Checking into God's Presence... "Call unto me and l will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knoweth not." Jeremiah 33:3 What is the affliction the enemy is trying to bring into your life? What task at hand seems to overwhelm you? Today, I want to challenge you that you do not need to worry or fret if you regularly pray sincerely and fervently. But first, if there is any sin in your life, you must repent genuinely, worship God and ask the LORD to cleanse and create in you a clean heart. It is then that God can deliver and allow His glory to shine through you. You must always remember that Godly living includes living in peace and by worshipping God. Fearing God's name, upholding honesty and forgiveness are, among other things that one needs. Whoever cannot forgive lives in absolute darkness, Therefore, Christians must separate themselves from darkness due to lack of forgiveness. Prophet Isaiah admonishes that:-But there the glorious Lord will be unto us a place of broad rivers and streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby. For the Lord is our judge, the Lord is our lawgiver, the Lord is our king; he will save us. Thy tackling are loosed; they could not well strengthen their mast, they could not spread the sail: then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey. And the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity". Isaiah 33:21-24 According to God's pattern, we have a simple work if we can follow His blueprint; but why is it common to write everyone off, save for ourselves? We now have entirely only a case of man inhumanity to man, where dog eats dog and man eat man because of our inability to forgive. So sad that the much-acclaimed simple subject of eternity is lost into the abyss forever. Whereas Job 1: 20-22 sounded the warnings:" Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell upon the ground, and worshipped, And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord." Job 1:20. Listen to these; "You say, 'I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.' But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked." (Revelation 3:17) This New Year, the Lord says:-"I have caused thee to multiply as the bud of the field, and thou hast increased, and waxen great, and thou art come to excellent ornaments: thy breasts are fashioned, and thine hair is grown, whereas thou wast naked and bare". Ezekiel 16:7 Therefore, l say peace be unto you as we wake up to life to a brand new day in the Year 2021. May the blessing of God come upon us today and every day of our lives, as the Lord guides us through the journey of life. May the source of our blessings, joy and favour remain a mystery to our enemies, and every weapon fashioned against us shall not prosper. I also pray that the Almighty God will make us prosper in all endeavours, and we shall no longer be stranded in life, for it is well with us in the Mighty Name of Jesus. And for this New Year, may we become enriched by the grace of God as we claim and enjoy the above declarations in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen Http://testimony-times.blogspot.co.uk Just Checking into His Presence...
