God reigns

I had a lot of work to do the other day,and did not have any time to waste.Doing a DIY (do it yourself) was used by God to teach me that He truly reigns in all our situation.
The bedroom cabinet that was to be fixed was not suppose to last the time it did. But as we were two people fixing it,we found out that interpreting the instruction manual was not so understandable as we thought it should be.The instuction was to be followed step by step, and the next level was not to be fixed unless the previous was corret.But somewhere along the fixing , we could not get it right because we had bypass maybe, a little screw, and we spent more time on that level than was necessary. Do you know what?We became very tired and worn out, just because we did not want to start all over to get it right. Eventually we came to the end of the wardrobe, and it sat down there, very beautiful.
At the end of the day,(like i would normally reflect) my mind went to the time we could not make any headway, and then we taught we should pack it up for another day.Is it not truly the way we want to abandon a lot of life issues that look as if they cannot be achieved? I also saw the way that our lack of patience and looking inward allow us to waiste precious time in this world trying to find our bearing. Let us go back to the owner's manual,the Bible and study it, to find out how He wants us not to go through the pain of life for too long.I also learnt that, there are a lot of little things that we over look in the affairs of life,that, will cause us not to reach our greatest potential.Time will be saved,most pain would be avoided,more would be achieve when we spend time enough to understand what God wants our lives to be like if time is spent in His manual. God reigns in that situation you are going through right now, all you need to do is to check out THE OWNER'S MANUAL.

The commandments,statuesand the judgements

The Bible is a beautiful palace,built up out of sixty-six blocks of marbles--its separate books. In the first chapter of Genesis we enter the vestibules,which is filled with the mighty acts of creation.

This gives access to the law courts, the five books of Moses. Passing through these we come to the picture gallery of the history books. Here we find hung upon the walls scenes of battlefields, representations of heroic deeds, and portraits of eminent men belonging to the early days of the world's history.

Beyond the picture gallery we find the philosopher's chamber, the Book of Job. Passing on we enter the music room,the Book of Psalms, where we listen to the grandest strains that ever fell on human ears. Then we come to the business office , the Book of Proverbs, where right in the center of the room stands facing us the motto; Righteousness exalts a nation ; but sin is a reproach to any people."

From the business office we pass into the chapel Ecclesiastes, or the preacher in his pulpit, and then into the conservatory, the Song of Solomon, with the rose of Sharon, the lily of the valley, and all manner of fine perfumes, fruits and flowers. Finally we reach the observatory, the prophets, with their telescopes fixed on near and distant stars, and all directed toward the bright and morning star that was soon to arise.

Crossing the court we come to the audience chamber of the King, the Gospels, where we find four lifelike portraits of the Apostles, and beyond that the correspondence room, the Epistles, where we see Paul and peter and James and Judas busy at their desks. If you would know what they are writing about, their Epistles are open for all to study.

Before leaving we stand for a moment in the outside gallery,the Revelation, where we look upon some striking pictures of the judgement to come and the glories to be revealed, concluding with an awe- inspiring picture of the throne room of the King. I

am encouraging you to give time to study the Bible and you will understand the time and season we are in. God bless you as you study.

WHAT IS A FRIEND?

A group of friends were gathered together for a time of social fellowship. The conversation drifted to the subject of friendship and an athlete said; "In my opinion, a friend is a balancing pole that enables us to walk the tightrope of life without falling." The physician said,"I believe a friend may be liken to a soft bandage and a soothing ointment for the cuts and bruises of life." To a botanist it seemed that " a friend is a vine that clings to us and hides the dispenses and rough places of life," to which a florist added;"yes, and the greater the ruin, the closer a friend clings." "A friend is a golden link in the chain of life," said a jeweler." A woman in mourning responded, "A friend is one who comes in when the whole world goes out." "The best friend of all," said a white-haired man of eighty, "is Jesus, who said, greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends,"
A friend is one who knows all about you and loves you all the same. You cannot buy a friend. They are God-given and their friendship lasts throughout life. If you have one today, thank God f0r him or her. And if you do not have a true friend like the different suggested meaning, i pray that God will make one available to you.We need a friend in this journey of life, that is if you already have Jesus as your personal friend. If you have not made Jesus your personal friend, you might get friends in this world who will not allow you to know Him.

Just believe

I love the Lord so much for His Divine intervention.When i confess to be a believer, and truly i do believe,but do we really know that sometimes we behave, act, and walk as if we do not truly believe Him and His promises?I found out that when the enemy hits us so badly and we go to God in prayer,He gives us direction to follow.But because we always need an instant answer to the situation, we start looking for ways that are not the believers ways to solve the problem.

Let me come out so that someone reading will understand because i know i am not alone in this. I have been going through challenges that i will say has persisted for years. I have prayed, fasted, praised and even ask for trusted believers to intercede on my behalf.I believe God has answered because if He did not, i should not be alive to write this. I have equally got His answers through dreams, vision, His words and preaching,but somehow i just tell myself that i can not take it any more.My heart will start drifting and planning how to remove the pain because it could be very painful, in the midst of this, God still shows up to say, He is there and that He has not forgotten nor forsaken me.We just have to keep believing,why? because He says so.

He works all out for our own good, it is not for less but for more. i want us to look back and see the way he delivered us from other situations we passed through. If He did it then,He is still the same God, He will definitely see us through this present challenge.Please let us always go back to him when we can not bear the pain of waiting, He is the balm of Gilead an d He is always ready to rub our pain with His balm.Just believe that He has promised to see you through it all. It will always work out His purpose and our own edification. Just know that it is well with you.

BELIEVE

why am i here?

This is a very big question.I have live long enough to answer this question for myself and sorry , not for you my dear reader. But i know one thing is certain, after reading,you will ask yourself the same question.you see, life is full of mystery and it keeps unfolding day by day as long as you remain on planet earth.When we wake up every morning,it is a new day for a new beginning.A new beginning because we have the opportunity to start anew, righting all the wrongs of yesterday, reflecting on yesterday gives you the power of not repeating those things that did not allow you to be happy, to repeat itself. And also wanting to stick to those that indeed caused joy.We should not indeed be dead to situation and circumstances in life, when we do this we keep going round and round in circle.I have done or have allowed myself to be cheated out of my purpose in life. Please i would not want you to repeat the same. Experience they say is the best teacher and if you are blessed to have people around you who you can trust to give you counsel, i think you should take hold of it and please do not abuse it.Life is worth living if we find direction.It saddens my heart to find a lot of young ones this days repeating most of the things that made the older ones regret and lament that if they had known better.Well my encouragement to you this day, is that, you look out for that person that you can respect enough to open up to and ask deep question that you do not understand about life.Well someone will say, i have the Word of God and my Pastor has been teaching a lot of stuff that has shown to me what my life is going to be.

I know all these too but let me tell you the storms of life will reveal to you that only you and your situation will stand in the mist of the storm and if you trust me enough to believe someone out there you trust, honestly he or she that has been there with experience of life will cheer you up through it.You will definitely pull through. I know someone right now is reading and saying i do not know who to go to, but pray and look and you will find someone God has positioned for you, they are there, we only need to come to that realisation. You are here for the purpose of fulfilling destiny and if you do not ask yourself our title question, you will allow yourself to drift off the purpose and plans for you life. Live life to the fullest because God has already made the provision.I pray that you will stat from today asking yourself the question and moving everyday towards you purpose. Have a blessed time

In it together

i want to thank all that make time out to read this inspirations, i know that when you say with me long enough you will find out that we are all in the race together. Please i too really need to get your comments.It is funny that a lot of us go through things in life that it seems that my is so weighty.I know from experience that all we go through in life always sort of shape us or mare us. i have come today to encourage you that you should never give up on your dreams, aspiration and vision. We all contend with dream killers all the time and at times you start feeling ,if you are really going through the right direction, don't worry.

All the pains you are going through concerning what you have set to achieves is only confirming to you that you are doing it right.We should have an understanding that we all go through stuff, but should never allow the stuff to go through us.Do not even think of yourself going through things more than others. If this is your case, you will have more to share for all your troubles.Life is so interesting that ,when the garden looks greener on the other end, we start feeling bad about our own garden not being the same. But let me share this with you, the grass across most times only looks that way because you are far from it, if you come a little closer, you find out the real situation.

All i am encouraging you today is that you should know for sure that you not alone in your situation
