Repairer-Hope & Faith!
Amos 9:11“On that day I will raise up. The tabernacle of David, which has fallen down, And repair its damages; I will raise up its ruins, And rebuild it as in the days of old; 12 That they may possess the remnant of Edom, And all the Gentiles who are called by My name,” Says the Lord who does this thing. 13 “Behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord, “When the plowman shall overtake the reaper, And the treader of grapes him who sows seed; The mountains shall drip with sweet wine, And all the hills shall flow with it. 14 I will bring back the captives of My people Israel; They shall build the waste cities and inhabit them; They shall plant vineyards and drink wine from them; They shall also make gardens and eat fruit from them. 15 I will plant them in their land, And no longer shall they be pulled up From the land I have given them,” Says the Lord your God.
Friends, will you keep hope alive in your heart? The ruined places shall be restored. What has broken down shall be built up! What are those things that seem impossible, those things that caused you deep pains, regret, the Lord says today it shall bring you joy. For, He the Most High God shall restore the ruined cities. You shall yet rejoice for all that has caused you pain is been turned around to bring you joy.
The Lord is restoring your years like that of the eagles. Your days are been renewed, can you not see it, can you not feel it. Your bones are stronger than it was, your health restored, there is fresh oil on your head! Open your eyes and see, stretch your hands and touch, open your mouth and praise the Lord for the wondrous things He has done.
Faith friends, is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrew 11:1 Please take time out to study the whole chapter 11 of Hebrew to get a grip on seeing the provisions that is available for you. You have found favor of the Lord! Rejoice and be glad. Hold unto the promises of God for it shall come to pass.
Joel 2:“So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, the crawling locust, the consuming locust, and the chewing locust, my great army which I sent among you. 26 You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, and praise the name of the Lord your God, who has dealt wondrously with you; and My people shall never be put to shame. 27 Then you shall know that I am in the midst of Israel: I am the Lord your God, and there is no other. My people shall never be put to shame.
Rejoice and be glad, praise the Lord with a dance, magnify His name, declare His majesty. He is faithful that promised, friends, hold unto your confession of faith for it shall manifest, you will see, hold, touch, and partake in the goodness of God in this wondrous season.
Shalom

Many Women Ministered To Jesus!
Luke 8 Now it came to pass, afterward, that He went through every city and village, preaching and bringing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God. And the twelve were with Him, 2 and certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities—Mary called Magdalene, out of whom had come seven demons, 3 and Joanna the wife of Chuza, Herod’s steward, and Susanna, and many others who provided for Him from their substance.
Friends, from this we can deduce that women were a part of Jesus’s ministry. We might not have been one of the twelve, but we did played apart in His ministry. So now Sisters, what role are we playing in this season of the Church of the Living God? We were saved to serve Jesus? Heaven is waiting for us to look beyond our own pain to touch others positively for the Kingdom’s sake. Will you let Jesus touch another through your hands?
How are we supporting the ministry God left behind friends? We have been delivered from shame, reproach, sickness, heartaches, failure – career, business, relationship and so on! Oh, Well, some of us still has some outstanding issues, but we know God has got our back, right? Yes He has! What are we going to do with all the wealth of experience we have garnered along the way? We have been given much, are we giving back?
Oh yes, we support our husbands, children and friends here and there! Really? In your sphere of influence are you living as a good example of Christ redeemed? Verse 3b says ” and many others who provided for Him from their substance” NIV version says “These women were helping to support them out of their own means” What substance do we have? What are we giving to His body?
These women cared for the Lord Jesus! Are we caring for Him now? How are we treating the less “fortunate” in our midst? Bringing it home, how about our own children? Are we being a good example? Children learn more from observing us than what we say. They hear us when we call up sister B to gossip about sister A, they are aware of our action when we see sister A. They see through our deceit! We are custodian of God’s heritage and should pay attention to who we are and what the Lord expect of us.
Some of Us have opportunity to influence a host of others in line with the scriptures but rather, we are the one sowing seed of discourse. We are the custodian of evil seed! This should not be so friends, let us come together as women to build together, not tear down. We spread lies here and there, sow corrupt seed here and there, to pull down when we should be encouraging ourselves to seek for more of God.
This is the end time friends and I am imploring all my sisters out there to please go into our closet and seek the face of God for His Church. Yes, His Church, starting from yourself, myself, family, family of believers, local assembly and so on. We do have a part to play in the agenda of heaven. We are Female – Woman! Whatever that means to you, I know that incredible grace has been bestowed upon us! We go through stuff that will break many a man, but we remain strong through it all loving and caring for our immediate family and more.
Please let us reach into that reservoir of grace and love and help to showcase Jesus Christ for the world to see. The Holy Spirit is a spirit of unity, it binds together, it comforts, guide, guards and friendly. Yes! Are We? We have Him in Us as the redeemed of the Lord, let us give Him a chance to work in us so we can express Jesus in spirit and in truth. The World is watching us.
Lord I pray in Jesus mighty name that He would grant you and I, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, 17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts and mine through faith; that you and I, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height— 19 to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you and I may be filled with all the fullness of God. Ephesians 3:16-19
Love you all and do have a wonderful weekend!!
Kiss! kiss!
Shalom!
My Heart Is Set On High!
Hear this Satan, listen and take note!
You demons sowing seeds of destruction
Back off In Jesus name!
I plead the blood of Jesus against you
Satan and all demons I overcome you
By the blood of Jesus Christ
Shed on Calvary’s tree for me
I have been purchase by the blood of Jesus
My mind is not a dumping ground
For dirt, garbage, and waste
Gossip, envy, and lustful thoughts
It is not meant to be a breeding ground
For pest, maggot, and rottenness
Jealousy, anger, and wickedness
My mind is the mind of Christ
Filled with faith in Christ saving grace by His blood
Endowed with the wisdom of heaven
Made pure by the Holy Spirit
Enlightened and empowered
To sift through the deception of sin
To hold unto eternal life in Christ Jesus
To seek the Kingdom of God on earth
To glorify God always in my…

Two Edged- Ness!
The two edged-ness of marital difficulty in a woman’s life. What do you mean by this you might ask.How do we find a balance? Well, a godly woman going through turbulence in her relationship is torn between pain, hurt, low self worth, doubt, faith and countless emotions all at the same time.
You see, depending on the magnitude of what is going on behind closed door, there is fear also about what will come from outside when the curtains are opened to let in sunshine into the home.
Friends, believe it or not, a godly woman in a broken marriage for instance, will end up stigmatized and labelled, regardless of whatever. This is why women stay in very toxic relationship and end up been killed many a times! This is not just for people in the world, it is happening amongst Christians too. Why will she be …..? Well, she will end up on the other side of the isle. But she was a victim of infidelity, abuse, and what not! Yes, that is right, but now she is separated from her beloved, her crown, pride and joy, who has deem it fit to remove the covering God entrusted to him from her head, and How? Well, this woman will try to reinvent herself, put extra care in her outward appearance to mask what is inside for validation since the hubby has failed in this regard by his action or inaction. Be reminded that she is on display now for every one knows her business, cultural and emotional factors coming into play here.
Then (the hunter) men who preys, will notice and knowing what every woman crave, yearn, appreciate and so on for regardless of age will subtly pass compliment here and there, show some kindness and that is how the enemy will capitalize on what is missing for an onslaught.
Watch out ladies, there is more at stake other than your reputation, life and destiny of you and others are placed on the line by the wicked one. Remember he has come to kill, steal and destroy. Don’t say because he did it you want to get back at him! You will only be hurting yourself in the process. Leave it to God and draw closer, not away from God. It amazes me that some stop going to Church or change Church because of marital issues. Shouldn’t this be the time to stay put in His presence? Remain faithful! It is painful quite alright, but letting your guards down will be worst off in the long run. Put your trust in God and pray for him even more.
Pray for him? No way! Well, what did Jesus say in Matthew 5: 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. He was not your enemy until life happens right? but now all the love you had has been turned to hate. See, friends, love and hatred is on a spectrum, two extremes okay? For the love of God, don’t go down hill, it will only increase your hurt and bring in all kinds of evil.
This is how women of easy virtue comes into play. Someone did this to you and you want to pay it forward right? It doesn’t work like that in the kingdom of God. Don’t let hate rule your heart! You had a part to play in the breakup anyways, things do not happen in a vacuum. Something was left undone and spiralled out of control. Own up to your shortcomings before God and He will sort you and yours out. We often live in denial and put all the blame on the other person. It is not new, it happened in the garden in Eden and countless generations after Adam, even God’s elect like Abraham went through it, thanks to great grandmother Sarah.
Draw your strength and validation from God, have faith that it will work out for your good! Ask God to forgive you also for failing to entrust everything to him at the beginning or right when you saw the telltale sign.
Most High God, I bring before you all your daughters going through one issue or another in their homes, send comfort to everyone. Sweet Holy Spirit help them to stay right, to pray and seek for godly counsel. Soothe their aches, only you can reach there. Help the men also to humble themselves before you. Convict them of their sins and bring about repentance, healing, restitution and restoration. Let the seed of love grow back in all marriages Lord, help us all to love you through our spouses even when they go astray, may your love through Us bring them back home. Break the hold of every strange women and men over our spouses Lord! Help us to rekindle the flame of love we once had for each other. Be merciful Lord and help us quickly, let the world not taunt our professed faith in You Lord Jesus! Come quickly to our aid by your Holy Spirit in Jesus mighty name we pray. Amen
Live The Word!

The way to develop self-confidence is to do the thing you fear and get a record of successful experiences behind you.

What next? What is required of me you might ask? In your everyday interaction showcase Jesus. Share your testimony – the many things God has done for you, starting from your salvation. Live the word!
Friends, look for opportunity to serve, anything no matter what, do it for Jesus. On your blogs, share stories about the goodness of God. Be aware that when God speaks to you through His word, dreams, insight and so on it is for the good of all. Don’t keep it to yourself alone except He instruct you otherwise and if it’s a sensitive issue. I have been very guilty of this, for what God says to one, He says to ALL!
Put your faith to action and partner with the Holy Spirit to reach out and start living for what you believe. The Lord is faithful and will bring every promise to pass in your life. Every encounter with you let it be refreshing. Let the joy of the Lord radiate through you to many. Smile, be happy, whatever personal chaos will pass, it has not come to stay. In the process of meeting others needs, your needs are been met also. You will receive insight that will spearhead the solution to your issues and many others. Yield totally your members for Christ to use to soothe the broken hearted.
Shalom
You Shall Succeed!
Radiant Glory Of Love
