26Th DEC 2007


Woke up this 26Th day of December 2007 about 7 am with an old song 'God has something to say ...,' and instead of getting up of the bed,i decide to still stay in bed and meditate as i have done for weeks almost now since i started my fast somewhere around 1st December.

I mainly was meditating on the fact that as the righteousness of God in Christ ,He hears my prays,that am complete in Him,etc.Round about 8:30 am,i had a mini vision.

I saw a woman right at the entrance of some kind of Church or some Fellowship Venue.She was DESPERATELY ASKING/SEEKING/PRAYING for some thing from the Lord.As soon as she got whatever it was that she was looking for,she became almost insolent and ... .It was so embracing to me who was watching that i COULD NOT BEAR to continue watching.But before she got what she wanted,she was so COMPLIANT,i.e she was ready to do any thing she was told or any thing that was demanded of her.

Just at that point while i thought about this vision,the scriptures in LK 27:12-19, just popped up from within(about the ten lepers that were cleansed and just one came back to say thanks and that one happened to be a Samaritan),and while i thought about that,the Lord started saying to me attitude,attitude,attitude.She of course stand for the Church.This sadly is the ATTITUDE of the Church.The world sadly so many times knows how to be thankful more than the church.
Paul said that one of the last signs that will mark the second coming of the Lord will be that men are going to become ungratefully i.e unthankful.


2 Timothy 3
1This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

How many times do we preach about the second coming and talk about all the other signs and no body mentions with the same zeal and zest the word UNTHANKFULLNESS,yet from this Vision i can quite see that The Lord is not so EXCITED with OUR ATTITUDE along this line.





Luke 17:12-19
12And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off:
13And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.
14And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed.
15And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God,
16And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.
17And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine?
18There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger.
19And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole

While i was meditating on this Lk 27:12-19 ... ,and the vision,i had yet another mini vision.This time i saw a young man standing with a very big Trumpet or what you call a cornet or so (the trumpet is so big that it was just as big as the young man if not bigger than him)about to start some Praise/worship session.

And i knew clearly what the Lord is saying.... 'Praise me,become thankful for All my GOODNESS TO YOU AND DO NOT TAKE THEM FOR GRANTED EVEN THOUGH YOUR whole LIST HAVE NOT ALL BEEN SEEN TO BE MET'.

The year 2007 is coming to an end and i just began to wonder ,have i been thankful myself?.Just at the beginning of this year,i was leaving on my credit card and overdraft which up until then had NEVER happened in my life.I really wondered at what was happening,but as i write,i am about to complete the purchase of a house in East ham,East London with purchase Price £250,000 and am paying 15% deposit that is starling £37500 and am not panicking one bit.That is who far He bless me financially this year 2007.
Despite the personal financial crunch i was experiencing (and it was so bad that for the first time my bank statement was negative,and it really scared me because i was used to having very good bank balance all year round)at the beginning of the year i sowed the greatest seeds this year.As a matter of fact instead of cutting down on my sowing,i went over board sowing from my credit card,not stupidly any way.This year i have sowed about thousands of pounds.Somewhere towards the early part of the second quarter,the wind began to blow financially.

Well while i thought about these things and meditated,praise just started welling up from within me.As i began to praise,after about may be 30minutes to 40minutes as i said to the Lord that atimes my life seems to me like the phrase 'like a shoot out of dry ground',at that point ,it just downed on me that He takes care of the Lilies of the field and the birds of the air that neither 'SOWS' or reaps.And just when those words 'SOW and REAP' came up.I started having understanding that even with the EMPHASIS on sowing and reaping ,despite our failing in this regards,and the sin of UNTHANKFULLNESS that the God of ALL GRACE will take care of His Own.

Just then Prophecy started coming :

'The God of Grace and The Father of All Mercies let's his rain fall on both the wicked and the righteous,He causes is sun to rise on both the righteous and the wicked,and that He will take care of his own SEEDING OR NO SEEDING'.
(This is just the summery of it.)

So if you have failed along these lines,their is hope for you.(But remember we shall not continue in sin that grace may abound,so you will need to repent before Him and claim His forgiveness and then all shall be well)

I perceive that the Lord is saying something about grace come the 2008.

Personally,i will always from now on map out time,and i mean Periodic time at the beginning and end of each year to just to give thanks.

We will be posting further comment on all these later as The Lord allows.
