HAIL STONES
Today we've had a heavy down pour with hail stones, something that rarely happens. All I know is, hail is a form of precipitation that falls as pellets of ice from the sky. It damages crops. During dry seasons, people pray for rain and are never specific about whether God should send them good rain without hail and floods. My prayer is this should not be the destructive kind of rain.
UTTERING ALL TO GOD
Do not be worried about anything, but in all things with prayer and supplication with thanksgiving , let your request be made known unto God. Philipians 4:6. There are somethings in our lives we can never tell our parents especially things to do with frustrations in our social lives or relationships. God is our father and he's ready to listen to all your issues. Jephtah uttered all his words to God at Mizpeh and God answered him. Judges 11:11
HE DISARMED PRINCIPALITIES
I'm one person who doesn't give up on prayer no matter the circumstance. All you have to know is you have the authority over satan.
God gave you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy. Luke 10:19. He disarmed principalities and powers that were raged against us. Colosians 2:15. Your authority will only be effective if you speak it out. Remember, the word of God in your mouth is truth 1 kings 17:24.
NB. It is very dangerously to go into spiritual warfare without repenting your sins.

THE CROSS
I just want to share with you the significance of the cross
- The cross destroyed the works of the enemy. 1 John 3:8. Remember when satan appeared before God and God asked him where he had been: He said he had been moving to and fro, back and forth which is the exact symbol for the cross.
- Our curses were broken. Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law for it is written, cursed is he that is hunged on the cross. Galatians 3:13.
- The essence of Jesus stretching his hands wide on the cross was to show his love towards mankind. John 3:16
- Our sins were forgiven. He was wounded for our transgressions and bruised for our iniquities. Isaiah 53:5
- We have to carry our own crosses and follow him. Mark 8:34.
- Our diseases were healed. By his stripes we were healed
- Every negative was changed into positive.

WHEN HEAVEN CALLS
Heaven's apparent call is for people to repent and be saved. The grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men. Titus 2:11. The bible tells us in Isaiah 55:6 to call upon the lord while he's still near. It literally means there's a time the grace of God shall be lifted and it will be time for judgement. Heaven's last call shall be for the end of this age.
There shall be a sound from heaven and Michael, the arch angel shall sound the trumpet. The dead in Christ shall rise first, and those that are alive shall together see him in clouds and we shall forever be with the lord. Will you be there? Get saved and live a repentant life.
PHONE CALL TO HEAVEN
Just like we use cell phones to communicate to people, God requires us to talk to him using our mouths. I imagine, faith is our airtime, the grace of God is our network connection, prayer is our charger and the holyspirit is the customer care personnel. Your sim card is your name and in case you've not yet regestered it, please go ahead by accepting Jesus in your life. If you believe he is the son of God and confess with your mouth that God raised from the dead, you'll be saved. Romans 10:9. So, what are you waiting for ? Get that phone and talk to God. He's never busy,switched off but always available at the moment

THE GOOD,ACCEPTABLE AND PERFECT WILL OF GOD.
God created us to do his perfect will on earth. Remember the parable of the talents, God has given every man a measure of faith. He has given everyone of us a gift and you will never discover it unless you cry out to God to show it to you. Some people are doing the good and the acceptable but not the perfect will of God. He gives a reward for the good and acceptable deeds but not the actual crown for what he created you for. Also, for you to be able to do his will, pray he puts you at the right place. You can do the right thing but in a wrong place. Up until now, I had not discovered the perfect will of God in my life till I prayed for him to put me in the right place."For example, for God to enable me to be able to write this blog, I had to be positioned in this position which is not what I myself expected to be doing in regard to my academic qualifications. God will have to humble you that he may exalt himself in your life. Every good and perfect gift is from above and comes down from the father of lights in whom there's no variation nor shadow of turning. James 1:17.
MY TESTIMONY
About a year ago around this time, I miraculously survived a car accident. I don't care what the devil plans for me, all I know is the lord will deliver me from every evil work and preserve me for his heavenly kingdom. (2 Timothy 4:18). The lord will fulfil the number of my days. (Exodus 23:26). The devil came to steal,kill and destroy, but Jesus came that we may have life and have it more abundantly. The lord has also fought my battles this year. I stand to testify today that Job 5:12 has become active and evident in my life. "He disappoints the devices of the crafty so that their hands can not perform their enterprise".

A FAMILY THAT PRAYS TOGETHER STAYS TOGETHER.
I'm not yet married but I strongly believe in this saying. First and foremost, prayer time should be significant for every family. It is a uniting factor for couples and their children. It is sad to note that even for christian families, prayer stops at church and on a Sunday. We never take time as a family to memorise scripture.(Deuteronomy 6:8) and the devil has taken this as a loophole to destroy marriages. As for me and my family,we shall serve the lord. joshua 24:15.
RAISED WHEN YOU BOW ON YOUR KNEES
All the annointed men and women of God have got where they are by getting on their knees. Jesus was 100% God and 100% man but prayed more than anyone. The secret of his power was in prayer. The fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.(James 5:16). It is supposed to be continuously done without getting tired. But when you stand in prayer, forgive and repent your sins before God.(Mark 11:25). God raises all those that are bowed down. (Psalms 145:14).

THY WORD IS A LAMP UNTO MY FEET
Narrow is the way that leads to life and few find it. (Matthew 7:13). As you walk with God, allow him to order your steps by his word. (Psalms 119:133) and his word to be the light in your path. Without that, believe you, me, you will stumble and fall. If you trust in him, he will direct your path and will not allow your foot to be moved.(Proverbs 3:5). You will pass through fires, waters and the valley of the shadow of death, but do not be afraid, he's with you. You will walk and not grow weary. (Isaiah 40:31).

DISCERNING THE TIMES
The serries of events happenning around the world are enough to help us discern the coming of Jesus Christ. He says, Wherever there's carcass, vultures will gather. The increase of wickedness in the world, epidemics, Uganda being one country that has been affected by several of them including nodding head, Marburg, Cholera, Ebola and swine fever being the most recent in Kyenjojo. Today, there are more people claiming to be followers of Christ yet with a doctrine contrary to the bible. It is time to check our walk with Christ and prepare for his coming. What have you done for him?
WHO SAYS YOU'RE GOOD FOR NOTHING?
On earth, people are accorded respect in regard to their titles. It is surprising to know, that all this ends here. Nobody is good for nothing. Whether you're lame,poor, short, small,big, to mention but a few. Jesus once told those that were asking him why someone was blind and which sin he had committed to be so. He replies, "this person was born for the glory of God to be manifested". I have never heard of a bad eulogy about any dead person for the burials I have ever attended in my life.
"LITTLE BY LITTLE"
Have you ever wondered why some prayers take long to be answered? God answers every prayer as long as your sins are not separating you from him. Psalms 145:16. He programmes every event in which your breaktrough will reach you. Exodus 23:30 says, ' Little by little, I will drive your enemies from before you' So never give up praying. No matter how long it takes, God will bring it to pass. He will deliver you from your enemies and plead your cause if you only learn to love and pray for them and let God avenge you.

GOD'S VISION WILL SPEAK AND NOT LIE
Write a vision and make it plain upon the tables that he may run that reads it. For the vision is for an appointed time but at the end it will speak and not lie. For though it will tary, wait for it. Habakkuk 2:2-3. It doesn't matter whether you're bound. When the right time comes, you will have no choice but to walk in to it.

CELEBRATING JUBILEE
Celebrating the 50 years starts way back in the bible days. There was a celebration at the end of every seven years and for the seven years going on for seven times would make the 49 years. Hence the 50th year would be a celebration. Leviticus 25:10 says, you shall hallow the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty. Having celebrated jubilee as a nation, we believe in freedom to govern our nation with un compromising legislations that protect religious,economic as well as political statii.

CROWNING THE YEAR
As the year comes to an end, the question from everyone is, what they've achieved so far. we normally make annual programmes and plans at the beginning of the year which is rational. Habakkuk 2:2 says, write a vision and make it plain upon the tables. In most cases we attain some of them and carry the rest forward to the following year. There's nothing you will achieve unless you are alive. Let's first thank God for what we need and then he will grant us what we want.
FAITH IS ALL YOU NEED
A faithless christian is like a toothless dog. Abraham is called a friend of God simply because of his strong faith in God. He trusted God above all odds. He lived to see some of the promises God gave him though, he never saw the numerous descendants God promised him. Delayal for God's promises is not denial. Between God's promise and its fulfilment is opposition from the devil. Faith and patience will however help you to obtain it. Hebrews 6:12. Let us not be slothful, but let's be followers of those who through faith and patience obtain promises.
Talking of faith, even demons believe and tremble. The difference is, you don't have to give up.

IT'S YOU I LIVE FOR EVERYDAY
This has become more than just a song to me. For us to live for God every single moment of our lives means seeking God in all ways and being alert to listen from him. Living our lives as sacrifices, Giving up every vain thing for the sake of righteousness. Philipians 3:7 puts it well when it says, the things that were gain to me, I counted loss for Christ. Mark 8:36 says, " What does it benefit to gain the whole world and lose your soul in hell. God expects us to give thanks in everything whether good or bad and live by faith. I am good at quoting scriptures, but at one moment, I've had to go through a situation to understand the essence and literal meaning of some of them. Scriptures like Reveletions 12:11. " They overcame him by the blood of the lamb and by the word of their testimony and they did not love their lives un to death. Friend you should not love your life but rather, should sacrifice and do every thing to fulfil all righteousness.
