What’s a pencil is without lead?

Is it of any use to a writer or artist?

What is a house without a family or anyone living in it?

Is not empty and of no use?

What is a bookshelf without books?

What is book without any words, sentences or paragraphs?

Is it not anything but a book of empty pages with no story?

AHA!!!!!!!!!

What am I without JESUS?

Who am I without JESUS?

Without his grace which is sufficient for?

Without his ZOE breathe of life?

Am I not just an empty vessel, a vacuum, useless if I do not have Christ tabernacle in my temple. (My Body)

I have no purpose in life; I have no identity because my indentity is found in Christ.

I will have no hope to move forward

WHO AM I WITHOUT JESUS?

Empty, lifeless, useless, lost, lied to because he is the way, the truth and the life, God has the final say and Jesus, , my dear friends is my final answer.

To some it all up in just one word.

THE ANSWER IS SIMPLE?

SEVEN LETTERS LONG?

God showed me in a vision a big clock and the word in capital letters “TIME” so like my other blog posts that have been directed and inspired by God. I know this is the way forward.

Times is in the form of date, hours, minutes, seconds, days, months and even a life. A life is our God given time on Earth. You have heard the saying which goes as time waits for no man. It is true, we cannot relive a moment we love so much because all we have left are just memories. We cannot freeze time like superheroes in cartoons or build a time machine and go back in time to make adjustments and alter your mistakes.

The Greek word for time is Kairos which means God appointed time. Chronos means the time of the World. We are governed by God time which is Kairos but our physical lives are often tending to be involved with Chronos. One must acknowledge the Chronos may seem bleak but when it’s your God appointed time, you’re Kairos. Nothing can stop you.

Importance of time

To a student at university/School who failed a grade or module n has to repeat a year. Ask them how valuable a year is to them.

To a Mother who has given birth to a premature child. Ask her how valuable a month or two was to her and her family

To a family who needs money to buy food and has to wait a week for pay day. Ask them how valuable a week is to them.

To a couple who are getting married. Ask them the value of a day to them. The day they marry the love of their lives.

To a man whose lives in South Africa and his family live in India? Who finds out father has an incurable disease and only had a few hours left to live. Ask that very same man how important an hour is to him.

To a worker who has a strict Boss at work and misses the bus by a few minutes. Ask her how important it was for her to be just a few minutes early.

To a soccer team who has the last few seconds to score a goal that will tie the game. Ask any one of them how important a few seconds is to them.

Jesus is never too early, never too late but just on time. In our midnight hour he is there to help us by giving us such comfort, great Joy and breakthrough.

One of my all-time favourite scriptures is Ecclesiastics chapter 3 v 1-8.

Brief summary of this chapter:

there is a season, an appointed time and a purpose under God throneroom(the heavens). even as the book of Isaiah speaks of Gods ways and thoughts being higher than ours, evn as the heavens are higher than the Earthn so are Gods ways and God thoughts. we may never understand it because of our flesh

When you are waiting for the time God brings you opportunity of your heart’s desire. Some TIMES doors close, some TIMES doors open, Some TIMES double doors open.

I wrote: another lesson I have learnt is God will shut one door and open another door or many other doors according to the opportunity size and width of that door. We live our lives bearing in mind that God can give and take when he feels he should according to his perfect will BUT also being thankful for being the appointed one for a particular door.

Soldier For Christ

I was invited to join a group on Facebook called Soldiers for Christ and this powerful passionate group inspired me to write a blog post entitled “Soldiers for Christ”

Think about it>>>>>>

When you think of the word Soldiers, what are the image and emotions created in your mind?

Some might say army green loose clothing, boots, and belts, weapons like guns and weapons for mass destruction.  In war movies they are seen with dark markings running across their faces and expression on their faces saying “We are on a mission and we will kill anything that’s not of us on our path, so BEWARE”. Women have their hair tied and men and women are seen alike.

No matter how different in character or background. Every Individual coming together to accomplish one mission set before them. It does not matter who you are because all of you have the same focus. Here are people who are will to die for the mission, for the same vision, who will give up their families, comfortable lifestyles and put aside their careers, hopes and dreams just to let their country get Victory.

These Soldiers make this huge sacrifice and think nothing of it not because they have nothing better to do or is heartless BUT because they have passion for this cause that exceeds life itself.

©      Wars, warfare’s, war Zones are physical and Spiritual.

©      There are different types of wars and Soldiers. There are soldiers for countries, nations, Islands, states.

©      There are Soldiers for Presidents and Kings.  There are war zones which are on Land, mid-air and on water.

©      Every mission involves moving in towards the opponent (Enemy’s) camp or territory.

©       Every mission has a plan, weapons and strategies according to the Mission.

©      We have a dress code to differentiate what type of Soldiers we are. Soldiers of a king wear an armour.
© Soldiers of different ranking wear also badges that differ to tell them apart

WHAT AM I REALLY GETTING AT. IM PREPARING YOU FOR THE BIGGER PICTURE

Spiritual Implications and Application.

We are Soldiers in the army of God. We are Soldiers for the King of Kings, The king of Glory.

Mission: Enemies Camp

Remember to: Kill the Flesh. The Flesh must die for the Spirit to increase

Dress Code: Armour of God, sceptre, signet ring

Weapons: the word of God

Attitude: Victory, Positive, faith, unity

Location: Every area in our lives of lack and disappointment, of Barrenness and of dryness, of stagnancy, of bent postures, of sickness, disease and depression.

Ready? We are going in. we are on our mission. The King has instructed us to move in. I forgot to tell you the name of our mission. The title makes all the difference. It is called “OPERATION RESTORATION” we are to take back what’s ours. To uproot, pull down and demolish all because we are on the winning side.  

Receive it in the name of Jesus. God restores in abundance. Now you have your Victory you can Dance on the head of the enemy because No weapon formed against you shall prosper. No tongue formed against u will prosper. Every curse  is now turned into a blessing.

MISSION ACCOMPOLISHED

IT’S THE YEAR OF JUBILEE

Vibrations of Glory Cocooning

Venue: Lecture Theatre in UKZN Edegewood

please read Isaiah 61. It was introduced to my mentor ans Spiritual brother Brandon (Don) by our Spiritual Father Pastor Trevor Dolan. We are seeing this scripture becoming flesh in our lives. This is what initated my experience, Read and declare it with authority.

My Experience

Today during a lecture I had an experience which I have not had before. God allowed his Glory to fall on me in such a measure that I was covered with hid Golden droplets and hardened it formed a covering. this Glory made me feel heavenly sensation. it was as if  my Human body was a puppet and phased out of the lecture and my Spirit went up to the Heavens. i felt Vibrations and goosebumps at once. Which brings me to my Title "vibrations of Glory Cocooning". I can not explain to you how awsome my experience was. have you ever felt God so close to you. You begin to inhale the very same air God the Father exhales. can you imagine that closeness. The cocoon reminded me of a Caterpillar.

Picture this:

it is a bright and sunny day. you decide to go out doors and appreciate Nature (Gods creation). You come across a tree and there is something rather odd on this tree other than the bark, leaves or Stem. rather curious you want to investigate this further so you go closer to figure out exactly whats on this stem. You discover a Catterpillar being cocooned.

Days go by and you monitor the Cocoon. oneday its gone and very dissappointed, hang your head in dissapointment. when you decide to go back into your home because theres nothing interesting outside now you see the most beautiful butterfly and you smile to yourself thinking that is what came out of it.

Gods Cocoon is like a protection. God preserves you. you might be at a caterpillar Stage right now and Nothing seems to be happening BUT God is preparing you for something beautiful and great. That Change (Metamorphorsis). It is going to take time, the caterpillar took time for the Cocoon to be made. When GOD is done with you, not only people but you yourself are going to embrace and be amazed at the Change because only GOD can leave you awestruck. The Caterpillar can not fly but he Butterfly can. Your Change is going to take you to new Dimensions in Christ.

Life: What we experience as Humans in our Daily lives

I was inspired to write before a Leadership on the 17 of March 2012 (Saturday)

 It’s easy to look at problems around you and drown in pool of pity or throw yourself an extravagant pity party with you being the guest of honour, host and only guest. If you look ahead and see the finish line, you are looking at the bigger picture.

I use to feel like no one understood me but then I realised no one will understand its creation other than creator himself.

I used to spend times in my room, thinking I was all alone but I never knew the Holy Spirit was right beside me. When I prayed you answered me Lord. When two and three are gathered, there you are in their midst.

I used to look back at the past and think “What was I thinking?

Did I have Amnesia that I could not differentiate right from wrong” but I should have asked myself “What did I learn? How wise has my mistakes from the past made me?”

During difficult moments I would question asking Why me? Why now? Why not someone else? But I failed to ask Why not? Send me; Use me, And Fill Me!

In my availability God the impossible by transforming my inability into an ability because>>>>>>>

I should have been rejoicing in my trials (James 1)

Because>>>>>>>

I am being refined and tested (Zachariah 13)

Because>>>>>>>

Testing produces a perfect product

Because>>>>>>>

Refining removed my dross and now I’m Gold

Because>>>>>>>

Each pain I encountered moulded me into who I am today

EVEN THOUGH I’m not perfect GOD still USED ME

EVEN THOUGH I am still a sinner. The HOLY SPIRIT still intervened on my behalf

I may not be perfect BUT JESUS thought I was to die for

Jehova my all in all is always there no matter what situation even When I.....

When I am ashamed of circumstances around me. You are the Lifter of my Head.

When I look around me Lord I see your love, agape Love

When I look inside me I see your hope to Pick myself and continue this Journey

When I have you in my life Lord, I have no fear but Faith and I believe in you

In the midst of Turmoil you are Jehova Shalom, My Peace

When things seem to not go my way I know your ways are higher than mine even as the Heavens higher than the and your timing is perfect.

 

When I am weak you are my perfect Strength.

When I weep and wonder why I have been hurt so badly.

 

When I look at my Life

 I see your Plan

I see your Purpose

I see my Destiny
