WELCOME TO MONTH NOVEMBER 2020: The Eleventh Hour MONTH Themed – GOD IS FAITHFUL!
November is the Eleventh (cardinal number) month of the Georgian Calendar Months, and eleventh in the colloquial expression of time phrase called “the eleventh hour” is used to talk about doing something (turning things around or things turning around) at the last possible moment when least expected. And for this moment, it’s the UNFOLDING of any notable or assumed FAILURE or Limitation to SUCCESS, TEST to TESTIMONY and MESS or messes to MESSAGE(S).
For me, SUCCESS, enduring good SUCCESS that defiles odds, is defined in my context as when failure or failed state of being, is turn inside out for ones good in the light of the Scriptures – Joshua 1:8; Luke 5:1-11. It’s the making of the good out of the unexpected point of life journey, that was/is considered a failed place or position. This is possible because GOD IS FAITHFUL and His promises ENDURE forever more. Amen.
“Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught. 5 And Simon answering said unto him, MASTER, WE HAVE TOILED ALL THE NIGHT, AND HAVE TAKEN NOTHING: NEVERTHELESS AT THY WORD I WILL LET DOWN THE NET. 6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake” Luke 5:4-6.
Therefore, let NOVEMBER, be the MONTH you endeavour to acknowledge in Christ Jesus stead that – “GOD IS FAITHFUL” – no matter the life circumstances that befalls you, or might have befallen you, in your journey of FAITH in His grace to LIFE and GRACE – GODLINESS – GODLY LIVING.
More so, let Month NOVEMBER become the Month for your onward and upward trend of THRIVING and ACHIEVING your set PLAN, PURPOSE and PURSUIT goals meaningfully and fulfilling, through FAITHFULNESS (being faithful) as God is, in Christ Jesus stead.
For me, I am a very living proof, epistle and testimony to God’s FAITHFULNESS in all His promises in REDEMPTION in Christ Jesus stead. For Great admirable marriages, homes, relationships, career, ministry and businesses are not achieved merely from structural physical design but from human hearts of dedication to the cause of being FAITHFUL all the way in assurance to God’s FAITHFULNESS. The results of being faithful are the prosperity and good success that we all desire. When we make faithfulness an avenue of achieving life’s goals with God in Christ Jesus stead, we promote honesty, decency, integrity and healthy lifestyles in God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS.
I plead with you today and even now, to take a new stride of an onward and upward trajectory to HAVE FAITH IN GOD, for GOD IS FAITHFUL. Amen. Mark 11:22; 1 Corinthians 1:9.
