Jeremiah 29:11
"For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord,"plans to prosper you and not to harm you,plans to give you hope and a future."
God says,"For I".He does not say "For they"!
Your life is governed by divine destiny not destructive destiny-God's purpose for your life weighs far more than the hideous intentions of your foes!
Plans you cannot now comprehend,have been strategicaly put in place-They are not subject to man's approval!
God's purpose for your life is deeper than any pain you may have experienced in the pit of self pity and shame!
These plans are one dimensional,i.e:
*They are designed to form your content and later inform your context!
*They are designed to ensure that no harm,human/demonic befalls you!
*They are designed to create,facilitate and sustain your progress!
*They are designed to reveal and prepare you for your divine assignment!
Live within God's purpose for your life,stop being bound by the bonds of visionlessness and apathy!
Your reason for living is deeper than the trials the enemy has thrown your way!
God's plans for you are not resolutions but objectives!
Covenant bound and promise secured,your life is not a series of accidental occurences-every blessing is deliberate!
Today,reconsider your reason for living,in relation to the divine plans that God has for your life!
Blessings

Beyond the portals of logic
Dear Friends
In a world ever changing,defined by inconsistency and spiritual lethargy-Briefly consider this passage:
Hebrews 11:6
"But without faith it is impossible to please Him..."
Faith infiltrates the dimension of impossibility,it ventures into thresholds previously unoccupied by logic.
Yet without faith,our lives rotate around the axis of routine and fear.Dreams perish and life becomes governed by a habitual state of visionlessness.
Without faith,what is tangible and material speaks louder than what is divine and eternal-Locked up in despair,we define ourselves by what is on us,rather than in us.
Faith turns impracticalities into achievables,doubt and despair are rendered impotent at the hands of faith.
Yet without faith,we may never please God!
I challenge you today to stop living a life of perpetual and consistent defeat!
Get your house in order!
Exercise faith as a daily tool not just a pseudo spiritual tendency!
This year,reconstruct the broken walls of your:
*Family
*Finances
*Relationships
*Health
*Work
*Education
Use faith to live an extraordinarily Spirit led life-Let this day usher you into a new season,a season of living "beyond the portals of logic"!
You may not academicaly explain your desires,they may seem illogical,but faith operates where logic dares not tread!
Often we let fear rule over faith,our lives become marred by social insecurity because they are defined by spiritual inconsistency!
Start living by faith and let your spouse see an improved you this year,let your children find comfort in knowing that they have a parent who finds comfort in God!
May God bless you!

Of Empty buckets and Resourceful wells!
Consider Solomon's words:
Proverbs 20:5
"The purposes of a man's heart are deep waters,but a man of understanding draws them out."
Anyone can look into a well full of water,but only those equipped with buckets can draw the water out.Anyone can look at life from the convenience of a bird's eye view,but only the empowered can fly down and become an active part of their daily living.
You can only draw out water from a well if you have capacity-That capacity is provided by your bucket,however even the bucket itself cannot draw out all the water at the same time.
Life requires you to find a bucket,big enough only to fill your purposes in relation to the capacity your bucket can carry!
Find the well that keeps your dreams,goals and desires-Move from being an observer and assume the position of a doer-With your bucket in your hands and a tight rope-You can draw out of life,the necessities,imperatives and critical resources needed to fill your life with meaning and substance!
1:Every well keeps water-But the water is far more essential than the container that keeps it-Stop admiring the container,begin to see value in the content.
2:You will need capacity to draw out your goals-A bucket,not a teaspoon,will help capacitate your vision!
3:Your heart is not bottomless-Nor will you find an unlimited well:Consequently, learn to master the restrictions of your desires-dream within the confines of possibility.It is no use to dream of possessing the whole ocean when all you have is a bucket that can barely fill a basin!
4:Understanding is the bucket that draws out your goals and aspirations-Without understanding,you become foolish and convenient in areas where you should employ strategy and reason!
God bless you.

Purpose,Power,Provision and Vision
Philippians 4:13
"I can do all things through Him who strengthens me"
No birth is accidental or merely for the sake of filling one more digit on a government census!
For every birth there is a divine purpose greater than the method through which the birth became possible.With purpose is needed the power to realise and fulfill it,in conjunction with the divine provision needed to materialize vision.
Without God directing your footsteps,you become a victim of circumstances and always at the receiving end of negative consequences!
For everyone who feels that they are not able,find your purpose and through it you will be enabled only if you are willing to disable all the necessary cables that connnect you to a weak source of power.
Education,money and fame are all good and well,but without your divine purpose you succeed at being what you have not been called to be-Consequently the blessings you have turn into curses because emotionally they leave you incomplete and yearning for meaning and direction!
Find your purpose and accesse the divine power platform to be enabled to bring the due provision to materialize your vision.

The battlefield is waiting Part 2
1 Samuel 17:33
"Saul replied,"You are not able to go against this Philistine and fight him,for you are still a youth,and he a man of war from his youth"
Saul uttered these words to a sheepish looking David.
Saul was indeed correct-David was not able......but God was.
When we are not able,God makes us capable only if we are willing to be available.David became capable only because he was available.
Avail yourself this day and let God enable you to stand before giants that view you as incapable of victory.
There are many Sauls today,who tell you what you are capable and not capable of doing-who judge you based on how you look and how heavy you weigh,today God wants to refocus your coordinates.
Shift you from being undermined and tolerated,to being respected and celebrated!
Do not worry about your capabilities,just ensure your absolute availability-God will take it from there.
Go,you little David,for the battlefield awaits your arrival.
Evangelist N Buthelezi

The Battlefield is waiting!
1 Samuel 17
When was the last time you faced your Giant?
Often we have a tendency of running away from our Giants!David shows us that Giants fall at the feet of those who fall at the feet of God!
He did not need a sword nor did he utilize a shield-With a simple staff in his hand,a bag of stones and a sling,History was made at a battle where the unexpected became the evident and the expected became the tested!
Go and face your giant!
Are you suffering from Alcoholism?Drug abuse?Pornography?Fornication?
There is hope for those who live on their knees when the rest live on their feet!
The battlefield is waiting for you to face your Giant,but you cannot face what you refuse to confront!
Goliath made History not by being big and fearsome but by being the only Giant to fall at the sandals of a keeper of sheep!
God will use things greater than you,to reveal the depth of potential inherent within you!
The battle is the Lord's and He will deliver your Giant into your hands-Take heart,the best is yet to come!

Standing when all else seems to be falling.
No man can fail to get up,without first failing to stay up!People fail to get up simply because they first failed to stay up.If your feet are firmly grounded,there will be no reason for you to use your hands in attempts to get up,once fallen.However,the grace of God is such that it works best in those who are failing to get up,without condemning them for failing to stay up.If you have experienced a moral failure,you can find a new position,only by exposing your condition.No patient can experience healing if they continually seek to run away from the physician.Your fall will be completed by incomplete prayers.Your refusal to pray is the fuel that speeds up your inability to get up!Do you feel overwhelmed by your failure?Do you feel depressed by publicly known faults?Guess what my friend?There is plenty of room at the Cross,where you can find new meaning and zest for life,a place where you can stand firm and confident,when all else seems to be crumbling,in a world that is uncertain,there is certainty only in Christ Jesus.Are you a struggling alcoholic?Serial fornicator?Consistent drug user?Do not allow yourself to bury yourself,rather let self die by unselfishly giving your hopeless life into the hands of a God that can reshape you and grant you access to the peace of mind your weakness prevented you from experiencing.
1:Staying on your feet requires you to daily fall on your knees,if you do not fall on your knees in prayer,you are bound to fall on your destiny in shame!
2:When you have fallen into failure,do not neglect to pray-prayer will pick you up in a time when no one wants to lay their hands on you!
3:God is considered about your willingness to get up more than people are considered about your failure to stay up!
Lastly,let us consider a biblical text to get some strength for daily Living.
Jude 1:24
"Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling,and to present you faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy,To God our Saviour,who alone is wise,be glory and majesty,dominion and power,both now and forever more-Amen"
Take heart,God loves you and there is nothing you can do about it!
