An encouragement to those of you who have hit rock bottom: GOD is ABLE

16-23 July 2012

I want to encourage you if you are in a difficult situation and facing conflict in your life. These experiences I write about just do not happen to me in the world, it happens to people who take their stand on the rock-Jesus, who take their relationship with God seriously and still can praise God when they are falling apart. Let me remind you I am 22 years of age, a young lady, although I feel at a ripe old age at times (eye brow up), I do not limit myself. I push through. When you persevere and demand the supernatural you go places in the spiritual realm and the mysteries of God become known to you. I remind myself of Gods promises and that he is my FATHER. I warn Satan when I find him I will give him a few smacks and drop the word of God on his head. Not because of me, I have no power but that resurrected power lives in me and that is Jesus.

I am thinking of my besty Vannessa Govender, when we see Satan taking advantage of Gods people it upsets us and we become violent. This means waging war (Remember the post called A declaration when waging war) for us and we will go to war as Soldiers for Christ (Previous Post called Soldiers for Christ) and in style too.

This is my story and it can be yours to………

I was between a rock and a hard place. I thought I hit rock bottom because everything was going wrong for me, well so my natural mind thought at one point. Teaching practice started on the 16^th of July 2012, I had a problem with my mentor. He scared my insides out (Straight face). I only had my last few South African rands in my sequence black wallet. (Blush face for my bling wallet). My allergies were spreading throughout my body (horrific to imagine). My Microsoft 2010 on my Toshiba laptop went crazy and then I realized I had a trial version and never download it when my besty Nicolan Steffan Govender also known as NS Govender (did I mention he teaches Ns-Natural Science) {bust laughing} insisted I install it. I told him ill do it later, every time he reminded me ill tell him later, later, Stef, Later!

Guess what? #thinking face#

 Later never came. (Cynical smile) How on Earth was I going to make worksheets now or do my other work?

Do not dare answer the question

Did you read my post called “a written reflection on my thoughts”?

 I was honest about my writing; I quote “It’s been years since I have written anything down with regards to my thoughts, feelings, and inspirations of theories. When I say years, I mean since high School that is. Maybe it is because of the Globalization and the introduction of blackberry’s which I had to switch off due to distractions and another is my Mother who swings the door open with just one touch. I also have to admit my very untidy writings that I, myself fail to interpret #crazy# I know, thankfully Love Letter days are over. I would never be able to get my message across”

Now you understand why I was panic mode? (Eye brow up).

 I got more which happened; my purple berry’s battery was dying within three hours. I need my phone for many reasons, ministry is important and my lecturer will need to contact me. Ministry over the lecturer, I’m aware my lecturer contacting me seems to be made more important when reading but is not the case. You should know me by now. Lecturer from the university of kwa-Zulu Natal in south Africa-Pinetown calls me on the 15^th of July 2012, Sunday, the day before teaching practice to tell me she is coming to crit my lesson on Wednesday (18^th July) when I suppose to be observing lessons on the first week of teaching practice. What a wonderful way to start my final year teaching practice (sigh). I had my plate full but no appetite to eat (sarcasm).

 What next?

 Oh my hair iron did not want to come on. Every girl’s nightmare, please wake me up. Pinch me if you have to darling.

In the midst of everything I was experiencing in my life at once, I told myself, my father is with me, Abba will not leave me, I said with tears in my eyes “God if you brought me to it you will take me through it”. I am sensitive okay; sometimes I am and other times I am firm. I watch Oprah and cry (hands blocking eyes). I am currently dealing with my sensitivity. I believed strongly I will get through it. I also told myself God is in control. When I prayed I said to God “God, will you ever lie to me? Are you lying to me? You are not man that you will lie. I have faith in you God that you will show up in my situation because you are faithful to your promises; your word is full of your promises.” I begin to prophecy the supernatural over my life and every situation. I said to Abba, I will be a living testimony and I will reach Nation with my life, all for your Glory because I am nothing without you (previous post called who am I without Jesus). Afterwards I worshiped God in his throne room.

God came and embraced me, his presence revived me. I felt as if I had no obstacle yet I had a mountain before me.

How can this be the case?

I understood GOD Is ABLE

GOD IS A SUPERNATURAL GOD

GOD IS BIGGER THAN MY PROBLEMS

Scenes to follow:

My lecturer turned out to be such an angel pie hehehehe and when she called me the night before she mentioned I must not be scared she is here to help me. It was pure motivation, I could see my shadow and knew there must be light even in the dark tunnel. The lecturer from the university came to crit my Natural Science grade seven class on Pure substances and mixtures. I emptied my mother’s cupboards looking for seeds to use as mixtures. It was a success! When we sat down in the staff room to discuss my lesson. She smiled, held my arm and said I AM SO HAPPY WITH YOU, YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKE TO BE AN EXCELLENT TEACHER. God came through for me. He elevated me like Noah in the flood. She spoke so highly off me to my Teacher Liaison (Teacher in the school who is in charge of student teachers) and principal but my rating was average. This makes no sense but hey MY GOD IS ABLE. My lecture is coming again on the 1^st of August. I believe in God of the second chance. My second crit lecture I did well and got an A, Thanks to God. I believed God will come through for me and he did with my crit for Natural Science. My other two crit lessons went well with the university lecturer for Life Orientation and I got 95 % for both. My internal mentors where supportive and gave me A’s. Remember I said he scared my insides out. This individual complained to my teacher Liaison that I lack confidence. I almost cried hearing my teacher Liaison tell me those words. I know if I lacked confidence I would not be doing so well. I explained to her how this mentor makes me nervous, does not give me a chance in the classroom, is confused about content and forgets instruction given to me. I told her I find it hard to believe because I go out of my way making worksheets; he even used my worksheet as an assignment to send to the department, which I marked those 80 scripts and Sir confused a question with one class so I had to have different memos. After teaching in his class for a crit lesson, he interrupts me all the time, gives me a lecture after school and as I am falling apart on my way home I find my best Steffan has left me making an assumption I left him. My dear friend is sitting with my mother at my house.can u believe that? 
I am crying like a tsunami and my best friend is comfortably sitting in my house. 
I was all alone in the natural, I could not understand why did he not bbm me or wait or look around for me, the school isn’t that big, now is it?

BUT

God wanted me to realize he is able and I should trust him and not man. When all the people are gone and all you left with is God then you finally comes to the realization you have everything you need because all you ever needed is God.

I cried a lot but I said God is able and that same teacher gave me 90% for my lesson. What an incredible GOD, MY DADDY.

My grandfather (Maternal) bought me a new battery and charger and my phone worked well afterwards.

My eczema is clearing slowly but surely. My secret: I demand for supernatural healing power of God to be like oil all over me. Try it, I have seen it work on many people who had bones pains and even muscle pains and I have faith one day God will use me to raise dead people. Phew! What an alive picture (LOL-Laughing out Loud). Goosebumps all over whhhoooo weeeeeeeee!

My mother spoke Irvine Rajgopaul from church that is a part of the phoenix branch church (South Africa) to install Microsoft for me and he did that Sunday for a combined meeting. He agreed and I was over the moon.



Irvine and Leola Rajgopaul



My bursary was not suppose to pay me during teaching practice in July because they paid me a small amount in may but they paid me three times that amount.

GOD CAN

GOD IS ABLE

GOD IS MORE THAN ABLE

NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE

GOD CAN DO THE IMPOSSIBLE IN YOUR LIFE RIGHT NOW

GOD IS NOT MAN THAT HE WILL LIE

Video Games: Every Dimension and level is different from the previous

Everyone enjoys playing games and I am well aware there are many types and kinds of games exist around the Globe. Games for fun, educational games, religious games, quiz games, board games, card games, mobile games, computer games and even play station games. Many children including adults love playing games on computers and play stations. It is quiet addictive I have discovered. Rules of games differ greatly but what is the single aim of playing game?

To some it is to have fun, unfortunately this isn’t the case with me, winning is a must. I get so disappointed when I lose a game. If you could only see my face, Oh my word! I sulk so much to a point my friends will tell me“it’s just a game” but to me it was more than a game. I wanted to win, to be on top.

Am dealing with my ridiculous behavior as we speak or as you read(Smirk).

Moving further>>>>>>>>>>>>>

In order to get to a winning position. One must climb to the top of a ladder. I am not saying all games have ladder but one does come to mind. Snakes and ladders?

Did you think of that one too?

There are different dimensions to games. Each dimension as you make your way up consists of different components that are harder than the previous Level/dimension.

It has to be harder,

Howyou expect a game to be so easy at each and every level.

What will we belearning if it was?

Where’s the challenge?

If you answered NO! ……………..         

You say you do not want a challenge?Then go play with a child. Play with an individual/s half your age because you don’t want a challenge. You want everything served on a silver platter and you expect to be fed.

That behavior of yours is not going to take you anywhere in life.

How are you going to be wise?

The significance of what goes on in the Games

Free lives- are what you gain when you are smart enough and find hidden places. It Is another chances to win, to go on and conquer the game.

It is God saying. NO my child, your time is not now. Go on, live life or saying you are forgiven. Here is another chance to try again.

Enemies-There has to be an opponent or bad guys who chase after you trying to not injure BUT kill you so you will not move to the next dimension...

In life obstacles and distractions are ways to bring you down the ladder or to make you start previous levels again or at the beginning of a game. It is rather frustrating but hey, looks at the brighter side. You get to be more cautious so you ensure the same mistakes will not be repeated.

Powers- looking at your enemy they each have different types of powers and you fight back with powers too. The difference is your enemy has demonic powers from the Devil but we have supernatural and Glorious powers from God. We are not seen to be bad guys. We are seen to be GOOD GUYS. We go in with no fear but faith.

Aim- every game has an aim of winning. New dimensions consist of different levels but there are times you are smart enough to unlock some port hole which cater poles you to the next dimension...  you are over the moon and you are flying so high because you thought you had to go through the whole process but you quantum leaped.. In some games the aim is to save a life. You are a warrior, secret agent, a hero or someone with an elevated position.

Speed- momentum helps a great deal when escaping your enemies, finding refuge and fighting your enemies to. When you are slow, progression is slow too and when you are slow it’s easy for the enemy to catch up with you.

Weapons-

A range of various weapons different from what our enemies use.

Ever wondered why?

We fight on different sides. We are of different bloodline and peculiar sort of people. Basically, we move with spiritual weapons to affect natural battles. That is how we operate.

From the dark valleys to the mountain tops of Zion

God is amazing me more and more by these posts. God is confirming my post through my Spiritual Daddy, Pastor Trevor Dolan’s word ministered any time or through status messages. These blog posts are THE NOW WORD. Read with an open mind.

                                                                                                                     

Valley and mountains represent contrasting positions physical and spiritually.

Valleys	Mountains
Lower than Mountains	Higher than Valleys
Some of the Examples in the Bible are Valley of Becca meaning weeping. Valley of Dry Bones	Some of the Examples in the bible are Mount Hebron which represents Covenant and Mount Zion which David built his Kingdom on.
Is low moments in life and speaks of up and down	Elevated moments in life and speaks of heights.
No Progress	Progress
Insight and foresight limited because all around you are the same as where you stand	Insight and foresight is unlimited because you stand on the mountain and overlook the environment in front of you
Mice and chickens (Pastor ministered on chickens in the valley)	Eagles found on mountain’s
Narrow floors	Enough room-Rehoboth means make room
Below	above

Valleys

The definition of a valley is a HOLLOW surface or DEPRESSION with predominant extent in one direction. The word depression is a rather interesting pun I would think. In a valley position your spirit is lowered due to disruptive, disappointing, devastating, depressive moments, I would love to put a name tag on it called 4D. This is no 4D baby scan.

You are empty (hollow) like those white sugar coated Easter eggs. It is easier to crush a hollow object than a solid one. You are at a vulnerable state, a wounded prey.

Valleys have different shapes like V, U or flat shaped. You rather walk in circles if you decide to get comfortable in a valley position. A flat shaped valley reminds me of Social Science lesson in intermediate phases and learning about Christopher Columbus. Every one made speculation Earth is made flat and if one had to keep traveling maybe north they would fall off the face of the Earth

And end up where? Mina Angaas

Christopher Columbus wanted to see for himself and he sailed on a ship and found new places. New people, new environments but he had to be brave and go against what others were saying.

What are others saying about you?

What are people saying about you through body language, gossip, words?

Are their actions tarnishing your shine?

Are you affected by it?

If my dried up salty tears could flow back into my eyes and tell you  stories  of how they were formed, how people have defined me. Never forget your identity is found in Christ. It is more difficult, note the “D”.  When close family members or loved ones are the ones which poke at your character. Through what you are experiencing in the valley, never forget to praise God through it all. Do not run to God only when there is trouble. Some people say to me they want to ask a favour, without hesitating I ask them “What is wrong hun” knowing there must be something wrong and might need prayer. They tell me what is wrong and I pray for them. I guaranty if I call them for a prayer meeting or visit their church. They will not be there.

 WHY? You only know God when you choose to. You not are sitting in a WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE SHOW.

  Call a friend?

I got three friends to call, God, frank, Fathima. I can call God because I know he will know have the answer. You calling God because you know he is only person who will help in a tight position. After you win the money, you are asked what you are going to do and you say I am going to go out with Fathima and Frank.  Where is God in this Equation?

 Things are all rosy so I do not need God you think.

Look at my complete profile and search for a question I ask all people who read my profile.

I know you are too lazy to read it or might forget so here it is (A portion of it)

Are you an EMERGENCY CHRISTIAN? Only when you need God

REMEMBER:

Psalms  23 V 4

Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of Death, I will Fear no evil, for you are with me, your staff and rod they comfort me.

Analysis: I have no fear but faith because Emmanuel, God with us is with me. When there is fear and doubt the Holy Spirit comforts us.

Mountains

The mountains are rocky material. Christ is my rock and my sure foundations. The air is different on the mountain top. You are on higher altitudes. Eagles are found on mountain tops. When you are on the mountain top you have a choice to look down on people or help them realize they are not progressing.  You feel different on the mountain because you are surrounded by a different an environment. Make a covenant on the mountain top, Hebron. Build on the rock of your home, mount Zion. Mount Zion represents a place of intimacy with God. Shout out from the mountain tops and blow the trumpet. Moses went up to Mount Sinai where he received the ten commandments of the Lord. Instruction is therefore given on the mountain tops. David took the Ark of the Covenant to the mountain top and built his kingdom on Mount Zion so he could oversee the people and pass laws and decrees there. A Tsunami hit Indonesia a few years ago and you find people where wondering what is going on because all these animal life seemed to be heading towards the mountain. A few people realized something was drastically wrong and decided to move to the mountains for safety. When they final got to the mountain they saw the waters cover buildings and the entire sea shore was converted into an ocean bed. On the mountain you have insight and foresight that is advance and will edify and save you and people around you.

Moving from A Valley to A mountain

1.   Make up your mind to move from a valley to the mountain.

2.   Do not make a fire and build a tent in the valley. These are signs of getting comfortable.

3.   Leave your burdens at the foot of the mountain which represents the feet of Jesus.

4.   Do not let the rivers fool you because they are the rivers of depression and pool of pity.

5.   Faith will be your wings when you mount up on wings like eagles and soar towards the mountains.

6.   Mice are on the ground and are eaten by flying eagles. You want to be the eater or eaten, predator prey. I do not feel edible at this point, thank you.

7.   Do not think climbing the mountain takes too long or too much of effort to climb and then make your OWN mind up to take an alternative route. Lot took an alternative route instead of the mountains (Ministered by Pastor on the 13^th and 20^th of May-Kainos Covenant Community_Chatsworth). Lot never listen to the Angel of God and took an alternative route to Zoar found in Genesis 19 V 22 which means small and insignificant. 

8.   Looking at the mountain is not going to help you climb it when you at the foot of the mountain. Looking at the top will help you climb that mountain.

9.   Let us climb this mountain so we can visit someone I know well who lives there. The God most high.

10.               In the mountain you are closer to the sun, yes the son of God.

11.               There is rest on the mountain top.

12.               There is no being boxed in like in the valleys but there is enough room on the mountains so you are free and not restricted.

13.               God has prepared a table for you to dine with you

14.               Standing on the mountain you can see those who are down in the valleys. Help them come up to the mountain top.

15.               There is no more sadness and tears or dryness but Joy, no lack, living water.

16.                        In impartation on 22^nd may Christopher Pillay made an important point, he said, you either choose Zoar or to Soar. Funny statement but serious statement.

The demand for Ransom

7^th May 2012

I am not going to explain who Donovan Munsamy also known as Brandon is to me. After being mentioned in two blog posts you should know him to be my Mentor/Spiritual brother by now. We chatted on Sunday and he inspired me to write a post on the demand and then about ransom so that brings me to my title THE DEMAND FOR RANSOM. I was still working on this post and Pragasen Pillay lead worship in Chatsworth on Sunday 13 May 2012 (Mother’s Day) and mentioned DEMAND. That is not all my Spiritual Daddy Pastor Trevor Dolan ministered and confirmed this blog and two others. God is amazing!

What is a demand?

It is related to a command. It is a statement. It has authority and dominion. You are not asking but telling. There no MANNER VOCABULARY involved in this demanding sentence because it has exclamation marks!

Scenario One:

At a restaurant you get poor service from your clumsy, forgetful, young waitress. Let’s give her a name. What shall we call her? (Put on my or our thinking cap {LOL}). How about Sarah. Sarah makes you wait awhile before she brings your order to you. As you wait your tummy begins singing Opera converting into a hungry beast. The smells of food travel from the kitchen into your nasal cavity and affect the Opera singers and starving beasts trapped in pit of your stomach. The other waitresses and waiters are on the roll. When they pass you the smell hits you and you get more upset, the steam also hits your face and you feel hot headed. A plan of action is needed but your brain requires energy, energy comes from food and this waitress has not brought it to you. The little energy you have you try and use to devise a master plan BUT distractions from fast waiters/waitresses comes and those opera singers and starving beast start acting up once again. Reminds me off Jacob and Esau in the Bible and that Bowl of Soup. History will not repeat itself; there are sauces on the Table.

Sarah smiles and gives you your order; all your plots and plans fade away as the steam evaporates. The little energy you have left is used to reach towards utensils and a platter. Smiling at Sarah you smile and look at your meal about to devour it as she stands beside you to ensure all is well. You look properly at your meal, and you are not surprised, you where brought a wrong order.

This is it, you release hungry beasts and opera singers and your appetite is now lost. Never again will you eat at this restaurant. You Demand to see the manager because you know you are right, in fact you have a right to a good service on time no matter what circumstances. When you see the manager, Sarah is scared because her manager is a higher ranking than her; she may lose her job or get a warning.

Now you understand the term DEMAND. Let’s look at Ransom.

Any action movie has a scene where someone is kidnapped and held hostage by obviously bad guys, if they were good they will not take a person and keep them safe or let alone kidnap. Imagine a few people take you somewhere and treat you like gold and after they are done leave you back in your home, safe and sound, how we wish. Just a few random thoughts thrown at you from my imaginative mind.

As I was saying to you. In most cases people who are kidnapped are either people in power, rich family or friends.  The bad guys are certain they will get a big amount of cash in small period of time if they get somebody kidnaped from a rich family. They will not kidnap a beggar from a street corner or a middle class individual; they rather join these individuals in their jobs or daily routines. Not worthy kidnapping a middle class/ Poor person all because these people have no big cash on hand.  The enemy calls the victim’s family with their voice exposed or a special device changing their voices into a voice from scary movie. (Chuckling away). They tell the family what we see happen in any movie this scene occurs in, “BRING THE _______ (RANSOM) MONEY TO ______LOCATION AT _____ TIME ON THE DOT, COME ALONE AND DO NOT TELL THE COPS OR WE WILL HURT _________”. The bad guy takes the victim near the mobile  for them to scream through a dirty looking piece of dusting furniture or washing car cloth tied around their mouth, EEEEWWW!!!!. The victim will try and have a lengthy conversation with their family member as if the bad guys are lending free minutes. The victim might say do not come it is a trap and the bad guys cut the call.  The victim’s family get police involved and bad guys find out, if bad guys do not find out, WHERES THE MOVIE? WHERE IS THE ACTION?

It is predictable because in a scary movie I know somebody is going to slip and twist their ankle and throughout the whole movie they will be limping and running away from their killer with help from someone else who will try to help them balance and be their eyes and not forgetting saying “HE IS COMING, FASTER”. The individual limping will say “LEAVE ME”. The helper will say I am not leaving you.  At the end the one limping survives. They need to change it around now.

Really, (Shaking head from side to side).

What did I tell you??????? PREDICTABLE!!!!!!!

Scenario Two:

(Inspired to use the name when I entered and boring Lecture in Lecture 7 UKZN Edgewood for language and Literacy 320 and found this on the smart bored, I smiled to myself to know God wanted me to use this in this post)

There is a man called SINBAD (Not his name SIN_BAD) also known as Satan and he Kidnaps you because he hears you have big inheritance from ABRAHAM. Sinbad did his homework and found out you are a prince and princess and your father is the King of the world. Sinbad knew a smart move is to kidnap you. Sinbad calls your Father. Abba Father

also known as God answers and (Such a Glory as I type this part to you) send Ransom as promised.

ABBA Father sends JESUS and TWO STICKS. Jesus nailed to the cross is what Father sends to Sinbad. As sung by Chris Tomlin, JESUS MESSIAH; a part of the Lyrics there is a line that goes “THE RANSOME FROM HEAVEN”. Whom the son sets free is free indeed.

you are now free

You can demand wisdom, demand the anointing. Demand for it with authority because you have the right to demand for it. Ask like it is yours, have faith and call what is not as if it is.
