Apostle Grace Lubega

Hebrews 6:10 (KJV); For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.

Our Lord is a righteous God. This righteousness is His nature and the essence of His person.

He reveals to us in our theme scripture that it would be contrary to His nature if He forgot your work and labour of love.

It means that by nature, God rewards service to Him. No one serves God in vain.

There are people who have given themselves to the work of the ministry. In the process, they have lost friends, business opportunities, and even been rejected by their families.

They have foregone many pleasures for the sake of the gospel. They have given their time, their finances, their hands and their feet.

Do you imagine that God looks at your sacrifice and simply smiles smugly? No, your labour in God can never be in vain.

So, do not lose heart, child of God. Serve with love and with diligence. Avail yourself for His presence and His work. Remember that God does not forget His servants. He did not forget Mordecai when the king forgot Him (Esther 6). He did not forget Joseph when the chief cupbearer forgot him (Genesis 40:23). He will not forget you!

FURTHER STUDY: Genesis 40:23, Esther 6

GOLDEN NUGGET: By nature, God rewards service to Him. No one serves God in vain.

PRAYER: My Father, I thank You for this truth. You are a faithful God. The Bible says that even when we are unfaithful, You are faithful because You cannot deny Yourself. I choose to spend and be spent for Your sake, with diligence and with love. To the glory of Your name, Amen.

MUNGU HAWEZI KUKUSAHAU

Mtume Grace Lubega

Waebrania 6:10 (KJV); Maana Mungu si dhalimu hata aisahau kazi yenu, na pendo lile mlilolidhihirisha kwa jina lake, kwa kuwa mmewahudumia watakatifu, na hata hivi sasa mngali mkiwahudumia. kwa maana Mungu si dhalimu hata aisahau kazi yenu, na pendo lile mlilolidhihirisha kwa jina lake, kwa kuwa mmewahudumia watakatifu, na hata mngali sasa hivi.

Bwana wetu ni Mungu mwenye haki. Haki hii ndiyo asili Yake na kiini cha nafsi Yake.

Anatufunulia katika andiko letu la mada kwamba ingekuwa kinyume na asili yake kama angesahau kazi yako na kazi ya upendo.

Inamaanisha kwamba kiasili, Mungu huthawabisha utumishi Kwake. Hakuna anayemtumikia Mungu bure.

Kuna watu waliojitoa kwenye kazi ya utumishi. Katika mchakato huo, wamepoteza marafiki, fursa za biashara, na hata kukataliwa na familia zao.

Wamejitanguliza kuacha raha nyingi kwa ajili ya injili. Wametoa muda wao, fedha zao, mikono na miguu yao.

Je, unadhani kwamba Mungu anaitazama dhabihu yako na kutabasamu tu kwa fujo? La, kazi yako katika Mungu haiwezi kuwa bure.

Kwa hiyo, usikate tamaa, mwana wa Mungu. Tumikia kwa upendo na kwa bidii. Jipatie kwa ajili ya uwepo wake na kazi yake. Kumbuka kwamba Mungu hawasahau watumishi wake. Hakumsahau Mordekai wakati mfalme alimsahau (Esta 6). Hakumsahau Yusufu pale mkuu wa wanyweshaji alipomsahau (Mwanzo 40:23). Hatakusahau!

MASOMO YA ZIADA: Mwanzo 40:23, Esta 6.

UJUMBE MKUU: Kiasili, Mungu huthawabisha utumishi kwake. Hakuna anayemtumikia Mungu bure.

SALA: Baba Yangu, Nakushukuru kwa ukweli huu. Wewe ni Mungu mwaminifu. Biblia inasema hata tusipokuwa waaminifu wewe ni mwaminifu kwa maana huwezi kujikana nafsi yako. Ninachagua kutumia na kutumiwa kwa ajili Yako, kwa bidii na kwa upendo. Kwa utukufu wa jina lako, Amina.

Apostle Grace Lubega

Genesis 17:1-2 (KJV); And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the Lord appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect. And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly.

How often do people settle for less because they do not understand this truth? How many times do they get comfortable with mediocrity or whatever it is that life hands them because they do not believe in El Shaddai?

There is no promise that God has made that He is unable to fulfil.

In Ephesians 3:20, the Bible tells that He is “able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us.”

If we live our lives with a consistent sense of insufficiency, it is because we have not understood that the El Shaddai lives in us.

When we depend on people to sustain us and only live by what their hands can give, then we have not understood the El Shaddai.

God is more than enough. He is more than enough to fulfil your dream and vision no matter how big it is. He is more than enough to meet your needs no matter how complex. He is more than enough for your ministry, your business, your career, your education and your relationships.

Hallelujah!

Apostle Grace Lubega

1 Timothy 1:12 (KJV); And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;

It is a blessing to serve God. In our service to Him, it is He who is doing us a great favour and not vice versa.

Regardless of what you do for the ministry, consider it a privilege. It does not matter how minor your role may be, understand that in allowing you to do it, God counted you as worthy.

Some people seek satisfaction from their positions in their organisations. They strive to go higher up the corporate ladder in order to feel more fulfilled. Sadly, some still feel hollow even after attaining these promotions.

You cannot expect to serve a man and achieve a great level of self-actualization. This is only achievable in our service to God.

He is the best employer, not your company. His rewards are greater than a mere bonus at the end of the year. His blessing is deeper than Performance Incentive Pay. His benefits are better than the benefits that come with your payment grade.

Serve in whatever organisation that God has placed you in but you must also make it a point to serve God. Do something for the gospel and for the advancement of the kingdom of God. Avail yourself for the work of the Lord in the understanding that no honour is greater than to be called a servant of the Most High God.

FURTHER STUDY: Hebrews 6:10, Hebrews 13:16

Ni baraka kumtumikia Mungu. Katika utumishi wetu kwake, ni Yeye ambaye anatufanyia upendeleo mkubwa na si sisi kwake.

Hata ufanye nini kwa ajili ya huduma, ione kuwa pendeleo. Haijalishi jukumu lako linaweza kuwa dogo kiasi gani, elewa kwamba katika kukuruhusu kufanya hivyo, Mungu alikuhesabu kuwa unastahili.

Baadhi ya watu hutafuta kuridhika kwa nyadhifa zao katika mashirika yao. Wanajitahidi kupanda ngazi ya ushirika ili wajisikie wameridhika zaidi. Cha kusikitisha ni kwamba baadhi yao bado hujiona wanyonge hata baada ya kupata upanzi huo.

Huwezi kutarajia kumtumikia mwanadamu na kufikia kiwango kikubwa cha kujitambua. Hili linaweza kufikiwa tu katika utumishi wetu kwa Mungu.

Yeye ndiye mwajiri bora zaidi, sio kampuni yako. Thawabu zake ni kubwa kuliko bonasi za mwisho mwa mwaka. Baraka zake ni za kina kuliko Malipo ya Motisha ya Utendaji. Manufaa yake ni bora kuliko manufaa yanayoletwa na daraja lako la malipo.

Tumikia katika kampuni yoyote ambayo Mungu amekuweka ndani yake lakini pia lazima ujiwekee utaratibu wa kumtumikia Mungu. Fanya kitu kwa ajili ya injili na kwa ajili ya kuendeleza ufalme wa Mungu. Jitolee kwa kazi ya Bwana katika ufahamu kwamba hakuna heshima iliyo kuu kuliko kuitwa mtumishi wa Mungu Aliye Juu Zaidi.

MASOMO YA ZIADA: Waebrania 6:10, Waebrania 13:16

UJUMBE MKUU: Huwezi kutarajia kumtumikia mwanadamu na kufikia kiwango kikubwa cha kujitambua. Hili linaweza kufikiwa tu katika utumishi wetu kwa Mungu. Yeye ndiye mwajiri bora zaidi.

SALA: Baba, Nakushukuru kwa neno hili. Asante kwa majaliwa ya kina na yasiyo na kifani ya kukutumikia Wewe. Ninachagua kufanya hivyo kwa bidii na kujitolea kabisa kwa sababu situmikii wanadamu bali muumba wa mbingu na nchi. Mikono, miguu, midomo, akili, fedha na dhahabu zangu zote ni vyako. Katika jina la Yesu, Amina.

Apostle Grace Lubega

Ephesians 5:26-27 (KJV); That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

The Word of God is a cleanser.

There are people in this world who feel sullied by their past. They are covered in the dirt of their past mistakes and are constantly smeared by the mud of their guilt.

Some are living under the dark shadow of the wrong choices that their parents or spouses made. The world has not forgiven them and neither can they forgive themselves.

Is there hope for such men and women? Of course, there is and it is in the Word of God.

If you feel incapable of forgiving yourself, simply give yourself to the Word of God. As you study and listen to it, its cleansing power will wash you clean and render you guilt-free.

This is the very reason why some people walk out of bad habits that they struggled with for long. When they sat under the cleansing shower of the Word, it showed them who they were in God and reminded them that they were not defined by their weaknesses but by what Christ had done at the cross of Calvary.

By this knowledge, study the Word as a cleanser. As you read it, declare it over your life. That is akin to the experience of a man who stands under a shower and allows the water to run over him. As you speak the Word, its cleansing effects will start to reflect through your life.

Hallelujah!

FURTHER STUDY: John 15:3, John 17:17

GOLDEN NUGGET: Study the Word as a cleanser. As you read it, declare it over your life. That is akin to the experience of a man who stands under a shower and allows the water to run over him. As you speak the Word, its cleansing effects will start to reflect through your life.

PRAYER: My Lord, I thank You for the precious gift of Your Word. It is my anchor, my strength and my shield. I know what it can do and what it is changing about my life. I yield myself to it more with every passing day. I declare it more with every passing hour. It consumes every aspect of my life until I am indeed a Word being. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

MSAFISHAJI

Mtume Grace Lubega

Waefeso 5:26-27 (KJV); ili makusudi alitakase na kulisafisha kwa maji katika neno; apate kujiletea Kanisa tukufu, lisilo na ila wala kunyanzi wala lo lote kama hayo; bali liwe takatifu lisilo na mawaa.

Neno la Mungu ni msafishaji.

Kuna watu katika ulimwengu huu ambao wanahisi wamechafuliwa na maisha yao ya zamani. Wamefunikwa na uchafu wa makosa yao ya zamani na daima wanapakwa matope ya hatia zao.

Wengine wanaishi chini ya kivuli iliyo na giza la uchaguzi mbaya ambao wazazi wao au wenzi wao wa ndoa walifanya. Ulimwengu haujawasamehe wala wao wenyewe hawawezi kujisamehe.

Je, pana tumaini kwa wanaume na wanawake kama hao? Bila shaka, lipo na ni katika Neno la Mungu.

Ikiwa unahisi huna uwezo wa kujisamehe, jitoe tu kwa Neno la Mungu. Unapolisoma na kulisikiliza, nguvu zake za kutakasa zitakusafisha na kukufanya usiwe na hatia.

Hii ndiyo sababu ya watu wengine kuacha tabia mbaya ambazo wamehangaika nazo kwa muda mrefu. Walipoketi chini ya mvua ya utakaso wa Neno, iliwaonyesha utu wao ndani ya Mungu na kuwakumbusha kuwa hawakufafanuliwa kwa udhaifu wao bali kwa yale ambayo Kristo alikuwa amefanya pale Kalvari msalabani.

Kwa ujuzi huu, jifunze Neno kama msafishaji. Unapolisoma, litangaze juu ya maisha yako. Hiyo ni sawa na uzoefu wa mtu ambaye anasimama chini ya kuoga na kuruhusu maji ya mvua kumnyea. Unapozungumza Neno, athari zake za utakaso zitaanza kuonekana katika maisha yako.

Haleluya!

SALA: Bwana Wangu, Nakushukuru kwa zawadi ya thamani ya Neno lako. Ni nanga yangu, nguvu yangu na ngao yangu. Najua linaloweza kufanya na linaloweza kubadilisha maishani mwangu. Ninajitolea zaidi kwake kila siku inayopita. Ninalitangaza zaidi kila saa inayopita. Linateketeza kila kipengele cha maisha yangu hadi niwe kiumbe cha Neno. Katika jina la Yesu, Amina.

Apostle Grace Lubega

John 15:2 (NKJV); Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit.

When God prunes you, expect a form of loss. It means that in our consecration to God, there are things that we lose. 

Availing yourself to God comes at a cost and you must be ready, by His grace, to pay that price. 

In this gospel, we have lost friends. The closer we got to God, the further away some people got from us. In this gospel, we have lost family members. It is not because they died but because they failed to understand the kind of people we were becoming every day as we dwelt deeper in the presence of God. In this gospel, we have lost opportunities that were lucrative in the eyes of many but when weighed against the purposes of God, we found that they did not fit in the paths of our destinies.

When you lose these things, do not question whether you are in the perfect will of God. Do not wonder if He has forsaken you. Have the wisdom to understand that it is God pruning you to make you more worthy for the work of the kingdom.

In the words of Kathryn Kuhlman, “It will cost you everything.”

Paul says in Philippians 3:8, “Yea doubtless, and I count ALL  things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of ALL things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ.”

Understand this child of God, it will not cost you a few things, it will not cost you some things, IT WILL COST YOU EVERYTHING.  

As you yield yourself to serve God more, may this understanding work in you.

GOLDEN NUGGET: When God prunes you, expect a form of loss. It means that in our consecration to God, there are things that we lose.  Availing yourself to God comes at a cost and you must be ready, by His grace, to pay that price.

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this truth. I know what it means to serve You. I pledge allegiance to You with all my heart and strength. Nothing will stand in the way of my devotion to You. I refuse to attach myself to the things of this world at the cost of my destiny.  I am prepared to lose all things that I may gain Christ. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Wakati Mungu anakupogoa, tarajia aina ya kupoteza. Inamaanisha kwamba katika wakfu wetu kwa Mungu, kuna mambo ambayo tunapoteza.

Kujitoa kwa Mungu huja kwa gharama na lazima uwe tayari, kwa neema Yake, kulipa gharama hiyo.

Katika injili hii, tumepoteza marafiki. Tulipozidi kumkaribia Mungu, watu wengine walitoka kwetu. Katika injili hii, tumepoteza wanafamilia. Si kwa sababu walikufa lakini kwa sababu walishindwa kuelewa aina ya watu ambao tulizidi kuwa kila siku tulipozidi kwa kina katika uwepo wa Mungu. Katika injili hii, tumepoteza fursa ambazo zilikuwa na faida machoni pa wengi lakini zilipopimwa dhidi ya madhumuni ya Mungu, tuligundua kwamba hazikufaa katika njia za hatima zetu.

Unapopoteza vitu hivi, usiulize kama uko katika mapenzi kamili ya Mungu. Usiogope, ikiwa amekuwacha. Kuwa na hekima ya kuelewa kwamba ni Mungu anakupogoa ili kukufanya ustahili zaidi kwa ajili ya kazi ya ufalme.

Kwa maneno ya Kathryn Kuhlman, “Itakugharimu kila kitu.”

Paulo anasema katika Wafilipi 3:8, “Naam, Zaidi ya hayo, nayahesabu MAMBO YOTE kuwa hasara kwa ajili ya uzuri usio na kiasi wa kumjua Kristo Yesu, Bwana wangu; ambaye kwa ajili yake nimepata hasara ya mambo yote nikiyahesabu kuwa kama mavi ili nipate Kristo.”

Elewa hili mwana wa Mungu, haitakugharimu mambo machache, haitakugharimu baadhi ya mambo, ITAKUGHARIMU KILA KITU.

Unapojitoa kumtumikia Mungu zaidi, ufahamu huu uzidi kufanya kazi ndani yako.

MASOMO YA ZIADA: Wafilipi 3:8, 2 Wakorintho 12:15

UJUMBE MKUU: Wakati Mungu anakupogoa, tarajia aina ya kupoteza. Inamaanisha kwamba katika wakfu wetu kwa Mungu, kuna mambo ambayo tunapoteza. Kujitoa kwa Mungu huja kwa gharama na lazima uwe tayari, kwa neema Yake, kulipa gharama hiyo.

SALA: Baba Mpenzi, Nakushukuru kwa kweli hii. Najua maana ya kukutumikia. Ninaahidi utiifu kwako kwa moyo wangu wote na nguvu zangu zote. Hakuna kitakachosimama katika njia ya ibada yangu Kwako. Ninakataa kujiambatanisha na mambo ya ulimwengu huu kwa gharama ya hatima yangu. Niko tayari kupoteza vitu vyote ili nipate kumpata Kristo. Katika jina la Yesu, Amina.

Apostle Grace Lubega

John 15:2 (NKJV); Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit.

When God prunes you, the third thing He deals with (after your will and spiritual understanding) is your intellect.

As a child of God, how do you apply your intellect to the experiences of the Spirit? If your intellect is not reconciled with the revelation of God, you cannot understand His judgments.

Why is understanding the judgments of God so important? It is what keeps you from offence.

In Philippians 1:9-10, the Bible says, “And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment; That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ.”

Take the example of a man who is very prophetic and God has gifted Him with access to the secrets of men. If that man’s intellect is not reconciled to his experiences, he may speak everything that he sees and end up destroying the life of the person to whom he prophesied or the people around him or her.

In pruning us, God deals with our minds. In this, He keeps us from being so “heavenly useful and earthly useless.” He teaches us that we are dealing with men whose emotions, character and life experiences vary and as such, we must be wise in how we administer spiritual lessons and demonstrate spiritual experiences.

This pruning keeps us from breaking the weak through our spirituality, hence offending both God and man because we are not sensitive enough to understand that they are unable to bear some insights of the Spirit or to understand some things about spiritual life.

FURTHER STUDY: Philippians 1:9-10, Acts 24:16

GOLDEN NUGGET: In pruning us, God deals with our minds. In this, He keeps us from being so “heavenly useful and earthly useless.” He teaches us that we are dealing with men whose emotions, character and life experiences vary and as such, we must be wise in how we administer spiritual lessons and demonstrate spiritual experiences.

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this truth. Thank You because You are my wisdom. Even as I grow in spiritual experiences, I can never offend You or any man because Your Spirit causes me to deal with people in understanding, never to break what must be built or build what must be broken. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

KUPOGOLEWA NA MUNGU – 4

Mtume Grace Lubega

Yohana 15:2 (NKJV); Kila tawi ndani Yangu ambalo halizai matunda Yeye huchukua; na kila tawi linalozaa matunda Yeye hupogoa, ili kuzaa matunda zaidi.

Wakati Mungu anapokupogoa, jambo la tatu analoshughulika nalo (baada ya mapenzi na uelewa wako wa kiroho) ni akili yako.

Kama mtoto wa Mungu, unatumiaje akili yako kwa uzoefu wa Roho? Ikiwa akili yako haipatani na ufunuo wa Mungu, huwezi kuelewa hukumu Zake.

Kwa nini kuelewa hukumu za Mungu ni muhimu sana? Hiki ndicho kinachokuzuia kuchukizwa.

Katika Wafilipi 1: 9-10, Biblia inasema, “Na hii ndiyo dua yangu, kwamba pendo lenu lizidi kuwa jingi sana, katika hekima na ufahamu wote; mpate kuyakubali yaliyo mema; ili mpate kuwa na mioyo safi, bila kosa, mpaka siku ya Kristo.”

Chukua mfano wa mtu ambaye ana unabii sana na Mungu amempa zawadi kwa kumfunulia siri za wanadamu. Ikiwa akili ya mtu huyo haipatani na uzoefu wake, anaweza kuzungumza kila kitu anachokiona na kuishia kuharibu maisha ya mtu ambaye alitolea unabii au watu waliomzunguka.

Katika kutupogoa, Mungu anashughulika na akili zetu. Katika hili, Anatuzuia kuwa “muhimu mbinguni na bila maana kidunia.” Anatufundisha kwamba tunashughulika na watu ambao hisia zao, tabia na uzoefu wa maisha hutofautiana na kwa hivyo, lazima tuwe na hekima katika jinsi tunavyotoa masomo ya kiroho na kudhihirisha mambo ya kiroho.

Kupogoa huku kunatuzuia kuwavunja wanyonge kupitia uroho wetu, na hivyo kumkosea Mungu na mwanadamu kwa sababu sisi si wenye busara ya kutosha kuelewa kwamba hawawezi kubeba ufahamu fulani wa Roho au kuelewa baadhi ya mambo kuhusu maisha ya kiroho.

MASOMO YA ZIADA: Wafilipi 1:9-10, Matendo 24:16

UJUMBE MKUU: Katika kutupogoa, Mungu anashughulika na akili zetu. Katika hili, Anatuzuia kuwa “muhimu mbinguni na bila maana kidunia.” Anatufundisha kwamba tunashughulika na watu ambao hisia zao, tabia na uzoefu wa maisha hutofautiana na kwa hivyo, lazima tuwe na hekima katika jinsi tunavyotoa masomo ya kiroho na kudhihirisha mambo ya kiroho.

SALA: Baba Mpenzi, Ninakushukuru kwa kweli hii. Asante kwa sababu wewe ni hekima yangu. Hata ninapokua katika uzoefu wa kiroho, siwezi kamwe kukukosea wewe au mtu yeyote kwa sababu Roho Wako ananifanya nishughulikie watu katika kuelewa, kamwe kutovunja kile kinachopaswa kujengwa au kujenga kile kinachopaswa kuvunjwa. Katika jina la Yesu, Amina.

Apostle Grace Lubega

John 15:2 (NKJV); Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit.

When God prunes you, the first thing He deals with is your will. The second thing is your place of understanding.

The place of understanding is in how we connect to the Spirit of revelation. God deals with your understanding because this defines how you relate with Him.

All of us are at different levels in the way we understand God. We see Him differently, based on our experiences with Him and how yielded we are to His Word and to His presence. 

As He consecrates you, He deals with your vision of Him, that is, how you see Him. A pruned Christian does not see God the way that an unpruned Christian would. 

For example, certain things or people in our lives are a hindrance to how we must see God. Because they make us dependent on them and not the Lord. When He takes them away, it affords us the opportunity to see Him as our source of provision, wisdom and strength. When this happens, a pruned Christian sees elevation while an unpruned Christian sees suffering because He cannot see the love of God in this form of chastisement. 

Pruning causes us to see God in the purity of the Spirit. This purity means that we see Him how He wants us to see Him and not through the lens of our own hopes, desires and aspirations. 

FURTHER STUDY: Ephesians 1:17-19, Proverbs 21:16

GOLDEN NUGGET: Pruning causes us to see God in the purity of the Spirit. This purity means that we see Him how He wants us to see Him and not through the lens of our own hopes, desires and aspirations. 

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this truth. I thank You for the Spirit of revelation that unveils my eyes to see You with purity. I understand You deeper than what circumstances can communicate because I am pruned. I am not swayed by events but look beyond them to Your plans and purposes because my vision of You is clear. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

KUPOGOLEWA NA MUNGU – 3

Mtume Grace Lubega

Yohana 15:2 (NKJV); Kila tawi ndani Yangu ambalo halizai matunda Yeye huchukua; na kila tawi linalozaa matunda Yeye hupogoa, ili kuzaa matunda zaidi.

Wakati Mungu anakupogoa, jambo la kwanza analoshughulika nalo ni mapenzi yako. Jambo la pili ni nafasi yako ya kuelewa.

Mahali pa ufahamu ni katika jinsi tunavyoshiriki na Roho wa ufunuo. Mungu anashughulika na ufahamu wako kwa sababu unafafanua jinsi unavyohusiana Naye.

Sisi sote tuko katika viwango tofauti katika njia tunayomelewa Mungu. Tunamwona tofauti, kulingana na uzoefu wetu Naye na jinsi tulivyojitolea kwa Neno Lake na uwepo Wake.

Anapokutia wakfu, Yeye hushughulika na maono yako kwake, yaani, jinsi unavyomwona. Mkristo aliyepogolewa haoni Mungu kama vile Mkristo asiyepogolewa.

Kwa mfano, baadhi ya mambo au watu katika maisha yetu ni kizuizi cha jinsi tunapaswa kumwona Mungu. Kwa sababu wanatufanya tuwategemee na sio Bwana. Anapowaondoa, inatupa fursa ya kumwona kama chanzo chetu cha riziki, hekima na nguvu. Wakati hili linatokea, Mkristo aliyepogolewa anaona mwinuko wakati Mkristo asiyepogolewa anaona mateso kwa sababu hawezi kuona upendo wa Mungu katika aina hii ya kuadhibu.

Kupogoa kunasababisha tumwone Mungu katika usafi wa Roho. Usafi huu unamaanisha kwamba tunamwona jinsi Anavyotaka tumwone Yeye na sio kupitia lensi za matumaini yetu wenyewe, tamaa na matarajio yetu.

MASOMO YA ZIADA: Waefeso 1:17-19, Mithali 21:16

UJUMBE MKUU: Kupogoa kunasababisha tumwone Mungu katika usafi wa Roho. Usafi huu unamaanisha kwamba tunamwona jinsi Anavyotaka tumwone Yeye na sio kupitia lensi za matumaini yetu wenyewe, tamaa na matarajio yetu.

SALA: Baba Mpenzi, Nakushukuru kwa kweli hii. Ninakushukuru kwa Roho wa ufunuo ambaye anafunua macho yangu kukuona kwa usafi. Ninakuelewa kwa kina zaidi ya hali yoyote kwa sababu nimepogolewa. Sipeperushwi na matukio lakini ninaangalia zaidi yazo kwa mipango na madhumuni Yako kwa sababu maono yangu Kwako yako wazi. Katika jina la Yesu, Amina.

Apostle Grace Lubega

John 15:2 (NKJV); Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit.

Pruning is a form of consecration by God. The first thing that He consecrates is your will.

No man that is pruned by God is a drifter, doing as he pleases and going where he wishes. A pruned Christian is one whose will has been sanctified by God. This sanctification subjects the will of that man to the will of God.

Burdened by the implications of His coming death, Jesus in Luke 22:42 cries, “Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.” This was the heart of a man who had been pruned by God. His life was not about the suffering ahead of Him but about God’s desires and purposes.

In John 21:18 (NIV), Christ extends this same lesson to Simon Peter and says, “Very truly I tell you, when you were younger you dressed yourself and went where you wanted; but when you are old you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will dress you and lead you where you do not want to go.”

When your will is consecrated to God, you are preserved from the mistakes that many make in pursuit of their own selfish lusts and desires. This pruning by God preserves you on the course of your destiny because He takes you where He wants you to go, with people He wants you to be with, doing the things that He wants you to do.

FURTHER STUDY: Luke 22:42, John 21:18

GOLDEN NUGGET: No man that is pruned by God is a drifter, doing as he pleases and going where he wishes. A pruned Christian is one whose will has been sanctified by God. This sanctification subjects the will of that man to the will of God.

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this truth. I stand in the assurance of one who is led by You. You are in charge of my destiny. My heart is fully yielded to You. Wherever You send me I go. Your desires are my desires and Your plans are my plans. This is my story and the song of my life. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Apostle Grace Lubega

John 15:2 (NKJV); Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit.

If you want to produce fruit in any area of your life, expect to be pruned by God. 

Pruning is done by removing certain dead or useless aspects of a plant. As a child of God, the Bible calls you the planting of the Lord (Isaiah 61:3). When He prunes you, there are certain aspects of your life that He cuts off and gets rid of.

Pruning is done for different reasons. It is done to improve the yield or the quality of the plant, to control the direction of its growth or to improve its health.

God is very interested in the quality of the Christian that you become. He does not want you to merely be one among so many, as such He prunes you. This means that pruning makes us distinctive in our Christian walk. 

God is deeply invested in your destiny and in the direction that your life must take. He prunes us in order to keep us on the right course. There are things that must leave your life for you to stay focused on where God is taking you.

Your health as a Christian is important to God. By this, I do not mean spiritual health only but the beauty of what comes out of you. Every child of God has been created for greatness. Unfortunately, there are things in our lives that get in the way of this great calling and make us settle for mediocrity. When God prunes us,  He gets rid of these unnecessary weights in order to free our spirits and minds for the endless liberties that He has left at our disposal.

Your heart must be open to the pruning of the Lord. You must have wisdom to recognise that some things that happen to you are as a result of this pruning. This way, you will not fight it because you assume it is the attack of the enemy but will yield yourself to God so that He can deal with you in the ways He knows best.

Hallelujah!

FURTHER STUDY: Isaiah 61:3, Hebrews 12:10-11

GOLDEN NUGGET: Your heart must be open to the pruning of the Lord. You must have wisdom to recognise that some things that happen to you are as a result of this pruning. This way, you will not fight it because you assume it is the attack of the enemy but will yield yourself to God so that He can deal with you in the ways He knows best.

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this truth. I embrace it as my portion in You because I desire to grow. My heart and spirit are open to You as You lead me and deal with me. If you must bend or break me, do so. If I must die to the things that I cling to, may I die to them and may they die to me.  By this understanding, I grow and bear excellent fruit, to the glory of Your name, Amen.

Apostle Grace Lubega

John 15:7 (KJV); If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.

The spiritual realm is synchronised for any man who has learnt how to abide in God and to stay consistently present to Him.

It is for this reason that in our theme scripture, the Bible says that if you abide in Christ and His words abide in you, you shall ask what you will and it shall be done unto you.

Sometimes people struggle with receiving answers to their prayers because their prayers are one-off experiences, they have not learnt how to abide in Christ.

It is for this same reason that others are very inconsistent in their success and growth. Such people find themselves fruitful and increasing in certain aspects of their lives today and plunging to loss the next day. One day they are celebrating the goodness of God and the next day they are lamenting why nothing they do achieves lasting success.

This inability to be consistent in success in one’s life is a consequence of inconsistency in one’s availability to the presence of God.

Abiding in God and allowing His words to abide causes the synchronicities of the Spirit to work in your favour. You will always find yourself in the right place, at the right time and with the right people.

FURTHER STUDY: Psalm 37:4, John 15:16

GOLDEN NUGGET: Abiding in God and allowing His words to abide causes the synchronicities of the Spirit to work in your favour. You will always find yourself in the right place, at the right time and with the right people.

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this truth. I thank You for the grace to access Your presence at all times. I yield my spirit to You and set my mind on You, no matter where I am and what I am doing. I am consistent in prayer and communion and live in Your Word. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

KUHUSU KUKAA

Mtume Grace Lubega
 
Yohana 15:7 (KJV); Ninyi mkikaa ndani yangu, na maneno yangu yakikaa ndani yenu, ombeni mtakalo lote nanyi mtatendewa.

Ulimwengu wa kiroho umesawazishwa kwa mtu yeyote ambaye amejifunza jinsi ya kukaa katika Mungu na kukaa mbele zake mara kwa mara.
 
Ni kwa sababu hii kwamba katika andiko letu kuu, Biblia inasema kwamba mkikaa ndani ya Kristo na maneno Yake yakae ndani yenu, mtauliza mtakalo na yatafanywa kwenu.
 
Wakati mwingine watu hupambana na kupokea majibu ya maombi yao kwa sababu maombi yao ni uzoefu wa wakati mmoja, hawajajifunza jinsi ya kukaa katika Kristo.
 
Ni kwa sababu hii kwamba wengine hawaendani sana na mafanikio yao na kukua wao. Watu kama hao wanajikuta wakizaa matunda na kuongezeka katika baadhi ya vipengele vya maisha yao leo na kupoteza yote ghafla siku inayofuata. Siku moja wanasherehekea wema wa Mungu na siku inayofuata wanaomboleza kwa nini hakuna chochote wanachofanya kinachofanikisha mafanikio ya kudumu.
 
Kutokuwa na uwezo huu wa kuwa thabiti katika mafanikio katika maisha ya mtu ni matokeo yakutopatikana kwake mara kwa mara kwa uwepo wa Mungu.
 
Kukaa katika Mungu na kuruhusu maneno Yake kukaa husababisha usawa wa Roho kufanya kazi kwa niaba yako. Daima utajikuta mahali panaofaa, kwa wakati unaofaa na kwa watu wanaofaa.
 
MASOMO YA ZIADA: Zaburi 37:4, Yohana 15:16

Ninatoa roho yangu Kwako na kuweka mawazo yangu juu Yako, bila kujali niko wapi na ninafanya nini. Mimi ni thabiti katika maombi na ushirika na ninaishi katika Neno Lako. Katika jina la Yesu, Amina.

Genesis 21:9-11 (KJV); And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she had born unto Abraham, mocking. Wherefore she said unto Abraham, Cast out this bondwoman and her son: for the son of this bondwoman shall not be heir with my son, even with Isaac. And the thing was very grievous in Abraham’s sight because of his son.

Abraham was faced with a serious dilemma, which was a result of his decision to have a child outside the plan that God had for his life.

He found himself with two sons: one of the promise and the other not of the promise. He had to deal with the tough instruction to cast out his son, his blood and his own seed.

Abraham’s grief is not unlike the experience of some people today. They find themselves struggling with the instruction of God to let go of one of two things that look alike yet the fact is that one of those things is of the promise of God and the other is not.

As such, they may be confused: both look like jobs but one is a job you got because you thought God had delayed in fulfilling His plans for you while the other job is in the will of God for your life. They both look like ministries, but one you got into without God’s instruction and now He is calling you to the real thing.

For some people, it is their relationships. You have gotten too deeply involved with a person God does not want you to marry because you were tired of being single, now the right person has come along and you feel conflicted.

The lesson herein is that when God promises you something, stick to His way. He has promised in His Word to lead us in the path of life (Psalm 16:11).

His name be praised!

PRAYER: Loving Father, I thank You for this truth. I know that You order my steps in the paths of righteousness. I wait on You at all times. By this wisdom, I walk in Your perfect will for my life. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Okutandika 21:9-11 (KJV); Saara yaareeba omwana wa Hagari Omunyamisrikazi, ou yaazairweho Abrahamu, naazaana n’omutabani. Nikyo yaagiriire Abrahamu ati: Binga ogu muzaana n’omwana we; ahakuba omwana w’ogu muzaanakazi tarihungura n’omwana wangye Isaaka. Ekigambo ekyo kyagwisa kubi Abrahamu ahabw’omwana we.

Apostle Grace Lubega

Genesis 16:1-4 (KJV); Now Sarai Abram’s wife bare him no children: and she had an handmaid, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar. And Sarai said unto Abram, Behold now, the Lord hath restrained me from bearing: I pray thee, go in unto my maid; it may be that I may obtain children by her. And Abram hearkened to the voice of Sarai. And Sarai Abram’s wife took Hagar her maid the Egyptian, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife. And he went in unto Hagar, and she conceived: and when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.

Sometimes, when people feel delayed in particular aspects of their lives, they are tempted to compromise in order to obtain the things they long for.

Sarah, desperately in need of a child, chose this path. She urged her husband to have a child with Hagar, her maid.

Even in our world today, many people are driven by desperation to cut corners. How many women have fallen into the jaws of witchcraft simply because they want a child? How many businessmen or women have tainted their legacies with corruption simply because they wanted to get rich? How many employees have destroyed their careers because they wanted to improve their livelihoods?

But you should never be deceived, child of God, that compromise is without a cost. It does have a cost.

Sarah had to suffer the mockery of her maid because she had chosen the path of compromise. She also had to deal with the mockery of Ishmael, the fruit of her actions.

The life we have been called to is a life of faith. People of faith never get desperate. If you ever find yourself within the borders of desperation, understand that you have stepped out of the realm of faith.

When in such a place, remind yourself to rest in God. It is when we are at rest that we win.

FURTHER STUDY: Hebrews 10:39, Hebrews 4:10

GOLDEN NUGGET: The life we have been called to is a life of faith. People of faith never get desperate.

PRAYER: My Lord, I thank You for this truth. I thank You for the wisdom to live my life and to make decisions that bring glory to Your name. I am a child of faith and will never be driven by desperation. In all circumstances, I function in the rest which is of God. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
