Hey I got a gift. Someone travelled and bought me a dress, kind of sha. Its really cool and i’ll take some cool pics and put it up soon, the simplest things make me happy. Of course its always easier when I am already content in God, then I am happy whether I have the things or not.

Well, I want to take a trip down memory lane:

I have this habit of thinking in my head, a lot of melancholies have it. Melancholies are like gifted people and other stuff. click here to know.  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_temperaments. It will teach you all you need to know.

My pastor keeps correcting me that there is nothing such as melancholy, that you can be anything you need to be for God. I believe it, because I am no longer all melancholy, I have got a hang of some weakeness for e.g, for the moodiness, I just stay thank you God a lot and stay the need to complain and gripe about everything that everyone else is doing wrong.

So on this day, I was not acting much like a new creation, I was pretty irritated, and was like “Let’s go the room, I am hungry” It was remaining to stamp my foot on the ground just so that I can get my own way.

My sis, on the other hand is the opposite of me, she was like, “No I want to say hi to my friends

Her constant desire to say hi to friends irritates the hell out of me, I don’t the social thingy except it is to achieve a purpose, then I put on my game face and a congenial look and get to it.

Well on this particular day, some nigress annoyed the heck out of me and I was ready to start mouthing off, I was prepared to turn into a howling black american lady till I got what I wanted.

I always say, I don’t do bulls**t.

It is a euphemism for, “I am about to beat you at the game of being fleshy, let’s see who can do fleshly best” and I daresay that I can beat anyone hands down at that game cos I have got the guts and the vocabulary for it but not the muscle in case a fight breaks out. But hey that is the reason why I can run 400 meters and not get tired. I used to run 800 meters in secondary school. Too bad I never competed, my mom never let us stay for the extra curricular activities at school, it was such a pain!

What is the long and short of this post? I want to be able to keep my flesh under and to walk in the Spirit, that is awesome benefits attached to walking in the Spirit, if it is just the crazy communication with the Holy Ghost, it is more than enough. Holy Spirit, I want that communion, help me O God!

That’s that! Imma continue!

Glory…

Man starts out as this, in fact looks like this until he meets Christ

The old man so doesn’t look good

caterpillars

The new man in Christ…

Who can describe him?

Who can know him completely?

One thing is for sure

He is dominated by the spiritual not the senses

The senses cannot please God

The new man thinks kingdom, the old man thinks world system

 

…was on twitter this morning and I noticed this:

 

Abide a while in the first 3 chapters of Ephesians until you are lifted out of the senses into the realm of the new man in Christ” – E W Kenyon

I am still learning everyday about living in the realm of the new man in Christ instead of in the senses. It is not as easy as it looks but right there, in that spot where I stop operating by my senses but in the realm of the new man in Christ, that is where the victory lies.

The old man ends up as the new man

with a new man, with Christ put on

Marvelous Metamorphosis

 

It is only as one renews one’s mind daily that transformation occurs. In order to renew my mind daily, I choose:

I choose to renew my mind

So my assignment for this week is:

To read the three chapters of Ephesians everyday!

#Gi13 – the aftermath

I would like to say that #Gi13 Great Impact 2013

has come and gone

but this is just the beginning, the impact has just started.

Right now, I am so high but I know that the low times may come

But when they come, I am armed already…

With all the armour of God -with Christ

I know the times of pressure will come when I may doubt

But i have armed with the word of God

I am confident that His love surrounds me and is much more tangible

than this big bad world and all of satan and his cohorts

And even though I may forget sometimes who I am

I know that the Holy Spirit is around to remind me of the truth

And even when the crowd comes around me with their questions and

their arrow headed doubts

I know that what God has said and what I believe carries more weight

than 200,000 people shouting a lie that they believe.

This is post #Gi13

This is the time the real battle begins

The battle to stand your ground that what Jesus has said is true

That you’re rich and whole and that you have a purpose and a destiny

And that God is with you and that the Spirit of God is leading me.

That every day is a chance to express the glory of God inside of you.

And when the pressure comes to settle for what’s not you?

The Picture of me in You will be strong enough to keep me on course

and leave you as the truth teller and every other man a liar.

This is the story of how impact is made

One thing I came away from #Gi13 with that will certainly affect my words

thoughts and actions is “Seek first the kingdom and His righteousness”

Cross section of the meeting: Brethren were being edified!

In 6 days time…

Teenagers are the bomb!

They have so much passion, it is contagious

This passion is necessary to accomplish vision

If you lose your passion, how will you ever accomplish your vision and dreams

If  your visions and dreams aren’t big, how will they ever affect someone other  than you?

Passion is necessary, you can get passion from the word

or from the Holy Ghost?

What am I asking God for?

I am asking for passion, the passion necessary to achieve my dreams

and to dream bigger than I have ever dreamed before

God will do His part

He will exceed those dreams

So this year at camp meeting

Imma be dreaming big!!!

 

8 days to go… #Gi13

I’m building momentum as the days get closer

GOD

The presence of the Father

It is going to be so awesome

I’m bidding my time

It is gonna be power packed no doubt

The much waited Gi13

I can imagine how I would be after camp

Definitely I would make more iMpact

Cos I would be conformed to the image of Christ

So much more

The word i’ll hear

The ministrations, they will make me

I am already seeking the face of God everyday

I have emptied myself of all that I know

So I can receive everything there that day

The anticipation is crazy 

The world is waiting!

So I am eager to express all that is God

and by it shine the light of God

(Its the year of the Spirit)

And I am expectant!

What does God want?

Today I listened to Micah Stampley – ‘Heaven on Earth’

Two things stayed with me:

He said, “to be seated in heavenly places”, that it is like heaven on earth

To be walking in His favour and His graces, seems like heaven, heaven on earth

I have experienced this and this is my prayer to God everyday, that I experience this to a greater degree everyday.

One of my counsellors said, she wanted to teach me to focus that I was to always respond like the daughter of a king no matter how my outward environment was looking that I wasn’t to forget who I was at any point in time. No matter what anyone was saying about me or to me, I was to always remember and respond like the daughter of a king.

So this is what I am practicing right now

Now that I have counselors, I don’t feel so alone anymore. Or like a target anymore

I thank God for the mid wives He has sent my way.
