IDENTITY CRISIS!!!...BEWARE!

Wonderful afternoon i must say!...hope your week has been nothing less than great!
You know recently I've kinda discovered one thing that draws us farther away from our inheritance...

        IDENTITY CRISIS can be defined as " distress and disorientation (especially in adolescence) resulting from uncertainty about one's self, a result of conflicting internal and external experiences, pressures, and expectations and often producing acute anxiety. " You read through the scriptures and aren't you sometimes so amazed(if not everytime) at the truth the word contains.Last week while fellowshiping i told God something,I said i'm going to take the word just as it is. you know most times even though we think we believe, we try to modify what the word says because we're too scared to let our hearts believe something and then no change occurs. and you know that's why nothing ever works out, you cannnot just decide to believe something "halfly"- in order not to get dissapointed and then expect that thing to come through.

    A king cannot act like a slave and except people to treat him like a king, that's exactly what happens nowadays, we christian have lost our identity that we are the SONS OF THE MOST HIGH. in John 1:13 we understand that we're born not of the blood, nor of will of flesh, nor the will of man but WE ARE BORN OF GOD!...do you know what that means?...in rom. 8:37 we also understand that we are more than conquerors through Christ!...also in rom 8:32 we understand that we have the card to get all we want - the love of God. so why don't we SNAP OUT OF SELF-PITY and think like we ought to, speak like we ought to and act like we ought to!

      Imagine a scenario where you have to wear an identity card to enter a building and you really didn't mean to ,but you forgot to put it on that day....Well sorry, you'll just not be allowed to enter the building...and how painful that will be! Well, that's exactly what happens when we forget who we truly are, life plays games with you and there's nothing you can do about it.Someone once said "life doesn't give you what you wish for, but what you demand" ...but remember a slave can't demand for anything so GET YOUR IDENTITY RIGHT AND WALK AROUND KNOWING WHO YOU ARE AND NOTHING LESS!

God Bless

Just a little thought.....

I'm sure you've been having a great time so far in this wonderful year!
So you know I watched a movie yesterday and it really got me thinking and asking some questions.
why do humans even have feelings at all?
why do humans act on their feelings even when they don't want to?
why do humans say "i love you" all around and yet show little of it?
why do some people just derive joy from seeing other people suffer?
why do humans have to display a little act of madness when angry before realizing they should have acted better?
why do humans block out others when they feel cheated?
why do people keep all these hurt, pain, sadness inside and put up a "perfect" face on the outside?

You know sometimes you're forced to wonder why is there so much religion and yet so little love?
Every single day, People  are going far and far away from the true meaning of love, LOVE is now been defined by just some people's experiences, their feelings, and understanding gathered from books....and yet we still ask one another why there is no love....see, THERE CAN'T BE ANY GOD IF THERE'S NO GOD!...now don't tell me not to bring in any spiritual aspect into this because really that's the answer to all of these questions...GET TO KNOW GOD AND YOU GET TO KNOW LOVE!
I pray our understanding be enlightened.

God Bless.

you have his YES!!!

   
So you know i was just reading 2 cor.1from verse 17 to 22 and you see i like what paul said....
lemme tell you what i got from that simple passsage.
    Firstly,he said something he said "when i was planning,did I do it lightly?"...so I would like to ask a question now..IN YOUR PLAN FOR 2013 DID YOU DO IT LIGHTLY?
  secondly, he also said something that struck me, he said "did i plan according to the flesh that with me there should be YES, YES and NO , NO?"...you see from this verse we understand that planning good also involves not planning according to your strengths or what you think you can do (the flesh)...buh instead you plan according to his will...you see most times we auctually think we're not relying on our flesh to do the work, but beloved, it's a conciousness we have to move with, see this flesh can do NOTHING!...that's why Paul didn't even bother relying on it at all after all, it was that same flesh that the thorn got to and that explains that the flesh is LIMITLESS!
  Now, to the sweetest part, he said "For the son of God, Jesus Christ......WAS NOT yes and no, but in him was YES.For ALL the promises of God in him are yes, and in him Amen, to the glory of God through us...that means to say what?...that everything that God has promised you is certainly coming to pass no matter what or no matter how long because it's a YES!!!...and AMEN!!!
   So my friend, don't give up because in this year 2013, sudden changes will begin to spring forth from all sides that will cause your joy to be unending but WAIT!...ARE YOU READY?(did you plan well,lightly or not at all)...WHAT IS YOUR PLAN BASED ON?....WHAT DO YOU BELIEVE? (a yes, a yes or a no or a no?)

God Bless you!

ABUNDANT LIFE IS YOURS!

You know yesterday I heard a very tragic story, a girl, a student in my level in the university dead!...you might just be saying, so what?...so may people have died this year,but I kinda went into deep thought thinking, we were in the same school, entered school the same year, went for the same chapel services, went for classes we may have even met each other on different occasions but she's no more,....a life gone!..just like that! and it got me thinking...
     So a new year is about to begin tomorrow and I know most people would be saying "Thank you God, that i'm alive" but I want to ask you a question..ARE YOU REALLY ALIVE?...you waking up and going going about all life's activities,and doing nada...sorry doesn't qualify you to be a living being.
   See one thing I want you to understand is that your flesh is just a covering of your true self -your spirit.you want proof?...well when a person dies what happens?...don't you still get to see the body?!...but the difference is that body cannot talk, cannot move, cannot express what he's feeling,cannot be alive why?...because the body is empty! i.e DEAD
   You see Jesus came that we may have life, and not just life but LIFE IN ABUNDANCE!...if you live each day like every other normal person does without a purpose, without a reason to live ,sorry but you're not living life...you just a walking corpse...sorry but please think about it, if christ came for me to have life in abundance and I just feel wretched, I feel depressed, I just feel dead then AM I NOT JUST CHEATING MYSELF?
   I would like to encourage you beloved, this new year we're going into must not pass you by WITHOUT LIVING YOUR LIFE IN ABUNDANCE!!!....because why then did Christ come in the first place.Please before this year comes I want you to know that Jesus is not satisfied with your condition, he doesn't want you feeling that way ever again, he's really concerned about you and he's telling you this is not what I planned for you, this was not the picture I had of you before you were brought into this world,he's telling you GET RIGHT UP ON YOUR FEET AND START LIVING THAT LIFE I PLANNED FOR YOU.
    I pray you have a change of mindset now that you know he came for you to live in abundance. Happy new year and remember THIS YEAR IS CERTAINLY GOING TO BE AN ABUNDANT YEAR FOR YOU!

God Bless.

WHAT REALLY IS THIS CHRISTMAS ALL ABOUT?

It's that time of year again. December has come and with it all the joys of Christmas. But what is the real meaning of Christmas? Is it the gifts under the tree, the lights in the windows, the cards in the mail, turkey dinners with family and friends, snow in the yard, stockings hanging in the living room, and shouts of "Merry Christmas" to those who pass us in the streets? Is this really Christmas?
For many people, Christmas is a time of sorrow. They don't have the extra money to buy presents for their children, family, and friends. Many are saddened at Christmas time when they think of their loved ones who will not be able to come home for various reasons. Turkey dinners may be only a wish and not a reality for some.
Yet, Christmas can be a season of great joy. It is a time of God showing His great love for us. It can be a time of healing and renewed strength. You see, Christmas is when we celebrate the birth of the Christ child. God sent His Son, Jesus, into the world to be born. His birth brought great joy to the world. Shepherds, wise men, and angels all shared in the excitement of knowing about this great event. They knew this was no ordinary baby. The prophets had told of His coming hundreds of years before. The star stopped over Bethlehem just to mark the way for those who were looking for this special child

We can truly be happy at Christmas! No matter what may be happening, we can know that we are His children. We then become sons and daughters of God. Heaven will be our home one day.
Look at Christmas in a new way this year. This is the year to invite Jesus into your heart. You will then have a "Merry Christmas." The joy and peace you will receive will last all year as you look to God for all your needs to be met.
Jesus Is The Reason For The Season! Rejoice!

God Bless :)

HAVE YOU EATEN??? (part 1)

Hey!!!,,,how're we all doing ?..'m sure you're all great!
I would love to talk about something so simple yet we still find it so complex to do.You know how we all sing the song "read your bible,pray everyday,pray everyday, pray everyday (2x) if you want to grow! and oh! how I loved that song so much, just singing it made me real happy but then how many times did I really pick up my bible to read except during sunday school.Now you can say "that is allowed, you were small then" but then even now HOW MUCH QUALITY TIME DO WE GIVE TO THE WORD?
You know last week I was talking to God and i told him can't i jhus pray and sing praises and worship you?...and then for that moment I wondered if I don't read the word then how do I pray to God effectively cuz we all know he honors his word and then if I don't read the word how do I even know how to effectively worship , how do I know more about who I'm singing praises to?
   The thing is we always say "we're spirit beings" but do we really act like one, you wake up, go to work or class, go to library, go to class, go to eat but when you finally return to your room in your night you start explaining to God how tired you are ,say a 5mins prayer and expect him to understand cuz he's a loving father, but trust me that's not the way it works, cuz after 1 week maximum you just see that you're not yourself, you start feeling wrong somewhere even though you don't know what it is yet and GUESS WHAT?...that's cuz You haven't really been eating for the past few days and day to day your spirit keeps getting weak cuz there's really NO FOOD THAT YOU'VE FED IT!
In the next post, we'll get talking about the importance of this food!

God Bless
