Give me this mountain!

-

Now therefore give me this mountain, whereof the LORD spake in that day; for thou heardest in that day how the Anakims were there, and that the cities were great and fenced: if so be the LORD will be with me, then I shall be able to drive them out, as the LORD said.

Joshua 14:12 KJV


When God says a thing, He is faithful and able to do it but there are prerequisites for God to fulfill His side of the bargain. God gave Caleb inheritance because he wholly followed the Lord.


For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

Jeremiah 29:11 KJV


The product cannot survive out of the will of the manufacturer's agenda and plan. Therefore, we cannot survive, or thrive, out of God's plan. You are wonderfully and fearfully made by God and we have to be in line with God's agenda.


God is faithful to that which has been committed to Him. He cannot lie. We are to hold Him by His word. You must understand that if you don't know what God has said about you, you really can't possess it. It's like having a right that you do not even know about, how can you then protect and defend it?


Having a relationship with Jesus is of the essence. Somebody may plant, another person can water, but it's great to be the harvester. Contend for the faith that has been given unto you. To win such battles, you are to take it to God through scriptures. When you give your life to Jesus your life is turned to the original Adam —The Adam that had not sinned.

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV


I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours.

John 4:38 KJV

Promises have been made before we were born but the bane to the fulfillment of them is ignorance.

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

Hosea 4:6 KJV


The remedying factor is the Sword of the Spirit, the Word of God. We are to study and meditate daily on God's word.


So help us God.

A Life.

John 14:6 NIV [6] Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.  Life is defined as a worthwhile existence. A lot of people are alive but are not actually living. Are you really living? Is your life characterised by some daily routine: sleep, eat, greet and repeat? Hey friend, there's more to life! There's so much in store for you. Don't live a casual life to please someone or conform to a standard or to criteria that don't speak truth. Do you want to be true? God has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light to show forth His praises and to fulfill destiny. What does His word say? It says in 3 John:2 that He wishes above all things that you prosper and be in health even as your soul prospers. Also, Jeremiah 29:11 says that the thoughts God thinks about you are thoughts of peace and not evil, to give you an expected end. There is a void in everyone's life that can only be filled by Jesus. Jesus is t...

Patience (Not Ozokwor)

I’m going to be real with you, being patient is hard. Whether it’s waiting for a text back, sitting in Lagos traffic, dealing with slow internet speed, or wondering when life will finally make sense, patience is one of those things we all wish we had but don’t enjoy developing. And yet, it’s a Fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23). Meaning, it’s something God expects to grow in us, not something we magically wake up with. But how do you stay patient when everything around you screams, “Do it now! Get it now! Why are you waiting?!” Why Do We Even Need Patience? Patience isn’t just about sitting still and waiting, it’s about trusting God’s timing when things aren’t going our way. Think about Abraham. God promised him descendants as numerous as the stars (Genesis 15:5), but he had to wait 25 years before Isaac was born. David was anointed as king in his teenage years but didn’t take the throne until he was 30 (1 Samuel 16, 2 Samuel 5:4). Even Jesus, the Son of God, spent 30 years in pre...

God

Text: Genesis 1:1 KJV [1]In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. According to the text, God is the Creator. He made all things in a  perfect manner. He created humans in His own image. Everyone was made beautiful, irrespective of the world's standard of beauty. Psalms 139:14 [14]I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well. At times, we might feel that we weren't created to our taste. You know what I mean, some of the times, we wish we were taller, had a better body physique and all.  I just want you to know that God, the Greatest One, created you in the best way. Therefore, appreciate your beauty and love yourself. God is a good God that He created man in His own likeness, knowing fully well that He is the most beautiful One. Isn't that wonderful ? Henceforth, whenever we look at ourselves, let's appreciate God for who He is by admitting and confessing that He is our Creator. H...
