How strong is your loyalty towards God?

I read an article today regarding loyalty and it made me think about our loyalty towards God.

Can we really say that we are truly loyal to God?

Luke 22 : 34

³⁴ Jesus answered, “I tell you, Peter, before the rooster crows today, you will deny three times that you know me.”

Peter did not agree with Jesus, yet he ended up disowning Him three times before the rooster crowed.

This makes me wonder…  Peter was in the presence of Jesus, saw Him doing miracles but still managed to deny Him.  Won’t it be easier for us to deny Him then?  We have never physically met Jesus or see Him do miracles.

It’s easy to say, I love Jesus and I will die for Him, but will we really?  Will you choose Jesus ( Whom you have never even met in person) above your spouse, baby boy (I’m a dad now) or daughter?  Let’s say the government says you need to accept a certain mark on your body in order to trade ( buy groceries etc) and you know that it might be the mark of the beast.  Will you trust in Jesus to provide food for your 6 month old baby or will you accept the mark in order to provide essential nutrients to your growing baby?

I’ve never thought of it in this much detail.. have you?

My loyalty for God is at the top of my list.  And I have the faith to trust in Jesus to provide. His proven it over and over…

Will you?

http://bible.com/116/eph.4.31-32.nlt Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, and slander, as well as all types of evil behavior. Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you.

God is with us

http://bible.com/116/1pe.5.10.nlt In his kindness God called you to share in his eternal glory by means of Christ Jesus. So after you have suffered a little while, he will restore, support, and strengthen you, and he will place you on a firm foundation.

My timing is perfect

Remember that I am God of justice, says the Lord. As you wait for my intervention in your circumstances, know that I have not forgotten you. Though it seems like I am late, remember Lazarus, how I came to resurrect him four days after he had died. Although it seemed too late in the natural, my timing was perfect, and I am the same yesterday, today and forever! I don’t overlook my children and I don’t turn a blind eye to injustice.

Thank me for my perfect timing today. Thank me for my justice and watch what I am about to do in your life, says the Lord.

Psalm 25:3
Indeed none of those who wait for you will be ashamed; those who deal treacherously without cause will be ashamed.

Psalm 89:14
Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne; loving kindness and truth go before you.

Protection found in God

http://bible.com/116/psa.91.1-16.nlt Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty. This I declare about the lord : He alone is my refuge, my place of safety; he is my God, and I trust him. For he will rescue you from every trap and protect you from deadly disease. He will cover you with his feathers. He will shelter you with his wings. His faithful promises are your armor and protection. Do not be afraid of the terrors of the night, nor the arrow that flies in the day. Do not dread the disease that stalks in darkness, nor the disaster that strikes at midday. Though a thousand fall at your side, though ten thousand are dying around you, these evils will not touch you. Just open your eyes, and see how the wicked are punished. If you make the lord your refuge, if you make the Most High your shelter, no evil will conquer you; no plague will come near your home. For he will order his angels to protect you wherever you go. They will hold you up with their hands so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone. You will trample upon lions and cobras; you will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet! The lord says, “I will rescue those who love me. I will protect those who trust in my name. When they call on me, I will answer; I will be with them in trouble. I will rescue and honor them. I will reward them with a long life and give them my salvation.”

God determines The path

Judges 6: 14-16:

¹⁴ Then the Lord turned to him and said, “Go with the strength you have, and rescue Israel from the Midianites. I am sending you!”

¹⁵ “But Lord,” Gideon replied, “how can I rescue Israel? My clan is the weakest in the whole tribe of Manasseh, and I am the least in my entire family!”

¹⁶ The Lord said to him, “I will be with you. And you will destroy the Midianites as if you were fighting against one man.”

 

Do not be afraid:

If you read the above paragraph you will notice that Gideon did not believe in himself.  God instructed him to rescue Israel, but he questioned God’s will, saying that his the weakest man of a weak clan… How often do we question God’s will in our lives?  Always thinking that we are not good enough to achieve something?  Well, I believe that God wouldn’t open a door if it was not meant to be open…  We are His children and He does not want any harm to come to us, only achievements and lessons that end up letting us grow into more mature, stronger Christians.

God then told him that he would not be alone on this journey and that God will make it so easy that it would be as if he fought against one man… Our fears and problems are very small to God, there’s nothing we need to worry about if we trust in God to be with us every step of the way.

Resisting the past

We need to resist the desire to settle in the past.  God wants more for us.  Settling in splendor requires not settling.

With all this said, one needs to stay grateful for what you’ve achieved and what you have, this enables you to look forward and not ponder about the past.  If you have sinned and that’s the reason why you are struggling to more forward and grow with God, know that He sent His only Son to die on the cross for all our sins.  The more people started sinning the more abundant God’s grace became.  You are forgiven for sins committed and sins that are yet to be committed.

Know God’s will:

It’s important to spend time asking God to reveal to you what His will is for your life.  If one knows what God wants to do, it becomes easier to focus on it and notice the progress.  No matter who your are, where you come from, what you have done in your past…God created you for a reason, even if it’s for something very small in our eyes, we need to know that it’s part of a bigger plan that God has for His people…

 

Have a blessed evening.  May God’s Armour be over you all Ephesians 6: 11-18

 

 

David and Goliath

This was a sermon at our church last Sunday.  It meant allot to me and I thought that I should share it with others…

Please go read the following thoroughly:

1 Samuel: 17-50

Just like David, we face giants in our lives almost everyday.  And most of the time we try to fight them on our own… just like some warriors would with their sword or javelin…

Sometimes you go around asking for advice from other people and they end up giving you negative advice or discouraging you from going forward… David was told off by his brother Eliab and King Saul, but he was persistent to go forward and conquer the giant in front of him…

You will notice he never got angry or frustrated with them, but carried on motivating why he should do it… This is how we should be, if someone tells you off, you shouldn’t get frustrated or angry with them for they do not always know the reason why God allowed you to get into the situation (Please note that God doesn’t cause the giants, but He allows it as He knows that you will benefit from it), but carry on looking for ways to go forward and conquer your giant.

David did not go out and fight the giant on his own, he went knowing through faith that God will be victorious over the giant, and he proclaimed it to the giant.  We need to proclaim the power of God when we take on the giants in our lives, this gives glory to God and signifies His existence.

Never be afraid or lose faith in God, just always remember, no matter how big the giant may be, God is bigger… Giants always have a weakness, God is perfect and does not have any weaknesses…

David, a young man, with no armour, sword or shield triumphed over Goliath a strong, tall, experienced champion of war with only a sling, stone and faith.  Now that tells you that God will always be there with us, we just need to believe and ask God for assistance.

 

I trust this will mean as much to you as it does for me!

 

Have a blessed evening !

Glasgow Prophetic Post – 2014/04/14

Experience God’s love Romans 8:38-39 For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Do you not know that nothing can separate you from my love? But I would have you position yourself to receive and experience and encounter the fullness of my love and everything that flows out of my love for you. So come away with me, turn aside with me and experience and know, experientially, the boundless infinitude of my love. Song of Solomon 8:7 Many waters cannot quench love, nor will rivers overflow it

You belong to God

http://bible.com/116/1JN4.4.NLT But you belong to God, my dear children. You have already won a victory over those people, because the Spirit who lives in you is greater than the spirit who lives in the world.
