God has you where He wants you

Have you ever wondered if you were at the right place?  Do you worry about positioning yourself so that you can gain that promotion, or position yourself so you can attract that business or that "Mr. Right" or “Miss Right“? I have good news for you: God's got right where He wants you

"Now God has us where he wants us, with all the time in this world and the next to shower grace and kindness upon us in Christ Jesus."
(Eph.2.7 MSG)

He has you where He wants you. It may not be a pleasant place right now but know that He always has your best interest no matter what.

I can imagine Joseph in prison after he had interpreted the butler's dream and was looking forward to being released. (See Gen:40) But God has other plans. He has Joseph just where He wanted him.

What about the three Hebrew boys? (see Dan:3) About to be cast into the furnace of fire. I imagine other believers standing in the gap interceding that they are released. But God says not before they have seen that even in the fire, He is still God and that He is God over the fire. And that when He says He'll be with you in the fire, you'll understand what exactly He means.

I don't know what you are going through right now but one thing I know is that God's got you right where He wants you so that He would "shower grace and kindness upon you in Christ Jesus." So God locks you in a place where He wants you so that you don't miss His grace and kindness. God has you where He wants you.

Good day,
And have a great day today,

What's in a name?

What's in a name?  "He named him Noah, saying, "This one will give us a break from the hard work of farming the ground that GOD cursed." (Gen.5.29)  Names have prophetic attributes in them. When a thing is named, the name defines what it does and what it cannot do. When a person is named, his future is foretold, especially when the persons parents are in tune with the agenda of God. But that person has to work to bring that prophecy to reality.  John the baptist was a case in point when the wrong name would have been given. If the parent had not listened and obeyed God's instruction but instead bow to family and societal pressure.  "And his mother answered and said, Not so; but he shall be called John." (Luke.1.60)  Another example is Benjamin, the second son from the loved-wife of Jacob. As the mother was dying from the pain of childbirth, he called the child Benoni but his father says not so, he shall be called Benjamin  "With her las

Jesus is the answer to the sin problem

Jesus is the answer to the sin problem  "When he served as a sacrifice for our sins, he solved the sin problem for good--not only ours, but the whole world's". (1John.1.2 MSB) When Adam and Eve sinned in the Garden of Eden, the sin passed through them to all men. And so the Bible recorded that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.  "Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:" (Rom.5.12)  But that was just the beginning of the story. Sin entered the world, and death came as a result of sin. It appears that mankind was doomed.  But Jesus came and served the punishment for sin and in so doing, He solved the sin problem for good. Now mankind has access once again to the Father. Now everything the Father has for us is at our disposal. Now we can reign by Jesus Christ and receive the abundance that God has for us.  "For if by one man's offence death reigned b

Who makes me who I am

An Isoko adage says, "the name you call yourself is what others will call you. Meeting students, I have had cause to ask them if that was the name their parents named them and they say no. My real name is...and then they tell me. But whatever they call themselves is what other students call them. You are who you say you are, but the truth is, you act the way you become because you think that's who you are. So if you called yourself a policeman when you are a soldier, you will act as a policeman. If you are an eagle but call yourself a chicken, then you will act like a chicken. If you call yourself a failure, that's what you begin to act as. Little wonder, Jabez changed his name in the place of prayer, he declared that he is blessed and God granted his prayers. (see 1Chro:4:9-10). The way you act is a deep-seated product of who you think you are and who you think you are is a product of who you call yourself. What do you call yourself? Who are you? "What
