hello Bread! Its already the 1st day of school and the 3rd day of a brand new year. As you begin this year, what's going on in your minds? WHo is still as hungry and passionate for God as he/she was 6 months ago? To be completely honest, I became very comfortable and caught up during the Christmas season. Too much cards and too much shopping to do. It had basically taken the most important priority in my life, God.
Right before X'mas itself, the Spirit impressed upon my heart there was something wrong and I couldn't figure it out. think you guys can relate to the period of time when there was so much oppresion and Cheryl clearly spoke in the Spirit that we are getting too distracted. The vision of the fish leaping out of the pond. Jay's vision. Finally when the Xmas day came, there was such a lack in the move of the Spirit. God was gracious enough to give us 13 salvations. I realised I desperately needed to get back with God. Thank God that the next few days, the Holy Spirit enabled me to cry out for God and there was a breakthrough on Wednesday(28th Dec).
How many of us are beginning to feel "sick" of God already? Who is beginning to feel the reason why we weren't able to pray on 31st dec was not the devil but rather because our focal was not on Jesus? I had a prayer meet earlier that day with MAD from 2pm to 3.20pm and the PRESEnce of God was very very tangible. No Joke! Everybody was just spontaneous, praising God at the top of their voices and with overflowing tears of joy!
Let's get back our attention on the cross. The One Guy that loved you SOOO much that He looked at the cross and said I'll do it for you. You deserve God because Jesus did it for you and I. Get back into the relationship that God has called you to. Imagine the GREatest of the Greatest One by your side everyday. ONly because of your relationship with God can people get to know Jesus better. Imagine people getting saved, changed and impacted just by your presence because God has decided to be with you in your house, just pouring out the glory, power and grace and mercy that He has planned for you! Isn't it exciiting?
Begin to be desperate everyday for God's face. Read the Word, pray and Worship God everyday. Your leaders are only given to you by God for the very reason of pointing you to a greater relationship with the ALmighty ONE! Let's look at our present relationship with total honesty and restart on a new adventure to seek the First Love!
