BLESSED FAITH

BLESSED FAITH

Luke 1:45

 Blessed is she who has believed that what the Lord has said to her will be accomplished!”
--------------------------------------------
In all generation, it was a never heard of reality. There was no reality as a woman to bear children single handedly. Even in the miracles that were heard of, such a miracle was never enlisted. But there they were, Mary was promised to have a child and her husband was to be Joseph. But even before statements sunk in her virgin soul, she was pregnant. She was pregnant through the power of the holy Spirit.
But how could she ever tell her relatives about her new status.? How on earth could she explain her claim? But not going further, just right within her, how much of faith could she have to make her believe the angelic messages. 
Well, she took on the blind beliefs. But one thing I have noticed is that many of biblical heroes who made faith first were blessed before the fruit of their faith. The first statement that Job said after he was told that all who were his children are dead was that God has given and God has taken away. "Naked did I come and naked will I go." It was a strong sign of strong faith. There was nothing that prompted job to ever say a cursing word to his God. He presented faith even before he heard a word from God. God blessed him double fold because of the faith he had..." first hand Faith.".

Faith alone in the promises of our father calls for a blessing. It is like someone says he will buy you a house and that because you quickly believed that, he gives you cash at hand. It is blessed faith. There is a difference between Thomas who believed that Jesus rose again after he had seen and touched Him than those who were simply told and they believed at first hand. 
An element that we all need in our faith is the element of "first hand Faith.". You should not take too long to believe God's words. Believe God in whichever way He says it. Believe that He is able to do something with you even when you don't feel it was ever done. A blessing awaits for "first hand faith".

TRIBE OF LENDERS

TRIBE OF LENDERS   Proverbs 19:17  He who is kind and generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will reward him for what he has done. -------------------------------------------- It is easy to go through life with the mind of "it's not enough...it's not enough". By nature, we were created to recognize the fact that it's we first then .... We were created to survive and always know that there is not enough. Our genes have been made to think about ourselves alone and how we survive in the world of scarcity. This fact that thrives within us is not supposed to be proved true. There are several results that God has set for those that prove such rules wrong. You know, when you try to go against human nature and try to mimic the nature of God, you attract more of what God has set for the cause. As the human nature is self centered and self seeking, stepping out of such to pursue kindness and open hands attracts God's attention...it attracts the rewa...

OLDEN STRENGTH

OLDEN STRENGTH Psalm 77:1 I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. -------------------------------------------- It is easy to go through life thinking about the future and forgetting the past. Craving for the future is one thing I have realized does not end. Even the very rich still have cravings. There can not be a moment where cravings end and the mind is inactive only thriving in gratification. Such a moment is only created by us. Anyway, that was a by- the- way. Our point starts from here. The future does not hold the roots but the past does. The roots are not from the sky but are from where the tree started. What makes the tree strong are the roots .  What makes the future strong are the roots. They are the past. You cannot know where you should go unless you know where you came from. How typical you may know where you came from is another factor.  Knowing that God is great is not knowing the future that holds. Knowing that Go...

RADICAL SOUL

RADICAL SOUL Matthew 5:16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven. --------------------------------------------    In our world today, it is easier to have your light set under the table than to have it be on top of the table. It is easier to move in a group than to move alone. Standing for the right is harder nowadays than it was those days. Not because the governments have become more ruthless than they were those days, but because powerful governments of social influence have arisen than they were those days. The weapons available today are more stronger than what it was those days with the luxuries available...the developments. The 'social governments' have set standards which will not tolerate any fickle person in their space. And being a standing army of a government we represent...one of divine agendas, means we need to be rooted in one way. We need the spirit of typicality.  Of course...
