I have seen something else under the sun:

The race is not to the swift
    or the battle to the strong,
nor does food come to the wise
    or wealth to the brilliant
    or favour to the learned;
but time and chance happen to them all.”

Ecclesiastes 9:11

In the struggle between the stone
and the water – in time the water wins. Stone is harder than water, but in
time, the water erodes it. Whatever is in its path must eventually give way. Time
is in the hands of God, and each moment, day and year that passes, God is
working in your heart, if you allow Him. 

What is your struggle? What is
that situation that seems so hard, so unwilling to yield? We all fight common
battles, just camouflaged differently. Don’t allow the vicissitudes of life to
harden your heart and cause you to doubt God’s love for you. Allow the pure water
of God’s Word to refine you and melt you. No matter what your situation says,
there is a way out.

God often works through the
circumstances of your life to mould you for His divine plan. No matter how hard
your situation may look today, no condition is permanent. When it is God’s time
for you to move into your destiny, nothing can stop it. The water of the Word
of God will break the obstacles and open the way for a new season.

Water is always moving, always
flowing, as is the Spirit of God in your heart. Just as the water erodes the
stone over time, God is doing His process in our lives! we have to be
absolutely obedient to His ways; and when the time comes, we shall see His
glory.

 

 

May the living water of God’s presence wash away your fears and doubts today in Jesus’ name, as you allow Him to finish His process in your heart, because in time the water wins. 

 

 

WRITTEN IN HEAVEN

“However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.” Luke 10:20
When the seventy-two disciples returned with joy from their mission, Jesus warned them that the source of their joy should come not from the visible results of the Spirit’s power, but the Holy Spirit Himself, who has sealed for Christ, and written our name in Heaven.”

REVIVE ME

“As long as you have the gift of life, make sure your spirit is revived and this is something only the Spirit of God can do through His Word, which is spirit and life (John 6:63).

* Oh Holy Spirit, breath of God, breathe in me the breath of God!
* Oh Holy Spirit, through whom all things were created, create in me a new life, a new beginning!.”

GOD FIRST

“Let’s take a lesson from David who was ready to be humiliated in his own eyes, so that God could be honoured. Ask yourself: Where does honouring God appear in your list of priorities? Do you thank Him for all that He has done in your life, all the way long? While men look at the outside, God looks at the motives of the heart. Instead of worrying about the opinion of others concerning you, let the motive of your heart each day be to honour God before yourself.”
