mistakes in my life and most of them have been caused by rushing into things. Don’t get me wrong I am happy and glad that my life turned out the way it did. I am glad that God never gives up on us (people) but continues to train them as long as we do not cut ourselves off. Spiritual matters are not supposed to be rushed into. There are a lot of trials and tests that we have to pass through before we can step into our spiritual calling. People will never really understand God’s path for us, and we as well do not understand the path that God has for us, He reveals it bit by bit because His thoughts and ways are higher than ours. God cannot be mocked and manipulated. God will never bend to our will but we are the ones who are supposed to surrender to His will. Our spiritual backbone is continually strengthened as we pass through different trials. I have come to have a different outlook on trials and tests. I have always thought that God is a cruel God by allowing...
