Truly In Him

Psalms 34:8 "Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good! Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him!"

It is difficult to explain about the goodness of God and be fully understood. If I say I am full of the joy of the Lord, or the peace of Christ guides me, or I am in fellowship with the Holy Spirit and I talk to Him all the time, some will not fully understand.

Its only when you taste and see for yourself that the Lord is good.

Come and taste the victory over sin, victory over power of darkness. Come and taste the Personal Fellowship with God. Come and taste Healing.
After Andrew tasted the Lord, he could not resist inviting his brother Simon(Peter) to taste Him too. We read in John 1:40-42"One of the two who heard John speak and followed Jesus was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.41He first found his own brother Simon and said to him, We have found the Messiah (which means Christ).42He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, You are Simon the son of John. You shall be called Cephas (which means Peter)."

We also read the Samaritan woman who after tasting the Lord she ran to call others to come and taste him too.
John 4:25 -30"The woman said to him, I know that Messiah is coming (he who is called Christ). When he comes, he will tell us all things.26Jesus said to her, I who speak to you am he.....28So the woman left her water jar and went away into town and said to the people,29Come, see a man who told me all that I ever did. Can this be the Christ?30They went out of the town and were coming to him"

I call you today to come and taste the Lord Jesus, He is good. Experience Him for yourself. Do you have any trouble in your life right now? Jesus is good enough to take away all your troubles. He loves you and if you believe Him, you will be set free.

Now,
To accept Jesus in you life, pray this short prayer, meaning it from your heart:

Lord Jesus, I thank you for loving me, I acknowledge my sins, please forgive me. Be the Lord and savior of my life, In the name of Jesus, Amen.

Now, for any trouble that you are going through, wether its sickness, oppression by power of darkness etc, say this prayer:

Lord Jesus, I believe that you came to set me free from all oppressions, I pray that you set me free from my (mention your trouble). Thank you Jesus for setting me free, in Jesus name, Amen.

The Lord has heard you and you are set free, in Jesus name.

God bless you.

KUJULIKANA NA MUNGU

Mara nyingi k**a si mara zote tumekuwa tukitafuta kumjua Mungu, tunajitahidi kwenda nyumba za ibada, kusoma neno la Mungu, kuomba n.k, ili tuwe karibu na Mungu, lakini swali ni Je Mungu anatujua ?

Kujulikana na Mungu, si kwa maana ya Mungu kujua kwamba tupo na kujua mambo yetu, maana kwa jinsi ya hivi Mungu anajua kila kitu, mpaka ndege mdogo tunaye mdharau haanguki akafa bila Mungu kujua.

Kujulikana huku ni kutambulika kwa Mungu kuwa sisi tu wake. Yesu alisema katika Yohana 10:14 " Mimi ndimi mchungaji mwema, nao walio wangu nawajua, nao walio wangu wanijua mimi"

Kuna walio wa Yesu, hao anawajua, na walio wa Yesu wanamjua Bwana wao. Lakini wapo wanaomjua Yesu ila yeye hawajui. Watu hawa hawataurithi ufalme wa Mungu.
Kuna watu wanaohubiri na kuombea watu kwa Jina la Yesu na hata kupata matokeo, lakini hawataurithi ufalme wa Mungu. Kwa sababu Yesu hawajui watu hawa. Tunasoma katika 1Wakorintho 9:27, mtume Paulo akisema " bali nautesa mwili wangu na kuutumikisha, isiwe nikiisha kuwahubiri wengine, mwenyewe niwe mtu wa kukataliwa"
Upo uwezekano wa kufanya kazi ya Mungu lakini bado tukakataliwa. Tunasoma pia katika Mathayo 7:22 " Wengi wataniambia siku ile, Bwana, Bwana, hatukufanya unabii kwa jina lako, na kwa jina lako kutoa pepo, na kwa jina lako kufanya miujiza mingi? 23 Ndipo nitawaambia dhahiri, Sikuwajua ninyi kamwe, ondokeni kwangu ninyi mtendao maovu"

Sasa upo msingi wa mtu kujulikana na Mungu, nao hauwezi kubadilika, biblia inasema katika

2Timotheo 2:19 " Lakini msingi wa Mungu ulio imara umesimama, wenye muhuri hii,
Bwana awajua walio wake,
Na tena,
Kila alitajaye jina la Bwana na auache uovu"

Huu ndiyo msingi wa kujulikana na Mungu, inatupasa kuuacha uovu. Hili ndilo jambo pekee la kutufanya tujulikane na Mungu. Kuuacha uovu kunatokana na kuisikia sauti ya Mungu, yaani kuyatenda yale anayotuambia. Yesu akasema katika Yohana 10:27 " Kondoo wangu waisikia sauti yangu, nami nawajua, nao wanifuata".

Mungu akubariki!

Mithali 15:3 " Macho ya BWANA yako kila mahali, yakimchunguza mbaya na mwema"

Wakati mwingine tunawezafikiri kuwa Mungu haoni lile jambo dogo jema tunalolifanya, au ule uovu tunaoufanya. Lakini Mungu anaona kila kitu wakati wote na kila mahali.

Tusikate tamaa kutenda mema, na kumtii Mungu, Yeye hujionyesha mwenye nguvu kwao wanaompenda, anamjua kila mtenda mema.

Biblia inasema katika 2 Mambo ya Nyakati 16:9 " Kwa maana macho ya BWANA hukimbia-kimbia duniani mwote, ili ajionyeshe mwenye nguvu kwa ajili ya hao, waliokamilika moyo kuelekea kwake......."

Tunakumbuka jinsi Mungu alivyojionyesha mwenye nguvu kwa kuwaokoa Shedraki, Meshaki, na Abednego. Akazuia moto usiwatekekeze. Tunakumbuka jinsi Mungu alivyomuokoa Danieli na Simba wenye njaa. Hii yote ni kwa sababu walikuwa watenda mema, na walimpendeza Mungu.

Biblia inatufundisha kuwa tusichoke kutenda ma, Wagalatia 6:9 " Tena tusichoke katika kutenda mema, maana tutavuna kwa wakati wake, tusipozimia roho"

Mungu akubariki.

Yeremia 1:4-8 " Neno la BWANA lilinijia kusema 5 Kabla sijakuumba katiks tumbo, nalikujua, na kabla hujatoka tumboni, nalikutakasa, nimekuweka kuwa nabii wa mataifa 6 Ndipo niliposema, Aa, Bwana MUNGU! Tazama siwezi kusema maana mimi mtoto 7 Lakini BWANA akaniambia, usiseme mimi ni mtoto, maana utakwenda kwa kila kila mtu nitakaye kutuma kwake, nawe utasema kila nitakalo kuamuru. 8 Usiogope kwa sababu ya hao maana mimi nipo pamoja nawe, nikuokoe, asema BWANA.

Ndugu mpedwa, uliyeitwa na BWANA kwa ajili ya kumtumikia, lakini unaona kuna jambo linakuzuia kuitikia wito huo. Napenda kukuambia kuwa Mungu anasema usiogope, Yeye yupo pamoja nawe. Atakulinda, atakusimamia, atakuokoa na atakuheshimisha.

Mungu ni mfanyakazi pamoja nawe, na wale utakao wahudumia ni watu wa Mungu, hivyo kila hatua yuko na wewe.
1Wakorintho 3:9 "Maana sisi tu wafanyakazi pamoja na Mungu, ninyi ni shamba la Mungu, ni jengo la Mungu"
