Today Reminder – 24 March 2017


A reminder for today
I will thank the LORD because he is just; I will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High. (Psalm 7:17)

It is Friday and I want to do one of those jump in the air and sing with joy moves. It was a short week, but it was a tough one. I will have to come in to the office tomorrow to finish some of the work that this little week created. It is amazing how God is so constantly active in our lives and how He just comes in and calms the storm. I am thinking about Paul and how he faced truly hard challenges in his time. How he was always so motivated and focussed and how he just never gave up. Look at how he starts his letter to Timothy: This letter is from Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus, appointed by the command of God our Savior and Christ Jesus, who gives us hope. (1 Timothy 1)

What did Paul do when times were good - he worshipped God with a joyful heart. What did Paul do when times were hard – he worshipped God with a joyful heart.

So today we will give praises to God and worship Him. We will sing of His majesty and glorify His name. We will give thanks to the Lord for He is just and we will sing praise to His name. We will celebrate Him in all that we do and all that we are. 

There is nothing in this world that can ever bring us down, when we are anchored in Jesus Christ. I love what Jessica Drown wrote on her website. HOWEVER, guess what? There is GOOD news! The enemy never took me out once, didn’t even come close. Why? Because I’m anchored in Christ alone. The only one constant, never changing, expressing endless love, restoration, and comfort, is Jesus Christ as this I had received so many years earlier post salvation.

There is only one constant that we should hold on and that is Jesus Christ.

Lord, we give you our hearts and we give you our souls. Come and reign in our lives so that we will shine your light and break the grip of the enemy. Lead us away from temptation and guide us on journey. Help us as we wear your armour so that we can defeat the enemy. In Jesus name.

Have an 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...
