THE MORE GLORIOUS WAYS OF GOD !

 With God , we SCATTER to GATHER. We LOSE to WIN. We DECREASE to INCREASE. That which we LET GO, we KEEP into eternity; by GIVING, we RECEIVE, even more. And when we go QUIET, then we’re HEARD. What a life! Indeed, GOD'S WAYS ARE HIGHER THAN THE WAYS OF MEN ! References: ( Isaiah 55:9, Proverbs 11:24 & Luke 17:33 )

THE SHUNAMITE WOMAN

  She lived in Jezreel, specifically along a road that links Jerusalem to Bethlehem. Being a generous woman, she agreed with her husband and made a resting place on the top of their building for Elisha who mostly plied that road. One day, when the shunamite saw Elisha travelling the road again with his servant she invited them over into her house and showed her kindness so much to the Prophet's satisfaction. Thus, Elisha sought through his servant, Geharzi, to reward her gesture but the woman sharply objected to it. The Prophet then asked his servant if there was any favour he could use his influence with the King of Israel to offer her but the woman would still reject that offer. So he asked Geharzi to suggest a reward for the woman. When the servant mentioned that the woman had no child, Elisha declared that they would have one a year's time from then, which the Lord also fulfilled. When this child died some years later, the woman went laid him in Elisha's room. But God r...

REAPING THE HARVEST

  To everything, there is a season - a time to sow, and a time to reap; the farmer ( sower ) certainly has his time of harvest but until he waters his seeds, rids the wheats of the tares and applies the fertilizer he is not guaranteed a good yield. So also is every other sower. Until harvest time comes, there is always something we must do in order to maximize our yield. Some of these are explained below: 1. Clear the weeds from your field “And the Lord God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it.”—Genesis 2:15, KJV The word translated keep in Hebrew means “to put a hedge of thorns around, to watch over; to guard, protect and safeguard.” When a farmer plants seed in a garden, he doesn’t just walk away and hope for the best. No! He has much to do to protect his crop. And so do you. What can choke your crop? Walking outside of love. This includes unforgiveness, bitterness and strife. So, keep a watch on your heart, pull the “weeds” out by the root...

CAIN

  MEANING OF NAME:   Acquisition, fabrication or possessed.  STORY IN BRIEF: Eldest son of Adam and Eve, the first man to be born naturally, and founder of the family of Kenites (Kenite is called Kain in the Hebrew) The terrible story of Cain proves how quickly man’s fallen nature developed. Soon after that, he became desperately wicked; it was by him Polygamy started.  By calling Cain was an agriculturist, but he was not happy in his calling since he did not fear God. His heart became jealous as he witnessed the happiness of his brother Abel and his favor with God. Ultimately he yielded to his jealous feelings and slew Abel, just as the Jews for envy sought Christ’s death. Because Cain’s heart was destitute of love, his sacrifice had no heart in it and was therefore miserable, worthless and unacceptable to God. “The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord, but the prayer of the upright is His delight.” Cain was right in his desire to bring an offe...

THE LAW OF ATTRACTION

  "...that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we have gazed upon, and our hands have handled,..." John 1:1 If you consider your circle now, you will conclude that friends with whom you have similar personality outnumber those with deferring personality. You should also notice that, often times, you suddenly meet with or receive calls from, those you strongly  think of and long to see. These are manifestations of the Law of Attraction ! " The heart is DEEP beyond all things... " Jeremiah 17:9 Brenton Septuagint Translation. And Psalm 42:7 says DEEP calleth unto DEEP. Equating the two scriptures will help us deduce that, HEART calls unto HEART.  SOUL calls unto SOUL. That is the Spirit of the law - Like attracts LIKE ! Our opening verse starts with HEARING or SEEING and ends with HANDLING. Until a man hears or sees, he cannot handle. Yet, what we finally touch is always LIKE what we already hear and see according to the Law of Attra...

THE EYES OF GOD !


“The eyes of the Lord run to and from through the whole earth.”

Zechariah 4:10.

The Greek name for God is Theos. It comes from the Greek root which makes up the word Theisthai, and that means, ” To see”. So God is the One who sees! God’s eyes refer to the all-knowing, all-seeing limitlessness of God, and yet at the same time His personal, ever-caring nature. Now does He see like men do? The content below exposes the uniqueness of God’s eyes.

Emotional.
God doesn’t only speak or show visions ! He often communicates with His eyes too. God’s eyes help Him to convey His feelings. The eyes He bears on His frowning face differ from those that appear on His smiley face. Now it takes spiritual discernment to ably tell what God says through His eyes at a time. Same eyes that show His displeasure, sadness, or anger now, at a different time may reveal His satisfaction, gladness or mercy. We can tell through His eyes if there’s an impending destruction or honour. We understand from Genesis 6:8 that Noah found favour in His eyes. What do you also find in the eyes of God when He looks at you? ( Ezekiel 7:4, 9; 8:18; 9:10 & Ezekiel 20:17 ).

Functional
It’s interesting noting that just as our parents who are able to guide us with their eyes, God also often leads us by His eyes. Which is why He says in Psalms 32:8, ” I will instruct you and teach you in the way that you should go…” It can be said that as God stares at our enemies with His stern, frightening eyes, they’re kept in check. That way, God safeguards and preserves His servants. Again, it takes only spiritual maturity to aptly descern what God does for us each time He stares at us. Then, we’ll know without necessarily hearing His Voice nor seeing His visions, that He strengthens us, tests us or disapproves of our steps.
( 2 Chronicles 16:9, Deuteronomy 11:12, Psalm 121:3-4, Psalm 11:4 )

Everywhere, Everytime !
Unlike men, God has seven eyes. These ever-opened eyes of God are all over, running and penetrating through the universe. God told Samuel that He does not look at the outward appearance, but the heart of men. Jesus was able to see nothing false in an approaching Nathaniel with whom He had no natural intimate relationship because He had the eyes of God – John 1:47-51. So permeating are God’s eyes that they reach out to the depths ! ( Zech 3:9; Rev 5:6, Prov 15:3 & 1 Samuel 16:7 )

Beloved, in order to secure and maintain these all empowering eyes of God, there’s The need to keep ourselves sanctified.
“For the eyes of The Lord are upon the righteous… ” 1 Peter 3:12. Hallelujah !
