Moments with Grace 8 - A Thankful Heart

 





 

 

 




It’s New Year’s Eve and what a privilege to be alive to see it!

In this past year, we all have experienced God’s love, grace and mercy in diverse ways and He deserves all the glory, praise and thanksgiving.

There is a song that says; "count your blessings name them one by one and it will surprise you what the Lord has done".

I would like you to take a few minutes and think about what the Lord has done for you this past year.

I was talking with my children about the miracles we’ve experienced from God and when we started listing them, we were amazed at God’s faithfulness.

You can start with at least 10 things you are grateful for…..

Things like the breath of life, the gift of salvation, the gift of family and friends, food ,clothes shelter, etc

 

Please be intentional about it.

Write in down in a book or on your phone and you might out number 10 without realizing it. God has really been faithful🙌

 

The Bible says we should give thanks to the Lord in all Circumstances as seen in 

I Thessalonians 5:16-18

Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

Whatever your life experience might have been in the past year; either Joy or pain or both, remember the Lord our Emmanuel has been with you and will continue to be with you through every season. Stay strong and put your trust completely in Him for He will never fail you.

The Psalmist says:

Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.(Psalm 100:4)

As the year 2023 wraps up and ushers in the year 2024. I pray God’s blessings over you and a thousand generations, your family, your children and your children’s children in Jesus name.

The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace. Amen! (Numbers 6:24-26 )

Let's express gratitude in all circumstances, my friends, and always remember to trust in the Lord with all your heart. Resist the temptation to rely solely on your own understanding.

Happy New Year with love from

Grace

"Hello everyone! How did April treat you? Today marks Grace's final post with us. We're really going to miss her. Thank you, Grace, for consistently sharing timely and insightful posts over the past 12 months. May you reap the rewards of the seeds you've sown. Amen!" Grace, we eagerly anticipate your return to the blog. *** This is the 12th part series of these write ups and the last one on “Moments with Grace”. As I round up, I would like to remind us of the need to stay alert in the Spirit in this perverse generation. 1 Thessalonians 5:6 says: “So be on your guard, not asleep like the others. Stay alert and be clearheaded.“ ‭Nowadays, a lot of things try to get our attention thereby pulling us off our focus on our dear Saviour Jesus Christ. However we must always remember Jesus our promised Messiah came in the flesh, died and resurrected, presently seats at the right hand of the throne of God the Father Almighty and is soon coming back again to take us hom

2024: A Year of Restoration and Divine Surprises

Happy New Year, everyone!   😎 2024 has been described in many ways, but for me, some of the resonating themes are: Rest (Isinmi), Great Rewards, Greater Possibilities, Alignment, and Restoration . Recently, while reading the book of Genesis, I discovered a profound depiction of restoration. When Joseph revealed himself to his brothers and requested them to bring back their father, I could vividly imagine the myriad of emotions running through their minds as they embarked on the journey back home. From the shock of seeing Joseph again to recalling the dreams he shared with them, and finally, the overwhelming relief and joy of delivering the incredible news to their father that his favorite son was alive. Imagine being Benjamin or inside the chariots as they returned to tell their father that Joseph was alive. In my mind, I would be secretly wishing the chariots could transform into jets so I could appear before Jacob sharperly (swiftly). 😂 But since the jet wish wasn't feasible an

God did it

Hello People, The first half of the year ends in few hours 💃 I look back and all I can say is THANK YOU JESUS! The first day of the year came with the promise of a travel gift from GOD. It was so clear, and I held onto it. Fast forward to the month of February, an opportunity presented itself but the timing was short and it looked impossible cos getting a visa in that short period seemed close to impossible. I almost let it go but I was encouraged by some friends to give it a try. As I mustered the strength to, I remembered what GOD had promised, so I equipped myself with it, booked an appointment and went to the embassy, the Wednesday before the due date for my trip. I walked to the counter when it was my turn to submit my documents. The lady I met, looked at me, and asked: “when are you to travel?” I replied “Sunday”. She stared at me and said “today is Wednesday, its not possible for you to travel on Sunday”. I looked at her and smiled, please go ahead. She said “are you su
