INSPIRATION BEHIND THE NAME OF THE BLOG

When an artist decides to make a painting, he "conceives" a picture. He then takes out the canvas, brushes and paint. After getting out all he may need, the artist starts picking out the colours and brushes he wants to use...then; he begins! Now, somewhere during the process of this painting he comes to the point where he decides to use a very fine brush to put in the some detail on the painting, but for some reason that brush just does not want to work...and having to finish the painting, the artist chooses another brush which even though it is not as fine (able) as the previous brush becomes a skilful wand in the hands of the artist, not due to the capabilities of the brush...no, due to the willingness!

Mat 22:14 for many are called, but few are chosen...

I believe this scripture does not refer to God having favourites and therefore does not want to choose some, but rather because some are consistently refusing God's grace and love to shape and mold their hearts.

Do you realize just how much God loves you...? He created the universe with words, yet He took the time to mold, shape and create you...this has to make you wonder; who is this God that thought of me before the foundation of the earth and if He thought of me, that must mean that I am worth so much in His hands...?

THE EAGLE NEEDS TO HUMBLE HIMSELF AND ADHERE TO THE WAY AND WILL OF GOD!!

On 16 July 2014 I was at a prayer group and while I was praying God gave me a vision and at first I did not want to share it as it is a heavy word, but this morning the Lord just reminded me of this scripture: Ezek33:5-7 'He heard the sound of the trumpet but did not take warning; his blood will be on himself. But had he taken warning, he would have delivered his life. 6 'But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet and the people are not warned, and a sword comes and takes a person from them, he is taken away in his iniquity; but his blood I will require from the watchman's hand.' So I decided to share the vision that He gave me and it was as follows: I saw myself sitting before the throne of God and I had a scroll in my hand which I opened, I could see that it was the "world map" but I could only open the scroll to a certain extend and the only continent that I could see was North America, I could see the ti...

RIGHTEOUS IN GOD OR IN SELF, GUARD YOUR HEART!!

Jeremiah 9:24New International Version (NIV) 24 but let the one who boasts boast about this: that they have the understanding to know me, that I am the Lord , who exercises kindness, justice and righteousness on earth, for in these I delight,” declares the Lord . If you ever thought your pain and sorrows were or are worse than someone else's you need to shift your focus to the cross because Jesus went through the worst pain anyone could NEVER even imagine but still he never, ever belittles what we go through by thinking we are crying over "nothing" because He went through worse and got through it. Instead he relates (not dominates), which cause compassion to brew in His heart and that places Him in a position where He can reach out and pull us out of o ur situation into Him (who is victorious, because He has overcome the world). So yes the truth may be that your p...
