The Holy Spirit, Your Counselor

🍽️📖📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈🛐🙏

Today, let's start with a couple of verses:

"Oil and perfume make the heart glad; So a man’s counsel is sweet to his friend" (Proverbs 27:9).

"For by wise guidance you will wage war, and in abundance of counselors there is victory" (Proverbs 24:6).

One more?

"Where there is no guidance the people fall, but in abundance of counselors there is victory" (Proverbs 11:14).

Need I say more? The conclusion is that you can't live your life without counsel.

Counsel provides direction, guidance and clarity. You are less likely to fall into a ditch when you have counsel.

Guess what? The Holy Spirit is the best counselor.

He can guide you into all truth.

He can remind you of what you need to do.

He can show you what course to take for the future.

Your best bet is to follow him.

He is the best counselor that ever lived and will ever live.

See Yourself As God Sees You

🍽️📖📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈🛐🙏

How does God see you? A failure? Certainly not. A wimp? Not even close. A weakling? Not in the ballpark.

God doesn't see as men see. God looks beyond our seeming failures, issues, and challenges. Guess what?

Look at what God told Samuel:

But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look on his appearance or the height of his stature, because I have rejected him. For the Lord sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart” (1 Samuel 16:7).

So how does God see us? Brace yourself for this life-changing answer: He sees us as He sees Christ! How profound!

When God sees Jesus, He sees you. And when He sees you, He sees Jesus. That's what Christ accomplished for us on the cross.

Look at what the Bible says about you:

"And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying, “Abba! Father!” So you are no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir through God" (Galatians 4:6-7).

Oh, glory! God sees you as His child and His heir. That's more than enough to help you go through today with confidence.

Don't pay attention to what the devil whispers to you. Nope! Always remember how God sees you.

Further Studies: 1 Corinthians 1:26-27; 2 Corinthians 3:5-6; James 2:5; 2 Timothy 2:20-22.

Fullness of Joy

🍽️📖📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈🛐🙏

Joy is not found in the bleak hallways of a nightclub, drugs, money, laurels or the fleeting pleasures of adultery and fornication. Things like this rob you of joy and leave you empty. Beloved, true, everlasting and untenable joy is found in God. True Joy is found in His presence.

"Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fullness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore" ( Psalm 16:11 KJV).

Learn to cultivate the presence of God. Practise God's presence daily. It should not be only during the time of prayer. Do not focus on God in Church only; focus on Him daily. Be expectant and anticipate His presence. Learn to stir His presence with psalms, hymns and songs.

If you seem to wake up depressed and unhappy, try a merry heart. Start your day with a spark of God's refreshing presence and be conscious of the precious presence every moment.

Further Studies:Proverbs 10:28; Psalm 47:1; Romans 15:13.

Think Big

🍽️📖📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈🛐🙏

As we approach this new year, there's one vital thing you must do: think big!

Yes, you read that right. Think bigger than you've ever thought. When it comes to possibilities in God, there are no limits, absolutely none.

God wants you to do things that this world has never seen. He wants to use you for mind-blowing exploits.

That's why He says that:

"But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God" (1 Corinthians 2:9-10).

Wow. No human sensory perception can understand the things that God has prepared for you.

All the limits you see don't actually exist. They may seem real, but the truth is, they are facades. Look beyond the limits.

In your career and academics, think big! In your relationships, think big. In your finances, think big. In your ministry, think big.

Aim to be the best in your field. That's the God-kind of thinking.

Because God is ready to even do more than you can think:

_"Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us" (Ephesians 3:20)._

Are you thinking big?

Further Studies: Isaiah 64:4; Romans 8:28; Proverbs 4:25; Matthew 6:25-33.

Live By Faith

🍽️📖📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈🛐🙏

A car runs by an engine. A bird flies by its wings. Your life works only by faith.

Faith is not an option; it's the only way to live. Some people think that they only need faith when they have a challenge before them. But nothing could be further from the truth. You need faith everyday of your life.

The Apostle Paul told us that:

"For we live by faith, not by sight" (2 Corinthians 5:7).

As believers in Christ, we don't live by the things we see. The circumstances you see are all fleeting. The only thing that's real and true is God's word. And faith is your response to God's word.

Faith is leaning on God's word always. Faith is making God's word the driving force of your life. Faith is knowing that what God said is true, and walking in that reality.

Only things gotten by faith last. Anything gotten by the flesh fades and deteriorates.

Your intelligence should come by faith. Your career progress should come by faith. Your finances should increase by faith. Decide that faith will be your daily currency!

Are you walking in faith?

Further Studies: 2 Corinthians 4:18; 1 Peter 1:8; Galatians 2:20.

The Holy Spirit, Your Strengthener

🍽️📖📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈🛐🙏

Have you ever felt weak? Have you ever been so discouraged? Have you ever noticed that you've run out of desire and strength from within?

Well, in this world, you might have that experience sometimes.

But thankfully, you have a reserve of strength to draw from.

The Holy Spirit is your strength.

Let me show you a few scriptures along that line.

"May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude of mind toward each other that Christ Jesus had” (Romans 15:5).

"Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The Lord, the Lord, is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation" (Isaiah 12:2).

And here's what God does for you:

"He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless" (Isaiah 40:29).

Talk to the Holy Spirit if you're feeling worn out and weak. He knows just what to say and do for you.

Further studies: Nehemiah 8:10; Isaiah 41:10; John 14:16, 26; Psalms 73:26.

Making Decisions

🍽️📖📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈🛐🙏

Do you have a big decision to make? Are you nervous you're going to make the wrong choice? Have you stopped in your tracks wondering which road to take?

I have just the right solution for you. Except that this solution is not a set of tips and tricks. It's not a collection of ideas and to-dos. Nope. It's a person: the precious Holy Spirit.

He is called the spirit of counsel.

"The Spirit of the LORD will rest on him— the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of might, the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the LORD" (Isaiah 11:2).

In other words, He's the spirit of guidance and direction. With Him, you can't miss a step.

That's why the scriptures say:

"But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day" (Proverbs 4:18).

If you need to make a decision, then it's time to pray. It's time to spend time with the Spirit of God to receive His wisdom and counsel.

As you spend time with Him, you'll begin to have peace and clarity regarding the direction you should take.

Further Studies: Proverbs 3:5-6; Psalms 90:12; John 16:13.

Be Strong in the Lord 2

🍽️📖📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈🛐🙏

Let me show you one of the best verses in scripture:

“No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it” (1 Corinthians 10:13).

There are three key things to learn from this verse.

First of all, there's no temptation or trial you are going through that hasn't happened before. In other words, there are experiences from others that you can learn from. That's why reading and seeking Godly counsel is always the way to go.

The second is an incredibly heartwarming promise. God will never allow a temptation that's beyond you. This means that for everything you go through, God knows that you have the inherent capacity to handle it. Glory! Even if you feel that a challenge is beyond you, it isn't. You are well able to handle it. Paul calls it "the faithfulness of God."

The last key thing from this verse is that there's always a way of escape from every temptation and trial. Your job is to find what that way is and take the path. That's why prayer is crucial. In prayer, God shows us the paths of our lives.

Why don't you meditate on this verse today? Are you going through a test or a temptation, this verse is just what you need.

Further Studies: Psalm 46:1-3, Isaiah 41:10; Exodus 15:2; Psalm 9:9-10.

Be Strong in the Lord 1

🍽️📖📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈🛐🙏

Sometimes, to understand what God is saying, we need to understand what God is not saying.

In Paul's inspired missive to the Church at Ephesus, he gives his closing remarks.

"Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might" (Ephesians 6:10)

But he doesn't say, "Be strong."

Rather, he says, "Be strong in the Lord." The word used here in the Greek for strong is the same word "dunamis" which is also used in Acts 1:8, where Jesus tells the disciples to wait until they are endued with power from on high.

In other words, Paul is not just saying "be strong," but he's saying to believers to be strong in the power of the Holy Spirit. Your strength lies in your fellowship with the Holy Spirit. That's where you'll know the power of His might. Strength is spiritual.

So, don't let the trouble and turbulence of this world change your direction. Set your sails on the Holy Spirit and refuse to be weakened by challenges that take aim at you on a daily basis.

Are you strong in Him?

Further Studies: Psalm 46:1-3; Nehemiah 8:10; 1 Chronicles 16:11; Philippians 4:12,13.

*Let Nothing Move You*

🪴📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈🌴

In Christ, you'll have to stand.

Many things will try to move you and destabilize you in your walk with God.

Situations.

Problems.

People.

Thoughts.

Fear.

Anxiety.

Just name them.

But make up your mind that no matter what happens, you'll stand firm in Christ.

Paul reminds us:

_"Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain" (1 Corinthians 15:58)._

Paul's life was a practical example:

_"But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God" (Acts 20:24)._

Let nothing move you!

You Will Give an Account

🍽️📖📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈🛐🙏

Oneday, all the pomp and pageantry of this life will come to an end.

And we will have to give an account of our lives on earth.

Guess what? It's not optional.

Every will account for their lives.

So, says the scriptures.

_"So then each of us will give an account of himself to God" (Romans 14:12)._

Need more proof?

_"For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive what is due for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil" (2 Corinthians 5:10)._

_"And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Then another book was opened, which is the book of life. And the dead were judged by what was written in the books, according to what they had done" (Revelation 20:12)._

Knowing that you will give an account of your life, what manner of life should you live?

I'll leave you with a very important question for today.

If the world were to come to an end today, what will you say to God?

The answer to that question will help you reorganize your life.

Further studies: Hebrews 9.27; 2 Timothy 4.1; Matthew 25.31-46; 1 Peter 4.5.

*Don't Be Tired of Doing Good*

🪴📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈🌴

This year, don't get tired of doing good things.

That's Paul's reminder to us.

_"‭‭And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not" (Galatians 6:9)._

It's easy to get tired when you do good things.

This usually happens when the people you do good towards don't appreciate you.

It can also happen when you don't seem to see the results of all the good things you're doing.

Sometimes, your strength just gives in, and you become mentally, physically, and emotionally tired.

But there's grace for you.

That's why the Bible tells us not to get tired of doing good things.

Even when no one celebrates or acknowledges you, keep at what you are doing.

Know that your God is a rewarder, and He'll reward your faithfulness.

This year, plan not to be tired.

Do more for Jesus than you have ever done.

Further studies: 1 Corinthians 15:58; 2 Thessalonians 3:13; Hebrews 10:35-39; 12:3.

SPEAKING THE TRUTH IN LOVE

🍽️📖📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈🛐🙏

When a man falls into a ditch, condemnation comes along to throw more mud and widen the ditch. Correction, however, comes to offer the man a way out of the ditch, showing him his missteps and how not to fall in there again.

The Prophet Nathan could have walked into  King David's palace and screamed viciously: "You adulterous and greedy man. Murderer, ungrateful king! God will judge you. God will punish and judge your house." All of it would have been true. David had indeed done all these things. But what would Nathan have achieved? That approach would most likely end up antagonizing David or breeding depression and bleak fear.

God wanted to bring him to repentance and reconciliation but not condemnation. So, Nathan began with a parable and listened for David's response. From there, he pointed out David's errors and rebuked him accordingly. King David's eyes were now opened.

_"And David said unto Nathan, I have sinned against the LORD. And Nathan said unto David, The LORD also hath put away thy sin; thou shalt not die" ( 2 Samuel 12:13 KJV)._

Speaking in love produces conviction. Nathan rebuked David in a wise, respectful and yet uncompromising way. David was convicted of his fault as a result.  A wise man once said, "Truth without love is condemnation and love without truth is compromise." The way you present the truth is very important. Love is not harsh. Let's speak the truth in love!

Further studies: 2 Samuel 12:1-15; 2 Timothy 3:16.

*Don't Start Anything Without God*

🪴📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈🌴

God must be first.

He must be the last.

And He must be the center.

In simple terms, God must be everything in your life.

But He can't be everything if He's not the first.

Ever read Genesis 1:1?

_"In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth."_

Read it this way.

"In the beginning, God..."

God must be in every beginning.

He must be at the beginning of your work.

He must be in the beginning of your relationships.

He must be the beginning of your finances.

And well...

He must be the beginning of your day.

_Why not start the day with Him. It will turn out much better than you expected!_

The World Is Not Your Home

🍽️📖📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈🛐🙏

It's easy to be caught up by this world.

Before long, you are so comfortable in this world that you've forgotten about one tiny detail: this world is not your home.

Well, I didn't say it. The scriptures did.

_"For this world is not our permanent home; we are looking forward to a home yet to come. Therefore, let us offer through Jesus a continual sacrifice of praise to God, proclaiming our allegiance to his name" (Hebrews 13:14-15)._

The world might offer us some sense of belonginess, but it's temporal at best.

You are from above

Your home is above.

Your home is in the father, the abba.

That's why Jesus told the disciples:

_"If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you" (John 15:19)._

Live knowing that one day you will return home.

Will you get home with honor or shame?

Your choice.

Impatience Comes from Comparisons

🍽️📖📈📈📈📈📈📈📈📈🛐🙏

One of the worst things you can do to yourself is to compare yourself to others.

It will make you sad.

It will give you jitters.

It will make you feel like a failure.

Even if you think you are better than others, you'll end up becoming complacent.

Nothing good comes from comparisons.

That's what the Bible calls comparing yourself with others a lack of wisdom.

_"For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise" (2 Corinthians 10:12)._

In fact, comparison breeds impatience.

The more you compare yourself with others, the more you are forced to take steps to measure up to them -- sometimes evil steps.

_"Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; do not fret when people succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes" (Psalm 37:7)._

By all means, be inspired by others but don't compare yourself to them to your detriment.

Further Studies: Galatians 1:10; 6:4-6; Psalm 73:2-6; Proverbs 23:17; 24:1; Habakkuk 2:3.
