Think & Thank

By

 “Seven times every day I praise You because of Your right rulings. Those who love Your law have an abundance of peace, and nothing along their paths can cause them to stumble” Ps. 119:164-165 [Voice]

God’s instruction for us in this season is Re-Tune. We have seen some of the things that detune us. And we have learnt that the desired frequency, the pitch perfect tune is joy. This joy comes with righteousness and peace. So how do those of us that are out of tune re-tune? And how do those of us that have never been tuned get in-tune? Three things;

The first thing is Gratitude. Find something to be grateful for. As the days in the year roll by very quickly, take some time out to just reflect. I know the enemy will try to get you to be ungrateful by putting in front of you the things that have and have not happened to you. The enemy is going to try to stir your focus to problems and the area you are struggling in. Know before hand that it is all in an attempt to detune you. Instead, think about what God has done and praise God. You have a roof over your head [I hope]. At least you have clothes on your back. Your soul gets tuned when it is filled with gratitude. Gratitude helps us find our desired frequency and our proper pitch.

The second thing is Solitude. Every new day, find a place of solitude. Where it will be only you and God. Just create time to be alone with God. Find time! Even Jesus needed time to be alone with God to retune. “And when He had sent the multitudes away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. Now when evening came, He was alone there” Matt.14:23 [emphasis added]. Jesus had time to be alone with God and He is God. You need time to be alone with God. God wants to talk to you. God wants to realign you. God wants to correct your course. God wants to set your days in order this year.

Jesus needed time alone to pray, to meditate and to reflect. Many times we do not learn because we do not reflect. I read somewhere that one-day when Bill Gates was still young, his mother was looking for him all over the house and finally found him in a closet all by himself. She was alarmed and asked him what he was doing in the closet all by himself. And he replied, “I am thinking, don’t you think”? The point is, you need to cut out time to be alone with God; schedule it if you have to.

Prayer [song]: When I think of the goodness of Jesus and all He has done for me, my very soul shall shout, Halleluiah! Praise God for saving me. Amen!

GFH.

His Channels

By
Rom.1:20 For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God [with emphasis]. So far we have examined three channels God uses to speak to us. If you are not reading your Bible consistently, if you are not listening to messages over and over again, and if you are not accountable to other believers, you do not have believers that are speaking into your life, you have already missed three main channels God speaks through. Channel #4: God speaks to us through His Creation. Ps.19:1 The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship. 2 Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known. 3 They speak without a sound or word; their voice is never heard. 4 Yet their message has gone throughout the earth, and their words to all the world [with emphasis]. God’s cre...

THEME: You Can Create Whatever You Desire John 16:21-27 The instrument with which you exercise dominion over creation is your mouth.You can create whatsoever you desire by speaking that thing into existence.Whatever you say begins to exist in the spiritual form.Jesus said in John 6:63,"The words that I speak unto you,they are spirit,and they are life". In like manner,you create whatever you say and the things begin to exist in the spiritual form.What you create through words also have life and they continue to live until they find physical expression.  This is exactly what happens when you pray.The things you declare in prayer come alive and begin to exist in their spiritual form.They remain in that spiritual form until they are converted to their tangible equivalent through work. Jesus said,"until now you have asked nothing in My name.Ask,and you will receive,that your joy may be full" (John 16:24). Don't make the mistake of relaxing after you have pray...

THEME: RETREAT TO REFRESH READ: Matt. 11:25-30 When some musicians want to release great songs, they retreat to secluded places where they can reflect, meditate and create. Some choose places overlooking the vast oceans, some choose where there are waterfalls, and some choose places with thick forestations.  As they observe the beauty of nature, the swift moves and songs of the soaring birds, the colourful flowering vegetations, the serene beaches and the unending waves of the nearby waters, they capture inspiration that helps them develop the hit songs they have been longing for. I met one of the world’s renowned musicians in Atlanta, USA a few years ago where journalist surrounded him and were asking what he had come to do and why his beards had grown so much. He said that his last album did not perform well enough and he was incubating another one he wanted to release that would perform better. He said that he needed to pull away from the Noise of New York and California ...
