Purposeful-Living
I am a Son, and so, an heir to God’s promises. Therefore, I claim all God’s promises to me in Jesus mighty God. Galatians 4:7
That the will of God be done and His purpose for my life manifest so I can fulfill my reason for existence.
Amen!
Happy new year, 2023!
Deliverance
Even when it seems like my problems linger on, prove yourself strong Lord, and show that you’re greater than all my troubles.
And victory shall be ours according to God-given power that is working in us, Amen.
One of the most important prayers
One of the most important prayers in any man’s life is to pray not to fall into temptation.
Falling into temptation can bring any man down from grace to grass. It can also make a great man an ordinary man.
Matthew 26:40-41
40 Then he came to the disciples and found them sleeping. He said to Peter, “So, couldn’t you stay awake with me for one hour?
41 Stay awake and pray that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
This is so important that there is an instruction that whoever thinks he stands should watch lest he falls.
1Co 10:12 NET So let the one who thinks he is standing to be careful that he does not fall.
Don’t be so confident that you ignore a gentle warning.
When to pray
When you’re troubled and distressed, it’s time to pray.
When you’re confused, it’s time to pray.
When you have a challenge and don’t know how to manage it, it’s time to pray.
When you’re in a dilemma and find it hard to make a good decision, pray.
And when everything seems alright, it’s time to pray.
Matthew 26:36-38
36 Then Jesus went with them to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to the disciples, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.”
37 He took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and became anguished and distressed.
38 Then he said to them, “My soul is deeply grieved, even to the point of death. Remain here and stay awake with me.”
Prayer for today
Arise oh Lord and scatter the works of the enemies.
Stop praying; start working!
Yeah, stop praying and start doing some work!
James 1:22-25 said we should be doing what the Word says and not just hear it only.
Hearing the Word but not doing anything is of no use.
Jesus gave us a perfect example. After He finished praying, He would often get up and start His day with His disciples.
It would be spiritual laziness to spend the entire time praying and doing nothing.
Even God works!
God spent the day creating the world and retiring in the “night.”
Let’s stop deceiving ourselves as if prayers solve everything without acting or working.
Let’s get to work out our faith with some works.
Amen!
Don’t stop praying!
Don’t stop praying!
Pray every time you can. Pray anywhere. Pray everywhere. Pray when it makes sense and when it does not make sense.
Keep Praying!
Pray for guidance. Pray for a lead in life
Pray to God. Pray in the name of Jesus.
In the name of Jesus, every knee shall bow, and every tongue shall confess that Jesus is the Lord.
Don’t stop praying in the name of Jesus even when you don’t see the result immediately.
So, pray until you see situations changing until you see the effects. And even after you see the signs of your prayers working, never stop still.
Pray again!

The life of man on earth 6.0 (the discouragement)
Some people barely live their life, and many are almost giving up on life.
Trust me, I am right there with you, but Job was much more right there with you.
Job experienced the most bizarre situation in life when he lost everything in a day. Everything!
Job’s wife told him to “curse God and die” That’s his wife telling Job to give up!
Then Job’s wife said to him, “Do you still retain your integrity? Curse God and die!” Job 2:9
I believe Job wouldn’t expect this elevated level of discouragement, but he wasn’t discouraged.
The bible says that Job did not sin against God despite all his calamities.
Life is not that easy.
You made every effort to succeed, but there are many challenges and discouragement easily set in. You are not alone.
Job’s friends did not help the matter. Instead, they make it worse. I know some friends are not encouraging in times of need. Job had a similar experience too. So, you are not alone.
David was so stressed because everyone that surrounded him was against him, but he encouraged himself. Encourage yourself too!
Jesus was also stressed out in His last days that he persuaded the disciples to pray. No, they didn’t! And the temptation was too much for them to bear as they all abandoned Him when He needed them most.
So, you are not alone; I am sure of this. Many people are going through what you are passing right now.
Be strong and take courage because there is always light at the end of the tunnel.
Peace!
