WALKING AND WORKING WITH GOD

 

When we were much younger I mean when we were between the ages 1-2, I can boldly say that all children walking at this age will be guided by their parents as it is expected that such cannot be left alone to walk, and do so many activities on their own due to their imperfection and inability even in the way they walk.

Talking about working, it is a continuous practice which we engage in and we are mostly being paid for or not. So, walking and working with God means the ability to journey with the Father uprightly in our earthly race. I mean the capability to be led to perfection by the Ancient one just as the way the  toddler will be guided as a result of his/her imperfection. No wonder what God told Abraham in ( Gen 17:1).

Furthermore, working with God simply means performing some self-service to the Father it could be in joining a unit in the church of God in order to function for Abba without expecting any wage or returns. This is absolutely nice but a very quick question is that as much as we are working with the father are we also walking with Him?  He told Abraham plainly in the books of ( Gen 17:1) "Walk before me and be ye perfect ". The moment we begin to see ourselves as toddlers in the sight of the One who sits on the circle of the world, it gets easier to surrender ourselves for a nice work and walk with Him.

Remember when  a toddler takes a wrong step, he/she would be corrected by his/her parents this is more like what happens to us when we decide to work and walk with the Father, as He begins to nurture us and ensure we do not take the wrong steps. There are some promises for those who walk uprightly with the Father even as they work with Him (Isaiah 35: 15-16) . Reading through ( col 1: 10) we would see Paul's epistle to the Colossians  admonishing them to walk worthy of the Lord and being fruitful in every works committed in their hands.

In conclusion, we should understand that as children of God we should work as well as walk uprightly in his commandments for it is highly needed of us.

PRAYER POINT: Abba, the ability to work with you and also walk with you always you grant unto me. AMEN!!!

FUEL IT UP!!!

 When I was in primary school I was part of the girls guide. we usually go for weekend camping in any agreed location and I remember that whenever we were at camp, we always have the camp fire at night and everyone will be dancing around it. Whenever the fire goes down, we will put leaves and some other petrochemical substances to enable it burn well. Going through the books of Mathew 25, the story of the 10 virgins ignited a spark in me and I realized instantly that to keep anything burning, we need substances to fuel it up just as we did at the camp whenever the camp fire goes down. Also, most of us have generators in our various homes and I can imagine how much we would feel helpless when we cannot get fuel to power our generators especially when we have a very interesting show coming up or a football match and the electricity distribution company decided to keep the light off. Brethren, reading through Mathew 25: 1-13, we would have a better understanding of what it means to fuel u

BEHIND THE SCENES

 If someone wants to write and pass an examination, I want to believe that a successful candidate will want to ensure that no stone is left to guarantee such individual's success. I remembered a scenario I found myself during my final examination. You know that euphoria of "I am now a finalist" did grip me and I failed to prepare adequately before the final examination day and the funniest part was I was trusting in seat formation as we always say then in Uni as I believed that if I could have a good seat arrangement I would tap from my colleagues who were more knowledgeable. Behold, a very strict invigilator was in attendance that fateful day and the whole plan was distorted. Remembering this issue and going through the books of Esther, Daniel and 2nd Chronicles gave me a deeper understanding of the three words "Behind the Scenes". What does this even mean scripturally? Before I give a definition I would like to make another illustration to buttress my earlier

The Price of Destiny

                              In General terms, the price attached to a product or service is the value of such product or service. This explains why priority is placed on some products or services than the other. The fluctuation in exchange rate of different countries to another gives a deeper understanding of the value attached to different country's currencies. The economists say the price of a commodity confers value on such commodity. A person with a thousand dollar undoubtedly has more purchasing power than another with a thousand naira.  Speaking of what the price of destiny means, we can say it is the value of destiny, the sacrifice needed to pay before attaining a glorious destiny.When I mean sacrifice this is not some sort of ritual but what we have to let go or put in place to attain our glorious destinies because as children of God, we all are entitled to glorious destinies as this is His will for us all. Let's have a quick look at those who paid the price for their
