You have the Father's attention.

Judges  16:28 "And Samson called unto the LORD, and said, O Lord God, remember me, I pray thee, and strengthen me, I pray thee, only this once, O God, that I may be at once avenged of the Philistines for my two eyes."


Taking a line from Nosa's song "I go stay", He says ".... if these guys fit dey call God attention, what of me wey be new creation...". Its so remarkable that scripturally the new creation is described as one who has direct access to God the Father, in comparison to those who prayed in the old Testament. Taking a look at the story of Samson who after he had fallen into the hands of the Philistines after disobeying God praying and God still heard him just shows there's so much more to this " thing". Samson could get God's attention after "messing up", why should you being a new creation in Christ feel so bad and dejected to pray after messing up? Oh no!. I reckon that most times " pride " makes a man stay away from God when He does something wrong. If you ever do something wrong, that's the exact time to draw closer to God more, staying away from God doesn't solve issues, it adds more to it. More so, taking a look at Hebrews4:16, it says "let us therefore come BOLDLY to the throne of Grace...." You must be quick to call on God whenever you know things don't go right, God is not a fault-finder, He's a love-giver. Samson wasn't ashamed to call on God, the new creation must always be BOLD to call on God. 

Do enjoy every bit of your day today.

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...
