ZERO TO HERO

ZERO TO HERO

 Psalms 113:7-9

 He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap; 8 he seats them with princes, with the princes of their people. 9 He settles the barren woman in her home as a happy mother of children.

Praise the Lord.
--------------------------------------------
In the citadel of Susa was a Jew who with others had been carried into exile by Nebuchadnezzar. Mordecai as the Jew, had adopted a seemingly desperate girl. A girl who after had lost everything including her mother and father had become increasingly desperate. He took her as her own daughter. 
Them living under the confines of king Xerxes were subject to his decrees. The king decreed, ...he had lost his stuborn wife through Persian policies and now needed another wife. He passed a decree for nobles to find him a better wife. 
And because Jews were part of the decree, some ladies including Esther were taken for scrutiny. 
And if you remember the story, after 10months of beauty and health treatment, Esther went to the king. She was liked by the king more than the other women. She was made the queen. She was taken from zero to hero.
God by her side.

Our lives are full of ashes. Many tend to thrive on grass level and even never dream of a heroic realm. Even Esther never had it as a goal to be there...at least it's not written. But we see how God raises her from the dust and seats her among the princes and nobles.

Have you ever wondered how rich our God is . It is obvious we can't think of that; mere fact being that we can't measure such wealth on scales. But let's break it down. How rich do you think the Earth is ? If you were to combine all it's resources and people and value that....how wealthy would it be. It would be lingering in trillions of dollars of even quadrillion. That is too big to think about. But if you remember one motivation written sometimes ago, we elaborated the expanse of the universe and how God has made this place insanely vast. For the uninitiated, the earth where we are measuring wealth in quadrillion and are being mad at is just a piece of dust among the vast arrays of celestial bodies in our Galaxy. Even before we talk about Galaxy , our biggest planet - Jupiter can house over 1300 earths. The sun is too big that an estimate of 1.4million earths can fit inside. That is just our solar system. Let's not dive into that so much. But the visible universe has trillions of galaxies which house trillions of solar systems. That is insanely vast.
That was to remind us of God's greatness.

That said, God is able to lift you. No matter where you are. He has all the power to flip you to the other side of the green plain. He has the power to lift you from the ashes to seat you with princes and Kings. Believe in Him. You can be moved from zero to hero. You can be healed, provided for, protected. One thing to have is faith in the vast wealth of our might father.

                    GOD BLESS YOU

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...

FORWARD

FORWARD Luke 13:33  In any case, I must press on today and tomorrow and the next day—... --------------------------------------------    A Levite in the desert thought was cunning. After killing the Egyptian, he sauntered back to the community. Little did he realise that he was noticed by his fellow and that the news had gone about faster than it could. Knowing this, he fled to Midian where he met the Lord. And being asked by the Lord to rescue his people from slavery, Moses refused. He thought that role was better with someone more superior. But after the Lord insisting, he took the task. The people who were thought as slaves were no lesser to stubbornness and disrespect. They gave Moses hard time. But one thing that happened was forward movement.  Even the Lord used lots of wonders to sustain them through the journey and yet many died from their stubbornness. But regardless of their deaths, the journey went forward. God moved forward. Moses faced the worst of trial...
