Nairaland General › Don't Let Fear Stop You (1). by Btruth(op): 6:41am On Nov 05, 2015
Thursday November 5


“He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion.”  Php 1:6 NIV


Don’t let fear stop you (1)

Has God called you to do something you don’t feel capable of doing? Could you think of a dozen others better suited for the job? It doesn’t matter what you think, God didn’t choose somebody else! He chose you in spite of your limitations and insecurities. Your inadequacies don’t surprise Him. In fact, His “power works best in weakness” (2Co 12:9 NLT). Jon Walker says: “You may…hide your weaknesses from others, but you can’t hide them from God. He created you (do you think He made a mistake?). He created you with weaknesses to keep you on your knees…without them to push you back to God you’ll get prideful…and He won’t allow you to use them as an excuse for avoiding your mission or ignoring your purpose. If God is calling you to a monumental task, He will equip you to complete it—and that includes the Holy Spirit working from inside you. So focus on His strength, not yours. Don’t think about how incapable you are for the task. Remember, God is bigger than anything you face, no matter how overwhelming it may appear.” The Bible says we were “created in Christ…to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do” (Eph 2:10 NIV). God’s plans are never an afterthought. He designed you for a specific purpose, and the One who “began a good work in you will carry it on to completion.” So instead of letting fear stop you, let it motivate you to get up and get going!

Nairaland General › Invoke God's Blessing Upon Your Life. by Btruth(op): 5:17am On Nov 04, 2015
Wednesday November 4


“He who invokes a blessing on himself…shall do so by saying, ‘May the God of truth and fidelity [the Amen] bless me.’”  Isa 65:16 AMP

Invoke God’s blessing upon your life

The word “invoke” implies these two things: (1) To make an earnest request for, or to solicit. (2) To put into effect or operation, or to implement. With that in mind, read this Scripture: “[It shall be] that he who invokes a blessing on himself in the land shall do so by saying, ‘May the God of truth and fidelity [the Amen] bless me; and he who takes an oath in the land shall swear by the God of truth and faithfulness to His promises [the Amen], because the former troubles are forgotten.’” That’s a powerful promise! Even as God, our Father, spoke the world into existence, we too can use the Scriptures to frame the world we will live in. When you speak the blessing of God over your life, you “make an earnest request and solicit it.” And you also “put it into effect or operation, and implement it.” This is why God told Moses to bless the Israelites with these words: “The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face shine upon you, and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace” (Nu 6:24-26 NKJV). Then God added, “And I will bless them” (v. 27 NKJV). Now you can understand why speaking God’s Word over your life can change things for the better, and why the Bible says, “Death and life are in the power of the tongue” (Pr 18:21 NKJV). So the word for you today is—invoke God’s blessing upon your life!

Nairaland General › Today's Word: Dealing With Other People's Failures. by Btruth(op): 10:53am On Nov 03, 2015
Tuesday November 3


“They looked the other way.”  Ge 9:23 NLT

Dealing with other people’s failures

The Bible says: “After the flood, Noah began to cultivate the ground, and he planted a vineyard. One day he drank some wine…and became drunk and lay naked inside his tent. Ham…saw that his father was naked and went outside and told his brothers. Then Shem and Japheth took a robe, held it over their shoulders, and backed into the tent to cover their father. As they did this, they looked the other way so they would not see him naked. When Noah woke up from his stupor, he learned what Ham, his youngest son, had done. Then he cursed Canaan, the son of Ham” (vv. 20-25 NLT). Have you ever uncovered something about a person in a position of respect, and you just couldn’t refrain from telling other people? If you have, think about this: If God trusted you enough to reveal someone’s unclothedness or sin, maybe you weren’t meant to “see” and “tell,” but to “cover” that person’s unclothedness with discretion, compassion, and prayer. The Bible says, “Discretion will protect you, and understanding will guard you” (Pr 2:11 NIV). The fact is, Ham ended up being condemned, while his father Noah ended up in Hebrews chapter eleven being given honorable mention with the great heroes of Scripture. You say, “But I’m free to say whatever I like!” Not true! The Bible says, “A talebearer reveals secrets, but he who is of a faithful spirit conceals a matter” (Pr 11:13 NKJV). What if God decided to show someone else your unclothedness? Remember, what you sow, you reap! How you handle someone else’s area of vulnerability determines how God handles yours (See Gal 6:7).

Nairaland General › Today's Word: Going Public. by Btruth(op): 6:08am On Nov 02, 2015
Monday November 2


“We were buried with Him through baptism.”  Ro 6:4 NKJV

Going public

When a couple gets married they put on wedding rings. Could they be married without them? Sure, but the rings identify them as belonging exclusively to one another. We would think it odd if a husband never wanted to go out in public with his wife. He might say, “I’ll eat dinner with you, as long as it’s at home.” That would be an insult! Likewise, just as the ring publicizes the fact that you have a covenant relationship with your spouse, baptism declares that you believe in the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus and you have put your trust in Him as your Savior. “Therefore we were buried with him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection, knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin. For he who has died has been freed from sin. Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him” (vv. 4-8 NKJV). Not only does baptism declare to others that you have publicly identified yourself with Christ, it’s a constant reminder to you. When you’re tempted to go back to your old ways, it says, “You’re no longer that person, you’re a new creation in Christ with a new set of values, attitudes, actions, and destiny.”

Nairaland General › Today's Word: Set "Rules Of Life" For Your Children. by Btruth(op): 6:34am On Nov 01, 2015
Sunday November 1


“What will be the boy’s rule of life, and his work?”  Jdg 13:12 NKJV

Set “rules of life” for your children

When God told Samson’s father Manoah that he would have a son in his old age, he asked, “What will be the boy’s rule of life, and his work?” He was a wise father. He knew that in order for his son to fulfill his destiny, he must be raised by certain rules. Children feel more secure and tend to flourish when they know what the boundaries are. Imagine driving your car over a bridge that’s suspended hundreds of feet up in the air. For first-time travelers, it can be a scary experience. One little fellow was so awed by the view that he said, “Wow, Daddy! If you fell off here it would kill you constantly!” Suppose there were no guardrails on the side of the bridge; where would you steer the car? Right down the middle of the road! Even though you don’t plan to hit those protective railings, you just feel more secure knowing they’re there. And it’s the same with your children. They need to know what the “rules of life” are, and that you’ll enforce them consistently. When the rules are clear at home, children live in safety. As long as he or she stays within those reasonable, well-marked guardrails there’s joy, freedom, and acceptance. Your children may not admit that they want you to be the boss, but they breathe more easily when you are. Bottom line: When God gives you a child, it’s a twenty-one-year project, at a minimum. During that time you train them either for failure or for success. The choice is yours.
Happy New Month!
Nairaland General › Today's Word: Don't Look Back. by Btruth(op): 6:30am On Oct 31, 2015
Saturday October 31


“Remember Lot’s wife.”  Lk 17:32

Don’t look back

Before God destroyed the city of Sodom, He sent two angels to rescue Lot and his family from it. Their instructions were clear: “Do not look behind you nor stay anywhere in the plain. Escape to the mountains, lest you be destroyed…But his wife looked back behind him, and she became a pillar of salt” (Ge 19:17, 26 NKJV). Jesus recalled this story in three words: “Remember Lot’s wife.” Here are two lessons you should learn and remember: (1) Don’t look back with longing to your old sinful pleasures and pursuits. The promise of sin made was false then, and it’s still false now. “Each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed. Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death. Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren” (Jas 1:14-16 NKJV). (2) Don’t look back with regret on the mistakes you’ve made. Lot’s two sons-in-law wouldn’t heed the message of the angels or the pleading of their father-in-law, so they stayed behind. Perhaps that’s why his wife looked back. But it was fatal then, and it’s fatal now. Don’t wallow in the regrets of your past. Stop dwelling on the injuries inflicted on you by others. Get your eyes off the rearview mirror and onto the road ahead. God has great things in store for you; that’s what the battle in your life is about. Jesus referred to Satan as a “thief” (See Jn 10:10). He has already stolen too much from you; don’t let him steal any more. Today commit your life to Christ, and watch His blessing begin.

sanbells:
Do the right thing. Warn your roommate to stop that nonsense. If she doesn't, then tell your landlords wife. She doesn't deserve any of that. She's been good to you so it's time to pay back the goodness by telling the truth. Chances are that you might get kicked out shaa... Buh don't worry about that, it's better than seeing that woman everyday in her nicest behavior and carrying a guilty conscience.
.......i thought you like the OP nii ooo, and if you do, why will you ask her to tell the landlord's wife? if she does, she will loose in all the 3 ways. She will loose her friend, the landlord will kick her out, and finally, she will never get to have the landlord's wife respect again, because she will assume she knows and supported the whole thing from the beginning. Better advice for her will be to warn her friend very well, and find another accommodation for herself because she is sitting on a time bomb.

Nairaland General › Today's Word: Be Greatful For What You Have. by Btruth(op): 7:50am On Oct 30, 2015
Friday October 30


“In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God…for you.”  1Th 5:18 NKJV

Be grateful for what you have

Theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking had a brilliant mind. He was compared by some to Albert Einstein. But he had a rare degenerative disease called amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS syndrome). And it left him virtually paralyzed. He learned to use a computer with the tips of his fingers and was able to communicate his calculations and thoughts. Before he became ill, he described his life as a “pointless existence.” He drank too much and did very little work. But after discovering that he had only a few years to live, life suddenly took on an urgency and a new meaning. And he was actually happier than he was before. He explained the paradox this way: “When one’s expectations are reduced to zero, one really appreciates everything that one does have.” When you’re told that you only have a limited time left to live, it transforms your whole perspective on living. Things you overlook suddenly become meaningful: the laughter of children, a sunrise or sunset, the love of friends and family, or just a walk in the park. The most miserable people in the world are those who believe that life “owes them.” They’re never happy, because they never believe they get what they deserve. The apostle Paul was in prison with no hope of getting out when he wrote, “In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” What was he saying? Simply this: Instead of competing, comparing, and complaining, focus on the good things God has given you, enjoy them and develop an attitude of gratitude (See Php 4:cool.

Nairaland General › Today's Word: Seeing Your Work As God’s Will (3). by Btruth(op): 6:05am On Oct 29, 2015
Thursday October 29


“Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.”  Ps 127:1 NRS 

Seeing your work as God’s will (3)

When your skill level is high but the challenge of the task is too low, you experience boredom. When your skill level is low and the challenge of the task is too high, you experience frustration and anxiety. But when the level of the challenge matches the level of your skills—then you’re “in the flow.” We don’t work mainly for money, recognition, promotion, applause, or fame. We work for flow. We live for flow. We hunger for flow, and when it’s present, something happens in our spirit as we connect with a reality beyond ourselves and partner with God. This is why the Psalmist says, “Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.” Flow is part of what we experience in that partnership, and in that, God in turn uses flow to shape us. Bezalel experienced flow when he carved wood, David when he played the harp, Samson when he used his strength, Paul when he wrote a brilliant letter, Daniel when he ran a government, and Adam when he gardened. If other people report to you, one of the great spiritual acts of service you can perform is to ask whether they’re experiencing flow in their work, and help them experience it even more. When you’re working in the flow of service to God, when you’re experiencing flow in activities that enhance and bless the lives of others—you’re working “in the Spirit.” Paul was in the flow when he described himself as “poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything” (2Co 6:10 NIV).
