Divine remembrance

...Divine Remembrance...

Ref. Scripture: Genesis 41:9-13

God never forgets anyone. The all-knowing God could never forget to do whatever He promises to do. God is ever alert and sensitive to the performance of anything He says He will do. But, why is it that in Scriptures, we often read the words "Remember me"? Does this not seem to suggest that God sometimes forget? Would we need to pray for remembrance if God does not forget? Here is what the Scripture says..."Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the son of her womb? yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee" Is. 49:15.

From the above, it is clear that God never forgets. We pray for divine remembrance not because God forgets, but so that He may bring us into focus. When God picks out a man from the crowd, that is divine remembrance at work. Just like you zoom your camera lens on an object, divine remembrance zooms God's attention on the remembered.

The Butler, who had forgotten about Joseph for two full years suddenly remembered Joseph. What did you think triggered that remembrance? God had remembered Joseph!!! When God remembers a man, those who have forgotten him will just suddenly remember him. Joseph was not the only prisoner, but when God brought him into focus, he was the one the king sent for. It doesn't matter how many people know how to do what you do, when God brings you into focus, you are pulled out of the crowd.

Today, I see God remembering you. I see God zooming His attention on you. I see God bringing you into focus. This divine force will pull you out of obscurity into limelight. It will give you the position you do not deserve. It will terminate years of stagnation and pain. God will remember you today in Jesus Name.

Thought For The Day: Until a man is divinely remembered, he remains in obscurity

Work Point: Pray like Hannah did, Lord, remember me.

By me

All poems posted here are written by me. Please dont take credit of what is mine. Some are true some are not, poems I just felt like sharing, poems I know that some will relate to. I'm not a poet, no.  I'm trying.

What happened?

What happened?
How did you get into my heart?
Did you knock or was it a break in?

What happened?
How did we fall apart?
Loving you was just a sin

You promised me forever
Fondled my hair and whispered sweet nothings

Said we were meant to be together
Even bought me Picasso paintings

Why was I so weak?
Obviously I'm to blame

Tears flowing down my cheek
You probably thought this was a game.

Took my heart away,
Now I have no love in me left
I never thought I'd be a victim of theft

Well done, but just know that karma awaits you
So please don't come crawling back to me

Hope someday you'll experience what I went through
I'll never be a fool to someone as much as I've been to thee

It's okay

Sometime we meet bad people so just God can teach us a lesson
Life is too short to live with regrets

Why didn't I read from your expressions?
That what I see is what I get

Today I'm pouring my heart out
Facing with the demons of my life

I can hear them shout
As they bring me sorrow and strife

Loving you was a nightmare
It's like cutting myself with a blunt knife

So this was just an affair
While you were still in love with your wife

I was just....a toy to you...
Something you would just..toss around

My feelings for you were true
But they just ended up...on the ground....

Who are you here to represent?
Because you don't sound like Christ

I figured it out from your accent
When I was being enticed

Your chance of being loved unconditionally
Has now being blown away

Breaking my heart was ridiculously
easy for you day by day

You will never find someone like me
Someone to bring you joy all the days of your life

My love for you was bigger than the sea
Bigger than the one you receive from your "wife"

King Solomon asked for wisdom

So God appeared to King Solomon in a dream, and told him to ask for anything and He will do it for him, King Solomon was still a young man back then, without hesitating he asked for wisdom, and God had granted him wisdom. There will never be a man as wise as king Solomon.

So what if God had appeared to you in a dream? What would you ask for? I tell you, many will ask for wealth, as so to be rich, many will ask for materialistic things, some will ask for marriage. These things don't matter much.
Some will ask for God's healing, for food, for happiness, and some for success.

So take some time and ask yourself, what if God had appeared to you in a dream, what will you ask for?

Because King Solomon didn't ask for wealth or for any meaningless things, God promised to provide him with what he had asked for, wisdom. And He told him that because he hadn't asked for wealth or success, He will grant him what he didn't ask for.

1 kings 3
11 So God replied, “Because you have asked for wisdom in governing my people with justice and have not asked for a long life or wealth or the death of your enemies— 12 I will give you what you asked for! I will give you a wise and understanding heart such as no one else has had or ever will have! 13 And I will also give you what you did not ask for—riches and fame!

Why i refuse to be called christian

My parents classify themselves as christians, I don't. I don't have a problem with christianity or christians themselves, but I have a problem with christianity being a religion.

You may try argue with me and say christianity is a lifestyle, it might be, but christianity is a religion, and we all know that.

We all know that religion separates, yes it does, for there wouldn't be different types of religions such  as christianity, satanism, Buddhism, islam, Hinduism, Pagans etc. All these religions make it seem like there isn't a one God, but many Gods, Christianity claim that their religion is the only way to heaven, whilst Islam think that Allah is the only way.

So religion, segregates us in these little groups, and in these groups we have people insisting that their belief is correct because their "bible" that's inspired by their God tells them so.

Jesus had disciples, who were following him and his teachings, He didn't classify them as Christians, and there was no christianity or religion in Jesus' time.

And oh,  religion is indoctrination and indoctrination is wrong.

Ask any Christian what Christianity means, they will tell you that it means "striving to be like Christ", really now? Is it possible to be like Christ? No it isn't, I know that with God anything is possible, but we can't be like Christ, it is impossible!

I'll tell you why, Christ was born without sin, we were sinners, right from the beginning, Christ lived His life and died without sin, what about us? We continuously sin, no matter how hard we pray and ask for forgiveness, we will still sin, churches preach about repentance, so what do people do? They sin and hopefully ask for forgiveness and "repent", again tomorrow, they sin, ask for forgiveness and "repent", they do the same thing over and over again, I'm talking about them christians, who are striving to be like Christ.

Christ did not judge people, No, He did not curse, He did not have sex before marriage, He did not lie or cheat and steal, Christ was just never a sinner,
But christians do all these things and still convince themselves that they are striving to be like Christ.

I'm not a christian, so what am I? I'm a believer Of Christ, of God, I believe that they both exist, I believe that there is only one God, the one who made the heavens and the earth and everything that is in them, I believe that Jesus Christ died for my sins so that in Him I can be saved. What am I? I'm just a believer.

Formulae of prayer

So one day I was sitting in youth group, it was still early and there were a few of us waiting for others to come in so we can start the service.

This guy comes in, and he's like " God please send me a girl to love so I cannot be lonely anymore, please make me wealthy and please give me a permanent job"
Yes those where his exact words, I won't forget.

I told him that it is wrong to start a prayer like that, I told him that the correct way to start a prayer is by praising God, then confess your sins to Him, then thank Him for what He has done for you and then you can make a request, because praying like that makes you look like a selfish person.

He said that he didn't know that prayer has a formulae.
I laughed.

But I told him that God commands us to pray for others, to confess our sins to Him so that we can be forgiven, and I told him that, why can't we just thank God for what He has done for us, why do we continuously have to ask without giving thanks?

"Those people can pray for themselves, I'm not praying for anyone", yet he classifies himself as a man of God, wow.

I told him that, maybe he should think about those who are in hospitals, about the orphans who sleep on empty stomachs, those people who are in accidents, people who are lost, who are kidnapped, or being treated as slaves,I told him that his prayer might be able to save a life, and give hope or about change to one person.
He still wouldn't listen.

A week after that I bought a book by Loron Wade, I love this author, and I came across to this chapter, "A formulae of Prayer"
He says it goes like this:

A= adoration, praise God for who He really is
C= Confession, confess all your sins to Him
T= Thanksgiving, Thank God for what He has done.
S=Supplication, make requests for ourselves and others.

I'm not saying this is the correct way to pray, but that's how it should be done, I always pray for other people, whether I know them or not, I do know that my prayers reach God, and I do know that they bring about change in someone's life.

Prayer, the best weapon,

The key To God's heart.
