And the fans waited in anticipation….


THOUGHT OF THE DAY.

What a world cup this has been! There have been surprises at every corner and the team you thought

had a chance is probably gone home. Anyway, I was watching the France vs Belgium game the other

day and I remember the feeling and emotion I had. What a game it was, the suspense, the action, the

spectacle.

But then I saw something that triggered a thought. I saw something to this effect;

I saw fans standing in anticipation. In the frame I saw, there was no one sitting. The expectancy from

both sides was palpable.

They were waiting for a goal.

This is a great picture of how we should be waiting on the Lord. Your expectancy as you wait should

be palpable.

 

No one goes to watch a game like this, feeling meh;

 

 

Fans are energetic, excited, and expectant, something like this;

 

I learned a lesson seeing those fans. There is a way to wait upon the Lord. Having an attitude of

whatever happens, happens is not the way we wait. We should be waiting with an expectancy and

excitement that YAH will come through, that He is answering our prayers because He is!

 

“In the morning, Lord, You hear my voice; in the morning I lay my request before You and wait

expectantly.” 

Psalm 5:3

 

Have a great weekend friends…..

What is fear really after???


I was having my quiet time this morning when I read this:

He doesn’t want your money. He doesn’t want your diamonds. He won’t go after your car. He wants something far more precious. He wants your peace of mind – your joy.

His name?

Fear.

His task is to take your courage and leave you timid and trembling. His modus operandi is to manipulate you with the mysterious, taunt you with the unknown. Fear of death, fear of failure, fear of God, fear of tomorrow – his arsenal is vast. His goal? To create cowardly, joyless souls.

I thought about what was being said. Fear does not aim  for the material things. Fear knows exactly what he needs to attack in your life. Fear knows what is really important, do we?
We have placed so much value on earthly possessions but there is something much more precious than that, your peace of mind. 2 Timothy 1:7 says, For God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power, love and a sound mind! The enemy wants our peace of mind. He wants us to panic and fret. He wants us to lose it. Fear cripples us and that is what he wants…..
Having peace and joy cannot be compared to any earthly possession. We need to keep our peace of mind.
