Where do you stand? Are you walking in His will, or doing your own thing, living your own life? What have you been ordained to do or to be? Are you tracking in that lane, taking each day that comes as a gift, a privilege, and a task part of a broader assignment only to be accomplished by you? Many times, we go on to postpone what we were to engage in today as if we have the assurance of tomorrow for ourselves.

We should never forget that in Him we live, move, and have our being (Acts 17:28). Thus, we should live for Him all the way, obedient and willing to perform His purposes even as we walk by faith in this journey. After all, whenever that attitude prevails, He goes ahead of us in every season, fights for us, and watches over us. What is it that we do not owe to Him? Lord teach us to number our days, that we may get us a heart of wisdom (Psalms 90:12AMP).

Good Morning. 

Cause me to feel Your Presence whenever doubt besiege my inner self. Let Your gentle touch and whisper of guidance provide me with the needed assurance to press forward as I determine to do Your will. At any given time in my journey, keep the eyes of my heart open so that I am always connected with You. This way, fear will never attempt to cloud my horizon or being. I will focus on what You called me into, that which I am born for. Let Your hand lead me in righteousness whilst Your Spirit carries me. Only then will I emerge fruitful and leave a lasting legacy for Your own glory. So help me Lord.

Good Morning.

The best answer is always one aligning with God's will. Because He leads and guides, and has the best of interests for us when we trust Him, we have the assurance to overcome all temporary inconvenience, delays and opposition, and intricate doubts that distill setbacks instead of propelling forward. Worship reinvents and reignites clarity of spirit by reuniting us with the Spirit of God, and causing us to see the new way with fresh (spiritual) eyes (Is 43:19 KJV).

Good Morning.

We are in a season whereby every inch of watchfulness is imperative for any spiritual survival. Oftentimes, we get caught off guard due to complacency if not self exoneration. Yet we are all commanded to be alert. Prayer keeps us awake. Lack of it cultivates a conducive atmosphere for the intruder to get it. Any attitude that opens the door to unwanted guests needs emergency and permanent seal off. We are in a dispensation that can easily promote sophisticated distractions.

Our attention is called upon in order not to sink in the traps and snares laid by the enemy of our soul. Our eyes are enlightened and kept open solely by the Truth (synonymous with God's Word) locked in our hearts. Only the latter thrawrts every attempt of intrusion, and keeps the enemy at bay. Hence, how much of it is at work in your life to serve as a deterrent to the thief? Our survival, freedom and future depend to a greater extent if not exclusively on the amount of light projected by this Word out of our lives. This way, our walls are reinforced, secured by a steady watchfulness.

Good Morning.

Equipped by that kind of love, we see through Jesus set of eyes, and successfully walk in what we have been commissioned to do. He invariably and faithfully rewards those who align with, and uphold His will. Freedom is their enjoyment. Their performance is in reverent fear and honor to the Lord, instead of working as for pursuing own fame, welfare and success. Whenever love prevails (in our hearts), we are headed to win, no matter the nature of circumstances at hand. Good Morning. 

Seeking Him daily, is the very business of upholding the closeness and intimacy out of which refreshing grace flows. We are constantly reminded we are not alone. His Presence is the partnership that sees us through in life, and indeed distinguishes us. We press on bold and fearless because He goes before us. The assurance of this status (turned covenantal) confirms our conquering uniqueness, dilutes all fear, feeds and settles our privileged freedom. We thus move forward rejoicing, firmly convinced that in Him we stand unstoppable.

Good Morning.

I reach the safer spot not based on my swimming prowess, rather, because carried by Your Unchanging Truth. It enlightens the path, and lifts me afloat when fiery torrents besiege me. It carries me to safety when the storm rages and threatens my survival. It speaks calmness within when restlessness besieges my heart. It dismantles fear, distills peace within, reinjects positive energy, reshapes focus, and reinvents purposeful hope. It is the fire that feeds this spiritual appetite in moments of low estate and sheer despair. It lifts the lamp that projects rays of the future, dispelling any negative mood. It leads and propels to the anchor place as echoed by the rhythm of faith.

Good Morning.

When you align with God's purpose, He grants you endowments and ability that make you irresistible,  indeed a sign and a wonder. Sensitivity, obedience, humility, focus, steadfastness and gratitude are all character traits that prompt you to seek expanded space of influence for the Lord. Because He goes ahead of you (Exodus 33:14), you are guaranteed to win. Yours is to obey to the (spiritual) impulse and prompt to move (just like Abraham obeyed and left his familiar spot at once upon the call by the Lord). We are duty bound to win souls for God's Kingdom.

Undertaking any journey whose ultimate goal is to share His light is sure investment whose proceeds and reward are a certainty. The resulting fruitfulness of such an assignment justifies any effort we consent to in obeying the Lord regardless of the place we are prompted to go to. Will you undertake to expand the influence handed over to you for the Lord? Today is a given opportunity because tomorrow belongs to the Lord.

Good Morning.

Except in the garment of His vessels as instruments, there is no effectiveness, no substantial attainment. In any case, we are ordained and destined to discharge His duties, as tools of a divine order. We are (spiritually) led in accordance with the manifestation of God's purposes. We (shine and) are established as a testimony for His glory.

Whenever our steps are aligned with God's imprint, we can never stray away. Our reward is set, and our seed is secured in His goodness. Faith serves as the catalyst of the accruing benefits of being led by the Almighty. All opposition melts, dispelled by the light on our path (Ps. 119:105).

Good Morning.

Except we engage in such kind of (intimate) dialogue, our growth remains stunted, incredibly compromised, unable to reach our full potential. Subsequently, we fall short fulfilling our ordained assignment. There is no greater loss, no disheartening tragedy than this. We are destined for higher heights, and such attainment is much dependent on our relationship with God, cultivated in part, if not exclusively, by the time spent in His Presence.

It's mainly this attitude that enables us to acquire more of His character, receive divine wisdom and guidance, and perform better afterwards in the assignment that aligns with His will and purposes. This ultimately determines our reward. Only such a process attracts joy in our lives, worth, and fruitfulness because it completely eliminates the distraction that breeds frustrating barrenness. It instead builds surrender out of which emerges the oneness that makes all the difference.

Good Morning.

Faith enables us to walk in that love in every season, no matter the circumstances confronting us. It is all by grace the Lord alone avails when we are found in Him. On our own, we are unable and versatile, weak and vulnerable, inadequate and hesitant enough to remain steady and determined in our walk and assignment. Only the testimony of love and faith can speak on our behalf, impact others (through selfless service), and imprint a lasting legacy (Philem. 1:7AMP).

Good Morning.

The hope that never falters is catalytic of a resilient spirit, convinced that obstacles aren't designed to cause us quit, instead, to sharpen our faith, thus rendering us more determined to see our assignment through. This attitude is key in helping us reach our destination. We only have to challenge ourselves daily. It is an exercise that requires total reliance and dependence upon the Lord, our very hope of glory (Col. 1:27). Because our identity is in Him, we ultimately win and get established.

Help me, Lord, to train towards godliness so that I  emerge and keep myself spiritually fit (1Tim. 4:7AMP). As a connecting bridge to the Source, the exercise is incredibly profitable for it injects catalytic ability within to perform the assignment I am born for. It refreshes and uphold the hope out of which testimonies flow.

Good Morning.

Revelation triggers wisdom, and those who walk in faith rely on (divine) Truth to make assessment, engage in any commitment, and to press forward whenever at crossroads. When confronted by intricacies and dilemmas, the hope that never disappoints enlightens the path, orders our steps, renews our confidence, and galvanizes our innerman.

Can you choose to surrender in order to be an obedient, fully and unreservedly available vessel, dedicated for God's exclusive use? There better gain in releasing and giving away because seed germinates and multiplies only after being planted in (a fertile) soil. Grace yields abundance o ly when it finds and operates through a willing tool. When others can see Jesus through us, and come to the knowledge of God because we are in the business of mirroring Him, then we are in a fruitful growth process.

There is no better testimony than that, both for ourselves, and the community we influence and impact, around us even beyond. Lord, help us to be perfected instruments day after day so that we effectively and consistently contribute to the harvest of souls marked for your Kingdom. We will then rejoice in your assignment, as we imprint a legacy that eternally honors Your Name.
