First and second

First  - It’s been busy. I am used to blogging early morning, but sometimes I find myself so tired to wake up early and the only energy left is for my me-time with God and there are also day when I am catching up on some unfinished assignment from the previous day.

One thing that I have truly tried to keep up with is my time with God. That remains a constant and I would encourage all Mums to do the same. No matter how busy it gets, God first and all the other things will sort themselves.

In one of those moments, I was having a one on one conversation with God, you know how you look at your diary and just wonder where to start, the Lord spoke to me so clearly, He said “This is my day, I made it and i have only asked you to rejoice in it! – That was fresh! That message sank home, when we say that this is the day that the Lord has made, we are actually saying that this is His day given to us.  So no matter how it looks, there is grace and His demand on us is that we rejoice in it! 

So I hope you are rejoicing every day, it the Lords! 

 

Secondly – Have you ever imagined how it is to have a fully equipped solder in battle but not fighting back? A month ago, I cried out to God and ask pleaded for His mercy over a situation in my life – this was the reply – “Use the Sword”. Okay, then the Lord allowed me to see myself, as a well equipped solder, tucked somewhere in corner, but instead of fighting back, am literary  freaked out and just crying out God Help, help, help! 

So the enemy is busy attacking, as much as he cannot harm (because I am protected), I am behaving helpless, desperate, oppressed! Well, guess what, THE WORD!!!!!!!!! This is the sword! This is what we use to get on the offensive! You start fighting back; the enemy flees…use the Sword, take ground, your ground, your promises, your place, your family, your children!!!!!
