Fear or Courage?

"7- The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction. My son, hear the instruction of thy father, and forsake not the law of thy mother: For they shall be an ornament of grace unto thy head, and chains about thy neck."(Proverbs 1:7-9 KJV)

Godly knowledge, wisdom, instructions and the good advised of our parents should not be neglected. The Word of God is the only source of divine wisdom... We need to be in touch through His Word.

"For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind." (2 Timothy 1:7 KJV)

Ambition

Ambition is like a horse with a carriage, it carries a burden while it travels down the trod.

Ambition is what made me work hard to my temporal destinations

Ambition will either make you or break you.

Bible Reading

For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world; Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; (Titus 2:11-13 KJV)

Joshua in the Making

"Now after the death of Moses the servant of the Lord it came to pass, that the Lord spake unto Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' minister, saying, Moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel." (Joshua 1:1, 2 KJV)

1- The Mourning is Over for Joshua

Death- the death of Moses brought in a new leadership for the Israelites.

Discouragement- must be a stepping stone and must not put us down.

Depression- is the common outcome from death in the family.

2- The Message was Overwhelming for Joshua. 

You follow the man who followed the man.

"And there arose not a prophet since in Israel like unto Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face"(Deuteronomy 34:10 KJV)

We are His Light

"4- In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5-And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not." (John 1:4, 5 KJV)

If Jesus is the light of the world. There's no one else who could give us life but Him. It's clear as crystal- if you have Jesus you have life, you have the light and the truth of God. Religion is not the light, the founders of any belief or religious group is not the light and not even  the church. The world is in darkness, in turmoil and in confusion, but amidst all the negative things that happens in our lives; we refused the light of the world- Jesus. And the sad thing is we refused to be the light bearer. Jesus said, "Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying,  I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life." (John 8:12 KJV)

When Your Sailing is in Danger Who Do You Believe In?

"Now when much time was spent, and when sailing was now dangerous, because the fast was now already past, Paul admonished them, And said unto them, Sirs, I perceive that this voyage will be with hurt and much damage, not only of the lading and ship, but also of our lives. Nevertheless the centurion believed the master and the owner of the ship, more than those things which were spoken by Paul." (Acts 27:9-11 KJV)

You sail, you toiled and work hard for a purpose, but did you pray, and did you entrust everything to God?

There are those who prophesies like Paul. Some are persecutors and oppressors, while others are performers in the sight of God and man. But what is your part in God's kingdom? We need to stand together in our journey to God's kingdom. We must be kingdom focus.
