IF GOD BE FOR ME WHO CAN BE AGAINST ME

Scripture Reading 
The Book of Ruth


Ruth was a stranger in a foreign land, she knew no one except her mother in law.  The God of heaven,creator of heaven and earth was new to her. Yet she believed that whatever she would face in Judah is far better than what Moab had to offer her.   Moab is her home country; she knew nothing else, yet she fund in Naomi a belief in a God that she could trust more than any gods that was in Moab.  Although Ruth did not know where she was going and what would happen to her she went hoping for the best.  Ruth allowed her faith to take her from the unknown to destiny.  She put aside all that she believed in, all that she was expecting out of life; she used the opportunity to start a new life and ran with God.  She did not think twice of letting go of the past, in order to embrace the future. 

Tonight Lord I ask you to give me the faith like Ruth, who pressed through every obstacle that was in her way to embrace her destiny.  I wonder what would happen if we just let go and trust God the way Ruth did.  She was an ordinary woman who was in extreme circumstances; a woman who had every right to give up on life, but instead of giving up she trusted that God would make a way for her.

Whatever the circumstance you cannot give up, you must press beyond the pain, press beyond the shame, the guilt, press beyond hopelessness, press beyond your expectations of life and hold on to the truth of God's words and embrace destiny.  There is only one way to survive in tough times, it’s to press beyond your pain.  In spite of all you face, your hopes and dreams that are yet to be realized you must press past your pain.  Engulf yourself with the presence of God; crave His presence more than anything else. Sing to the Lord at all times, let His praises continually be on your lips and meditate on His word in your heart.   The word of God is your weapon,and praise is your defence.  Nothing can overcome you when you are wrapped up and entangled in the presence of the Lord.  Seek the Lord while he may be found don't wait until there is a crisis in your life to praise Him.  Praise Him when you are happy, praise Him in the morning, praise Him during the day, praise Him during the night continue to praise the Lord and don't worry about anything. If you continue to praise the Lord you would be surprise to see how far the Lord takes you in little time.  God is in control.

 Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise Him, Praise Him at all times. Don't give up!

Meditate on Words that Bring Life.

H ow you think about life results in the quality of life you live. Your thoughts are important, so meditate on words that bring life. In spite of all the obstacles I have faced in my life, one of the things that have kept me going are these words the Lord spoke to me when I was much younger “you have creative power within you, and everything you touch will prosper.” These words have been my guide in my ups and downs. I held on to these words as truth and life. I believe everything God has spoken to me and I know His words will never return void. I choose to meditate on words which bring life.  As a Christian I choose to meditate on the words of God. I also listen to godly-men and woman who are leading successful lives based on biblical principles. I read books and listen to audio messages which fosters positive encouragements and personal developments. I also write my own affirmations and speak positive things over myself at times. Most times than o...

DON'T WAKE THE BEAST!

                My mom had a way of conveying here wisdom in such a way that would make you laugh and think at the same time.  When things weren't going well or she heard of a problem between two people she would often say; "When you find your head in a lion's mouth take your time and draw it out." What she meant was that a lion is a fierce beast, but when he is sleeping he is harmless as a dove. If you are having problem with someone don't get angry and stir anger in the person because you might not be able to escape the fierceness of his or her wrath. Next time you find yourself in a dispute with someone and feel the need to get angry, remember not to wake the beast. It is best to keep calm and walk away than to wake the lion within the person and get devoured.  Proverbs 15:1 - A soft answer turns away wrath, but harsh words stir up anger.

More Than Conquerors

Dear Friends,            It has been six long months since the last issue of  the Newsletter . I must say it has been a trying time, nevertheless, I will press on  in spite of the obstacles I am facing. Embracing your destiny is never an easy task. There are all kinds of obstacles that we must overcome; fear, doubt, self, people and devices of the enemy. One question we must ask ourselves, "What will it cost me if I don't embrace my destiny?” Too many times we     focus on how difficult it is and not the price we will pay if we don't. We must keep in mind that our destiny is not only for us but those who it will impact. Every day we fail to move one step closer to our destiny, that individual who we are to help spends another day in whatever circumstance he or she is in.   It is imperative for us to know in whom we believe if we are going to fulfill our destiny. We must know that nothing can...
