No WEAPON….NO EXCUSES

As I continued to hit the snooze button on this morning, contradictory to my declaration of “I will be up and ready to post IN REAL TIME @ 5:00 a.m.” I actually reset the clock to 5:30 after hitting the snooze button. As a result my 30 minutes of “just a few more minutes” was just that: a few more minutes. I spent more time “setting my clock” and “getting back in bed”. I was only delaying the inevitable-THE WORK.

As I went through my morning rituals (you KNOW), I was running on all cylinders to post IN REAL TIME. I set the mood, I put on some Fred Hammond (playlist YouTube) and the first song was “NO WEAPON” and you KNOW there was some WEEPING (GOD IS FAITHFUL) for the HOLY SPIRIT , HE reminds me of the CONTINUOUS, CONSISTENT, UNCONDITIONAL LOVE OF GOD.   I retrieved my computer and attempted to sign on to the page to post. MY internet is working, but I cannot access the internet from MY computer (NO IP address). WHAT? Can’t access the internet on my personal computer, but was able to access on my work computer for work all Friday night and most of Saturday and I CAN’T ACCESS THE INTERNET ON MY OWN COMPUTER IN MY OWN HOUSE TO POST IN REAL TIME. NO, I HAVE NOT PAID MY PHONE BILL YET, BUT my television is accessing the INTERNET (YOUTUBE-FRED HAMMOND PLAYLIST).

I contemplated calling A T & T and decided against it (NOT BECAUSE OF THE NON PAYMENT) for it may take too long to trouble shoot. Yes, I could use my work issued computer, but using my computer is in itself a testament to FAITHFULNESS OF THE LORD. LET, ME ‘PLAIN, LET ME ‘PLAIN.

For almost 2 or more years, my computer screen was “bleeding” (don’t know correct term). One half of the screen was pink, hot pink. I tried to get it fixed and many stated that I should just purchase another computer. Theoretically, yes, financially, NO. COULD NOT, COULD NOT afford another computer and DID NOT, DID NOT HAVE reserved resources for ANYTHING, ESPECIALLY A COMPUTER.

I saved my work on the infamous flash drives (must know put in google docs). I posted IN REAL TIME on the computer with the “bleeding screen”. I stopped making excuses and used what was in my hand. I squinted and posted, and one day, the computer with the “issue of blood” was no longer. No more “bleeding screen” SO I MUST post from THIS COMPUTER and it DOES NOT HAS ACCESS TO THE INTERNET.

NO WEAPON AND NO EXCUSES-I AM TYPING IN REAL TIME ON THE COMPUTER, I WILL SAVE TO A FLASH DRIVE AND I WILL POST ON ANOTHER COMPUTER.   GOD ALWAYS HAS A RAM IN THE BUSH. HE ALWAYS MAKES PROVISIONS FOR HIS PEOPLE.

KNOWING THAT NO WEAPON WILL PROSPER (THERE WILL BE ATTACKS), WE MUST STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR NOT LIVING, BEING AND DOING WHAT THE LORD DECLARED FOR OUR LIVES. EVEN WHEN WE SQUANDER THE PROVISIONS, EVEN WHEN WE CONSTANTLY QUESTION HIS FAITHFULNESS, EVEN WHEN WE ALLOW FEAR TO OVERCOME US AT TIMES, EVEN WHEN WE PACK OUR TACKLE BOXES and   GO FISHING-HE IS STILL FAITHFUL. HE IS GOD.

HE LOVES me in SPITE of ME and that it is the reason that I can say with confidence and boldness……

Nothing will separate ME from the LOVE of GOD which is in CHRIST JESUS…..”
