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

WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID OF?

Before the novelty of the new year wears off Let me take time to welcome you to 2015 and wish you a great year.. I so love a new year,it is a constant reminder of the Kind of God we serve.. who gives us another opportunity To start again,dream again,run again..regardless of what May or may not have happened in the past year.. Permit me to take a slow ride down memory lane as I look back at the highlight of my year 2014... I must look back so that I can appreciate  from whence God has brought me and where he is taking me to. I must look back lest I take for granted all he has done for me. I must look back so when the enemy comes to lie to me that God hasn't been good I can count my blessings and make My boast in the Lord. 2years ago after the loss of my daughter I found out that there was a 50/50 chance that the next child I conceived  was also going to die. I remember the consultant looking at I and my husband with a very sad face as he told ...

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...

Who is your father?

Who is your father? I remember the first time I travelled to my village without my parents I must have been in primary school and my dearest grandmother of blessed memory insisted my parents brought me over for the weekend. Village life really and truly intrigued me, I loved the simplicity of communal living and how content everyone seemed, food was eaten fresh from the farms, with the large itigidi river providing fresh fish and water, and in the evenings, a dozen children would gather in my granny’s living room to watch a DVD, what was there not to like, for a child living in the city and raised overseas, village life was exciting, refreshing and alluring. That was the first of many visits, the older i got,  my grandmother became the most influential woman in my life, especially as I had lost my mother at age 14. She was wise, inspiring and I picked up my literary prowess from her as she and my mum piqued my interest in books. She would make me write letters to her and...
