No sign, but there shall be rain

If christ is not in the tomb He should be in you. He should emanate from you quite obviously to the world you encounter. You are in the mechanics of God so don't let anyone underestimate you.
Women are carriers of divine destiny. Because even God Himself had to come through the womb of a woman. So if you hate women you are the most despicable being on earth.
2 kings 3:17

Some people have rejected you because they can't see the value of you so they don't want to invest in, but God has added value in you if you have faith and before they know it, you have excelled beyond their grasp because God is on the way to exalt you! Because the rejected stone has now become the chief cornerstone whom without everything would crumble. Don't forget about the God Factor!
Psalm 121:1,2
Phil 3:4

God will not promise anything and not do it. Because He has said it, He has a divine obligation to fulfil it for He is bound by His word!
When you pray don't be selfish to show off or for yourself, do so for God eg instead of heal me so I can work say heal me for your glory Lord as you need me to spread your gospel etc. Don't look at someone's current situation and reject them based on that, you don't know what God has in store for that person. Because God is the only one to remove that 20tonne stone to the tomb of depression, financial issues, illness. God has removed it, He has done what limits men and removed that heaviness.
When it rains, the rain must find a seed.

The keys of the kingdom

Matt 16:17,19

A lot of us want to improve in our lives but we don't want to improve ourselves. To improve your life you must improve every aspect of your life ie health, weight, mind, ambition.
Like marriage you must be prepared for it like learn to cook, to compromise, to open ourselves to be loved and to love, sacrifice etc. Do not have a narrow minded mindset where we only think of ourselves and what we want, but how you can serve as well.

The problem with Christians is that we're trying to use one key to open every door in the house, the gate key is different to the car key is different to the door key is different to the office key is different to the desk key etc. God has given us the keys of the heavens so we may open the kingdoms of the earth. But we are stuck in one room.

If you want to get married you cannot only use the key of prayer, you must also use the key of character : check the way you talk, the way you act/respond, how you manage your answer.
Heaven operates by faith, God does not get touched by your appeals but by your faith. Giving is another key in the kingdom of heaven but many are prayerful in chur g but don't know how to give. If you want financial breakthrough, you don't just pray for it, you have to sow a seed too. You cannot just pray to get the prosperity of the Lord. The church will not just grow by prayer you must tell people as well. We need to stop hiding behind prayer as an excuse. You're prayerful yet your life has not changed to the way you want. The 1st key is that of faith,then prayer, then praise, then worship.
Heb 4:1-2

The unbelievers are wiser than the children of light because they give all their money and have faith in what they spend, how much more a child of God??
Dont wait to suffer before you become obedient to God because you will miss your blessing.

Making Impact in your life

1 chron 12:32 (23-32)
Matt 5:14-16

The heads/captains were 200, which means there were more than 200 people in the group.
You must have an understanding of season/time you are living in. Have a duty mind set as to the task set,be ready to work. Know what is expected of you- your purpose in the Lord. And pray that you have influence and the impact you have on people that it be a Godly one. Like the people of the tribe of Isaachar.

A life of impact begins with a sense of mission and discovery of purpose. It is the discovery and pursuit of vision that enables you to make an impact. If you want your life to have impact focus it; goals are dreams with deadlines. So write a mission /purpose statement as everything will focus around that which will focus you and put you on a clearer path that will build a legacy.

But it all takes a strong character to follow through. So beware that the vision does not take you where your character may not be able to sustain you. Character is developed and revealed through test and life is a series if tests. Not all characters are good. For character is a very strong ingredient for making Impact in your life.
Impact/character = vision +time+purpose
You can't be part of the answer if you don't accept that you are also part of the problem. We must be self aware as that leads to pure clarity.

The power to your destiny is inside of you. Don't seek for it in the outside. Examine and validate yourself and your purpose will be revealed to you.

Don't concentrate or fixate on your past. It has happened and can't be changed, vut how your future turns out depends on your focus,purpose,timing, vision, impact which all builds from your character. So let your light shine so be responsible for yourself. For you hold the keys to your life, ask for guidance so that you may use the right key to open the right door and let the glorious light of Christ shine through you and people see God's love through your life

Purpose being revealed

2 Tim 1:8-10
Gal 1:15,16
Rom 12:3

Failure is natural,  the more you can realise that failure is natural, fight against it as it is usually driven by fear.

We all have faith, whether we we believe in God or not. But as a Christian our faith is ignited -kicked into gear, activated. The pursuit of destiny is vision plus purpose. Why? Calls for purpose
Where? Calls for direction where we need God to direct our path
What? Calls for duty/method/task
When? Calls for timing all these simplify life/destiny in God.

Vision simplified
1.You cannot go where you cannot see. Eg. Eagle &
The power ahead of you is greater than the power in your past. But you're moved but what you focus on. So focus on what lies ahead of us. Like an eagle soaring high in the clouds can still see tiny prey moving in the brush. We must have that sort of vision and focus. In order to pursue your destiny, let go of the past and let God take hold of your life.
2.The further you can see the further you can go.
3. Be fast to see
4. Be sure of where you're going ie. Know where you're going. Because regardless of how fast you can move, you shan't get there if you don't know where it is you're going/what your vision is.

Vision has a lot to do with perspective you regard what you see/happening in your life, will determine the decisions you make in your life. Because to pursue,  is to make a choice.

To move onto greatness you need to accept yourself and be grateful to God for who you are. But knowing where you're going without knowing the purpose isn't good enough. We need to be stationed in the right place for purpose comes before objects. Ie God created a place before He created people.

Isa 43:18
Mark 3:14
Calling is not commissioned. You may receive the call to serve God, but He may not yet have commissioned you a purpose/mission. You need to conceive and grow your vision before it is /can be 'delivered'.
Ephe 2:10

Lord I want you to make me into what you intended me to be.

Eccles 3:1
There are times to endure and tines to enjoy.
Psalm 139:13-16

Revelation of God to our purpose

Luke 12:13-21
Job 1:1

We need to strive to be like Job, whose description starts with being a faithful child of God. Not his riches, not his accolades, but his faithfulness and righteousness.  Same as Solomon. He was richer than David but he was more revered for his reverence to God first and foremost before all things.

If your purpose is to glorify God, all else shall fall into place. Because a revelation of God is a revelation of purpose.

Eccles 2:1-11
Gen 37:1-11
        39:2

Even Cain

Gen 4:1-17

Refusing to be the same, as the past, as your friends,as your siblings, as your parents. Believe that you will do better!

Be like Abel,  no-one is watching don't do it to impress others but God alone. Something amazing will come from you,whether you're the eldest sacrificed child or the youngest beloved has an easier ride child; with God,something amazing will come out from you.

If you want to blessed,it is in your own hands. You cannot rely on someone else to push you to your destiny. Do what is right by listening to God, sin is right there waiting to fill you with doubt, discouragement and devour you. Master it, with God's help you can master sin.  There was no witness to Cain killing his younger brother Abel, but Abel's blood was screaming to God, Abel's generous and selfless offering brought him closer and closer to God always.

God takes up the battle for His children and He cursed Cain in his body himself and anything he touches.
But God showed even Cain mercy that anyone who tried to kill Cain for what he's done or just because he is so so remorseless about killing his own brother,they would suffer 7 times worse Cain's punishment!!
Marriage is a gift, even Cain- who is an murderer,not a Christian,  hiding from God, yet he was blessed, with a wife, a child and riches as only the rich can build a house or estate. Cain was building a city!!
(there is a theory that Cain and Abel were twins)

But we are blessed for we are sitting in the presence of God!

God is with you always

Number 14:1

Don't let seemingly unanswered prayers be the cause if discouragement. Be like Elijah who prayed over 7 tines for rain and kept checking

1 Kings 18:41-43
Job 3:1-4,11-13

Job's soul was in anguish, he had done nothing wrong, lived a seemingly righteous life. But even through his anguish and discouragement, he still seeks the Lord even though he wished he was never born due to losing his loved ones. Job 23:1-11

When you cannot find God, know that He is carrying you.
James 5:17
1 kings 19:2-8

God always fed Elijah in his time of need, by sending a fellow brethren, or birds but when we are in anguished despair,  so low; God himself sustains us personally
Isa 43:1
Matt 11:28-30

Don't be discouraged, vut be encouraged for God is always with you.
