HARD FACTS OF LIFE 

PART 1

James 1:2-4




There is a wisdom that only adversity can impact to you. It will never come when everything is fine and going well.


The Lord asked me if what I want is a large following or a changed people. 


Truth may not give you a large following and many admirers but it will produce a changed people. 


So chose what you want, a large following and admirers or a changed people?  


Every placement in life and destiny has a battle that must be fought and won before one can be established in it. 


A mentor's place in your life can be lost if the purpose for which you seek his or her MENTORSHIP is no longer existing. 


A MENTOR is not a mentor when you need someone to see things the way you see it. 


A MENTOR is a mentor for all times whether when your views on issues are the same or divergent. 


God has a way of using the fire of trials , situations and circumstances to reveal what is in our heart to us first and secondly what is in the heart of men that surrounds us, 2Corinthians 1;8-9.


Sometimes we are too busy looking for large gatherings (followers and mentees) when what God actually wants to do is reveal the heart of men that surrounds us to us. 


There is a blessing in every trial if you have the patience to look for it and not be overwhelmed by the sorrow of the trial, Colossians 1:9-11


God is a revealer of secrets and the intents of the heart of men, John 17:10


Just the same way men tried to use Jesus to achieve their goals or meet their needs they will try to use you as well. 


You must be prepared for it, because a servant is not better than his master, John 13:16, 5:20.


People will come around you who don't want to be mentored, what they want really is endorsement and recommendation. 


Some only want to use you as a ladder to scale through a certain phase of their lives, may be financial hardship, broken relationship e.t.c, John 6:24-26.


How you will know is that the fortitude to continue that mentorship is lost once that purpose is achieved or no longer there.


Once they are in a place of comfort, they forget you fast, Deuteronomy 8:13-17. Some want someone to offer them their shoulders to lean on and ears to talk to. 


Some need you to get that job that promotion, they only share their problems with you not their joys. 


No matter how anointed you are don't fall into that deception that people don't want to use you and the anointing you carry to achieve and serve their own purposes, Phillipians 2:21, 1Corinthians 16:12


There is a blessing in every disappointment, you only need to look a little bit closely to find it. 


PRAYER: FATHER OPEN MY EYES TO SEE BLESSINGS IN MY ADVERSITY AND HELP ME TO LEARN THE LESSONS IN IT IN JESUS NAME. 


PEACE.


SALVATION PRAYER


Anything short of you being born again and living a life of holiness and purity hurt Jesus so much. But you can make things right here and now by saying this simple prayer and mean it genuinely from your heart:


 Lord Jesus I come to you today. I acknowledge that I am a sinner and I cannot help myself. I repent of all my sins and I forsake them. Jesus, I invite you into my life, be my Lord, be my Saviour. 


Wash me by your precious blood, forgive my sins and write my name in the book of life. From this day, I promise to follow you all the rest of my life. Help me Lord, in Jesus name, Amen. Congratulations you are now born again!


PEACE

LESSONS FROM THE SHIPWRECK  Acts 27&28 Sometimes God brings about deliverance painfully slow. He seems to take all His time. It is because what God wants you to get out of that situation is far more than just being delivered.  Sometimes what you come out with is not just the testimony of deliverance or promotion, an anointing comes upon you on the other side of it.  It is not just an affliction, it is also your test. So instead of God bringing you out at once, He makes you walk through the length and breath of the situation and then brings you out on the other side. If you can get and sustain God's perspective on any situation the problem is 50% solved.  You can't enter the house of a strong man and spoil his goods without first binding the strong man, Mark 3;27 You are a strong man and satan cannot spoil your goods without first binding you and his first weapon for binding people is fear.  He uses fear to paralyze people. It is his chiefest weapon, Hebrews 2:15 If God can

THEY THAT BE PLANTED Psalm 92:13&14 Sometimes in life we hurry and move from place to place only to find out we have never really left one spot.  But atimes we remain in one physical location for long, only to find out that we have reached the world even from that one spot.  The Bible talks about being planted in one spot and from that spot the shadow of your branches will spread and cover the hills and mountains and you will spread your boughs and root to the seas and rivers, Psalm 80:8-11. The blessings of God are not place dependent they are His will dependent.  People keep making that mistake over and over again and till tomorrow they will keep making it but you can exempt yourself from that statistics. You cam be in one spot and kings of the earth will come and meet you in that one spot and bring you out, that is the description of a man God is working it.  People will seek out the grace from wherever it is hiding whether in the wilderness, desert or bush.  They remain at thei

GAINING MASTERY OVER CHANGES IN TIMES AND SEASONS Genesis 8:22 Spiritual seasons comes to an end as well as Natural seasons. One thing you must learn early in your walk with God is flexibility. Flexibility and alignment goes hand in hand. This is why...... God is dynamic (John 3:8), life is dynamic and we should also be dynamic.  Seasons change but a Christian that will live above the changing times and seasons is the one that has the flexibility to be evolving above the demands of the times and seasons.  God doesn't change but He moves and his strategies and methods change from time to time to match the changes in times and seasons.  That you are moving doesn't mean you are changing. Change and movement are two different things entirely.  In the minds of many it means the same thing especially where God is concerned.  Sometimes the changes in times and seasons are caused by demonic orchestrations and marshalled as attack against our spiritual life, Exodus 5:7 The victory lies
