Today Reminder (Water) – 29 November 2018

A reminder for today
As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God. (Psalm 42:1)

Every day I battle with the voices in my mind telling me how bad I am and reminding me of the things I have done. I am confronted with guilt and accusations as the enemy keep fighting to break me. I am reminded that my finances are on thin ice and I am merely balancing everything at the moment. He keeps pushing and he keeps throwing these words in my direction. I stare at the mirror and for brief moments the person looking back is unfamiliar to me. 

I am fighting spiritual battles now more than ever before. The enemy is trying everything and throwing more and more accusations in my direction. The problem is that at this moment my soul seeks God and God alone. I am on a one way focused only on Jesus and the past and the accusations and the guilt has no effect on me anymore. 

As my body needs water, I need God and I am very aware of that. I wake up and the need of more of my God is there. In everything I do I am more and more aware of my need and my dependence on Him. I know my finances are in shambles, but I know He will not let me fall and He will show me a way to survive despite what the budget says.

I know my world collapsed and I am holding on every day as much as I can, but the thing is that I am holding on to God and He is holding me. I do not have to worry, because I am in His hands and I am a child of God.

He is my all and He is everywhere. I will face more challenges and the storms may increase, but my faith is also increasing, and this means that my battles are getting easier. 

So, today I remind you that we must seek God and desire more of Him. We must spend more time with Him and live every moment for Him. It is all about Him and all for Him. When I wake, and I go for my run I look up at the skies and I see His majesty. I see the works of His hands and I know that this God is the one who gave His life for me. Then I am renewed and filled with His Spirit and glory and I walk in His light. Nobody loves me like He does. He is my God, my king and my saviour. 

Have an awesome day dear friend of Jesus. 

Cheers

Today Reminder (Delight) – 28 November 2018


A reminder for today
Delight thyself also in the Lord: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. (Psalm 37:4)

It is a great day and we had very nice rain yesterday. I woke up with sound of rain on the roof and it was just awesome. You know we walk this journey and we encounter a number of burned bridges that we either crossed or need to cross. We see them, and we are troubled by it and it sometimes causes us to go of coarse a little. In the midst of what is probably one of the worst storms of my life I am so blessed by an awesome God. I sit here at work and I am just stunned at what He is doing in my life and how all seems to fall into place. 

You know I get to look back now at the things that happened in my life and I am without words when I see how God prepared me and prepared the world around me for what is to come. God is amazing, and His ways and timing is just perfect. I am so overwhelmed today by His grace and mercy.

This verse came today as a light to what is happening in my world. I delight myself in the Lord and I love Him with all my heart. I am nothing without Him and the mercies that He blesses me with. All the glory for all that is happening is for my God that is at work in my life and doing things that is above my comprehension. 

So, today I remind you to delight in the Lord. Delight means to have or take great pleasure; to be greatly pleased or rejoiced. I delight myself in the Lord for He is my God and I am no longer a slave of fear, I am a child of God. I will walk this journey fearless and courageous and I will trust in the Lord and He will free me from my past and bring me into His light with every step I take. My God will preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

Have an awesome day dear friend of Jesus. 

Cheers

Today Reminder (Call) – 27 November 2018


A reminder for today
Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not. (Jeremiah 33:3)

You know my yesterday was terrible and it took the Holy Spirit most of the day to calm me. It is amazing to see how the Lord works with me in the past weeks. He will slowly change my mind and then begin to add positive scripture into my head. He will calm my spirit and rebuild my brokenness and finally He will remind me who He is and what He is doing. You see, I know God has great things planned for me, but I also know that I have to face these storms so that I can grow in my faith and get closer to God. The people that He brings into my life are specially chosen and each adds value or comfort into my journey. 

This morning I woke up and my mind was clear and focussed. I had a great run and I look forward to a hard workout later. This verse just pulled me back into fight mode and ready for the enemy as he continues to attack me. God says that we should call unto Him. In this call He will answer and when He does, He will show you great and mighty things. He will change your life and if you wonder about that I should be a very good example. 

You see, God has done so much in the last few weeks in my life and how He comforts me and rebuilds me when I am down. How He picks me up and strengthens me when I am so broken and how He just stands by me every step of the way plus He blesses me so abundantly. I am so grateful, and I am without words when I look at His grace and mercies over my life.

So, today I want you to come with me as we call upon the Lord and just open our hearts and minds for Him so that He can guide us and lead us on this path we are one. For some it might be an existing path and for other like myself it is a new chapter of an entire new journey, but the fact remains that God is with us and we will see great and might things.

Have an awesome day dear friend of Jesus. 

Cheers
