Mercy & Dominion

Genesis 1:26

Human beings are God's dream creation.
Human beings are a major aspect of God's dream and the chief focus of God's creation.
Psalm 8:4-6
The dream of God for human beings which hasn't changed is that His chief creation does well.
God wants you to do well in life.
3 John 2

God created the first man Adam with the mandate and blessing  he needed to do well in life.
That blessing and mandate to do well in life was meant to spread to the whole of humanity from generation to generation.
Unfortunately the world became the way it is as a result of Adam and Eve's wrong choice.
Genesis 3:11-19
We do well in life when we follow God's instruction and choose what He wants for us. Adam and Eve didn't.
God's dream for human beings to do well in life hasn't changed despite the negative effect of Adam and Eve's wrong choice on the whole of creation.

Jesus came to restore the blessing Adam and Eve lost.
Jesus came to reverse the curse Adam and Eve caused.
Genesis 3:13,14
Jesus is our great hope to walk in God's blessing and dominion once again.
The coming of Jesus to the world is a great mercy shown to all of humanity.
God has extended His mercy to all of us through Jesus Christ.

The mercy of God brings blessings and dominion.
Genesis 1:28
God gave dominion to Adam and Eve to rule over creation.
Today we reign through Christ.
God is a God of dominion.
Daniel 7:14
Since man is created in God's image and likeness, God created man for dominion.

It is God's will that human beings choose rightly.
It is God's will we make the right choice of choosing Jesus Christ.
In Christ Jesus we can receive mercy and walk in dominion again.
Jesus rode on a donkey into Jerusalem according to scriptures.
It is popularly called 'the triumphal entry' because it shows Jesus being honored, triumphant, and making a peaceful entry. It reflected his dominion.
This is what we have come to know as palm Sunday.
This is what it is about.
Mark 11:1-10
May God's mercy produce dominion in your life.

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18

Navigating A New Year

 Isaiah  42:16 Our text passage above shows us God is the one who shows us the path to take and leads us in new directions. Your path matters to God. The way you you choose to take is important to God. Your steps are seen by God and ordered by God. Psalm 37:23 The year ahead of you matters to God too. Luke 13:8-9 Each year God has given you the grace to witness, experience, and journey through is another opportunity to be fruitful for God. God wants you to make the most of the year ahead of you to His glory. Human beings do not always know the way and path to go, we can be limited in wisdom. History shows we do not always make the best choices. The year ahead of us will require knowing the way to go, having the wisdom to make the best decisions and choices. Deuteronomy 30:19 To successfully navigate the year we need to stay in God.. To navigate is to find your way through, it is following the right path to a specific destination. Car drivers either buy a GPS/Navigation device system or

The Importance Of The Anointing

Acts 10:38 The anointing is the presence of the Holy Spirit with a person. The anointing speaks, the anointing directs, and the anointing teaches people what they need to know and do. 1 John 2:27 You need the anointing. You can grow in the anointing. It is also possible to depart from the anointing. The anointing won't depart from you but you can depart from the anointing. You should remain in Him. It is worth it investing time to understand the your anointing, growing in your anointing and obeying the anointing. As you get to know a person better by spending time with them, so it is with the anointing in your life. With the anointing, you can't go wrong. The anointing strategically positions you in God's kingdom and in life. Jesus was full of the Holy Spirit. Colossians 2:9 Jesus had the anointing when He was here on earth. Jesus is our example of what our life can be when we have the anointing. Hebrews 12:2 Jesus knew His purpose. Luke 2:49 Jesus
