NOW AND FOREVER
God is still faithful, and he still doing it today!
Change will come to you and your family today! Claim it! 🙏
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! (2 Corinthians 5:17)
YOU ARE THE LIGHT
As what God always say, you are the light of this world, and you should not hide who you are in the Lord in front of people that doesn't believe in God.
A light shines the brightest in the darkest place. 🙏 Never forget to kindle your light, you never know when you will become a beacon of hope.
You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. (Matthew 5:14-16)
HARD WORK PAYS OFF
Having faith is great, but always remember God blesses effort and the energy that you put in the work that you are doing.
Don't just say it, but do it.
All hard work brings a profit, but mere talk leads only to poverty. (Proverbs 14:23)
GOD'S ECONOMY IS GREATER THAN THIS WORLD
Do not operate according to the economy of the world, but in the economy of the Lord. 🙏
Always remember that if you draw your life near to Jesus, you will never run out and dry out of supply.
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. NIV That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither-- whatever they do prospers. (Psalm 1:3 ESV)
NEVER BE AFRAID TO CRY OUT TO THE LORD
Even Jesus wept, so its okay to cry sometimes and not get hold of your heavy burdens.
Always remember, God allows us to be comforted by being confronted with his love.
In the days of his flesh, Jesus offered up prayers and supplications, with loud cries and tears, to him who was able to save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverence. Although he was a son, he learned obedience through what he suffered. And a being made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him. (Hebrews 5:7-9)
OTHER PEOPLE'S OPINION WON'T VALIDATE YOU
I often hear this from people, while it is not wrong being concern or thoughtful of what other people think about you.
It is also important to prioritize what God thinks about you and not the people around. As long as you know that you are doing the right thing and you do what God pleases, the right people will appreciate it and will acknowledge it.
Whether it would be your dreams, your studies, your work, your business, career, discipleship and relationship, as long as you glorify God with it, you have nothing to worry.
Never let other people dictate your life and distract you from the fact that God loves you and God wants you to live your life to the fullest according to his will.
It is dangerous to be concerned with what other people think of you, but if you trust the Lord, you are safe. (Proverbs 29:25)
BLESSED TO BLESS
Always remember, what you received from God might not be just for you.
Sometimes, God uses us to be a channel of blessing to other people.
Never regret giving or helping someone when they are in need or when you are promted to help, however you also have to listen to the Holy Spirit's conviction to know when, where and who to bless.
Generousity is God's character being showed off. 🙏
The one who blesses others is abundantly blessed; those who help others are helped. (Proverbs 11:25)
THIS IS THE TRUTH ABOUT YOU
When God forgives, he is faithful and will never take it back from you.
But it is you who always insist and keep sinning though you already know that God has already forgave you.
Always remember that God is always ready and willing to accept you despite your lapses and inequities. He is still a faithful father and always will be.
Take away the guilt, keep reaching out to God! 🙏
Come now, and let us reason together,” saith the Lord. “Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. (Isaiah 1:18 NIV)
GOD'S TIMING IS PERFECT, YOU WILL BECOME GREAT
Whatever you are dreaming of today, whatever it is that you are praying.
It may take longer than you've expected, but believe that it will happen according to your faith.
The smallest family will become a thousand people, and the tiniest group will become a mighty nation. At the right time, I, the LORD, will make it happen. (Isaiah 60:22 NLT)
TRUST HIS PROMISE
Sometimes we get frustrated when things don't go our way, or when our plans doesn't seem to work.
We think that there is something wrong in the way we are doing things and feel ineffective. But know that God sometimes uses our flaws and mistakes to make things right.
Because of focusing too much on the mistakes and unsuccessful plans, we fail to see what God is really doing and we can't even see that he is already doing something in our life.
Instead of focusing too much on these things, try to open up your eyes and see what miracles God is doing everyday in your life and that he is trying to align all your mistakes and unsuccessful events into his plans.
YOU JUST NEED TO TRUST HIM, BECAUSE IT IS HIM WHO PROMISE
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 12 Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. (Jeremiah 29:11 NIV)
USE WHAT YOU HAVE, YOU HAVE THE ABILITY TO PRODUCE WEALTH
Don't use what you don't have and don't compare what you have. Instead, be patient and make use of what God has given and entrusted to you.
Offer it to God and watch him do miracles through what is in your hands. 🙏
The LORD answered, “What's that in your hand?” “A walking stick,” Moses replied. “Throw it down!” the LORD commanded. So Moses threw the stick on the ground. It immediately turned into a snake, and Moses jumped back. (Exodus 4:2-9 CEV)
JESUS IS THE FIRST LEADER
Every leader should know that it's not just about gatherings and get together, but its also about winning and bringing people to the Lord.
If you truly love God, it will be evident and will make an impact to other people. And by that you can win them for Christ. 🙏
By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another. (John 13:35 ESV)
WAIT PATIENTLY
When God is making you wait, don't compromise and trust him.
Never compare your season to other people's season.
Don't be pressured by what is happening around you and with the people's success around you. Be grateful with their success and cheer for them! And know that your turn will come in God's due time. 🙏
Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way, over the man who carries out evil devices! Refrain from anger, and forsake wrath! Fret not yourself; it tends only to evil. For the evildoers shall be cut off, but those who wait for the Lord shall inherit the land. (Psalm 37:7-9)
HE CALLS YOU FRIEND
This is the reason why it hurts so much. Not because of all the energy and effort that you exerted, but because of all the emotions that you attach with the person that you are leading.
However, it is also important to remember that not because you've invested so much that you can direct and decide the life of the people who you are leading.
We all still have our free will that is given freely for us by God, it is the power to decide and to see what is right or wrong. Some may abuse it, and some may take it for granted.
Leaders are there to lead and set an example, not to demand.
I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master’s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. (John 15:15)
REACH OUT
While it is important to take care of ourselves, it is also important to check on people around you especially the people that you love.
God loves it when we care for one another--
Remember, the journey of life is not about solitary but community. It will be nice to know that you are never alone. So let someone know that you are thinking of them today and that you care for them. 🙏
Love one another. Just as I have loved you, you are also to love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another. John 13:34-35
TRUST IN THE LORD
Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and he will establish your plans. Proverbs 16:3
When you say God's grace, it is all about trusting God and step into the unknown. God knows what you need, dreamed and prayed for. For he is an attentive God--
God desires for you to be successful in everything you do, and he will make you successful if you put your heart in it. However, what matters is your heart on that success.
Have that humble heart and continue to trust in God. 🙏
BE FIRM IN THE FAITH, QUIT QUITTING
There may be times that you have quit or feel like quitting, just always remember that God poured out his life on the cross and never gave up on you.
And if indeed you have already experienced quitting, just know that you can comeback to God. He is willing and will accept you and will give you the courage to start over again.
The temptation to quit may be too overwhelming, but always remember that God endured everything for us to have the strength to go on.
Believe that you will make it! 🙏
Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. 1 Corinthians 9:24
I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you. (Genesis 12:3)
🙏🙏🙏
NEVER TAKE PRIDE WITH YOU
So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor. 1 Peter 5:6
Success is assured when you work under God's power! 🙏
When we live to please others and give in to peer pressure, we are not allowing God to be first in our lives. That's pride! God wants us to humble ourselves before Him and live fully for Him. Living for anything or any person other than God isn’t God’s best.
When you seek God and ask for help, that's the highest form of humility you could ever do.
Don't get caught up with friends and what others think of you. Friendships are fleeting, but a relationship with God is eternal. PURSUE God everyday! 🙏
COMMIT YOUR WORK TO THE LORD, AND YOUR PLANS WILL SUCCEED.
"I struggle to find the balance between contentment and mediocrity. To be mediocre to is be average, good enough to get by, but not exceptional."
--Do not mis-interpret contentment with mediocrity.
--Don't make the ministry as an excuse not to work hard and pursue God's given dream in you.
--Lastly, never make an excuse to work hard for a living.
And in fact, you do love all of God’s family throughout Macedonia. Yet we urge you, brothers and sisters, to do so more and more, 11 and to make it your ambition to lead a quiet life: You should mind your own business and work with your hands, just as we told you, 12 so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody. (1 Thessalonians 4:10-12)
YOU ARE NEVER DEFEATED
There's only one mistake that matters.. Giving up right before you succeed!
Remember, failure is just a part of the process and you will never get to what you want if you will not experience failure. So consider it as a fuel for you to move forward, because God is faithful that he will make you prosperous wherever you are. 🙏
They are like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season. Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in all they do.
Psalms 1:3 NLT
LIFE IS NOT A RACE
Sometimes its okay to take a break and ponder what God has been doing in the past years in your life. It may be just the start of the year but if you dont put a starting point this year by pausing, you will probably get nowhere.
Remember, its important to stop to look at the right direction in your journey. 🙏The vision is clearer when you move slower and sometimes take stop-overs.
For God does speak—now one way, now another— though no one perceives it. In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on people as they slumber in their beds, he may speak in their ears and terrify them with warnings, to turn them from wrongdoing and keep them from pride, to preserve them from the pit, their lives from perishing by the sword. (Job 33:14-18)
YOU WILL BE SUCCESSFUL
Whatever path you are taking in right now,
Always remember that you have limitless potential and limitless possibilities according to what God has implanted in you and his characteristics in You. For he said in his word "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. (Philippians 4:13)" and you know and need to believe that his word never fails and his word is true.
You can do all things! You can do it! Keep believing in yourself! 🙏
LOOK AT YOU
Don't lose yourself running after someone or something. Instead, find yourself more by letting go of these things and seeking more of God.
Remember, God don't want you to suffer and he wants you to live life to the fullest. 🙏
DON'T LOSE HOPE
If you woke up today, wondering what you should do or should you just let this day pass by without doing something significant. Always remember that God has instilled purpose from deep within you, and it is for you to discover. Believe that you will have it in God's perfect time. 🙏
This is how you should pray. 🙏
This unseen God have been working miracles in plain sight up until today. Continue to believe in miracles!
If you want to experience peace, be in His presence. 🙏
Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. (2 Corinthians 3:17)
Continue to seek God, continue to seek righteousness.
Pure heart, see God.
Have a blessed day!
He is calling you.
Never let other people invalidate your feelings, God puts emotion in us to feel the way he also feels for us. Its sometimes healthy to dwell in our emotions for a while. Always remember, everything happens for a reason.
