There is a miracle in your mess, don't let the mess make you miss the miracle.
~ Patience Johnson
It’s when your plans look dead that God’s resurrection power begins to operate in your life in greater measure
~ Patience Johnson
God is not interested in helping you finding out why you are in a mess, He is interested in fixing it.
~ Patience Johnson
God always sees me with no make-ups on because He knew how we started.
~ Patience Johnson
There must always be an opposition because the enemy always opposes what the Lord has declared.
~ Patience Johnson
I would rather have a man chasing JESUS than a house full of stuffs and garrage filled with big cars.
~ Patience Johnson
Of what use is my going to church every day and still come home and remain the same? Of what use is my attending the mosques and the next day I enter the mall with knives and start slaughtering people in the name of religion.God is a God of variety. He was not stupid creating all of us different with our uniqueness.His creating us different shows the level of His creativity. He didn't make you white to hate black or vice versa. He made it so that we can cherish and love each other irrespective of our differences just as He loved us with all our flaws and our short comings.Can we forgive those who have offended us? Yes and some will say no but never forget that you are not worthy but God still forgives you even till the last hour of your life.If God can love us against all our atrocities why can't we learn to love one another.Take a look around you, you can only see sad faces. Was that really God's intention for us on earth? Absolutely not. But we have remoulded God's creativity to suit our taste and lifestyles and now we are reaping the fruit of our labour. You should not expect to reap love when you sowed the seed of hatred. What a man sows that he reaps. We sowed on weapons of war and we are yielding war in return. We have sowed on weapons of destruction so why are we asking for peace.If you ask me....I will say let's go back to our source. He has never lost any battle. I am a living witness.
~ Patience Johnson
I am amazed upon the many battle that we engage in, be it money, control or matters of the heart, only very few of us knows how to fight in the right way or understand who we are really fighting against. To win any battle you' ve got to have the right strategy and resources because victories don't come by accident.
~ Patience Johnson
All the failures in my life freed me from all my fears so that I can succeed.
~ Patience Johnson
I am a bit old fashion but I believe in prayer, I believe prayer can move mountain. Prayer might not be our responsibility but it is a good starting place. It can give us heaven's prospectives on human problems. I know we need to do a bit more than pray but that doesn't mean we don't need to pray.
~ Patience Johnson
Sometimes what not to do is more important than what to do. Sometimes when you are in crisis, when frustration are high or when you are under pressure, what you don't do is more important than what you do. Don't be afraid. ....
~ Patience Johnson
If you never listen, you can't see. The devil has got so many people so disconnected that they cannot even listen or even sense when the Lord is speaking.
~ Patience Johnson
Christians we cannot be allowed to be fractured at a time like this. There are more of us, there are more of light in us than in the agents of darkness.
~ Patience Johnson
Man's panic does not produce God's power.....sometimes you need to pray before you post on social media.
~ Patience Johnson
At a time like this maybe the world is looking at us not just at a miracle crusade or sunday church service but the way we are living. Maybe they want to see whether what our Master left for us worked for us; there is a counter spirit to the spirit of fear, it is the love of God.
~ Patience Johnson
This is not the first time that the world has been in a mess but you are still God, you left us on the earth, not only to preach in a building but to be the church beyond the buildings.
~ Patience Johnson
Before we can fix the situation, we have to first see the situation, the world can't see straight right now, some are blinded by hatred, rage, fear, scepticism, some are blinded by their pains.We need to pray...pray that God open our eyes to see the problem from the source and not from the surface.You cannot solve a situation that you cannot see correctly.
~ Patience Johnson
The agenda of the Media is not to inform you, they don't care about you, they are trying to show you the truth. There are some intelligent Christians but they can't find them and put on the air ...for instance me
~ Patience Johnson
There must be something that God knows about fear that we don't know. I am sure He knows that when you are in a state of fear, you can't fix anything. When we are in a state of fear we can't talk about anything reasonable and we can't solve anything. That is the problem because the media throws all lies on us to create fear and we fall for it....Number one Satan's strategy of getting some people trapped.
~ Patience Johnson
Be careful the mistake of yesterday always lives with tomorrow.
~ Patience Johnson
How about we be the light of Jesus Christ? There are things we tend to forget when fear becomes the driving force. The world is filled with a lot of questions now; what do we do? Who do we elect? How do we fix this? Some people feel powetless in those ways. Helpless, hopeless, confused, overwhelmed.What do we do?My answer: Stop looking for practical advice don't be afraid those who are with us are more than those who are with them2 kings 6:16
~ Patience Johnson
I don't want to settle down because God has satisfied me and heard my prayers. I want to stay hungry and thirsty for the things of God.
~ Patience Johnson
The presence of crisis does not prove the absence of God. I think in time of crisis Christians should rise up and point to the world on something bigger. The crisis is an opportunity for us to proclaim to the children of darkness what we proclaim in the light.
~ Patience Johnson
God always wants us to see things from heaven's prospective. You may not be doing much to your community but what you are is so important. You are significant.
~ Patience Johnson
Five minutes after something happened might not be the best time for you to get into your Facebook and tell everybody. Men's panic does not produce God's power.
~ Patience Johnson
Conflict is much the same, injustice and inequality is nothing new to our generation only the contest has changed because not only that everyone has opinion but they also have an opportunity to voice it and that is a bit dangerous.
~ Patience Johnson
The conflict hasn't gotten worst but the contest has really changed.............
~ Patience Johnson
I have the word of God and my bible is very interesting, this book was conceived in battle, Jesus Christ our Saviour was conceived in brokenness, out of barenness to redeem a people who were in bondage to their sin. I know exactly where to go when the people start getting confused, trading lies for truth, buying injustice for justice and even when the media starts to show me the prospectives of the world that I am living in, I have my prospective from the word of God.
~ Patience Johnson
I am so happy that I grew up knowing the word of God, the spirit of discernment in me is 24hrs activated, I can differentiate between light and darkness. I put on the amour of God even when the whole world is going to hell, I refuse to join them. The light in me shall overshadow every power of darkness.
~ Patience Johnson
All of my life God has allowed me to share prospectives with people who are different. You cannot lead people whose prospective you are not willing to understand.
~ Patience Johnson
Surrounded by enemies, surrounded by evil, surrounded by darkness, injustice.......don't be afraid , those who are with us are more than those who are with them2 Kings 6:16
~ Patience Johnson
Whenever someone is a threat to the enemy there will be an attack dispatched against that person to try to minimise their effectiveness.
~ Patience Johnson
There is power in the word of God if used properly.
~ Patience Johnson
There is a remedy and there is a hope but the remedy is not in the political party or in places that will take you away from hope. You better run to God, that is the only place you can find both.
~ Patience Johnson
My advice for those of you who felt being marginalised, undervalued and taken for granted; guess what? That is the Arena where God creates Leaders.
~ Patience Johnson
I didn't come from a success lineage but I am so glad that my earthly lineage is not my final story because when I gave my life to Jesus twelve years back, God interrupted my story.
~ Patience Johnson
Parents never you make church and studying the word of God optional for your children. If they are in your house, get them up, teach them the word of God, the greatest awards, PhD or achievements any child could have is to grow up in the word of God. I and my family are living witness and it is extending to our third generation.
~ Patience Johnson
I do not have any trust fund, I have always trusted God for all my funds.
~ Patience Johnson
Gratitude without practicing maybe like practicing a faith without good work. A grateful heart is not enough without a grateful habit, because your joy is not produced by what you put in your heart but by habit you put in your life.
~ Patience Johnson
Whenever you are in transition it is always important to choose the words that you use. You call it crises in your life and I call it transition.
