REST FROM TOILING 


MEMORY VERSE: - Genesis 41:51 - “And Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh: For God, said he, hath made me forget all my toil, and all my father's house.”

Opposite of rest is restlessness.... Confusion.... Agitation.... Commotion.... Unrest.... Instability.... Stress. But the rest we are dealing with here is rest from toiling; which is to make great efforts without results. 

We read about Peter and friends who experienced such toiling. Luke 5:5 tells us, “And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless, at thy word I will let down the net.” For anyone to rest from toiling, he or she must be endued with grace; for it is grace that will help you, carry you, and favour you in life. 

Grace gives you rest. Grace brings you success. Grace makes things work. Grace makes your way easy and fast. Grace makes you to be ahead of your contemporaries. Grace is the enablement of God. Grace is the presence of God resting upon all you do. 

Listen, Grace goes hand in hand with God's presence. When you have Grace, its evidence is the presence and the evidence of the grace is results without struggle. No matter how much efforts one puts in, if there is no presence of God’s grace, it will be unproductive. Grace looks beyond your weakness, inabilities and personality but works through love.

 What Peter and friends experienced was grace because they were sinful men, and unqualified by nature for such magnitude of miracles: but grace qualified them. Wherefore, the scripture said, “When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying. Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord” (Luke 5:8).

And so, grace found them and turned their story around. Outside grace was toiling but with grace was ease and productivity. Assuredly, grace qualifies the unqualified. Grace takes one from grass to glory, grace takes one from low life to higher life in Christ and grace lifts you up from zero to hero. 

PRAYER
O’ Lord my God, I yield myself to you, through your grace help, I purge out those things that are corrupt and every junks from my life and from every iniquity in Jesus’ name, Amen

GOD WILL FINISH WHAT HE STARTED

GOD WILL FINISH WHAT HE STARTED MEMORY VERSE: - Philippians 1:6 - “Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:” God doesn't do anything halfway, whatever he starts, he brings it into a perfect end. They maybe distractions in the process, they maybe some forces contending with you to stop you from getting to the finishing point but they can't stop you because they cannot stop He who is involved in the affairs of your life.  Therefore, no matter what the enemy throws your way, have faith in God, refuse to be distracted, refuse to be frustrated by anyone but stay focused: for the Lord God in the midst of your life is mighty and greater than all. Who can contend with Him, who can withstand His great power. He promised you that he is with you always. “And lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.” (Matthew 28:20). And furthermore, in Hebrews 13:5 He said, "I will not leave you

AVOID DIVERSIONS

AVOID DIVERSIONS MEMORY VERSE: - Jonah 1:3 - "But Jonah got up and went in the opposite direction to get away from the LORD. He went down to the port of Joppa, where he found a ship leaving for Tarshish. He bought a ticket and went on board, hoping to escape from the LORD by sailing to Tarshish” (NLT) One of the ways the devil is using to rub many people of their blessing is through diversions. The Lord gave a message to Jonah to go to the city of Nineveh and announce his judgment against it because of their wickedness but Jonah chose not to go, instead he went another way and his own way the scripture says was the "Opposite Direction." Oftentimes, people choose to go the opposite direction against God's original agenda for them when things are not going as planned. When vision is being delayed and when they are hit with challenges and difficulties in the process of trying to achieve what they were given to do. In the opposite direction is confusion.... In the opposi

NOW IS YOUR MOMENT

  AbayeLiz Daily Inspirational   NOW IS YOUR MOMENT MEMORY VERSE: - John 11:21-24, "Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee. Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again. Martha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day"   A lot of people pray but do not believe they can have the answer to their request immediately. Their faith is always in the future. The mindset of future has kept them from embracing that which is theirs at the moment. Thus, they neglect the place of faith in the now of today’s experience. While Martha could only think of the future as the only time her brother could rise again from the dead, Jesus was seeing it happening in the moment. Beloved, it's time to wake up and begin to walk in the 'now' faith. What is now? It means at the present time or moment. it is right
