RE: DANCE IN THE STORM

DANCE IN THE STORM

I thank God for the times we are living in. Amazing times, challenging times and extremely testing times, but I now know it is possible to dance, sing and rejoice right in the storm, for God Almighty will not give us more than we can handle. He is too good to be wicked, too wonderful to be evil. He is the reason we are never consumed by the wiles of the wicked, even in the toughest and most difficult of terrains He is ever present at our side making sure we are kept safe and that we are protected and preserved.

Yes, it is possible to turn the heat on your situation and yet you refuse to be perturbed or depressed by simply turning the tables on your adversaries and difficulty. Instead of weeping, wailing and caving in, shake off from the dust, shake the beast into the fire and refuse to be broken down and overwhelmed by life’s perils. Rather laugh out real loud, sing, dance and rejoice for your maker is King, Lord and the Redeemer.

It really does not matter, what you are going through once it happens it is a ‘going through’ and not a ‘dying there’! This too will pass and you shall live to tell the beautiful story of how you overcame the storm, the siege and the troubles life throws your way.

You can dance and sing and rejoice in the storm. Let me give you five powerful reasons why you can dance in the storm.

1.         God is an ever present help in the time of need.

2.         Nothing was made to destroy or consume you, everything that comes your way was meant to strengthen you, and the stronger the challenger the greater your victory and power.

3.         God will not give you more than you can handle. Never!

4.         When you overcome every difficulty and challenge you come out shining, smiling and successful. You become a pillar and succour for the hurting and the challenged all around you.

5.         All things work together for good for those that love God, and that are called according to His purpose.

God Almighty is always concerned about the bigger picture. While we sometimes major on the minor and focus on the mundane, God is working at making you more than a conqueror by preparing you for the real big issue not the small irritations that we see as troubles, trials and temptations. Ask yourself this question and please answer truthfully, Has God Almighty in all your walk with Him ever failed you before? If your answer is no, never! Then chances remain that He will not fail you now and anytime else for that matter. So rest and learn all the lessons that you need to learn while going through the valley of Baca, because life is a school and the earlier we learn and move up the ladder, the better for everyone. The rest becomes history.

Relax and get ready for a new song, a new dance and a new victory because of a new season and a new faith.  Who is on the Lord’s side? As for me and my house we will serve the Lord. Only those that know their God shall be strong and do exploits in these seasons.

This is not the time to lose focus and lose path and purpose, this is the time to refocus,      re-strategize and reorganize for the days are evil. We must all arise and fan the fires of our faith to be able to withstand the heat the enemy is ready to unleash to the double minded and the feeble.  May we never lose our connection to God and may we always win in the battles of life!

Re: Surround Yourself with the right people to SUCCEED!

People can be our greatest assets and our greatest risk, this is the risk we must daily take. This is a quote from Victoria Praise Abraham's bestselling book titled, Hope on the go! Nothing could be more accurate in life.

On a personal level I have learnt that no man is an island and we all need people around us that believe in our dreams, hopes and aspirations. We need people who can help fuel and birth our dreams in our journey of life. There is no doubt that we will meet near devils whose main aim would be to kill and destroy our dreams, hopes and aspirations but in the course of life's journey too we will meet wonderful dream birthers. These are a group of amazing people who could be family members, friends or just associates who help us to reach our goals in life or simply help us to get our next levels in life. Such people surround us daily and it is our duty to identify such persons and cultivate their friendships.

I have experienced many wonderful relationships in life. Most of them have been exceptional and amazing in nature. They have been like angels sent to make my life beautiful, strong and enviable. This is not to say that i have not met some real bad persons too but the ratio of the amazing relationships certainly outweigh the very bad ones.

We meet new people daily. We must ensure that we are at our best so that these relationships can go to the next level. We must not set out to milk the other person when we meet new people. We should just be ourselves, be kind, affectionate and considerate and soon we will be reaping the benefits of a wonderful relationship.

Relationships can make or mar us. We must prayerfully choose our relationships whilst working very hard to nurture old ones. We must seek to love others as much as we too demand love and respect back. We must ensure that our relationships are built on love, respect and dignity. Nobody wants a perpetually needy relationship. We all desire strong, vibrant and positive relationships that help to make us all better persons.

Decide to reach out to your old friends and relationships while working on nurturing new ones and remember we must reap whatever we sow so let us be careful the kinds of relational seeds that we daily sow.

Relationships are vital, critical and important. They help us get from one level of life to another and most relationships are to make us better persons. We must strive to relate better daily and make our relationships super wonderful by our thoughts, acts, prayers and deposits. We must never be just takers but givers in this journey of exchange.

To excel, succeed, thrive and win in life you need to daily surround yourself with the right people by being the right person yourself.

RE: THERE IS A GOSHEN IN EGYPT!

There is a Goshen in Egypt!

There is a light in darkness.

There is an abundance in scarcity.

There is a power in hopelessness.

There is a prosperity in obscurity.

There is a pleasure in pain.

There is a life in death.

There is a joy in sorrow.

There is a peace in war.

There is a calm in turbulence.

Egypt represents a place marked for destruction yet in Egypt there was a Goshen. Goshen is a place where God’s presence is, it is a place where God’s protection is, it is a place where God’s peace and power is.

There are two things to do when you find yourself in darkness, scarcity, hopelessness, obscurity, pain, death, sorrow, war and turbulence. You must find God and bring God into your predicament. When God comes into the equation then we must speak forth what we want to see for life and death is in the power of the tongue.

You might presently find yourself in Egypt; your business is to create your Goshen within the Egypt of your life. 

You might presently be going through pain, death, darkness and turbulence presently but you can bring God into the situation and begin to speak forth order, peace, joy, light and power. God and what you speak forth has the power to change your present situations for the better.  

When next you are confronted with an Egypt situation and all you see around you is death and destruction realize that you can create your own Goshen in Egypt, a place where God is and where God rules and reigns and makes all the difference to our lives.

Always remember that there is a Goshen in your Egypt!
