When Your Ways Please The Lord
Just at the cool of the day, in the stretching and yawning hour came this old man to me on my meditation seat.

Goosebumps had covered and swallowed me, and my intestines and all the chemical combinations as formed and patterned by God had frozen. My neck lost the ability to lift my head, aiding my eyes to see what strange thing was up against me.

Who is this man?
what could have made him this powerful?
I kept on wondering until I heard his thoughts whispered to me; "When a man's ways please the LORD, he makes even his enemies be at peace with him".

These words went deep beyond my marrows, piercing hard into me.

As He changed position, He continued with a narrative of a man whose life was fused and had become synonymous with the letter l. As He mentioned 'Church', my heart quaked and He continued.

This man had five children from a faithful wife, who died in an accident on her way to church service. One day, He left His house late for church, and on getting there, He discovered that the new church building had collapsed.

To his utmost shock, all His children had left home for church. He moved around the place looking at casualties and discovered His first daughter brutally murdered by the collapse.

This man stood and got lost in shock. Got helped by men around, and recovered the corpses of his five children.

He has then pronounced a widower and a seedless fellow.

The next Sunday as the church resumed worship, he came very early, joined in arranging the new place and service held, and was over for the day.

A man walked up to Him on His way home and asked Him; "when would you stop going to this God that killed your wife and five children?" He replied and said; "the day the sun and moon change duty post"

Meaning, I can never stop.

This man fell into poverty and was still committed to His work in the house of God, He eventually died after a few years of much suffering.

I then gathered a few words and asked; sir, why did God deal with Him in that manner?

He picked me by the shoulder and I felt electric shock all through my body and said to me: "he suffered all those things so that you will learn today not to give up on your faith in your God"

Hmmm.

Beloved!
The man opened my eyes to the fact that the said man in the narrative was an example set by God to them that will come after so that they will look upon his story and stand firm in their walk with God.

Beloved, this is just the 14th day of December, and you're already giving up on that big expectation. You are already picturing a failed year and have given up, mounting and pushing all your faith to 2023.

Beloved, what could be worst on earth than a man losing his whole family in the house of God and yet holding on and finishing strong with God?

Beloved, you don't have an excuse to stay sad and moody, your excuse of not attending church again is not and can never be accepted in the courtroom of heaven.

The most powerful one is you, don't nurse an excuse of why you shouldn't fulfill that big dream or why you won't receive that great expectation before this year folds.

Greater than what you're going through, had many men gone through and yet finished strong.

Take this for the free beloved: you only can determine how your end would be.

Please don't ask the meaning of what I just said, just know this; "When a man's ways please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him. Proverbs 16:7

You cry and lament maybe, of many expectations not yet seen, I want to ask, are your ways pleasing to the lord?

Believe me, if they are, then you don't need to worry, just stay calm and keep holding on to the God you serve, that expectation will become your testimony before the end of this month in Jesus' Holy name, amen.

Should in case your ways not pleasing to the lord, you don't need any man to come to prophesy that to you, you know it within you.

Just bow your head this moment and pray this prayer with me, believe me, you will harvest great results if you make your way right with the Lord God Almighty.

Pray with me and say; lord Jesus, I am a sinner in need of your help, please come into my life and be my Lord and Savior, I take the decision today to follow, help me lord to follow you forward ever and backward never in Jesus Holy name, amen.

Congratulations beloved, welcome to God's family, please don't stop here, locate a Bible-believing Church near you and get committed to the service of God as you grow in God's love.

Beloved, if you were blessed, please share with as many as you can.

God bless and keep you.
