God's Vision Comes With His Provision

By Sis Christie Ndouli

Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God.” –Mark 10:27

What comes to mind when you hear the phrase, “Mission IsPossible”?  Some people might think of the movie, “Mission Impossible,” others may think about their own personal experience where they thought they wouldn't be able to make it, but God brought them through.

During your mission, God will not forsake you nor leave you. Although Joseph was in prison, he stayed faithful to God and God continued to bless him.  Joseph uses his faith in God to endure the suffering.

And by Joseph enduring his portion of suffering, it allows people like us to see that hope does not come from going around (avoiding) suffering, but rather going through it.

He will make a way. Take for instance the song, “Made a Way,” by Travis Greene, which describes the epitome of “Mission IsPossible.”

The chorus sings “You made a way/ When our backs were against the wall/And it looked as if it was over/ You made a way/ And we're standing here/ Only because You made a way/ You made a way.”  Even better than the chorus, the bridge digs deeper and reads, “You move mountains/You cause walls to fall/ With Your power/ Perform miracles/ There is nothing that's impossible/ And we're standing here/ Only because You made a way.”  With all that being said, “Mission IsPossible” refers to God making a way in our lives when man deems it impossible.

Halleluyah.
You will have good success this 2017.
Remain blessed. Shalom.

I am what I am by the Grace of God

By Pastor 'Deji Adewale

The mercy and grace of God helps us to serve Him effectively and powerfully. We are unworthy in our own strength and abilities . But when we receive the grace of God we are enabled to serve Him.

The Apostle Paul felt he was not even worthy to be called an Apostle because he persecuted the church of God. But the Grace of God transformed him and enabled him to labour more than anybody else. We need to receive the grace of God to overcome our weaknesses and limitations and serve God effectively.

The Lord wants us to come boldly before the throne of Grace to receive grace and mercy to help in time of need. In his dying days Paul still said – Philippians 3:7-10 – “But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ.

Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;” You will have good success this 2016.
Remain blessed.
Shalom.
