Your destiny designed by God.

Exodus 2:1-3 NKJV

And a man of the house of Levi went and took as  wife a daughter of Levi. So the woman conceived and bore a son. And when she saw that he was a beautiful child, she hid him three months. But when she could no longer hide him, she took an ark of bulrushes for him, daubed it with asphalt and pitch, put the child in it, and laid it in the reeds by the river’s bank.

Shalom! Day #59. Do you know that your birth is a fulfillment for the plans and purposes of God? Let's pray. Father, in the name of Jesus we want to thank You for positioning us into Your wonderful and marvelous plan. In Jesus name we ask and pray. Amen!

For every child that comes into this world, they come In with a pre set destiny and purpose. They will only understand their destiny and purpose when they accept Jesus as their personal Savior. Because only Jesus can unveils their destiny and purpose. Moses, he was predestined to be the leader, to lead Israel out of Egypt into the promised land. He was the chosen one. Likewise, you are born with a mandate, purpose and destiny that needs to be accomplished.

Each one of us are unique and special in the eyes of God. Fearfully and wonderfully made. He knew you even before you were formed in your mothers womb. Your destiny is your choice. To know the purpose you are created, you must have Jesus. Your life is hidden in Him. Seek Him and know your destiny.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

Men's disappointments, God's divine appointments!

Genesis 45:5, 7-8 NKJV

But now, do not therefore be grieved or angry with yourselves because you sold me here; for God sent me before you to preserve life. And God sent me before you to preserve a posterity for you in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance. So now it  was not you who sent me here, but God; and He has made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt.

Shalom! Day #58. Do you know that when men meant to harm you, God is able to turn it into a blessing to you? Let's pray. Father in the name of Jesus we come to You. We commit our lives into the hands of Miracle Maker, Jesus. In Jesus name we ask and pray. Amen!

Folks, do not  be grieved or angry with what people around you about to do or have done. Instead give thanks to God for He has preserved you from every fiery darts of those who meant to harm you. God Is able to change a bad situation into a good situation. God is able to change a curse into a blessing. God is able to change disappointments into divine appointments! Instead of sitting and thinking about the situation, began to give thanks. A shaft testimony to affirm what I share here. I went through the worst situation during this past 3 days. So many unbearable disappointments. Being invited and rejected, but hey, was accepted by God. God changed the disappointments into divine appointments when you step out in faith to see the unseen miracles which He has prepared.

Every thread has a purpose. As the weaver weave each colored thread, of becomes a beautiful design. Every events that's happened in our lives has a purpose and a reason. God allows it to happen to bring us Into spiritual maturity. Joseph's brothers meant harm for him, but allowed it because through Joseph, He has a divine plan!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

The Lord was with him...

Genesis 39:20-23 NKJV

Then Joseph’s master took him and put him into the prison, a place where the king’s prisoners were confined. And he was there in the prison. But the Lord was with Joseph and showed him mercy, and He gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison. And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph’s hand all the prisoners who were in the prison; whatever they did there, it was his doing. The keeper of the prison did not look into anything that  was under Joseph’s authority, because the Lord was with him; and whatever he did, the Lord made it prosper.

******
Shalom! Day #57. Do you know that if God is with you, everything you do, it prospers? Let's pray. Father we come to You today in the name of Jesus and we pray help us to be close to you as we walk with You. That we may prosper in everything we do in Your name! In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

What was Joseph's secret? I can say here it is the fellowship he had with God. That's the main point. Even when Joseph was in his fathers house, Jacob, God communicated through dreams of what Joseph's future would be. The unbroken fellowship Joseph had with God has brought favor upon him. Even after he was sold by his brothers, the statement of the bible says, THE LORD WAS WITH HIM! When the Lord is with us, the favor of God Is automatically imparted to us. Wherever we go what ever we do, we will prosper and will have favor with God and with man.

The second reason he prospered and found favor is, he was faithful to the responsibilities given to him. He did not take it lightly, but he did it with all his heart! When you are given a responsibility, be responsible to it and do it with all your heart. When you do it with all your heart, you shall reap what you have sowed! Either in serving God, or In secular world, be faithful in carrying the task and responsibilities entrusted to you, and you will see the unstoppable favor of God upon your life, work, ministry, studies and family. Even when Joseph was tempted by Potiphars wife, he did not take advantage of that situation because the fear of God was in him.

Our faithfulness is first and foremost to God and His ministry and His will. Then, comes the rest. Matthew 6:33 says But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Do not neglect your fellowship to God!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

Travail and prevail...

Genesis 32:24-29 NKJV

Then Jacob was left alone; and a Man wrestled with him until the breaking of day. Now when He saw that He did not prevail against him, He touched the socket of his hip; and the socket of Jacob’s hip was out of joint as He wrestled with him. And He said, “Let Me go, for the day breaks.” But he said, “I will not let You go unless You bless me!” So He said to him, “What is your name?” He said, “Jacob.” And He said, “Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for you have struggled with God and with men, and have prevailed.” Then Jacob asked, saying, “Tell me Your name, I pray.” And He said, “Why is it that you ask about My name?” And He blessed him there.

Shalom! Day #56. Do you know that when you want something, or pray for something, and if you never let God go, you will see the answers of the prayers? P.U.S.H = Pray Until Something Happens. Let's pray. Father in the name of Jesus we pray that let us not go weary in praying or even give up in prayers. As we travailed and prevailed in prayers, we shall see the result, the miracles!

Jacob was left alone and a Man wrestled with him. When you are alone and you began to pray and praise, the presence of God is there, in that infinite presence of God, when you grab hold of God's leg and pray unceasingly, you will see your prayers being answered. Miracles only happens for those who travail in prayer and believe for a miracle. Pray Until Something Happen. Never let go, never give up. When you prayer don't just simply pray, pray a prayer that moves God's hand. Wrestle with God in prayer! This is what Jacob did when he don't know where to run, what to do. He pray and praise.

The struggles we go through, as we walk with God, is for a purpose and a reason. He moulds our live according to every events that's happened in our live, bringing us into maturity physically and also spiritually. The Greek meaning for Israel is "he shall be a prince of God." The Hebrew meaning is "My God prevails or He struggled with God." When struggled or wrestled with God in prayer, you shall receive your miracle. In this case Jacob was a prince of God. When you prevail, the crown of victory is waiting for you. Do you believe in a miracle? I don't. But I believe in the Miracle Maker.... Jesus! Come on. Get and pray Till you see something happen! Never give up. Do not accept defeat as a fact, but travail and prevail in prayer and praise till God brings about a miracle!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

I will bring you back!

Genesis 28:15 NKJV

Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land; for I will not leave you until I have done what I have spoken to you.”

******
Shalom! Day #55. Do you know that no matter how far we run, God still pulls us back to Him, aligned us once again to His plans, purposes and promises concerning our lives? Let us pray. Father in the name of Jesus we ask of you today, never ever let us go from Your presence, plans, purposes, promised and Your will. In Jesus name we ask and pray. Amen!

"I will neither leave you nor forsake you. I that have started a good work in you, is faithful and will accomplish it." Does this verses rings a bell? This is the promises of Jesus to us. No matted how far we tend to run from the call of God, He is still WITH us and KEEPS us, preserves us, protects us, we secures us. He is with us. The moment we acknowledges God in our lives, enthroned in our lives, be the Savior of our lives, He is with us. The moment He Is with us, He keeps us in His hands no matter how far we run. There is a reason why He never let go and keeps us. To see His promises accomplished in our lives. To see His plans and purposes be established and activated in our lives.

No matter how far we run, He says, "I will BRING you back to this land!" Psalms 139:1-4, 7-8 NKJV O Lord , You have searched me and known me. You know my sitting down and my rising up; You understand my thought afar off. You comprehend my path and my lying down, And are acquainted with all my ways. For there  is not a word on my tongue, But behold, O Lord , You know it altogether. Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence? If I ascend into heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are  there. King David says this. God will brings us back to this land, meaning to say, God will bring is back to His plans, His purposes, His will, and His promises! Even to the wormhole, He will find us! Amen!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

Will you go to that extend?

Genesis 24:6-7, 10-11, 13-16, 18-20 NKJV

But Abraham said to him, “Beware that you do not take my son back there. The Lord God of heaven, who took me from my father’s house and from the land of my family, and who spoke to me and swore to me, saying, ‘To your descendants I give this land,’ He will send His angel before you, and you shall take a wife for my son from there. Then the servant took ten of his master’s camels and departed, for all his master’s goods were  in his hand. And he arose and went to Mesopotamia, to the city of Nahor. And he made his camels kneel down outside the city by a well of water at evening time, the time when women go out to draw water.  Behold, here  I stand by the well of water, and the daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water. Now let it be that the young woman to whom I say, ‘Please let down your pitcher that I may drink,’ and she says, ‘Drink, and I will also give your camels a drink’— let her be  the  one You have appointed for Your servant Isaac. And by this I will know that You have shown kindness to my master.” And it happened, before he had finished speaking, that behold, Rebekah, who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham’s brother, came out with her pitcher on her shoulder. Now the young woman was very beautiful to behold, a virgin; no man had known her. And she went down to the well, filled her pitcher, and came up. So she said, “Drink, my lord.” Then she quickly let her pitcher down to her hand, and gave him a drink. And when she had finished giving him a drink, she said, “I will draw water for your camels also, until they have finished drinking.” Then she quickly emptied her pitcher into the trough, ran back to the well to draw water, and drew for all his camels.

Shalom! Day #54. Do you know that you must be specific with God when make a prayer request even though God knows every single move of your life? Let's pray. Father we thank You for this day. As we study Your word help us to be specific and truthful with You Lord. In Jesus name we ask and pray. Amen!

But Abraham said to him, “Beware that you do not take my son back there. The Lord God of heaven, who took me from my father’s house and from the land of my family... I can summarize this verse to this proverb found in Proverbs 26:11 NKJV As a dog returns to his own vomit, So a fool repeats his folly. God has taken you out of darkness into His marvelous light for a reason and purpose. Here, Abraham is commanding his servant not to bring back Isaac back to Abraham's family but to bring one out from there. The reason Abraham warned his eldest servant not to bring Isaac to his fathers house because the Lord promised to Abraham concerning the Canaan land. ‘To your descendants I give this land,’. If Isaac goes back to his origin it means like Lot going back to Sodom. It would be breaking God's will and command to Abraham. The moment God called you out of darkness into His marvelous light, there is a reason and purpose for it. Have you recognized the reason and purpose? For Abraham is the promised land. No matter what happens, he still clinging on to God's promises. Same goes to us, when God calls you out, hold on to his promises until you see of become reality in your life. NEVER RETURN TO WHERE YOU CAME FROM! It would be like you breaking His will and purposes upon our lives.

Then the servant took ten of his master’s camels and departed, for all his master’s goods were  in his hand. And he arose and went to Mesopotamia, to the city of Nahor. And he made his camels kneel down outside the city by a well of water at evening time, the time when women go out to draw water.  Behold, here  I stand by the well of water, and the daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water. Now let it be that the young woman to whom I say, ‘Please let down your pitcher that I may drink,’ and she says, ‘Drink, and I will also give your camels a drink’— let her be  the  one You have appointed for Your servant Isaac. 

=> This is the act of the servant. He took 10 camels in search for a bride for Isaac. He prayed specifically for what he wanted for Isaac. Rebekah, a woman of godly character but not without her human weakness. Rebekah, inspired by nothing more than a caring heart, drew water not only for the servant but also for his camel's. Supplying water for thirsty camels is a very demanding and tiring job. Rebekah, who was described as very beautiful, put herself through a lot of hard work for no apparent gain. She was a woman of godly character. Something great worth in God's sight, as it is writen in 1 Peter 3:3-4 NKJV Do not let your adornment be merely outward—arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel— rather let  it  be  the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God. 

As a man and woman of God, the greatest investment you can make in your life is that of a godly character. Let the word of God remould your life. It's in seeking God that you will find fulfillment. As you seek the kingdom of God all other things will be added unto you. This Is the secret to a fulfilled life that so many man and women have missed. The godliness in Rebekah is what opened the door to her destiny. She was not sitting there and complaining of her situation, but rather allowed the love of God to shape her life. As the fruit of the spirit takes root in your life so shall the favor of God follow. As you draw close to God, God will draw close to you. When God Is close to you, favor will follow!

The characteristics of Rebekah is :-
1. A caring woman
2. A godly woman
3. A praying woman
4. A good helper
5. A hardworking woman
6. A woman who dares to do something new
7. A woman with patience and endurance.

There may be more, but is what I saw in her. As a man and woman of God, we got to have such good qualities we see in Rebekah.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!

Hineni...

Genesis 22:1-2, 7-8, 14, 16-18 NKJV

Now it came to pass after these things that God tested Abraham, and said to him, “Abraham!” And he said, “Here I am.” Then He said, “Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you.” But Isaac spoke to Abraham his father and said, “My father!” And he said, “Here I am, my son.” Then he said, “Look, the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?” And Abraham said, “My son, God will provide for Himself the lamb for a burnt offering.” So the two of them went together. And Abraham called the name of the place, The- Lord -Will-Provide; as it is said to this day, “In the Mount of the Lord it shall be provided.” and said: “By Myself I have sworn, says the Lord , because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son — blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your descendants as the stars of the heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies. In your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.

Shalom! Day #53. Do you know that there is reason for everything which God asks us to do? Either a blessing or a miracle is awaiting for those who obey and do. Let's pray. Father, we pray that you will help us to walk in obedience to Your will. In Jesus name we ask and pray. Amen!

Now it came to pass after these things that God tested Abraham... after what things? After everything that Abraham went through - getting out of his country, separated from his father and Lot, chased Hagar and Ishmael away - after all this painful events he went through, he didn't make it as a reason for not being available for God. The moment God called Abraham, he replied HERE I AM. Now this word HERE I AM  in Hebrew is HINENI which means, here I am Lord, your servant, not because I am forced to be, but because of love i am willing to do anything for You. Without looking at his situations and condition, the moment God called him, Abraham willingly answered HINENI. And he took the next task which God has for him - to sacrifice Isaac. Our availability to God every moment He calls us to do something shows our obedience to Him.

Now God says, “Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you.” Aha... how many of you willing to do so if God says that to you? Many of us say, Lord we want to serve you, or Lord here I am use me, but when God touches the most dearest part of our life - it can either be a person, a relationship, a habit, our comfort zone - we tend to say, Lord please do not ask me to do that, or to let go of that. We have our Isaacs as well. God said to Abraham to go to the land of Moriah. Moriah means the land of temptations, the ordained place, the teaching place. God tested Abrahams faith and his faithfulness at Moriah, and he did not disappoint God. And when Isaac asks “My father!” And he said, “Here I am, my son.” Then he said, “Look, the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?” Abraham answered, GOD WILL PROVIDE. This is a statement of faith. Even this faith was activated when Abraham told his slave boys, WE WILL GO....and WE WILL COME BACK. His confidence is in the Lord. God provides, when he called you. But He doesn't say in the beginning, I provide this for you, so you go and do it now. Nope. Never. He will not do that. He test our faith 1st, are we willing to obey and step out in faith or not. Then after stepping out in faith, them God reveals the plans and the provisions. The result of our obedience to God can cause an eternal blessings. It moves God's heart when we obey and do His will. “By Myself I have sworn, says the Lord , because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son — blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your descendants as the stars of the heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies. In your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
