Apostle Grace Lubega

Zechariah 12:7(KJV); The Lord also shall save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem do not magnify themselves against Judah.

‘Tents’ in the scriptures are symbolic. They represent the temporary nature of situations if seen through the eyes of men and women of faith.

When speaking of life in tents, the Bible makes reference to Abraham and says, “[Prompted] by faith he dwelt as a temporary resident in the land which was designated in the promise [of God, though he was like a stranger] in a strange country, LIVING IN TENTS with Isaac and Jacob, fellow heirs with him of the same promise” Hebrews 11:9(AMP). Abraham set the example of a life in ‘tents’.

When you live your life in ‘tents’, our theme scripture reveals that salvation will come to you.

For example, you may be a minister with a fifty-member congregation but your vision is a congregation of fifty thousand members. You are living your life of ministry in a ‘tent’ by preaching as a man ministering to thousands and serving as a man with responsibility for thousands.

The assurance the Lord gives you today is that for people with such a mindset and ‘heartset’, salvation will surely come. You will attract great numbers of people and God will trust you with multitudes.

You may be a businessman with a small outlet in your town but your idea is to build a global business. If you are living in ‘tents’ by exercising the work ethic of the president of a conglomerate, be assured that salvation will come.

Never despise your small beginnings (Zechariah 4:10). Never allow them to be an excuse for mediocrity. Allow God to shape your character as you climb up the ladder of success. Be the minister you want to become; be the businessman you wish to grow into; be the career person you would want to employ.

Hallelujah!

FURTHER STUDY: Hebrews 11:9, Zechariah 4:10

GOLDEN NUGGET: Never despise your small beginnings. Never allow them to be an excuse for mediocrity. Allow God to shape your character as you climb up the ladder of success. Be the minister you want to become; be the businessman you wish to grow into; be the career person you would want to employ.

PRAYER: Father, I thank You for this Word. Thank You because my future is bright and glorious. I yield to Your Spirit to deal with me, comforted that You are preparing me for greater things. I succeed in all my plans because I understand the principles of life in ‘tents’. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

OBULAMU MU ‘WEEMA’ – 1

Omutume Grace Lubega

Zekkaliya12:7(KJV) Era Mukama alisooka okulokola eweema za Yuda, ekitiibwa ky’ennyumba ya Dawudi n’ekitiibwa ky’abo abali mu Yerusaalemi kireme okugulumira okusinga Yuda.

‘Weema’ mu byawandiikibwa zikozesebwa nga akabonero akakiikirira ekintu ekirala.
Zikiikirira ekika ky’embeera ezitali za lubeerera bw’eziba nga zirabiddwa okuyita mu ndaba y’abasajja n’abakyala ab’okukkiriza.

Ibulayimu yatuwa eky’okulabirako ky’obulamu obw’omu weema.

Bw’otambuliza obulamu bwo mu weema, ekyawandiikibwa kyaffe ekigguddewo kitubikkulira nti obulokozi bujja kujja gy’oli.

Obulamu bwo obw’obuweereza obeera obutambuliza mu weema ng’obuulira ng’omusajja aweereza enkumi n’enkumi era ng’owereeza ng’omusajja alina obuvunanyizibwa eri enkumi n’enkumi.

Okukakasibwa Mukama kwakuwa olwaleero kuli nti abantu abalina ekikula ky’endowooza ng’eyo n’omutima ng’ogwo, obulokozi ddala bujja kujja. Ojja kusikiriza omuwendo gw’abantu omungi ennyo era ne Katonda anaakwesigisa n’enkuyanja.

Abrahamu akaba eky’okureeberaho ky’okutuura omu ‘mahema’.

Ku orikutuura omu ‘mahema’, ekyahandikirwe kyaitu nikishoborora ngu okujunwa nikwija ahariiwe.

UBUZIMA MU ‘MAHEMA’ – 1

Apostle Grace Lubega

Zekariya 12:7 “Kandi Uwiteka azabanza gukiza amahema y’i Buyuda, kugira ngo icyubahiro cy’inzu ya Dawidi, n’icy’ab’i Yerusalemu cye kwamamara ngo kirute icy’u Buyuda.

‘Amahema’ mu byanditswe afite icyo avuze. Ahagarariye ibihe by’igihe gito iyo tubirebeye mu maso y’abagabo n’abagore bo kwizera.

Iyo tuvuga ubuzima bwo mu mahema, bibiliya yerekeza kuri Aburahamu ikavuga ngo, “Kwizera ni ko kwatumye aba umusuhuke mu gihugu yasezeranijwe, akaba nk’umushyitsi muri cyo AKABANA MU MAHEMA na Isaka na Yakobo, abaraganywe na we ibyo byasezeranijwe,

Iyo ubuzima bwawe bubayeho mu ‘mahema’, icyanditswe twifashishije gihishura ko uzakizwa.

Urugero, ushobora kuba uri umukozi w’Imana ufite itorero ry’abantu mirongo-itanu ariko iyerekwa ryawe ari iry’abantu ibihumbi mirongo itanu. Ubuzima ubayeho mu gukorera Imana ububayeho mu ‘ihema’ ubwiriza nk’umuntu ubwiriza ibihumbi kandi ukora nk’umuntu ufite inshingano z’ibihumbi.

Ubwishingizi Imana iguhaye uyu munsi ni uko abantu bafite bene ibyo bitekerezo ndetse ‘n’umutima uteye utyo’, bazabona agakiza. Uzabona abantu benshi kandi Imana izaguha imbaga nyinshi.

Ushobora kuba umucuruzi ufite iduka rito mu mujyi ariko ibitekerezo byawe ari ukubaka ubucuruzi ku isi yose. Niba uba mu ‘mahema’ witoza gukora nka perezida w’ibigo byinshi, menya neza ko uzabona agakiza.

Ntugasuzugure itangiriro rito(Zekariya 4:10). Ntukemerere ko riba impamvu yo kuba umuntu usanzwe. Emerera Imana kuguhindura kandi uko uzamuka mu gutera imbere kwawe. Ba umukozi w’Imana ushaka kuba we; ba umucuruzi ushaka kuba we; ba wa munyamwuga washaka guha akazi.

MAISHA KWENYE ‘MAHEMA’ – 1

Mtume Grace Lubega

Zekaria 12:7 (KJV); Naye BWANA ataziokoa hema za Yuda kwanza, ili utukufu wa nyumba ya Daudi, na utukufu wa wenyeji wa Yerusalemu, usipate kutukuzwa kuliko Yuda.

“Mahema” katika maandiko yana maana iliyofichika. Yanaonyesha hali ya muda mfupi wa mambo na jinsi yanavyoonekana kwa macho ya wanaume na wanawake wa imani.

Tunapozungumzia maisha katika mahema, Biblia inamrejelea Ibrahimu na kusema, “[Aliposukumwa] kwa imani alikaa kama mkazi wa muda mfupi katika nchi ambayo iliteuliwa katika ahadi [ya Mungu, ingawa alikuwa kama mgeni] katika nchi geni, ALIISHI KWENYE MAHEMA na Isaka na Yakobo, warithi pamoja naye wa ahadi ile ile (Waebrania 11:9 (Toleo la AMP). Abrahamu aliweka mfano wa maisha katika ‘mahema’.

Unapoishi maisha yako katika “mahema” andiko letu la mada linatuonyesha kwamba wokovu utakuja kwako.

Kwa mfano, unaweza kuwa mhudumu aliye na mkutano wa watu hamsini lakini maono yako ni ya mkutano wa washiriki elfu hamsini. Unaishi maisha yako ya huduma katika ‘hema’ kwa kuhubiri kama mtu anayehudumia maelfu na kuwatumikia kama mtu aliye na jukumu kwa maelfu.

Uhakikisho ambao Bwana anakupa leo ni kwamba kwa watu wenye akili na ‘moyo’ huo, wokovu utakuja. Utavutia idadi kubwa ya watu na Mungu atakuamini na umati wa watu.

Unaweza kuwa mfanyabiashara aliye na duka ndogo katika mji wako lakini wazo lako ni kujenga biashara ya kimataifa. Ikiwa unaishi katika ‘mahema’ kwa kutumia maadili ya kazi kama aliye rais wa makampuni tayari, nakuhakikishia kuwa wokovu utakuja.

Kamwe usidharau mwanzo wako mdogo (Zekaria 4:10). Kamwe usiuruhusu uwe kisingizio cha kutofanya kazi kwa ubora. Mruhusu Mungu abuni tabia yako unapopanda ngazi ya mafanikio. Kuwa na mwenendo wa waziri unayetaka kuwa; kuwa na mwenendo wa mfanya biashara unayetaka kukuwa; kuwa na mwenendo wa mtu wa kazi ambaye ungetaka kumwajiri.

Haleluya!

MASOMO ZAIDI: Waebrania 11: 9, Zekaria 4:10

UJUMBE MKUU: Kamwe usidharau mwanzo wako mdogo (Zekaria 4:10). Kamwe usiruhusu uwe kisingizio cha kutofanya kazi kwa ubora. Mruhusu Mungu abuni tabia yako unapopanda ngazi ya mafanikio. Kuwa na mwenendo wa waziri unayetaka kuwa; kuwa na mwenendo wa mfanya biashara unayetaka kukuwa; kuwa na mwenendo wa mtu wa kazi ambaye ungetaka kumwajiri.

SALA: Baba, nakushukuru kwa Neno hili. Asante kwa sababu maisha yangu ya baadaye inang’aa na ni ya utukufu. Ninajitoa kwa Roho wako anishughulikie, kwa ufariji kuwa unaniandalia vitu vikubwa zaidi. Ninafanikiwa katika mipango yangu yote kwa sababu ninaelewa kanuni za maisha katika ‘mahema’. Katika jina la Yesu, Amina.

帐棚里的生活 (第一部分）

撒迦利亚书 12: 7 (RCU17SS) 『耶和华要先拯救犹大的帐棚，免得大卫家的荣耀和耶路撒冷居民的荣耀胜过犹大。』

圣经中的帐棚是象征性的。那么圣经中帐棚意味着是什么呢？如果通过信仰的人的眼睛来看，它们代表了情况的暂时性。

谈到帐棚里的生活，圣经以亚伯拉罕为例说, 『因着信，他就在所应许之地作客，好像在异乡，居住在帐棚里，与蒙同一个应许的以撒和雅各一样。』《希伯来书 11:9 RCU17SS》亚伯拉罕树立了帐棚生活的榜样。

当你住在帐棚里，圣经告诉你救恩会降临到您。

例如，您可能是一个有50人的教会的牧师，但你的愿景是一个有5万人的教会。您在一个 “帐棚” 里过着事奉的生活，作为一个服侍数千人的人和一个对数千人负责的人。

今天，耶和华对那些有这种心态和心的人作保证，拯救一定会到来。上帝会把许多人放在你下面。

您可能是一个商人，在您的镇上有一个小分店，但您的想法是建立一个全球性的企业。如果您生活在一个“帐棚”里，通过锻炼一个企业集团总裁的职业道德，请确信救恩会到来。

不要轻视小的开始（撒迦利亚书 4:10）。永远不要让它们成为平庸的借口。当您爬上成功的阶梯时，让神塑造您的性格。做您想成为的部长，做您想成为的商人，做您想雇用的职业人士。

哈利路亚!

参考经文： 《希伯来书 11:9》，《撒迦利亚书 4:10》

金句： 不要轻视小的开始。永远不要让它们成为平庸的借口。当您爬上成功的阶梯时，让神塑造您的性格。做您想成为的部长，做您想成为的商人，做您想雇用的职业人士。

祷告： 神父，我感谢您的这句话。感谢您，因为我的未来是光明的。我屈服于神的灵, 对付我, 我知道您准备的东西很棒。我所有的计划都很出色，因为我了解“帐棚”里的生活原则。以耶稣的名义。阿门。

At The Centre Of It All

[restabs alignment=”osc-tabs-left” responsive=”false” seltabcolor=”#87cc22″ tabhovercolor=”#87cc22″]
[restab title=”English” active=”active”]
Apostle Grace Lubega 

Ephesians 1:23 (MSG); The church, you see, is not peripheral to the world; the world is peripheral to the church. The church is Christ’s body, in which he speaks and acts, by which he fills everything with his presence.

The church is not peripheral to the world, the world is peripheral to the church. This means that the church is not at the fringes of societies, it is at the centre and core of nations.

This world is not a model for the church, the church is a model for the world. 

Sadly, many Christians confess this truth but hardly exercise themselves in it. Until you embrace this truth as your personal reality, you will never influence nations.

For example, you might be an employee at an institution. Are you conscious of the fact that your presence in that place is a blessing to the company? Do you really believe it? Do you understand that you are a source of increase? 

If you own a business, do you work like your business is the heartbeat of your community or are you after having enough cash flow for bills, school fees and meals?

If you are a student, you are the life of that institution. Believe it! 

Never allow anything physical to diminish the reality of this divine truth. God said it and it stands true. 

You are the life and the light every where you go. Say it to yourself, work like it and act like it. 

Stand out as a force of change because of who is in you. Never allow the world to push you to the side as it plans for your future and your children. The next generation is your responsibility and the world your grandchildren will live in, is yours to shape.

Live with this awareness every single day and pattern yourself after it, in how you pray, in how you serve God and in your work ethic.

His name be praised!

FURTHER STUDY: Matthew 5:14, 1 Peter 2:9

GOLDEN NUGGET: This world is not a model for the church, the church is a model for the world. You are the life and the light every where you go. Say it to yourself, work like it and act like it. Stand out as a force of change because of who is in you. 

PRAYER: Lord, I am thankful for this word. I know who I am and whose I am. I live in the daily consciousness of divine realities. I am the head and not a tail, I am above and not beneath, I am an influencer of influencers and I am a counsellor of counsellors. This world is a better place because I am in it. I bring change everywhere that I go. To the glory of Your name, Amen.

以弗所书 1:23 《CNVS》『教会是他的身体，是那充满万有者所完全充满的。』

在万有之心

这个世界不是教会的典范，教堂是世界的典范。

可悲的是，许多基督徒承认这个真理，却很少在其中锻炼自己。直到你接受这个真理作为你的个人现实，你永远不会影响到国家。

如果你有生意，你是否把你的企业视为你所在社区的一个非常重要的一根部分或者你的目的只是有足够的现金流支付账单、学费和餐费？

如果你是学生，你得明白你就是那所学校的生命。相信它！

永远不要让任何东西削弱这个神圣真理的真实性。神说的, 这是真的。

无论你走到哪里，你是世界的生命和光。你自己说吧，工作并表现得像那样。所以，你们要站出来，成为改变的力量，因为基督住在你们里面。

所以，你们要站出来，成为改变的力量，因为基督住在你们里面。下一代是你的责任。你的孙子们将要生活的世界，由你来塑造。

在你祈祷的方式，在你服侍神说的方式上以及你的职业道德，每天都要有这种意识然后模仿它。

赞美神的伟大名！

参考经文： 《马太福音5:14》 ，《彼得前书2:9》

The Power Of Principles

[restabs alignment=”osc-tabs-left” responsive=”false” seltabcolor=”#87cc22″ tabhovercolor=”#87cc22″]
[restab title=”English” active=”active”]

Apostle Grace Lubega

Genesis 25:23(KJV); And the LORD said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.

By eternal design, Jacob was more graced than Esau. 

He did not work for the right to be served by Esau like it was prophesied. He did not labour for the birthright that he received from his brother and neither did he work for the blessing that he cunningly tricked his father into giving him.

Jacob was the man of grace, a recipient of certain things by divine favour while Esau was the hard worker and a man of principles.

In Genesis 25:27(MSG), the Bible reveals that when the boys grew, “Esau became an expert hunter, an outdoorsman. Jacob was a quiet man preferring life indoors among the tents.”

But let’s examine how the life of Esau with all his limitations turned out. 

God blessed Esau so much that in Genesis 33, when Jacob sent peace offerings to his brother, Esau said, “I have enough, my brother; keep that thou hast unto thyself.”

Whereas the children of Israel, Jacob’s descendants suffered for years in captivity, the Edomites, descendants of Esau enjoyed freedom in their own land.

When the children of Israel eventually left Egypt, they spent 38 years around Mount Seir, the inheritance of Esau, drinking Edomite waters and feeding on Edomite food.

That is the power of principles! 

Principles gave Esau the less favoured man, tremendous wealth. Principles made Israel dependent on Edom. 

Principles are the difference between the successful unbeliever and the struggling Christian. 

They are the difference between the innovative atheist and the stranded tongue-speaker. 

It is true that you are blessed by God but you must remember that He is also a God of principles. 

God values hard work, diligence and excellence. In as much as you claim the blessing, apply the principles too. Be faithful in your workplace, be proactive in how you deliver service, work hard at every task, think critically through issues and position yourself as an ardent problem solver. 

Hallelujah!

FURTHER STUDY: Genesis 33:9, Genesis 25:27

GOLDEN NUGGET: God is a God of principles. He values hard work, diligence and excellence. In as much as you claim the blessing, apply the principles too. Be faithful in your workplace, be proactive in how you deliver service, work hard at every task, think critically through issues and position yourself as a problem solver and not a complainer. 

PRAYER: Father, I thank You for this Word. Thank You for Your instructions on success and growth. I know that I have been blessed and favoured by You but I also apply the principles in Your Word diligently because they are a manual for increase. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

AMAANYI G’ENNONO

Omutume Grace Lubega

Olubereberye 25:23 Mukama n’amugamba nti Amawanga abiri gali mu lubuto lwo. N’ebika ebibiri biryawukana n’okuva mu byenda byo: N’eggwanga erimu linaasinganga eggwanga eddala amaanyi; N’omukulu anaaweerezanga omuto.

Okusinziira ku ntegeka ya katonda ey’olubeerera, Yakobo yaweebwa ekisa ekissukuluma ku kya Esawu.

Teyakolerera bbeetu lya Esawu kumuweereza, nga bwe kyalagulwa. Teyalafuubanira busika bweyafuna okuva eri muganda we wadde okukolerera omukisa gwe yaleetera kitaawe okumuwa mu bukujjukujju.

Yakobo yeeyali omusajja ow’omu kisa, omufunyi w’ebintu ebimu ku lw’okuganja kw’obwakatonda ate nga ye Esawu yali mukozi nnyo ate era omwami ow’ennono.

Mu Olubereberye 25:27(nzivunula yobubaka), Bayibuli etubikkulira nti abalenzi bano bwe bakula, ” Esawu yafuuka omuyizzi omukugu, omusajja ow’omu nsiko; Yakobo yali musajja muteefu eyayagalanga okutuula  munda mu weema.

Naye, katwekkaanye engeri obulamu bwa Esawu n’ebikugirwa byabwo byonna bwe bwavaamu.

Katonda yawa nyo Esau omukisa nti ne Mu Oluberyeberye 33 Yakobo bwe yaweereza ebiweebwayo eby’okutabagana eri mugandawe, Esawu yayogera nti “Bye nnina bimmala; muganda wange, by’olina bibe bibyo.”

Abaana ba Isiraeri, bazzukulu ba Yakobo bwe baali babonaabonera emyaka emingi mu busibe, aba Edomu, bazzukulu ba Esawu baali banyumirwa eddembe mu nsi yaabwe.

Abaana ba Isiraeri bwe baamala ne bava e Misiri, baamala emyaka Asatu mu munaana(38) nga betooloorera ku lusozi Seyiri obwaali obusika bwa Esawu, nga banywa amazzi g’aba Edomu, era nga balya ku mmere y’aba Edomu.

Ago g’emaanyi g’ennono.

Ennono zaawa Esawu eyali ow’okuganja okutonoko, obugagga obutagambika.
Ennono ze zaaletera Isiraeri okuba nga eyimirizibwaawo Edomu.

Ennono ze zaawula oyo atakkiririza mu Katonda kyokka nga muwanguzi n’omukkiriza alafuubana.

Zezaawula oyo atakkiriza nti Katonda gyaali naaba muyiiya ku mwogezi we nnimi ez’omwoyo atabuddwa era ataseeseetuka.

Kituufu nti Katonda yakuwa omukisa naye olina okujjukira nti era ye Katonda ow’ennono.

Katonda assaamu ekitiibwa okukola ennyo, obunyiikivu n’okusukkuluma. Wadde nga oyimirira ku

Erinnya lya Mukama lyebazibwe.

Akasumbi ka zaabu: Katonda assaamu ekitiibwa okukola ennyo, obunyiikivu n’okussukkuluma. Wadde nga oyimirira ku mukisa, n’ennono ziteeke mu nkola.

IMBARAGA Z’AMAHAME

Apostle Grace Lubega

Itangiriro 25:23 Uwiteka aramusubiza ati”Inda yawe irimo amahanga abiri, Amoko abiri azatandukana, Ahereye igihe azavira mu mara yawe. Ubwoko bumwe buzarusha ubundi amaboko, Umukuru azaba umugaragu w’umuto.”

Mu kurema, Yakobo yari yaragiriwe ubuntu kurusha Esawu.

Ntiyakoreye kuba Esaeu yaba umugaragu we nkuko byahanuwe. Ntiyakoreye kuba imfura abikuye kuri mukuru we ndetse ntiyanakoreye umugisha yakuye kuri se yiyoberanije.

Yakobo yari umugabo w’ubuntu, umuntu wakiriye ibintu bimwe kubw’igikundiro cy’ubumana mu gihe Esawu ariwe wakoraga cyane ndetse akanaba n’umugabo w’amahame.

Mu itangiriro 25:27, bibiliya ihishura ko umuhungu akuze, “Esawu yatangiye guhiga kinyamwuga, yari umuntu uhora hanze. Yakobo yari umuntu ucecetse uhora yibera mu nzu mu mahema.”

Ariko ka turebe ubuzima bwa Esawu nuko ibye byagenze

Imana yahaye umugisha Esawu cyane no mu Itangiriro 33, igihe Yakobo yohereje impano y’amahoro, Esawu yaramubwiye ngo, “Mfite ibihagije, mwene data; bika impano zawe.”

Mu gihe abana ba Isirayeli, abakomoka kuri Yakobo babaye imyaka myinshi mu buretwa, abanya Endomite, bakomotse kuri Esawu babayeho neza mu gihugu cyabo.

Igihe abana ba Isirayeli bavaga muri Egiputa, bamaze imyaka 38 ku musozi seir, umusozi wa Esawu, bankwa amazi yaho barya n’ibiryo byaho.

Izo nizo mbaraga z’amahame!

Amahame yahesheje Esawu utari warahawe ubuntu bwinshi, ubutunzi bwinshi. Amahame yatumye Isirayeli ibeshwaho na Edom.

Amahame niyo tandukaniro hagati y’utizera wateye imbere n’umukristo ukigerageza.

Niyo tandukaniro hagati y’uhakana Imana n’uvuga indimi waheze hamwe.

Ni ukuri wahawe umugisha n’Imana ariko ugomba kwibuka ko ari Imana y’amahame.

Imana yubaha umuntu ukora cyane, utitiriza ndetse ukora ibintu neza. Uko wasingira umugisha kose, ubahiriza n’amahame. Ba umwizerwa mu kazi kawe, kora neza mu buryo utanga serivisi, kora cyane mu nshingano zose, tekereza neza mu bibazo bihari hanyuma wishire mu mwanya w’umuntu ukemura ibibazo neza.

他并没有像预言的那样，为得到以扫服侍的权利而工作。他不是为他从他哥哥那里得到的与生俱来的权利而劳动。他也没有为他的父亲的祝福而工作，因为他狡猾地欺骗父亲给他祝福。

雅各是一个很受惠于恩典的人，是一个受惠于神的恩惠，而以扫是个勤劳有原则的人。

在创世纪 25:27《The Message》，圣经揭示了当孩子们长大后，『以扫善於打獵，常在田野. 雅各為人安靜，常住在帳棚裡。』

但让我们来看看以扫的一生是怎样的，尽管他有种种的局限。

神如此赐福于以扫，以致在创世纪33，雅各给他哥哥送平安祭的时候，以扫说『兄弟啊，我的已经够了，你的仍归你吧！』

后来我们看见，雅各的后裔（以色列的子孙），在被掳中受苦多年。但是以扫的后裔以东人在自己的地上享有自由。

以色列人离开埃及的时候，在以扫的地业西珥山周围住了三十八年，喝以东人的水，吃以东人的食物。

那就是原则的能力。原则给了以扫，一个不太受惠于恩典的人，巨大的财富。同样的原则使以色列依赖以东。以色列人离开埃及的时候，在以扫的地业西珥山周围住了三十八年，喝以东人的水，吃以东人的食物。

原则是成功的不信主者和挣扎的基督徒之间的区别。

他们是创新的无神论者和搁浅的说方言者之间的区别。

诚然，你是上帝赐福的，但你必须记住，上帝也是一个原则之神。

神看重勤奋、和卓越. 在你声称得到祝福的同时，也应用原则. 在你的工作场所要忠诚，积极主动地提供服务，努力完成每一项任务，批判性地思考问题，把自己定位为一个热心的问题解决者.

哈利路亚！

参考经文 ：《创世纪33:9》，《创世纪25:27》

金句： 神看重勤奋、勤奋和卓越. 在你声称得到祝福的同时，也应用原则. 在你的工作场所要忠诚，积极主动地提供服务，努力完成每一项任务，批判性地思考问题，把自己定位为一个热心的问题解决者。

A Price Worth Paying – 2

[restabs alignment=”osc-tabs-left” responsive=”false” seltabcolor=”#87cc22″ tabhovercolor=”#87cc22″]
[restab title=”English” active=”active”]

Apostle Grace Lubega 

Psalm 51:17(KJV); The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.

Oftentimes, Christians who want God to use them pray that He bends them or breaks them. 

The question I put to you, beloved of God is, ‘Do you really know what it means for God to break or bend you? Do you make the prayer with understanding or do you do so because it sounds like a good thing to say? Do you assume that somehow, in breaking and bending you, He gets a hold of your spirit and twists it until it is malleable to His will?’ 

Well, God breaks and bends men by dealing with their hearts. The heart is the ground that must give way for God to work through a man.

The Message Bible version of our theme scripture says, “I learned God-worship when my pride was shattered. HEART-SHATTERED lives ready for love don’t for a moment escape God’s notice.”

It’s all about the heart. 

How then does God deal with the heart? 

One of the ways God will deal with your heart is through the people He will allow in your life. 

As a minister, it might be a very rebellious, disrespectful and opinionated church member. God expects you to exercise patience and long-suffering in how you relate with them so that they too can mature in the Christian faith. In causing you to exercise patience with such people, God is bending and breaking you.

As an employee, it might be a domineering, unfair and rude boss. Do you answer back? Do you disrespect them in turn for trampling all over your very delicate sensibilities? No! God is bending and breaking you in the pattern of honour for authority. Besides, you are not alone. David had Saul. Jacob had Laban.

People will test your ability to love, your levels of compassion and the threshold of your endurance yet God will let them because your heart must be broken enough for Him to love them through you.

So, the next time you face a trial with a human face, do not regard that person as the bane of your existence but as a training ground for your heart. Respond with love and compassion. Let them see God through you.

FURTHER STUDY: Romans 5:5, 1 Corinthians 13

GOLDEN NUGGET: One of the ways God will deal with your heart is through the people He will allow in your life. People will test your ability to love, your levels of compassion and the threshold of your endurance yet God will let them because your heart must be broken enough for Him to love them through you.

PRAYER: My Father, I thank You for Your Word. You have loved me with an everlasting love and for that, I am eternally grateful. This same love has been shed abroad in my heart and flows through me to the world around me. It teaches me patience, kindness, to hold no grudges and to believe in people in spite of their weaknesses. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Ebiseera ebisinga, Abakristaayo abaagala Katonda okubakozesa basaba nti abeetowazise oba abamenyeemenye.

Ekibuuzo kyenkubuuza, mwagalwa wa Katonda ky’ekino, ‘Ddala omanyi kyekitegeeza Katonda okukumenyaamenya oba okukweetowazisa? Osaba mu kutegeera, oba okikola otyo kubanga kiwulikika nga ekigambo ekirungi okwogera? Olowooza nti mu ngeri emu oba endala, Katonda, mukukumenyaamenya oba okukweetowazisa, akwaata omwoyo wo naamunyoola mpaka nga mugonvu eri okwagalakwe?’

Mwatu, Katonda amenyaamenya era yeetowazisa abantu ng’akwasaganya mitima gyabwe. Omutima, ly’ettaka eririna okuwa Katonda omwaganya okukolera mu muntu.

Enzivunula y’obubaka y’ekyawandiikibwa kyaffe ekigguddewo egamba, “nayiga okusinza okw’obwakatonda amalala gange bwegamementulwa. Obulamu OBW’OMUTIMA- OGUMEMENTUDDWA nga gweteeketeekedde okwagala Katonda taagugayenga.“

Byona byesigamye ku mutima.

Kaakano, Katonda akwasaganya atya omutima?

Emu ku ngeri katonda gy’ajja okukwasaganyamu omutima gwo kwe kuyita mu bantu b’ajja okukkiriza mu bulamu bwo.

Ng’omuweereza, ayinza okuba omu ku b’ekanisa bo omujeemu, omunyoomi, akkiririza mu bilowoozo bye byokka. Katonda akusuubira okwetendeka obugumiikiriza n’okulindirira (okuzibiikiriza) mu ngeri gy’okolaganamu nabo, balyooke basobole nabo okukula munzikiriza y’ekikristaayo. Mu kukuleetera okwetendeka okugumiikiriza abantu ng’abo, Katonda abeera akumenyaamenya, era nga akweetowazisa.

Ng’omukozi, ayinza okuba mukamaawo ow’effuga bbi, atali mwenkanya era omukambwe.Oyinza omuddamu? Naawe omuyisaamu amaaso olw’okuba nga akulinyirira oba tafaayo kungeri gy’owuliramu eyetaaga okwegendereza? Nedda! Katonda ali mukukweetowazisa era ali mukukumenyaamenya munkola ey’okussaamu ekitiibwa obukulembeze. Ng’ovudde ne kwekyo, toli wekka. Daudi yalina Saulo, Yakobo yalina Labbaani.

Abantu bajja kugezesa obusobozi bw’okwagala bw’olina, amadaala g’olimu mu kusaasira, n’ekkomo ly’obugumiikiriza bwo, kyokka nga Katonda ajja kubakkiriza kubanga omutima gwo gulina okumenyebwa ekimala Ye(Katonda) okubaagala nga ayita mu gwe.

N’olwekyo, omulundi omulala gw’onaasanga okugezesebwa n’omuntu, totunuulira muntu oyo nga akalubya obulamu bwo naalemesa okubeerawo kwo naye kitwale nga kutendekebwa kwa mutima gwo. Yanukula n’okwagala n’okusaasira. Leka balabe Katonda okuyita mu ggwe.

Zaburi 51:19 Ibitambo Imana ishima ni umutima umenetse, Umutima umenetse ushenjaguwe, Mana, ntuzawusuzugura.

Kenshi, abakristo bashaka ko Imana ibakoresha bagasenga bagira ngo Imana ibagonde cg ikureho icyo aricyo cyose kitambika mu kuba bayikorera.

Ikibazo nkubaza, mukundwa w’Imana, ‘Uzi Imana kukugonda cg gukuraho ikitambitse icyo bivuze? Ukora iryo sengesho uzi neza icyo uvuga cg urivuga kuko ryumvikana nk’ikintu cyiza cyo kuvuga?Wibwira ko ahari, mu kumeneka cg kukugonda, Imana ifata umwuka wawe ikawuhindura kugeza aho uhinduka ubushake bwayo?

Rero, Imana imena ndetse ikagonda abantu ikora ku mitima yabo. Umutima niwo ugomba gutanga inzira kugirango Imana ikore mu muntu.

Bibiliya ya The Message ku cyanditswe twifashishije iravuga ngo, “Nize KURAMYA-IMANA igihe ubwibone bwanjye bwashenwe. IMITIMA-IMENETSE yiteguye gukunda ntijya ibasha kutabonwa n’Imana.”

Byose ni umutima.

Ni gute rero Imana ikorana n’umutima?

Imwe mu nzira Imana ikorana n’umutima wawe ni ukunyura mu bantu izemerera kuza mu buzima bwawe.

Nk’umukozi w’Imana, bashobora kuba ari abakora ibyo bishakiye, batubaha ndetse ari abantu bo mu itorero bafite ibitekerezo byabo bwite. Imana ishaka ko witoza kwihangana cyane mu buryo ubana nabo kugirango bakure mu kwizera. Mu gutuma witoza kwihanganira bene aba, Imana iba iri kukugonda kandi ikuraho ibyitambika.

Nk’umukozi mu kazi, bishobora kuba umukoresha uguhora hejuru, ubēra kandi utavuga neza. Ese uramusubiza? Uramusuzugura kuko akuzonga? Oya! Imana irimo irakugonda ndetse iranakuraho ibikwitambika mu rugero rwo kubaha abagukuriye. Usibye nibyo, nturi wenyine. Dawudi yari afite Sawulo. Yakobo yari afite Laban.

Abantu bazagerageza ubushobozi bwawe bwo gukunda, urwego rwawe rwo kubabarira ni uko wihangana kandi Imana izatuma bakuzaho kuko umutima wawe ugomba kugonda bihagije kugirango ibakunde ikunyuzemo.

Rero, ubutaha nuhura n’ikigeragezo mu isura y’umuntu, ntugafate uwo muntu nkaho ariwe ukubuza kubaho ahubwo umufate nk’ikibuga gitoza umutima wawe. Subizanya urukundo n’impuhwe. Ka babone Imana muri wowe.

诗篇 51:17 (CKJVSDS) 『上帝所要的祭就是忧伤的灵； 上帝啊，忧伤痛悔的心，你必不轻看。』

对神的深刻而亲密的认识需要一种付出的代价 —— 那就是谦卑。

圣经上说，神的知识使得深渊被裂开。《箴言3：20》这意味着，在对神的认识上，有一些层次是无法超越的，如果一个人的心没有相应层次的破碎。

有些人认为，他们所需要做的就是不断增加知识，以便从上帝获得更多的知识。然而，事实并非如此。事情的真相是，神只能向一个有被碎心的人揭露他自己奥秘的智慧。

世界上有些基督徒因为无知而有一颗骄傲的凡心，他们甚至不知道。

这些人可以做成祷告、做成禁食和做成事奉中劳作，但他们没有披上谦卑的外衣。

谦卑是让你听从上帝的声音，当他指示你秘密地祝福那个在社交媒体上说你坏话的人。神的孩子，这让你很伤心，但这是值得付出的代价。

谦卑是强逼你原谅一个侮辱和欺骗你的基督徒同伴。神的孩子，这让你很伤心，但这是值得付出的代价。

谦卑是使你能与社会各阶层的人接触的原因；它会使你驱车数公里到城郊的一个家里，为一位教会成员生病的母亲祈祷，因为必须必须在信和爱中服事给圣徒。

今天，我比以往任何时候都更强烈地敦劝您放下虚荣的心和骄傲。不要让你在社会上的崇高地位阻碍你去接触神派你去的人。

无畏地彼此相爱。因为您所事奉和寻求的神，渴求他在您路上所安置的众人的心。

参考经文：《马太福音 23:12》,《彼得前书5:6》

A Price Worth Paying – 1

Apostle Grace Lubega

Psalm 51:17(KJV); The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.

Deep and intimate knowledge of God comes at a price: humility. 

When the Bible speaks of how the knowledge of God breaks depths(Proverbs 3:20), understand that depths cannot be broken without a corresponding level of brokenness in a man. 

Do not for a moment imagine that all you need to do is to keep increasing in knowledge in order to access even more knowledge in Him. The truth of the matter is that God can only expose certain hidden insights in Himself to a broken man. 

There are Christians in this world that are burdened by a pride born of ignorance and they don’t even know it. 

Such men and women labour in prayer, labour in fasting and labour in service but they can never labour under the burden of humility.

The burden of humility is what causes you to heed to the voice of God when He tells you to give, in secret, to the man who has been speaking ill of you on social media. It breaks you child of God, but it is a price worth paying.

The burden of humility is what pushes you to forgive a fellow Christian who has insulted and cheated you. It breaks you child of God, but it is a price worth paying.

The burden of humility is what makes you available to men from all classes in society; it will cause you to drive kilometres to a home at the outskirts of the city to pray for the sick mother of a church member because you must minister in both faith and in love. 

Today, more than ever, I urge you to drop the laurels and discard the crowns. Do not allow your elevated status in society to stand in the way of reaching out to those God sends you to. 

Love without apology because the God you serve and seek hungers for the hearts of all those men and women that He places in your path. 

FURTHER STUDY: Matthew 23:12, 1 Peter 5:6

GOLDEN NUGGET: Deep and intimate knowledge of God comes at a price: humility. God can only expose certain hidden insights in Himself to a broken man.

SATU HARGA PEMBELIAN YANG BERNILAI

Apostle Grace Lubega

Mazmur 51:17 Korban untuk Allah ialah hati yang hancur; hati yang hancur dan sesal, Ya Allah, tidak akan Kauremehkan.

Pengetahuan tentang Tuhan yang mendalam dan intim mempunyai harga pembelian yang tinggi: kerendahan hati.

Apabila Alkitab membicarakan tentang bagaimana pengetahuan tentang Tuhan memecahkan perkara yang amat dalam (Amsal 3:20), fahamilah bahawa sesuatu yang dalam itu tidak dapat dipecahkan tanpa tahap kehancuran hati yang sama pada seseorang.

Jangan sesekali membayangkan bahawa yang hanya perlu anda lakukan adalah untuk terus meningkatkan pengetahuan kamu agar dapat mengakseskan lebih banyak pengetahuan yang ada di dalam Dia. Sebenarnya dalam perkara ini Tuhan hanya dapat menyatakan perkara-perkara yang tersembunyi dalam diriNya kepada orang yang mempunyai hati yang hancur.

Terdapat orang Kristian di dunia ini yang dibebani oleh kesombongan yang lahir dari kejahilan dan mereka bahkan tidak mengetahuinya.

Orang-orang seperti itu berusaha dalam doa, bekerja keras untuk puasa dan bekerja keras dalam pelayanan tetapi mereka tidak pernah berusaha bekerja di bawah bebanan kerendahan hati.

Bebanan kerendahan hati adalah apa yang menyebabkan kamu memberi perhatian kepada suara Tuhan ketika Dia menyuruhkan kamu untuk memberi, secara rahsia, kepada seseorang yang telah berbicara buruk tentang kamu di media sosial. Keadaan itu menghancurkan hati mu anak Tuhan, tetapi satu harga pembelian yang amat bernilai.

Beban kerendahan hati adalah apa yang mendorongkan kamu untuk memaafkan saudara-saudara Kristian yang telah menghina dan menipukan kamu. Ia akan memecahkan hati mu anak Tuhan, tetapi ia merupakan satu harga pembelian yang bernilai tinggi.

Beban kerendahan hati adalah yang membuat anda bersedia untuk melayani sesiapa saja dari semua kelas dalam masyarakat; ia akan menyebabkan kamu memandu sejauh beberapa kilometer ke rumah yang terletak jauh di pinggir bandar untuk mendoakan seorang ibu anggota gereja yang sakit. Ini adalah kerana kamu mesti melayani baik dalam iman maupun di dalam kasih cinta.

Hari ini, lebih-lebih lagi daripada sebelum ini, saya menggesakan kamu untuk melepaskan segala martabat dan mahkota kebanggaan. Janganlah biarkan status anda yang tinggi dalam masyarakat menghalangi kamu untuk menjangkau mereka yang Tuhan telah bawakan kepada kamu.

Cintailah tanpa menuntut kemaafan kerana Tuhan yang kamu layani dan cari adalah lapar kepada semua lelaki dan wanita yang Dia telah letakkan di jalan laluan kamu.

KAJIAN LANJUT: Matius 23:12, 1 Petrus 5: 6

KATA-KATA EMAS: Pengetahuan tentang Tuhan yang mendalam dan intim mempunyai harga pembelian yang tinggi: kerendahan hati. Tuhan hanya dapat menyatakan perkara-perkara yang tersembunyi dalam diriNya kepada orang yang mempunyai hati yang hancur.

DOA: Bapa ku yang penyayang, saya mengucapkan terima kasih. Hati saya haus kepada Mu. Hancurkan, bengkokkan dan bunuhlah diri ini, Tuhan. Cintailah melalui saya, tunjukkan belas kasihan Mu melalui saya dan berikanlah harapan kepada dunia ini melalui saya. Dalam nama Yesus, Amin

Be Wise In Knowledge

[restabs alignment=”osc-tabs-left” responsive=”false” seltabcolor=”#87cc22″ tabhovercolor=”#87cc22″]
[restab title=”English” active=”active”]

Apostle Grace Lubega

Ephesians 1:17-18(KJV); That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,

Knowing the Word of God and what it says does not mean that you are wise in the knowledge of God. 

In the Message version of 1 Corinthians 8:7, the Bible says, “…But knowing isn’t everything. If it becomes everything, some people end up as know-it-alls who treat others as know-nothings…”

There are Christians who are unwise in how they demonstrate faith, unwise in how they prophesy, unwise in deliverance, unwise in how they restore the brethren and even unwise in how they defend the Christian faith. They have knowledge but they lack wisdom in that knowledge.

The scriptures we quote every day, I assure you, can destroy the ignorant and unstable. 

In 2 Peter 3:16(MSG) the Bible says, “…Some things Paul writes are difficult to understand. Irresponsible people who don’t know what they are talking about twist them every which way. They do it to the rest of the Scriptures, too, destroying themselves as they do it.”

Over the course of history, men have destroyed themselves (and others), in quoting that for which they lack wisdom. 

The Salem witch trials championed by Puritans were backed by scripture. The crusades in the medieval period, aimed at recovering the Holy Land from Islamic rule had scriptural backing. Men have quoted scripture to start wars, shed innocent blood and destroy entire nations.

What does this mean to you child of God? 

Firstly, you must remember that no scripture is of private interpretation(2 Peter 1:20). 

We error when we ride on the wheels of scriptures that we have isolated from the general context of the entire Word of God. 

Secondly, understand that the Word and the Spirit agree. If you quote a scripture calling fire down from heaven because you have such impressive faith, and forget that the Spirit of God is full of compassion for the lost, you stray outside the walls of divine wisdom. 

Lastly, be conscious of the fact that Christ has been made your wisdom(1 Corinthians 1:30) and as such, His wisdom at work in you causes you to exercise your knowledge in God wisely.

Praise be to His name!

FURTHER STUDY: 2 Peter 3:16, 1 Peter 2:8

GOLDEN NUGGET:
Christ has been made your wisdom and as such, His wisdom at work in you causes you to exercise your knowledge in God wisely.

PRAYER: Father, I thank You for this Word. I am wise in how I minister, serve and demonstrate the life of God. When people study my life, they see a pattern of wisdom because my experiences with You and in You are not only of knowledge but of the wisdom that comes from above. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

BEERA WA MAGEZI MU KUMANYA

Omutume Grace Lubega

Abaefeeso 1:17-18 Katonda wa Mukama waffe Yesu Kristo, Kitaffe ow’ekitiibwa, abawe omwoyo ogw’amagezi n’ogw’okubikkulirwa mu kumutegeera ye; nga mumulisibwanga amaaso ag’omutima gwammwe, mmwe okumanya essuubi ery’okuyita kwe bwe liri, obugagga obw’ekitiibwa eky’obusika bwe mu batukuvu bwe buli,

Okumanya Ekigambo kya Katonda na kki kye kyogera tekitegeeza nti oli mugezi mukumanya okw’obwaKatonda.

Mu nzivunula ey’Obubaka, 1Abakkolinso 8:7, Bayibuli egamba, “….Naye okumanya ssi kwe buli kimu. Ssinga kufuuka byonna mu byonna, abantu abamu bafundikira nga abamanyi mu byonna era ne bayisa abalala nga abatalina kye bamanyi”

Waliwo abakristayo abatali bagezi mu ngeri gyeboolesaamu okukkiriza, abatali bagezi mu ngeri gyebalagula, abatali bagezi mu kusumulula, abatali bagezi mu ngeri gyebakomyaawo aboluganda ababuze, n’abatali bagezi mu ngeri gyebalwaanirira okukkiriza kwabwe. Balina okumanya naye tebalina magezi mu kumanya okwo.

Ebyawandiikibwa byetwogera bulijjo, nkukakasa nti bisobola okuzikiriza oyo atalina kumanya n’oyo atali munywevu mu kukkiriza.

Mu 2 Petero 3:16 (mu nzivunula ey’Obubaka) Bayibuli egamba nti, “…Ebintu ebimu Paulo byawandiika bizibu okutegeerwa. Abantu abatalina buvunanyizibwa, abatamanyi kyebogerako babinyoola mu ngeri zonna. Bakikola ne ku byawandiikibwa ebirala, nebazikkirira batyo nga bwebakikola.

Okuyita mu mikululo gy’ebyafaayo, abantu bezikkiriza (nebazikkiriza n’abalala), mu kukozesa ebyawandiikibwa nga tebalina magezi gabyo.

Okuwozesebwa kwa’balogo mu kibuga kya Salemu (Salem witch trials) okwakulemberwa ab’enzikiriza y’obutukuvu kwesigamizibwanga ku byawandiikibwa. Entalo z’amadiini (obubombo bwa magye g’ekkanisa) mu biseera wakati w’ekyaasa eky’okutano n’ekye kumi ne tano, ezagendererwa okuddamu okweddiza ettaka ettukuvu okuva eri enfuga y’abayisilaamu “zesigama” kubyawandiikibwa. Abantu bakozesezza ebyawandiikibwa okutandika entalo, okuyiwa omusaayi gw’abo abatalina musango, nokusaanyaawo amawanga amalamba.

Kino kitegeeza ki eri ggwe omwana wa Katonda?

Ekisookera ddala, olina okujjukira nti tewali lunyiriri mu byawandiikibwa luvunulirwa ku ntegeera ya muwandiisi kwoka (2 Petero 1:20).

Tukola ensobi bwetutambulira ku byawandiikibwa byetwaawudde okuva ku ntegeera ennambulukufu eyaawamu ey’ekigambo kya Katonda kyonna.

Ekyokuburi, olina okutegeera nti Ekigambo n’Omwoyo wa Katonda bikkiriziganya. Singa ojuliza ekyawandiikibwa nokoowola omuliro okuva mu ggulu kubanga olina okukkiriza okwesiimisa, neweerabira nti Omwoyo wa Katonda ajjudde ekisa eri abo abaabula, obeera owabidde ebweru w’ebisenge bya magezi ag’obwakatonda.

Ekisembayo, beera ng’omanyi amazima nti Kristo y’afuulibwa amagezi go ( 1 Abakolinso 1:30) era n’olwekyo, amagezi Ge agakolera mu ggwe gakuleetera okukozesa okumanya kwo mu Katonda mu ngeri eya magezi.

Erinnya lya Mukama litenderezebwe!

YONGERA OSOME: 2 Petero 3:16, 1 Petero 2:8

AKASUMBI KA ZAABU: Kristo y’afuulibwa amagezi go (1 Abakolinso 1:30) era n’olwekyo, amagezi Ge agakolera mu ggwe gakuleetera okukozesa okumanya kwo mu Katonda mu ngeri eya magezi.

ESSALA: Kitange, nkwebaza kulwekigambo kyo. Ndi mugezi mungeri gye mperezaamu ne gye njolesaamu obulamu bwa Katonda. Abantu bwebekkaanya obulamu bwange, balaba okukola kw’amagezi kubanga ensisinkano zange naawe era muggwe teziri mukumanya kwokka wabula ne mu magezi agava waggulu. Mu linnya erya Yesu, Amiina.

Kuriga ira, abantu batwaire nibehwerekyereza kandi abandi barikugamba ebyo ebi batainemu bwengye.

Be A Diligent Seeker

Apostle Grace Lubega

Proverbs 24:30-34(MSG); One day I walked by the field of an old lazybones, and then passed the vineyard of a lout; They were overgrown with weeds, thick with thistles, all the fences broken down. I took a long look and pondered what I saw; the fields preached me a sermon and I listened: “A nap here, a nap there, a day off here, a day off there, sit back, take it easy–do you know what comes next? Just this: You can look forward to a dirt-poor life, with poverty as your permanent houseguest!”

God loves and responds to diligent seekers. In Hebrews 11:6, the Bible reveals that He is a rewarder of those that diligently seek Him.

Our theme scripture gives an example of a seeker who is NOT diligent because sluggardness is not just physical, it is spiritual too.

There are Christians who are very liberal with the ‘breaks from God’ that they give themselves. They will show up for a service today and only show up the next time they need a boost to their diminishing morale. They are very diligent in taking days off from God.

How about those whose prayer lives are largely hindered by the power of sleep? For them, it is a nap here and a nap there in critical moments when they should be in prayer. They are very much like the disciples to whom the Lord said, “Could you not watch with me one hour?”(Matthew 26:40).

The effects of spiritual sluggardness cannot be overstated child of God. Your fences and walls will develop cracks and eventually come tumbling down because they are not fortified by diligence. When attacks come, they will not find you with much of a defence.

Seeking God is not a hobby to be pursued on one’s time and at your self-indulgent pace; it is a lifestyle. Don’t expect to move God with one foot in the closet and another in your next agenda.

Be serious about God and He too will be serious about you.

In Proverbs 22:29, the Bible says, “Seest thou a man diligent in his business? He shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men.” The writer uses the word business on purpose. So pray like you mean business. Read the Word like you mean business. Worship like you mean business. Minister like you mean business.

Hallelujah!

GOLDEN NUGGET:
Seeking God is not a hobby to be pursued on one’s time and at your self-indulgent pace; it is a lifestyle. Don’t expect to move God with one foot in the closet and another in your next agenda. Be serious about God and He too will be serious about you.

The Assurance To The Faithful

Apostle Grace Lubega

Luke 16:10(KJV); He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much.

Replacements in the realm of the spirit happen because sometimes, people abuse spiritual timelines.

If you are serving under a ministry in any capacity, God wants to grow you even in that responsibility. He wants to trust you with more for the sake of His Kingdom.

When He says in His Word that he that is faithful in what is least is faithful in much, do not ignore the time component between the moment when a person is trusted with little and the moment when they are trusted with much. The demand for faithfulness in that role has a timeline.

Some Christians assume they can eternally meander in the maze of mediocrity pertaining to the things of God and get away with it, much like a bored public servant who won’t care less because of permanent tenure in his job. The kingdom of God is much more serious than that.

If within the timeline you are appointed to serve in a certain capacity, you are lax with your duties or turn your office into a lofty throne room from which you run your little kingdom and terrorise everyone else, God will replace you.

When the winds of purpose blow, they do not merely blow to position men, they also blow to displace the indifferent.

Be diligent with what you have been trusted with. Give yourself wholly to it in the knowledge that you are serving the Almighty God.

If service demands proactivity, be proactive. If service demands stretching your limits, stretch yourself in the knowledge that the grace is available. Serve God with all your heart because He rewards faithfulness.

Hallelujah!

FURTHER STUDY: Hebrews 6:10, 1 Corinthians 4:2

GOLDEN NUGGET: Be diligent with what you have been trusted with. Give yourself wholly to it in the knowledge that you are serving the Almighty God. If service demands proactivity, be proactive. If service demands stretching your limits, stretch yourself in the knowledge that the grace is available. Serve God with all your heart because He rewards faithfulness.

PRAYER: Loving Father, I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to serve You. What an honour! What a privilege. Like the apostle Paul says, I choose to serve with my very spirit and to spend and be spent for the sake of Your Kingdom. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

It Is Not About Genetics

Apostle Grace Lubega

Matthew 12:47-50(KJV); Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee. But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren? And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren! For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.

When Jude introduces himself in his letter, he says, “Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James…”(Jude 1:1).

Similarly, James introduces himself as “James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ…” (James 1:1).

James and Jude were brothers of Jesus Christ in the flesh. They all came from the same womb, being their mother, Mary’s. We notice, however, that none of them starts their epistles by introducing themselves as brothers of Jesus Christ. Each of them calls himself “a servant of Jesus Christ.”

They did not relate with Christ based on the fact that they all had the same mother. They related with Him based on the fact that He was anointed by God.

This teaches us that a relationship with God is not hereditary. It is not something to be passed on through bloodlines.

Are you related to a man or woman of God? Are you close friends with them?

That is not a qualification for favour with God. Never lay a claim to the anointing solely because of your relationship to an anointed man or woman of God.

It is important to pick good lessons from the anointed men and women in your life but you should never forget that the journey of faith has maturity to it. Lift your head above your physical associations and friendships with God’s ministers, and seek spiritual impartation.

Hallelujah!

FURTHER STUDY: Jude 1:1, James 1:1

GOLDEN NUGGET: It is important to pick good lessons from the anointed men and women in your life but you should never forget that the journey of faith has maturity to it. Lift your head above your physical associations and friendships with God’s ministers, and seek spiritual impartation.

PRAYER: Father, I thank You for the spiritual authorities in my life. I thank You for the patterns they are to me. I refuse to allow any familiarity to breed contempt. I honour the anointing for what it is and by this wisdom, I grow in You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
