It is Here My Lord

I wake  up in the middle of the night,the silence,the calmness and the awesome feeling one gets when everything is cool.A verse keeps on  coming to my mind now and then,i cant trace where it is excatly in the bible but atleast im conversant with it.No bundles to google,i cant call a friend whom i know is soo good in memorising bible verses and a gain,who calls people at  one AM for such an issue?unless its really important,an emergency we say.

2017 has been a great year.Yes,great is ambiguous.its had all sorts of issues from good to bad,moments of celebration as well as mourning,days of total silence as well as days when you talk,talk,and before you exhaust ur saliva,sleep catches up with you.Oh an year whereby politics have left quite a number of us mouths wide open,others didnt want to even watch news because really,at some point it didnt make sense.A year where prophecies were given including some fake ones which you didnt need an interpreter to tell you that clearly,'hapa mtu anatuchezea tu".

The most amazing and humbling experience ive heard this year has taught me love.At a personal level,its been a season whereby ive visited the hospital for quite a number of times since i came to this world.Generally not being ill but doing something constructive.I noted something that awed me.Anytime a sick person is discharged from hospital,especially the paediatric wards,the mothers wish each other quick recovery,the kids hug their friends(whom they met there and are leaving there)and they pray together.Children generally has a way of doing things that will really touch your heart.Its usually a moment of happiness to the one leaving hospital as well as despair to those who are left.Which point am i driving at?Love is the most amazing thing that you can give to someone.That tenderness of making another feel important,cherished and valued.Theres an instance that almostt made me tear,the kid being discharged is around four years,waving goodbye to an year old kid.Purely these two do not even talk because one is learning to speak and the other one is quite grown,but the way they hug,say sweet things irrespective of whether there will be response gives you such a feeling that cant be expressed not only in words but in writing.Choose to love.

The year could be so different to you compared to many other years but look here dear one,the fact that you are still breathing is an assurance that God is not yet done with you.Perhaps the lord has been speaking to you through a situation or that season that you are in yet you havent realised or even understood.

Remember that God speaks in one way or in another but men do not perceive(job 33;14-18).Could be its your time of visitation but ur soo busy to even take note?could it be ur soo happy such that you  fail to see the larger picture?what could be God speaking to you through that season?Be careful not to be ignorant.

I want to appreaciate all of you family that take their precious time out of their busy schedules to check out on my blog.Im eternally greatful dear ones.It humbles me when someone asks,"na mbona hujaandika kitu hii month?"That really tells me that someone is following.its really a humbling experience when someone inboxes you to just say that they are inspired..Thank you so much for even sharing,all glory to jesus.

As we go for the christmas holidays,allow me to talk to you concerning "speaking out".

You heard me right!There are times we ought to go the silence way,but then,words got immense power.Written words and spoken  words are totally different.You could be going through issues such that you cant even  talk.When you purpose to pray,the much you can do is cry!Darling,im with you on this.im not exempted also,but as we close over to 2018,as for me and all that pertains me,im purposing to be a person who will speak.In this regard,choosing words wisely as well as going direct to the point.Yes,no longer beating around the bush!

Been wondering,when the lord tells us to open our mouths and He will fill them,what exactly does He mean?(psalm 81;10)Does it mean that when ur mouth is shut,nothing can be put inside?How about when he tells us to "declare ye a thing and it shall be established?"(job 22;28)Can someone make declarations or decrees on a shut mouth?Think of the blind Bartimaeus.Suppose this man never shouted,could he receive his eyesight?Remember there were people pushing him to keep quiet but he chose to shout even more...Whose fault would it be if he chose to be silent?

The lord knows what we are going through,he knows an end of a season and a beggining of another.He can tell you what will  happen to you  in july 2018 before you even know it.please note that im not diminishing the power of God through dreams and visions and even in prophecies but in this regard,i want us to look at how speaking to God can change our situations.Being very honest before the king of kings and leaving our hearts naked to the author and finisher of our faith.This God who calls things that are not as thou they are,our shield and the lifter of our heads.

⁵ As one of them was cutting down a tree, the iron axehead fell into the water. “Oh no, my lord!” he cried out. “It was borrowed!”

⁶ The man of God asked, “Where did it fall?” When he showed him the place, Elisha cut a stick and threw it there, and made the iron float. ⁷ “Lift it out,” he said. Then the man reached out his hand and took it.(2nd kings 6;5-7)This story has been encouraging me so much.This was a company of prophets who decided to enlarge a place that seemed to be smal for them.They decided to go cut treees and the bible says that as they were cutting,one of them lost his axe.It was a borrowed axe and it fell on the river.Look how this person was honest.

1.The axe was borrowed

2.He showed the exact place that the axe had fallen to.

This guy didn't beat around the bush,he was clear on what he was saying .The bible says that Elisha just cut a stick,pointed on the axe and immediately it float. Iam perplexed at the levels honesty and being open can take us.This guy didn't shy off from saying that this axe was borrowed,somehow,it could be an embarrassment,but beyond that,he expresses himself and goes ahead to show the exact position that the axe fell.

Could be the whole of this year you have found it as an embarrassment to tell God what has been eating you?Perhaps you have gone through stuff in life and you feel so  small presenting the same to the throne of grace?Is it an issue with finances,job,relationships and you feel like God will judge you when you come clean to him and tell him God,im struggling with being honest or Lord,i need such kind of a job?

The lord loves you so much and look here,before you even feel embarrassed,He already knows it.All he wants from you is to tell him Lord,the axe fell here.

What is your axe?Is it debts?unforgiveness?marriage issues?lack of a child?You have overstayed in this mountain for so long dear one,take it to the lord in prayer.Say it just as it is and leave it to God.He knows how to deal with it.He is God all by Himself.Is there anything too difficult with God?(Jer 32;17).

We still have afew days left to the close of the year.Theres so much grace at the cross of jesus.Shut urself up in your own closet,pull achair and have the lord seat.Open ur heart and your mouth to him.Speak out issues that have deprived you sleep for so long.Issues that have made you cry time and again,issues that you cant even share with a friend.He is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.The beauty of it is that God wont broadcast ur issues...oh no..neither is he a respector of persons.He must prioritize ur issues because ur his business.You are Gods agenda..the very reason he sent his son Jesus to die for all of us.The task is simple,we only need to open our mouths and he will fill them.

"liseme,litaje,kwani ni jambo lipi hilo yeye asilo liweza?"

Identify what ur axe is

speak up

carry on without a baggage of issues

learn to love

laugh always

Happy holidays,much love and God bless
