Echoes of a once wounded but now restored heart...

In our bible reading programme in Proverbs, one particular verse struck me because it contained a big word 'ZEAL 'Proverbs 23:17"Do not let your heart envy sinners,but always be zealous for the fear of the LORD" We need to have an understanding of what it means to be zealous for the Lord, to be radically passionate about the things of God and His Holiness. We need to be zealous for God's honour as Phineas the Priest was..in Numbers chapter 25: "Then an Israelite man brought to his family a Midianite woman right before the eyes of Moses and the whole assembly of Israel while they were weeping at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting. 7 When Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, the priest, saw this, he left the assembly, took a spear in his hand 8 and followed the Israelite into the tent. He drove the spear through both of them—through the Israelite and into the woman's body. Then the plague against the Israelites was stopped; 9 but those who died in th

My Grandma and I when I was still a baby On the 10th of September 2008 my paternal grandmother Susan Gotora passed on at twelve midnight...The amazing thing is about 3 or 4 hours before I had been praying and crying out to God that He fulfill the prophetic words that I'd hate no one and and love everyman woulcd come to pass because I still had bitterness towards certain people and one of those people was my grandmother.. I am at peace because by the time my grandmother passed away about 4 hours after my prayers and tears I had released her and forgiven her but still I wish I had gotten a chance to talk to her and hear her out R.I.P Gran. I am sorry I never gave you a chance to explain things and I am sorry I wouldn't come and see you when you asked me to, when you asked me then I was not yet ready to see you but now I had arrived at a place where I wanted us to talk. However I had forgiven you for not coming to visit my mum on her deathbed and for not acknowledging my mum even

10[For my determined purpose is] that I may know Him [that I may progressively become more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him, perceiving and recognizing and understanding the wonders of His Person more strongly and more clearly], and that I may in that same way come to know the power outflowing from His resurrection [[b]which it exerts over believers], and that I may so share His sufferings as to be continually transformed [in spirit into His likeness even] to His death, [in the hope] 11That if possible I may attain to the [[c]spiritual and moral] resurrection [that lifts me] out from among the dead [even while in the body]. 12Not that I have now attained [this ideal], or have already been made perfect, but I press on to lay hold of (grasp) and make my own, that for which Christ Jesus (the Messiah) has laid hold of me and made me His own. 13I do not consider, brethren, that I have captured and made it my own [yet]; but one thing I do [it is my one aspiration]: forgetting what l

Today is not only a historic day for Zimbabwe but a historic day and the dawn of a new era in my life too. Today I quit my job ...right I am just serving my notice period, I have been thinking about it for a while and have been so dissatisfied with my working conditions and so today I quit. Part of the reason I quit was because I have been making my job look like its what sustains me and yet it is the Lord. Its a bit scary and yet I feel such a peace about. I will use this time of unemployement to volunteer at church and also to study and develop my business plans since I am an entreprenuer in the making...This is the time to start researching and writing my business proposals and talking to the right people and getting mentored by those who have also taken a leap and gone into business not knowing where God was leading them but just trusting in God's voice.. I have hearkened God's voice telling me to walk on the water and I am going to do just that. When God told Peter to walk

Today is a historic day for Zimbabwe, The dawn of a new era in Zimbabwe ….Our two political leaders Morgan Tsvangirai and Robert Mugabe signed a power sharing deal to solve the political and economic crisis in Zimbabwe. It was spoken in 1998 through Cindy Jacobs prophecy….that there would be reconciliation in Zimbabwe and that a treaty would be signed….so here it Amos 3:7 “Surely the Lord Jehovah will do nothing, except he reveal his secret unto his servants the prophets.” I am so happy to see the fulfillment of God’s word over out beautiful land Zimbabwe all I can do is sing Henry Olonga’s song over and over right now because I am ecstatic!!!! Some people may say Morgan Tsvanngirai was the winner of the election and therefore should have all the powers but I still say due to the polarisation , It would never have worked to have one party rule the other. So I continue to sing this song: “This land our land is our Zimbabwe A land of peace for you and me Once born in pain and se

I was attending my cousin's wedding on Friday and having a grand time with friends and cousins but I just knew I had to leave the wedding and go to the all night prayer vigil and It was not an easy choice brothers and sisters, the flesh wanted to hang out with family and friends but I had an appointment with Destiny and so I left the wedding and got to the All night just before 12 and God showed up, and you know the deal when God moves He speaks. There was a word and a prophetic spontaneous song that spoke of God resurrecting dreams and indeed many dreams were resurrected and new dreams given !!! I am sure many of those who were at the all night will testify. My dream is to become and entrepreneur as I know I am called to be a conduit of God's wealth and there to generate money for the gospel and the one avenue I intend to take is agriculture!!! A couple years ago I worked for Mitchell and Mitchell Fresh export who farm, process and pack fresh veggies to British supermarkets ch

Psalm 27:14 reads “Wait and hope for and expect the Lord; be brave and of good courage and let your heart be stout and enduring. Yes, wait for and hope for and expect the Lord.” Many scriptures command us to wait and be still and yet the temptation to run ahead of God with regards to getting married is strong at the moment. I am crying out to God for grace to overcome the temptation to be emotionally attached to a certain male friend who I am drawn to on many levels. I am also feeling a little frustrated and tired of being single.. I have been a Christian for a few years now, and those few years I have been mostly single or either in unhealthy or undefined relationships.. I look around me and I see people in relationships, people getting engaged/married, people starting families and its all things that I long for myself.. worse still being an orphan I have the yearning to be with someone and start a family but this can’t happen if the man God has for me hasn’t approached me. But, in
