My Task

My task is to do what the day demands" a wise man once said. Tasks are an everyday challenge, well challenge may not be the right word but it will suffice. The task is the chores that cumulate into what the total of our lives become. Therefore, take your task seriously, attend to the most important task first, second most important ones next, keeping first things first.

Before the task is carried out in the open, very wise people know that there is first a behind the scene plan that takes place. It is not surprising then we first see God working behind the scenes.

"My task is to bring out in the open and make plain what God, who created all this in the first place, has been doing in secret and behind the scenes all along."(Eph.3.9)

This was a tag-team between God and the Apostle Paul. He was bringing out in the open what God was doing or did secretly behind the scenes. What God has been doing behind the scenes in the first place - so behind the scenes come before the bringing out task in the open.

Your life may not be on display right now, there may be areas of your life you are not able to even look at because it seems despicable, but I can assure you that God is working secretly behind the scenes to put your life on display for His glory.

It may not be your plan, but dig yourself in and do what the day demands of you - your task. Carry it out with equanimity, put your best foot forward even if it does not seem to amount to much. There is a God Who is working secretly behind the scenes of your life Who can merge the mess of your life against your task and come out with an amazing message. What is your task? What the day demands!

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
