Cover Over Covering

I am not sure about you but we need to really sit up as believers in our walk with God and also stand in the gap for the church. The world has no issues diversifying the magnitude of its havoc but then the church is being turned into a cover for many us and no longer the covering which the blood wrought.

  • We do not take care of our families (covering)and then we come and pay tithes (cover) and pick up announcements on the alter.
  • We sleep with fellow married and unmarried brethren and then usher people into pews on service days with holy smiles
  • We lie and gossip and then pick up the microphone and close our eyes in worship ministrations
  • …….. the list is endless

Service will never replace the Foundation that stands sure” they that name the name of the Lord must depart from evil

I receive grace in Jesus name. Receive yours

Mentoring Privilege

5 Comments

Mentoring is not about people’e inadequacy. How often time we (me) forget to see that when people look up to us or consult our opinions ( rare privilege from God)it is not because they want to be like us or is it room for us to try to reproduce ourselves in them. No!

Mentoring is about letting people discover the potentials deposited in them; allowing them to draw out of their wells and not try or force to create mini inadequate versions of our yet to be perfect self.

To all mentors out there, use the opportunity well. Do not insult this PRIVILEGE!

 

My Marriage Compatibility List

Often I have heard and been taught that before picking a spouse you need to look out for Compatibility areas. So, since it is a life time journey, from my readings and inspiration, i came up with this compatibility list.

  1. Spiritual Compatibility  (Amos 3:3)
  2. Financial Compatibilty ( Heb 13:5, Matt6:24 , Prov 17:16)
  3. Character Compatibility (Prov 22:24)
  4. Emotional Compatibility (Prov 27:17)
  5. Communication Compatibility ( Eph 4:26, Prov 18:13)
  6. Physical Compatibility (1 Pet 3:3-4, Gen 24:16, Gen 29:17, I sam 16:12, Est 2:7)

And there we have it. Still not sure if Educational compatibility should be included. Let me know what you think or if you have other prime compatibility or supporting scriptures. 🙂

Missing Out On Purpose

It is oftentimes easy to miss out on purpose when we meet some that matches our passion and dreams. We have to be careful not to miss out on the purpose for which ,God created the meeting. #Inquiry

Life they say begins with a meeting

They met in church. Never really spoke spoke to each other but every gaze was defined. It had deep rooted visible meanings not just to her but to all that saw. This is perfect. God knows how to answer prayers that keep all the compatibility checks in place( spiritual, emotional, financial, communication … add to her list)

It seemed like everything she prayed for. Their purpose and passions we so in line and yes they were all serving in church. Church doesn’t kill the demons we have Christ does. Things seemed great till other girls furry grew. Unknown to her his past and present fondling’s with them was the cause. How do you do church and still try to play “Christ”.

She talked to him about it. Her zeal for God seemed to trim the sloppiness of his faith. Time and age was pressing on their relationship. Insecurities set in and pride took over. Pride and love cannot co-exist. Never. Too many emotional wounds and blackmails grew. Compromise was beginning to have foothold. The strong hold had to be broken. We often want to impose our answers on God and yet ask for His “Will”. They had to sit down and be honest with each other. They were trying to impose on destiny and not pursue destiny. They parted ways and remain distant friends and now both basking in the Glory of His goodness. If live makes their part cross again, good but if not purpose is being lived in their separate lives
