Dear Precious Ladies
Wow!
We have already completed the first month of 2013! How have you all
been? Did you manage to effect some of your new year's resolutions, to those of
you who had them?
The idea is to keep on
moving forward and not be discouraged. Many people did not make it to
February so the same God who has allowed us to see this new month, has a
plan and a purpose for our lives. The scriptures tell us that the
pathway of the righteous gets brighter and brighter (Proverbs 4:8), and that we move
from glory to glory, faith to faith, and strength to strength. As we
proceed into this month, our brightness should increase. Some of the
synonyms of brightness are to shine, competence, brilliance, exactness,
accuracy, precision, smartness, intelligence and certainty. Isaiah 60 says "arise and shine, for your light has come and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you."
I
encourage you to increase your levels of smartness, competence,
accuracy and certainty in all the areas of your engagement. Let your
path be brighter as you trust in the Lord and depend on Him for help and
guidance, His glory and ability will be seen in you and through you. We
are mandated to move from strength to strength, so we leave the
strength and glory of January behind, and we embrace this new month
having faith in God.
Our God is a God of
increase and He loves to bless us, His children, and to see us achieve
more. Inasmuch as those of us who are parents love it when our children
make progress, and we celebrate their achievements, we also empower
them to do better and to make a difference. How much more our Heavenly
Father? He wants to show us off to the world so they may see His ability
in us and glorify Him. So whatever we find ourselves doing this month
of February, let it be better than how we did it in January. Shining is
not an option, so we need to rise up from January and brace ourselves
up for February. Let us strengthen our relationship with God and find
our security in Him, that way we will get stability, despite whatever
might be thrown at us in February.
Just to let you know we are having our
Celebrating Womanhood event from the
8th - 9th March 2013.
Friday evening we will be a prayer and worship session tagged
'Alabaster Box'. Saturday will be an all day event. We will be having Dr
Lorna Singh as our guest speaker from
The Word Ministries
in Birmingham. This is a powerful woman of God with great depth and
insights into the word. She is also vastly involved in missions in more
than 87 countries. I know we are in for a great time and our lives will
not be the same after this event. We are asking those of you who are
outside of the UK to pray for this event as we desire to see many women
encouraged and built up.
We will send you more information very soon.
God bless you, cause His face to shine on you and help you to make a difference.
Love and blessings
