DOES GOD KNOW YOU?

By David Msebele.

Most people seek to be known in social circles, by the church leadership and by the public. We worry so much about public perception and maintaining our reputation but the question is; Does God Know You?

This is a hard question.

Some people know that there is God, just like the devil knows, and trembles. My question today is, Does God know you and if he knows you how well does he know you?

Are you the bad guy who is  selfish, arrogant, unrepentant, uncaring, the unholy one, sinful, iniquitous and you do not know God,

Are you like David, a man after God’s own heart.  Who when he prays, God inclines his ear to hear and answers your prayers, he comes into your situation and open heavens to come down and deal with your problem. 

GOD WANTS YOU TO BE A SUCCESS STORY - PART 1

Br David Msebele

One author once remarked “God is not an author of failure”.  Some people have come to worship, glorify and accept failure as their lot. They accept failure as their destiny – a kind of God plan for them.  Failure is taken as humility. Poverty which is symptomatic of failure is accepted as humility.  After all we cannot all succeed, some people have to succeed while others must fail, so goes the argument. 

The justification for failure is given biblical sense when it is argued that Jesus said “the poor we shall always have”.Having searched the scriptures I am puzzled at the acceptance of poverty, failure, sickness and all symptoms and manifestations of failure. To start with God loved man and that is why He created him. God in His infinite wisdom and love created man “in His image, and likeness”. He gave him power and dominion over the whole earth.  God, admired the man he had created and concluded that his creation was good.

When one has dominion over a thing or someone – he exercises great power and control over that thing or person.  Failure is not synonymous with dominion.  When you fail you have no dominion over your situation or circumstance.

When you succeed in whatever you do you are literally and practically fulfilling scripture.  You are exercising dominion over your life. When you exercise dominion you embrace the nature of God

GOD MAKES THE IMPOSSIBLE, POSSIBLE

By Edward Tomola

The turbulence, trials and tribulations in your life may be making you or has made you believe that either God does not exist or if He exists He does not care or does not want to answer you.

Your problems may be medical.  You have been sick for many days on end, and your doctors continue to give you a negative report.  It may be your family – divorce, no love at home, renegade children or continuous fights and no peace.  It may be your finances – no money for food, clothes or you are in debt and there is no end in sight.  It may be any problem – business, bad dreams, generational curses or problems and the list can be endless.

Jehovah God is able to intervene in your situation. NO weapon that is formed aginst you shall prevail, you are the head and not the tail and greater is He that is in you than the one in your problem! Like Solomon says in Ecclesiates 3, there is nothing new under the sun – some great men and women in the great bible have faced similar, if not worse situations and God has proven faithful – He delivered them all when they prayed to Him in faith and believed his promise.
