Common Man or Eternal Man
Strange things occur daily in our lives. Is that to say every man has to peruse their own self-interest? Surely by pulling all souls together can we function in perfect harmony? Do your cells decide to go haywire in your body? Only when they do, do you see the effects such as cancer, mutations etc.
God has not given us the spirit of fear but of a sound mind. I call on all people, tongue, colour, tribe and nation to hear the voice of our Lord. There is one God, and one Lord, one Creator of all and one Jehovah-Jireh (provider) for all. Hear his voice springing out like calm waters and seek him. For the man who seeks Him whole heartedly is wise.
God is not a mocker like you and I are. He is Holy and sovereign in all his ways, faithful and loving in all his promises and just and mighty in all his ruling. The righteous shall never be forsaken in his presence and in his presence do all of Heaven and earth and all the host of it dwell. We are one nation, a peculiar nation to be exact in his Holy temple. There is no division or segregation in the Lord’s mighty army. Forgiveness is an action that roles of His tongue and comfort is in his blood. By His word all things were made and by his decree all things consist.
Get to know your maker before the hour of visitation comes upon us all. The just who live by faith will see the face of their Lord and the wicked who live in their iniquities will see their souls scattered into pieces across the earth. Tremble before the name of Lord because it is an everlasting mighty name. There is no name like Jesus and there is no lover like him. There is no husband like Yahweh and there is no keeper like him. There is no shepherd like our maker and there is no Father like him.
Who can stand or come forward and proclaim they have produced a dime of what is in the earth. All creations exhort his glory and all mouths are made to praise him alone. The froward mouth he hates and the wicked he mocks. The rich he will make low and the poor he will raise. The wise and proud he will put asunder and the humble and meek he will lift up. The rock of our Lord is like an everlasting mountain that cannot be made to move. It is there forever because it is Him who is there forever. Those who trust in the Lord will see His mercies follow them all the days of their lives and they shall not be moved or shaken.
Cleave to your Lord God and forsake all these other graven images. They hold no power nor hold any glory. They boast of great things but are just blasphemous words towards our Holy God. Jesus came to fulfil his Father’s will and we are here to do the same. Every man has been predestinally willed by God to fulfil their purpose on this earth. But because God is just, the devil or should I say Satan has confused the gift of free will into an everlasting curse. All because you have the will to make a decision doesn’t mean you have willed that decision. What voice did you listen to, to let that anger flow, to let that hatred consume, to let that evil nature build a nest upon your head. Dearly beloved, that is your name, you are greatly and extraordinarily loved by your Creator. The quicker you realise this truth, the quicker that fear in your heart dissipates into thin air.
Let not what the guises of your eyes see, deceive the true sight which can only be seen with your spiritual eyes, your heart. Proverbs 4:23 says, “guard your heart with all diligence because out of it flows all the issues of life”. Jesus said “where your treasure is, there will your heart be also” (Matthew 6:21). Life is in the heart, you know this. Physically it is the only muscle that keeps you alive, and spiritually it is you. You are your heart. Jesus said, “out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks” (Luke 6:45). Therefore, your words whether a joke or seriousness flows out from somewhere. Yes, your heart and yes, every idol word will be accounted for on judgement day (Matthew 12:36).
So why are you so ignorant of the fact that you have been fearfully and wonderfully made by an all knowing Creator whose whole pleasure is to love you in an everlasting manner. Why is this truth so hard to accept my fellow man? Why do you seek the temporary things and forsake the eternal?
Men who proclaim there is no God in their hearts are fools as they have allowed the deceptiveness of Satan’s slithering words to sway them (Psalms 14:1). They are being tossed from the left and to the right. They scour the earth searching for answers when the answer has been revealed to them since the entry to this world.
The truth is life is given. Remember that. Life is given. Life is given. Life is given. Death is only the start to your eternal life. Life has always been given. Why would you have been fearfully and wonderfully made to live a horrid life on this already passing earth. The word of our Lord says, “heaven and earth shall pass but my word will never pass” (Matthew 24:35). That means by God’s word you were created and so by his word you will not pass.
Today when you hear the voice of the Lord do not harden your hearts. Forsake all you see around you and grasp the truth of life. Life is sweet if you know who you are in God. God is Love and you are loved by his love. That is all you need to know and brethren, that is all that matters. So today “seek ye first the Kingdom of heaven and all other things” (earthly things, whatever you have desired in your heart) will be added unto you” (Matthew 6:33). SEEK HIM FIRST. I AM THE WAY THE TRUTH AND LIFE…… JESUS CHRIST.

Grace comes through prayer
Father, thank you for allowing me to dwell in your courts. Today has been a difficult day as my body feels weary and my mind feels heavy. But Father, through all this I have come to know your faithfulness because the peace of the Holy Spirit has comforted me. You are mighty in all your ways Jesus. I have been healed by your word and by your word, joy has been set in the depths of my heart. You know Father, there is always beauty in my brokenness. You have become my strength and my refuge in times of distress, and on that note Lord Jesus, I want to say thank you for all the joy you keep feeding me with. I am blessed to know that my God is with me holding my right hand all the way. Thank you Father, I pray this in the name of Jesus, Amen.

My cry is to know him
What is man, that thou art mindful of him?
Father I do not understand what you are trying to convey unto me. I have not willed this day but you have awoken my Spirit to beat me into motion. I stand in your Holy courts waiting for the Majesty to approach me. Grace befalls me and mercy endures with me. Neither are of my own doing but the love you have for me exacerbates this process.
Father forgive me for I sinned in your presence. Every idle word I have used; I have allowed my tongue to get the better of me. I curse men with your precious breath and I bless them the same. What good is my blessing when I have cursed another. What fruitfulness will I pertain if my heart yearns for evil of another. How can I control this evil that dwells so deep within the very fabric of my soul? By your breath I became a living soul and by your time I will stop. Dust I shall return because by dust you formed me. Lord one thing I ask is that you savour the sweetness of my Spirit and deliver it unto your own will. Whether I be damned or saved, whatever your pleasure for my Spirit is, do away with it. It is all for your purpose.
My Lord God, who am I that you are so mindful of? What have I done that pleases you so much that you stepped off your throne to come and live for me. Why am I so important to your heart that you gaze upon me with such pleasure? I am but a worm in your presence. An undeserving worm who schemes evil doings in his own heart. Who imagines evil for others at a blink of the second. Though I strive to do good for others, when the moments of floods arrive evil takes heart quicker than a bird’s squeak. Only you know my heart and therefore only you know how deep evil has covered it.
My words are words of discomfort and without your righteouness, my goodness is like a filthy rag in your presence. Your word tells me to be strong and courageous, yet I squeak like a little girl at the sight of a mere mice. What mightiest then is there to be found in me? What courage or goodness is there to be used in me when fear has taken hold as if a sick old man is drawing his last breath. Foolishness leads my way and vanity is all I pray. Wisdom yes I crave yet drunkenness is all I pave. I worship you day and night with my vain words of praise, I kneel asking for mercy with my vain songs of praise. Hate consumes my heart faster than a bullet can say bite, yet I stand in your presence waiting for your grace.
Who am I that you are so mindful of, that you will not leave me to drown in the sickness of my being. Born to bare your image and likeness, yet I conform striving to be like others in this passing world. Born to praise your Holy name, yet I find pleasure in the names of dead men. Born to speak your everlasting words yet all my eyes read are vain and evil words. Am I you or are you me? Am I hate or is hate me? None can explain how much hurt goes through my body except my own Spirit who shows it to me.
All in all, I strive through day and night because somewhere out there, your love manages to reach me every step of the way. This is how I know who I am….
Your love tells me that I am made for greatness despite all my imperfections. Your love transports me to all manner of places despite my inability to travel. Your love draws nearer and nearer every time my evil ways get deeper and deeper. Your love gazes at me like a new born baby and kisses me fervently like a new married bride. Your love hates the things that I do, immediately alerting me not to do it again. Your love corrects me in all my ways and teaches me day by day how to praise. Your love tells me stories of you and how you came to be. Your love illuminates my night sky and grants me mercy every time I fall from grace.
Who am I that you are so mindful of me? I am your son who was lost in the wilderness and came to find you by the flowing river. I am your word that went astray and came to hear your voice so my path will be made straight again. I am your light that was supposed to shine but in sending your own light, you entered to shine in me. I am your love who knew you of old but fallen from grace we have married again. I am your pleasure who failed to see your pleasure but now I seek no other pleasure.
Who am I? my name is Man and I was made to seek you only. My ways are yours and my sight is yours. My words are yours and my creation is yours. My love is yours and my breath is yours. You are certainly me and I am certainly you. The only difference is, you rule and I follow. And to be honest Father, that is all I ever wanted to be. Thank you for loving me and never giving up on me. From now on I will seek your face and only your face will I seek. I will shout your name and only your name will I shout. I will walk your ways and your ways will I only walk. Your work is good and perfect; therefore, I am also made whole. Today is the day I have heard and harkened to the voice of the Lord and today is the day I am made whole. I love you Father, Glory and all honour is with you and you alone. Thank you Jesus. Amen
God Created You
