Today Reminder - 08 November 2013 (Day 6 - A Life of Change)



A reminder for today
“O Lord, please hear my prayer! Listen to the prayers of those of us who delight in honouring you. Please grant me success today by making the king favourable to me. Put it into his heart to be kind to me." (Nehemiah 1:11)

Yet another week has come to an end and it was quite and an eventful one for us. How was your week my friend and how are you doing? I do hope that you are well and looking forward to a great weekend. Each day we travel on our journey through life with a number of things happening in that day. We always want everything to go right and we do not like problems and we are disgusted when things go wrong. 

Nehemiah writes that the Lord must listen to the prayers of those whom delight in honouring Him and then he asks that the Lord grants Him success. I think that we should take this as part of the things we need to focus on in our journey towards change. We must delight in honouring God with our lives and that will increase as we get closer to God and change to be more like Jesus. We must bring our challenges in our journey towards change to the Lord in prayer and ask Him for success in those matters.

My dear friend, as the weekend approaches let us continue to honour our God with our lives and let us ask Him for success in all aspects of our lives.

Dear Lord, please listen to the prayers of us who delight in honouring you. Give us the wisdom and strength to be successful in all the aspects of our lives as we strive to live a life of change in honouring you. Lord please grant us success and let our success be a light to those in darkness so that they too will find their way to you. Lord please hear our prayer and help us through all the things that lies ahead in our weekend. In Jesus name.

Have and awesome day dear friend of Jesus

Cheers

Just to remind you

When I say that 'I am a Christian', I am not shouting that 'I am clean living. I'm whispering 'I was lost, but now I'm found and forgiven.'  When I say 'I am a Christian', I don't speak of this with pride. I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.   When I say 'I am a Christian', I'm not trying to be strong. I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.  When I say 'I am a Christian', I'm not bragging of success. I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.  When I say 'I am a Christian', I'm not claiming to be perfect. My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it. When I say 'I am a Christian', I still feel the sting of pain. I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name. When I say 'I am a Christian', I'm not holier than you. I’m just a simple sinner who received God...

Today Reminder – 7 August 2014 (Day 5 – Return to Proverbs)

A reminder for today Honour the LORD with your wealth and with the best part of everything you produce. Then he will fill your barns with grain, and your vats will overflow with good wine. (Proverbs 3:9-10) When we realise that all we are and all that we are good at is a blessing from the Lord we soon see how we can honour Him with these wonderful talents. I give all the credit to the Lord for all that I accomplish and all that I do and I am humbled by the way He continues to give me wisdom in my work. The promise here is much greater than we realise. When we honour Him with all that we produce, He will fill our barns and let our vats overflow. This to me means that the more we honour Him in what we produce (do) the more He will bless what we do up to the extend where we will see His blessings and they will leave us completely overwhelmed. In the end all that we have comes from God and He will increase what we have when we seek Him above all and live to bring glory to Him. ...

Today Reminder (Boxes) – 9 November 2017

A reminder for today   I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End [the Eternal One]. (Revelation 22:13 ) When you are reading this, I will be well on my way to my parents. Today is their moving day and we are off to help. Now, when it comes to moving I am almost an expert. We moved a few times and I can tell you it was never fun. Even still today our furniture starts to shake when a truck drives by. Now moving is all about boxes. Your stuff goes into the box and then onto the truck and finally at the new destination the stuff comes out of the box. One thing I can tell you is that with every move our stuff got lesser and lesser, because I gave some away that I thought we do not need anymore. Some would think I just made it less and easier to move. I would argue the opposite, but surely everyone is entitled to their own opinion. When we look at life it is a bit like moving. You see we experience things in life and we box it. This c...
