DEATH IS INEVITABLE
Reminiscing about the year thinking about friends that we started the year together but are no more. There is a topic that people dont like to discuss which is death many people will not see the year 2016 because the spirit of death will knock on their doors but because you are reading this post you will you not die in Jesus name . Your family child children wife husband relatives will not die in Jesus name Amen. But do you know that a day is coming when your resume, job title will no longer impress anyone no one will care what cars you drove anymore, let us be wise and refocus which implies fulfilling God assignment for you on earth, the security you need now is knowing Jesus Christ personally dont delay your salvation surrender all to Him Jesus Loves you Shalom

START USING YOUR SPIRITUAL COMPASS
God has placed a spiritual compass in you that you must use though risky use it because it will open doors that nothing else will. Prophet Elijah requested for the widow last meal and she gave and outlive the famine Noah built an ark despite that there was no rain until the day he finished then reality dawn on his doubters .Whatever it is that God has placed in your hands, visions, dreams begin to use the compass and you will never fail

HOLD STEADFASTLY TO YOUR FAITH
Sometimes
God doesn’t tell why we are going through that dark period of our lives because He wants us to know who we really are , test and refine us. When you feel you are out of depth probably you are
in the darkest moment of your life now wondering why all these events are
happening to you ,your dark moment is not always from the devil,enemies, it is one of
God best teaching tools you need to hold steadfastly in faith. Faith is like
film, it is developed in the dark, dark days make us lean on God in ways we
normally we wouldn’t. It is easy to praise God when your health is good and your bills are
paid, it is when light suddenly turns to darkness that we discover that our
faith is made of where our trust truly lives , it is in those seasons that we
develop night visions but I have a word from the Lord to you read ISAIAH 41:10-13

VALUE YOUR FRIENDS
Friendship
is like riding the bus, if you are going to have company you must be willingly
to scoot over to accommodate other people and the baggage they bring , your
actions in doing this express the importance of the other person. One relationship
becomes more valuable than others because of its ability to survive and endure
realignments. Friends that won’t run when the road gets rocky and our
imperfections won’t change their commitment must be valued. You won’t get rid
of your car because it has a flat tyre behind every success story you find
someone who once felt discouraged but
someone picked them up and helped them to keep going. To all my friends that
have been there for me I value and cherish you but remember there is a better
than friend that will never leave you when you can’t find your friends JESUS

COMMIT ALL TO THE LORD
18 December 2015
IN THE FOURTH WATCH HE CAME TO THEM
The
fourth watch lasts from 3.00am till 6;00am night time is when God does some of
His best work. When the Israelites faced the red sea we read that “All that
night the Lord drove back the sea.During the middle watch of the night Gideon
defeated the Midianites . Jesus rose from the dead before daybreak . Jesus waited until the storm was at its
worst and they had lost hope that is because God dictates the timetable for our
deliverance and He is never late .God doesn’t need anything we have to accomplish
His purposes so be humble and don’t panic.Your problem is just a platform to
display His power in your life the testimony is just around the corner ,hold
firm to God

SLOWLY STEADILY SURELY YOU WILL FLY
In the early stages of pregnancy a baby is easier to lose , the same applies to your vision, the enemy tried to destroy Jesus and Moses at infancy why? he feared their future and he surely fear yours ,at the first trimester you are not showing you just have to go with the flow there are certain things you need to do in order to deliver what God has promised. The doctor advice you not to smoke or drink because he is thinking about your future ,the call to give birth to a vision means daring to be different , radical it means disconnecting from relationship that can hurt you , staying out of certain places if you think a vision is easy check the price tag.like childbirth it is hard lonely, sleeplessness schedule altering, pain so before you give lip service or play around with God purpose for your life ask yourself " Am I ready to carry thing full term?

SONG OF THE DAY
I HAVE HEARD THE VOICE OF GOD VERY QUIET HE CALLED ME BY MY NAME SAW A GLIMPSE OF HIS GLORY BUT CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT I WILL DO WHEN I SEE HIM
TAKE YOUR TIME
The Bible says dont despise small beginnings when you learn to grow learning totally from the Holy Spirit which most seems very slow but by the time He finishes with you you will come out perfect many men and women of God that rush out become confused along the way and suddenly disappear. WALK WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT DONT RUSH

BIBLE VERSE OF THE DAY
I will freely sacrifice unto thee I will praise thy name O Lord for it is good for he hath delivered me out of all trouble and mine eye hath seen his desire upon mine enemies PSALMS 54:6-7
GIVE YOURSELF WHOLLY TO YOUR WORK
King Saul was attacked by evil spirits that tormented him , so he sent for David to come and play his harp, as David played King Saul was relieved , this story teaches us two things :the power of praise and the power of practice.David didnt suddenly discover his talent when he arrived at the palace rather he developed through years of practice on lonely hillsides while tending his father sheep. When it comes to practice the two most difficult challenges you face is having the desire and the discipline .There is no easy way to being disciplined it has nothing to do with talent or ability ,it is a matter of choice but once the choice is made and practice becomes a habit two things becomes obvious there is a clear difference between the person who practice and the one who doesnt the second thing that emerges is a winning spirit.The harder you work, the harder it becomes to surrender to fatigue,complacency,discouragement, criticism,and anything that will break your strides https://youtu.be/OQYwZ77V58I

DO GOOD TO PEOPLE
As followers of Christ you are commanded to build others up by highlighting what good instead of stereotypes, by respecting instead of ridiculing by forgiving instead of shaming by modelling unconditional love instead of love with strings attached by applauding each step of growth , encourage others because one day you will need encouragement ,Moses encouraged Moses stop and think about somebody who could use a little encouragement and before today is over , make it a point to get in touch with them https://youtu.be/OQYwZ77V58I.

YOU WILL FIND WHO YOU ARE IN CHRIST
One day a boy was climbing up the mountain and found an eagle nest with an egg when he got home he put it along with other eggs under a hen.When the eagle hatched he thought he was a chicken, he learned chicken behavior and scratched in the chicken yard with his"siblings", sometimes he felt stirrings within himself but he didn't know what to do with them so he ignored after all he was a chicken. One day an eagle flew over the chicken yard and he looked up and wanted to be like the eagle as he saw the eagle fly up to the mountain peaks he spread his wings though he never flew before he possessed the instinct and capabilities, all he needed to do was spread his wings and fly. You were made by God and for God ,until you understand this life wont make sense.It is in Christ that we discover our purpose,destiny and significance

BE RELAXED WITH WHAT YOU HAVE
Before you change your job title , examine your perspective toward life.Success is not defined by position or pay scale but by doing most ,what you do the best.Parents give this counsel to your children, tell them to do what they love to do and do it so well that somebody pays them to do it. Spouses urge your mate to choose satisfaction over salary. It is better to be marry to a happy person with thin wallet than a miserable person with thick wallet , pursue the virtue of contentment ,when choosing or changing jobs be careful consult your design, consult your designer not your greed.Greed has many faces but one language MORE. Proverbs 15:16 It is better to have little with fear for the Lord than to have great treasure with turmoil GBU

BIBLE VERSE OF THE DAY
The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon Him in truth, He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him,he will also hear their cry and will save them PSALM 145:18-19
REFOCUS ON WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE
No matter how talented or successful we become, we all need a strong dose of servanthood. As you pursue your God destiny be careful. be focused on what you love to do that you neglect what needs to be done nappy changing at 3am isnt exciting but needs to be done.JESUS Christ didnt come to be served but to serve,He chose remote Nazareth over centre stage Jerusalem,His dad carpentry shop over a palace ,three decades of anonymity over a life of popularity,He selected prayer over sleep,flawed apostles over obedient angels.He let a woman caught in adultery interrupt His sermon,one with remorse interrupt His meal, none of His disciples washed His feet but He washed theirs,none of the soldiers at the cross begged for mercy but He extended mercy. Though His disappeared with fear on Thursday , He came searching for them on Sunday ,emulate our Saviour .https://youtu.be/nbyuzTK62UY

You Lord keep my lamp burning my God turns my darkness into light with your help I can advance against a troop with my God I can scale a wall PSALM 18:28-29
GOD WILL REWARD US ALL
A lost opportunity to give is a lost opportunity to receive because Your Father who sees in secret will Himself reward you openly , Imagine what it will be like on judgement day when God tells somebody you helped anonymously that it was you. There will be rewards handed out to people who dont even remember doing the things they are honoured for,like making a phone call that landed somebody a job, paying their light bill, encouraging them when they are down, leaving abag of groceries on their door ,even those who benefitted from your kindness forget, God remembers records and rewards MATTHEW 10;42 https://youtu.be/nbyuzTK62UY

BIBLE VERSE OF THE DAY
Do not despise these small beginnings; for the LORD rejoices to see the work begin Zechariah 4:10
DO WHAT YOU CAN WITH WHAT YOU HAVE
What seems small to you might be huge to someone else start that business with that small capital ,David had a sling that killed the enemy of his nation ,Dorcas had a needle that on the day of trouble people showed Peter all the clothing she sowed for them and was raised from the dead to life.Rahab had a string that saved her and household and was in the lineage of Jesus Christ. All were used by God. What do you have? JOHN WESLEY SAID" Do all the good you can,by all the means you can,in all the ways you can,in all the places you can,at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as you ever can. With GOD , small deeds count never despise small beginnings. WATCH AND SUBSCRIBE ON THESE CHANNEL: FOUNDATIONONASOLIDROCK ON YOUTUBE GBU https://youtu.be/EeNHGt62BdY

LOVE OTHERS AS MUCH AS YOU LOVE YOURSELF
https://youtu.be/EeNHGt62BdY Love yourself in a healthy way then you can love others , when you don't love yourself you live in insecurity, and you keep looking to others for approval leading to living beneath your approval. You are the only person that you cant avoid ,learn to accept yourself to avoid miserable living. However the Bible cautions us about having an over inflated opinion of ourselves remember God despises a proud person but promotes the humble instead of focusing on your flaws recognize the treasure of God presence power and potential that lives in you and build on it.

Though the fig tree does not bud and there no grapes on the vines though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food though there are no sheep in the sheepfold and no cattle in the stalls yet I will rejoice in the Lord I will be joyful in God my Saviour
GATHER THE LEFTOVERS
Did you know that what starts as a curse can end as a blessing? When Jesus discovered that Lazarus was sick He didnt respond until after he had died , He chose that to show us that nothing is too hard for God.Joseph was falsely imprisoned for 13 years but God was with him, his struggles made him better not bitter he maintained a right attitude ,God used Esther to save her people but first God put her in a position of living where she didnt want to live and doing what she didnt want to do. So if you are struggling to see God purpose in your suffering today be rest assured He has one , trust God all things are working together for your good https://youtu.be/EeNHGt62BdY

BIBLE VERSE OF THE DAY
Whatever is has already been, and what will be has been before and God will call the past to account Eccelesiastes 3:15
THE ROAD TO SUCCESS
The life of Joseph teaches us that the road to success isnt easy. It involves having a dream nobody else believes in, and holding onto it through the hardest of times. It involves handling resentment from those closest to you and keeping a good attitude. It involves mai ntaining your intergrity when faced each day with temptation. it involves being so honest though very hard , it involves staying so prepared that even though your dreams are delayed , when God opens the door you are ready to walk through it. Set your standards high and keep them high if you think no one is looking ,somebody out there will notice even if it just you , never allow anyone set the standard for you because in the end you you have to live with yourself and , judge yourseelf and feel good about yourself.

Be not afraid of sudden fear , neither of the desolation of the wicked when it cometh for the Lord shall be thy confidence and shall keep thy foot from being taken PROVERBS 3:25-26
WHAT DO YOU SEE AS YOUR LIFE PURPOSE
There are two options either speculation based on assumptions , influence from inspiration talks, stories, success knowing your purpose in life requires turning to God words not the world wisdom.Revelation can be achieved when you turn to God words, it is our own manual explaining why we are alive , how life works , what to avoid and what to expect in life .God is not just the starting point of your life , He is the source of it , not sure of your purpose yet seek and read God wordshttps://youtu.be/5QkYcnJinKo

IT IS BETTER TO HAVE SELF CONTROL THAN TO CONQUER A CITY
Building character requires self discipline .Self discipline is the ability to do what is right when you don't feel your greatest victory are internal ones if you are serious about building strong character ,set higher standards for yourself and refuse to lower them. You will however need a role model, you cannot find a better role model except Jesus Christ. Each day look for an opportunity to say "no" to yourself in small area , you will be surprise how hard it is but the payoff will come when you need to say no to yourself in some big area of your life.httpshttps://youtu.be/5QkYcnJinKo://youtu.be/5QkYcnJinKo

He heals the broken hearted and binds up their wounds, He determines the numbers of the stars and calls them each by name. Great is our Lord and mighty in power his understanding has no limit PSALM 147:3-5
LAUGH CONTINUALLY
When you woke up this morning what did you do first? Smile or frown at the first person you saw ? Laugh in spite of all circumstances this shows that the world is not the source of your security , secondly temporal situations don't control your joy ,people refuse to evangelise because others would become as miserable as they are shouldn't describe you give yourself permission to laugh , it will keep you healthy beautiful/handsome and make the experience you talk about a lot more attractive to others. Your current situation is temporal begin to imagine your future and be happyhttps://youtu.be/5QkYcnJinKo

We do not know what we should for but the Spirit makes intercession for us ROMANS 8:26
THE LANGUAGE OF THE SPIRITUAL WORLD
The language of the spiritual world is prayer and since the spiritual world is the source of power , victory, peace , joy and everything else we need ,it is essential we learn to speak it. Spiritual world controls the physical world, prayer is relational the Holy Spirit is there to help us to pray , He communicate God heart back to us by connecting with our human spirit so that we hear God talk to us in the deepest part of our being . Prayer cannot be rushed we must take our time to meditate and be still.

BE HOLY
Holiness isn't a subject we hear much these days what really is holiness ? but let us understand what it doesn't mean? It doesn't mean isolation from the world, it insulates you against negative influences. It is not a scorecard for deciding who is close to God and who is not , it is having a heart that is aware of your shortcomings and praying Holiness means to be set apart in a special and exclusive way focusing and always remembering that God watches us including secret things thoughts of our lives will enable us live holyhttps://youtu.be/IWHY_7FtKNc

A wife of noble character is her husbands crown but a disgraceful wife is like decay in his bones PROVERBS 12:4 NIV
PRAYER
The first mention of prayer in the Bible is "At that time men began to call on the name of the Lord " So how often do you call on the name of the Lord? Only when you are in trouble ? Or when in church? Never? Occasionally ? Try a triple A prayer 1 ADORE: You build intimacy in a relationship by focusing on the other person so change your prayer pattern get up tomorrow morning and ask "Lord is there anything I can do for you today? 2 ASK: Most of the time God will is already revealed in His word , so read it . When you know you are praying spiritually you pray with confidence using your faith 3 ACCEPT God will always work in your best interest despite the urgency God answering your prayer is determined by the condition of your heart and your readiness to handle what He wants to give you so instead of pestering Him like a child grow up and say "Lord , You promised it , I believe it and that settles it .https://youtu.be/IWHY_7FtKNc

RISE UP TAKE COURAGE AND DO IT
Commitment is a willingness to do whatever it takes it is a promise to yourself from which you refuse to back down there is a difference between interest and commitment .When you are interested you do it only when its convenient but when you are committed you accept no excuse , you cant have a healthy body when you feed on junk foods, a guaranteed salary is non existent when you start your own business commitment means paying your dues disregarding critics what are you committed to God or money? https:/, /youtu.be/IWHY_7FtKNc

A pastor of a large church tells of being in an elevator with a drunk man who was throwing up , the pastor couldn't wait o get off , and kept criticising the man later that night God spoke to him and said "You laughed at him, but I loved him enough to die for him. The same sunshine that melts the butter hardens the clay , when you constantly deal with people problem it will make you either callous or compassionate .LOVE isn't a virus that you catch it is a virtue you are suppose to practise everyday extend your love to someone today especially people that you know hate you. https://youtu.be/IWHY_7FtKNc

TRIBULATION WORKETH PATIENCE
How do you develop patience? Through tribulation when your honesty seems to go unnoticed , when your hard work seems to go unrewarded , when your kindness is rendered without thanks , when your helping hand is offered and ignored when even love is refused that is when patience shines in all its beauty , in Christian life each storm brings its blessings and each trial produces its rewards, patience brings hope , it produces spiritual fruit, through patience you will receive what God has promised you.https://youtu.be/IWHY_7FtKNc

SEE YOURSELF IN GOD IMAGE
A man who was feeling depressed went to see a psychiatrist . After sharing his
problems he expected some profound words of wisdom that would make him feel
better “Well the psychiatrist exclaimed “Ive diagnosed the problem it is low
esteem and is common among losers. When you view yourself negatively you tend
to gravitate toward people who talk down to you. But when you know that God
loves you and plans to give you a future and a hope your entire outlook
changes. With God you can’t lose even if you stumble and fall He would help
you to get back up, learn from the experience and move on . Look at yourself in
the mirror of God word , you will see someone being transformed into His
likeness https://youtu.be/JtBIUbNLE3Q
