Thank you dear brother for your precious message today. I pray Jesus continue to utilise you to reach and touche many more lives.

I praise & thank the Lord for you & your life in Him, and in advancing His love truths, character, nature, being & spirit. May our Heavenly father continue to powerfully use and bless you in Him all to His Glory. Jesus said: "Because I live, you shall live also". May you continue to impart and forward His life to all those who want to follow Him, so they took can live in Him and He in them. So that we all live and overcome IN HIM. Without Jesus we have no life, we have no Spirit and we can do nothing. Without Jesus, we are in effect worthless.

May you persist in allowing Jesus to lead, teach guide and be your good great shepherd. As you have been following Him as the lamb wherever he goes and in loving Him & obeying His words daily being holy spirit led. There is our safety. In Him there is only our guarantee of fullness of abundance of life no matter what we may have to endure in coming trials tribulations and testings coming face to face with Him unto life with Him without end.

Amen! Well said! Thank you so very much for this! That's why we are here to do the will of our father, we are not here to live for our self will or for what we want and desire. Like our Lord Jesus said to them, "My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to accomplish his work." John 4:34 We are here to carry out his purposes in our own lives & to the lives of others. Our immediate family, our associates, neighbourhood, and to everyone God blesses to cross our paths. When we start our day prayerfully and asking Heavenly father to open opportunities and seek and find ways we can fulfil Jesus' commands in our own lives to others and be holy spirit led especially when we are out and about having asked that He prepare the soil the hearts we come across & in sharing the gospel, also practically helping those whom are in need and pray for them, for their deliverance, providing a listening ear, food if they are hungry or a hot beverage if they are thirsty, even financial assistance if necessary or we are able, or being able to provide clothing, being sensitive to that person's need in that moment, and whatever situation is unfolding before us. (Matthew 25:31-46; Luke 10:25-37;Luke 14:12-24)

And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith. Gal 6:9-10

I have prayed for lost addicts and alcoholics and those who are backsliders in their relationship with Jesus, but I have as yet to see immediate deliverance and supernatural transformation, and for many I don't know what the outcome has been from the seeds sown. I have had wonderful encounters with taxi drivers especially Muslim ones sharing the gospel with them and them accepting Jesus as God, not merely a prophet, and I would ask them do they believe all things are possible with Creator God as he is all powerful? They would have to agree then I would ask them so it would be completely possible for Him to transfer the life of his only begotten son into them a virgin woman's womb? Again they would have no choice but to say yes! I also would use their own Qur'an that states to listen to the book that came before theirs that being the bible and many other verses they cannot in any way refute that actually verifies the truths of God's words in His holy book of words of the scriptures. I always pray to look for every opportunity to share the good news of the gospel about Jesus Christ. When I'm in supermarket queues, in the park, or being introduced to friends of friends. Sometimes it's also giving a silent witness winning others over without a word but by being a living walking talking epistle in how we live, speak, respond react in our actions moment by moment. And most will immediately identify you are different even from the majority of Christians, stating that my walk of faith and relationship with God is incredibly unusual, and not like the usual Christians they encounter or come across. They will say most don't have their whole lives focused upon Jesus Christ. I had someone say to me only recently as I shared the gospel with them over a cup of tea, and of course asked them questions about what they believed etc they did say though when I next come around could you please not talk about Jesus and God so much! Lol. But Jesus is the only answer and hope for all the lost, hurting, dirty sinful, and dying being the only way of salvation deliverance and supernatural transformation through rebirth into becoming a new creation in Christ Jesus. We are but Gods vessels set apart sanctified unto our God to utilise us to be his oracles His mouthpieces to speak and share his truths, and through how we live by his empowering enabling holy spirit. But it is all God who affects others hearts and draws them to Him. "No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him. And I will raise him up on the last day." John 6:44
