Wisdom is the principal thing, humility and empathy are its friends.

How! How Can It Be! God!!
Sometimes I just wonder how The Lord works! I mean, how could apostle Paul who preached to many, cast out demons and led many out of darkness into light, yet had a thorn in his flesh and was not able to do nothing about it except call upon God!
How about Joseph? He dreamt, had pre knowledge of what was to come, resolved a whole nations imminent disaster, yet was not able to maneuver himself away from slavery and prison! How can it be so? Why?
Sovereign God!!! Your ways are past finding out! You are just in all your ways Lord! Pardon my many questions, give me understanding, and insight, depth of insight Lord, that I might know you more, my Savior and King in Jesus mighty name. Amen
Shalom! Shalom! Shalom!
Be Encouraged! He Knows!
Joseph got a dream and received intense hatred from his brothers. His father took it in with a grain of salt. Joseph went through all ills to preserve the seeds of Abraham the friend of God. Abram before he became the father of nations was called out of darkness to walk before God and be blameless. It was unheard of in his generation of idol worshippers? I can go on and on with examples in scriptures of those that God uses to achieve phenomenal exploit.
Above all you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their evil desires. 2 Peter 3:3
The wicked one will make fun of your faith, deride your person, sneer at your achievement, taunts the situation and circumstances of your life, ridicule your humility and sensitivity. They asked Jesus to save himself from the cross, they must have sneered at Mary also – holy Sister, you were not afterall holy as you pretend to be, who’s pregnancy is it anyways? Holy Spirit? Ha ha ha! She was almost stoned but for the quick intervention of God sending an angel to Joseph in a dream.
How often do we deride that which we do not know or understand.

There’s Good In It!
There is a time for everything under the sun. In joy, and in sadness, in trials and peace, in plenty and in lack, friends, there are lessons to be learnt.
Are you listening to what the spirit is saying to you this moment of calmness and ease? Please listen and do the Lord’s bidding.
Desire the sincere milk/meat of the word, dwell in it and you will receive sight even for the journey ahead!
Shalom! Shalom! Shalom!
Eternally Loved!
Sisters, you have to find yourself in Christ first in order for that gentleman to find you. Matthew 6:33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
You see, if you do not know who you are in Christ, who Christ is and how much He loves you, your God ordained mate may never show up. When he shows up you may not be recognizable for he will be looking for a Princess, fabulously beautiful inside out, confident of her Godly heritage, with a pure and loving heart. He is not looking for battered and bruised reed by the coast! Cheer up please!!!
Shalom friends and have a wonderful weekend!
Hello daughters of the Most High God! Are you in a Godly relationship? Thank God! Is it ungodly? Pray yourself out!!! Fast! Maybe you are not in any! Well, no relationship equals the one with the lover of your soul – Jesus Christ. He loves you while you were been formed in the womb and knows every details of your existence.
Are you single, engaged, married, separated, or divorced, or in between? Whatever your relationship status, Christ loves you. It doesn’t matter where you’ve been, what you’ve done or not done, nothing reduces your worth or the love Jesus has for you. Let nothing deceive you, you are very precious and deeply loved by the most handsome, kind, generous, compassionate, selfless, loving man that ever walked this earth. You should be thrilled sisters. I have thousands of butterfly in my stomach giggling !!!!!
Allow Christ to love you, yield…

Sufficient Grace!
2 Corinthians 12:9 But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.
Running this race requires grace. We live, breath and move by grace and the Lord has promised us sufficient grace to finish well. In whatever state or phase, at every and any given season, God’s grace is available and it is sufficient the Lord said.
The question then as asked in today’s devotion by Pastor E. A. Adeboye is “How are you living today?” As the alpha and omega of your life and others? Like Christ is not coming back as promised? Or “Can you take a stand for the Lord in righteousness and refuse to compromise with sin?” Are you so challenged that you want to cave in just to be accepted by the world and miss out of all that heaven has for you? Are you weary, burdened by the cares all around? God’s grace is sufficient for you friend! He that saved Daniel from the Lions den, also empowered David to face Goliath, He delivered Paul the apostle and He is very much available to save and deliver you from all the force of hell.
Will you reach out today. Call on the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, Jehovah the man of war. Let faith arise in you to take hold of all that is available for you in Christ Jesus. Grace will not let you fall, you will not fail, neither will you be put to shame. All expecting evil of you will see the Radiant Glory of God over you. You shall stand triumphantly over all evil in the presence of God Most High, the Ancient of Days, declaring, to Him who sits on the throne and unto the Lamb, be glory, honor and power forever. Amen
Shalom! Shalom! Shalom!
Agape Love – Pure Glory
When you live your life, from the spectrum of what other people think of you, your life will be dismal and short. However, when you live your life, from the perspective of what heaven thinks of you, your life will be full and long. Don’t give people more power, in your life, than God should have.
“We know that we have passed from death into Life when we have love for the brethren. He who does not love abides (remains, is held and kept continually) in [spiritual] death.” (1 John 3:14). I love these two scriptures, We know that we have really changed from the place of death, when we have died to the opinions and expectations of people and simply love ❤️ people like the Father loves us. Love ❤️ is gladly expending yourself, more and more abundantly, although you may be loved less. When you can expend yourself, for God’s interest in others, not caring, what the cost will entail, loving with God’s purpose. Then you are walking in Yahweh’s Love. Love ❤️ is loving with God’s love and his purpose. (2 Corinthians 12:15)
Yahweh, through our yielding to the power of the Holy Spirit, empowers us to love people regardless, of how they treat us, destructively criticize us, falsely accuse or falsify information concerning us, or simply discuss us, with others, while avoiding conversing directly, to us (Matthew 18:15-22).
Sometimes, we are the worse army in the world 🌎, (the ones whom kill their own). We, the ambassadors and representatives of the Kingdom of Christ, when we are in our conferences, churches, ministries, choirs, worship teams, etc. However, inwardly ravening wolves 🐺, jealous of one another, killing each other with our mouths 👄 and spiritual prejudices. Singing and speaking how we are redeemed and forgiven, while holding others hostage, to judgment in our hearts, to their forgiven history or past sin, and to our religious Pharisee Sadducee opinion of them.
The condition of the world 🌎, is because of the condition of the church 🏡. The church 🏡 isn’t peripheral to the world 🌎, but the world 🌎 is peripheral to the church 🏡. The racism and prejudice in the world 🌎, is because of the spiritual racism and spiritual prejudice, in the church.
How can we, “God’s chosen vessels of honor, Treasures of God’s Glory, the Protégés of Christ”, represent the Kingdom of God’s love, if we cannot hold what someone tells us in private confidence, for disclosing it to others? We have to come to ourselves, like the prodigal son, (Luke 15:17 “…came to himself.“) like Peter came to himself.
Agape Love ❤️ is the end of selfishness and the beginning of self-fullness in Christ. The promotion of who we are IN CHRIST. Come to embracing, who you are in Christ. “And when Peter was COME TO HIMSELF, he said, Now I know of a surety, that the Lord hath sent his angel, and hath DELIVERED (PLUCKED OUT, TEAR OUT, RELEASE) me out of the hand of Herod (ruling spirit of death; principality that fights and opposes the purposes of God), and from all the expectation (infliction and evil intentions) of the people of the Jews.” (Acts 12:11).
Although, it is a process, Yahweh wants to deliver you from Herod (spirit of death) and deliver you from the fear or infliction of people. Yahweh doesn’t require everyone to love us, but he does require us to follow peace, with all men (pure holiness) and love them.
The last time I checked the Word in Psalms 23, God said, “I’m preparing a luxurious, exquisite, supernaturally tailored banquet table for “YOU”, in the presence of those who don’t even like “YOU.” It is not your responsibility to make everyone love or like you, it’s your responsibility to love ❤️ God withal your heart and love yourself the way the Father loves you. Therefore, you can’t afford to live, by the impulses of what other people think of you.
When you have the indisputable heavyweight champion of Glory, who loves you unconditionally, thinks only thoughts to prosper you, and not harm you. He wants to give you the future he placed in your heart. He wants to fulfill the desires of your heart, as you delight yourself in Him.
There are enough souls, broken-hearted, hurting, homeless, helpless, and aimless people, without Christ, for everyone to reach. We are stronger and better together, we are weak and bleak, apart. We are a great Lion 🦁, when we rise together. However, we are an inferior prey, to the enemy, when we fight each other and fall apart. Only the pure love of God and the Spirit of Truth can bring us together!
Delivered – active voice to tear out; middle voice to select; figuratively to release: – deliver pluck out rescue. pluck out
Expectation – apprehension (of evil); by implication infliction anticipated: – expectation looking after.
Pharisee – pretended holiness that leads to separation, more righteous than others, lacking genuine love ❤️, hypocrisy legalism
Sadducee – opposes the true Spirit of Christ; denial of resurrection and coming of the Messiah, more liberal than the Pharisees
by Apostle Gabriel Cross When you live your life, from the spectrum of what other people think of you, your life will be dismal and short. However, when you live your life, from the perspective of what heaven thinks of you, your life will be full and long. Don’t give people more power, in your […]
Sufficient Grace!
2 Corinthians 12:9 But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”
Dullness In Hearing! Seeing Heart!
As a child of God, be it a prophet, teacher, evangelist, encourager, etc, our familiarity with The Word, our “knowing” of the things of God, the mind of God, our age and the likes often and may cause us to have “dullness” of hearing, “weakness” in our eyes like Eli had in 1 Samuel 3. Yet God in His infinite mercy and love makes provision for us. He sent Samuel to Eli’s household and has sent His Holy Spirit to us in this end time as Christ promised in John 14:15 “If you love me, keep my commands. 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever— 17 the Spirit of truth.
To use today’s word, God gave us a conscience, to nudge, prick and commune with us amongst all others. Are we listening, or is our conscience seared as in 1 Timothy 4: 1-2? Friends, examine yourself, examine your ways!!!! Romans 2: 13 For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God’s sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be declared righteous. 14 (Indeed, when Gentiles, who do not have the law, do by nature things required by the law, they are a law for themselves, even though they do not have the law.15 They show that the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts sometimes accusing them and at other times even defending them.)16 This will take place on the day when God judges people’s secrets through Jesus Christ, as my gospel declares.
Father, we ask in Jesus mighty name that you will recreate in us a right spirit, may your Holy Spirit convict us of our sins bringing about repentance, may our hearts that have been seared receive life, may your truth take root in our minds, may we be quickened by your Holy Spirit to live right before you, holding unto faith and a good conscience in Christ Jesus mighty name we pray. We magnify your name for rekindling your fire within us. Thank you Father for speedy answers in Jesus name. Amen
Shalom! Shalom! Shalom!
Faithfulness To God!
Radiant Glory Of Love
