Kicking fear out of your life


Image result for fear
I'm sitting here at my office, faced with a situation involving a family member that ordinarily should make me terrified, i took a moment to think and realize that i am not afraid, i am not scared and i am not in doubt that it will all end well. I can sense the devil trying to make the feel like i should actually be scared, what if try to creep into my mind, but i find comfort from the word of GOD. ''Perfect love casts out fear'' , ''for we have not been given a spirit of fear but of boldness and sound mind'' , you see years ago if faced with even a less important situation, i would have been fretting, my day ruined etc... no appetite.

 Its amazing how one passage in the bible can change your life, one day i stumbled on this very well known passage. Psalm 55 vs 22 Cast your burden upon the LORD and He will sustain you; He will never allow the righteous to be shaken. Mathew 11:29-30 29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”   I thought so myself, so GOD wants me to drop my burdens at his feet, Jesus wants to take it from me, he also promised that he will not let me be shaken!!!! If after i pray i am still worrying about a problem, did i really leave it at his feet? Doesnt that mean that i am still carrying the burden? That was the turning point in my life, you see worrying doesnt make it better, it just gives more room for doubt and it keeps growing and doubt simply means that i do not believe GOD can solve the problem, it simply means that i dont believe in his power. So these became my worry curing  steps


  • I see myself at the feet of Jesus, i lift the burden and drop it at his feet, and once i drop it, i will not pick it up again. I have let it go, it is no longer my burden it is no longer my worry, it is no longer my problem, it now belongs to Jesus. 
  • My next realization is that there is nothing Jesus cannot solve, he is so big that nothing is a challenge or problem to him. This means that my problems is actually solved. 
  • Step 3 is realising  that the devil is truly a liar and he might try to put more pressure of make it look like its getting worse, he is just a toothless beast, he can do nothing, unless he gets my mind, he needs to get me to pick up that burden again! Once i do thst then i am not back to square 1 but even worse off than i was before, so use this verse 2 Corinthians 10:5New International Version (NIV) We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. I keep saying it and then i go into tongues, and praises. 
  • GOD has NEVER FAILED ME! GOD HAS NEVER FAILED ANYONE! Once i leave it at his feet, it is sorted, it might not happen exactly how i want it or when i want it, but GOD is GOD and he has my best interests at hand.
I hope this is a blessing to someone. 

Shalom!

What does GOD have to do with my workplace?










What does GOD have to do with my workplace? Oh! but everything!! With all the deadlines, challenges, stress and demands, we need GOD to help us out! I know for one that i cant do without GOD in my workplace. He is very much a part of all the process as i am . Years ago, i used to have work related issues a lot, so i knew i was smart, everyone knew, but when it came down to getting the job done,for some reason, i would labour and labour and someone else would get the praise, every single thing that went wrong would go to me. At some point i realized it was time to take this to GOD. 

I discovered this great Psalm 5 v 12 Like a large shield, you surround them with your favor. ... But You, O LORD, are a shield about me, My glory, and the One who lifts my head. Psalm 29:11 this was an eye opener, so it was possible for GODS favour to so surround me that when people looked at me , they would see favour. I also realized something from the story of Ballack and Ballam, Favour doesn't mean that they will like you, it only means that they will do what will work for your own good, whether they like you or not! Hallelujah. I got hold of this verse and put it to work, every morning before i get to work i spend time speaking in tongues and prophesying that  verse to myself, with time i began to see myself covered in favour, you see its one thing to pray but its a totally different thing to see yourself in the totality and truth of the prayers or the prophesy. 

Things didin't change i open day , no of course not, but gradually, ever so gradually things started changing , i started noticing that there definitely was a change in the vibes i was receiving. Then the net step was to examine my work process, my attention to details, i found myself asking GOD what can i do to change, what can i o to change how can i be better at what i do? What is most glorious about yielding to the Holy Spirit is that all of a sudden you will see him show up in every aspect of your life, offering  advice to you and granting you grace and favour that people cannot understand.

With time i started receiving solutions to problem in my dreams, once i get tensed, i know i just need to go to that quiet place and talk to GOd and in no time the answer i was ever so searching for would come to me, this then began to manifest itself in my everyday life, in all the solutions to problems that cropped up and with time people began to see me as a problem solver ans a solution provider. 

So i task you today to get the habit of inviting the Holy Spirit in every single thing that you are doing and you will see a massive change, you will see immense favour begin to work for you in ways you cannot imagine, 

Shalom!

James 4 vs 2-4
It is not everything that you ask God that is good to go before him
You must be kingdom minded
The moment you begin to think about for good then God will begin to work out things for your good.
Stand in the gap for others and don't be selfish.


GO AND SLAY!😀
