ARBITRATOR

PERCEPTION:
                 ARBITRATOR

Matthew 7:1-2

"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.
--------------------------------------------
    It is easy to go about seeing lines of weaknesses in others and trying to conclude on given matters. Even with what they wear and how they look like. We don't mean 'not thinking about them or having an opinion'. Obviously your mind will produce opinions on a given person from looks to dress work.
There are people who say to others that they will never make it. They say that they will not manage. Even after opening a small business selling small merchandise, they say to them that they will fail in that. And when they wish to scale and try to share with them their plans to scale the business, they say to them that they cannot manage such platform. Telling a person the truth is okay. But these ones say it in manners affirming that there is a definite failure for the person and that even with great trial, they will never ever make it.

There is something that cooks as such judgement is made. The reason I have seen why they do so is because they feel it is all about them and it is them alone to hold the top. And that as they see others trying to hold the top, they are threatened and try to fight back with judgement. Indirectly, Satan wants to sell a wrong perception to the victim being judged.
But the other thing that cooks is a perception that they who are judging receive. As you try to look at impossibilities in others, you too deposit a spirit of impossibilities in yourself.... silently. As you try to tell someone else that there is a speck in your eye, specks in yours become more visible. As you try to dilute another person's existence to make yours sound, you become more and more nullfied.

What you do to others also gets back to you. 
Judging others shows that what is thriving in you is hungry for more. It shows insufficiency in you. But you know the kind of judgement am talking about. Being an arbitrator for who succeeds and who doesn't is inhuman. The judge is above us who knows the ways of each man. The person who has spent his time building his character to qualify for ultra success cannot be shadowed by people; God is the commander. Whatever you have done ,people cannot nullify; God is the judge. The criticism that doesn't "hold any water" and is not called for - will not make you stranded in want and longing; God has the final say over your life. Change from perceiving others as the ultimate determant of your destiny to God as the driver and arbitrator.

                   GOD BLESS YOU

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...

THE CREED AT THE THRONE

THE CREED AT THE THRONE   Psalms 40:1  I waited patiently for the Lord; he turned to me and heard my cry. -------------------------------------------- There are of course alot of times we pray for something and we feel we need that fast enough. And if am not mistaken , it is most of the times that we pray. We simply want answers right then. And some demand for the answers right away. But either way, you want God to come to your aid at the time you think He should come. But have you ever wondered why some people pray and receive their answers alittle fast compared to a similar prayer someone else had? Well that happens, you can pray and I pray the same thing yet we receive answers at different times.  With the scripture above, interpreting it may seem easy, but diving into it could seem a bit hard. The psalmist says, he patiently waited, then the Lord came to him and heard Him. The important note here is patiently waited. And secondly we see that the Lord comes...

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...
