Daugther, do not sell your destiny!

' As I was making my niece eat, the devil wishepered to my ears' look, this is a delicous chocolate croissant will you not have a bite of it. Cut your fast and taste this croissant. You will not postpone your blessings for this.'

This was me one day. I was fasting during this period because I really needed to be restored and strengthened by the Lord. I wanted to know where I was in my walk with Christ. Trust me fasting is one of the best way to maintain your connection with God and be restored.

Yes, when you pray, serve the Lord in your local church you are connected to God. But when you fast, you become more sensitive to the voice of God. Why?Because your flesh is submitted to the Lord and your spirit communes daily with your Master.

When you practice this spiritual exercise often, it becomes easy for you to not accomplish the desires of the flesh to do the will of your Heavenly Fasther.


The devil knows that when we fast, blessings will follow us according to the purpose of the fast. As always, he wants to steal those blessings to make our fast vain. But glory be to God for we are not ignoant of his methods.

As I stared at this croissant, the Holy Spirit reminded me of a sermon I listened to the day before about the blessings that follow fasting. The man of God, Prophet Sosthene Mabouadi said something that blessed me so much. He said never sell your destiny.

Do you remember of Esau who sold his birthright for a meal. He was so starved that he despised the privilege he had to be the firstborn of his family.

Ignorance can lead you to despise the blessings of God over your life.You may not have it all but you have already something. The Word tells us that before Esau's name was Obed. His name was changed to Esau. Our names are very important to God. A destiny can be attached to a name, this is why we need to know the meaning of our names and surnames especially for those who come from Africa.

Sometimes someone gives to you a name because for her that person was kind to her but she overlooked the fact that the name means witch. We really need to pray God to reveal the thing that are still hidden in our lives.

This chocolate croissant could postpone my blessings. It could steal my blessings but I thank the Holy Spirit who warned me. The devil is a liar!!!


Do not trade your blessings of the Lord for the pleasures of this earth. Do not trade it for a sexual pleasure. Do not trade it for the love of money. Do not trade it for anything.

We need to be determined and to cling onto Him. Those earthly things shall pass away but His Word shall not pass away.

I do not know what you are going through, but be encouraged to follow Him and to renounce to every thing that can turn the heart of God against you.

As you do so, I see God restoring you and blessing you beyond your imagination in Jesus Name.

Amen

Appearance: I do not love myself!

Have you ever looked yourself in the mirror and appreciate the person you see? Have you ever thought you were not beautiful enough, nor pretty enough? Do you love yourself? Do you love your body? The way you move? If not, then continue to read may the Spirit open your eyes to let you see the beautiful person you are in Jesus Name! Hello precious! Today, I am going to share with you about self-love. How sad it is to see many women comparing themselves to other women! It breaks my heart every time I hear a lady saying 'I just want to be like her', or 'If only I was her'. Have you ever thought this way?  I think we all have...but the good news is you can decide to choose this way of thinking. You are unique. No one on earth can smile like you, can talk like you, can act like you, you are a very peculiar person, and God has no more stock of you in heaven, this should make you think twice.  When I was a teenager, I used to compare myself to my little sister...

Ladies, do not compromise

Hello, LWM! I hope you had a wonderful weekend. I did by the Grace of God. Today, I would like to encourage us to stay firm in our faith. I had a chat with a friend of mine over the weekend and we were discussing about who we must marry. It was going nowhere because the person believed that she could still date an unbeliever and still be in the Will of God. I did give her the scriptures which clearly showed that God would not allow such a relationship but it was a waste of time. I am believing God that He will convince her to accept this truth. Ladies, I would like to encourage us to stay firm and not compromise our faith in Christ. We cannot play with our life this way. Marriage is a lifetime commitment, so we better be careful when it comes to choose our partner for life. I was saying to the person that I understood her view but I did not support it. I understood the fact that she said " what if I fell in love with an unbeliever?, Am I sinning?". I have been there. I ...

The best is yet to come! Appointment at the top!

                           Will I survive from this? Will I recover ? Will I smile again ?             So many questions, we asks ourselves after a sad event. It may be the loss of someone, a breakup, a disease, unemployment, well after a bad case we often tend to reconsider everything in our lives. If you are at this stage, know you are not alone. Many people like you have gone through this or actually are going through this.             I love the Word of God because it talks about many situations we can relate to. As it says, nothing new is before the sun, everything that is have already been, and what will be is already. So is this situation you are going through...Do you remember the story of Naomi in Judges?                The Word says that after loosing her husband and her sons, she became bitter....
