WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT GOD THAT WILL MAKE YOU STRONG AND DO EXPLOIT


“At the appointed time he shall return and go toward the south; but it shall not be like the former or the latter. For ships from Cyprus shall come against him; therefore he shall be grieved, and return in rage against the holy covenant, and do damage. So he shall return and show regard for those who forsake the holy covenant. And forces shall be mustered by him, and they shall defile the sanctuary fortress; then they shall take away the daily sacrifices, and place there the abomination of desolation. Those who do wickedly against the covenant he shall corrupt with flattery; but the people who know their god shall be strong and do exploits. And those of the people who understand shall instruct many; yet for many days they shall fall by sword and flame, by captivity and plundering. Now when they fall, they shall be aided with a little help; but many shall join with them by intrigue. And some of those of understanding shall fall, to refine them, purify them, and make them white, until the time of the end; because it is still for the appointed time.” Daniel 11:29-35
Man is naturally a fearful, lazy and ignorant being who sometimes without being forced want to avoid challenges, and may not want to be confrontational with adversaries at any instances, and as Christians we are not so much different from the rest of humanity in those flaws. However, through histories Christians, either as a group or individual, have been found to have achieved a number of considerable victories in every human endeavour, but must of such victories were not without a backup force from God.

Today, it appears to me that many, larger percent of Christians, have been much fearful than any time in the history of man. We don’t want to cause ‘trouble’, not knowing that for trouble we are called and think that victory in any way on earth is worldly, not knowing that without it Christ Jesus, our Lord, will not be known. Failure to manifest Christ Jesus in the physical gives devil an opportunity to present himself as an angel of light. So our victories and achievements in any endeavour are not worldly. However, such a belief that to achieve victories on earth are worldly is not natural: they are mostly outcomes of the failed attempts of some spiritual leaders who have failed to achieve certain things due to the facts that God is not involved in the course, and in efforts to justify their failure often come up with such ideologies and sayings that cover up God, Christian ever faithful Confidant and Support.

In every instance, God wants us to challenge and to achieve things and greatness for in them He is most glorified. But these days, we do not only fail to achieve remarkable things as our old faithful spiritual leaders, but we have also surrendered to enemies and prefer to even join them in what they do because we are fearful and do not know our God. Apostle Paul says to us in Ephesians 6:10, “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. …that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.” However, knowing God and what He is capable of is one way we can be strong and stand to do great exploits in the day of adversities we may be passing through as apostle Paul said, “For this reason I also suffer these things; nevertheless I am not ashamed, for I KNOW WHOM I HAVE BELIEVED and am persuaded that HE IS ABLE TO KEEP WHAT I have committed to Him until that Day.” 2 Timothy 1:12.

So what are those things we should know about our Father, our God that will make us strong and do exploit in our days? Consider the following:

·        He is too faithful to fail. Unless He doesn’t send you. Unless you do not inform Him before you start. Unless He doesn’t give you the go-ahead. Unless it is towards a wrong motive. Unless you do not call to Him. Unless you are not initially with Him. Unless it won’t glorify Him. Unless He considers it better in another way different from your perspective.
·        He is the alpha and the omega. “Who is he who speaks and it comes to pass, when the Lord has not commanded it? Is it not from the mouth of the Most High that woe and well-being proceed?” Lamentations 3:37-38. Until God has spoken, no one speaks. Until He says it is over, nothing is over, because there is none before Him and after Him.
·        He is stronger than anyone and has power over everything. He is the Controller-General of everything in the universe. He brings great kings down to nothing, Daniel 4:19-37; He renders might men useless, Samuel 17:34-54; He stops the earth from rotating, Joshua 10:12-15; He makes fire lose its flame and heat, Daniel 3:16-30; He stills the storm, Mark 4:35-41; He feeds thousands with one person’s meal, Matthew 15:32-39; He divides water without containers, Exodus 14:10-31. Etc.
·        He alone knows better and the best. Do you say you have a better plan? I bet you, you don’t have a plan to become a nation. You don’t have a plan to control the whole world, Revelations 5:10-11. Do you say you will better than the way you are if you have some things? Then think of king Hezekiah, Isaiah 38;39. We don’t know anything; we don’t have any better plan than God, Jeremiah 29.
·        He loves all human beings, but He loves His own more. Proverbs 8:31.

Therefore, don’t stop doing the great works you have at hand. Challenges will definitely come along your ways, but you don’t have to let them stop you from achieving your goals because you have known who is backing you up.

THE REAL MEANING OF SCHOOL

Issue of school in regards to its meaning is one of the modern topic amongst educationists. While school is described in a layman term just as a place of learning; it is professionally described as an organized environment for formal education – which means education that follows certain processes. And the features of school, as it is being often mentioned, include: school authority and staff, classrooms, laboratories and libraries, textbooks and lesson notes, students, tables and chairs, various buildings and offices, ink or chalk boards and other materials of instruction. But school, in the real sense, is more than all that have been mentioned as the major features; my description of school is simply a place of getting additional knowledge to one's own natural knowledge. Therefore, the real features of a school is everything and anything that contributes to the growth of one's knowledge, causes the expansion of one's mind, increases one's intelligence quotient, ...

THE SECRET DEEDS OF JESUS CHRIST THAT MADE HIM GREAT (Part 1)

As Christians who wants to become as great as Jesus Christ on earth and in heavens, just as our Father in heaven desires, Romans 8:29, and which shows that it is very possible to become like Him, we cannot be so by categoring mainly on His backgrounds as reason for His greatness in any sense. If it is for His backgrounds that God says we should focus and listen to Him for us to be great, then we cannot be like Him in any way, because our mothers were not virgin before and after they gave birth to us. They were probably virgins before they knew our fathers, but never after they came across our fathers - the connection that preceded our conceptions. And for that, every other thing has no value in itself as for us to become like Jesus Christ in comparison to backgrounds. Read the introduction to this series Therefore, when God instructs us to focus on Jesus Christ, He is telling us to pay attention to what Jesus did and how He did it. It is in that we have our road map to h...

THE EVILS THAT HAPPEN TO THE GOOD SAMARITAN

As Christians in this present generation, we tend to question God why He allows evil in someone else situation and good in another, especially someone we might consider 'underserved'. Such judgement is not sentimental, I will say, rather a result of our inability to understand the indepth of God's sovereignty and His declared words. What kind of things that happens in today society to the good 'ones'; 'why him or her?' And 'why not him or her?' We could argue the issue passionately and with good different points of view that could cast down any other plausible argument concerning the situation. And as such, some people's minds, and ultimately their faith could shrink back from their sincere service and worship to God and to Christ Jesus, our saviour, because of the things that happen to the good Samaritan, who deserves care and love and, even to some extents to be worshipped. But the truth of the two kinds of situation - good and bad ...

GOD NEEDS YOUR WEAKNESS

By Charlene Nelson on desiringGod.com Suffering has shown me that my strength is not in me. The raging seas have made me cling to the rock of my salvation. I can say in full conviction, “If the Lord had not been my help, my soul would soon have lived in the land of silence. When I thought ‘My foot slips’ your steadfast love, O Lord, held me up (Psalm 94:17–18).” God has shown me my own weakness through debilitating pain — fibromyalgia and severe pelvic separation during two pregnancies, as well as years of anemia causing brutal fatigue. I now not only know my weakness, but I feel it acutely. In the past year, though I had earnestly believed it was time for some relief, God brought me even lower when I was diagnosed with a stomach tumor, waded through follow up tests, and underwent surgery. The Secret to Suffering As a mom of two children under school age, walking through these trials has been unspeakably difficult. But during this recent cancer scare it was, perhaps, the f...
