#The_Ripple_Effects_of_Faith_In_God

Dear Diary,
So, this is my first scribble this year and it's a testimony. My hope is that someone will be encouraged. Today in our children's church service (Judea) we were singing "Kama mvua ishukavyo, toka mbinguni.... Na neno Lake kwa kinywa chake, halitarudi bure." I then made an altar call asking anyone sick to stand and tap into the promise of God. A no.of kids stood, I told them to have faith in God and as we sung again and we all prayed. after the prayers we sat and then I asked, "Has anyone received their healing? A certain girl stood up and came forward and testified that when she came in, one of her ear was sort of blocked and after praying she feels like it's gone and her ear is now fine. We gave a round of applause to God.
Dear Diary, you see, sometimes I pray but I have doubts, "Will this thing really happen?" The faith of a little girl in a big God worked and it challenged me. Mark 11:22-24; Heb 11:1,6; James 1:5-8; 5:13-16. If we are to move mountains, we MUST HAVE FAITH IN GOD. We must ask Him in AITH. If u have faith you will speak to mountains in your life, impossibilities, difficult issues and they will be removed. Valleys will be levelled, grace will be sufficient. The prayer of the righteous man offered in faith is powerful and effective. If God did it for that girl, He will do it for you because He is a faithful Promise Keeper.
I feel inspired and challenged. God help my unbelief.

Keep Your Hand Clasped in God's Hand

Nzaku Nashipae feeling inspired.
Dear Diary,
Yesterday as I was going about my errands, I met a pair-a father and a son (about 4-5yr old). They were walking with the son's hand clasped in his father's hand. I was following, envying and admiring the father-son relationship. Suddenly, the little champ let go and refused to be held by the dad. So, the dad pleaded with the boy, "patia baba mkono." The kid refused and in frustration the dad grabbed him by force. You can imagine the depressing and hysterical screams. I walked past them and got lost in thoughts.
How many times have I withdrawn my hand from God's hand? What's the worst that can happen if my hand is not clasped in His? Isaiah 41:13, "For I, Jehovah, thy God, hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee."
Think about this lyrics:
1
He leadeth me! O blessed thought,
O words with heav’nly comfort fraught;
Whate’er I do, where’er I be,
Still ’tis Christ’s hand that leadeth me.
He leadeth me! He leadeth me!
By His own hand He leadeth me;
His faithful follower I would be,
For by His hand He leadeth me.
2
Sometimes ’mid scenes of deepest gloom,
Sometimes where Eden’s bowers bloom,
By waters still, o’er troubled sea,
Still ’tis His hand that leadeth me.
3
Lord, I would clasp Thy hand in mine,
Nor ever murmur or repine;
Content, whatever lot I see,
Since it is Thou that leadest me.
4
And when my task on earth is done,
When, by Thy grace, the vict’ry’s won,
E’en death’s cold wave I will not flee,
Since Thou in triumph leadest me
God wants to lead you. He desires that you clasp your hand in His big, tender hand. Don't dare make a move without His hand.
Regards,
NzakuNashipae

#Transforming_Encounter

Dear Diary,

I came across this story and it got me thinking deeply and loud.

"Years ago a farmer from the interior of China had come to a mission compound where a doctor had removed the cataracts from his eyes. A few days after the farmer left, the doctor looked out his window and noticed the same man holding the end of a long rope. In single file behind him, holding to the rope, were several dozen blind Chinese whom the farmer had rounded up and led for miles to the doctor who had worked “miracles” on his eyes. Because his sight had been restored, he wanted others to experience the same thing!"

Let me use this story to illustrate a life changing encounter with Jesus. The most important thing that can happen to a person is to encounter Jesus, who loves us, who gave His life for us and to save us. An encounter with Jesus reveals the truth about Jesus and ourselves; His grace and our spiritual need; changes our life's purpose; when we encounter Him we exhibit transformed lives; we become His witnesses and so many other great things.

Show me a man or woman who has ever encountered Jesus and remained the same! Certainly no one encounters Jesus and remains the same. I am a living testimony, #Yesu_Amenifanya_Ningare.
Consider the Samaritan woman, Mary Magdalene, Simon Peter, Nathaniel, Matthew the tax collector, the woman with an issue of blood for 12yrs, Blind Batimaeus e.t.c are perfect examples of the transforming encounter with Jesus.

Have you had an encounter with Jesus?

Regards,
NzakuNashipae
