The Path of the Just

Proverbs 4:18 states, "But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day." This means that your journey with God is a progressive one, much like a shining light moving forward. God will continue to reveal the details of your mission to you until you have fully fulfilled what is inside it. You are a work in progress, and God is constantly refining and polishing you to bring forth your true potential.

The light of God's word in your heart is the tool by which He works on you daily. You must commit to studying the scriptures and draw closer to God through prayer. This will give you the advantage of understanding His will for your life and conforming to it.

When a work is in progress, it is not open to the public until it is finished or perfected. Similarly, until God removes the things that prevent His glory from shining forth in your life, He will not release you for His use. Do not think that God has forgotten you just because His calling upon your life has not yet come to fruition.

When God is still working on a person, He may cause people who were meant to support them to desert them. This is so that the person can fully concentrate on what God is doing in their life and not be distracted. When God has finished making you for His use, you will appear in glory and become an eternal excellence, a joy to many generations.

If it appears that God is delaying in using you, know that He is making you an instrument of His glory that will shine and be relevant for a long time. Do not compare yourself to others whom God has quickly released for use. God is spending more time on you because He has a greater purpose for your life.

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...
