FROM BITTER TO SWEET When they came to the oasis of Marah, the water was too bitter to drink. So they called the place Marah (which means "bitter"). Ex. 15:23 The Israelites having journeyed for days without water in the wilderness was exhausted. The entire area is a wilderness and no water. Suddenly there is hope, they see water before them. On sight of the river, after three days of thirst, they heaped a sigh of relief. At last there is water before them...  Oh how joyous they must have been to find a relief.... But wait a second, their joy quickly turned sour, the blessing of the water was not what they expected, it is a bitter water. The only water they could see turned to be “bitter”. Their joy turned to sorrow, their soul was in pains, "how could God do this to them", they must have thought. They all complained and murmured as a result of the bitter water. This showed that their hopes were dashed. They would need to walk another distan

GOD KNOWS Elizabeth Iyadi Abaye   “And the LORD said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their sorrows.” Exodus 3:7*  Most times when people are faced with situations they wonder if God is aware of what they are going through or if He does care or if He is hearing all their cries and prayers?  Some even go as far as wondering if God is really there? Today we can see the Lord who comforted and helped His people of old in all their affliction informing us that He is seeing all that we are going through, He is hearing our cries, He knows all our sorrows and pains and certainly, He will take care of things for us. Beloved, in all the challenges you are going through, be rest assured that _God Sees, God Knows, and he Hears your groans_  and he will fix them for you. He will do something about them all as you continue to call upon Him for it is written, * “When the righteous cry for help

THE PROMISE'S OF GOD    Paul in 2 Corinthians 1:20 says the promises of God are Yea and Amen. “YEA” means “YES”. The promises of God are not “YES” today then tomorrow “NO”. Neither are they “Maybe”. The promises of God are “YES!” nothing short of YES. Will God give you your heart desires? “YES He will!” Will He heal you? “YES He will!” Will He save and deliver you from that situation? “YES he will!” and if God says YES no man nor powers can say NO. Because God’s promises are YES and AMEN, therefore He does not say NO to any prayer that is prayed in His will. Wherefore, John declared, “And this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask any thing according to His will, He hears us” 1John 5:14. Jesus in Revelation 3:14 said that He is the Amen, the faithful and true witness. If Jesus is the Amen It then means your case is settled already for Amen means “So be it.” It also means “It’s already done.” Therefore what God has spoken concerning you is alread

THE SNARE IS BROKEN .   Elizabeth Abaye  "Our soul escaped as a bird out of a snare of fowlers: the snare is broken, and we are escaped.” (Psalm 124:7) They are so many issues in people's life, so many situations that are messing with our minds, our character and messing with our relationship with our Lord.    Some are dealing with financial issues, some health issues, some physical issues and some moral issues. But thanks be to God who through the sacrifice of His Son Jesus has broken the snare of the wicked and our soul is escaped from their prey. Now our struggles over battles of life are over, for we are "Far above principalities and powers". Child of God, note that the text did not say, “We hope that we will escape, and we trust that the snare will be broken”; but it rightly says, “The snare is broken, and we are escaped.” David in this passage was declaring as a prophet, he was speaking of what Christ was to do for the freedom of the sou

   STOP LIMITING GOD  "Yea they turned back and tempted God, and limited the Holy One of Israel." Psalm 78: 41.  Over and over again the scriptures revealed about the greatness and mightiness of YAHWEH God. We read about Him doing marvellous things in the life and in the midst of His people. We saw how He divided the red sea for His people to have passage and also use the same red sea to consume their enemies. We also read about Him causing Abraham and Sarah to bear a son in their old age. Severally He arises against the enemies and gave victory to His people, but now we read in Psalm 78: 41 that the people limited Him. The question now is, can God be limited? If so, how can He be limited? Someone might say, God cannot be limited, it is impossible for God to be limited, yet we see the scripture telling us that the people limited God. How was it possible for them to limit God? Psalm 78:22 tells us how the people limited God: “Because they believed not in God,
