APOSTOLIC EMPOWERMENT & BLESSINGS;

Faith is not sitting still and calling it trust,

Faith is movement, with prayer in your heart and effort in your hands,

God never asked you not to do anything,

He said, "Watch and pray.",

An irresponsible faith folds its arms and waits for miracles,

A living faith wakes up early,
Works hard,
Stays honest, and trusts God with the rest,

You plant the seed,
God sends the rain,
You take the step,
God orders the path,

You give your best,
God gives His power,
Stop blaming God for what discipline should fix,

Stop praying for open doors you refuse to knock on,

Do what is within your strength,

Leave what is beyond you in God’s hands,

There is no doubt,
That's true faith,

The Lord said “Faith without works is dead”,

You’ve prayed,
It's high time to hit the road,

You’ll surely be fine this time,

The Lord God Almighty shall prosper the works of your hands,

Nothing shall die and nothing shall go down in your hands again,

Your little efforts, struggles and labours shall surely produce great and multiple results and harvests this time in Christ Jesus Mighty Name,

Blessed morning, Happy new week and happy new month in Christ Jesus Mighty Name.

I LEFT CHURCH , NOT GOD. A THOUGHT TO REFLECT ON.

A few weeks ago, I shared a post asking why people stop going to church. Recently, a man approached me and said:
“Sister, I saw your post. Some of us still love God. We left church, but we did not leave God.” I asked him gently, "How is that possible?" He explained that people in the church
do terrible things. So, I asked him another question: "Are you perfect?"
He replied, " I am still better
than them even though I don’t go to church.”That response revealed something important .

Church was never meant for perfect people.
If it were, no one would qualify. The Church is a
place for sinners who know they need grace, healing, correction, and growth.

Then I shared a story with him: A man once said,
“I have left the fire, but I am still warm.” Someone asked, " How is that possible ?" He answered
“I took a burning coal from the fire and walked away. The fire is no longer necessary.”

At first, the coal was still hot.
It still gave light.
It still looked alive.
But with time, the warmth faded.
The light went out.
The coal became cold.
The truth became clear:
You can not stay warm when you separate yourself from the fire. This is the danger of saying " l left church but not God "

God is the source, yes,
but the Church is where the fire is kept burning:
where the Word is taught
where faith is strengthened
where believers sharpen one another.
You may still pray for a while. You may still feel close to God
for some time. But God did not
design faith to survive in isolation. Christianity is not a solo journey. God calls us into a body, a family, a community.

Leaving the Church because of people’s attitudes does not mean you chose God, it often
means you were focused on people in the first place.
People will fail, People will
disappoint. But Christ remains faithful.

You don’t leave God by words, but separating yourself from the place where faith is nourished slowly affects the heart. Stay close to the fire.

*PSYCHOLOGY OF ANGER*

I love this and I thought of sharing it with you.

A professor while teaching, asked his students, “Why do we shout in anger? Why do people shout at each other when they are upset?”
The students thought for awhile. One said, “because we lose our calmness.” But the professor asked again, “why shout when the other person is just next to you? Isn't it possible to speak to him or her with a soft voice? Why do you shout at a person when you are angry?”
The students gave some other reasons but none satisfied the professor.
Finally, he explained, "when two people are angry at each other, there is a distance in their heart psychologically. To cover the distance, they must shout to be able to hear each other. The angrier they are, the stronger they will shout to hear each other through that great distance.”
Then the professor asked, ''what happens when two people fall in love?
They don't shout at each other but talk softly, why? Because their hearts are psychologically close. The distance between them is very close.” The professor continued, "when they love each other even more, what happens? They don't speak, they only whisper and they even get closer to each other in their love.
Finally, they even need not to whisper, they only look at each other and that's all...” So, next time you shout on a loved one know that you are creating distance between your heart and that person's heart.
Pls share with as many friends as you can. You may be healing a hot-tempered person today... Enjoy every moment, life is easy...

I saw this in a WhatsApp group that I belong to and think a larger society needs it. Please read and be blessed:

*An elderly man went to a hospital for his routine medical check up. When his Blood Pressure was taken, it was 120/80.*

The doctor on duty who was awestruck picked up the result and looked at it over and over again for about 10 minutes, and said, “Sir, this is unbelievable! You have an incredible BP. Does it mean you don’t go through any stress at all? What’s the secret?”

The man smiled and said, “this has been your colleagues’ question overtime. I have always told them that it was a gift from God, which is correct in actual sense. But let me tell you what has been making that gift work.

I can’t wait to know the secret, the doctor interjected.

“When I was young, my father taught me that if I want to overcome negative S, I must embrace two positive S.

The doctor who was eager to know those S interrupted him again. What are the negative and positive S, Sir?

“The negative S includes: stress, sickness, sorrow, suffering, etc. My dad said, if I could manage stress, I won’t have much health challenge. I later discovered he was telling me the truth as I embraced his two positive S. The man paused.

I hope no problem, Sir? The doctor asked.

“No problem, doctor. I remembered my glorious dad of a blessed memory. He was a great man, doctor.

“The positive S includes: Smile and Silence. Smile can solve problem and Silence can avoid problems. To achieve this, you must:

“Select the right people to travel with you in your journey of life at all times and make your life sweeter.

“On deity, choose the Almighty God. Thereafter, if you fail to achieve your dreams, change your ways, not your God. The trees change their leaves and not their roots.

“Stop looking Sideways when you are emotionally distracted. You will never reach your destination if you stop and throw stones at every dog that barks.

“Sayings of people should not work you up. Even when haters see you walking on water they will say it’s because you can't swim. If you like, dance on the water, they will accuse you of raising dust.

“Start to live a quiet life; mind your own business; and work with your own hands.

“Social cleanliness rule is, never wrestle with a pig. Though, both of you will get dirty, but the pig enjoys it.

“So, knowing all these, I always Smile and keep Silence. That’s the secret!”

“WOW! In my entire life I have never met a man like you. I want to see more of you. Now I know that greater lessons are learnt outside the classroom, the doctor concluded.

Stay Blessed.

Do have a great journey in life full of peace, harmony and love always.
