LORD, I am asking for a Bigger Dream

Genesis 37: 9 ESV “Then he dreamed another dream and told it to his brothers and said, “Behold, I have dreamed another dream. Behold, the sun, the moon, and eleven stars were bowing down to me.”” Today, I want to ask the LORD, my God to show me the way forward. I also want to ask HIM for a vision for my own life. I also feel I want to ask God for a bigger dream. When reading about Joseph I came to realise that he dreamed a dream and then another dream only bigger. What are my dreams currently? Well, I wrote Daily Devotional Ebenezer and I am pushing for sales. Something that weighed heavy on my heart. I also started baking and I have become quite good but I am not an expert yet. I would like to start up my own company but I feel I need wisdom, understanding and insight. I also want guidance and help. God placed Joseph in difficult positions and his character was tested on numerous occasions. Joseph stood the tests and came out on the other side a better person...

When you face impossible odds

Add caption Genesis 18: 14 ESV “Is anything too hard for the LORD? At the appointed time I will return to you, about this time next year, and Sarah shall have a son.” I feel like I am facing impossible odds right now. I am a contract worker and I would like to work but the odds are stacked against me. Today, I heard that there might be a possibility to extend my contract. It has been my prayer for as long as I have been freelancing here that the Lord is in control and I will work here as long as He has decided. I feel that because I believe in the Lord, Jesus Christ, I can ask Him to stand in the gap for me. I believe that I am going to continue with my contract and when the time is right I will be where the Lord, Jesus Christ wants me. Are you facing impossible odds right now? Do you feel your finances are not making it? Are you worried about your health?  What about your relationships? Do you feel things aren't going to work out? This challenge of not w...

Jeremiah 29: 11 ESV “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.” I hear people saying I just need to win the “jackpot” I will be set for life, it’s just one little thing. Be honest the only one little thing we truly need is the Word (Bible) and a living relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. As I think about this scripture I want to focus on the fact that the LORD declares, He has plans for my welfare and not for evil, that He has a future and hope in place for me. I know I need to stand on His Word and I do. I will not fear because fear comes from the devil. I accept and agree with this declaration today God LORD, You declared that YOU have plans for my welfare and not for evil. I have a future and a hope. Now please show me the way forward in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ. Amen THE Word for Today : Jeremiah 29 : 12 – 13 , “Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I ...

Lord, Jesus my Hope and Confidence is in YOU.

Lamentations 3: 24 ESV “The LORD is my portion, says my soul, therefore I will hope in HIM.” Good morning, let’s raise up a Hallelujah this morning and sing praise to the LORD for He is our portion. We hope in Him. Let’s praise the LORD our God. LORD, You gives us wisdom and insight and understanding. LORD, You are our portion and You show us the way. LORD, I want to raise up a Hallelujah this morning to praise YOU. You are my wisdom and my righteousness; I want to glory in YOU LORD. LORD this morning I want to raise up Hallelujah to YOU. Hallelujah, You are my God, You are my Alpha and Omega. LORD my soul cries out to YOU today, I praise You. I want to worship You, Holy Spirit gives me the necessary words to praise God. I love You, Lord Jesus. Thank You, Lord, for giving me the mind of Christ. As John says “If God is all I have, I have all I need.” LORD, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah I raise my praise to YOU this morning. You are my Savior and I want to confi...

2019 – My dreams will come true

Philippians 4: 11 – 13 ESV Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. I can do all things through him who strengthens me. This year is all about embracing God and His Word. Today I want to also tell you about all my dreams and hopes. I love baking and I started about 7 years ago, I have become quite good at it, but I do want to improve. My dream is to be the best baker possible. I want to go overseas and visit my brother who stays in Australia. I need mega bucks to get there – my challenge is finances. I am baking as much as I can and the profit isn’t that much. Then, of course, I wrote Daily Devotions Ebenezer. I am hoping and praying that my book will sell this year. Last year was a slow year. I know that I am an unknown and people aren’t so into “invisi...

Hello 2019

This year is all about embracing what God makes special in you. Everything that makes you so unique. It's this year we are going to become focused. Psalm 5: 3 (ESV) O LORD, in the morning you hear my voice; in the morning I prepare a sacrifice for you and watch. It's time to say "Lord, here I am and Lord, I am ready!" I want to focus all my time and energy on God. I want to be purpose driven. I am planning on only expecting good things to come my way. I am declaring "I am expecting good things in my life, good thoughts and good behaviour." I am looking forward to supernatural favour in my life with God and with people. I am going to do good things because is doing good things in my own life. I am the righteousness of God in Christ. Today I am going to do my best job now. Not as for people but as for God. I am going to use every opportunity in my life as an opportunity for growth. I may slip up at times but I am going to win in the end. I...

In Prayer, We draw Closer to God

1 Thessalonians 5: 17 – 18 NIV “pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” I have been ready a lot about the different ways to pray and how I can draw closer to God. My daughter sent me a book about prayer. P = praise God, R = repent, A = asking, Y = yes. I wonder how much time I truly spend in praising God? I doubt my praising is as much as my asking. I have come to realize that I will praise God and then start asking for specific things I need. I want to change my way of praying because I want to draw near to God through prayer. When I wake up in the morning there first thing I do is say good morning to God. I have been granted a new day and His mercies are new every day. It struck me that I have a negative sense about me and when I wake up I would be condemning myself even when I haven’t even gotten up out of bed. I thought about this and decided this is nonsense, I am the righteousness of God in Christ. ...
