TRUE PEACE COMES FROM JESUS



We often roam around trying to find peace, trying to find happiness, trying to fill this big void that is in our lives or have been left. Out of desperation, we end falling into disaster in search of true happiness, love and peace. How sad we sometimes find ourselves as we even end up making fools of ourselves and end up breaking down and crying

Be still, don’t move, look up to heaven because God provides absolute happiness, peace and love that we desire. If you make the Most High God your dwelling, your life will change so much and you will experience peace that you have long wanted.
How useless is it sometimes trying to find peace in all wrong places? We try finding it in our girlfriends/boyfriends, friends and even through our families but end up realising that instead of them filling the void in our lives, they makes that hole even bigger and bigger.
How mightily is God Almighty who knows your heart, life and how much you want peace? True peace is not found in people but it is Jesus who is the ultimate provider of peace we desperately need in our lives.

Stop looking for happiness and peace in wrong places, this world doesn't have peace on its own, so how will it gives you peace if it doesn't have peace on itself?  Why waste your time, money and even resources trying to fill the hole in your life that God can feel in seconds? What takes you hours, years or a lifetime can be filled by God in seconds!!

God created us out of his own image, he knows our lives more than ourselves, he knows everything about us, and from the number of our hair to the tip of your toes he knows everything. You might have cried, had problems or had your heart broken in so many pieces that it may seem hard to put it together again.

Do not despair, call on Jesus, make God the Most High your dwelling place and see how peaceful your life will be, how problem free you will be, you will be filled with happiness, love and peace. You won’t have any void in your life because those in the LORD experience true happiness.

Forget about the world, make God your dwelling place, your resting place, and give your life to Jesus because True Peace comes from Jesus. He is the source of True peace.

JESUS THE BEGINNER


The bible says in the beginning was the Word, the Word was with God and the Word was God, if then God himself started his beginning with the word, what makes you think that you can start anything else without the word of God??

Meaning that as it is said in the bible, invite Jesus (THE WORD) in everything that you do, therefore in everything we do, we ought and must start first with the word (Jesus).
When you wake up in the morning, let Christ be the first person to talk to, he must be your first priority hence he started everything with the word of God, he spoke the word and the word in the beginning was with God and the word was God! Jesus is the beginning of everything that is why the scriptures say He is the beginning and the end.

 Allow Jesus to begin everything in your life, on the contrary if we don’t invite him to begin our lives and when the going gets tough, it is when we want to invite him, and don’t you think if you could invite him in the beginning of things, things would be different?

Start everything with the Word of God and your day will be an awesome day.
Be Blessed

Why is it difficult to forgive?

Mpho Olifant


Why is difficult to forgive your fellow brothers and sisters? Why have you hardened your heart? Yes they might have hurt you and caused you excruciating pain but you must learn to forgive.

Genesis 37:11 gives an insight about how much Josephs brothers hated him because he was their fathers favourite, they conspired to murder him but ended up selling him. He spent most of his entire life in Egypt and grew up without his father who adored him so much and his brothers but at the end, he took care of the very same brothers who had plotted to assassinate him, helped them and forgave them!!

Was it easy for him? No, but because he loved and served an omnipotent God, he forgave his brothers and after forgiving them, his was re-united with his father and brothers and able to move on happily.

How many times have you asked God for forgiveness? How many times did God forgive you and help you? Why can’t you do the same to those who have hurt you? Especially in tough times. No matter how hard  it is, learn to be forgiveful and I assure you, you will be  ecstatic, have joy, be able to forgive those who come to you and begs for your forgives, regardless of what they did to you, don’t keep quiet, just forgive them without any mention of the past.

Let God deal with every situation, whatever what might have happened belongs in the past and let God deal with it. Kneel down and pray, tell God that you forgive all those who have hurt you and ask God to forgive them also. We are all created by God Almighty; God knows what to do, never judge those who hurt you, let God deal with them and forgive them.

The God of our fathers Abraham, Joseph and Moses has seen our misery, let’s bow down bringing him honour and praise. The minute you forgive, you do not think or perceive them as foes anymore but your heart will be at peace.

How can you love God when you are not able to forgive because God forgives and is love? Do not hold grudges, do not resent or hate, let go, just let go of all the hate causing you not to forgive, do not point fingers but give all to God.

1 John 3:15 “whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer and you know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him” (KJV)
