Taking New Territories

You are gods the Children of the most high...
In view of the above we are expected to conduct our affair like the most High to get the kind of result attributed to the most High. Hebrew 11: 2 'By faith our ancestors won approval'(International Standard version) and the first of 'our ancestor' mention was God Himself creating the world by Faith (Hebrews 11:3). It is wise for us as it is written to follow those through Faith and Patience inherit the promise. Our best example is God Himself.
Lesson from the Story of Creation......
Genesis 1:1, In the beginning God made the Heaven and the Earth and the earth was without form and void and darkness (confusion) was upon the face of the deep. Do you sense chaos, confusion, disorder, pandemonium, entropy, mayhem in any aspect of your life or are any of these the word to describe your present situation. Here is the good news; you are not the first to be in such situation, God was in a situation like that some years back and He found a way out. Yippee, there is a way out. Now let's see how God worked Himself out of Chaos.
Before you start praying...... PAUSE
Genesis 1:3, And God said, let there be light (illumination). This signifies understanding. Adjust your perspective, analyze the situation, use you head. This will help you know where and how to direct your prayer. Your life as a Christian is a covenant life: that means you have a part to play. Don’t just go to God and drop all you problem at His feet. Don’t be like he that is fighting against the wind. Don’t just expend strength without result. Have you been praying about a situation for a long time, does it look like you have been exacting strength in the place of prayer and no result? May be it is time to adjust your perspective; time to use your head. Ephesians 5:15 (MSG) ‘So watch your step. Use your head.’
