Big God. Big Expectations.Big Results


Hello Godstimers!

I am still in my year of Favor 2013: SpeakLife.

Will you Join me lets speak God's word and apply it to our lives?

As I declared the month of May: "Big God. Big Expectations. Big Results". I did not know that i was truly going to witness an awesome month. I share testimonies here to encourage us to dig deeper into the word, pray&praise&worship daily. I know we go through different challenges but be empowered with the word of God. Read it. Speak it. Use it daily.

I call them "Conversations with our Father".
Jeremiah 33:3 GWT says "Call to me, and I will answer you. I will tell you great and mysterious things that you do not know."
When we call to God our father, he answers and as we humbly ask for his help, he will show us great things (healing, deliverance, peace, joy), all his promises to us comes alive! The rule here is you have to call, ask, speak to God. He wants a conversation, relationship with you.

Testimony: prayers were answered-- two speaking engagements, work assignments tripled at the job, rejoiced with Rev.Evangelist E.Success ordination, promoted & launched my pastor's book event, MC the mothers day concert for the women's ministry at church, by the way the holy spirit moved in a such manner i had never felt before in this event my speaking was different (working on editing the video, will post soon).

I was encouraged this month to continue praying, speaking Life, praise and worship.

Above all, this month i learned the following:
  1. Never underestimate the power of prayer: I asked the holy spirit to guide and teach me what to say at the women ministry event and He truly showed up as the perfect gentleman, anointed my tongue. I was saying... "Women, Jesus want us to Speak! Yes Speak Life into any situation, he has given us the power and mandate to do this", if i could say so myself it was powerful, liberating because i know it is not my might or power, truly by the spirit of the living God such is revealed.
  2. Busy schedule affects prayer time: As the work assignment tripled at the job I began to notice that it was cutting into my personal time with my Father. The physical body need balance and the personal time to have conversations with God its important to refuel and release. I am thankful for the extra work assignment but now I know i must ask for direction and wisdom going forward. Jesus says to bring to him all our heavy burdens (Matthew 11:28-30)  and also that he can never give us more than we can bear ( Ist Corinthians 10:13)
  3. Praise and Worship is powerful!: I want to cultivate an attitude of praise&worship as a lifestyle in my home, at church, attending gospel concerts, with friends. It is empowering, strengthens and    gets you closer to the ear of our creator. Jesus tells the Samaritan woman that God is seeking for those who will worship him in truth and in spirit. (John4). We are created to worship the father. He inhabits in the praises of his people. You can pray amiss but never praise amiss. Think about it!
  4. Writing is not easy, it takes dedication and focus and divine inspiration.
  5. I am passionate about the women of the bible.
  6. Humanitarian ministry is a divine calling:  Working on public relations campaign for Evangelist E.Success humanitarian work in Africa, I am convinced that Prayer+Faith+Missions+Advocacy+Aid+Donors= Humanitarian ministry.  Philippians 2:4 "Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others." I cant wait to go on medical mission trip with the team in the near future.
Looking forward to reading your comments. you can also send email to godstymeisbest@gmail.com

Love, Peace & Blessing.
as always stay connected!

Our Lord's PRAYER: ReadWriteSpeak

GodsTIME
Hi there GodsTIMErs!

As I joined http://www.ksbj.org/ this noon to meditate on the Lord's Prayer. I am convinced now that inspiration to share my experiences on this blog can come anytime so i have learned to respond to the holy spirit. When we ask God to speak to us and through us...be ready!

Timing is very important in the order of things. Yes we should constantly be spiritually alert throughout the day with our prayer language, praises, thanksgiving, positive actions, but we need to practice to set out time dedicated towards GodsTIME. As Jesus did in the Garden of Gethsemane he prayed strategically always: 12noon, 3pm, 6pm and at night.Matthew26:36-56

Remember God has already given us the authority to ask of anything in the name of Jesus Christ and it is done. Just like that.  Read John 14:14 "if ye ask anything in my name I will do it"

I am reminded of the powerful message and instruction that Jesus taught the disciples in Matthew chapter six about praying, fasting, true riches and to stop worrying.

I will focus on the prayer instruction for this post:  Matthew 6:9-14 


9"This is how you should pray: Our Father in heaven, let your name be kept holy.
10Let your kingdom come. Let your will be done on earth as it is done in heaven.
11Give us our daily bread today.
12Forgive us as we forgive others.
13Don't allow us to be tempted. Instead, rescue us from the evil one. 14"If you forgive the failures of others, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15But if you don't forgive others, your Father will not forgive your failures.

verse9: Teaches us to reverence the name of our Father and his position in our lives. God is in heaven. He is holy. We must activate his position and holiness, he reigns over us. we are in total submission mode here towards the power of God. Be a child as you are of him, be vulnerable and appreciate his sovereignty.

verse10: Let the will of God be done in our lives, and on earth. We must plug into the plan and purpose of God for us. The kingdom of God is where all what we need for survival is stored. So activate it through the power of your words!

verse11: Give us our daily bread today. Ask and you shall receive, seek and you will find these are God's promises to provide our needs but we must ask for it to be released in its fullest.

verse12: Forgiveness is key. Ask God to forgive you of ALL wrong. God is faithful to forgive us but we must confess our sins in its entirety, asking him to forgive you and those that offended you and vice versa and even things you dont remember or did not know you did. "Do not grive the holy spirit"

verse13: There are several evil around us. Satan is working on all levels to tempt and remove us from the place God has for us. So activate his divine help through the blood of Jesus that was shed, we are free from all torment and redeemed through blood and his grace. Amen! I always shout out loud on this revelation.

Bonus verse14+15: This is true, you can not hold on to a grudge and then ask God to forgive you or your always taking advantage of the grace but not taking responsibility to ask for forgiveness to those you offend. This verse clearly reminds us that any un-forgiveness spirit in our path will be a direct block of our true divine forgiveness. be careful here please! may of us including me struggle with this area.

Have a blessed midweek!

Love, peace and blessings
