YOUR CONFESSION SHOULD BE ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH

Luk 8:52-53: "And all wept, and bewailed her: but he said, Weep not; she is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn, knowing that she was dead."


Don't be troubled by anything, but always make positive confessions whenever anything goes contrary in your life, even if you are laughed at and scorned by people. Your faith is your life and your glorious destination, so don't worry about people's negative attitudes to your faith confession. Always confess forwardly according to what you are believing in God for and not according to the bad situation that you are going through. Don't become restless or give yourself sleepless nights on how to solve the matters that you aren't able to handle. There is no trouble that you are going through that is hidden from God. Before you enter into them God was aware of it and He had also made provisions long ago for them in Christ Jesus on how He will help you to solve them. No troubles that you are going through that will end in shame, death, loss, or destruction; but all shall be for the glory of God. John 11:4. You will stop worrying about anything if you have the mindset that whatever goes contrary in your life or the challenges that you are facing are all for the glory of God. So, don't imagine catastrophe to happen to you through the challenges you face, God is not planning evil for you at all. The thoughts of God for you are all good and not evil, and the thoughts of God should be your thoughts in any trouble you are going through. Every thought you imagined for yourself will end as your destination. If you think evil will happen to you that is what will eventually be; but if you think good concerning you, that is what will come through for you. Whatever challenges you face are just a delay, but not your destination. So don't make what is supposed to be a little delay to grow your faith deeper in God to become a destination for you through your fear and negative confession. Whatever delay you face in life is allowed by God to deepen your knowledge of God and His plan for your life. 


Just as darkness is a reason for the manifestation of light, so also a delay is a reason for the revelation and manifestation of the glory of God in your life. Every revelation of the glory of God in our spirit was meant to manifest through us, but we can delay or stop it from being manifested through our unbelieving and disobedience to God. What God is not revealing to you in your spirit, you cannot manifest outside. If you venture to do so, you will just be breathing out noise without a divine substance or a message from God. Some preaches without a definite message from God and they aren't making definite impacts in the body of Christ through their activities. They are preaching, but they are preaching nothing of eternal value; they are full of activities, but they are doing nothing. When there is no definite message from God, no definite impact will be made in the body of Christ. It is a message from God that makes room for impact to be made in the body. It is not enough to have platforms for expression, much more than that, we must possess a divine substance from God that will help to push forward what God is doing in the world. Some are called by God to be the builders of the body of Christ, some are called to train the body for the work of ministry, while some are called to expand the impacts of the body of Christ beyond boundaries into many nations of the world. These are apostolic fathers or those who carry the mantle of apostolic ministry. These are frontier apostles who take the gospel of Jesus Christ to different nations. Whatever you are in these categories above, God will give you a definitive message to make eternal impacts in the world.

Power of Persistence

Power of Persistence  And Gideon came to Jordan, and passed over, he, and the three hundred men that were with him, faint, yet pursuing them. Judges 8:4 Persistence is essential for pursuing a significant purpose and achieving a vision that seems beyond our strength. Despite their exhaustion, Gideon and his soldiers continued their pursuit of their enemies, demonstrating the power of a clear and compelling goal to inspire perseverance in fulfilling a dream. Persistence allows us to remain consistent and steadfast in our pursuits. Without a great vision, we may struggle to rise from complacency and actively seek God with the dedication needed for constant prayer, which builds a strong spirit, deepens our faith, enhances our understanding of the Word of God, and helps us grow in alignment with our vision.  God does not use casual seekers for the advancement of His kingdom; He relies on those who are consistent and committed. Persistence in prayer and faith is key to receiving an...

You are worthy O Lord..

You are worthy O Lord.. The twenty-four elders fall down before Him who sits on the throne and worship Him who lives forever and ever. They cast their crowns before the throne, saying, "You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory, honour, and power; for You have created all things, and for Your pleasure, they are and were created." — Revelation 4:10-11 Even with the privilege of sitting around God's throne, these elders demonstrate a deep sense of humility before Him. When the living creatures give glory, honour, and thanks to God, the elders do not remain seated, proud of their crowns. Instead, they rise from their seats and fall down before God. In worship, they lay their crowns at His feet, proclaiming that He alone is worthy of glory, honour, and power. The crowned elders understand that there is only one King, and that King is God, deserving of all glory despite the honour they have been given. Like these elders, we must not allow the privileges, gifts, bles...

The Word became Answer

Image
The Word became Answer RSV, John 1:14: "And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth; we have beheld his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father." The Word, or Logos, became human as God's response to our need for salvation, addressing all our spiritual needs and the limitations we face as humans. The written word, the scriptures, is also provided by God to meet our needs. However, many struggle to find answers to their challenges in the scriptures due to their lack of understanding of them. But those who genuinely seek truth from the scriptures and are willing to obey God's guidance will find that the scriptures are revealed to them, providing a word from God. Casual reading of the scriptures will not yield meaningful benefits. Our comprehension of the scriptures plays a significant role in how we apply them and the guidance we receive. Therefore, we must not only read the scriptures but also study them carefully to uncove...
