<p>Abraham when he was called brought a Lot with him; today most of us when we are called bring a lot of Lots with us. And that really is not a problem in bringing our Lots with us, after all Jesus wants us just as we are.</p>
<p></p>
<p></p>

<p>Abraham when he was called brought a Lot with him; today most of us when we are called bring a lot of Lots with us. And that really is not a problem in bringing our Lots with us, after all Jesus wants us just as we are.</p>
<p></p>
<p></p>
<p>However, there comes a point in our lives just as it did with Abram when our old self and our new self begins to come into conflict with each other, a time when we are unable to receive all that is due to us because we have ran out of space, a time when all around us becomes crowded, a time when we must realise our accommodation is too cramped, when we must realise that our abode has become severely overcrowded.</p>
<p></p>
<p></p>
<p>Abraham got to that point in time, a point when he realise a change must happen, in order to receive more, a point when he realise, hang on, I have gotten some blessings but surely I have not got all that I should receive, a point where he realise something is wrong, he now has more than before but he is not happy, in fact he seem to be having a lot more conflicts instead of enjoyment.</p>
<p></p>
<p></p>
<p>It's at that time he realise what we also should realise that when we are called, we should be in enjoyment, we should be in constant receipt, we should be more bless not less.</p>
<p></p>
<p></p>
<p>The thing is Abram soon realise what the problem was, he knew the solution to the problem. Most of us, however, want the best of both worlds, we know there is a problem but unfortunately we are blinded by our Lots, we are unable to see further than our well watered garden, we fail to discern and abhor the evil surrounding us. Some of us, have become greedy, we have become spoilt, we have become complacent, and we remain in disobedient, all of which prevent us from seeing as Abram did the solution.</p>
<p></p>
<p></p>
<p>And I hear you ask what solution; well here goes, there is a point when we must separate ourselves from our Lots so we can receive our blessings in abundance. A point when we must realise the things we use to do we should do no more, a time when we separate ourselves from the things of the devil, a time when we leave the darkness behind and wander into the light. A time when we say goodbye and let our Lot separate from us and travel on alone.</p>
<p></p>
<p></p>
<p><strong>I pray this will be a great blessing to someone</strong>.</p>

<p>A little over two thousand years ago battered and torn He laid down His life to justify you and I from our sins. Three days later He became victorious so you and I could see the light and have everlasting life. Our Saviour desires only the best for you and I so stand firm in your belief and faith in Him. Do not be discourage neither look at the confusion around you instead fixed your eyes firmly towards the eye of the storm. There you will find Jesus calling you to find rest in His presence while he brings peace to the storm.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Remember we do not have the strength or the ability in which to still our storm; neither can we succeed on our own. Remember the disciples John 21: 1-12 without Jesus they had no catch but with Jesus they were able so too will we be able to do all things when He is with us.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Stay blessed as you remember why he laid His life down and why He took it up again.</p>

So God created man in is own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. Genesis1:27<br />
<br />
And behold, thou shall conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son and shalt call his name Jesus Luke 1:31<br />
<br />
It was today when my eyes became open to the significance of the two actions above. You see the thing which make this great Bible of ours so great is everyday we can find new treasures, we could read this great book a thousand or more times but it does not matter when your heart is truly with God he begins each day to reveal to us more and more it’s like stepping into Aladdin cave and being confronted with all the treasures.<br />
<br />
I am not of course saying the Bible is Aladdin’s cave; the Bible is far greater than that but to try to express the feelings when God makes a new revelation and knowing the importance that people of the world place on silver and gold it was easier to bring one’s mind to those treasures. And you are wondering what are those two scriptures above got to do with Aladdin’s Cave well nothing it is just to explain my feeling of joy each time God open my eyes to show me something and I know some of you will be saying oh where has she been all the time but God does not always show us the same things at the same time and sometimes he is showing us but our eyes have not yet open so we cannot see what is under our very nose.<br />
<br />
You see we all know the story of our Great Creator who created man in his own image and we accept it and never once did I thought to question why he created him as a man and not a child. He was the first Adam and he was on this world not as a baby neither a child but as a fully pledge grown man old enough to get married and to fend for himself.<br />
<br />
Then I see the 2nd Adam who came into this world but this time as a helpless and dependable being one not able to fend for himself one who is totally dependant on someone to take care of all his needs, he needs some one to carry him, someone to feed him, someone to cloth him, someone to speak for him, someone to protect him in fact he needs someone who will be everything for him.<br />
<br />
As my eyes began to open I look back and remember when my own children were born and this is probable going to be difficult for the men don’t actually experience birth and for women who is yet to give birth to fully grasp, but as I gaze upon my new born baby placed in my arms for the first time I was over come with emotions untold when I realise that here was the most beautiful thing in the world the best treasure imaginable place in my hands and my baby was totally dependant on my action for all his needs. I knew at that moment in time that I would do everything in my power to protect to care for and to provide for my baby. I knew than that my baby was now my life, my treasure. I knew then and as the days became weeks that I would lay down my life for my little princesses, I would do anything to make sure their lives was better than mine I knew no matter what they would also be loved by me and I would also be there for them.<br />
<br />
You see today I realise the purpose for Jesus the second Adam coming to us as a baby, you see God wanted us to understand and know the kind of love he has for us and that we need to have for each other in order to get back to where we should be, but more important than that God wanted us to know that just as we loved our own baby and provide for our child He as our Father and we His children will be provided for, He will take care of all our needs, He will carry us through every step life, He will be our guide, He will be our protector. Our Father wanted us to realise that we don’t need to worry about anything all we have to do just as a baby begin to grow and shows love and obedience to his parents, that’s all we have to do and all our needs will be met.<br />
<br />
You see God gave us the gift of baby Jesus so we would get to truly know him and realise His love for us.<br />
<br />
I always wondered how a man like David who was certainly not perfect be a man after God’s own Heart and this was something that I ponder on and keep asking God for the revelation, every day I beg him to let me be even closer to Him than David to show me how my soul can be bound with His and my heart can be intermingle with His, that has been and still is my greatest desire. And today I realise that the man David in the first 3 verse of Psalm 27 gave us a clue because he realise what I believe God want us to realise by the 2nd Adam coming to us as a baby, God wanted us to know that He God is everything to us. He God wanted us to realise He will provide all our needs. He God wanted us to realise how much He loved us. He God wanted us to know we have a way out of trouble because He God will protect and guide us. David realise who God was the awesomeness of God and because he realise the importance of God the Father and loved him as a parent. God showed him love with no bounds just as we mothers would love our children even if they were the terror of earth we would still love them because they are our children so too God loves us.Put your trust in God to see your miraclestag:stayblessed.ning.com,2009-12-25:2917072:BlogPost:346692009-12-25T18:30:00.000ZSister Angelahttp://stayblessed.ning.com/profile/SisterAngela
In November I woke up one day unable to walk and in such pain I could never image, for a week I was not able to walk, sit or bend or attend work for the pain. I was taking 9 prescribed tablets every 3 hours and still the pain was unbearable. I was told that I needed a walking stick to aid me, brother I am no where near the age to need a walking stick I have not even reach fifty yet was what came into my head, Gods purpose for me did not include me being incapacitated, unable to walk.

In November I woke up one day unable to walk and in such pain I could never image, for a week I was not able to walk, sit or bend or attend work for the pain. I was taking 9 prescribed tablets every 3 hours and still the pain was unbearable. I was told that I needed a walking stick to aid me, brother I am no where near the age to need a walking stick I have not even reach fifty yet was what came into my head, Gods purpose for me did not include me being incapacitated, unable to walk. When He called me to follow him He rescued me to make my life better not worst. He made a promise to me to look after me He can’t and will not let me down was thoughts that went through my mind.<br />
<br />
When the pain was at its worst which was almost every minute I began to scream, the pain I was in anything could have come out but I knew this was one of two things that was happening either it's the Lord's test for me or satan fear because he knew I was getting too close to my Saviour.<br />
<br />
I was in more distress as I was for the first time unable to read my bible because the pain was too much for me to concentrate but luckily I have a few memorised chapters of the bible in my head so I started reciting them aloud through the pain, satan needed to know my determination if it was him I thought.<br />
<br />
After a while not being able to bear the pain anymore, not knowing that night if I would make it through the night I scream out Lord if this is you know that I am not going to fail your test, whatever you do to me I am determine to still scream out to Jesus because whether you want me or not I am yours and I am not going nowhere. And satan's if this is your doing know that you have already lost because I am already a victor and I scream Jesus even the louder. Four weeks later still in pain I realise I had not been able to do my normal fasting due to this pain so I set aside a Saturday to fast and others was saying you cant fast when you are not well and I said I am going to let God determine if I fast or not. Saturday came and I began my fast completely dry no fluid which means no tablet or water, half through the day the pain came with more vengeance and in my mind I needed to break this fast to take my tablet because the pain was unbearable but I said Lord just a little longer please and every time the pain got worst I just said Lord please bear with me until the Fast was over. I went to bed that night with the pain as severe as never before. On the Sunday morning after a night of crying, tossing screaming in pain the name of Jesus because every movement the pain was incredible unbearable. I got up out of bed and there was no pain I began to walk as if nothing had happen, just as mysteriously the pain came the same way it went, I decided to see if I could jump and brother I am still walking, jumping, running. The pain has gone without any explanation. The hospital and doctors who thought I was doomed to be crippled and using walking aid was not God.<br />
<br />
At times brother we are being tested but we must cried out even more to Jesus through our tribulation, through my pain when ever the movement made it worst I determined in my sorrowful heart that I would scream nothing else but the name of Jesus thanking him even more for this test the more the pain the more I thank him for the pain. I even said at times satan if this is you I am thanking my God because He has to stay by me side because I am His own. My miracle happened because I put my trust in God. So too can yours.<br />
<br />
Be Bless and stay encouraged, never give up stay firm and look to the prize which is in sight. Remember God has brought you too far for anything to get in the way.<br />

Matthew 25:31-46<br />

You know there are so many people who have set out on the Christian pathway who have stumbled and fell and appear to have gone unnoticed. I believe we have a responsibility to bring in new souls but that we also have a responsibility to keep souls in.<br />

You know there are so many people who have set out on the Christian pathway who have stumbled and fell and appear to have gone unnoticed. I believe we have a responsibility to bring in new souls but that we also have a responsibility to keep souls in.<br />
<br />
So often one comes to Christ and once they are in there is no guidance but I truly believe God is grieving at the souls who are falling by the wayside. We as Christians have a responsibility to encourage and uplift each other we need to really become our brother's keeper.<br />
<br />
The fact is most saints don’t even know the first names of the other saints in their own churches, which is probably why so many have fall by the wayside. When trouble comes we need to stand together but if you saints don’t know each other how will you know when your sisters or brothers are in trouble.<br />
<br />
As Christians we seem to be all about self and no one else, but Jesus said when I was sick and in prison you never visited me when I was hunger you never fed me when I was naked you never, clothed me.<br />
<br />
How much do you know about your brothers and sister, do you know their name, could you find them if they were taken to hospital, do you know where they live, do you know if they have food to eat, do you know if why they were not at church today.<br />
<br />
Saints think about it if you don't take time to know your brothers and sisters in Christ how will you know when Jesus is sick, in prison, hunger or naked. Remember when you do for your brothers and sisters you do for Jesus ters you do for JesusDon't Give Uptag:stayblessed.ning.com,2009-12-24:2917072:BlogPost:346362009-12-24T21:30:00.000ZSister Angelahttp://stayblessed.ning.com/profile/SisterAngela
Luke 18:35-43<br />
<br />
The Blind man who was born without sight did not resign himself to spending the rest of his life in darkness. when the opportunity presented itself he cry out for help even through others around him was discouraging him he cried out the more because he knew the prize that was waiting for him if he could just maintain his faith and keep pressing on.<br />

<br />
The Blind man who was born without sight did not resign himself to spending the rest of his life in darkness. when the opportunity presented itself he cry out for help even through others around him was discouraging him he cried out the more because he knew the prize that was waiting for him if he could just maintain his faith and keep pressing on.<br />
<br />
He believed he would receive a gift if only he could make himself heard and seen. He cried the more because he saw and recognised that here was someone very special passing by who had the power to give him his sight and because of his determination he was right because through his faith he receive his sight.<br />
<br />
The story of the blind man equally apply to us as Christians because we will suffer many tribulations, temptation and distraction in our journey path way, because satan's purpose is to prevent us from receiving our glory he will put obstacle in our path. Equally there are many storms in our lives raging out of control at times and trials that seem never ending.<br />
<br />
However as Christians we have to hold steadfastly to our faith we have to abide in Christ, we have to keep ourselves fully armoured, we have to keep our focus firmly on the prize at the end of the journey.<br />
<br />
Our faith must believe that our journey's end will hold a reward so great that it is worth putting up with the tribulations, the obstacle, the storms and distractions that comes our way. We must know and be aware of that sure tomorrow when we abide with Christ.Christmas Timetag:stayblessed.ning.com,2009-12-24:2917072:BlogPost:346352009-12-24T14:00:00.000ZSister Angelahttp://stayblessed.ning.com/profile/SisterAngela
I think most people who are arguing about the reason for Christmas and Jesus name is still missing the point most people know that the 25 December was not the date Mary gave birth to Jesus, the date is not important if it was the Holy Spirit would have ensure through inspiration it was written in the Bible and it was not written thus neither in the original or reproduction what was written was that Jesus was born and was to be a gift to us for our sins and we were to worship him.<br />

I think most people who are arguing about the reason for Christmas and Jesus name is still missing the point most people know that the 25 December was not the date Mary gave birth to Jesus, the date is not important if it was the Holy Spirit would have ensure through inspiration it was written in the Bible and it was not written thus neither in the original or reproduction what was written was that Jesus was born and was to be a gift to us for our sins and we were to worship him.<br />
<br />
If you are were not so caught up in dates you would know that the date does not matter because Jesus is born every day. How, whenever a new believer come to Christ, Jesus is birthed in that believers life so Jesus my Brother and Sister is born on December 25 and on every single day of the year.<br />
<br />
The fact is His birth should be celebrated every day of our lives and it probable is celebrated everyday by people like me. However, I take advantage of the 2 days a year that the government of the land allow all things to close so that for those two days I can totally use mind body and soul to reflect on my Almighty God without distraction.<br />
<br />
My Brother and sister while you are so consumed with the fact of precise date satan is looking with glee knowing that he is managing to divide Gods people because you are all concentrating on something God has not inspired us to think about. My God whose Omnipresence is everywhere and through His Omniscience knowledge, knows and understand all things at all times He will be aware of His many names so whether I call him Yeshua or Jesus or The Almighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace, el shadai He knows and understand because after all it was Him that separated the people to make them speak different languages so why would He do this if He wanted everyone to speak the same, so Jesus I will continue to use.<br />
<br />
The constant arguments over things that are trivial is taking away from the thing that is Greatest about our God, while there are others with their gods forcing others to remain with them our God is the only true God that does not require His people to worship Him by force He gives us all free will. You said you don't believe in Christmas leave it at that you have made your views heard God does not require you to do anymore. When Jesus sends His disciples to proclaim the good news to the entire world He did not instruct them to force the issue. Our job is to spread the news not to fight the cause and if it is not heard or accepted the instruction is to leave and shake the dust from your feet. There is nowhere in Scripture we are instructed to force anyone to use a particular name or phrase even the Jews use other names for God because Yahweh is considered too sacred to use.<br />
<br />
To say a celebration on 25 December is pagan is utter rubbish Jesus celebrated what you now call Hanukkah on 25 and 26 December the same two days we celebrate, only Hanukkah in is day was call the Lords Day. As we are attributing the same day to Christ and knowing it is not the season or date of His natural or supernatural birth (virgin birth) in effect what we are doing His making it the Lords day. So come on people lets rejoice in the fact Jesus has a birthday everyday because everyday He is born in someone's heart.Season Greetings in English, Spanish, French & Hebrewtag:stayblessed.ning.com,2009-12-23:2917072:BlogPost:346022009-12-23T00:12:37.000ZSister Angelahttp://stayblessed.ning.com/profile/SisterAngela

Before coming to UK I had not heard of Halloween but it did not take me long after arriving in the Uk even though I was a mere child to realise that people who participate in this celebration was giving importance to the Devil. It is so sad to see so many people who may claim not to celebrate but who indirectly give importance to the devil by allowing their children to partake in this devilish celebration then we as a nation sit and wonder what is happening to the children of today.<br />

Before coming to UK I had not heard of Halloween but it did not take me long after arriving in the Uk even though I was a mere child to realise that people who participate in this celebration was giving importance to the Devil. It is so sad to see so many people who may claim not to celebrate but who indirectly give importance to the devil by allowing their children to partake in this devilish celebration then we as a nation sit and wonder what is happening to the children of today.<br />
<br />
The simple true are, we as a nation are sacrificing our children through this celebration to the devil and its satanic ritual which in my book is the same thing the children of Israel did when Moses when to receive the commandments which led to them wandering the desert for 40 years as a punishment.<br />
<br />
Even on these sites we hear people of God justifying this by saying we should celebrate Halloween and justifying it by saying all we have to do is dress up instead as Jesus or a heavenly theme. Now I don’t know which Bible these people read because my Bible tells me when something is not right to PRAY it did not say dress up and join in with the wrong.<br />
<br />
When we decide to partake in this celebration by dressing up with the theme of something from heaven instead of praying or we are being disobedient to the word of God by creating images of things in heaven or earth. What are we teaching our children when we dress up in heavenly things to celebrate this pagan festival are we not saying its okay to worship the devil as long as we became images of things from heaven<br />
<br />
We are not talking about a day, we know God made everyday, we are talking about celebrating and giving importance to the devil, giving importance to the darkness and the dead remember our God is a God of the light and the living He is not a God of the dark or of the dead so stop kidding yourself that all you need to do is dress up in heavenly attire it is still devil worshipping, go to church or get in your closet and pray for the almighty power of God to unfold on this pagan celebration. We as Children of God cannot keep wanting to partake in the things of this world because it seem attractive to us and because we want to belong, we do not belong, we are not of this world we cannot be half in Christ and half in this world.<br />
<br />
Come on children of God wake up, the devil’s job is to deceive us, on October 31 let the body of Christ get down on their knees and pray to the one true God don’t join them just PRAY.
