DEUS EST REGIT QUI OMNIA

I’ll like to share this short piece with you. Maybe this is the only missing piece in the jigsaw of your life? Maybe your peace would have been restored if you understand the rhema you are about to read. I pray your understanding is renewed as you read and digest these words. God bless.

If a sparrow cannot fall without His notice, can an empire arise without His aid?

While so many things don’t seem precious in this present age, our TIME is still something too precious to squander.
How sad it is to look back over our lives and see that we have spent so much time and energy on futility.

I have an inscription on my body which reads: “NISI DOMINUS FRUSTA”. It is a Latin word that means “Without the Lord, Frustration” this comes from the first words of Psalm 127-

“Unless the LORD builds the house,
its builders labour in vain.
Unless the LORD watches over the city,
the watchmen stand guard in vain.

In vain you rise early
and stay up late, toiling for food to eat—
for he grants sleep to those he loves.
For so he gives his beloved sleep”

It is important to put God at the core of everything you are doing otherwise your labour might ultimately end in futility and frustration.

You can’t do it alone. You can plan alright, but the power to execute belongs to the Lord. Proverbs 21:31 confirms this '' the horse is prepared for the day of battle, but the victory belongs to the LORD.''
Can you remember the parable of the rich fool in Luke 12: 13-21; Notice the emphasis on “I” and “my” as he reasons with himself. He did not understand that his prosperity was a gift from God. He assumes that he will live for a long time, and will enjoy his stuff, until God enters the scene and pointed out his folly. '' After your life is taken from you tonight, who will own all you have acquired?'' God asked.

When God is with you, your timing and calendar changes. You struggle less, all your moves become strategic, and when you aim you hit the target!

Psalm 127 tells us of a God whose involvement makes all the difference. Only if you’ll place Him at the core of all you do.

Will you from this day depend on Him for direction in all you do, like Moses did in Exodus 33:15?

“DEUS EST REGIT QUI OMNIA”- THERE IS A GOD WHO RULES ALL THINGS.
