You've Got Something

Genesis  1:1-19

God spoke the world into existence out of nothing.

Nothing is something when God is in it.

It would seem God made creation out of nothing.

At some point God had nothing valuable to work with except darkness and disorder to achieve His intended outcome.

Genesis 1:2

God called forth creation out of Himself.

God achieved what He had hoped to achieve.

Genesis 1:31

God achieved His aim

God achieved His purposes.

God is an achiever.

Humanity was originally created in God's image and likeness through Adam, which Adam lost and Jesus restored.

You are created to achieve your intended target- your dreams, hope, vision, imagination.

You are created to achieve your aim.

You are created to achieve your purposes.

You are an achiever.

Genesis 1:26-28

It may seem like you have nothing today but that is a good place to start from.

It may seem like your life is full of disorder today but disorder can be converted to order with God.

If you have God you have it all.

Make sure God is a present reality in your life, make sure you have God on your side.

If you have God you have something and you have someone.

If you've got God:

You have the Holy Spirit.

John 14:26

You have salvation

Romans 10:9,10

You have the promises of God

2 Peter 1:4

You have the mind of Christ

1 Corinthians 2:16

You have a new identity

1 Corinthians 1:30

You are a joint heir with Christ

Romans 8:17

You are well positioned

Ephesians 2:6

You are entitled to angelic help.

Hebrews 1:14

With what you've got in God you can build your life.

Build on Christ, the Rock!

Matthew 7:24-29

Our lives can be likened to a building, our choices and decisions are the building blocks.

The wise build on a sure foundation, on the Rock. Jesus is the rock and sure foundation.

God's will for you is an orderly and peaceful life.

God is not a God of confusion but of peace.

1 Corinthians 14:33

God wants us to live orderly lives.

1 Corinthians 14:40

God wants us to live progressive lives.

Proverbs 4:18

In Christ Jesus we have a lot to build with, we have something to work with, and our life should be meaningful- full of goals, targets, and purposes that glorify God.

Build progressively, build step by step, choice by choice, decision by decision, prayer by prayer, word by word, one instruction after another, with wisdom.

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...

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...
