God does nothing without first speaking it

Isa 46:11: "Calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man that executeth my counsel from a far country: yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, I will also do it."

This passage illustrates that God speaks His plans into existence and fulfils them as He intends. He is all-powerful and can bring about His plans using any legitimate means. Whether through existing methods or by creating new ones, God can accomplish His purposes. While God may reveal some of His plans to us, we cannot predict how He intends to fulfil them unless He chooses to disclose that information. God is secretive by nature and is honoured by what He keeps hidden. He progressively reveals His plans to those who faithfully and diligently follow Him. As we faithfully follow God, we can discover the wisdom He has kept secret, which was planned for our glory. 

God's almighty nature enables Him to fulfil His plans without depending on His creations. When He reveals His plans to someone, it is because He desires to carry them out through that person, not relying on the strength of the individual. God supplies all the necessary resources—spiritual, material, financial, and people—to fulfil His plans. Therefore, as we walk with God by faith, we should not be afraid of how or where we will obtain what is needed to accomplish the work He has given us. The God who has called us is powerful enough to take care of all the needs of His work. 

God Himself will provide everything necessary to fulfil His purposes. We may not know where or from whom the provision to fulfil His vision is coming, but we must make sure to know God, who knows where He has kept them for us. When we build a close relationship with God, we will never be afraid of any situation we find ourselves in, whether in life or ministry. We will be able to answer anyone by faith with confidence that God will provide for our needs.

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...
