You are a Standard Bearer

God created you to be a standard bearer whose life should have character, colour and flavour. You are a warrior and leader who must lead from the front. You are a person of calibre, high standing and favourable regard.

 

 I dare you to rise up to be counted amongst the elect.

 

 You were not created to lay low in defeat, disgrace or dishonour. You were not created to fly low with the chickens, below the level God created you to reach.  You are meant to soar like the eagle. You are not of inferior quality or character. Don’t let life sap your energy, strength or vigour.

 

You must rise up, climb high above the skies towards the heavens where you will be seen, heard and appreciated.

 

 

 

God’s Abundant Blessings

Wishing my readers a happy new year.

The Lord has promised to bless and multiply us and set His sanctuary in our midst forever. His blessing is generational and it does not cease with life’s setbacks. It is not limited to financial wealth, as it is all encompassing. God’s blessing makes you rich and does not add sorrow to your life. God has placed you on earth to be blessed and to be a blessing. He expects you to be an instrument and channel of His blessing so that He can establish His covenant of peace with you.

‘… What eye has not seen and ear has not heard and has not entered into the heart of man, [all that] God has prepared (made and keeps ready) for those who love Him [who hold Him in affectionate reverence, promptly obeying Him and gratefully recognizing the benefits He has bestowed] 1 Corinthians 2: 9 (AMP).

“However many blessings we expect from God, His infinite liberality will always exceed all our wishes and our thoughts.” -John Calvin

Endless Possibilities

This year will bring untold stories of people who rose from obscurity to the limelight.

On 20th January 2009, Barack Obama will be inaugurated as the 44th President of United States of America, but the 43rd man to hold the office, who would have believed this was possible a year ago.

The world will hear from you because God has bestowed upon you His blessings far beyond your imagination or your expectations. The world will also hear from you because God has birth inside of you endless possibilities. You must reach forth to the Heavens and take hold of your possessions

You must dream big, imagine big and attain big. All things are possible for those who believe in Christ Jesus. The fact that others have made it in your aspired field does not mean that there is no more room at the top for you. God has blessed you to be fruitful, to multiply, and to increase so do not take the back seat.

God has given you the strength to go all the way. Psalm 29:11 states that the Lord has given you an unyielding and impenetrable strength and that He has blessed you with peace. In your path to achieving endless possibilities receive God’s peace.

The world will wonder at all the miracles taking place in your life. Your generation shall praise God’s Name because of you and your achievements. You will impact your generation. God is taking you somewhere awesome, magnificent and glorious as such you must be prepared for the change that is coming your way.

When God says that He has given us the ability to do great exploits and all things are possible for those who believe, He means absolutely nothing is impossible in our lives; when God says ‘Yes’ to us who can say ‘No’ to us.

Your latter years will be greater than your former years. Although your beginning was small, yet your latter years will be so awesome there will be nothing to compare with them.

Providence

God will not abandon you to fate; your plans and intents may be in your heart but it is God who sanctions them all.

The Lord directs the steps of the righteous and He exercises Lordship over their spirit. God is never absent from your life. He will direct the outcome of your life so that you can get to your destination in life- that is if you allow Him in to do so.

Providence will speak out for you when occasion demands it. God works everything together for your good, He will cause you to get noticed and elevated despite the opposition of others.

Providence will prevent others from taking what belongs to you and stealing your limelight by giving you inner courage to stand up and be heard.

Travel The Path No One Has Tread

To be unique and different you must be willing to tread the path no one has dared travel before you. You must choose to either dive into the deep and catch the best school of fish or remain in the shallow water of life with the mediocre and catch the ordinary fish.

You have to separate yourself from others if you want to be known as the pearl out of the oyster that became the prized object which Kings, Queens and Nobility sought after.

Pearls come in a variety of colours, the most expensive is the natural pearl which took time to be formed just like you- the oyster chose to do the things that challenged it and thread the path no other fish dared to tread.

It is said that cultured pearls are generally less expensive because they aren't as rare as the natural pearl, don't' die a carbon copy, God intended you to be an original!

Aspire To Greater Heights

It is not wrong for you to want to aspire beyond your current station in life- whatever that may be!. You hold the wheel of fortune in your hands and only you can spin the wheel and throw the dice in your favour.

Some people were born into affluence but squandered their fortune away and failed to pass on their wealth to their next generation, others were born into obscurity but aspired to greater heights and left the the shores of life impacting their next generation!, whilst a third preferred to remain where they were believing in fate instead of faith.


I have learnt to aspire to greater heights because I know that I would have the opportunity of imparting my generation and leaving my mark on the shores of infinity!. it is only the short sighted who say we should remain where we are instead of aspiring for greater heights.

A Day Closer To Your Destination

The journey may be slow, the path may be narrow, the mountains high and the valley deep but I can see beyond the highest mountain to the level crossing of life now.

You may have backtracked some days, months or years and lost time in the process but know that it is only takes a twinkling of an eye for things to change and for you to be closer to your destination.

The same goes for those travellers (air, land and water) who may have planned their journey for years but find out that it takes only a second for them to leave their last abode and find themselves where they want to be.
