Are you Willing to Change?

Will you choose to remain the same or make a change?

26 “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” (Matthew 19:26) (NIV).

Change is about making choices. Thinking of change or desiring to change will not generate change into your life. You have to choose to change. 


It requires a choice. Ask yourself where do I see myself in 2, 3, 4 years time? Will I be better than I am a year from now? Am I going to be more mature, healthier, or happier? Am I going to be like God wants me to be? These will only happen if you choose to make that change.

Do you want to change your situation, your life or are you content with the way things are?

Why do we think that God is instantly going to change us, we must have faith in him? He is waiting on you, for you to say that 'Yes, I am willing to make changes in my life Lord'.

You may have tried to deal with a problem or situation and have failed. This isn't about trying, it's about seeing a transformation in your life by asking God to give you strength. You cannot expect growth without change because growth without change is like expecting snow to fall on a hot summers day.

Jesus said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” (Matthew 19:26) (NIV).

This statement announces that it is impossible to do things alone, you may think and try to, but it is Only with God that all things are possible. You have to let go of your old ways, be renewed and leave old habits behind, old patterns, old ways of thinking, and old hurts in your life. Don't go downhill because you haven't let go of these things. If you trust God then stand aside. God is faithful, there is nothing he can't do.

Prayer:
Dear God, help me to grow in faith; trusting you so that I can make the necessary changes in my life. Lord, I pray that these changes will remain, and I will not relapse and go back to the old me, those old habits and ways of thinking. Help me to not give up, to keep going. Although I know I can't control what is happening on the outside; things which are entirely out of my control, Lord, help me to control what is happening on the inside. God, help me to maintain so that any changes I make will be for the better, creating a better me. In Jesus' name. Amen!

Try it again... Try it With ME!

So many of us have attempted to do so many things ourselves but we have failed. The reason you failed when you attempted that thing is that you attempted it on your own. You didn't Consult or Discuss it with God first. You went along and did it by yourself, thinking that you could do it and achieve it by yourself, but you couldn't and Failed! This is where you successfully played yourself. Think of it like this. Making decisions without God in the centre or consulting Him for His help Support and Guidance are almost like speeding in a car without a seatbelt, at 170mph. Yes, you will get an exhilarating feeling, but you will eventually crash and realise that it was both silly and stupid to think that being in a speeding car without a seatbelt was safe, sensible, and the right thing to do. God wants you to take the back seat ! Let Him reveal to you His Amazing plans for your life. God is Greater than our plans. He is Greater than the decisions we make. He is Greater and G

God's Love!

God's love is Deep, High, Wide and Long! It holds such greatness that it cannot be fully understood! Ephesians 3: 18-19 says, 18   " And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is.   19  May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God". (NLT) Think about the way you love others. Do you love some and not love others? Is your love selective? Is it wide? Does it stretch out to those you do not know? Do you love those who have done you wrong? Read  Matthew 5: 44   God's love is one that extends, stretches and spreads across the whole world. It includes everyone and everything that He created. God created the world; He made us in His own image (Genesis 1: 27) and He loves us. God's  love for you is unconditional! Whether you like it or not, or want to believe it

Having a Better relationship with God

"They were to look for God... and find Him because He is not far from each one of us. It is in Him that we live and move and keep on living". Acts 17:27 (NLV).

You personally need to make time to read God's Word every day ! It might not be easy but it is worth it! Between the busyness of life e.g work, school activities, church, volunteering etc.. You need to make the time to be in His Word. Just You and Him. It clearly declares in the Bible "Come close to God, and God will come close to you. Wash your hands, you sinners; purify your hearts, for your loyalty, is divided between God and the world". James 4:8 (NLT). God wants us to know him! That's a fact!
