John 1:14- “And the Word (Christ) became flesh, and lived among us; and we [actually] saw His glory, glory as belongs to the [One and] only begotten Son of the Father, [the Son who is truly unique, the only One of His kind, who is] full of grace and truth (absolutely free of deception).”
Reflecting on what it means when desire meets provision then there will be performance. The prayer is to know the Lord’s day and what makes for perfection. The wise sees parts are different and all differences work to unison of purpose. Then there are those who think that all has to be eyes, seeing things one way. Though there is the sense of being one mind and having a single vision of purpose. That has to countenance having different perspectives but with success in mind, bringing in a creative aspect, a diversity of spiritual gifts but yet God in all. At this level it’s a broad thinking and openness to God’s way.
At Christmas let us think how we see the perfection in what God is doing today and a release to not hinder. If your utopian idea don’t come to fruition, how can you work with what’s in your hand? Or wait, lose what you have, and realise the best was yesterday. Perhaps a little with happiness is better. See it for yesterday, or for tomorrow. Together has to be key, of one heart. Of one bone, of one flesh. Yet different parts. There is truth that there is a remnant according to grace.
There is consistency with scriptures if we are thankful for every blessing with anticipatory hope of what is to come. As one politician in recent times of our 21st century would admonish- unburdened by the past. So true, one cannot be so bugged and dragged by every single detail that depresses, but with caution and love though, to press into all of God’s capacity. The cross of Christ has to be worth more. Can we learn from ants, lilies, sparrows? What is God saying that He has not said, and how can we be reminded to treasure each reminder for our good? Amen.
Merry Christmas wishes. I have attached a picture of me I took few days ago this December 2024. I hope it brings you joy if it can. I meant to capture my 40th birthday from about 9months ago in March. Not quite my once 16yr old kind of walk to a studio, but reminded to be thankful for memories. In a most personable way, please remember me in your prayers, that the spiritual riches and earthly mercies and miracles of Christ be mine.
Today I must say I am humbled by the grace of God at work in others who love and honour Him. Mightily. Truly all glory to God.
I trust God that in this season a sign will be given to see God’s direction towards us today.
God bless.
Evangelist Israel Okunwaye
