Committed?


Hi guys, it's a new week, I hope we are refreshed. Let's buckle up and be prepared. 

Esther 2:21
In those days, while Mordecai sat in the king's gate, two of the king's chamberlains, Bigthan and Teresh, of those which kept the door, were wroth, and sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus.

So I'll share more than a Bible verse today so as to drive home my point, we know Brother Mordecai and what he did, what I observed was that his post was at the king's gate, he found out about the conspiracy against the king's life and he reported it, he saved the king's life and was only acknowledged by a book.

Yet this guy was consistent, he kept his post at the King's gate, he didn't think of the great deed he did for the King, he didn't feel under appreciated, he didn't complain or protest, he just always woke up and went to the Kings gate. 

Esther 6:11-12
Then took Haman the apparel and the horse, and arrayed Mordecai, and brought him on horseback through the street of the city, and proclaimed before him, Thus shall it be done unto the man whom the king delighteth to honour.
And Mordecai came again to the king's gate. But Haman hasted to his house mourning, and having his head covered.

What stands out to me is that after the King now remembered Uncle Mordy's deed, and you know they honored him, my uncle went back to the King's gate like nothing happened. His total commitment to his service was undeniable, he didn't after the parade go about making mouth. He didn't go and declare to his people what had happened, immediately they were through with the parade or march he went back to the King's gate. I'm sure he was qualified to enter into the palace but he stayed at the gate, his post and went on serving. 

So now my question is how committed are we, exactly what have we done that's so great in our eyes and we feel we need to be rewarded. Serve with a bit of sense today (selflessly), we are not too big for any level of service. Just because I'm High Priestess Icequeen doesn't make me too big to sweep the floor of the church.

I think I've typed a bit too much, please bear with me.
God bless you as you follow Uncle Mordy's commitment to service

Hey guys, good day. Hope your day was splendid? “But Ruth said, “Do not urge me to leave you or to turn back from following you; for where you go, I will go, and where you lodge, I will lodge. Your people will be my people, and your God, my God.” ‭‭RUTH‬ ‭1:16‬ ‭AMP‬‬ So I know I wrote in Ruth a few days ago but my attention was drawn to Naomi. I mean there must have been some qualities in Naomi that made Ruth determined to follow her. Imagine how endearing Naomi had made her God seem to Ruth for Ruth to have wanted to serve Him. I have to commend Naomi on spreading the gospel so much that her daughter in law was willing and ready to forsake her childhood gods and her way of life just to be with an old woman. I've wondered what was it about that old woman, as in understand that both Ruth and Orpah were unwilling to leave Naomi. She had nothing to offer but I'm quite sure she had invested a lot into them. Now the question is what are we investing into people, how endear

Hypocritical Hypocrites!

  Buenos días amigos ha pasado mucho tiempo , anyways sha it's great to be back. James 1:22-23 Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror. I know how a lot of us go about in Word Conferences and be shouting "Hmm Rhema!" upandan, biko don't get annoyed but all the Rhema you've been getting what have you used it for exactly? Abi you are now a keeper that all you do is catch Rhema, without retaining possession of the Rhema you've received. The truth is that if we've put into practice all the Rhema we've received then we would have become better Christians. I know someone is thinking that 'not all Rhema is for me', but wait, if the Rhema was not for you, why were you shouting Rhema in our ears depriving some of us from even hearing what the Rhema was. I remember joining a group about sharing the

Commitment 4?

Committed 4? Okay so the holidays are over and tomorrow we resume our serious lives. May the death of Christ put to death all our nasty habits and may the resurrection of Christ birth new and good ones in our lives. Ruth 4:13 So Boaz took Ruth, and she was his wife: and when he went in unto her, the Lord gave her conception, and she bare a son. Madam Ruth is my case study today, I just love this babe oh. To think of the tragedy that befell her, because when we speak of Ruth we only do justice to Naomi's devastation and we are quick to forget that Ruth also had a tragedy on her hands. She lost a husband to whom she bore no child for. Yet she just decided that she loved her mother in law so much and she'll happily serve her mother in law. She had no husband expectations but she resisted leaving like her sister in law and stayed with Naomi. She was like if na to chop indomie or if na to soak garri then let's go.  She was also endeared to Naomi's God an
