Abundance I

Luke 5:7 And they beckoned unto [their] partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink.

From our theme scripture we understand that Peter signaled to only one boat. Had he signaled to as many boats as he could, wouldn’t they have been filled too? Obviously they would but at that point Peter had little faith. Child of God that should teach you a lesson to enlarge your capacity to receive God’s huge blessing by faith. 

What limits may be the formal education we received in school. For instance we learn things like economics which tell us about scarcity of resources and that even influences our thinking or speech. On the contrary if we choose to side with the Word, we shall be overcomes and walk in the abundance that God desires us to.

Their boats started to sink because of the extravagant and abundant blessing that they experienced in a short time! This should teach us that God does not need a long time to do what He wants to do for you for our God owns time. If it took someone ten years, you will need two days! Again our limitations sometimes come from the processes we go through naturally, someone spends about a quarter of their life in school before they graduate and they tend to think God will take that long to work to bless them. They forget that supernaturally God can work a miracle in an instance. 

What is it that you are expecting God to do in your life? Time is not a factor to God. Do not say am about 40 years and I have not done A, B, C. Just believe Him, draw your net and you will have a huge catch. God is going to do it in a short time because He is able.  

Naturally, do you know that fish cannot be caught except in the early mornings or late evening. I believe Jesus was neither in such times when He went fishing with them. Perhaps it was afternoon time. It means Jesus defied all natural laws and did a miracle in such a short and unusual time!

In the same way, Jesus' blessing to you will defy all the laws of nature because He is a God of abundance, hallelujah!

Justified by faith

Romans 5:1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: God has made us right with Himself. This is extremely good news because we could not measure up to His standard of righteousness portrayed by the law.  Most religions including some who profess Christianity advocate for a "do right and be right with God" kind of relating with God. This puts the burden of salvation upon the performance of the adherents to such religions. On the other hand true Bible faith, says believe right and then be made right with God independent of your actions. All this is because of God's goodness who wants all to be saved whether they have any previous morally good life or not. If you really get a revelation of this you would burst for joy and rejoice in what God has made you instead of what you can do for Him, hallelujah! It all starts with faith. If you believe you are justified or are forever made just before him, it affects your life in a certa...

A year of good things

Image
Matthew 7:11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him? Years represent new seasons. Every season God has a specific word for us His children that we need to run with. When we run the year based on that Word, our results will be evident. In this season as the Streams of life and Nations churches God gave us a word through our Father Bishop Gerald Mwebe that we are going to have good things.  Last year 2025, was a year of great grace. This year God prophetically is giving us good things. One of the good things He has already given us is the gospel. The gospel is the message we preach and live by. We need to realise as believers that we have a message which will touch lives not only in this world but for eternity. The gospel is not only for non believers but for nonbelievers also. Many believers all they hear are the curses that follow them from the past generations....

Jesus, the reason for the season

Image
Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Jesus is the reason for the season we are in. He is the gift of God unto men. Who on earth does not like gifts and who on earth can reject the Gift of all gifts, moreover given by God Himself? Jesus cannot be rejected because He is love, He is Grace, He is Life and Truth.  In case you doubt His claims you cannot argue with everything that happens in this season. It's evidence that His claims are true. All the jubilations around worldwide and around town are because He is the joy to the world, the decorations all over the place are because He is the Light of the world, the endless traffic jams, people arm twisting themselves in the bus parks fighting for a seat in the bus to head back to the villages, the commotion in the business centre as everyone wants to grab...
