BE A SIGNPOST

Image
“ And the Syrians had gone out on raids and had brought back captive a young girl from the land of Israel. She waited on Naaman’s wife. Then she said to her mistress, ‘If only my master were with the prophet who is in Samaria! For he would heal him of his leprosy.’”  ( 2 Kings 5:2–3 ) Naaman was a great general who handed many military victories to the king of Assyria. But Naaman had a problem he had leprosy.  Fortunately, a young servant girl captured from the land of Israel worked for Naaman’s wife. At an opportune time, the servant girl told Naaman’s wife that Naaman could be healed if he would see the prophet, Elisha. Ultimately, Naaman acted on the information, and he was healed from his leprosy. This “unimportant” servant girl was a signpost who pointed the way for Naaman to experience salvation from this deadly disease. We may feel insignificant and unimportant. However, as believers, we are messengers who are able to tell people about the cure f...

DIVINELY ARRANGED, BEAUTIFULLY TIMED

Ecclesiastes 3:11  “He has made everything beautiful in its time…” blessing of a miracle child even though she was barren and her husband was old (see 2 Kings 4:8–17). A few years later, it was this friendship with the man of God, which saw her through a crisis when her son fell seriously ill and died—Elisha raised her son back to life (see 2 Kings 4:18–37). When God is the one orchestrating the events in your life, neither lack nor danger nor destruction can affect you. When famine hit the land, the Shunammite woman’s family did not suffer because through Elisha, God had told them to leave the land. They went to the land of the Philistines and dwelt there throughout the seven years of famine (see 2 Kings 8:1–2). God can place you at the right place at the right time, even through your daily decision-making. The Shunammite woman returned to Shunem after the famine had ended. She then decided to appeal to the king of Israel for he...

GOD'S DEALING ARE JUST

Image
"No more no less of my words, this is the conviction in my heart. You see when I understood the meaning of life it has been everything but hard to make out every situation in my life •yes even the hard ones• esp the hard ones that especially when I questioned if I was meant at the moment and why wasn't I? Probably I thought it was too much for me. But am here! I handled it, it is as he said nothing is too much than you, I can handle it." "So I finally figured it out *power of the brain* our brains are one powerful part. ||And this is just how|| Like any Control Center [my brain] (is)am able to tell poison from honey in any situation within me and this has helped me a great deal past few months because I am able to stand on focus and my heart is a fortress." "If it can't fall I never will fall. It takes a little convincing to the heart. And as you know the heart loves anything happy and cheerful..with this achievement...

THE PROBLEM WITH FAMILIARITY.

Image
Familiarity is a curse. Familiarity is the source of many problems in our life. The problem however is that familiarity is not too familiar to many people such that they do not know its effect on their life. Too many marriages are breaking because the couple has become familiar to each other, too many families are being torn apart because children have become too familiar with their parents that they can no longer listen to them, people have lost their jobs because they became so familiar with it such that they could no longer follow the rules and sadly too many people have fallen short of the glory of God because they were too familiar to God. The list is endless...... The " familiar " word comes from the Latin word  familiaris , meaning a “ household servant .” This means that when you are familiar with someone or something, you regard that person or thing as your household servant. Someone who is at your beck and call and who should respect you not the other way...

WORKING A GODLY RELATIONSHIP

Image
Hebrews 10:24-25   "And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another and all the more as you see the Day approaching." Learning how to love your neighbor requires a willingness to draw on the strength of Jesus Christ as you die to self and live for Him. Living in this manner allows you to practice biblical love for others in spite of adverse circumstances or your feelings to the contrary. Love your neighbors through thick and thin... Don't seek to please them, but to please your Master; and remember, if they spurn your love, your Master has not spurned it, and your deed is acceptable to Him as if it had been acceptable to them. There's something like radar inside the human heart that senses the displeasure of others. Displeasure and ingratitude are like a repellant to human relationships. Aloness can lead...

FOUR DANGEROUS SYMPTOMS OF PRIDE.

Image
Pride is the undoing of the Christians faith. It most often breeds overconfidence in our lives while preventing us from doing the one thing we should be…calling out for our Savior. As Jesus said in Mark 2:17 “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.” When we allow pride to rule our lives, we tend to push Christ to the side…because, after all we aren’t sick. As dangerous as it is, pride is also very difficult to spot. Have you ever heard the saying “I’m the least prideful person I know.” We laugh, but often we subconsciously take on that attitude. There are many areas in our lives in which pride can seep in. For that reason we have compiled a few symptoms of pride for us as believers to self diagnose When we allow pride to rule our lives, we tend to push Christ to the side…because, after all we aren’t sick. As dangerous as it is, pride is also very difficult to spot. Have you ever heard the saying “I...

WHEN GOD SPEAKS EVERYTHING CHANGES

Image
"When God speaks atmospheres change. When God speak tree world have got to come to order both the demonic world, angelic world and the kingdom of man have to come to ordering God speaks. When God speaks things have to change they can't remain the same and until God speaks your situations will remain the same. So whatever the prophet, apostle or the preacher is going to release into your world, you have to yell what God is saying because unless He speak nothing will change everything will remain the same. I do believe that when God speaks everything that seems impossible becomes possible, and if we need a change to happen next year we need to start now. Even if we see other people killing each other we need to go deeper in prayers because God backs His word. I know that what seems difficult is got to be made easier and that can only be done when God speaks." © Jacob Mcmende Mokoit ®™°√ #Keep_Peace #Love_one_another Despite everything we are #One_Kenya_One_N...

YOU MAY FEEL DEPRESSED, REJECTED, DOWN, LOW SPIRITED, GLOOMY, DISCOURAGED, SAD, BLUE, OVERWHELMED OR UNHAPPY AND EVERY PROBLEM MAY SEEM MUCH BIGGER THAN IT REALLY IS.

Image
When you’re feeling down, everything may seem very bleak, and it may seem hard for you to keep your eyes on God. You may feel Depressed, Down, Sad, Gloomy, Unhappy, Blue, Distressed, Rejected, Low Spirited, Discouraged and Overwhelmed, and every problem may seem much bigger than it really is. #1 Remember God hears you – Cry out to God Psalm 34:17-20, When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all. He keeps all his bones; not one of them is broken. Psalm 18:6, In my distress I called upon the LORD; to my God I cried for help. From his temple he heard my voice, and my cry to him reached his ears. Philippians 4:6-7, do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, whi...

BELIEVE YOUR DEBT IS MORE THAN PAID

   Hebrews 10:22 "let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water"  . I would like you to imagine this scenario: You borrow a huge sum of money from a friend and promise to pay him back in six months’ time. When the time comes, you feel really bad because you cannot repay him as you don’t have the money. A year rolls by without you repaying a cent. Now, you feel extremely guilty. You try to avoid your friend because you are too embarrassed and ashamed to see him. Let’s say that your best friend hears about your plight. Out of the goodness of his heart, he goes to your creditor and says, “Look, I understand that my best friend owes you money.” “Yes, he owes me KSH50,000.” “Here is KSH100,000. I am paying you on his behalf.” Your creditor says, “No, no, no! He owes me only KSH50,000.” Your best friend says, “I know. But take the KSH100,000 so that you c...

THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD EXPOSES YOUR PERFECTION

John 8:12 "Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.”  When I was a teenager, I heard preachers saying this: “Jesus is the light of the world. So don’t think for one moment that you can do things behind His back. His light will expose all the bad things that you have done!” So I was afraid to come near God, fearing that His glorious light would show up my faults, weaknesses and shame. But is this what “the light of the world” does? The truth is found in the context of the verse. Jesus declared that He was the light of the world right after He had told the woman caught in the act of adultery, “Woman, where are those accusers of yours? Has no one condemned you?” When she said, “No one, Lord”, He said to her, “Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more.” Then, the Bible tells us that “Jesus spoke to them again,...
