THE GOOD NEWS BEARER

"What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; and what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the housetops." ~ Matthew 10:27

Deborah O Daniel (Toyin) is an Evangelist and a Christian Writer. She grew up in a strict, religiously confused household, but found Christ on her own, when it became clear to her that she had no relationship whatsoever with Him and had no purpose in life, in spite of her upbringing. Deborah surrendered her life to Christ in 1992 but kept running from her calling owing to the severe trials she faced and the cares of the world, until she had a personal encounter with Him years later. She steps out of her comfort zone as led to fulfil her calling. She also speaks openly about her childhood difficulties and the struggles she has had in life, to testify of the mercy of God and His awesome power. For more messages and a heart talk on living a fulfilled life in Christ, get the book, Walk the Winning Walk (English-British and English-American) here, offered for free by Divine Literature International, and available to Born-again Christians ONLY - particularly new believers.

Developing Yourself Spiritually

Many who have been running the Christian race for quite some time still chase after other believers to make things happen for them. While they should be working on themselves to move to the next level, they depend on others to pray for them, lay hands on them, and/or prophesy into their lives, for all to be well.

Nowhere is it written in the Bible that we have another Mediator besides Jesus Christ. Neither is it true that it cannot be well with you until a particular person receives a revelation or prays for you. Do you know, without a shadow of doubt that a person will attend to your plight and pray for you day and night? Absolutely not! You are not with them 24/7. Only Christ and you, can love you to that extent.

You should be at the level where you are determined to develop yourself spiritually - a level where you now ask others to pray with you, not pray for you. God is no respecter of persons (Deuteronomy 10:17, Acts 10:34). If you seek Him diligently, you will have a personal encounter with Him as well. That said, some effort is required to grow spiritually. While others mentor you, do your part. Start by studying the Word more - you should have your own Bible or access to one by now (hopefully), get some good Scriptural Books, eBooks, and other resources; listen to good sermons online, etc. Spend quality time with the Lord, to learn at His feet and hear from Him.

Seek the Creator, not the creature, beloved. If you are yet to have a personal encounter with Him, ensure that you have surrendered all aspects of your life to Christ, not just some. May we be guided.

Shalom!
