LORD, WHAT SHOULD I DO?

Happy New Year!

By now the sound of 'Fire crackers' would have reduced in your area as it has in mine. Everybody finally has to wake up to the reality of work; the holidays are over!

This is a new year, if anyone will get its full benefits, such a person must receive instructions from the Lord and follow it.

Instructions are the keys to the victory. Knowing the right thing to do and doing it correctly is the key to triumphant living.

At the wedding in Cana of Galilee, Mary told those men "Whatever He (Jesus) says you should do, do it."

Note two things before a miracle can happen from that encounter at the wedding:

1. There is an instruction that precedes whatever miracle you desire. At this wedding, it was simply "Fill the pots with water and then serve the people."

It looked like something ridiculous. It looked like it wasn't the answer but it was the solution they needed. Don't expect God's instructions to be reasonable; just wait on Him to hear Him.

2.There is an action that follows the instruction that will produce miracles. They did as Jesus said even though it wasn't reasonable and they got a miracle. Whatever He says, DO IT FAST!

So what is God saying? And what are you going to do about it?

IF WE MUST BOAST

If we must boast, let us boast of the mercies of the LORD. Two students attend lectures and put in the same level of preparation; one scores an “A” and the other a “C”. Many explanations can be available, but when we hold all other things constant, mercy is the difference between men. I have written an exam before where I prepared diligently but got into the exam hall and misinterpreted the questions, writing the exact opposite of what was expected. After the exam, I had only one prayer: God, have mercy! In Acts 13, Paul and some other prophets separated themselves to fast and pray. Mercy spoke, and Paul and Barnabas were called into a special assignment. Were they better or more diligent than the others who were not called into that particular assignment? I don’t think so. Apostle Paul later told us that everything he did was a result of the grace of God. God’s mercy and grace are what enable us to achieve any kind of result in life. Let’s be careful how we think. Let’s be careful how...

HOW MANY TIMES DO YOU COUNT MONEY?

Recently, I had to make a lot of cash lodgments at the bank, and I proceeded to arrange and count the notes. I counted the various currency notes like three times and sorted them accordingly. When I got to the bank, the teller went to work, and I wasn’t surprised that the count was perfectly correct. The confidence was because I had double-checked the notes; the margin for error was very slim. In our Christian walk, we mustn’t be overly bold about our right standing in Christ if we haven’t examined ourselves again and again. 2 Cor. 13:5b says, “Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves…” Test yourself! Are you standing, or are you just thinking that you are standing? When I counted the money the first time, I could have stopped, but I needed the certainty. I know that I am born again, but I need to examine my heart: is there something hidden there that shouldn’t be there? Once, I was speaking to a group of people, and the manner of my speech wasn’t in confo...

2025: A LANDMARK YEAR

Happy New Year! Welcome to a Landmark Year. By prophecy, by decree, and by the WORD OF GOD, this year is a landmark year. Get set to have landmark encounters with the LORD. There shall be landmark testimonies in our walk with the LORD and in the results that will show forth in our lives as a result of Christ in us. The promise of God is to reveal His mysteries to the world through us. We are engraced to carry hope, salvation, strength, and glory to the world. Colossians 1:27 says, " To them God willed to make known what are  the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles:  which is  Christ in you,  the hope of glory." This year, Christ will be revealed in us and shine to all the world.
