THE SNARE OF THE FOWLER

THE SNARE OF THE FOWLER
Life as we know is full of challenges. You cannot please men; they will still find faults in you. The bible says the heart of men is wicked and desperate; who can know it. Many conceal wickedness in their hearts against their fellow being. Many laugh with you and still afflict you. Even, if you are good to them that doesn’t stop them from been bad to you. The world is full of wickedness and a lot of snares from the fowler. A snare is a form of trap while a fowler is a hunter. A hunter hunts for animals and uses the trap many times to catch them. In this world, we have fowlers of destiny and life. They hunt down men and ensure GOD’s promise doesn’t come to pass in the life of a man. The Psalmist also confirmed this; surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the noisome pestilence. Only GOD can deliver us from the snares of the fowler. The snares are evident everywhere in the world. The devil himself is the master of the fowlers, their aim is to kill, steal and destroy. We must be aware of these as believers, so we won’t be their victims.

                     Bigthana and Teresh in the bible were fowlers of life. They made plans to kill King Xerxes, they became angry of the King and they were the King’s officers that guarded the door way. Many have been killed by fowlers of life, fowlers are always angry with you. They see nothing good in you despite you been good to them. Mordecai learnt about their plans and told Queen Esther, before they were both hanged on a post. The bible says “whoso digs shall fall therein and he that rolls a stone, it will return upon him”. The fowler digs pit in form of snare and ensure their victims falls into it. The fowlers roll stones to their victims just to hurt them. Only GOD can deliver us from the fowlers. They are everywhere in our families, place of work and anywhere. Mordecai himself was almost hunted and killed by the fowler. Haman was his fowler, he was not satisfied with killing only Mordecai, but wanted to find a way to destroy all of Mordecai’s people; the Jews in all of Xerxes kingdom. That is what a fowler can do; they are not satisfied until they see your downfall. They don’t rest and sleep until they see your downfall. They don’t rest and sleep until their victims are hunted down. GOD disgraced Haman, he dug a pit for Mordecai, but he himself fell into it. He rolled a stone at Mordecai, but the stone returned to him. This is what GOD can do. He GOD causes the fowler’s snare to catch himself. Whether you do good or bad, the fowler’s snare is always set. You need to believe in GOD, so you can be more than Conqueror. 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...
