No Coincident

In life we all have or had people we look up to, people we admire or people who inspire us to do more. But the truth is sometimes our role models do fail or don’t reach our expectations. In a situation like that it is so easy to begin to think and wonder if you will ever be able to go past the stumbling blocks that made them fail.

For years David (the shepherd boy) had been blessed to have Saul as his role model. Saul was a great warrior. He was well respected among his people and by the neighboring nations. But when the time came for him to face Goliath, he could not stand against the giant.

The opportunity availed itself, the king announced: “I will give great wealth to the man who kills Goliath…” When David heard of the opportunity he jumped to it! He didn’t say, “I’m just a shepherd boy.” But David looked back in his life, and remembered the time when God gave him strength to kill both the lion and the bear when tending the sheep. He then realized that the same God who gave him strength before can still do it again!

I challenge you today to look back and remember the good times when God showed up in your life, to remember the times when God answered your prayer. As you do so; you will gain strength to move forward, to climb the mountains your parents couldn’t climb and progress to the next level that your role models couldn’t get to! What God did for you in the past was not a co-incident, but it was a foretaste of what He is about to do next in your life!

What You Do While Waiting Upon The Lord , Matters! Part II

What you do while waiting for your breakthrough or your miracle could be a key to unlock your supernatural blessing! Think about this, the same prisoner whom Joseph interpreted his dream was the one who helped him out of prison. He spoke a good word for him before Pharaoh. Imagine if he had withdrew his gift; Joseph could have died in prison and never saw the great things God had in store for him! What are you doing today with what you have while waiting on God? Could it be possible that you already have a key to your breakthrough!

Yeah , I Tried...!

So there I was, you know, trying to convince God that I wasn't the right person for his blessing, I didn't deserve his favor and whatever that he thought I could become. I gave him all the reasons why I wasn't the best; I told him about my insecurities, my worst background that I don't even tell other people about. O, did he forget that I messed up where I ran away from? I told him all these to convince him that I was not the right person he can use! Seeing that nothing I said could convince him; I said to him, ok God but at least I'm satisfied with where I am. Everybody is good around me in fact I even have children and they are all happy here! Even though I had graduated with many degrees in Egypt but hey, I couldn't convince God not to bless me. Like Moses, in the above conversation;"How many times do we try and convince God that he cannot use us for great things? How many times do we believe our backgrounds, mistakes and insecurities when they tell us t...

This is another level of life.

When Jane, a twelve year old girl would cry in order for her mother to pay close  attention to her; Joane (Jane's mother) would quickly attend to her, pampering and  tapping lightly on her back with massaging strokes of her hand. At that young age, Jane enjoyed this experience so much such that it became her normal. However, as she grew older, she noticed that her mother had changed  her response towards her. She then realized that she had to do something different in order to regain her mother's attention... One of the obstacle that stands on our way or delays us from getting to another level of life is to try and solve today's problem with yesterday's formula. Just because a certain method worked wonders on yesterday's problem, does not necessarily mean that it can work on today's problem. Joshua understood this very clearly at the face of the raging river Jordan that was at a flooding stage. Instead of using the staff of Moses that parted the red see; Jo...
