And after the earthquake there was a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire there was the sound of a gentle whisper” 1 Kings 19:12

Elijah wanted to hear God but God was not in the wind, or in the earthquake, or in the fire. God was in the gentle whisper; the still small voice. Many times we are busy looking for the dramatic but God is saying I am here. And because God is simple, we walk past Him without even realizing it. And because God is simple, we get an instruction from God but we do not even know it. When Jesus came, He came in a manger and He is God. He was so simple they missed Him. The Bible says, He came to His own and His own did not receive Him. Why didn’t they receive Him? They were expecting a Messiah. If God that made the Heavens and the earth is so simple, why are we so complex? God says, if you want to be saved accept Jesus, repent of your sins, and the cross will avail for you.

A lot of the people I have spoken to are surprised that this is all they have to do to be saved. God has made it this simple because of you. If you want to be healed, the Word of God says you will lay hands on the sick and they will recover. Many people say, you mean I do not have to bring a goat, or a cow, or a turtle dove, or Tortoise? God is simple and He wants you and me to be simple. He wants you to cut off all the confusion. I challenge you to examine the different areas of your life and make up your mind to simplify your life. How do you simplify your life? I have learnt four ways from God’s Word and I will share these four ways with you.

#1. Think clearly. In order to simplify your life, you need to think clearly. I understand that you may be going through intense pressure but you just need to stop and think clearly. Unfortunately, not many people think clearly. Many times, we want people to think for us and we want things to just happen. But God wants us to think and He wants us to think clearly. Success is almost always the result of complete clarity. Think! Think through your business. Think through your relationship with your spouse and the challenges you are having. Think through your relationship with your child. Think and think clearly. It is good to have emotions but set it aside and use your brain. Think!

Prayer: Father, I thank You for how You have simplified access to You. Help me also achieve simplicity in my life and to think clearly, in Jesus Name.

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...

Sin Stained...or Blood Washed?

This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them; and their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.  (Hebrews 10:16-17) The Bible tells us that under Levitical law, an animal had to be offered every year to atone for the sins of the people. That word atone means "to cover" and it's used continually throughout the Old Testament. But let me tell you something exciting. It's never used in the New Testament. The Greek word used to describe what Jesus did for us on the cross is a different word altogether. It doesn't just mean "to cover"—it means "to remit; to do completely away with something." Do you know what that means? It means there is no longer a sin problem. Jesus solved it! When you made Him your Lord, He didn't just cover your sins, He put you into right-standing with God and re-created you by the Spirit of God a...

You Must Forgive Yourself Hebrews 12:1-11 You have heard quite a lot about forgiving those that have offended you – and that you must do. It happens often that the person you must really forgive is yourself. You may have committed an offence or a sin and your conscience has condemned you, just as the Holy Spirit has chastised you. You may also have repented of this sin, confessed it to God and resolved not to go back that way. But you discover that the heaviness, clouded vision, and the erosion of confidence occasioned by the sin you committed continue to weigh you down. At such moments, you need to make another type of confession to God in order to regain your liberty from the weight that holds you down. You have to confess your unbelief in His word that says, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9). When you have genuinely repented of a sin and confessed it to God; and you have pleaded ...
