Today Reminder – 07 July 2014 (Day 05 – War)



A reminder for today
For the glory of your name, O LORD, preserve my life. Because of your faithfulness, bring me out of this distress. (Psalm 143:11)

Captain’s log – Day 5

I walked up to the bridge with new heart. When I woke today I knew what was left for us to do. I knew that my strength and wisdom does not come from me but from a wonderful God that made me to glorify Him. I knew that the impossibilities in life are there to blind us into misery so that we are too afraid to take a leap of faith. I knew that just as we are unsure what to expect, the enemy on the other side was just as unsure, only I had one huge advantage – God is with me.

My words echoed as a stunned silence fell over the men. Their faces seemed a little pale for a moment as they calculated my words and thought at what I just said. Then it began. Softly from the back the men started to rise as they lifted their hands. The started to talk, but this time in a different and more livelier manner. They started to place their hands on each other as they prayed…

When the enemy looked out from their war ships they saw a small spec that grew as it got closer. They looked but had no fear for they knew we were on the other side. They ignored the spec and returned their focus to us as we started to mobilise. 

When they turned to look at the spec it was too late…

The tiny spec picked up speed as it passed one of the moons. The sudden boost in speed shot the meteor straight into the waiting fleet of the enemy and as they saw what had happened they had only enough time to hold on and wait for the impact. 

The meteor slammed into the enemy fleet destroying almost two thirds of their battle ships leaving us with a tremendous advantage. The battle that followed was short and without much resistance. 

God delivered them into our hands, because the battle is God’s battle. Trust in God my friend, trust in God.
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...
