TAKE A STEP TO GREATNESS Chapter 4 Episode 2

EPISODE 2

At times when you need someone’s assistance for a project, he or she would ask you, "what do you have?, What is your plan?, How much can you raise?" You must present something like a plan or certain capital you have with you already. There is something in you, no man was created empty. If you have no money you should have a plan. If you have no certificate you should have skills. If you have no university degree you have hands and legs, you are not crippled. If you have not tasted success, you have experience and lessons from your past failures, so there is something special in you. You are loaded. You have something, stop living in doubt and believe in yourself and put it to work.

But let him ask in faith, with no doubting for the one who doubt is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind. -- James 1:6.

Take a step and decision of faith and never doubt what you are doing. Doubt is not being certain of something, which leads to instability and lack of peace. Any step taken in doubt will never be fruitful and productive, it will never last or endure, because it’s like the wave of the sea without rest.

Doubt brings delay in your decision making. Because you are not really sure, and then, it will bring delay to your fulfillment in life. You always postpone projects and plans. At times you start a project you would not complete, you are not convince of what the outcome would be. You always feel unmotivated, unable to proceed, even when there are lots of exciting opportunities.

Read Mathew 14:28-31 Lord, if it is you, Peter replied tell me to come to you on the water, come He said then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came towards Jesus But when he saw the wind, He was afraid and beginning to sink, cried out lord save me. Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him, you of little faith. He said why do you doubt?

People who doubt always have that conditional statement of Peter, “If it is you.”
They always need extra assurances; if it is true that…, if I start the business will it boom?, If only they will give me the job?

You will make progress as long as you believe. If you stop believing your progress would stop. Peter believed and walked on water, which is unimaginable. You can also do and achieve the unimaginable if you do not doubt.

The wind actually changed the mind and faith of Peter. Don’t be scared of the wind of life - trouble. Trouble don’t last. Why do you doubt?


STOP DOUBTING BUT BELIEVE

Do you have doubt in you? You are not certain and sure to take that inspired step in your career, plan, desire or marriage? Stop doubting and believe that you can achieve your goal. Until you stop doubting you can’t be a success.

Then He said to Thomas, put your finger here, see my hands, reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe. -- John 20:27

Immediately the boy’s father exclaimed, I do believe help me overcome my unbelief. -- Mark 9:24

Pray this prayer in faith: Lord Jesus, help me overcome my unbelief, open my eyes and heart to see what you have deposited in me. Amen.

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 23rd DECEMBER 2023 REJOICE IN THE LORD ALWAYS Philippians 4:4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! (NIV) The Apostle Paul writing to the Church in Philippi, said they should rejoice in the Lord always. He didn't say they should rejoice in themselves but in the Lord. That calls for spiritual insight.  It takes spiritual insight to see what we got in the Lord and rejoice. When you are ask to rejoice over something it means that it holds significance and value. No nobody would ask you to rejoice over something that's not to your advantage. We have everything to our advantage in Christ, and it is our responsibility to recognize them and rejoice.  Looking at your physical environment and, maybe the circumstances of your life you might have reasons to feel bad and dejected. But looking in the Lord and who you are in Him, you would find not only the glorious you but also answers to all your questions.  W...

THE DAUGHTER OF JEZEBEL introduction

CONTENTS AND INTRODUCTION CONTENTS Chapter One -- CHARACTERS OF JEZEBEL Chapter Two -- THE DAUGHTER OF JEZEBEL Chapter Three -- HER MISSION Chapter Four -- IF SHE BECOMES YOUR WIFE Chapter Five -- A FALSE PROPHET INTRODUCTION In humility I write this book to the Man of God not to be unaware of the devices of the devil. 2 Corinthians 2:11 in order that Satan might not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes. I write to remind the Man of God that one of the schemes of Satan against the servant of God is "The Daughter of Jezebel." Before talking about the Daughter of Jezebel, who is Jezebel?  THE JEZEBEL IN THE BIBLE Jezebel was the daughter of Ethbaal King of Sidon. Ahab the King of Israel married her which of course was against the Lord's instruction to Israel not to marry among the nations around them. She was mainly responsible for all the evil Ahab King of Israel committed in the sight of God. She killed many of the Lord's Prophets in Israel. She was a swor...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 14th JANUARY 2024 FORGIVE AS THE LORD FORGAVE YOU Colossians 3:13-14 Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. (NIV) We should not have offense we cannot forgive. But at times we find ourselves in a situation where forgiveness seems difficult. If we apply our emotions and how hurt we are, it will be difficult to forgive. But if we consider how God forgave us then forgiving others would be easy.  There are things to note in our opening scripture; Bear with each other; forgive one another; grievance against someone; forgive as the Lord forgave you; put on love.  To bear with someone means to tolerate. If we cannot tolerate we cannot forgive. Then it says forgive one another; this means that we talk our differences over and forgive each other -- I forgive yo...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS

 BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 13th OCTOBER 2023 YOU ARE THE SEED OF ABRAHAM Galatians 3:16,29 The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. Scripture does not say "and to seeds," meaning many people, but "and to your seed," meaning one person, who is Christ. ...If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.(NIV) We are not Abraham's seeds but Abraham's seed. Abraham has one spiritual seed and that seed is Christ. If you are in Christ you are the seed of Abraham. All the blessings and promises God gave to Abraham are actually fulfilled in you. The promise of blessing God made to Abraham was of two sides; physical and spiritual.  Genesis 13:15 For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever.  Abraham and his physical seed did enjoy the physical side of the blessing. But the spiritual side was reserved for the spiritual seed; those in Christ. The spir...

BREAKFAST WITH JESUS

 BREAKFAST WITH JESUS A daily devotional Pastor Stanley 16th OCTOBER 2023 INCREASE IN GRACE AND PEACE 2 Peter 1:2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,(NIV) God has given everyone of us Grace and Peace in Christ. But how much of them we enjoy depends on our knowledge of God and Jesus our Lord. Knowledge here refers to intimate knowledge which comes through relationship. The level of Grace and Peace we enjoy is directly connected to our relationship and fellowship with God. The deeper your relationship with Him the greater your peace and grace.  If you find yourself wanting peace or grace what you need is not prayer but a meditation on the Word and how it relates with you. You can choose to increase the Grace and Peace of God in your life by increasing your knowledge of, relationship and fellowship with God. The scripture says Grace and Peace can be multiplied unto you through your knowledge of God and of Jesus Christ our Lo...
