STOP COMPLAINING

And when the people complained, it displeased the Lord: and the Lord heard it; and His anger was kindled; and the fire of the Lord burnt among them and consumed them that were in the uttermost part of the camp. (Numbers 11:1).

Appreciation gets God's attention but complaining attracts His anger. One of the greatest thing that displeases God is complain. Ingratitude demeans God's omnipotence. Complains set in when we focus on what is not working, instead of focusing on God's word. Understand that there are a lot of good things happening in your life right now, but the attitude of ingratitude will make you ignore them and never acknowledge the good things in you, but instead emphasize on the negatives by complaining.

See what the Bible says in Philemon 6; that the communion of your faith may become effectual by the ACKNOWLEDGING OF EVERY GOOD THING WHICH IS IN YOU IN CHRIST JESUS.
Choose to acknowledge and focus on your strength and stop complaining and getting worried about your weakness. I am confident that the Lord is perfecting that which concerns you and He that has begun a good work in you will finish it.

Focus on God not on men. You will not stop complaining because you are looking up to man as your source instead of God. With men disappointment is inevitable, but with God success is sure. Refuse to give room for complains. To stay out of complains, you must learn to put your trust only in Hod, focus on Him and have in mind that God cannot fail you. He is too faithful to fail you. He is dependable and reliable
 He is all you need. No matter the challenges you are going through right now, please never forget that it is working together for your good child of God. Cheer up!

FURTHER STUDY: Psalm 139:14, Psalm 34:1-11

PRAYER:
1. Oh Lord help me by your Spirit to focus on your goodness and deliver me from the temptation of complaining.
2. I refuse to magnify my present and unwanted situation by complaining. Therefore, I celebrate by faith, God's plan for my future.
3. I walk by faith and not by sight in Jesus name.

LISTEN TO GODS' VOICE TODAY

"Today if you hear God’s voice speaking to you, do not harden your hearts against Him, as the people of Israel did when they rebelled against Him in the desert.” (Hebrew 3:15). God speaks to his creation at all times. As we read the bible we see instances where God spoke to unbelievers, example; Saul,  Nebuchadnezzar etc. Jesus spoke to the wind and it obeyed him, He also spoke to the fig tree. How much more you his child. It is an error for you to say you can’t hear his voice.  Jesus speaking in..…John 10:27 said; “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.”  As Gods' children, we have the capacity and the ability to hear His voice. But the challenge is; a lot of us do not pay attention and listen to what God is saying. Probably because we are waiting to have the Saul’s encounter of a voice speaking from heaven (Act 9:4). God speaks to us in our spirit with a small still voice. Prophet Elijah had an encounter with this voice… II Kings 19:12 -13 “...and after

START WITH PRAYER.

 O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days. Psalm 90:14 Starting the year in prayerlessness is a very dangerous move to make. From the scripture above, we see David placing a demand on God in the place of prayer for early satisfaction. He is asking God God to satisfy him early with mercy. Why was he specific by adding "early" and not just saying oh Lord satisfy us with your mercy? The mistake most of us make in our prayer, is failure to be specific and detailed in our prayer. The demand for earl satisfaction will result to early accomplishment and achievements. Now is the time for you to learn this wisdom from David and tell the Lord that you desire to be satisfied early in 2021 with his mercy, favour, goodness, presence, wisdom, success and vision. Halleluyah! Lateness and delay is when the achievement of January is accomplished in December. May you not be found sleeping while your mate are succeeding, maximising their year and prosperin

THE POWER OF PATIENCE.

But as for me, I watch in hope for the LORD, I wait for God my saviour; my God will hear me (Micah 7:7). One of the characteristics of a matured believer is in his or her ability to patiently wait on God for his intervention even in the midst of fierce oppositions and challenges. From the anchor scripture, we see the prophet making this his personal choice- “But as for me”. He was intentional about it. You see, in life, you have to understand that following the crowd always can make you miss out on God’s plan for your life. There are decisions you have to make of which other people may never support or understand, because you desire to please God with your life and not man. Others may choose to cut corners, seek for short cuts which will ultimately cut them short. Some cheat their way through due to impatience, pressure to fit in, and low self-esteem. As believers, our response to life ought to be different. Prophet Micah said “I wait in hope for the LORD” do you know that, ho
