Only a Few Can find it, Have you?

Sometimes when I read my bible, I cry and wonder if someone can understand what the Lord is saying.
I read and then pray for His grace to run this race to the end with the Lord saying "Welcome thou good and faithful servant"
Remember Apostle Paul fearing that after He has preached to others, then he be cast away or disqualified by the Lord.

So you can preach and not reach the finish line!!!

But I roughly treat my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be disqualified.   (1Cor.9:27)


Matt.7:13-14
Enter through the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and spacious and broad is the way that leads away to destruction, and many are those who are entering through it.
But the gate is narrow (contracted by pressure) and the way is straitened and compressed that leads away to life, and few are those who find it.

Walking with the Lord isn't a popular road to travel on, many who say they are Christians but still their eyes on the world and try to justify worldliness will end up in destruction.

We are made for His glory and not for our pleasures!!!


Jesus said only few will find the narrow gate that leads to Life, the amplified version Bible, makes us to know that pressure contracted the gate.
My question is Have you found the gate? Many will find it but would not enter because they are not ready for the deep things of God, they are unable to let go of their self & pride and not willing to leave the world and its compromises, so they will decide to go for the wider one.
The truth is that the narrow gate can only fit those who have being able to fully deny themselves and follow Jesus.

    Matt 7:13 -14 has become my favourite scripture for this season, I want to enter that narrow gate that leads to life. It is a vivid explanation of how our time is. Most of us struggle to be Christians and would rather opt for wordly pleasures, yet the truth is known to us that that's the way to destruction...only that the enemy ensures that it looks like Joy but it is only for a moment. If only we could live by Romans 8:18 that the suffering of the present time cannot be compared with the glory that will be revealed in us.

The Eagle Anointing

In the bible believers are compared to an Eagle,Lion,salt, light, sheep, a city set on the hill but never were we called a chicken, turkey,peacock or vulture. Proverbs30:18-19 There are three things that are too amazing for me,      four that I do not understand:the way of an eagle in the sky the way of a snake on a rock, the way of a ship on the high seas, and the way of a man with a young woman. When eagles fly they don't fly like other birds, they are known for great strength, resilience and tenacity. They fearless fly at high altitudes!  This is what God is saying, there is a release of supernatural grace to fly higher than any man has ever flied.  Its a ground breaking anointing, a pioneering and trail blazer anointing. You are called to be the head and not the tail. Its the history makers anointing! This year the prophetic word God gave us is "Exercising kingdom Dominion" No more will you just take the back seat, ...
