He Always Holds His Own Side of the Bargain

 He always holds His own side of the bargain

. Always! It is us who always fails to hold our own side of the bargain . The one who keeps His covenant with day and with Night. His covenant is not hinged on times or seasons. Nor is it deterred by circumstances or principles of time or principalities. His covenant is forever ( Psalms 111:9). He’s the Lord who never changes(Malachi3:6). All things would change but he remains unchangeable. He is intentional about us. Scratch that! Let me speak about myself. He is intentional about me Tolulope. The wheel of providence revolves but its axle is eternal love.

I started keeping journals from age 9 and most times I just scribble my thoughts. The last time I went home I saw my old book . Every heart desires written down over the years has been mindfully answered. Even some that I don’t remember. And then He reminds me of how he always keeps His own end of the bargain and how I don’t keep mine (LOrd forgive me). And so I have resolved to mindfully, prayerfully, consciously to keep my own side of the bargain because He has proven again and again that He is dependable, loving and immutable.

Will the keeper of our yesterdays, todays and our tomorrows not keep us? Some prayers may not have been answered but my goodness! So many prayers were answered known and unknown!

Let us praise Him for all our seasons because we know He will keep us through all seasons of life. 2024 is around the corner. Let us praise Him regardless of our circumstances or situations.

He ALWAYS keeps His own Side of the Bargain.

Happy New month. We will see 2024 and beyond in Jesus name! All mountains will be made low and all valleys will be raised up.

Brothers Keeper

Hmmm God is good! God is good! Thank God we don't look like what we go through. I look back memory lane and I thank God for the lessons God put me through. I'm learning day by day not to really worry about tomorrow but put all chips on the table in his arms and well fan it with prayers and patient. I’m learning more on how to sometimes put my issues aside and be my sister and brother’s keeper.

 

Few months ago I had to go for an appointment and when I got there I was a little bit upset because I was kept waiting longer than usual .when the lady that was to attend to me came in to take my details, I was busy looking at her appearance.one her hair was not neat, she had a lil soil on her shrub...Within me I was almost saying I won't allow this lady to touch me(God forgive me).But then we got talking and she asked me my educational background and I told her(you see she thought I was a college student lol) and then she told me how her son who was a student at one of the Ivy League university was "stressed".(well you know we Nigerians term stress as maybe fatigue )I didn't really understand her until she said he had to stop school because he kept seeing things. She asked if I believe prayers could heal him as he has been given so many medications but it still reoccurs. She said she remembered way back when she was much younger how one of her Aunty was healed of the same issue through prayers but it's been years, she stepped foot at church and she doesn't really know where to start from.

 

My people I didn't know when I started crying! I told her God can do it! I told her how I was so ill back at 2002 and how my grandma would pray all night till 6am at my bedside. I told her how doctors couldn't find a cure but doctor Jesus healed me! I told her she brought the child forth not through her power but that the same God that made her bring forth the child through blood and sweat can still make all things possible!

 

I learnt a lesson that day. While I was thinking about her appearances, I didn't know the battles she's going through. I got her number but sadly I didn't get back to her. I pray God should show up strong and mighty for her. Just as this old year is coming to an end, may the battles we fought this year never come into the new year with us! I pray our destiny will never be cut short in Jesus name! Thank God for the scars, the lessons and the victories. We will see 2017 and beyond in Jesus name!

 

I wrote this in 2016 and I’m just getting to post some of my journals

Happy New Month

The streams of living water are not dried up by the parching heats of sultry midsummer any more than they were frozen by the cold winds of blustering winter.  

The seasons change but God never changes. The Lord abides forever and the streams of His love are as deep, as broad and as full as ever. 

The heats of business cares and scorching trials make me need the cooling influences of the river of His grace; I may go at once and drink to the full from the inexhaustible fountain, for in summer and in winter it pours forth its flood.
 
The upper springs are never scanty, and blessed be the name of the Lord, the nether springs cannot fail either.
 
Elijah found Cherith dry up, but Jehovah was still the same God of providence.
 
Job said his brethren were like deceitful brooks, but he found his God an overflowing river of consolation.
 
The Nile is the great confidence of Egypt, but its floods are variable; our Lord is evermore the same.
 
By turning the course of the Euphrates, Cyrus took the city of Babylon, but no power, human or infernal, can divert the current of divine grace.
 
The tracks of ancient rivers have been found all dry and desolate, but the streams which take their rise on the mountains of divine sovereignty and infinite love shall ever be full to the brim.
 
Generations melt away, but the course of grace is unaltered. 
 
“Men may come, and men may go, but our God go on forever.”
 
Rejoice, O my soul, for God in His infinite mercy spared me to testify of the faithfulness of the Lord. 
 
Happy New Month

ME

 I'm not going to Chase You

I'm not going to sit here and Prove my Worth

I'm not going to try to manipulate you to believe that I am better than anybody else.

I know that I am.

I know that I'm the Prize.

And it's not in an egotistical way, it's just I know what I've been through and I know what I've healed.

And I know what my value is.

If you come into my life-That's a BLESSING!

If I allow you the opportunity to see parts of me that I don't show everybody..That's a Blessing!

If I want you to be a part of my life-It's for a REASON.

I don't just sit here and talk to everybody

I don't waste my time because my time is PRECIOUS.

If you are of value to me. I would hope to be a value to you.

And if not, just let me know,And we don't have to waste each other's time.

Tomorrows

None of us can change what we were, where we were, or whose we were before, but it is important to understand that God who knows our deepest secret. He has already searched the skeleton in our closets and still loves us. It is the uncertainty of the future that causes the heart of men to seek a God who can see where men's frail eyes are too weak to venture. Who can see tomorrow but the One who holds tomorrow in His hands?

New Horizons

Long time no see my blog. It's been seven years now since I took a break from my passion. Now I'm back looking unto the author and finisher of my faith. Lord it's so hard. I'm vulnerable. Help me to know the wolves in sheep clothings. I want a home that is built on the foundation that you God has ordained. A man who will love me, care for me, treat me like a Queen and ultimately a man who loves you Lord.  I'm putting all aspects of my life into your hands Lord. I know you will perfect all that concerns me. On my part, help me to serve You the way you want me to serve you. Sanctify me and make me holy for you day by day. Amen
