SPOKEN WORD: I Know...



I took my cloth to the tailor and asked him to fix the little opening near the pocket.

The man turned the cloth inside out and then began to TEAR the pocket with his hands...

Hah! I was like, "I said you should sew not tear"

So I shouted, 'you are tearing my cloth o'.

But he replied
"I KNOW".

Those two words sank into me like a heavy
stone sinks in water.

I couldn't talk again.

He's the tailor, and I'm just a customer.

Even though I couldn't relate tearing with sewing but the Tailor said "I KNOW".

God is saying, 'I KNOW'.

He hears your complaints.

Father, My fiancee just left me... 'I KNOW'.

I have no means to pay my fees... 'I KNOW'

I was rejected at the embassy again... 'I KNOW'

I have no money to cater for my needs... 'I
KNOW'

So many times when the Lord is fixing us,

He starts by 'tearing' us.

 Tearing our confidence in ourselves,
Tearing all our philosophies,
Tearing our pride and fake humility,
Tearing the things we call
dear and giving us the truly dear things.

The only thing necessary is wisdom.

Wisdom to know when it is  Lord and when it isn't the Lord.

The devil tears to kill, God tears to Fix.

God tears the old to give you the new.

God's tearing fire only refines His own.

God's tearing approaches only yields the peaceable fruit of Righteousness.

So in reality, God tears no man, He only makes.

We call it tearing, He calls it Making.

We call it breaking, He calls it building.

He knows you have need even before you ask.

That's why when we complain...

He responds thus: 'I KNOW'.

"For I KNOW the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end"
JEREMIAH 29:11 Trust God.

My cloth came out better. You are coming out better too...it's well.
Have a glorious weekend ahead
God bless 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...

If Men Were God

He sends  rain  on the just and on the unjust. - Matthew 5:44 It's raining as I type this post and I remember the words of Jesus in Matthew 5:45 where he talks about  God sending the rain on both the just and unjust. God won't because are a sinner or a bad personal withdraw the rain from Falling on your side. One special trait we are to emulate from God is that we should not discriminate. If men were God, the rain will be raining only on the good, the sun will be shinning only on the perfect. We humans readily discriminate, we isolate those we feel are not perfect or good. We see those who have sinned as been candidates of hell as if we haven't sinned before. One major problem of our society is discrimination. Even in church, we discriminate, we see that prostitute and we readily condemned her. We readily forget that as children of God, we don't just do good to good people, we are to do good to everybody. It doesn't matter how bad a person might be, you ...
