Though I was not born in the
month of December but just like David was “a man after God’s heart”, so is
December a month after my heart. If it
were possible for one to change one’s birthday, I would have gladly chosen the
month of December! A colleague of mine was asking me this morning “Are you
regretting that you were born in March and not in the month of December? No
Sir! I told her a lot of other great
people (and I mentioned some of them), like me were born in the month of March! Yes,
everything written about me is great! So, no regret! So why is December so special
to me to be qualified as a month after my own heart? Rice and soup very plenty?
No sir! Though I like rice and soup very much. So why? December is a month
after my heart for 3 solid reasons enumerated below:
The first reason is that above 70%
of the most influential people in my life were born in the month of December; the
list includes but not limited to my mummy in the Lord, my biological father, my
wife, my first son, 2 of my younger siblings, some of my close
friends/associates, etc. And I am extremely grateful it has pleased the Lord to
keep them all to celebrate again this December and am confident that the Lord
will keep us all till eternity. Amen.
Having done a major evaluation of
the special blessings and major life victories that I have received of the
Lord, I discovered again that above 70% of them were in the month of December –
wedding, birth of first son, my current job, major promotions, to mention but a
few. This is my second reason and it buttresses the scripture in Ecc. 7:8 which
says “Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof." And I am
particularly excited as I await more special blessings that the Lord has
packaged for this time. He has done for
me before, He will do it again and again and for you too reading this in Jesus
name. You will hear my testimonies just like I will hear yours in Jesus name.
Amen.
My third, final and MOST IMPORTANT reason is
because December is a symbol of the end of the physical life right here on
earth but which marks the beginning of ETERNITY with God forever. I don’t know
about you but am excited at the prospect and possibility of being with God
forever in eternity. I am excited about the possibility of seeing the mansion
the Lord has gone to build for me and staying there forever. I am excitedly
looking forward to a ‘bigger rice and soup’, i.e., the marriage supper of the
lamb. More much importantly, I am excited at the prospect of praising the Lamb
of God forever! Much more importantly, I am excited about the prospect of
seeing you. Yes, you out there in eternity.
I shall surely pay you a visit in your mansion! Amen.
What about you out there? Which month is the one after your own heart? I will like to hear from you.
Shalom!
