Disobeying God is costly...

Every now and then God speaks. "Don't go there, help there, don't touch that", He says. Sometimes his voice is so clear simple because it is mostly in line with the scriptures. For example, when God says 'give there', it's easy to accept or carry out that instruction than when He says, 'don't give' because giving is in line with the prevalent or most read scripture in the pulpit.

King Saul was told by God to kill everything and spare nothing but he disobeyed. 1 Samuel 15:9 AMP Saul and the people spared Agag and the best of the sheep, oxen, fatlings, lambs, and all that was good, and would not utterly destroy them; but all that was undesirable or worthless they destroyed utterly. You see, if something is not good before God; it is not good at all. Destroy it while you still have power to, and before it cost you something great you wouldn't want to lose.

What then did Saul lose? 1 Samuel 15:28 AMP And Samuel said to him, The Lord has torn the kingdom of Israel from you this day and has given it to a neighbor of yours who is better than you. Saul therefore lost his kingdom and it was given to somebody else. I personally don't aspire to be like Saul. I don't want to lose what God has prepared for me. I hope this is your desire too. May you do what the Lord asks you to do whether it feels good or painful.

I pray that when God speaks you will harken to his voice. If you do, you will experience miracles after miracles in your life. John 2:5 AMP His mother said to the servants, Whatever He says to you, do it. Save yourself, do what God asks of you and you will avoid a whole lot of troubles. Amen.

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...
