AUGUST YOUR START UP – NO MATTER HOW SMALL

By Leave a Comment

AUGUST YOUR START UP – NO MATTER HOW SMALL: THE LATTER WILL COME WITH GREAT INCREASE!

“Though thy BEGINNING was SMALL, yet thy LATTER end should GREATLY INCREASE” Job 8:7.

“The Lord God is my STRENGTH, and He will MAKE MY FEET like HINDS’ FEET, and He will make me to WALK upon mine HIGH PLACES” Habakkuk 3:19.

It’s time to maximise your New Dawn – heads up, shoulders high and high heels of faith for higher places towards your plan, purpose and pursuit in Christ Jesus stead. The Lord God gives strength and makes hinds feet to walk majestic and in honour in high places of the earth. For He lifts the poor from the dust and places them in a position of greatness, even in the palaces of honour. So, DESPISE not your small beginning with God as He process you to greatness in His grace to BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“The Lord maketh poor, and maketh rich: he bringeth low, and lifteth up. 8 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and LIFTETH UP THE BEGGAR FROM THE DUNGHILL, TO SET THEM AMONG PRINCES, AND TO MAKE THEM INHERIT THE THRONE OF GLORY: for the PILLARS OF THE EARTH are the Lord’s, and he hath set the world upon them. 9 He will keep the feet of his saints, and the wicked shall be silent in darkness; for by strength shall no man prevail” 1 Samuel 2:7-9.

For God’s daily PLANS and THOUGHTS toward you are of PEACE and WELL-BEING, to give you the needed HOPE for today and a FUTURE. Jeremiah 29:11. Therefore I say to you: DESPISE NOT YOUR BEGINNING NO MATTER HOW SMALL – YOUR GREATNESS LIVES WITHIN IT. Ensure and be assured of God in the process and you live to celebrate in His grace.

“For I know the PLANS and THOUGHTS that I have for you,’ says the Lord, ‘PLANS for PEACE and WELL-BEING and not for DISASTER, to give you a FUTURE and a HOPE” Jeremiah 29:11.

Don’t be ashamed to start small in anything that has a clear purpose in it. With diligent attitude, your altitude will come in no time for your steadfast gratitude in Christ Jesus stead. Therefore, despise not your small beginning as long as you are not competing and impressing, but complementing and expressing the fulness of God in Christ Jesus stead within you, as you do life and godly living.

“For who hath DESPISED the day of SMALL things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the Lord, which run to and fro through the whole earth” Zechariah 4:10.

For as long as there’s a process, there’s greatness. Anything without a process is a fraud and a scam. Therefore, don’t be afraid of that process, no matter how small, there’s greatness in it because God is at work in that purpose to give you a future and a hope in the grace. And all things by God, will work together for your good in the grace to fulfil the purpose wherein you are called of God in your love for Him to make it all possible for His glory and  virtue and honour.

“And we know that all things work together for good to them that LOVE God, to them who are the CALLED according to His PURPOSE” Romans 8:28.

“In whom also we have OBTAINED an INHERITANCE, being PREDESTINATED according to the PURPOSE of Him who worketh all things after the counsel of His OWN will: 12 that we should be to the praise of His glory, who first trusted in Christ” Ephesians 1:11-12.

“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath PREPARED for them that LOVE him. 10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God” 1 Corinthians 2:9-10.

For to August is to be – graciously dignified, profoundly honoured, befitting as Lord/Lordship,  majestic and venerable. Therefore, take a new stride in this Month AUGUST, and AUGUST your life in the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God which is of Christ Jesus. That will put you in a unique pedestal of God’s eternal plans, purposes and pursuits. Upon this, I welcome you again to the PATH to August your life in RIGHTEOUSNESS, no matter how small your beginning seems, you are going to get a latter overflow.

DESPISE NOT YOUR BEGINNING – YOUR GREATNESS LIVES WITHIN IT. ENSURE AND BE ASSURED OF THE PROCESS WILL LEAD TO GREATNESS.

Therefore, till [cultivate] your land [small beginning], with the enabling grace that God has given you, you will in no time become that which you earnestly desire to become. When there’s a PROCESS, there’s a future in that set task [plan, purpose and pursuit]. When there’s no process, then there’s delusional, for whatever had no process is a fraud and a scam – what an unhealthy state to be in the grace. Hence, tilling [cultivating], your land [starts-up], is a hallmark of diligence, and will overtime place you in the status of the noble with dignity and grace.

“He that TILLETH [CULTIVATES] his LAND [STARTS-UP] shall be SATISFIED with bread: but he that FOLLOWETH VAIN [MEAN, SLOTHFUL, OBSCURED] persons is void of understanding” Proverbs 12:11/Emphasis Mine.

“He that TILLETH [CULTIVATES] his LAND [STARTS-UP] shall have PLENTY of bread: but he that FOLLOWETH after VAIN [OBSCURED, MEAN]  PERSONS shall have POVERTY enough. 20 A FAITHFUL man shall ABOUND WITH BLESSINGS: but he that MAKETH HASTE to be rich shall NOT be innocent. 21 To have respect of persons is not good: for for a PIECE OF BREAD that man will transgress. 22 He that HASTETH TO BE RICH hath an EVIL EYE, and considereth not that POVERTY shall come upon him” Proverbs 28:19-22/Emphasis mine.

“Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall STAND before KINGS [NOBLE, HONOUR]; he shall NOT STAND before MEAN [OBSCURED, UNPRODUCTIVE] men” Proverbs 22:29/Emphasis Mine..

It’s my earnest PRAYERS today, that as  you take the bull by the horns to ensure your start-up is cultivated through the process, you will not only be satisfied with what you will eventually become in the grace, but will also abound with blessing – and to be blessed is to be EMPOWERED to succeed, achieve, prosper and more, in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“For who hath DESPISED the day of SMALL things? for they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are the eyes of the Lord, which run to and fro through the whole earth” Zechariah 4:10.

“So the Lord BLESSED the LATTER end of Job more than his BEGINNING: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses” Job 42:12.

“For I know the PLANS and THOUGHTS that I have for you,’ says the Lord, ‘PLANS for PEACE and WELL-BEING and not for DISASTER, to give you a FUTURE and a HOPE” Jeremiah 29:11.

“The Lord God is my STRENGTH, and He will MAKE MY FEET like HINDS’ FEET, and He will make me to WALK upon mine HIGH PLACES” Habakkuk 3:19.

“O ISRAEL, TRUST thou in the Lord: He is their help and their shield. 10 O HOUSE OF AARON, TRUST in the Lord: He is their help and their shield. 11 Ye that FEAR the Lord, TRUST in the Lord: He is their help and their shield. 12 The Lord hath been MINDFUL of us: He will BLESS us; He will BLESS the HOUSE OF ISRAEL; He will BLESS the HOUSE OF AARON. 13 He will BLESS THEM THAT FEAR the Lord, both SMALL and GREAT. 14 The Lord shall INCREASE you more and more, YOU and YOUR CHILDREN. 15 Ye are BLESSED of the Lord which made heaven and earth. 16 The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord’s: but the earth hath He GIVEN to the children of men. 17 The dead praise not the Lord, neither any that go down into silence. 18 But we will BLESS the Lord from this time forth and for evermore. Praise the Lord” Psalms 115:9-18.

TOUGH TIMES NEVER LAST FOR EVER

TOUGH TIMES NEVER LAST FOR EVER: THE TOUGH IN FAITH WILL ALWAYS KEEP ON KEEPING ON – EVEN WHEN ALL THINGS COMES TO A HALT!

“Dear brothers, is your life FULL OF DIFFICULTIES and TEMPTATIONS? Then be HAPPY, 3 for when the way is ROUGH, your PATIENCE has a chance to GROW. 4 So let it GROW, and don’t try to SQUIRM OUT of your problems. For when your PATIENCE is finally in FULL BLOOM, then you will be READY for anything, STRONG IN CHARACTER, FULL AND COMPLETE” James 1:2-4/Living Bible [TLB].

Sometimes doing life by the book, and the right things as expected in all goodness, may seems to be unfair in some or many occasions; and getting the expected helps to ensure that the good decisions that one have made or to make in order to accomplish the intended plans, purposes and pursuits seems unfounded or eluded. I know the feelings and understand of  such circumstances. And if that’s your circumstances, God is good and faithful, true and sure to answer you in all MATTERS in His grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

However, no matter how unfair doing life and doing the right things may seems to you today, know full well that God will eventually meet you at the point of you need, FOR TOUGH TIMES NEVER LAST FOREVER; and as long as you keep on keeping up in Faith, and as one that has a trusting spirit on God’s faithfulness and to His promises, there’s going to be an ANSWER. For being steadfastly and diligence and patience, in the grace through faith, so will God cause to have access to our promise inheritance in Him.

“For God is not UNRIGHTEOUS [UNFAITHFUL, UNGRATEFUL] to forget your WORK and LABOUR of love, which ye have SHEWED toward his name, in that ye have MINISTERED to the saints, and DO MINISTER. 11 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same DILIGENCE to the FULL ASSURANCE of hope unto the end: 12 that ye be not SLOTHFUL, but FOLLOWERS of them who through FAITH and PATIENCE INHERIT THE PROMISES” Hebrews 6:10-12/Emphasis Mine.

There’s the need to know full well and be assured, that every challenges has an appointed time, that is to say, there’s an end game time and date set to it under the sun no matter how long it last or stays; the Holy Writ indicates that – the expectations of the one who keeps on keeping up to maintain a right standing with God in trial times will not be cut off as written:

“For SURELY there is an END; and thine EXPECTATION shall not be CUT OFF” Proverbs 23:8.

When you ARE assured and insured as the Patriarch Abraham in God’s faithfulness to His promises, there will be hope against hope, and your tough times will never last forever; more so, God’s divine intervention will cause all things to work together for your good, happiness and peace. So did God to His promise to Abraham. All things eventually came together to a perfect, complete and whole answers to all expectations of God.

“And we know that ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose” Romans 8:28.

“. . . I have made you a FATHER OF MANY NATIONS, BEFORE WHOM HE BELIEVED, even God . . . Who (Abraham) AGAINST HOPE BELIEVED IN HOPE, that he might be a father of many nations . . . being FULLY PERSUADED that, what He (God) had promised, He was ABLE also to PERFORM . . .” Romans 4:17-25.

So today, no matter how much you’ve war to do the right things and the journey seems long or or longer, you need to keep on keeping up in faith. For faith is the VICTORY to overcome all trials of your journey in order to thrive and be more than conquerors over the world system of doing life that has stood in your path of progress and success. Faith, which is the corresponding action on what you believe on God’s WORD will surely locate you with your expectations as written:

“For WHATSOEVER is BORN of God OVERCOMETH the world: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMETH the world, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH the world, but he that BELIEVETH that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:4-5.

THERE MAY BE TOUGH TIMES – BUT TOUGH TIMES NEVER LAST FOR EVER. THE TOUGH IN FAITH WILL ALWAYS KEEP ON KEEPING ON, EVEN WHEN ALL THINGS COMES TO A HALT.

I pray that our good and faithful, true and sure God, will keep you in grace and strengthen you courageously and keep you keeping on in faith, in Christ Jesus stead – until your BLESSEDNESS in Him is actualised meaningfully and purposefully.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Consider it nothing but joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you fall into various trials. 3 Be assured that the testing of your faith [through experience] produces endurance [leading to spiritual maturity, and inner peace]. 4 And let endurance have its perfect result and do a thorough work, so that you may be perfect and completely developed [in your faith], lacking in nothing . . . 12 Blessed [happy, spiritually prosperous, favored by God] is the man who is steadfast under trial and perseveres when tempted; for when he has passed the test and been approved, he will receive the [victor’s] crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him. 13 Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God” [for temptation does not originate from God, but from our own flaws]; for God cannot be tempted by [what is] evil, and He Himself tempts no one. 14 But each one is tempted when he is dragged away, enticed and baited [to commit sin] by his own [worldly] desire (lust, passion)” James 1:2-4, 12-14. (Amplified).

“Therefore let the one who thinks he stands firm [immune to temptation, being overconfident and self-righteous], take care that he does not fall [into sin and condemnation]. 13 No temptation [regardless of its source] has overtaken or enticed you that is not common to human experience [nor is any temptation unusual or beyond human resistance]; but God is faithful [to His word—He is compassionate and trustworthy], and He will not let you be tempted beyond your ability [to resist], but along with the temptation He [has in the past and is now and] will [always] provide the way out as well, so that you will be able to endure it [without yielding, and will overcome temptation with joy]” 1 Corinthians 10:12-3. Amplified.

“CASTING ALL YOUR CARE upon him; for he CARETH for you. 8 Be SOBER, be VIGILANT; because your ADVERSARY the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: 9 whom RESIST STEDFAST in the FAITH, KNOWING THAT THE SAME AFFLICTIONS ARE ACCOMPLISHED IN YOUR BRETHREN THAT ARE IN THE WORLD. 10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you PERFECT, STABLISH, STRENGTHEN, SETTLE you. 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” 1 Peter 5:7-11.

“For God is not UNRIGHTEOUS (UNFAITHFUL, UNGRATEFUL) to forget your WORK and LABOUR of love, which ye have SHEWED toward his name, in that ye have MINISTERED to the saints, and DO MINISTER. 11 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same DILIGENCE to the FULL ASSURANCE of hope unto the end: 12 that ye be not SLOTHFUL, but FOLLOWERS of them who through FAITH and PATIENCE INHERIT THE PROMISES” Hebrews 6:10-12/Emphasis Mine.

“Let us HOLD FAST the PROFESSION of our FAITH without wavering; (for He is FAITHFUL that promised;) . . . 35 Cast Not Away therefore your CONFIDENCE, which hath great recompence of reward. 36 For ye have need of PATIENCE, that, after ye have done the WILL of God, ye might RECEIVE the promise. 37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry. 38 Now the just shall LIVE by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. 39 But we are not of them who DRAW BACK unto PERDITION; but of them that BELIEVE to the SAVING of the soul” Hebrews 10:23, 35-39.

DON’T JUST GIVE UP BASED ON YOUR HEALTH DETAILS

DON’T JUST GIVE UP BASED ON YOUR HEALTH DETAILS: PRAYERS CHANGES THINGS – YOU CAN LIVE AGAIN!
 
“Beloved, I wish ABOVE ALL THINGS that thou mayest PROSPER and BE IN HEALTH, even as thy SOUL PROSPERETH” 3 John 1:2.
 
“Beloved, I pray that in every way you may SUCCEED and PROSPER and be in GOOD HEALTH [PHYSICALLY], just as [I know] your soul PROSPERS [SPIRITUALLY]” 3 John 1:2/AMP.
 
Don’t let your worlds come down before you when it’s within you to make the difference and change your dearly need. You can create the desired atmosphere you wants to see and enjoy in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS, through making your own PRAYER WALL relevant with you toward God and toward Christ, by the Holy Spirit on the Word of God, and by Faith in the grace, as in your rights and privileges in REDEMPTION, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
 
“Therefore, since we have been JUSTIFIED [that is, acquitted of sin, declared blameless before God] BY FAITH, [let us grasp the fact that] we have PEACE with God [and the joy of RECONCILIATION with Him] through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed). 2 Through Him we also have ACCESS BY FAITH into this [remarkable state of] GRACE in which we [firmly and safely and securely] STAND. Let us rejoice in our hope and the confident assurance of [experiencing and enjoying] the glory of [our great] God [the manifestation of His excellence and power]” Romans 5:1-2/AMP.
 
It’s time to TURN OFF any form or platform of DISTRACTIONS, then raise your PRAYER WALL and TURN YOUR FACE TOWARD God and TOWARD Christ Jesus, in your REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus, for an ANSWER to your QUEST.
 
“And how I kept back nothing that was PROFITABLE unto you, but have shewed you, and have taught you publickly, and from house to house, 21 TESTIFYING both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance TOWARD God, and faith TOWARD our Lord Jesus Christ” Acts 20:20-21.
 
If Hezekiah could change the COURSE of his HEALTH sentence history that was certified unto death, and that of his City curse and REVERSE the eclipse of Sun that was once held back by Joshua, through PRAYER WALL, in turning off from human limitations and distraction, and turning toward God for an ANSWER, you can [Joshua 10:12-14]. I say you can because I know He’s the same God yesterday, today and tomorrow. Amen. [Hebrews 13:8]. HE NEVER FAILS ME YET GOD, is who, whom, how, when, where and what I call Him. I have SEEN and EXPERIENCED and keep EXPERIENCING Him again and again, and He does things and keep doing awesome things now and always. Your case can’t make a difference to Him at all for Him to resolve it speedily if you let Him. And He will ANSWER you indeed. Amen.
 
“And said, If thou wilt DILIGENTLY hearken to the VOICE of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is RIGHT in his sight, and wilt give EAR to his commandments, and KEEP all his statutes, I will put NONE OF THESE DISEASES upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: FOR I AM THE LORD THAT HEALETH THEE” Exodus 15:26.
 
“And ye shall SERVE the Lord your God, and he shall BLESS thy bread, and thy water; and I will take SICKNESS away from the MIDST of thee. 26 There shall NOTHING CAST THEIR YOUNG, NOR BE BARREN, in thy land: the NUMBER OF THY DAYS I WILL FULFIL” Exodus 23:25-26.
 
Give it a go today – even now. Don’t give up. Don’t faint. Don’t go weary. Don’t submit to that deadly medical report. Take it up with God in Christ Jesus stead on your PRAYER WALL as Hezekiah did in his DISTRESS and FAILING CIRCUMSTANCE.
 
You can MAKE your difference, by the HOW TO DO IT as Hezekiah did – making and using your own – PRAYER WALL.
 
May God’s enabling grace and BLESSEDNESS abound with you accordingly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
 
SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!
 
SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:
 
“In those days was Hezekiah SICK UNTO DEATH. And Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came unto him, and said unto him, THUS SAITH THE LORD, SET THINE HOUSE IN ORDER: FOR THOU SHALT DIE, AND NOT LIVE. 2 Then Hezekiah TURNED HIS FACE TOWARD THE WALL, and PRAYED unto the Lord, 3 and said, REMEMBER now, O Lord, I beseech thee, how I have WALKED before thee IN TRUTH and with a PERFECT HEART, and have DONE THAT WHICH IS GOOD IN THY SIGHT. And Hezekiah WEPT SORE. 4 Then came the word of the Lord to Isaiah, saying, 5 Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith the Lord, the God of David thy father, I HAVE HEARD THY PRAYER, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will ADD unto thy DAYS fifteen years. 6 And I will DELIVER thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria: and I will DEFEND this city. 7 And this shall be a SIGN unto thee from the Lord, that the Lord will do this thing that he hath spoken; 8 behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So the sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone down” Isaiah 38:1-8 [Parallel Scriptures: (2 Kings 20:1-11; 2 Chronicles 32:24-30)].
 
“Then spake Joshua to the Lord in the day when the Lord DELIVERED up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, STAND THOU STILL upon Gibeon; AND THOU, MOON, in the valley of Ajalon. 13 And THE SUN STOOD STILL, and THE MOON STAYED, until the people had AVENGED themselves upon their ENEMIES. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day. 14 And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the Lord hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the Lord fought for Israel” Joshua 10:12-14.

TOUGH TIMES NEVER LAST FOR EVER

TOUGH TIMES NEVER LAST FOR EVER: THE TOUGH IN FAITH WILL ALWAYS KEEP ON KEEPING ON – EVEN WHEN ALL THINGS COMES TO A HALT!

“Dear brothers, is your life FULL OF DIFFICULTIES and TEMPTATIONS? Then be HAPPY, 3 for when the way is ROUGH, your PATIENCE has a chance to GROW. 4 So let it GROW, and don’t try to SQUIRM OUT of your problems. For when your PATIENCE is finally in FULL BLOOM, then you will be READY for anything, STRONG IN CHARACTER, FULL AND COMPLETE” James 1:2-4 (Living Bible TLB).

Sometimes doing life by the book, and the right things as expected in all goodness, may seems to be unfair in some or many occasions; and getting the expected helps to ensure that the good decisions that one have made or to make in order to accomplish the intended plans, purposes and pursuits seems unfounded or eluded. I know the feelings and understand such circumstances. And if that’s your circumstances, God is good and faithful, true and sure to answer you in all MATTERS in His grace and BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

However, no matter how unfair doing life and doing the right things may seems to you today, know full well that God will eventually meet you at the point of you need, FOR TOUGH TIMES NEVER LAST FOREVER; and as long as you keep on keeping up in Faith, and as one that has a trusting spirit on God’s faithfulness and to His promises, there’s going to be an ANSWER.

Know full well and assured, that every challenges has an appointed time, that is – an end game time and date set to it under the sun no matter how long it last or stays; the Holy Writ indicates that – the expectations of the one who keeps on keeping up to maintain a right standing with God in trial times will not be cut off as written:

“For SURELY there is an END; and thine EXPECTATION shall not be CUT OFF” Proverbs 23:8.

When you are assured and insured as the Patriarch Abraham in God’s faithfulness to His promises, there will be hope against hope, and your tough times will never last forever; more so, God’s divine intervention will cause all things to work together for your good, happiness and peace. So did God to His promise to Abraham. All things eventually came together to a perfect, complete and whole answers to all expectations of God.

“And we know that ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose” Romans 8:28.

“. . . I have made you a FATHER OF MANY NATIONS, BEFORE WHOM HE BELIEVED, even God . . . Who (Abraham) AGAINST HOPE BELIEVED IN HOPE, that he might be a father of many nations . . . being FULLY PERSUADED that, what He (God) had promised, He was ABLE also to PERFORM . . .” Romans 4:17-25.

So today, no matter how much you’ve war to do the right things and the journey seems long or or longer, you need to keep on keeping up in faith. For faith is the VICTORY to overcome all trials of your journey in order to thrive and be more than conquerors over the world system of doing life that has stood in your path of progress and success. Faith, which is the corresponding action on what you believe on God’s WORD will surely locate you with your expectations as written:

“For WHATSOEVER is BORN of God OVERCOMETH the world: and this is the VICTORY that OVERCOMETH the world, even our FAITH. 5 Who is he that OVERCOMETH the world, but he that BELIEVETH that Jesus is the Son of God?” 1 John 5:4-5.

THERE MAY BE TOUGH TIMES – BUT TOUGH TIMES NEVER LAST FOR EVER. THE TOUGH IN FAITH WILL ALWAYS KEEP ON KEEPING ON, EVEN WHEN ALL THINGS COMES TO A HALT.

I pray that our good and faithful, true and sure God, will keep you in grace and strengthen you courageously and keep you keeping on in faith, in Christ Jesus stead – until your BLESSEDNESS in Him is actualised meaningfully and purposefully.

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“Consider it nothing but joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you fall into various trials. 3 Be assured that the testing of your faith [through experience] produces endurance [leading to spiritual maturity, and inner peace]. 4 And let endurance have its perfect result and do a thorough work, so that you may be perfect and completely developed [in your faith], lacking in nothing . . . 12 Blessed [happy, spiritually prosperous, favored by God] is the man who is steadfast under trial and perseveres when tempted; for when he has passed the test and been approved, he will receive the [victor’s] crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him. 13 Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God” [for temptation does not originate from God, but from our own flaws]; for God cannot be tempted by [what is] evil, and He Himself tempts no one. 14 But each one is tempted when he is dragged away, enticed and baited [to commit sin] by his own [worldly] desire (lust, passion)” James 1:2-4, 12-14. (Amplified).

“Therefore let the one who thinks he stands firm [immune to temptation, being overconfident and self-righteous], take care that he does not fall [into sin and condemnation]. 13 No temptation [regardless of its source] has overtaken or enticed you that is not common to human experience [nor is any temptation unusual or beyond human resistance]; but God is faithful [to His word—He is compassionate and trustworthy], and He will not let you be tempted beyond your ability [to resist], but along with the temptation He [has in the past and is now and] will [always] provide the way out as well, so that you will be able to endure it [without yielding, and will overcome temptation with joy]” 1 Corinthians 10:12-3. Amplified.

“CASTING ALL YOUR CARE upon him; for he CARETH for you. 8 Be SOBER, be VIGILANT; because your ADVERSARY the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: 9 whom RESIST STEDFAST in the FAITH, KNOWING THAT THE SAME AFFLICTIONS ARE ACCOMPLISHED IN YOUR BRETHREN THAT ARE IN THE WORLD. 10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you PERFECT, STABLISH, STRENGTHEN, SETTLE you. 11 To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen” 1 Peter 5:7-11.

“For God is not UNRIGHTEOUS (UNFAITHFUL, UNGRATEFUL) to forget your WORK and LABOUR of love, which ye have SHEWED toward his name, in that ye have MINISTERED to the saints, and DO MINISTER. 11 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same DILIGENCE to the FULL ASSURANCE of hope unto the end: 12 that ye be not SLOTHFUL, but FOLLOWERS of them who through FAITH and PATIENCE INHERIT THE PROMISES” Hebrews 6:10-12 Emphasis Mine.

DON’T JUST GIVE UP BASED ON YOUR HEALTH DETAILS

DON’T JUST GIVE UP BASED ON YOUR HEALTH DETAILS: PRAYERS CHANGES THINGS – YOU CAN LIVE AGAIN!

“Beloved, I wish ABOVE ALL THINGS that thou mayest PROSPER and BE IN HEALTH, even as thy SOUL PROSPERETH” 3 John 1:2.

“Beloved, I pray that in every way you may SUCCEED and PROSPER and be in GOOD HEALTH [PHYSICALLY], just as [I know] your soul PROSPERS [SPIRITUALLY]” 3 John 1:2/AMP

Don’t let your worlds come down before you when it’s within you to make the difference and change your dearly need. You can create the desired atmosphere you wants to see and enjoy in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS, through making your own PRAYER WALL relevant with you toward God and toward Christ, by the Holy Spirit on the Word of God, and by Faith in the grace, as in your rights and privileges in REDEMPTION, in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“Therefore, since we have been JUSTIFIED [that is, acquitted of sin, declared blameless before God] BY FAITH, [let us grasp the fact that] we have PEACE with God [and the joy of RECONCILIATION with Him] through our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed). 2 Through Him we also have ACCESS BY FAITH into this [remarkable state of] GRACE in which we [firmly and safely and securely] STAND. Let us rejoice in our hope and the confident assurance of [experiencing and enjoying] the glory of [our great] God [the manifestation of His excellence and power]” Romans 5:1-2/AMP.

It’s time to TURN OFF any form or platform of DISTRACTIONS, then raise your PRAYER WALL and TURN YOUR FACE TOWARD God and TOWARD Christ Jesus, in your REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus, for an ANSWER to your QUEST.

“And how I kept back nothing that was PROFITABLE unto you, but have shewed you, and have taught you publicly, and from house to house, 21 TESTIFYING both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance TOWARD God, and faith TOWARD our Lord Jesus Christ” Acts 20:20-21.

If Hezekiah could change the COURSE of his HEALTH sentence history that was certified unto death, and that of his City curse and REVERSE the eclipse of Sun that was once held back by Joshua, through PRAYER WALL, in turning off from human limitations and distraction, and turning toward God for an ANSWER, you can [Joshua 10:12-14]. I say you can because I know He’s the same God yesterday, today and tomorrow. Amen. [Hebrews 13:8]. HE NEVER FAILS ME YET GOD, is who, whom, how, when, where and what I call Him. I have SEEN and EXPERIENCED and keep EXPERIENCING Him again and again, and He does things and keep doing awesome things now and always. Your case can’t make a difference to Him at all for Him to resolve it speedily if you let Him. And He will ANSWER you indeed. Amen.

“And said, If thou wilt DILIGENTLY hearken to the VOICE of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is RIGHT in his sight, and wilt give EAR to his commandments, and KEEP all his statutes, I will put NONE OF THESE DISEASES upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: FOR I AM THE LORD THAT HEALETH THEE” Exodus 15:26.

“And ye shall SERVE the Lord your God, and he shall BLESS thy bread, and thy water; and I will take SICKNESS away from the MIDST of thee. 26 There shall NOTHING CAST THEIR YOUNG, NOR BE BARREN, in thy land: the NUMBER OF THY DAYS I WILL FULFIL” Exodus 23:25-26.

Give it a go today – even now. Don’t give up. Don’t faint. Don’t go weary. Don’t submit to that deadly medical report. Take it up with God in Christ Jesus stead on your PRAYER WALL as Hezekiah did in his DISTRESS and FAILING CIRCUMSTANCE.

You can MAKE your difference, by the HOW TO DO IT as Hezekiah did – making and using your own – PRAYER WALL.

May God’s enabling grace and BLESSEDNESS abound with you accordingly in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK!

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:

“In those days was Hezekiah SICK UNTO DEATH. And Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz came unto him, and said unto him, THUS SAITH THE LORD, SET THINE HOUSE IN ORDER: FOR THOU SHALT DIE, AND NOT LIVE. 2 Then Hezekiah TURNED HIS FACE TOWARD THE WALL, and PRAYED unto the Lord, 3 and said, REMEMBER now, O Lord, I beseech thee, how I have WALKED before thee IN TRUTH and with a PERFECT HEART, and have DONE THAT WHICH IS GOOD IN THY SIGHT. And Hezekiah WEPT SORE. 4 Then came the word of the Lord to Isaiah, saying, 5 Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus saith the Lord, the God of David thy father, I HAVE HEARD THY PRAYER, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will ADD unto thy DAYS fifteen years. 6 And I will DELIVER thee and this city out of the hand of the king of Assyria: and I will DEFEND this city. 7 And this shall be a SIGN unto thee from the Lord, that the Lord will do this thing that he hath spoken; 8 behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down in the sun dial of Ahaz, ten degrees backward. So the sun returned ten degrees, by which degrees it was gone down” Isaiah 38:1-8 [Parallel Scriptures: (2 Kings 20:1-11; 2 Chronicles 32:24-30)].

“Then spake Joshua to the Lord in the day when the Lord DELIVERED up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun, STAND THOU STILL upon Gibeon; AND THOU, MOON, in the valley of Ajalon. 13 And THE SUN STOOD STILL, and THE MOON STAYED, until the people had AVENGED themselves upon their ENEMIES. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day. 14 And there was no day like that before it or after it, that the Lord hearkened unto the voice of a man: for the Lord fought for Israel” Joshua 10:12-14.

“So the Lord BLESSED the LATTER end of Job more than his BEGINNING: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses” Job 42:12.

“For I know the PLANS and THOUGHTS that I have for you,’ says the Lord, ‘PLANS for PEACE and WELL-BEING and not for DISASTER, to give you a FUTURE and a HOPE” Jeremiah 29:11.

Praise the Lord” Psalms 115:9-18.
