By His Sprit says the Lord

 “Not by your might, nor by your power, but by my Spirit saith the Lord of hosts” - Zechariah 4:6b

By His Spirit says the Lord


Nothing can be done on earth without God knowing about it because the earth is the lord’s and the fullness thereof (Psalm 24:1).

At the beginning of the year, God began to whisper the scripture, "not by your might, nor by your power but by my Spirit".  It's not by our understanding, but by His Spirit says the Lord.   He has the deepest places of the earth in His hands (Psalm 95:4)

Nothing can be done without Him knowing.

Absolutely Nothing!

The hearts of kings, presidents, and leaders are in His hands, and He can turn them as the rivers of waters; whichever way He wants to (Proverbs 21:1).  He is omnipresent and controls everything.

When the scripture kept coming to me, I began to ponder on it until it began to resonate with my soul.  we cannot do anything without the Spirit of God.

This is why we stress and we suffer from everything we try to do by our might, our powers, and abilities, but God is saying to us to cast our cares upon Him (1 Peter 5:2), and that it is only by His Spirit that we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us.

Nothing in life comes easy, that is why He sent His Spirit to help us, to guide us, to show us, and to comfort us.  By His Spirit, says the Lord.

You want to clean that house, but you don't have the strength?  Ask the Holy Spirit for strength, because it is by His Spirit says the Lord.

You have no money for transportation, and you need to get from point a to point b to get to that place? Ask the Holy Spirit for strength or ask God to provide the transportation, because it is by His Spirit says the Lord.

You are afraid because you don't know how the job interview will go and if you will mess it up? Ask the Holy Spirit for guidance, and remembrance, and to guard your lips, and control the words that come out of your mouth, because it is by His Spirit says the Lord.

You don't know if you will ace that test or exam even though you stayed up all night studying?  Ask the Holy Spirit to take control when you start answering the questions, because it is by His Spirit says the Lord.

By His Spirit, you will get that job you have been praying for.

By His Spirit, you will get the promotion you have been promised.

By His Spirit, you will overcome.

By His Spirit, you have been redeemed

By His Spirit, you are strengthened.

By His Spirit, you have been saved.

By His Spirit, you call things that be not as though they are.

By His Spirit, you lay hands on the sick and they are healed.

By His Spirit, you can walk above your situation as Peter walked on water.

By His Spirit, signs and wonders are done in His name.


We can't go through life or achieve anything easily without Him, and when we are in Him, everything is done by His Spirit.

According to Romans 5;17, we are to reign as kings in life.  We have dominion over our lives. We are to dominate not to be dominated.  Circumstances are not to dominate us. We are to dominate circumstances. 

Poverty is not to rule and reign over us, we are to rule over poverty.  Fear is not to rule and reign over us, we are to rule and reign over fear. sickness and diseases are not to rule and reign over us, we are to rule and reign over them. However, we can only do this by the Lord of Host Spirit, because it is not by our might, not by our power, but by His Spirit says the Lord.

God's Magnificent Love towards us

-

I think 🤔 one of the most important things I have learnt in life is God's magnificent love towards us.  I don't mean feeling or knowing He loves us, but understanding and having knowledge of His love towards us.  I have always struggled with faith and struggled with accepting where I am and where God has taken me.   I have always complained about this and that, never satisfied with what I have and what God has given me. Never wondering if there are lessons to be learned in all these and reasons for God doing what He is doing. Nevertheless,  when I began to gain knowledge and understanding of God's love, it led me to a better understanding of faith and who God is. I mean His love is so pure and so true that His thoughts towards us are of good not of evil to bring us to an expected end!  EXPECTED NOT UNEXPECTED! Meaning an end that is going to happen. When we have an understanding and knowledge of the love God has for us, we can trust Him and have complete faith in Him. He l

The Principle of Free Will and The Invincible Forces That Govern This World

-
Last year on this blog, I wrote about the fault being in us and not in our stars and how our actions are a ripple effect that governs the things that will eventually take place in our lives. I spoke on the principle of sowing and reaping. However, since then, I have come to realize that there is much more to life than us and the decisions we make. Whether we choose to believe it, we do not govern ourselves. There is a reason why the bible states that the whole world lies under the influence of the evil one. Ephesians 2:1-3 states that  God quickened us, who were dead in trespasses and sins; Wherein in time past, we walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. As you can see, free will

The fault is in Us

Shakespeare was right when he said that the fault is not in our stars but in us. The fault is indeed in us.  We are the problem.  And instead of us taking responsibility for our own actions, we choose to shift that responsibility to "fate".  An invincible force that supposedly determines the steps of human life..   This is what we refer to as our stars!  I believe in God and I believe He directs our steps when we choose His will and His way.  But most times, we tend to use the concept of free will to argue ourselves out of holes we used our own hands to dig ourselves into.   Look at the children of today! They are growing up with no role models, protection, or direction.  They are growing up in a world that has been perverted.  A world where some people want to consider pedophilia as a sexual trait instead of a crime.  Free will and the freedom to do as one pleases has been taken so much out of context, that people commit crimes based on rights.   We have created laws with lo
