Series 7: Adventures in New-York/Are you feeling empty/Tired/Spiritual Famine.

Andromeda TV series theme song: The long night has come. The greatest civilization in history has fallen. Now one ship, one crew has vow to drive back the night and rekindle the LIGHT. On the starship Andromeda, HOPE lives again.

Are you feeling Empty/Tired/Spiritual Famine?

“And when you feel tired, come see about me, says God; Come unto Me,” Matthew 11:28-29.

It’s like they say, you can’t pour from an empty cup. For example, after you’ve done preaching…giving all your words to everyone else, etc. You’ve left empty and tired, drained. Study the Bible more, they say. But that’s for the people, not you. The question remains: how do you fill your cup? Or hear from God? You can’t hear from God, if you’re empty. You hear God when your cup is filled. So, how do you fill the cup? Answer, read the Bible for you, not for them. Like a man dying of thirst, fill up on Bible verses, prayer and worship, until you’re sick of reading the Bible. That’s when you know that you are full…filled. The same with worship; worship until you are sick of worshipping. The same with prayer; pray until you’re sick of praying. Let me say it this way! Eat until you are stuffed and sick of eating. That’s how you know, you are full…filled.

For example, for the last several months, I was in a health battle. I couldn’t work or write. It made me so sad. Ahh! But I saw this as an opportunity to get full…or filled on God through His word, worship and prayer.

So, my recommendation to you is this…stuff your face, until you’re sick of God’s words, prayer, and worship. That’s when you know you’re full…filled. And that’s when you begin to hear from God, because the Holy Spirit brings His word back to your remembrance, John 14:26. You’re so stuffed with God’s word, it begins to spill over into other people’s lives. Find me or borrow more vessels; 2 Kings 4:3-4. That’s what is happening to me right now. I’m so stuffed right now…find me another blog to write about. No! Scratch that! I need to post Today’s Status every day, I’m so full…filled.

Series 6: Adventures in New-York/The Trap is set/Your urgency is not my emergency.

Andromeda TV series theme song: The long night has come. The greatest civilization in history has fallen. Now one ship, one crew has vow to drive back the night and rekindle the LIGHT. On the starship Andromeda, HOPE lives again.

Word of the day! Holy Spirit Revelations.

The Trap is set! Your urgency is not my emergency.

The Trap is set when you start to pray for your heart’s desires; Psalms 37:4. I got you now, says God. “You want what you want, but I, God, want a son or disciple of Christ”.

This reminds me of the story of Hannah, 1 Samuel 1-2; 1 Samuel 2:1-10. Hannah wanted a child, but God wanted a prophet. Here’s the revelation. You want your needs to be met…and in between waiting for your need to be met…point A to point B. God uses that in-between time to get what He wants. Hence, the Trap is set. Your urgency to have your needs met is not my emergency, says God. Anxiety and the frustration disappear when you realize that the trap has been set by God; He’s got you now. Why is it taking so long, you asked. Because God’s got you now; the trap is set. Your urgency is not my emergency. You’re on my timeline now, says God. Not chronos time, hours or minutes. But Kairos time, the right moment for action, says God.

Series 5: Adventures in New-York/Beware of The Angel of Light

The long night has come. The greatest civilization in history has fallen. Now one ship, one crew has a vow to drive back the night and rekindle the LIGHT. On the starship Andromeda, HOPE lives again.

Word of the day! Holy Spirit Revelations.

Beware of the angel of light! Speaking just enough Christianese to pass as a believer. Christianese refers to the specialized language, terms, and jargon used within Christianity that may be difficult for outsiders to understand. It often includes theological phrases and catchphrases that are familiar to believers but can be opaque to those not familiar with the faith.

No! Not black or white, or truth or lie. But living in the gray. A little bit of truth with a whole lot of lies. Or a little bit of lie mixed in with a whole lot of truth…living in the gray.

2 Corinthians 11:14-15

No wonder, for even Satan “disguises himself as an angel of light. So it is no surprise if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. Their end will correspond to their deeds.

Only the Holy Spirit can help you use discernment to know what it is. Is it black, white or gray. Is it a Christian, a sinner, or an angel of light?

“You shall know them by their fruit” is a biblical phrase from Matthew 7:20, meaning that you can identify people by their “actions and the outcomes of their behavior. It emphasizes that good actions lead to positive results, while bad actions lead to negative consequences.

Series 4: Adventures in New-York/Getting Rid of Pain Blockers.

The long night has come. The greatest civilization in history has fallen. Now one ship, one crew has vow to drive back the night and rekindle the LIGHT. On the starship Andromeda HOPE lives again.

Word for the day! Holy Spirit Revelations.

Here are some tips that I learnt while navigating the pain I’m in.

Revelation#1… Pain is a “blocker that keeps you from seeing clearly. You can’t see past the pain; there’s a reason why. Devil knows what he’s doing. He’s trying to block your view or perspective.

Revelation#2…Leverage pain for the revelation that cometh. Since the devil decided to attack me with pain, I get revelation in “exchange for all this pain, he put me through. I like to say it this way, what was meant for evil; Genesis 50:20… and the devil has to “Return to me, seven-fold that which was stolen from me. Proverbs 6:31, which states that if a thief is caught, they must pay back “seven times what they stole, potentially giving up all their wealth.

In “exchange for “stealing my health, you will give me revelation, in Jesus’s name.

Revelation#3… Don’t waste your pain. Most people turn to drugs and alcohol to numb the pain. Let Holy Spirit “comfort and then after you’ve done crying. “Write a book, speak, teach the next generation how to deal with your “kind of pain. Bible verse: Philippians 4:13.
