Enlargement


Yeah I love Thursdays because I will have my cell group meeting on Thursday nights...it just feels good once again to be in the house of God and to fellowship with my cell group members...they are really one bunch of great people here! :D

The message today was on "Enlargement". Remember the miracle that Jesus did about feeding the 5,000 men? One of the reasons why some of our lives are not being enlarged is because we never admit that we have a need. We never tell God what we need from Him when we have a problem. Another reason is that we don't take ownership for our problems. This is also why we never tell God what we need because people believe the source of the problems they are facing does not come from them. Thirdly, many of us do not have faith in God to trust Him enough to solve our problems for us. Because of all these reasons, many of us give ourselves excuses that we cannot do this or that well enough and so our lives are not being enlarged. This is just not true!

In order for us to have our lives enlarged, we have to do something about it as well. Don't ever expect God will give us success like they are dropped from heaven. We need to trust God and give Him the access to what we already have in our hands. This simply also means to give all that we have to the Lord. Take this as a reality check for ourselves: we see what we already have in our hands and think of what we still need. This can also be a test that God give us to see how much we trust in Him. He wants us to trust Him with our seeds in order to give what we need.

We also need to admit to God that we have a need for Him and address our problem to Him. In fact, most of them even before we told God about our problems, you know He already has a solution for us? Just that He wants us to simply trust Him to tell him ourselves before He will tell us this solution. Think of in reality, don't you tell your problems to friends you trust to and seek them to help you?

Not only to admit our needs, we also need to give God what we have because we must remember that God loves cheerful and willing givers. Give Him what we have when we are still young. The pattern of God's response is always to take what we gave to Him and He will then do miracles for us. And then after giving what we have, we should expect God to multiply it. Bear in mind that nobody listen to poor man and you got to learn to represent yourself well so people will come and follow. Poverty is a curse...Prosperity is a blessing.

"Just cherish what you have now for you will never get to go back to what you have now...and I love my family E240 more and more each day...yeah! :)"
