"It's Not Your Fault"

As he went along, he saw a man blind from birth. His disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?” “Neither this man nor his parents sinned,” said Jesus, “but this happened so that the works of God might be displayed in him. 

John 9:1‭-‬3 NIV 

It's not always about who messed up and caused a situation. 

No one is at fault or to blame, not your parents and ESPECIALLY NOT YOU!

It's not a curse, generational or otherwise. People are just too quick to judge a situation based on outside appearance, based on how it looks to them.

But in this case, they would be  judging God,  they would be critiquing God....Because He's the reason you are the way you are. Learn to be okay with that.

Learn to be okay with you in spite of what others believe and are saying about you. There is no punishment being rendered, but you are just the way God wanted you to be, just the way He needed you to be.

He will get the glory out of your life. So, It's time, you really start believing you are fearfully and wonderfully made. Maybe, you are a little complex when it comes to certain things, but aren't we all?

Psalm 139:14 NIV, NLT

Beloved, Don't give up on yourself just because people can't see the glory in your story.  They haven't  lived it, so how would they know?

Knowing involves accepting and it takes a mature person to stop trying to find a reason, find an explanation and just accept God's will.

Jesus, Himself struggled with accepting God's will in The Garden just prior to The Cross. 

So, How can you expect far LESSER humans to be any better?

Luke 22:39-44 NIV

Just  My Thoughts.

Embrace Who You Are.

Hope this encouraged you.

Until Next Sunday.

"Mirroring Jesus"

When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy. And when they had come into the house, they saw the young Child with Mary His mother, and fell down and worshiped Him. And when they had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh. 

Matthew 2:10‭-‬11 NKJ

When you have greatness on your life, wise man will find you, gifts will be given to you....Just don't lose sight of your purpose along the way.

The wise men brought gifts to Jesus because they knew who he was, even in that moment as a child...And there is somebody who knows exactly who you are, they can discern your difference.

It's your difference that will elevate you. Jesus wasn't  like any other child that had been born. NO OTHER CHILD born around the same time as Jesus had the same EXACT destiny as Jesus NOT even John The Baptist. Matthew 3 NIV

He prepared the way for Jesus, but then (sadly), he had to get out the way.

SOMEBODY: 

On this 1st day of The Christmas Week, You need to know that a way has been prepared for you and when it's time for you to arrive...All others will have to get out the way.

Not only will you encounter wise men, but the gift (what you're carrying) will position you before kings. Room has ALREADY been made for you.

Proverbs 18:16 NKJ

In the meantime, Celebrate Jesus' birth because had He NOT been born with such a high level of greatness attached to his name...Howelse would you be able to recognize the greatness that is in YOU?

He is your mirror...You were made in his image, in his likeness NOT The World's, NOT your mom or dad as great of a people, as they may be.

Genesis 1:26 NIV

Jesus Is Your Mirror!

Merry Christmas One & All! 🎁

Until Next Sunday.  🎊

12/18/21 "Honor A Child"

12/18/21

#Sponsorship Saturday:

On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. 

Matthew 2:11 NIV 

Jesus always being our example in EVERYTHING we do as Christians....

All Jesus wants you to do in honor of this season, in honor of his birth is bring a gift to a child.

Just like the wise men brought Him gifts....You are expected to follow this example and bring a child a gift.

Now, Jesus being Jesus didn't need the gifts (financially)....

But it was all about honoring his birth, showing honor to him for who he was then and is now.

If you would like to honor the birth of Jesus, honor the birth of a child....Why not sponsor a child in need?

There's a beautiful child out there in need of clothes, healthcare, clean water, education.

Some have been waiting for OVER a year to get a sponsor and receive the help they need.

You can help be that help for LESS than your current cell phone bill.

"Who Is Your Naomi?"

Now Elimelek, Naomi’s husband, died, and she was left with her two sons. They married Moabite women, one named Orpah and the other Ruth. After they had lived there about ten years, both Mahlon and Kilion also died....

Ruth 1:3‭-‬5 NIV 

The text implies that Ruth married one of Naomi's sons and after years of being together as husband  & wife, he died....

Therefore, Ruth would have been left a grieving widow with NO DIRECTION, not knowing what's next for her life, had she NOT decided to follow her mother-in-law to Bethlehem, and be obedient  to her advice, thereafter. 

Think about it:

It's because of Naomi that Ruth re-married and became a mother for the 1st time.

It's because of Naomi that Ruth ended up owning the field she once worked in.

Ruth 2:1-3, Ruth 3:1-13 NIV

Who is the Naomi in your life?

Who is it that cares enough about your life, about your success that they are willing to advise you, willing to give you the wisdom of their years?

SOMEBODY: You think your life will be better once you get some money or you will be successful once you get some money....

Well, How do you explain Solomon?

Solomon NEVER asked God for money...He asked for wisdom to lead his people and ended up with BOTH money & wisdom.

Seek wisdom.

Identify the Naomi in your life.

Cling to and obey their advice.

The bible says: The Lord was pleased that Solomon had asked for this. 

1 Kings 3:10 NIV

Seeking wisdom pleases God and he will add the increase to your life that's needed.

1 Kings 3:5-13 NIV

Until Next Sunday.

12/11/21 "Money Matters"

#Sponsorship Saturday:

In the parable of

#TheGoodSamaritian what stands out to me is HOW the Samaritian man cared for his badly injured neighbor...

He used EVERY resource he had to make sure this man was cared for EVEN in his absence.

The next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Look after him,’ he said, ‘and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.’

Luke 10:35 NIV 

I do believe that was an act of God and a pattern for ALL OF US to follow.

Beloved, God is trying to get you to use the resources you have to meet the need of someone else.

You see, Money (Denarii) is just not for spending & saving, but money is for saving someone else's life.

Think about it:

God saved our lives through what He gave NOT through what he kept....He gave His Son; Jesus became a seed sown so that we would NOT perish, but have eternal life.

John 3:16 NIV

So, Are you finally ready to imitate the Saviour, imitate Jesus, imitate that Good Samaritian?

Are you finally ready to stop what you're doing TODAY to assist a child, making sure he or she has all they need EVEN in your absence....

You need to know that child is well taken care of, EVEN in your absence. 

You need & want to make a lasting difference???

If so,  Be A Good Samaritian and aid a child in their fight against poverty one day at a time.

"What Are You Saying?"

On the eighth day, when it was time to circumcise the child, he was named Jesus, the name the angel had given him before he was conceived.

Luke 2:21 NIV

Sometimes we rush to call a person something they are not, we rush to a put a title on a relationship too soon.

Take advantage of time, give it time. You need time to think and to see how you really about the person, about that relationship BEFORE you publicly start acknowledging it as any one thing.

What's the rush?

What's in a name?

Everything actually....NOT only is it what that person will be called, it is what that person will be thought of from now on.

Every name carries a meaning that will be echoed, re-inforced into the atmosphere every time it's spoken. 

Some of you have no idea what you're speaking into the atmosphere every time you say that certain person's name or the name you have given them, and/ or the relationship. 

You just don't know what you are saying....

Remember, Death & Life is in the power of the tongue. So, Can you really afford to NOT know what you're saying, releasing into the atmosphere?

Proverbs 18:21 NKJ

Remember Also, That even though Jesus' name was to be Jesus BEFORE he was even 

conceived according to the angel...

STILL there was an 8 day waiting period, and His name didn't officially become Jesus UNTIL circumcision took place, until some cutting away of some things happened, NOT until the child was circumcised. 

Think about it:

What sacrifice has been made for you really to call that person "that"?

What sacrifice has been made for you to call that relationship specifically this or that?

It's deeper than how you feel about that person or what just feels right when you say it.

What are you saying?

Until  Next Sunday.

12/4/21 "Don't Get Cut'

12/4/21

#Sponsorship Saturday:

The ax is already at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.” “What should we do then?” the crowd asked. John answered, “Anyone who has two shirts should share with the one who has none, and anyone who has food should do the same.” 

Luke 3:9‭-‬11 NIV 

Simply put: The way to keep producing  good fruit, and increase in the Kingdom of God is to give.

You cannot be stingy or neglect a need when you have the resources to help and STILL EXPECT to prosper financially.

In fact, the bble says:

If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person? Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth. 

1 John 3:17‭-‬18 NIV 

God expects you to give...If you love God, give.

It must be more than just words when it comes to expressing the love of God that "supposedly " resides in you.

Give shirts to a child in need of decent clothes, give food to a child in need of food etc. by becoming a #WorldVision sponsor.

Beloved, You must give, if you want to keep the ax away from your tree, away from what you're trying to expand, grow....

If you don't want to feel the cut...#GIVE.

Giving comes with a promise attached to it...That's for those of you who enjoy a good deal.

Giving is the best deal you will find anywhere, because of what you get back in return.

Not ONLY are you blessing a child,  blessing a community who will be more than appreciate you for your willingness to give.

The bible says: 

If you give...

Give generously and generous gifts will be given back to you, shaken down to make room for more. Abundant gifts will pour out upon you with such an overflowing measure that it will run over the top! The measurement of your generosity becomes the measurement of your return.” 

Luke 6:38 TPT
