Just Stand

By

“Finally the seventh time, his servant told him, “I saw a little cloud about the size of a man’s hand rising from the sea.” Then Elijah shouted, “Hurry to Ahab and tell him, ‘Climb into your chariot and go back home. If you don’t hurry, the rain will stop you!”
1 Kings 18:44
I am able to live with the fact that I have tried something and it did not work than not try it and regret that if I had tried, maybe it would have worked. This is the mantra that I live by. Big deal if I tried and it did not work; I will just try another thing. But a lot of people are laden with regrets about the things they should have done but did not do. But that is going to change, in Jesus Name.

Sometimes we get to a place in life where it seems there is no break, no opening, or no opportunity. A place where it seems as though nothing is opening up. If you are in that category, the first thing you need to know is, just remain faithful and the opportunity will come. Just stand your ground, something always happens. Bernard Baruch says, “When business is good, people believe that it will always be good. When business is poor, people believe that it will always be poor. Neither is correct.”  So if you are worried about not having openings or opportunities, do not worry, your opportunity is here already, in Jesus name. Just stand your ground something always happens.

During the Second World War there was a lot of pressure on Winston Churchill to negotiate with the Germans. But he refused and chose to stand his ground. Everybody thought he was crazy. But he knew that the deciding factor of that war would be the Americans. And the United States of America said they were not going to participate in the war. But Churchill said something will happen and America will fight. And something happened, the Americans joined the war and in fact they determined the end of the war. They asked him afterwards how he knew the Americans were going to join because he was so resolute. And Winston Churchill said, “I have studied history and history shows that if you persist long enough, something always happens.” Do not give up - something is going to happen! It may look like everything is going to crash but just stand your ground; something is going to happen in your favour. And when it happens, exploit it!

Prayer: I decree that I will stand my ground in every season because Jesus is my unshakable foundation and things will play out in my favour, in Jesus Name

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 and

A NEW MONTH OF DIVINE ANNOUNCEMENT

By
But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John. Luke 1:13 The Bible is replete of records on how God announced some events before they finally happened. Because you made it into the new Month, God will specially announce you in Jesus name.  Whenever God want to do something unusual, He first of all announce it, for instance, when He wanted to delivered the children of Israelite from the hand of the philistine whom He has delivered them to, He sent an angel to break the new to the parent of the deliverer - Samson. Judges 13.  When God wanted to turn the hearts of men back to Himself, He sent angel Gabriel to announced the birth of John the Baptist to his father, Zacharias. Also when God was fully ready for the redemption of man, He first announced it to the one whose body His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ will pass through to the earth. Luke 1:26-38. That was their time b

A Hidden Treasure

By
The sower soweth the word. (Mark 4:14) Right now, at this very moment, you have hidden within you a treasure that can change the world. A treasure that can change a man's eternal destiny, that can take him to heaven and save him from hell. A treasure that can turn a person's poverty into prosperity, his sickness into health, his sorrow into joy. You have within you the all-powerful Word of God. Don't keep it to yourself. Plant it wherever you go! Sow it into the hearts of those you meet. Share it at every opportunity. "But I don't know how!" you may say. Then start learning. Let these three steps help guide the way. 1: Make a decision. Make up your mind and heart today that you are going to share the Word with others no matter what! Determine right now that it's the most important thing you'll ever do. Commit to it. Once you've done that, you'll find the rest is easy. 2: Prepare yourself. Spend time meditating in the Word each
