Waiting on Boaz?

Good morning everyone, so I've been tweeting randomly today and i just thought i'd share few things with you all.....


Growing up, I misunderstood the whole concept of Boaz's job in the bible to be honest. Only recently I understood. For some of us "waiting for our Boaz?" I'm sorry but he is not coming. You want to know why? Because Boaz was for Ruth. No one else's. As followers of Christ, our eyes should only be focused on christ but at the same time God said "Ask and Ye shall Receive". so my point here is that if you are asking God to give you, your own man? that is exactly what you should do.. YOUR OWN MAN not Ruth's other half Boaz... Pray for your own person. His name could be Mathew for all you know and you're here screaming "God bring my Boaz" . Please do not misquote my post for today as bitter or shallow, this is my own personal opinion and i am sharing my own views on this particular topic. God can bring your own man and he can have some of us Boaz's traits but it still won't be Boaz. Even if you get Boaz what makes you think he would treat you the same way he treated Ruth? We are all fearfully and wonderfully made differently by God almighty. The moral of this short post is to not WATCH other's people time to work with your timing. Our God is the author of time, he will work things out in his own time, which is always at the perfect time. "Be still and know that he is God" continue to rest in christ and watch him bring you the right bone.. 

Many Blessings

Falling On His Grace


Lord lord why have your forsaken me?
For too long I've battle in my mind, your voice and mine, and the devil knew so he started lurking around and I let him because you weren't there to buck with me like you said you would.

Remember you said be still and you'll show them why you God almighty
But I can't see your footprint with mine anymore. There's just one
I'm running out of things to say, YOU said you'd always be there but it seems like whatever I say will never change what the truth is. You love me before I knew it.

I'm finding it hard to believe you could love a sinner like me but you keep telling me.....I'm the only one in way
See.... It's your voice VS mine again.

Lord remove these thoughts from my heart.
I'm running out of things to say, I've got no excuse I'm the only one in my way.
Everytime I fall on my face, you keep allowing me to fall on your grace.
Why can't I trust you, why can't I believe that'll you help me?

Clock is ticking, tick tick tock
What to do what to do?
So i stay up all night, read my Romans And

Like Romans told me, God is using my past to build my home, my experience to build me up and strengthen me.
So I dropped the blame, the insecurities because i am fearfully and wonderfully made.

Infact ama Harlem shake the devil off... Look at me now God is my only Vibe, through my lifestyle you can tell.
I know my future is brighter and bigger than me and I don't mean in height or weight but in Christ alone.

What does your fruit say about you ?


What does your fruit say about you ? Mathew 12:33-34
Hey guys, it's been a really long time, but i thank God i am back to share more of the Good News with you all... Today's topic is ------> WHAT DOES YOUR FRUIT SAY ABOUT YOU?<--------------
We all know when a seed is planted, the farmer waters it in order for it to grow GOOD FRUITS!! See that? The farmers intention is to ensure what he is about sow, comes out with good fruits. In his mind he knows how he wants his seed to come out, which is good of-course because he wants to gain from all his hard work, this is the same with us followers of Christ or people in general. "A tree is identified by it's fruit", so in this case, whatever we sow in our hearts will determine what kind of fruit we'll produce. In today's society we tend to look at people's gifts instead of their fruits, fruits meaning their characters and qualities. Their fruits will tell you more than their gifts will. It does not matter if they are a prophet of God, a pastor, if their fruits is not complimenting or buttressing their gifts then they/ you need to CHECK YOURSELF. 
Too often people decide in their heart that they'll for instance: stop gossiping about others and speak better of them. And they do try but because they try to change their words without changing their thoughts nothing changes. "For out of the fullness of the heart the mouth speaks - via Jesus.  Everything begins with our thoughts or a thought so if we allow negative thoughts to dwell in our minds, this will produce bad fruits. Hence the reason why we have to guide our heart at all cost. Galatians 5: 22-23 tells us all about the good fruits, we all need these fruits in order to really be in Christ, there's no point deceiving ourselves, God loves me, so much he'll keep forgiving me. LISTEN! God cannot be mocked and he is the God of principle.
 God shows anger towards the people that no better and do not do it simply because they know we all the grace of God in our lives. we are recognised by our fruits, if you gossip a lot about other people for whatever invalid reason you may have, people will see you as a bitter person and they may also want to distance themselves from you. PRODUCE good fruits, but training your mind and spirit, continue to work with God. we all fall short but that is no excuse for us to keep going around in circles,don't change your fruits because your friends gets away with all her bad fruits, we are all different. 
It is vital to sow the right seed in order for us to make the right decisions especially in the middle of our tribulations and confusions. As humans when things are stressful we naturally like to take the path of least resistance, but those are the very moments we need to make tougher decisions because to REAP the right fruits in life? We have to SOW the right seeds even when we don't feel like it.
it's our responsibility, not to allow people to speak into our lives because they did not pay the price. Jesus did. Plant good seed in your heart by remembering that God is in love with us and his forever faithful. The more good seed we plant, the more good fruit we produce. 
Sow a Good Fruit, Nurture it and Reap  a  Good Fruit - GOA
Shalom!!!

There is no shame In being a Christian 1 peter: 4


There is no shame In being a Christian 1 peter: 4


As Christians we all know that many are called but few are chosen, let's praise and thank God for the privilege of being called by his name. God the father knew you and chose you a very long time ago (Jeremiah 1:5). His spirit is what makes us holy. It's through his grace and mercy that we are born again. We now have great expectation and we have a priceless inheritance that is kept for us in heaven (1peter 1:4).


When we suffer as Christians because of what the lord has called us to do, let's rejoice in Christ because it shows that the persecution is a mark of God's approval of our work.. take John and peter for example, they were persecuted but they never stopped doing lord's work because they knew that their reward was in heaven and not on earth. Sometimes we hold unto the worldly things too much and we do not see ourselves the way God sees us. Christ himself was rejected by his own people while he was on earth but because he knew he was chosen by God for great honour, he carried on the good work and also because he loved us.

People see working for Christ as a job that will bring them much persecution yes this might be the case but also God blesses our handworks, he gives us joy. I don't know about you but I’m loving the persecution and the joy. Let's be glad because Christ chose us, he pointed and looked at you said “I WANT HER, HIM, THEM”. It's a blessing and a great joy to be picked out from so many people by God. It's like taking a ride with Christ, to know what his all about and to be what his all about. Talk about unlimited blessings..


When the world tries to bring you down, remember this, once you had no identity but now your in Christ, you are a royal priesthood, an heir to the throne, God's very own possession. You are made of light once you know this and believe this, there's nothing in this world that can make you fall, in-fact God will not allow it because he is our ROCK and fortress. As you are working for Christ he will bless you down to your roots, your family.

1 peter 2:21 “For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps. As followers of Christ we should not seek out suffering or even try to avoid it, instead allow the spirit of God to continue to direct you to keep doing what God has called you to do, regardless of the suffering it might bring.

Graduate as a Christian, Every time you stand up be a threat to the devil.

God bless you all

GOA™

PRIDE


What is PRIDE?

A feeling derived from one's own achievement

Pride's Proverb
Pride goes or comes before a fall.... Proverbs 11:2 

what causes pride?
When God starts using you to save others, by showing you supernatural things and once they happen you begin to say things like “see I told you this would happen” NO hunny... God told YOU this would happen and you told the right person. We have to know the difference between humility and pride.
if you are too conceited or self-important, something will happen along the way that will make you look foolish. Pride is a SIN... it does not align with what God is about however being proud of another Christian's walk is in alignment with God's word.

As followers of Christ, this trait is not part of what God wants us to include in our personality as it will only lead to destruction. There's being proud of your achievement and then there's been conceited about it. You've got to know which is which.!
Pride can go a long way for instance: not talking to your spouse or friend because they upset you, and you refuse to be the first person to approach them or the situation. To move pride away from your heart there has to be compromise because without this we cannot all live in love (Ephesians 5:2).

Pride can and will bring you low if we think we can do everything by ourselves and along the way we could lose a lot of people that are dear to us. I use to get mad at God when he didn't do what I wanted and I’d ignore his callings, refuse to pray. THIS IS ALL PRIDE... but once I learnt about how pride can destroy me, I learnt to compromise and I asked God to forgive me and remove pride from my heart as this is not a Godly character.

Pride is the main killer of all humans mind, once you allow pride in, it'll be hard to hear God's voice, pride usually relies upon competition, and that it cannot exist without competition. It's always about you or me against another.
If we are not careful pride will prevent us from receiving from God, he sees our heart and if we begin to have faith in ourselves too much while God does something for us, this might prevent us from receiving from God. Now don't get me wrong, I’m not saying God will not bless you, he surely will but God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble.
Remember God uses US and ANYONE for his glory NOT ours... His Glory shines through us... The book of Hebrew 3:19 “when I am full of myself I am empty of God” <<<<------- That's HOW much of a sin pride is. We need to learn how to acknowledge God's work in our lives rather than how we get things done because we actually cannot do anything without God's grace

Walk in his Grace.. and Ye shall be lifted Up Through his strength NOT Yours- GOA

God bless you all... 

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!













Happy New Year to my Brothers and Sisters...... 
Congratulations, This is YOUR year...OUR year... God will do something new in your life....
walk away form the heartaches, forget the familiar sicknesses and rise up on newness... Let God be your Guide and your light... 







Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee. For, behold darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people; but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and His glory shall be seen upon thee. And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising." Isa.60: 1-3.


This is YOUR year... God will show many why your his, and why they should keep their hands and mouth of YOU... The Blood of Jesus speaks better things than that of Abel

God bless you all 
GOA
