Today Reminder - 26 December 2012 (Different)

A reminder for today

But my servant Caleb has a different attitude than the others have. He has remained loyal to me, so I will bring him into the land he explored. His descendants will possess their full share of that land. (Numbers 14:24)

Different, don’t you want to be different? Once again the Israelites have turned away from God and in this they angered God. So instead of entering the Promised Land, God punishes their faithlessness by letting them wonder in the wilderness for forty years. You see God wanted to destroy them there and then, but Moses interceded for them and pleaded with the Lord to spare them, yet the Lord was tired of their ways. God said that none of them will enter the Promised Land. Only their children will see it and with the exception of Caleb and Joshua who did not turn their backs against the Lord but remained faithful.

My dear friend, instead of fearing the giants and losing faith, Joshua and Caleb stood up and argued with the Israelite leaders. They were different. They did not follow the direction of those with little faith, but instead they knew who God is and trusted Him like they should, knowing God will come through for them as He promised.

God will not leave you or forget you. He is and will always deliver you from whatever it is you may face. Come with me today as we will be different and not follow the direction of the lost, but instead follow the direction of God. Let’s stand out and be different as we live our lives trusting our Lord with unbroken faith and diligence.

Have an awesome day, dear friend of Jesus.

Cheers

Today Reminder - 25 December 2012 (Merry Christmas)

A reminder for today

And the LORD said to Moses, "How long will these people treat me with contempt? Will they never believe me, even after all the miraculous signs I have done among them? (Numbers 14:11)

Merry Christmas!

Wow! It is Christmas. What a wonderful time in rejoicing the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ. What a wonderful gift from a loving Father to all His children all over the world. 

My dear friend, this is such a wonderful opportunity to show the world that our God lives and that He is the only living God. Through our lives and the wonderful gifts God has given us we can show Him to our neighbours. Let us celebrate Him in living a life that glorifies His name.

My prayer for you for today is that you will have a beautiful day filled with joy, love and peace and that the Lord will bless you and all your family through this wonderful time, in Jesus name.

Have an awesome day, dear friend of Jesus.

Cheers

Today Reminder - 24 December 2012 (Possible)

A reminder for today

They said to all the people of Israel, "The land we travelled through and explored is a wonderful land! And if the LORD is pleased with us, he will bring us safely into that land and give it to us. It is a rich land flowing with milk and honey. (Numbers 14:7-8)

If the Lord brings you to it, He will bring you through it.

Once again the people of Israel are forgetting who God really is. They stare blindly against the obstacles that lie ahead and already they made up their minds of what the outcome will be. Have you done that before? Have you come to place in your life where you thought that it would be imposable to continue, or maybe you are there now? 

God does not take us to places in our lives so that we can give up and go back. God takes us to these difficult paces so that He can take us through it for the glory of His name. When it seems impossible and we succeed, how much more will we realise it is by God’s grace that we succeeded and how much more will we give Him praise for this accomplishment.

My dear friend, God is with you and in this amazing time of the year He wishes to take you to places where it seems impossible to go so that you will know He is God and He is with you.

My prayer for you for today is that you will have a wonderful and a peaceful day filled with His presences as we prepare for Christmas and that you will not be afraid when things seem impossible, but that you would trust the Lord with all your heart, in Jesus name.

Have an awesome day, dear friend of Jesus.

Cheers

Today Reminder - 21 December 2012 (Humility)

A reminder for today

Now Moses was very humble—more humble than any other person on earth. (Numbers 12:3)

Humility:

I came across this interesting piece of history today and thought I share it with you. What is so interesting is that Aaron and Miriam criticized Moses and the Lord was very angry with them. He was so angry that He punished Miriam with leprosy. The Lord called them together and He said this to them:

And the LORD said to them, "Now listen to what I say: "If there were prophets among you,
I, the LORD, would reveal myself in visions. I would speak to them in dreams. But not with my servant Moses.
Of all my house, he is the one I trust. I speak to him face to face, clearly, and not in riddles! He sees the LORD as He is. So why were you not afraid to criticize my servant Moses?" (Numbers 11:6-8)

What I love about this is that the Lord says He speaks to Moses face to face and clearly and Moses sees the Lord as He is. Wow! Moses is set apart from the rest of all the prophets in the way that he spends his time with God. Moses is in such an important position yet he is the most humble person on earth. 

My dear friend, I believe that in humility we will see more of God than in any other place. I believe that in being humble we will see God as He is and that is the most important thing you can ever do. 

My prayer for you for today is that you will remain humble and spend more time with God so that you will be able to see Him as He is, in Jesus name.

Have an awesome day, dear friend of Jesus.

Cheers

Today Reminder - 20 December 2012 (Constant God)

A reminder for today

Then the LORD said to Moses, "Has my arm lost its power? Now you will see whether or not my word comes true!" (Numbers 11:23)

A constant God:

Once again the people of Israel were complaining to Moses and so Moses took their complaints to God. God promised Moses that He will give them meat for 5 days, but Moses questioned God in disbelief. He said that the troops alone is over 600 000, how would they all have meat to eat? 

So God said to Moses: "Has my arm lost its power? Now you will see whether or not my word comes true!"

My dear friend, God is asking us today "Has my arm lost its power? Now you will see whether or not my word comes true!" God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. If He said that He will look after His children, then He will. We are the ones that doubt God’s power, and we are the ones that complain to Him. God will deliver us from all that burdens us and He will lift us up and set us free. Don’t lose hope and don’t be despaired, God will come through for you. He has already done so much, why would He stop now.

My prayer for you for today is that you will remain faithful to the Lord. And that the Lord will hear your prayer and lift you up from wherever you are, to a place where He will be glorified in all that you do, in Jesus name.

Have an awesome day, dear friend of Jesus.

Cheers
