Listen up, there is no easy walk to success anywhere, like Jesus many of us would be nailed to our crosses and lay in our tombs, we would pass through the valley of the shadow of death again and again - before we reach the mountain top of our aspirations, hopes and desires. Dangers and difficulties have not deterred us in the past and will not frighten us now .
But we shall persevere, we shall rise, we shall resurrect like Christ and overcome, because that’s what we are- OVERCOMERS . - Monk Reflections.
EASTER SUNDAY
🔥DON’T’ STAY NAILED TO YOUR CROSS & DON’T GET ROTTEN IN YOUR TOMB🔥
ReBirth ☄️ 2022 has been a wonderful journey, the teachings, inspirations, prayers, have been phenomenal. We thank God for revelation, knowledge, protection, miracles, breakthroughs and blessings.
Thank you for giving me the privilege of walking through this season of fasting and prayer with you. It has been a sweet blessing to pray for you and your needs daily. Thank you also for your gracious feedback, support and words of appreciation. You may not know it, but you encouraged me in a moments when I needed it most.
Some of have also prayed for me in a comment or sent a message saying you’re praying for me. Thank you! Pray for me that my hunger for God and His Word will continually increase.
Remember you are not an accident, Even before the universe was created, God had you in mind. As we are wrapping up our 40-day spiritual journey captioned ReBirth ☄️ , it is my hope that knowing God's purpose for creating you and learning about these spiritual laws has reduced your stress, focused your energy, simplified your decisions, given meaning to your life and most importantly prepared you for eternity.
The bridge between what happened to Jesus and what happens to you is the bridge that brings God’s grace, God's deliverance, God's power, God's strength and God's fortitude to your current situation.
I know you ain’t Jesus and may be the Roman Soldiers haven’t carried you away to Golgotha but, may be life has carried you away and you have been nailed down by disappointments, divorce, chaos, confusion, abuse, molestation, trials and secret things you can’t tell anyone.
Let me tell you something right now, everybody has nails. There is something nailing every human person you see. Nobody is spared, from the Pope to the altar boy. From the richest to the poorest. Everyone is nailed to some form of a cross.
Today, you are excited because Jesus' nails have been removed, his is taken down the cross, laid in the tomb but he has gotten out of his tomb. Nice one, what about you? Have your nails, been removed, have you gotten out of your tomb? Have you received your ReBirth?
It's not enough to celebrate Jesus, when you haven't personalized the experience. Some of you are shouting He is risen, you are sending Easter messages all over, that's cool, however for some of you, your nails are still in place and you are still in your tomb, that's not cool.
So, moving forward, the multi-spiritual dollar question is this: - are you going to stay nailed to the cross or you will get off your cross?
Some people stay nailed to their crosses, they stay nailed by complaining about what they have been through and who hurt them, who betrayed them and who gave them the kiss of death. Some stay nailed by remaining bitter for the rest of their life. Some people stay nailed by the continuation of destructive patterns.
However, there are some who manage to get the nails off and get off the cross but they remain in the tomb of regrets, misery, agony, depression and they stop living, they stop breathing, and they anesthetize the pain with some kind of drug, sex, or social vice and they continue to wrap themselves up in the grave clothes of guilt and shame- still lying in the tomb.
Listen up, there is no easy walk to success anywhere, like Jesus many of us would be nailed to our crosses and lay in our tombs, we would pass through the valley of the shadow of death again and again- before we reach the mountain top of our aspirations, hopes and desires. Dangers and difficulties have not deterred us in the past and will not frighten us now. But we shall persevere and overcome, because that’s what we are- OVERCOMERS.
I want you to know that because of the POWER of the RESURRECTION, Jesus is more than you could ever need. He’s more than the eyes could see, we don’t deserve his love but he’s always gonna be there anyway. Jesus is the greatest example of generosity this world of greed has ever seen and when Jesus piped up and hit the scene, He changed the scenery and met diversity with serenity- if you’re looking for peace he offers plenty. He’s father to the orphan and shelter to the homeless, he is the hiding place to the abused and anchor for our storms. He stormed the gate of hell and cannot be stopped even when the world tries. If you don’t know Jesus your future is tragic. He came to save children, save pilgrims, change men and heal women, save lives, erase lies and kill demons.
The power of the resurrection is available to you tap into it. Welcome to your ReBirth.
May the RESURRECTION POWER of CHRIST, awake in us a greater spiritual force and strength, so that we can passionately pursue our God given dreams. It's not good enough when He is risen and you are still nailed to your cross and laying in your tomb, you must also resurrect above your nails and your tomb, and you must rise above your situation, that trauma, that crisis and that dilemma.
After the RESURRECTION what next? GRACE & FAVOUR is what's next, so please stay tuned for the GRACE & FAVOUR CONFERENCE ⚡ beginning within the week.
Happy Easter, and May the joy of the risen Lord fill our lives.
Shalom and God bless you.
