YOUR CARRY OVER NOT CAREER OVER!

          YOUR CARRY OVER NOT CAREER OVER
I write on this topic to encourage souls that are depressed, frustrated and suppressed. Many a time we pray to GOD awaiting answers and he will be silent. I want you to know GOD’s foolishness is wiser than the wisdom of man. GOD’s way are not that of man, neither are his thoughts that of ours. His plan toward us is always of good and not of evil, to give us an expected end. Everyone desires an outstanding, colorful and excellent career, but many a time all seems not to go well. I noticed we find ourselves in hard situations at times just for GOD‘s name to be glorified. He said I will be glorified again. The Psalmist quipped though sorrow may last by night, but joy cometh in the morning. No matter the state of circumstances you find yourselves, just have it at the back of your mind, it is for the glory of GOD and GOD will be glorified. Our GOD is a good GOD, he said cast all your cares on me, I care. Who says GOD has forgotten you, he hasn’t; he knows what you are presently facing; he will be glorified again at the end. The bible said wait on the Lord, be of good courage and he will strengthen thee. Many in situations or circumstances do not wait on GOD, many are discouraged when they face hard circumstances, we shouldn’t be; only those that wait on GOD will he strengthen, they will mount up with wings as eagle, they will walk and not faint, run  and not be weary.

         Furthermore, when you are in circumstances wait on the Lord, those that don’t wait on GOD are always victims and losers. You see them running and fainting, they will be frustrated. Let’s consider this analogy, two different cases here; two university finalists sat for their final papers, with good and solid preparations and with high expectations. When the final result was released, the first carried a course over; he failed a course which automatically means he is not graduating that year. When he saw the result he was depressed at first, but he encouraged himself in the Lord and knew it’s just for GOD to be glorified. The second checked his result and also carried a course over; he also failed a course which automatically means he is not graduating that year. The next thing he did was to commit suicide; he killed himself out of ignorance. That is a bad thing to do when in difficult situation, killing yourself is not the next thing, He was in a school of thought carrying a course over meant career over. We shouldn’t be in that school of thought, rather we should be in the school of thought carry over is not career over. The first man sat for the course he failed the following year and now he is fully employed and settled. GOD was glorified at the end because he buys into the thought carry over is not career over. Beloved, no matter how hard your situation’ it is for a short time; it will pass away; don’t give up, be encouraged in GOD and wait on him. It is well with us……

WHEN YOUR SAMUEL COMES

WHEN YOUR SAMUEL COMES Hannah made a vowed which GOD honors and remembered her.   1 Samuel 1 vs. 19-20: And they rose up in the morning early, and worshipped before the LORD and returned and came to their house to Ramah; and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and the LORD remembered her. Wherefore it came to pass when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived that she bare a son, and called his name Samuel, saying because I have asked him of the LORD.      What a wonderful GOD! She asked for a man child and He gave her exactly. She should have asked for sets of twin or triplet, which GOD would have given her. There is nothing GOD cannot do, He cannot be limited. With Him all things are possible. Mind you Hannah fulfilled her vow by giving the son back to him. Many make vows and don’t fulfill it. Be conscious of these, GOD’s way are not the ways of men, His thoughts are not ours. GOD has his own timing. His timing doesn’t match with the timing of ...

TOLERANCE

TOLERANCE I start quoting Robert Green Ingersoll “Tolerance is giving every other human being every right that you claim for yourself ”. This is a virtue every man scarcely has nowadays. Men nowadays find it difficult to tolerate each other. In all religions, Christians are to exhibit tolerance the most; because CHRIST stated that it’s the second greatest commandment. Matthew 22 vs.38-39: This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it. Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. But the reverse is the case now, most Christians exhibit intolerance. They can’t tolerate their Christian brothers talk less of those outside their religion. This is awful and not so good. Hebrews 13 vs. 1-2: Let brotherly love continue. Be not forgetful to entertain strangers; for thereby some have entertained angels unaware. Abraham exhibited tolerance, he suddenly noticed three men coming toward him and ran to meet them and welcomed them. He gave them water to wash their feet’s...

WINNING THROUGH TESTIMONIES

WINNING THROUGH TESTIMONIES 2! An earthly father will be delighted and willing to do more for his son or daughter, when she/he shows gratitude. How will you feel when you give something tangible to a person and he didn’t show gratitude? You will feel unwilling to do more for such person. Our heavenly Father deserves to be shown gratitude for all He has done in our lives. Thank GOD for what He has done in the past, what He is doing presently and what He will do in the future. There is no little testimony; you just have to appreciate GOD for his faithfulness and marvelous deeds. Marvelous deeds like, the gift of life, which is the greatest of all blessings, good health and sound mind, sleeping and waking up. Many slept and never woke up, while many find it difficult to sleep. We have to see reasons to appreciate GOD; doing these will gladden Him to do more for us.              However, problems, trials, challenges might be in...
