God’s Word for 2005





Numbers 24 (New International Version)

1 Now when Balaam saw that it pleased the LORD to bless Israel, he did not resort to sorcery as at other times, but turned his face toward the desert. 2 When Balaam looked out and saw Israel encamped tribe by tribe, the Spirit of God came upon him 3 and he uttered his oracle:

"The oracle of Balaam son of Beor,
the oracle of one whose eye sees clearly,
4 the oracle of one who hears the words of God,
who sees a vision from the Almighty,
who falls prostrate, and whose eyes are opened:

5 "How beautiful are your tents, O Jacob,
your dwelling places, O Israel! ( My Identity)

6 "Like valleys they spread out,
like gardens beside a river,
like aloes planted by the LORD ,
like cedars beside the waters.
7 Water will flow from their buckets;
their seed will have abundant water. ( Fluorishing and Growth)

"Their king will be greater than Agag;
their kingdom will be exalted. (Leadership)

8 "God brought them out of Egypt;
they have the strength of a wild ox.
They devour hostile nations
and break their bones in pieces;
with their arrows they pierce them. (Strength and Zeal for the House of God)
9 Like a lion they crouch and lie down,
like a lioness-who dares to rouse them?

"May those who bless you be blessed
and those who curse you be cursed!" (Blessed)

The tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. (James 3:5) 1 Peter 2 1Therefore, rid yourselves of all malice and all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander of every kind Yeah, even in Christian circles, we need to be careful of this evil-----Slander. I have been entangled by this as an unwilling prey this past week I was perceived by that one person that I am praying for Him (no offense to the brother because we already cleared the issue and have patched up our differences) These items circling around Christian circles specially around single people is not only unpleasant to God but it gives very little room for possible pure friendships because it always threatens...

I want the Pearl but God will give me the Diamond- Wait for the Best!

. Lately I am faced with different issues of people almost picking the second best. It's true that the enemy of BEST is GOOD. Too many times we would think that something is good enough for us but God has planned what is best and that is what I want. Far be it from me to choose for myself again nor orchestrate events on my own. I want God to pen my lovestory. "The right person at the right time is the wrong person just as much as the wrong person at the right time is the wrong person". Here's a famous letter about waiting............ . Everyone longs to give themselves completely to someone, to have a deep relationship with another, to be loved thoroughly and exclusively. But to His child, the Lord says: "No, not until you are satisfied, fulfilled, and content with being loved by Me; with giving yourself totally and unreservedly to Me to have an intensely personal relationship with Me alone, discovering that only in Me is your satisfaction to be found...
