PROSEUCHE /PRAYER



Jonah mode activated* 
When the Holy Spirit prompted me to address this topic, I hesitated, "Me?" 
Yet, I've come to realize that often the most effective teachers are those who have faced and conquered similar struggles. 
Throughout this series, I'll also offer advice on staying consistent within this context.

Prayer embodies diverse interpretations depending on individual convictions. It can serve as a channel for communication with God, fostering a connection with the spirit of God and energizing our spirits.
Some view prayer solely as a means of making requests, often treating it like a speed dial for emergencies. We've all been this person
"Hey Jesus it's me again..."
But what is the significance of prayer to you? 

The value of prayer transcends the mere fulfillment of requests; it resides in the profound transformation it brings to our spirits.

Luke 18:1 "And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;"
This means that if you do not pray you faint, the word faint here means give up, become weary.
Let's look at it this way, if you were to embark on a hunger strike, the outcome would likely entail a depletion of energy and weight loss, potentially leading to various symptoms like dizziness.

Same principle, man is a spirit that has a soul living in a body, so what happens when you do not feed your spirit? Retarded growth, compromised immune system... 1+1=2
 It doesn't make sense that a 30-year-old should remain an infant. I know you may have just received the gift of salvation congratulations however you can grow. there's so little God can do with you until you attain maturity.

‭‭Heb 5:NLT‬‬ "[13] For someone who lives on milk is still an infant and doesn’t know how to do what is right. [14] Solid food is for those who are mature, who through training have the skill to recognize the difference between right and wrong."

‭‭Jude 1:20 "But you, beloved, build yourselves up on [the foundation of] your most holy faith [continually progress, rise like an edifice higher and higher], pray in the Holy Spirit"

Continually progress! You see that by the spirit as you pray in tongues you are making progress, rising like an edifice higher and higher. But here's the best part he does not put a limit on how high you can rise, that is entirely your choice but remember,
"that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;"

Beyond the answers we receive prayer purifies your soul, it brings out a glow in your spirit. It strengthens your faith and lubricates your walk with the Holy Ghost.
But there's more...

See you next week💃
Cheers to painting better colors on Life's Canvas.
I love you🎨❤️

And when you feel discouraged, CHAZAQ.

Cliche! But hear me...  "I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all."Eccl 9:11(KJV)  After a recent private discussion, I realized that I used to perceive resilient individuals as unbreakable, assuming they never experienced discouragement.  Hear me, the battle is not to the strong. Sometimes, our life is like a desert...we find ourselves caught between two dunes, with no provision in sight, with a problem that threatens to burn us unless we can find shade.  Occasionally, we observe the world's offerings and question, "Lord, why do I have to endure all of this? Why does the waiting seem so prolonged? You're not solitary; individuals you consider "strong" have navigated through similar phases or are currently doing so. The Bible is replete with...

BUT...

But...  ‭‭Ecclesiastes 10:1 NLT‬ "As dead flies cause even a bottle of perfume to stink, so a little foolishness spoils great wisdom and honor." Some time ago, I watched a video about what happens when flies land on your food. It left me feeling irritated, and I couldn't bring myself to watch until the end. As little as a fly is and as insignificant as it may seem, it can cause an expensive and exquisite bottle of perfume to stink thus rendering it useless. Similarly the presence of a but. In today's episode the but is CHARACTER. You see many people are good-looking, intelligent, gifted, talented, the list goes on "but" bankrupt of character.  These qualities and abilities are amazing however many people have had all of these and still failed, why? Bankruptcy of character! In the words of Pastor Prince" The hallmark of greatness is humility and simplicity"   Let's learn from the lives of these people, In the book of Esther, the Bib...

/Ku shin Uma/ Death or Life

Certainly, it's a common understanding that manufacturers assign predetermined expiration dates to the products we use, often with a safety margin. For example, if your lotion is set to expire in 2025, the expiration date printed on the lotion bottle typically falls a year or two prior to that date. Many individuals go about their lives as if they possess advanced knowledge of their precise expiration date or as if they've been guaranteed a specific number of years on this planet.  Human beings consist of a spirit, possess a soul, and inhabit a physical body. Here's some news, both positive and negative. Our time on Earth is short, even if we were granted a millennium, it would still be brief compared to eternity. Death is just a transition, as there is existence beyond death, regardless of our beliefs. /Ku shin Uma/ translates as Death or Life. How you live here on earth determines where you spend eternity. Here's the good news,  John 5:24 " Verily, ve...
