Getting Brighter and Brighter

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

Pastor Fatima Sibanda
Chairperson
