God's Calendar

 Exodus 12:2 "This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you."

When God was about to start His formal relationship with Israel, the very first thing He did was to change their calendar. This is quite remarkable for two(2) major reasons, which are:

1.A Calendar shows various breakings of days, which helps in dating special occasions.

2. A Calendar helps in showing general progress of man in his plans & affairs in calculation within a stipulated time.

These two are quite important because God was about to set up a whole new world for Israel that would regulate their occasions & progress as a clan. Now, in the New Testament, the same holds, do not forget the Old Testament was the shadow of the New, meaning the New Testament is the real deal while the Old Testament helped lay the blueprint for the New. In Christ, the calendar God has set for His people is "GRACE". Everyday, God has set the time to a time of Grace, Grace is the calendar for the one in Christ. Grace regulates " special occasions" for the Christian, Grace helps in making the progress of man evident. Grace is available every day. Everything in God is a make-up of Grace, the ability to radiate God's goodness. As you celebrate a new month, and even the beginning of the "EMBER" Month, I'd like to bring to your remembrance, this Grace still holds, see it & function in/with it. Happy New month.🙋🏻‍

Priority information

  Proverbs  16:3 Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established. Most people tell others about their plans first even before they remember to tell God". It's so true, I've found out most times people have opinions, but God never has an opinion, God has direction. People have opinions, God has direction. While speaking with a friend yesterday, she recalled how some people had tried to talk her down/out from doing something, and I felt well, people always have opinions, and like David Ologbonori, a life-coach posited, " Opinions are cheap, they are everywhere, and they can be wrong". While I thought about the fact that sometimes people tell others about their plans before God, I thought to myself "why should a man inform others about what he wants to do even before the waymaker Himself?"😏. This doesn't mean you can't talk to "destiny-helpers", or " dreams investors ", but it has to do with who you give p...

The Noble

Who is a noble person? Through Scripture references and inferences we'll embark on a journey that seeks to define and show us who God deems to be a noble person and why being one is an absolute no brainer, especially in this present noble-starved age. Pls note- the opinions presented in this article are derivations from the Scriptures and not a carnal fabrication or mere mental or cultural estimation of the author. You can look em up yourself to confirm the assertions and/or suggestions. The term noble/nobleman appears 40 times in the King James version of the Bible but it was first used in Exodus24:11 to describe certain "elders" who were to work alongside Moses in leading, guiding and directing the people of Israel according to the desires of God. Point to note is they were "leaders" and men of high repute often in the classification of princes and rulers over other people. So, if you're over anyone in leadership you're actually a noble save t...

Peace, Soundness of Mind

  2 Timothy  1:7 "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. " I'm a firm believer that one of the most vital if not the most vital aspect of the human health is the mental health. Its so important to have a mind that's put together. A lot of times, there are challenges that come our way which test our mental capacity and strength, some times they are quite overwhelming, making it seem like we just need to go somewhere solitary to have a "cool off", however the scriptures promises something quite lovely. God says to those who accept Him in their lives, He has given "... a sound mind" , the phrase "sound mind" is translated from the Greek word "Sophronismos", which means " a mental state well balanced with accurate judgement". This is the kind of mind you have in Christ. A mind configured to make accurate and sound judgement, a mind that's in the rest of God. Most i...
