DO I LOVE

I know what love is. God is love. I have always learnt about the agape love of God; the selfless love.
It has however come to my attention that we can know who love is and what love is but not be able to practice it. We can do all we want to prove that we love people and do things to prove our love. We want to be like God and we try so hard to do things the way we “think” He wants us to do. We want so much for people to know that we are filled with God’s love to the point where we do things that God did not tell us to do.
It would be a great thing if we could all stick to what the Lord has told us to do and nothing more because anything beyond that will only lead to frustration. Can you believe that sometimes as Christians we do things just because we want to look blessed? We get into credit; we do a lot of crazy things because we want to look loved and blessed by God.
My plea to anyone reading this is “stick to what God tells you to do” do not try to prove to the world that you are loved and blessed; because you are. You are already blessed. God says so “you are blessed and you are loved.”
Be careful to do all that God tells you to do, so that you do not have to pretend. Be careful to do all that God tells you to do so that you do not forfeit your blessings. Amen, yes Amen.

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.

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...

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...
