It is Christmas! Give God Thanks

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the greatness of his government and peace there will be no end. He will reign on David’s throne and over his kingdom, establishing and upholding it with justice and righteousness from that time on and forever. The zeal of the Lord Almighty will accomplish this. Isaiah Chapter 9 verses 6 to 7.

What a time of the year to give God quality thanks. It is Christmas, a time when Christians celebrate the birth of the Lord Jesus Christ Who gave himself for the salvation of humanity. What a better time to thank God than now, for sacrificing His only Son so that you and I can be saved and delivered from all forms of satanic shackles.

God is great, awesome, glorious, faithful, loving, forgiving and very generous. Beloved, God is worthy to be praised and He deserves your thanks because on a daily basis, He loads you with benefits. Give Him thanks! Give Him thanks!! Give Him thanks!!! Besides, God loves you and kept you till now for reasons beyond your immediate comprehension. That alone should stir your heart with great thanks to God who is still watching over you to give you an expected end. 

Can you imagine!   You enjoy so much goodness from God on every day of each year.

Additionally, the Bible records that the steps of the righteous are ordered by God. Give thanks to God who daily orders your steps into His goodness and abundance for your life.

God Always Creates Opportunities for His Own


Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

It is strange how you keep looking for the golden moment and it appears difficult to find. But somehow, out of blues and that is the beautiful thing about the Holy Spirit; He always prepares that golden moment ahead of time and also prepares you ahead of time for that golden moment and at the appropriate time, God by His Holy Spirit, the ever wonderful Spirit shows you the golden moment; ushers you into it and you emerge significant.


God creates room and opportunities for His people by blessing them with skills, talents, expertise which if well deployed move a person up in God’s divine purposes and timing. Joseph was blessed with the gift of dreaming (seeing possibilities through possibility thinking). As Joseph worked this gift beginning with his Jerusalem, his family, God moved him to where the gift could be deployed to bless a larger segment of humanity beyond Joseph’s immediate Canaan. God created room for Joseph to become prime minister in Egypt. How? By creating a situation that made it impossible for the wise men of Egypt to interpret Pharaoh’s twin dreams dreamt in a single night. The inability of the wise men of Egypt to interpret the dreams created room for Joseph to emerge out of the woods, the backside of the desert, to be specific, prison in a foreign land. Joseph, a young man unjustly sentenced indefinitely to prison in a land where he had no rights was suddenly brought out of prison to stand before Pharaoh to solve a problem which none of the wise men of Egypt could solve. Joseph was able to interpret the dreams. He also proffered solutions to the challenges posed by the interpretation of the dreams. Hitherto troubled Pharaoh was relieved, members of his court were impressed and Joseph became prime minister. Please read Psalm 105 verses 16 to 22, Genesis Chapter 41.

Celebrate Humble Beginnings

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

Always celebrate the day of small beginnings because the latter end of any humble beginning always supersedes the beginning and is always great. Please read Zechariah Chapter 4 verse 10, Job Chapters 8 verse 7 and 42 verse 12. Look beyond your present situation to where God is taking you, which He prepared for you from the foundation of the world. Look to that glorious future in Christ Jesus purchased by the precious and priceless blood of Jesus Christ. Take your eyes away from the seemingly possible to the seemingly impossible which can be made possible by God with Whom there are no impossibilities. Please read Mark Chapter 10 verse 27, Luke Chapter 1 verse 37, Matthew Chapter 19 verse 26, Jeremiah Chapter 32 verses 27, 17 to 19 and Genesis Chapter 18 verse 14 for great insight and Holy Spirit inspired understanding to stir up your faith.

Therefore, look away from what appears to be the small insignificant resources presently at your disposal to the greatly possible glorious future God has for you in Christ Jesus. See possibilities, expansion, promotion, and increase, abundance, more than enough because God is the God of overflowing, limitless abundant resources and He can do everything. He always makes a way where there appears to be no way. Please read Isaiah Chapter 43 verses 15 to 19.
The widow of Zarephath had what she referred to as only a handful of flour in a bin, and a little oil in a jar. As if that was not enough despiteful description of God’s blessings in her life, she also concluded that what she had would be their last meal which explained why she was gathering only a couple of sticks; just enough to prepare the last meal and eat before dying of hunger as there would be no other meal to eat again. Eat the only available meal, expire and so be it!

Awesome God


Written Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

Breathtaking views
Ocean blue, sky blue
Undulating landscapes
Greens, yellow, purple, red
The beauty of His creation

The essence of His glory
As I ponder on His love
Especially His patience with me
Forgiving and purging my sins
Cleansing me with His blood

To daily exercise dominion
Rule over the earth
Not by might nor by power
But by His Spirit
In me through the complete work of Christ
I am one of His wonders

The God Who always does wonders
For me, for you
For His Church, for His creation
Rescuing me, you from harm’s way
Give Him glory, honor and praise.

Your Joy Has Come


Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

Weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning.

What you see and hear on a daily basis is capable of forming strongholds in a person’s life. Please see Proverbs Chapter 4 verses 20 to 27. If what you see and hear everyday are centered on suffering and poverty as a way of life that is associated with holy living, then chances are you will overtime accept suffering and poverty as a way of life. Beloved, do not accept suffering as a way of life. It is not the will of God for your life. The will of God for your life is for you to enjoy life to the full in Christ Jesus. Suffering is not, has never been and will never be a sign or symbol of righteousness. God’s righteousness is never reflected through poverty. God’s righteousness is reflected in holy living according to the word of God. If it was poverty, God would never have given His own the power to get wealth as recorded in Deuteronomy Chapter 8 verse 18.

Therefore, drop the consciousness of lack, insufficiency, borrowing and begging. It is not the will of God for you. It also does not glorify God. It is not the will of God that you beg bread. Please read Psalm 37 verse 25. His will is that you are amply supplied bread, more than enough to share with people as stated in Leviticus Chapter 26 verses 9 to 10, Deuteronomy Chapters 8 verses 6 to 18, 15 verse 6 and 28 verses 10 to 13.

Significantly, such a consciousness will limit you from daring to make wealth and keep you in the chains of poverty. What you urgently require is a mental paradigm shift from lack, insufficiency, borrowing and begging to sufficiency, overflowing abundance, giving and generosity. Therefore, discard and do away with at the speed of thought every lie from the pit of hell that God is the one activating poverty in your life to teach you some lessons. It is a satanic stronghold that should be destroyed immediately in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.

You are a Success Story


Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha
You are not a failure
You are not a loser
You are not down and out
You did not even fall



You only took on a new course
Walked in a new direction
A direction that had always been there
Latent, with occasional walks

Not long enough to explore the full
And optimal dimensions of this course
Short walks, actually forays
That could have proceeded
To real life long journeys on this course

He Deserves Your Thanks


 Give thanks to the Lord and proclaim his greatness.

    Let the whole world know what he has done.
Sing to him; yes, sing his praises.

    Tell everyone about his wonderful deeds.
Exult in his holy name;
    rejoice, you who worship the Lord.
Search for the Lord and for his strength;
    continually seek him.

Remember the wonders he has performed,
    his miracles, and the rulings he has given,

you children of his servant Abraham,
    you descendants of Jacob, his chosen ones.
He is the Lord our God.
    His justice is seen throughout the land.
He always stands by his covenant—

    the commitment he made to a thousand generations.

This is the covenant he made with Abraham
    and the oath he swore to Isaac.
10 He confirmed it to Jacob as a decree,
    and to the people of Israel as a never-ending covenant:
11 “I will give you the land of Canaan
    as your special possession.”
12 He said this when they were few in number,
    a tiny group of strangers in Canaan.

13 They wandered from nation to nation,

    from one kingdom to another.
14 Yet he did not let anyone oppress them.
    He warned kings on their behalf:
15 “Do not touch my chosen people,
    and do not hurt my prophets.”
16 He called for a famine on the land of Canaan,
    cutting off its food supply.

17 Then he sent someone to Egypt ahead of them—

    Joseph, who was sold as a slave.
18 They bruised his feet with fetters
    and placed his neck in an iron collar.
19 Until the time came to fulfill his dreams,[a]
    the Lord tested Joseph’s character.
20 Then Pharaoh sent for him and set him free;
    the ruler of the nation opened his prison door.

Designed to Succeed - Be You


Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha
  
The angel told me to give Zerubbabel this message from the LORD: "You will succeed, not by military might or by your own strength, but by my spirit. Zechariah Chapter 4 verse 6 Good News Translation.

God has never failed and will never fail. Great food for thought! May be, may be not depending on the side of the divide you are in. But the truth irrespective of whatever divide you are in is that God does not fail and will never fail. That significantly says a lot about you. Why and how? You are created in the image of God, the Author of success meaning that even before you were born, God had designed and capacitated you for success. There is therefore absolutely no reason why you should not succeed. Success is in your DNA. IT IS YOUR BIRTHRIGHT and INHERITANCE which cannot be stolen no matter how hard the enemy tries. You are the only one who can stop YOU FROM SUCCEEDING.

You can become national and global assets to kings and nations if you know who exactly you are and why God put you on planet earth. David knew the you in him which explains why he could run after the wild beast that came preying on the family flock he kept. It was also this wonderful knowledge about who he was that empowered David, a mere youth to challenge; not only an experienced warrior but a giant who had successfully immobilized the entire army of Israel for forty days. David knew you, the you in him; he successfully brought Goliath down and the army of the Philistine that had held sway because of Goliath was overrun by the army of Israel. Please read 1st Samuel Chapter 17 for details and Holy Spirit inspired insight.

Mordecai knew the you in him and refused to literally worship Haman. Though Haman resorted to making the King agree to his decree to annihilate the Jews, Mordecai was not intimidated. He took on Haman in prayers and Haman and his household were destroyed.

Therefore, let loose the floodgates of success latent in you by being you. You never belonged by being them. You belonged by being you because they wanted to be like you. They needed the refreshing grace, vigor and life you brought to every situation. Why then do you want to be like them; to fit into their lifeless mold that is void of energy and power? It is the life and vigor you bring; the refreshing presence of God that makes the difference and which is what makes you relevant, significant and needed. Therefore, continue to be YOU and innovate on YOU rather than be a lifeless copy, an unsigned copy, an imitation of someone else. YOU are YOU and it is the YOU in YOU that will take you to the heights God designed for you from the foundation of the world. Therefore, do not stop being YOU.

Beautiful Pearls

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

Pearls of wisdom, beauty and love
Stringed together lovingly
Designed to beautify, glorify and honor
Pearls of knowledge, understanding and depth
Pearls of favor, wealth and dignity
Mined from the depths of the WORD
Pearls, a girl’s desire and love
Representing purity, purity of soul
Of thoughts, imagination and desires
Pearls, befitting yet revealing
Colors, light, glow, ambience, iridescence
My pearls, beauty for ashes







 

Riches untold, hidden in secret places
Treasures in the midst of terrifying darkness
Hidden deep in the sands and the seas
With the precious things of the heavens and the earth
The encompassing and enriching but very satisfying favor of God
They are pearls of wisdom and love
