Wisdom Nuggets for Today

"Men go abroad to wonder at the heights of mountains, at the huge waves of the sea, at the long courses of the rivers, at the vast compass of the ocean, at the circular motions of the stars, and they pass by themselves without wondering."- Saint Augustine

"For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well."- Psalm 139:13&14

Finishing Strong

By Max Lucado

Remain. Hang in there. Finish. Stick to it until it is done. 
Unfortunately, very few of us do that. Our human tendency is to quit too soon.

Our human tendency is to stop before we cross the finish line. Our inability to finish what we start is seen in the smallest of things:

A partly mowed lawn. A half-read book. Letters begun but never completed.
An abandoned diet. A car up on blocks.

Or, it shows up in life's most painful areas:

Hallelujah! He is Alive for Ever

"Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; He has risen! Remember how he told you,...: The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, be crucified and on the third day be raised again. Then they remembered his words."- Luke 24:5-7

"But God raised Him from the dead, freeing Him from the agony of death, because it was impossible for death to keep its hold on Him. God has raised this Jesus to life, and we are all witnesses of the fact."- Acts 2:24,32

"And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins. But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead,"- 1 Corinthians 15:17,20

"I am the Living One; I was dead, and behold I am alive for ever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and Hades."- Revelation 1:18

Hallelujah! He is Alive for Ever

The Great Exchange

Let me draw your mind back to the days before the introduction of the money system as a means of exchange for goods and services. There was a system in operation then which was known as the trade by barter system. I was not old enough to be around when this barter system was the means for buying, selling and conducting business transactions in the world. But we learnt from the study of economics that it a type of trade where goods or services are exchanged for a certain amount of other goods or services with no money involved in the transaction.

Over 2,000 years ago a divine deal or transaction took place, there was no money, neither were there good nor services involved in this transaction, but still a divine exchange and a divine swop took place.

Enjoy your day

This picture of me was taken by the inimitably hilarious Jon Cook at the All Nations Centre on Monday.

He called it, the Pic of the Day! I personally dont have any qualms or objection to that- infact it sounds cool. So I decided to post it today.

I will leave you with Jon Cook's favourite phrase: JESUS LOVES YOU.

The Fear of the LORD

During the Sunday morning Church meeting yesterday at All Nations Church, Cardiff, Keri Jones preached on 'The fear of the LORD'. Keri, who is the Apostle over the House preached with great passion and conviction like a father to his children; and like a friend to his friends.

It reminded me of David the Psalmist when he says: "Come, my children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the LORD." Keri practically taught in that manner yesterday and it was really refreshing to the House as God ministered through him.

Moments in Life

In Happy Moment- Praise God
Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise. - James 5:13

In Difficult Moment- Seek God
Then they carried to the Lord in their trouble, and He saved them from their distress.- Psalm 107:19

In Quiet Moment- Worship God
Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.- Psalm 46:10

In Painful Moment- Trust God
I know that my Redeemer lives, and that in the end He will stand upon the earth.- Job 19:25

In Every Moment- Give Him Thanks
Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. - 1 Thessalonians 5:18

April Fool???

Am not out to play any pranks or pull a fast joke on you as lots of people would do today. I am just out to convey the heart of the Loving Father to you. This is therefore not April Fool, it is real. Why not pause for a moment and consider it for what it is- the truth, not a prank, or practical joke or something to wave aside.

"The FOOL says in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, their deeds are vile; The LORD looks down from heaven on the sons of men to see if there are any who understand, any who seek God."- Psalm 14:1&2

If you find yourself in the situation described above, God does not want you to be a fool! Infact He wants you to have a wise and understanding heart, to seek and get to know Him.
