Nothing Starts Without HIM

GENESIS 1: 1; JOHN 1: 1

"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth."

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."

Nothing can start without God. Never attempt starting your day, week, month, a business, a journey or a new relationship without God. Involve Him before the take off and if you did, when you call upon Him in the way He answers you. He is not an outsider or a third party personality in your home and business. Why we fail most times is simply because we did not involve Him before the start but along the way when we encountered problems and seemed to be confused.

God should be your first consultant from whom you receive the required directions as to how, when, where and with who to do. Indeed He instructs you on the right timing for your action. In Luke 5, Peter and his co- fishermen worked all night but caught nothing until Jesus arrived at the scene and told him what to do. He did accordingly and had a net breaking result.

The reason why many Marriages failed after some years of glamorous wedding might be because God was not in the beginning. He is faithful, and when He has started a good thing He perfects it until the day of Jesus Christ. If He didn't start it, He will not finish it.

Consider Jonah's mission to Nineveh. It was God's own dream. Trouble arose in the way but the Spirit of the Lord lifted up a standard against it and he accomplished the task. Now, take out quality time to seek Him and wait long enough in His presence to hear His voice and secure His approval. Thereafter you can run with the dream to fulfill.

As you celebrate this Thanksgiving let everything in your life start with HIM.

Happy Thanksgiving and God bless you!
