What Do You Have?


The Lord said to him, “What do you have in your hand?” - Exodus 4:2a


God called Moses to deliver the people of a Isreal from the hands of the Egyptians. Little has he start the mission, he ran back to God complaining of the difficulties he is having with Pharaoh, the King of Egypt.

One noticeable thing in that story is that God didn’t send some angels from above or gathered some their people to go help Moses. He simply asked him “What do you have in your hands”?

God has equipped each and everyone of us with everything we need to overcome in Life. He didn’t create us empty. 

Most times, people do think they need additional support from God to help them wade through crisis in Life. Oh yes, God can strengthen us no doubt but He is not giving you any additional weapon other than the one He has given you.

God takes what you have, who you are, and what you can do, no matter how small it may seem and then multiplies it to create miracles.

God did not ask Moses what he didn’t have.
We all could make a long list if what we don’t have:
*We don’t have enough money
*We don’t have a good education
*We don’t have a high social standing

The list can go on and on.

God never directs our attention to what we don’t have, but to what we do have even though it seems small.

God uses what you have to bless and increase you. What is important is to release what we have to God.

Peter toiled all night but couldn’t catch anything but when Jesus came onboard, He didn’t ask him to change the net, He simply gave him instructions and Peter yielded his net to that instruction.

Elijah asked the Widow whose Husband died and left a mounting debt what she has in the house.

So often we feel we need extraordinary abilities to do God's work.
In truth, we all already possess whatever we need to do God's work, we just need to let God touch it first and then use it!


It’s a blessed Tuesday, Miracles are happening for you.

Made a Way: The Story Behind The Song

Made a way is a song written and sang by award winning artist Travis Greene in the year 2015. Many people knows the song but few actually know the story behind the song. The song was actually borne out of a personal testimony of Travis Greene. According to the artist, 'Made a Way' was written during an impossible situation. His pregnant wife’s water broke at 21 weeks, when pregnancy normally takes between 37-42 weeks. The doctors said the possibility of the baby’s survival is slim to none, and it was during this period when his wife was on bed rest for two months that he wrote the song. There was nothing else for them to hold on to but faith, and the good news is that as slim as the chance was, it didn’t break because faith held it together and today their baby boy is alive.  When Jesus was on His way to heal Jairus’s daughter and news came that things had gone from bad to worse, that the girl was dead. Jesus overheard and said, "Don't be upset. Just trust me...

Song: These Walls

You are good and do good;....  - Psalm 119:68  Few months back, I came across an inspiring song by Jason David who happens to be a pastor.  He was diagnosed with cancer. After a year-long fight with cancer that claimed much of his tongue, Pastor Jason David refuses to stop singing. "These Walls" is an original worship song he wrote that became his anthem as he fought through several surgeries, chemotherapy & radiation. For someone going through challenges; financial, health, marital, academic, whatever it may be, I pray this song will bless you - no matter what walls or mountains you may face, God is greater & God is good!  Below are the lyrics of the song: Verse: You are greater than these walls I'm circling  You are stronger than these army  I see You are bigger than these mountains that I faced And I will choose only to praise You.
