TAKE ACTION

Text: Matthew 7:7.

Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:

A number of times, you complain over what you should take action on. The truth is, complaints will never get the work done, it can only worsen the situation.

The story was told about Zelophehad  who had five daughters and no son. Just like what is practised in many cultures, the female child has no inheritance in Isreal, hence, these five daughters had no possession allotted to them from their father's relatives.

Instead of sulking and complaining under their breath, these bold daughters of Zelophehad took action -they went to Moses and the elders of Isreal and say,  “Our father died in the wilderness, but he wasn’t with the company of those who gathered against the LORD along with the company of Korah. He died in his own sin, and he had no sons.
Why are you going to eliminate the name of our father from his family, just because he had no son? Give us a possession from among our father’s relatives.” Numbers 27:3-4.

Moses took their matter up to God and the LORD told Moses,
“The daughters of Zelophehad are telling the truth. You are certainly to give to them a possession for an inheritance among their father’s relatives. You are to pass on the inheritance of their father to them. Numbers 27:7.

Did you know that because these ladies took action in the right direction, God changed the narrative for the whole Isrealites because of them.

God told Moses to tell the Israelis that when a man dies without a son, you are to pass his inheritance to his daughter.Numbers 27:8.

Somethings will not change when you sit still and do nothing. Imagine, The all-knowing God wants you to ask before you can receive. If you said He knows your mind and thoughts and refused to ask, then you will not receive.

Somethings will not come by mere wishing or complaining, they will come to you because you chose to take action in the direction of what you are looking for. No inheritance will jump into the laps of Zelophehad's daughters if they refused to ask for it.

You can take action on that project today and see God move on your behalf.

 *BIBLE READING* 

Numbers 27:1-11.

 *PRAYER FOCUS* 

1. Father God, I receive the grace to take action in the right at the right time in Jesus name.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

HIS VOICE- 2

Text : John 10:3. To him the porter opens; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out. We established yesterday that one thing you can't joke with as a true follower of Christ is *His Voice.* You must recognise and hearken to (obey) His voice. It is in doing this that your safety is assured.  Today, we want to see another responsibility of the Shepherd over His sheep.  To him the porter opens; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calls his own sheep by name, *and leads them out.* John 10:3.  He called you, that He might lead you. It is not enough for you to hear or recognise His Voice, you must allow Him to lead you as well.  Romans 8:14 says *For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.*   The Spirit leading you determines the family you belong to. Basically,  there are only two families in this world - the family of God, and the family of satan. In other words, we can say the Kingdom...
