Seeing the Light in Darkness. When you are tired of self-help and need motivation to move forward,

30/12/2022

As we draw close to the last work day of the year, I reflected on all that's happened in 2022.

Perhaps, like me, you've experienced some major shifts in your career or moved to a different work environment.

Or perhaps you've achieved an important milestone for your business.

And some of us may be trusting the Lord for a better opportunity in business or employment.

Whatever you are believing the Lord for, Daddy God is right there beside you. He promised to be with us always, until the end of time, and He's a promise keeper.

As we take time to usher in the new year with family and friends, take time to remind them that the Lord loves them dearly, as He does you, and He will SURELY CAUSE 2023 to be a BLESSED YEAR for you and your family!

04/12/2022

Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers.
III John 1:2

I declare that the plans of the evil one to steal, to kill and to destroy be reversed and Daddy God's blessing flow abundantly in every area of your life and that no evil shall befall you nor any plague come near you.

You shall be the head and not the tail, the first and but the last.

You shall enjoy his Zoe life every day on earth as it is in heaven, you shall walk in His plans for you and be a blessing to all around you.

Shalom!

01/12/2022

Base your hope in the Goodness of our Daddy God, not on your circumstances.

Caleb said this to Joshua, reminding him of the promise of God delivered through Moses.

He had been holding on to the promises close to his heart all those years the Israelites wandered in the desert.

The journey that was supposed to take 20 days (160 hours from Egypt to Israel, about 500 miles), took 40 years.

Joshua and Caleb believed God when He told them they and their decendants would receive the land of Canaan that they spied.

When the other Israelites were complaining and lost hope, he was probably meditating on those promises.

At 85 years old, Caleb remained as strong for war as he was when he was 40 (read Joshua 14).

He led his tribe to attack the hill country of Kiriath-arba, where the Anakims, who were the biggest giants, used to lived, and the Lord gave them victory.

What promises do you hold on today? Jesus is our guarantee that all the promises of God are yes and amen!

The Lord is my strength and my shield; My heart trusted in Him, and I am helped;

Therefore my heart greatly rejoices, And with my song I will praise Him.
Psalms 28:7

Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me! For my soul trusts in You; And in the shadow of Your wings I will make my refuge, Until these calamities have passed by.

Psalms 57:2‭-‬3

Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; Let Your glory be above all the earth.
Psalms 57:5

15/09/2022

He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.”

Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler And from the perilous pestilence.

He shall cover you with His feathers, And under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler.

You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, Nor of the arrow that flies by day, Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.

A thousand may fall at your side, And ten thousand at your right hand; But it shall not come near you. Only with your eyes shall you look, And see the reward of the wicked.

Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge, Even the Most High, your dwelling place,

No evil shall befall you, Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling;

For He shall give His angels charge over you, To keep you in all your ways. In their hands they shall bear you up, Lest you dash your foot against a stone.

You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra, The young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot.

“Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him on high, because he has known My name.

He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him.

With long life I will satisfy him, And show him My salvation.”
Psalms 91:1‭-‬16

Matthew 28:20

Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”
Heb 13:6

God is the same yesterday, today and forever. His love for you will never grow old - it'll never change.

Through the old and new testament we see God repeating this promise that He'll always be with us and He will help us.

Keep believing, your breakthrough is near!

And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work.

so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
Philippians 2:10

and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Philippians 2:11

The name of Jesus is above every lying symptom in your body, it is above every disease and sickness, above every broken relationship, above all power and principality, above every missed goal and opportunity, above every addiction, every regret, every pain and disappointment.

Jesus Christ came to give you an abundant life. God doesn't make mistakes. Wherever you are in life right now, He is more than able, and willing, to transform your life according to the plan that He has created for you.

Just call out to Him and worship Him!

How precious is your steadfast love, O God! The children of mankind take refuge in the shadow of your wings.

Psalm 36:8

17/07/2022

Behold, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are continually before me.
Isaiah 49:16

"Walls" refer to the walls of Jerusalem but it also signifies security, habitation, protection and possessions.

The chapter of Isaiah is not written just for the Israelites who were captive in Babylon.

It is the Lord's declaration of His love for you. It was a prophecy of Jesus' crucifixion on the cross.

Read the chapter for yourself - slowly. God chose you in your mother's womb, He knows you by name.

Despite your situation and your doubts, He will save you, He is with you, He will prosper you.

He even sent Jesus to save you on the cross to prove that He loves you.

Why did God chose you?

He says: “It is too light a thing that you should be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob and to bring back the preserved of Israel; I will make you as a light for the nations, that my salvation may reach to the end of the earth.”
Isaiah 49:6

Notice also there are no prerequisites written in the verses. It is freely given.

Believe and receive it in Jesus Mighty Name!

Proverbs 3:16

06/07/2022

Psalm 23 is one of the most quoted chapter in the Bible, especially when we are going through difficult, fearful or trying times.

Why does it comfort us so much?

The author, King David is described as "a man after God's own heart" (1Sam13:14).

One of the reasons is because he understood the grace and love of God.

Psalm 23 emphasises the faithfulness of God.

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
Psalm 23:1

He makes us lie down to rest and drink... He restores our souls when we are weary. He keeps us righteous.

He protects us.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
Psalm 23:4

He provides even in the face of our enemies

Notice that there are no conditions mentioned?

Only submission is required for all these blessings. That's the heart of the Lord!

04/07/2022

For to the one who has, more will be given, and he will have an abundance, but from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away.
Matthew 13:12

For the longest time I thought this verse referred to "gifts", "finances" or "wisdom".

I was wrong. It refers to the revelation of the word of God.

And he answered them, “To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given.
Matthew 13:11

The field is the world, and the good seed is the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one,
Matthew 13:38

May we receive the revelation of Jesus in His word every day in our lives to be a blessing to those around us!

26/06/2022

For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all.
Matthew 6:32

But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
Matthew 6:33

“Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
Matthew 6:34

24/06/2022

Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge, Even the Most High, your dwelling place,
Psalms 91:9

For He shall give His angels charge over you, To keep you in all your ways.
Psalms 91:11

You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra, The young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot.
Psalms 91:13

He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him.
Psalms 91:15

With long life I will satisfy him, And show him My salvation.”
Psalms 91:16

22/06/2022

“Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!”
Psalm 46:10

No matter what the storm, He is our rock, our refugee and our strength.

He is in charge and He will see us through. He will never be put to shame.

15/06/2022

I will be glad and exult in you; I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.
Psalm 9:2

The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.
Psalm 9:9

And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you.
Psalm 9:10

Be gracious to me, O Lord! See my affliction from those who hate me, O you who lift me up from the gates of death,
Psalm 9:13

that I may recount all your praises, that in the gates of the daughter of Zion I may rejoice in your salvation.
Psalm 9:14

10/06/2022

One can sense David's extreme grief in the first part of this psalm.

He was pleading with God to forgive him.

O Lord, rebuke me not in your anger, nor discipline me in your wrath.
Psalm 6:1

And asking for healing.

Be gracious to me, O Lord, for I am languishing; heal me, O Lord, for my bones are troubled.
Psalm 6:2

Perhaps he was harassed by his enemies.

Depart from me, all you workers of evil, for the Lord has heard the sound of my weeping.
Psalm 6:8

But it ends in faith with David proclaiming God's deliverance.

The Lord has heard my plea; the Lord accepts my prayer. All my enemies shall be ashamed and greatly troubled; they shall turn back and be put to shame in a moment.
Psalm 6:9‭-‬10

We can expect no less from our Daddy God who number our hairs and keeps track of our troubles.

You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle. Are they not in your book?
Psalm 56:8

07/06/2022

King David wrote this Psalm in old age, possibly when running from his son, Absalom.

He prayed to God that He'll not forsake him in his old age.

So even to old age and gray hairs, O God, do not forsake me, until I proclaim your might to another generation, your power to all those to come.
Psalm 71:18

This psalm is recorded in the Bible to tell us that our Daddy God does not forget His love for us, He does not abandon us even when we are running from our enemies.

In fact the Holy Spirit inspired the prophet Isaiah to pen a beautiful reply to this psalm in Isaiah:

Even to your old age I am he, and to gray hairs I will carry you. I have made, and I will bear; I will carry and will save.
Isaiah 46:4

Our Daddy God made us, he will bear, carry and save us from our biggest enemies.

Praise the Lord!

Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers;

but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night.

He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers.

Focus on His love and He'll strengthen you. He will finish what He has started, He will see you through and exalt you above your enemies so you'll be a testimony to His Goodness, Mercy and Love.

15/05/2022

Why is Gen 38 - the story of Judah inserted after telling us that Joseph was sold to Egypt in Gen 37 and only continuing his story in Gen 39?

The old testament is full of hidden images of Christ.

Gen 37 tells us that Judah married a Cannanite wife and had 3 sons - Er, Onan and Shelah.

Er married Tamah and died. According to their traditions, Judah gave Ornan to marry her.

When he too died, Judah refused to give Shelah, fearing that he might die too.

Tamah dressed as a temple pr******te and tricked Judah into sleeping with her and gave birth to Zerah and Perez.

Wait. What was Judah doing sleeping with a temple pr******te?

Apparently he just lost his wife not long ago but Tamah knew he was going to fall for her trap, which might mean it's not his first time doing that.

What's significant is this:
Judah, Tamah and Perez were chosen as ancestors of Jesus.

In fact they're only 4 women listed in Jesus' genealogy: Tamah, Rahab, Ruth and Bathsheba.

All of them are "undeserving".

Tamah - a Jew who pretended to be a temple pr******te, Rahab - a professional pr******te, Ruth - a Moabitess and Bathsheba an adultress.

There's also a hidden message here. What do we do when our awareness (Er) and strength(Ornan) have failed us and our petition(Shelah) is denied?

So she took off her widow’s garments (mourning clothes), covered herself with a veil and wrapped herself, and sat in an open place which was on the way to Timnah...
Gen 38:14

Metaphorically, she stopped mourning. She veiled herself (first mention of veil - Rebekah veiled herself when meeting Isaac - image of a bride), sat at Enaim on the road to Timnah.

Enaim means double spring fountain -
Hebrew root word Ayin - eyes, and Timnah- portion.

We should SIT with our AYIN on our PORTION in Christ, or sit where the word of God is preached.

Our promotion (Zerah - rising) is secured by a scarlet thread (Jesus' blood).

Our breakthrough (Perez) comes in His perfect time through Jesus Christ.

12/05/2022

On the day I called, you answered me; my strength of soul you increased.
Psalm 138:3

For though the Lord is high, he regards the lowly, but the haughty he knows from afar.
Psalm 138:6

Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life; you stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies, and your right hand delivers me.
Psalm 138:7

The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands.
Psalm 138:8
