- Rise Up To Your Glorious Destiny

"Everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made.” (Isaiah 43:7 NIV)

In Exodus 31, we are told that God called out Bezaleel, and on that day he awoke into his glorious destiny. He became the man he was designed to be that day God lighted upon him. He became the envy of men and of significance to his generation. Everything that was to be used by the priests of that dispensation, he created according to all God instructed.

But I dare to wonder what the son of Uri was prior to that point. Perhaps just one of the multitudes; a part of the crowd. Just getting by, and didn't know he was destined to do beyond that. He woke up, and was separated from the rest of the bunch into his destiny. It is time for you to wake up too. Get to His light. Separate yourself. Indulge yourself in His Word, in prayer and fasting unto the Lord, and get lightened up. 

The scripture says His Word gives light (Psalm 119:130), and in His light we find ours (Psalm 36:9). And once we have found it, we'd break forth on all sides and greatness shall come to the brightness of our rising (Isaiah 60:1-3).

Our theme verse says that as long as you are called by God's Name--as we all are as Christians, you are created for glory. Hence, arise, break forth in His light and into your glorious destiny.

Giving Generously

-
DAILY VITAMIN  There is a difference between giving and giving generously. Generosity is more than just how much you give, but how hearted you do. What makes the poor fellow rich in the sight of God is how richly he gives even though in need himself. Richly, not in terms of quantity or even quality, nor quantifiable mass, but richly based on how much from the heart it is given. Was the heart rich in compassion, God's love and mercy as it gave? Or was it full of egotism, self-pride and every trait that makes him believe it is all in his power? Remember, a broken heart and a contrite spirit[full of the first traits], God wil not despise (Ps 51:17); and as long as there is a willingness of heart and readiness of mind[spurred by genuine love], it is acceptable towards God (2 Cor 8:11-12). This is why God isn't just crazy in love with any giver, but a cheerful giver. One whose givings start from the heart outward. One who first gives with the heart and reflects it by his hands. Tha

See It God's Way

DAILY VITAMIN - See It God's Way "For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. They are plans for good and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope." (Jeremiah 29:11 TLB)     Have you ever noticed how at some point in your life when everything seemed to be going AWOL, then all of a sudden something great came out of it all? At least I have seen it happen without number in my life and others'. Well, that's exactly what God does for a living- turning bitter sources into a spring of life.     Just like most of us, one man who had a myriad of experience regarding this has to be David. David once said that he would have fainted if he hadn't believed to see God's goodness in his life. And went ahead in advising us to wait patiently for all God has promised regardless of what we are currently going through (Psalm 27:13-14). And believe me, he knows what he was talking about.     For instance, David had been told he had been chosen by God to

Desist From Rash Decisions

DAILY VITAMIN Decisions made out of anger or envy are not only self destructive, but they also affect the attitude of those we seem not to desire their hurt. For instance, when the sons of Jacob conspired to kill Joseph, to them it was the perfect way to get rid of the 'big dreamer' that made them all look like vision-less fellows, and had taken their father's affection from them; so they took it upon themselves and agreed that they were totally correct in their intended evil action. After they had sold him and feigned his death, they might have believed it had all ended, only to be shocked with the countenance of their father, thereby sentencing themselves to a lifetime of grief and sorrows from the man they honored most- their father Israel. That alone was enough to prick their conscience until they were clouded with the mist of regret. They sought his attention for themselves, but all they created was a deficit to their own loss; thus causing more harm than what warran

Love Is Where Life Begins

DAILY VITAMIN What's the most important thing to you in life? Think for a while before you answer. And you can take as long as it takes. Alright! Are you ready now? Let's continue. In everything you do always remember that love comes before ambition. Most times we get so carried away in climbing the ladder of success that we fail to recognize and notice when there are hands stretching high for us to help lift them up. We so much pursue self-purposed desires that we miss those God sends our way to impact; not that they didn't show up, but that we failed to notice their arrival.  And guess what: Our silver lining of greatness in the sands of time and in the mouth of men is not built by the success we built for ourselves, but by how much success we attained in imparting and influencing people. Any achievement of ours' that has no positive impact on others isn't labeled success, but a self-fulfilled goal; and that's why Mother Teresa wrote 'a life not lived

The Power Of I Am

DAILY VITAMIN - The Power Of I Am "As a man thinks in his heart, so is he" (Proverbs 23:7)        There's nothing more powerful than self-affirmation, especially when it is on the basis of who and what the Word of God says you are. This is what Jesus lived on every day. The Jews may not have believed Him, Pilate may not have either, but He knew He was the Son of God, and never stopped saying it. With this understanding, He stood above every situation in time just as the Son of God would.        On the contrary, a lot of people have been declared sons but yet live like slaves. This is because even though the Word affirms it to be true, God can never bless you beyond what you think of yourself. Psalm 49:20 says "Man that is in honour, and understands not, is like the beast that perishs". Your level of understanding about your identity is usually the extent of exploits you can get out of it. You can only become what you know, accept and believe is true.
