TESTING LOVE

TESTING LOVE

When God says, I’ve given you the power to bless and the power to curse, but don’t curse anyone unless I God command it so. When you get such a favor, consider it a test of love (1 Peter 4:8). Like going to the market you check each fruit before putting it in your basket, God test your love volume to see your level of usefulness. Listen, if even demons can be used to carry out judgments on the disobedient, wouldn’t you rather be a better person for God today? Even without having the power to curse it’s done heavily, fluently, effortlessly and ragingly, there’s no challenge in that. Real challenge begins when you come face to face with those who’ve bullied you, lashed out at you, chastised you, rebuked you even when you were not in the wrong, demanding your apology though you deserve theirs, while repeatedly crushing your spirit and laughing while they’re in the power to do all this as you are powerless. Know this, sometimes, there is also power in surrendering your right to their wrong. Sometimes, God plans it this way for as you’re exercising the right to love for God regardless of the situation, He’s using that foolish thing to confound that wise one. You don’t have to like these situations but you must always love the person’s soul unto God regardless of how ugly they may be acting toward you, That is Christlike. There may almost, always be a possibility that they’re being held bound by an evil that has tapped on their weakness long enough to find room to use them against you and the only way to free yourself from that is to truly love them for God, despite the crappy things they sent your way. Often, it’s about how much of Jesus in you are you willing to share with others for soul saving purposes. Sometimes, it’s about laying down your weapon in face of danger even if you know you may not come out unscathed, but believing God enough to pull you through despite the ridiculous position you find yourself in. At times, God is saying, Son, I’ve called you to go beyond the known, surpass the unknown to gain this one soul for me, I just want you to be willing only, then I’ll do the rest. I will show up. I am Your God. I have not brought you this far to leave you. I allow you to be in the face of danger to see your reaction, to see your faith activated, to test your love level, to show you the You that I already know but that you still must be introduced to. You’re a diamond in the rough. I’m digging through the rough to bring you out. I’ve done the majority of the digging already, what you’re feeling is but the turbulence of the aftereffects. But this part you must go through on your own in order to appreciate reaching your destination to gain your prize. Else all would’ve been too easy, lacking charm, and you wouldn’t honor it as much if you’ve not toiled for it. When God gives you the power to bless or curse, be very sure that He will send your way many whom you’ll feel deserve to be cursed. It’s up to you to uphold God’s expectancy of you and choose wisely to bless even a suppose cursed. Not all situations are like this, but to ignore this is to set yourself up for failure. O ransomed soul, God has shown you His grace on so many occasions so that you also would learn to pass on the lesson to those you deemed undeserving, it’s a test of your love for God in respect to life. Have you expanded your loving grace today? God is checking to see if you’ll do as the unforgiving servant who refused to pardon others even after his great debt was totally forgiven (Matthew 18:24-33). It’s easy to act irrationally even under the influence of love after receiving grace and forgiveness. But God is always there to remind His own. I have been gracious toward you even after you’ve scarred me, trampled over my love, ripped my heart to shreds, violated my trust, undermined my authority, mocked me, used deception and caused others to stray from me as a result of your foul actions. Though I’ve forgiven you despite your multitude of sins, you couldn’t find it within yourself to forgive another even on one account? What have you learned from the grace that I’ve shown you, O daughter in the Faith? You, Sons and Daughters must learn to love and forgive as God commands it, for this also is to be Christlike! Follow the golden example of His pure love and do likewise, Jesus taught you well! For in doing so, you would have upheld His teachings and made for Him disciples in the Faith. You would have helped to solidify another’s foundation in their Faith walk. Don’t you know Dear One, in steering one into righteous path, you also gain forgiveness over a multitude of sins? (James 5:20).
“Bless them that curse you, bless them and curse them not.” (Romans 12:14, Matthew 5:44)
My prayer for you is that you come to know God’s love on such a level that you love freely for God’s glory before journey’s end.
Jesus soon come, let’s ready our hearts!

PRAYER TO GOD CONT’D

7 dips/plunges
The Prophet Elisha told Naaman to go dip in the Jordan river seven times (2 Kings 5:1-19). He was reluctant, but it brought him healing when he did, WITHOUT A TOUCH. Obedience brings forth healing! Do you want to be healed? Accept, receive, and take your bitter truth medicines-JESUS HEALS! OBEDENCE IS WORTH MORE THAN THE SACRIFICE! (THOUGH SOMETIMES THEY WORK TOGETHER TO BRING ABOUT SWEET CHANGE, you must be willing to go through the process to reach the gain)! Oftentimes, the miracle happens while obeying, but our carnal eyes don’t pick up on the evidence until the full process is complete. (Like the 10 lepers when one of them realized healing had been settled, he returned to give thanks, Luke 17:11-19). It kind of make you wonder if the other 9 were blind or faithless to their healing or did they just take it lightly that they had been healed! Maybe, like many of us, they didn’t realize their healing had settled until years later, one day out of the blue they realized “oh hey look, I’m no longer suffering from this ailment. When did it stop hurting? I don’t even remember anymore!” It’s a sad thing to become so accustomed to one’s pain that even deliverance from it goes unnoticed because on the inside something died, we became numb to cope. Never let yourself become so dead or numb on the inside while trying to cope with anything. Always renounce, denounce what ails you even if it seems bigger than you, and feels like it’s swallowing you out of existence. Take a ridiculous leap of faith on God’s promise because you can’t go wrong in doing so. It beats ending up on the wrong side of living anyway! What you must do to be healed might sound ridiculous, and like Naaman, you might want to raise some questions that may sound logical to your situation, but GOD IS GREATER THAN ALL LOGIC. That thing stands in line to God’s will. So obey without understanding to reach the undeserved healing that you hunger for. He who has begun a great work in you is faithful and just to accomplish what He started. He has NOT brought you this far to abandon you. God in Jesus is the greatest fisher of men and when He cast His net over you whether it is to heal, save and correct you, He won’t miss; the Holy Spirit gives no chances, (Ezekiel 32:3). Now is the time to obey!!!

CLOSED CAPTION-NO OPTION

CLOSED CAPTION-NO OPTION
To you who is done with yourself, you’ve sinned. Who are you to be done with yourself when God Himself isn’t done with you yet? And He created you for His purpose and glory!
To you who refuses to forgive yourself? Who do you think you are to be holding God’s vessel captive when He Himself forgave you long ago? Are you bigger than God? Be careful how you treat God’s temple! He’s taking notes!
To you who doubt every Godly thought God has given you? How dare you to even consider these shortcomings when God Himself believe in you enough to trust you with His Truth?
Have you not yet learned that it was with you in mind that He sent the great flood, through Noah rebirth the world? Through Abraham gathered children of every race, nations, and tongue to give you heritage and roots? Through Moses He set for us laws and statutes for structured living? Through Jacob God found in Joseph a path to bring humanity salvation’s alliance in Christ!
Have you yet to realize that if your eternal enemy cannot find ways to condemn you in daily tactics that he’ll turn it inward to make you turn against yourself so he can say even you condemn yourself so that should be justification of any and all charges? You who didn’t create yourself and who can’t control a strand of hair growth, breath or heartbeat? You who knows when you were born but has no clue how long you’ll live or when your mandated expiration is at hand? You whom God has sealed for the day of redemption and must live it until His great plan over your life has fulfilled because His word will Not return to Him void until It has done what it was set out to do in full?
You need to understand this one thing! There are some things for you they are closed caption, no option! The limit has-been drawn for you clearly! Respect the boundary and Honor God in Self Dear Godly Vessel Favored to do God’s bidding!
At ease as you’re tending to self honorably soldier while you remain on guard in the battlefield! Message received? As you were Valiant Warrior! SALUTE!

LIVING LEGACY

LIVING LEGACY
Live such a legacy that when you leave this world even the non-believers in the Faith feels the shift, emptiness, void in the world and yearn to seek and connect with God on a deeper level. Your life would’ve held purpose in depth. Live as you want to be remembered and spoken of but make it all GODLY.

FAITH ACTIVATOR/AKTIVASYON FWA W

When have you ever heard of news on the streets that a certain case was too difficult for God to save, for Jesus to heal or for the Holy Spirit to reveal? God asks but a little faith from you the size of a mustard seed for Him to act in your behalf. All the hurdles you’ve overcome is proof of His might in your life. May God activate your faith!

Kilè w t janm tandé nouvèl gayé nan lari ke té gin yon ka ki t twò difisil pou Bondyé t sové, pou Jézu t géri, pou Sintéspri t révélé? Bondyé sèlman mandé yon ti lafwa gwosè yon grinn sénevé/moutad pou l aji an favè w. Tout inpas ou t pasé yo c prèv pouvwa L nan vi w. Ke Bondyé aktivé fwa w.

GOD’S PROMISE

GOD’S PROMISE
God’s promise is true and sure regardless of our circumstances. God gave Joseph prophetic dreams of what was to come and didn’t stop him from sharing these dreams with his family. God knows man’s heart and He knew that Joseph’s brothers would become jealous, envious and turn against him because of Joseph’s coming success, yet and still He didn’t keep the truth of that blessing from them. Instead, God used their negativity as fuels to pave the way for Joseph to attain that greatness God had planned for him. Like Daniel in the lion’s den, God didn’t prevent him from being thrown there. Like Schadrac, Meshac and Abed-Nego, God didn’t stop them from being thrown into the fiery furnace. Focus on God’s promises over your life and claim them, speak them over you and your loved ones often. Just as God did then for Joseph, Daniel, Schadrac, Meshac and Abed-Nego, may God use all negativity that enemies send your way  as a path paving your way in life to God’s greatness in Jesus name!

LIVING THE MIRACLE

RANDOM CONVERSING MOMENT

You know, there isn’t a “How to live your life as a miracle” book anywhere! (I believe the bible has an answer for whatever ails you, and the whole book serves its purpose)! If there was a book guide on living life as a miracle however, I think it would begin like this! “Live each day at a time, a step at a time, a breath at a time, a second at a time, trusting and relying on God ALL the time until there’s no more time!” Either way, living life as a miracle with 10% oxygen and blood flow to fuel the entire body can be very tiring! No one tells you this ahead of time! You just have to trust and believe in the miracle within!!!

In Your Faith, Humility Before Honor/Nan Lafwa w, Désann Ya Levé w

When you’ve fallen into doing logic with God, He hooks you in doing research. If God has sent you on research, depending on your level of insolence, arrogance, disbelief, you might never see clearly again. Each answer found brings you deeper to another question. No one can win over God in logic, everything created was made by His hands, His mouth, His knowledge, His capacity.
Lè w tonbé nan fè lojik ak Bondyé, li kolé w nan fè rechèch. Si c Bondyé ki voyé w fè rechèch, tou dépan de nivo insolans, awogans ak inkrédulité w la, ou ka pa janm réyusi wè klè ankò. Chak répons ou jwenn minninw pi fon nan yon lòt késyon. Pagin moun ki ka ginyin Bondyé nan lojik, tout sak kréyé t fèt ak min l, bouch li, konésans li, kapasité l.

When God sent Moses to tell pharaoh to let God’s people go so they can go offer sacrifice to God in the desert, pharaoh pushed his boldness further because he felt more than what he was. He hit his  chest too hard in boldness before God. The person that created the chest knows how to control what it contains. God knows how to crush the pride in young women, young men, adults and kids! There isn’t a person alive that’s older than God. God is adult in all dimensions. Whether He’s on earth or in heaven, under the earth, in the waters, in the abyss, in the depot where they keep the dead or in the firmaments, He’s still God and no one is stronger than Him. He is the Ancient of all the centuries and of time.
Lè Bondyé t voyé Moyiz al di Farawon pou kité pèp Bondyé alé pou yal fè sèvis pou Bondyé nan dézè a, Farawon t pousé radiyès li pi lwen paské li santi li c yon afè. Li frapé léstomak li twò fò Devan Bondyé. Moun ki fè léstomak la konn kontwòl tou sak anndan l. Bondyé konn krazé ògèy jèn fi, jèn gason, granmoun kou timoun! Pagin yon grinn moun ki égzisté ki pi gran ke Bondyé. Bondyé granmoun nan tout dimansyon yo. Kit li sou tè a, nan syèl la, anba tè a, nan dlo yo, nan abim yo, nan depo koté yo séré mò yo ou byin nan fimaman, li toujou rélé Bondyé, épi pagin moun ki pi fò pasé l. Li c Ansyin tout syèk é tout tan yo.

In all circumstances if you want God to lift you, you must agree to humble yourself first because God don’t want to use the proud to lead His people. David in the pasture agreed to humble himself before cutting Goliath’s head. The woman with the issue of blood agreed to humble herself amidst the crowd risking crawling on all fours to find healing in the hem of Jesus garment. Jaïrus  agreed to have people kicked out of their house/room so his daughter to be raised from the dead. The Sunamite woman agreed to cook her last flour for God’s prophet so that she would receive abundant blessings. The centurion agreed to believe that on Jesus’ word his servant would be healed and the news reached him the next day. The blind man agreed to go wash his eyes in the pool so he would see. The Canaan woman who had a possessed daughter didn’t flare up with pride when Jesus told her, “it isn’t right to take food away from the children and feed it to dogs.” But with much Humility she rather answered, “this is true My Lord, but even puppies get the crumbs that fall from their owner’s table.” And this is how Jesus told her because she has a lot of faith, let it be done for you as you believe it. This is how her daughter was healed. Nan tout sikonstans si w vlé Bondyé levé w c pou w dakò umilyé w anvan paské Bondyé pa vlé sèvi ak gwo kòlèt pou minnin pèp li. David nan paturaj la t dakò désann li anvan l t koupé tèt golyat. Fam pèt desan an t dakò bésé nan foul la riské ralé sou kat pat pou l t jwenn gérizon nan ke rad Jézu. Jayirus t dakò pou Jézu mété moun yo deyò nan Kay/chanm nan pou Pitit li a t ka levé nan lanmò. Fam sunamit la t dakò kwit ti rès farin nan pou pwofèt Bondyé pou l t resevwa bénédiksyon abondans lan. Santenyé a t dakò pou l t kwè ke sou pawòl Jézu sèlman sèvitè l la tap géri épi nouvèl la t rivé jwenn li nan demin. Nonm avèg la t dakò al lavé zyé l nan pisi-n nan pou l t ka wè. Fam kanaran ki t gin Pitit li posédé a pat éstomaké lè Jézu t di l “sa pa bon pou wété manjé nan bouch timoun yo pou bay ti chin.” Min ak anpil umilité pito li t reponn, “c vré wi Mèt min ti chin ki anba tab Mèt li ka manjé ti kal ki tonbé atè yo.” É c konsa tou Jézu t di l paské li gin anpil konfyans, c pou tout bagay pasé pou li jan l vlé l la. C konsa Pitit li a t géri.

Until you find the response you’re waiting on from God, humble yourself lower still. One day just like today without notice, your faith in Jesus will lift you because you humbled yourself as opposed to flaring with pride.
Toutotan ou poko jwenn répons wap tann Nan min Bondyé a, désann ou pi ba toujou. Yon jou kou jodiya san ou pa atann, Lafwa w nan Jézu va levé w paské ou t umilyé w nan plas éstomaké.

DAILY PONDERINGS

You don’t know that you’re alive until you wake up from sleep!
You overlook how well your heart keep beat until it starts skipping them!
You breathe effortlessly until your lungs gives you reason to worry!
Do you catch your mind wandering away from focus or do you realize way later that you had wandered off?
Time is of the essence if you have things to look forward to, if not it just drifts and you rarely keep it.
Yesterday, today and tomorrow are days that we often speak of but what remains engraved in our memories are either of today or yesterday.
We can’t keep any tomorrow memories until it gets here hence we’re always looking forward to it but never catching up because it keeps becoming a yesterday or a today!
If you were to write your whole life story backwards you’d have to know the ending first to backtrack to birth.
We rejoice at birth and cry at death whereas some cry at birth and rejoice at death, would you call that a life cycle well balanced? Ponder it!
Have you ever conversed with self concerning your unruly behavior and disagreed with your logic, explanation or excuses?
If heaven was on earth and earth was in heaven would humankind have to flip upside down to seek repose or would we enjoy our heavenly earth so much that we wouldn’t strive for any better?
What if you wake up one day to find that every single gospel truth you denied was the Only Real Truth and now it’s too late and you’re caught in a trap of your own making for eternity?
What if your kids decided to disobey your truths and lived your lies?
What if you were forced to face your mistakes for life and death was a recurrence of the same because the only truth that saves is Jesus and you rejected Him hence rejecting His Father also!
What if holding on to God meant nothing to Him because you denied His Son your heart for soul-saving?
What if your logic isn’t golden in God’s book but His Word is bond to save your mind, body, soul, heart spirit, mind, life and eternity?
What if God is calling you to step out of the by-word that has labeled your race to stand for Him on a ground that’s not comfort zone?
If you were told that if you trust, believe and raised your hand to God in your scary darkness, He’s faithful and just to deliver you. Would you rather remain in your scary darkness trembling in fear?
…That point in time when your life has so much going on so to balance faith walk and sanity means to let go of foolishness. So anyone who entertain foolishness gets left behind because the weight of the soul is a pressing matter which shouldn’t be bargained with.
Loving people doesn’t mean to reject self, learn that early on in life!
Letting go of the crowd that distracts your focus on God doesn’t make you a bad person, just a person of character with set priorities! Whomever disagrees can welcome your absence!
Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever! That’s comfort that never changes! But even in this know that the door to grace will someday close. The elects in Christ will be gone and there will be no more time to ‘get it right’ before you come to Jesus the Savior! Don’t wait until He comes as King and Judge to decide dearest, it will be too late!
THE KING-JESUS IS COMING!

THE MOST MATTERED SHIP

God doesn’t desire to have a one night stand with you. His intentions are pure and Holy toward you always. He wants to spend all your lifetime and to enter His eternity with you even when you’re old and gray, holding hands as the first day you set eyes on each other and fell in love. That first love is what He seek in you through Jesus but for always! Do not abandon your First Love, of all the relationShips, this is the only Ship that Matters Most! Never set sail out of life without this treasured Ship as it is the most mattered!
