Zeal For His House

Dear Sisters,

We thank God Almighty for His mighty deeds in our midst during the Conference. It was phenomenal and to Him alone be all the glory. Feel free to share your testimonies with us.

I was meditating recently on 'how God driven we truly are' and i thought to discuss it with you all.
You know how we all say to God to use me for your glory....consume me and set my heart on fire? Do we truly live in the reality of that already provided zeal? or do we just consider it as a cliche we do not mean?
the truth is, one of the ways we can show our zeal for God is through our disposition to the things and house of God.
Are you the type that sees how 'better things can be done in your church or Christian gathering yet you do not make efforts to make yourself available to 'make things better'? Not even in the place of Prayer. When in actual fact, you and I should be consumed by the Zeal for His House - Psalm 69:9.
Recall Jesus' disposition when he saw people buying and selling in the temple? Does the things of the kingdom have a place in your heart or just your mouth? Don't just call Lord, Lord and be far away.

When you are consumed with Matthew 6:33, the things of God become your concern not just your pastor's.

Let's stop seeing the things of our Father as 'their thing', get involved. You can get involved in various ways: prayers, encouragement, volunteering, and many more ways as the Spirit leads you.

Loads of love,

Your Sis

As They Went

Dear Beautiful One, I trust that you are well and that this post meets you in great spirits. Some time ago, I had a task at work that seemed very convoluted. I wasn't quite sure how to go about it, but as I started, it became clearer what I needed to do and how I needed to go about it. I have come to realise that one of the most significant milestones one could ever deal with is starting and because the enemy knows this, he tries to keep us from starting. Keeps us from starting to obey God or cultivating the right attitude or association. This and other similar occurrences made me begin meditating on the power of starting. Often we are faced with so many undaunted decisions and uncertainties and get conflicted about the aftermath of a decision even before we begin. Frankly, we will never know what lies ahead if we never start. So the best way to know what lies ahead is to start. Start from where you are. Clarity comes from doing. My pastor usually buttresses this point

DEALING WITH NEGATIVE THOUGHTS

Dear Sisters, I trust God that you and yours are doing well. Before now, I would b ea t myself up each time a negative thought crosses my mind. This led me to do a lot of meditation on the power of thoughts and how to take charge of them. Of the many things I have now come to understand is that: negative thoughts in themselves are not bad. I know that sounds weird but stay with me, let me explain myself. Allowing these thoughts to remain and control us is where the issue lies. It reminds me of the analogy of temptation versus sin. It is okay to be tempted, but it is not okay to sin. When I was meditating on this, I read a devotional that week that reiterated that dwelling on bad thoughts is what causes believers to fall. For the purpose of context, not all negative thoughts are 'fornication' or 'adultery' related; sometimes, it is not doing the will of the Father. Peter is a good example here when he said Christ would not wash his feet (John 13:8) and when he reprim

Purposefully Marching Forward

Dear Sisters, Happy New Month! Welcome to March, the month where God is moving us further in purpose. I trust that you and yours are doing well and keeping safe. It ' s so good to be on here. I was studying the ministry of Elisha recently , and I took not e of his dimension of impact. What a man! He carried a double portion of Elijah ' s anointing , and Elijah was not small in any way. While Elijah and Elisha were very similar, they were distinct in their purpose and those they were sent to, nothwithstanding the measure of anointing . Most of Elijah ' s miracles were inclined to life and death. On the other hand, most of Elisha ' s miracles were restoration based like healing people and nations . Therefore, it can be said that Elisha was a prophet of grace while Elijah was a prophet of judgment. Elijah gave testimonies against men's sin and evil, while Elisha's testimonies were inclined for salvation and preach God ' s m
