He is God of time.

I start with a question my brethren, why did it take seven years for Jacob to get Leah and another seven to marry Rachel? is it because he was poor? remember his father was Isaac the richest, who inherited wealth from Abraham.He would have done it like his father, go to Laban with precious expensive gifts and marry Rachel straight away, dont you think God was working out somethings here, again dont forget he is going to be a father of the twelve sons who will build the twelve tribes of Israel.This person need to be strong and mature.His mother again told him stay there untill your Brother Esau's anger cools down.

I believe there are so many good reasons why our promises are delaying.
May be we are just not ready yet to handle our responsibilities, for Jacob it was to be a father of Israel nation, to you brother reading this it may be being a leader of a nation, an organisation, a region(like Euro,Africa,Asia etc) plus many other assignments.
The other reason for the delay might be the battle with our enemies is still fierce,God is sorting out our enemies first remember this kind of battle he said is his, Jacob was waiting for Esau's anger to cool down but who does that to him? i know people can take their life time to forgive so it takes the grace of God. He said Pharaoh's heart is in my hand, i can soften his heart to release the Israelites.

He is God of time and his time is good, our miracles are God's important assignments which he wants us to do, that is why he is watching over them to fulfill them.

God promises

The promises of God are true and he will fulfill them,otherwise he cannot waste his time making them. Who can force him? does anybody advise him?
Our God loves us and he says i will not leave you until i have finished giving you everything i promised you.

SI KHANDA WAMBA

Tadza kudzailambila ili kuti?
mfumu yathu, mfumu ya mafumu.
Uthenga wochoka kwa anzeru aku m'mawa,
Uthenga wopatsa phuma kwa mfumu Herold,
Khanda labadwali si khanda wamba ayi.

Anthunthumila mfumu Herold,
mphamvu zili mwa mwana wabadwa ku Bethlehem,
zaposa mphamvu izo zili mu ufumu wake.
Asowa tulo pogona pake,
khanda labadwali si khanda wamba ayi.

Asowa mtendere a mfumu Herold,
alingilira kuchita choipitsitsa,
afunitsitsa kupha makanda onse ndithu,
khanda labadwa ku Bethlehem si khanda wamba,
ndi mfumu yopatsa moyo,
mfumu ya mtendere,
mfumu ya mafumu,
mfumu ya chilungamo.

THE CREATOR

He made the sun to brighten the day,
The moon and the stars to brighten the night,
The seas to separate the land,
The waters to keep the fish,
and the creator saw it was good.

He made the earth to be habitable!
The seeds in it to produce trees,
He made animals big and small,
wild and tamed,
and the creator saw it was good.

He created human beings to watch over the earth,
to reign over the birds in the sky,
to reign over the fish in the seas,
to reign over the animals.
and the creator saw it was good

THE FALL OF THE GIANT

He went to battle without God's approval,
now the nation celebrate his fall and removal.
The king once surrounded by wealth,
laid on a market place, buried on a secret place,
like a banished villager to an evil forest.

He refused to honour God even at death,
offered money to the warriors so brave,
a deal to dodge the grave,
intead of turning to the author of life,
as one shouts in the cloud;
plead for your soul to God!

Dragged from a drain hole,
like a stranded mouse.
found no refuge in any house,
a king once surrounded by wealth,
gold was on his bed, his garments,
his weapons were made of gold.

He seek no counsel from God
oppressed his people with no concern.
hired heartless foreigners to destroy his citizen,
but the lord of Heavens Armies,
uses the small like David,
to pull down Goliath.

The citizens so determined to remove him,
refused to be under the fierce ruler,
They fought from morning to morning,
they united to fight for their freedom.
they finally gathered to celebrate,
the fall of the giant.

THE FESTIVAL

I started my journey to the festival,
it was beautiful from beginning to arrival
We saw alot on the road,
the wooden art
the hand made hats.
the display of weaved mats
men carrying their trade goods on their bicycles
women balancing heavy loads on their heads
I concluded that people here are skillful.

The palm trees as we approach,
the town so called Mangochi,
gave us a calm breeze.
the warm welcome from the people,
their smiles,
their friendliness,
the help they gave us,
Their characters showed,
they are origins of the Warm Heart Of Africa.

At The lake Of Stars show,
all were welcome,
the casual and white collars,
as long as you got dollars.
The amazing vocals,
from the locals
the voice form foreign artists,
the whole music filled my joy
I gained more than a show at this lakeshore

The Temple Gate

I was shaking with fear,
knowing not what next to hear,
If i had legs i would run,
this is strange,
they dont talk to strangers these!
they are cautious of their ceremonial cleanliness.

they rush into the temple to worship,
and they rush out to their families,
i sit here to ask them some cash,
they usually drop it in a rush,
then off they go!

When this man said look at us,
i quickly lifted my head up,
i thought this man must have alot to drop,
but he said again;
Gold and silver i have not.

My heart started pounding again,
even harder this time,
why did he stop by?
to kick me out of this temple gate?
where will i go?

He continued to say;
what i have i give you,
in the name of Jesus of Nazarene,
get up, walk!
is he talking about the same Jesus they crucified?

I stood up as he was holding my hand,
if he is mocking me i care little,
am used to mocking,
but i was walking!
Jesus saw me at the temple gate,
before i even knew him.

Pa Khomo La Kachisi

Sizili bwino lero pano,
Inu anthu awa salankhula ndi opemphesa,
awopa kudetsedwa, iwo ndi opemphera,
mantha ananditha, posadziwa ndimvanji,
ndikadakhala ndi miyendo ndikadangoliyatsa.

Iwo changu chawo chikhala,
pakulowa mu kachisimu kukapembeza,
ndikuthamangilanso ku ma wanja awo,
amadzanditula pano achifundo,
kuti odutsa apa adzindiponyela limodzi, limodzi.

pamene mkuluyo anati penya kuno,
ndinachita changu kudzutsa mutu,
apo ndikulingalira kuti mwina ali nazo nazo,
koma anayamba ndi kuti;
Golide ndi siliva ndilibe!

Moyo wanga unayambanso kuthamanga,
pano ndiye molimbika zedi,
kodi akufuna chani akuluwa?
akufuna andichotse pano?
ndipita kuti tsono?

Anapitilira ndi kuti:
chomwe ndikupatse iwe ndi ichi,
mudzina la YESU WA KU NAZALETE
dzuka yenda!
Kodi akuluwa akunena Yesu yemwe anampachika uja?

Anandigwila dzanja munthu wopemphera wosaopa kudetsedwayu
mumtima ndinati ndiimilira choncho,
ngati chili chipongwe ndinazolowela,
koma ayi anthu inu ndinayamba kuyenda!
YESU anandiona ine pa khomo la kachisi
ngakhale pamene sindinali kumudziwa

GOLD AND SILVER BELONGS TO HIM

As things are getting rough, the answer is to look to the owner of universe, the creator.
he made us for a purpose he cannot allow us to suffer unless we dont recognise him us our master.
God can cause the rains to fall in due seasons to allow us to grow and harvest bountifully


help us O Lord,
it is getting tougher and tougher,
the answers we get from other sources,
gives us no results
we thought it was politicians policies,
but how can they stop these:
drought,tsunamis, hurricanes,earthquakes etc

as a nation bail another,
the other shouts for help,
we are getting into a danger zone they say,
our economists can measure the degree of,
stopping it they know not.

we can measure the speed of a storm,
but you determine it,
we count the numbers of our years,
but you grant it,
O! you know the number of our hair.

Help us to remain under your wings,
the security here is guaranteed,
no downgradings here
there is Gold and silver in your kingdom too,
we will settle here

KEEP GOING

It is interesting when many people quit business because of challenges like; finding markets, sourcing products, making negotiations, the hassles goes on and on.

If you go back to employment it also comes with its own challenges like; meeting targets, date lines, customer service, time keeping and above all giving all your time.

Whatever you chose to do in life do it deligently, put all your effort on it and when the tough gets going press on, those who seem to climb high the ladder also experience challenges but its rare for them to come down to you  and narrate their experiences.
