He is ABLE...



As I sat listening to the words
of the song by Deitrick Haddon ;He is Able.
It hit me...did I really believe that he was able
could he really do what he said he could and
even if he could, would He?

By the time the song reached the" don't give up
on God" part I was already in tears.

You know how you have prayed and fasted
believed and confessed and praised in thanskgiving
yet it begins to seem as if God hasn't heard.
You have hoped and trusted but the change still feels a far off,
You have anticipated and expected but yet no sign of manifestation. .

Ah giving up on God can be very subtle O
that unspoken or unexpressed doubt
that little hesitation,
the sigh, that is seen in our expression
The gradual acceptance that oh maybe this is not going to work
maybe it is or is not God's will
yeah..the Maybe's

As I poured out my heart the holy spirit resounded  this to me
Don't give up on God..He is not A man that he should lie
He is Able to do more than you can ask..you are so close to your
miracle don't give up..don't stop hoping...
There is purpose in your pain..
The harder the situation the easier it is for God to step in...

As I let the spirit in..As I allowed his words to soak my heart and mind..
I began to see..
I began to see the Awesomeness of my God..
I was going to continue to hope even against all hope
I  would continue to believe and rejoice.
Like Abraham,I am going to judge God faithful. ..
I am not going to consider the odds that are against me..
I would stay persuaded that what He has promised
He is able to perform...Rom4:18-21.

Thank you holy spirit..need to get some tissue.lol.xxx

It's amazing how God speaks the same word to so many people @ the same time! this is like my 4th confirmation this week...you've just got to believe that He is ABLE cos He really is! we live in times where people are afraid to believe becos there is this myth that the opposite of what you say is what happens. but i choose to believe that God is Able and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him....thumbs up Sis! luv ya much

My Case Is Different...

Shutting my eyes I can vividly remember every time someone has tried to discourage me from launching out or dreaming big based on someone else's experience or failure... sometimes it has been said unconsciously,without even thinking... The moment you mention your intention and desires,there is always someone who is ready with an example of someone else's story... Who says I have to apply 10 times before I get a visa to a foreign country Who says I have to have a god-father before I get that dream job Who says I have to attend 5 interviews and receive 5 rejections before I get the job Who says I have to wait and wait,fall into wrong hands and then learn from my mistakes before I eventually  find my prince charming.. Who says I have to have connections to get ahead in life... My case is different... I am not a statistic...my case is different The fact that it happened to 4 or 6 people you know doesn't mean it would happen to me my c...

I AM NOT DEAD YET

I am not much of the gardening type as much as I love flowers and pot plants, It takes quite a bit of an effort for me to give the flowers and pot plants in my front yard the attention they deserve... but I must admit they add such beauty and charm to my front yard. lately I have just been too pre-occupied with all that has been happening in my life and around me to even notice that I have plants to feed and nurture.. 2 weeks ago I noticed that they had all withered and the leaves were dry,brittle and falling,especially with the summer.. I sighed in regret..if only I wasn't too consumed with myself maybe my lovely front yard would have been preserved. I gave up,maybe it was too late to salvage the situation. I might just try I said to myself and see what difference it makes.. I set out a couple of days ago to water the plants...I had just a small bowl of water.. and as I went back inside to get more water..I got distracted and never got round to fully watering the...

THANKSGIVING..

I have never had to struggle for want of what to write but I have literally spent the past minutes just staring at my screen.... where do I start from is the issue at hand How do I compress the faithfulness of GOD to me in just a post...hmmmm.. I turn 28 today..yet it seems I have been here longer.. I marvel at the quality and the richness of my life.. The wealth of experience and all that God has invested in me... For all his many blessings,For his favour and his Presence  Lord for all these and more..I say thank you I woke up today with gratitude,with a heart full of praise...God has been Good to me.. I take a walk down memory lane and I go back 15 years  to a time when I first accepted Jesus. What I am most grateful for is this decision I made to follow hard after JESUS A lot of times I failed Him,strayed away,messed up,blew my chances But His mercy never ceased and  I kept seeking and running after him.. I have come a long way 15 years later,I still l...
