Today Reminder – 24 January 2014 (Day 18 – A New Horizon)



A reminder for today
How the king rejoices in your strength, O LORD! He shouts with joy because you give him victory. For you have given him his heart's desire; you have withheld nothing he requested.  (Psalm 21:1-2)

In every new horizon God wants to provide for us. He wants to reward His children and take care of us. The Lord will fill every need and withhold nothing - For you have given him his heart's desire; you have withheld nothing he requested.
What is your desires and needs my dear friend? What is it that you trust the Lord for? I have seen His hand at work so many times in my life providing for us when we needed His help. God will always do what is needed but we must also learn to be patient and to trust the Lord in the process. Sometimes we trust the Lord for change but it seems as if it will never happen. The Lord knows when it is the correct time and His time is always perfect.

I trust the Lord for so many things in my life and I know He will do it in His time on the right time. My greatest desire is to walk much closer to the Lord in the new horizon. I will seek Him more and more and therefore become less of me and more of Him.

My dear friend, the Lord will give you your hearts desires. Just make sure that your desires are in line with His will and desire what is needed not what is materialistic. Materialistic needs are selfish needs for self-idolising.  God will always provide in our humble needs but not in our worldly (materialistic/selfish) needs. Our desires set us apart from those who are lost and we desire what is needed to glorify the Lord.  Our desires are not selfish and self-glorifying but our needs and desires are there to show the Lord to the world. It is in trusting the Lord and finally receiving your need that you will get so much closer to Him. Oh how I long to see your face when God changes your life and provides when it seemed impossible.

For the king trusts in the LORD. The unfailing love of the Most High will keep him from stumbling. (Verse 7) Trust the Lord for your needs and desires and He will keep us from stumbling so that we will be different and  we will stand out. Each need that the Lord fills must bring glory to His name, so make sure that you honour God for His love and grace.

Rise up, O LORD, in all your power. With music and singing we celebrate your mighty acts. (Verse 13)

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...
