A TRIGGER TO PUSH YOU FORWARD

 NO CHALLENGE IS A WASTE, BUT RATHER A SHOOT, A TRIGGER TO PUSH YOU FORWARD | SO NEVER LET THE FIRES OF LIFE SMELL ON YOU | YOU'VE PUT ON CHRIST, LIKE YOU'D PUT ON A CHRISTIAN DIOR LUXURY PERFUME | THINK LIKE THIS, EVERYDAY


To begin with, Galatians 3:27 iterates something so important, it says, “For as many of you as have been baptised (positioned and dipped permanently) into Christ have PUT ON CHRIST”. Then in 2 Corinthians 2:14 |TLB, Paul now recounts, “But thanks be to God! For through what Christ has done, he has triumphed over us so that now wherever we go he uses us to tell others about the Lord and to spread the Gospel like a SWEET PERFUME”


As a child of God, you'll go through the fires, but never let the smoke smell on you. This is the Hallmark of faith, commitment to the word (perfume) of God regardless. You're not exempt from challenges because you're a child of God. Actually, it's because you're a child of God that you'll face challenges, it's a shortcut to a life of Influence and great strength. 


In Mark 10:29-30, while Jesus spoke these precious words to His disciples, He highlighted the promise and certainty of persecution. It reads, 

   “And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's, But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, WITH PERSECUTION ; and in the world to come eternal life”.


Throughout the bible, whenever God's people were burdened or persecuted, the next thing that happened was a supernatural growth and a great spreading. The pressures always triggered something totally unexpected. 


In 2 Corinthians 8:1-3 |MSB, Apostle Paul wrote these words of encouragement to the saints in collose — “Now, friends, I want to report on the surprising and generous ways in which God is working in the churches in Macedonia province. fierce troubles (challenges) came down on the people of those churches, pushing them to the very limit. the trial exposed their true colors : .... THE PRESSURE TRIGGERED SOMETHING TOTALLY UNEXPECTED ..... . I was there and saw it for myself. THEY GAVE .... MORE THAN THEY COULD AFFORD!”


Right from the days of Pharaoh to the days where the church was greatly persecuted, it has always resulted in something big, wonderful and totally unexpected, the supernatural. From today, begin to see challenges as triggers that move you forward, never see it as a disadvantage.


   Remember the Hebrew boys who were thrown into the fires of Babylon, and reminisce on the crowds they pulled just by the miracle of grace that rested on their lives. Listen, trust God's word and you'll never be common again, it'll make you a force and a wonder in your world.  


Daniel 3:27 | ERV continues the train of thought in this wise,

   “When they came out, the satraps, prefects, governors, and royal advisors crowded around them. They could see that the fire had not burned Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Their bodies were not burned at all. Their hair was not burned, and their robes were not burned. They didn’t even smell as if they had been near fire” .


   Pass through the fires of life with gusto but never let it have power over you. Never give room for the contrary to display on the screen of your life. In Romans 8:18 |TPT, Paul assures the saints with candid expressions, he wrote “I am convinced that any suffering we endure is less than nothing compared to the magnitude of glory that is about to be unveiled within us”. 


My dear, are you convinced like Paul was, are you convinced the fires will end, are you convinced it has no power over you. My goodness, if you could only see the end of all things in the word, it'll shape your thinking to rest in every situation. 


   Dress well, speak well, smell descent and be full of goodly words because you're a king. Never allow this world's challenges smell on you, overpower it with the right consciousness of how God sees you, overpower it with the aroma of Christ Jesus. 


God's word says “They didn’t even smell as if they had been near fire”. O' Hallelujah. Wow!

WHEN TIME IS OLD ENOUGH, UNTIL THEN....

  THE MATURITY OF TIME : WHEN TIME IS OLD ENOUGH TO HOST (HANDLE) YOUR MANIFESTATION!        Can I tell you something? . (waiting....) : Alright, thank you. :)  There's this wisdom you should know very early so you don't hurt (shipwreck) yourself in this walk of faith. Now this is it : “Never try to prove a point to anyone in your growth process”. A two week old mustard tree should not have to try to explain itself to other birds of it's capabilities, by hosting them on its branches at a juvenile stage. Though someday that tree will host thousands of birds, at the wrong time, the weight will only destroy it's future.        It is same with that young 5year old boy whose friends at school keep forcing him to prove a point to them that the bugatti his dad willed to him really belonged to him. Now the attempt of that boy to prove a point by driving that bugatti at that infantile stage could lead to his death. This is the knowledge we each n...

WHERE IS MY SCHOOL BAG

WHERE IS MY SCHOOL BAG — PLEASE WHERE IS IT , HURRY, HURRY, DADDY IS WAITING FOR ME!  My dear, someday we'll all return home like a little boy with his two arms swinging through his school bag, but the joy of our transition will be dependent on what we each did with our time in school (our world) and what we used our break hours for : we'll say to one another, this faithful saying and true — where's my school bag, where's my school bag, hurry : where are the souls I won, where are the people I followed up on to church, hurry please, daddy is calling me, it's time - it's time, I'm going home.  Indeed, we'll be going home someday, and everyday ushers us closer to the ringing of that closing bell. And say like Reuben (in Genesis 44:34) : I ought to come to this firm realization and focus :       “ How can I go back to my (Heavenly) Father if the boy (my generation) is not with me? No! Do not let me see (return to) the misery (shame) that would come upon my...

DAYSTAR ON EMOTIONAL TSUNAMIS

  DAYSTAR ON EMOTIONAL TSUNAMIS Why many people will still have unplanned emotional or sexual affairs with their ex-es, even after marriage. In Matthew 5:25-27 Jesus provided the solution,         “Make peace (come to terms, agree, admit) with your adversary (MISTAKES) QUICKLY , while you are on the way with him, lest your adversary (EXPERIENCES) deliver you to the JUDGE , the judge hand you over to the OFFICER , and you be thrown into PRISON . Assuredly, I say to you, YOU WILL BY NO MEANS GET OUT OF THERE till you have paid the last penny. “You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not commit ADULTERY (or today's fornication) .’ This conversation of making peace with your adversary is metaphorical of coming to terms with whatever wrongs might have happened to you : could be a conflicted relationship, a sexual escapade or a scandal — here : don't try to fix yourself mentally, nor should you deny it happened, rather, only deny that thing p...
