Today Reminder (Clean heart) – 19 July 2018


A reminder for today
Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities. Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit. Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee. (Psalm 51:9-13)

I should not complain. I am against injustice and I am against lies that the media and the ANC and the enemy continues to spread but I am extremely grateful for what the Lord is doing. People are uniting against the lies and the wrongs, but we still have a long way to go. Some days it just feels like we are fighting a lost battle and we have no control over what is coming. Fact is the end is near and the day of our Lord’s return is coming closer and closer. So, we should unite against the enemy, but we must not miss the task at hand. We should continue to spread the word of God and continue to tell people about Jesus and the life we have in Him.

Therefore, I pray this psalm today. Lord, please hide your face from my sins and block out my iniquities. Please create in me a clean heart and renew my spirit and a right manner so that the world will not affect me, and the lies will not alter my course. Point and guide me in the right direction and steer me clear of evil and pain and lust and desire. Make me content and fill my life with joy. Joy that is you and you alone and let me not be influenced by this world but let your Word be my influencing guide. Restore in me the joy of your salvation and renew my strength while you uphold me with your free spirit. Then guide me so that I can teach the lost and the hurt and sinners so that they will convert and return to you. Help me to be your disciple and your prophet so that I will live a life that mirrors you and transcends your love.  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...
