MY PORTION



MY PORTION
The Psalmist said in Psalm 24 vs. 1: The earth is the LORD’s and his fullness thereof, the world and those that dwell therein. GOD created the heaven and the earth. He owns the universe. He controls all things in the universe. Genesis 1 vs. 26: And GOD said, let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. GOD made man to be fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion over all living thing upon the earth. Genesis 1 vs. 28: And GOD blessed them, and GOD said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply and replenish the earth and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Portion is one’s lot. It is an inheritance. It is that which a person is entitled to inherit. Many are ignorant of the fact, they are to possess the earth, rule and dominate. As a child of GOD, anywhere the sole of your feet steps, you are to possess it. The Israelites possessed land which their feet stepped, because GOD was with them; and because He promised their father’s Abraham, Isaac and Israel. Deuteronomy 32 vs.9 (AMP): For the LORD’s portion is his people; Jacob (Israel) is the lot of his inheritance. Vs 10 (AMP): He found him in a desert land, in the howling void of the wilderness; He kept circling around him, He scanned him, He kept him as the pupil of His eye. Vs. 11(AMP): As an eagle that stir up her nest, that flutters over her young, He spread abroad His wings and He took them, He bore them on His pinions. Vs.12 (AMP): So the LORD alone led him, there was no foreign god with him. Vs. 13 (AMP): He made Israel ride on the high places of the earth, and he ate the increase of the field; and He made him suck honey out of the rock and oil out of the flinty rock.

                   Israel enjoyed all these, because he made GOD is portion. He had no foreign gods. He had no idol. GOD was his portion. When you make GOD your portion, you possess all. GOD owns the universe; He remains the same and changes not. There are inheritances set aside for only those that make GOD their portion.  Psalm 16 vs. 5: The LORD is the portion of mine inheritance and of my cup; thou maintains my lot. David made GOD is portion. He choose GOD and GOD held him and maintained his lot for him. No wonder he said in Vs.6: The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places, yea, I have a goodly heritage. When you make GOD your portion, the lines fall unto you in pleasant place. Things will go smoothly for you. What is your portion? What have you chosen over GOD? Its time you re-think and make GOD your portion. Your flesh and desires will fail; why not make the LORD your portion. Psalm 73 vs. 26: My flesh and my heart fails; but GOD is the strength of my heart, and my portion forever. As for me, GOD is my portion forevermore. What about you? 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...
