#FRIDAY’S SPIRITUAL NUGGETS WHAT IS YOUR WORD?


Image result for what is the word that God gave to you? scripture images

The last few months of my life have been a little shaky, on so many fronts, and in the midst of it, I’ve been studying the book of Isaiah, discovering words that were made just for me, on days just for me (Smiles)
Some of my favorites are:
Isa 46:4 (TLB)
 I will be your God through all your lifetime, yes, even when your hair is white with age. I made you and I will care for you. I will carry you along and be your Savior.
Isa 29:17 (TLB)
Soon-and it will not be very long-the wilderness of Lebanon will be a fruitful field again, a lush and fertile forest.
I’ve come to the conclusion that a Christian who has no scriptural words to tackle situations is like a farmer without a hoe, or worse still a soldier who has a gun which is empty of bullets.
And so, the question this Friday is to the Christian reading this…what is your word?
What has God told you about the situation you’re in?
What is that passage of scripture you’re holding on to?
If you don’t have any, I’d suggest you pray and ask God to show you where ‘it is written concerning you’, and only because that will be your stabilizer, through rough and turbulent times. 
As someone said 'God's plan for your life far exceeds the circumstances of your day'. If one doesn't find out those plans, of course the circumstances of the day might be overwhelming.
Read the words in the picture again (*smiles*smiles*smiles).

Lateral Thinking with FEMI OLADELE

Blessed trinity; how many times and in how many ways? How convenient it is for me to try to estimate the virtues that the presence of GOD exudes; in ignorance obviously. Can you imagine the power of HIS might? And HE took me through a journey of understanding and I failed HIS test, because my human ability is frail and fails. Only a supernatural understanding of GOD as the three-in-one GOD appearing as: Our help in ages past; Our hope for years to come; and Our very present help in time of need. If you therefore need help, fetch from the fullness thereof; it is inexhaustible yet with a price. Many misconstrue the gifts of GOD as free; I presume, it is cheap and affordable but not free. The difference between HIM and his arch rival is that the latter charges high interests like Deposit Money Banks (DMBs) in Nigeria. GOD pays premium however; if you have to choose; choose LIFE and BLESSING. It is not without challenges that this life we live, that I live, actually.

#PROSE MONDAY# THE LINE

There is an arbitrary line, which once you cross, you know in your heart that you can’t step back. This is for those of us who have crossed that line and now, are somewhere betwixt full fruition and total loss… ‘If I did not dream, it would have been acceptable, If I didn’t nurse these thoughts to maturity, I would be flawlessly faultless, And if I had used adequate contraception to intercept this zygotic dream, this musing would be absolutely unnecessary, But the truth is, right now, I have lost the right to give up and as a matter of necessity, I have to reach the other line- the finish line. In and out of the labour ward, that has to be my future route. Now whether or not there’d be an after party, that’s seemingly irrelevant. Provided my baby is born! And although, like hyperbaric oxygen, the O ₂ of fierce thoughts roll through  my mind at an extremely high pressure, I have to stand. And yet, if a lumber puncture is done on my mind, there is a si...

RESOURCEFULNESS

We all have about 6 needs, which we have to uncover, not necessarily create: ·          CERTAINTY ·          UNCERTAINTY ·          SIGNIFICANCE ·          CONNECTION & LOVE ·          GROWTH ·          CONTRIBUTION, WHICH IS BEYOND OURSELVES The first 4 needs don’t necessarily bring about fulfillment but the last two do. You can have all the comfort/certainty in the world and still remain unfulfilled. You could even switch over to variety i.e. uncertainty-yes, you’ld get adrenaline pumping through your veins, but it’ld be temporary. Significance? We all try to find significance, be it through achievements or by gaining recognition as one thing or the other. Connection is a beautiful thing and love is very accepting, irrespectiv...
