For His Glory


“I was afraid I would lose your money, so I hid it in the earth. Look, here is your money back.” Matt.25:25

The fourth enemy of exploitation is Fear. Please read Matthew 25:14-20. The servant said, “I was afraid…” Fear is a major challenge for a lot of us. A lot of people would have gone very far in life but for fear. They are afraid to take a step or to exploit a situation. God will break the back of that fear in Jesus Name. But if you further examine what this same servant said, this servant that did not take full advantage and was not productive, he said, “Master, I knew you were a harsh man, harvesting crops you didn’t plant and gathering crops you didn’t cultivate”. In other words, he was saying his master is an exploitative person. The master said, “you know I operate the Principle of Exploitation, at least you should have put my money in the bank.”

God is saying to you and I - I expect you to be exploitative. I expect you to get maximum results from everything I have given you. I expect results! Immediately I learned that not exploiting your gifts, your talents, your resources, and your relationships to the glory of God can take you to hell. I know it is harsh but these words did not originate from me. It is in the Bible; Jesus said it. God is not interested in you returning to Him just what He gave you. God wants results. God wants it multiplied.

Note that the servant was not even apologizing to the master for losing the money. That would be a different thing. But he did nothing with the talents given to him. If you show up before God and say all I did is protect my gifts and my talents; I can give it back to you, Lord. God says I am not interested. I want results. Many destinies have been crippled by fear. I pray that yours will not be one of them, in Jesus Name.

God wants you to get rid of fear. Sometimes we think we cannot live without fear or that it is normal to live with fear. No, it is not normal. God has only one solution to fear [1 John 4:18], cast it out, banish fear totally. If you can deal with fear, you are almost unstoppable. Fear is one of the major things that keep people grounded. So people do not do the things they ought to do because of fear.

Prayer:  I decree in the Name of Jesus that I will not be grounded by fear. I totally banish fear from my life, in Jesus Name

Marriage Booster: Do You Still Love Her/Him ?

Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; Ephesians 5:25 KJV "This is what I love about you" In the beginning you love everything about him. You are captivated by his six pack, his spirit of adventure, and his lion’s heart. In the beginning you love everything about her. You go crazy with the swing of her hips, a wink or a chewy chocolate cake baked especially for you. One day you wake up. Daily routine has shattered your rose-tinted glasses. “His six pack is not so hot anymore, instead his joints creak with every move.” Or: “It would be better if she swung her hips into a gym one of these days.” You realize: “My partner has changed.” Fortunately! He isn’t standing still. The problem is not the change but rather, that you are a creature of habit. It is your task to rediscover your partner and to simultaneously not forget why you went up the aisle with sparkling eyes to marry your bride/groom. MARRIAGE BOOSTER Write d...

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 ...

Can you ruin your destiny?

God had something in mind when He created you, right? But what if you’ve screwed up? Dropped out? Quit before it was over? Maybe you decided to do your own thing, it didn’t work out, and now you’re just sucking air and hoping there’s still hope. Guess what? There is! For God’s gifts and his call can never be withdrawn. (Romans 11:29 NLT) You don’t even have to start over. Every single thing you failed at? God will use it. (Romans 8:28) Every shot you called that was way off? God will repurpose it. (Proverbs 19:21) Every weakness you thought you had to hide? God’s power will show through it. (2 Corinthians 12:9) God created you for good works. As soon as you quit the past and sell out for Jesus, those works will happen. (Ephesians 2:10) He’s establishing you, step by step. (Proverbs 16:9) God’s a good Father. He knows how to bring you back and take you further than you ever imagined. (Ephesians 3:20) Spend some time really reflecting on these truths. What do you secretly hope is p...
