This can become an interesting topic. It is amazing that the World is more than willing to accept the Birth of Jesus, but so few accept the cause and means of the cross or even the risen Lord.

The Birth is nullified without the means of the cross. A Cross less Messiah is no Saviour at all. We can then accept that in order to accept Jesus at all, we need to take Him in His complete legacy and position as risen Lord and King of the Kingdom.

A risen less crucified Messiah caries no continued work as the Risen Lord, save we acknowledge his Kingdom in the Earth and His risen Status to the Right Hand of God the Father.

It is then astounding that most of the Earth is willing to say yes to His Birth, but completely deny and remove the Power of a Risen Lord. Is it not amazing to know that the Lord Who's Birth we are celebrating is still alive. More even than this, the Same Lord offers Eternal Life with Him in the Heavenlies. Taking Jesus in the Manjor should signify that His Life and Purpose on the earth signals a reason for being.

The three wise men did not address Him in His swaddles, but rather as King. The purpose for these Kingly Gifts was given on the basis of not what only He already is, but is to be. The message of the Christ will then in no means carry any effect with out its compartment with the cross and ultimately the RISEN Lord.

Jesus Before Pilate

37 "You are a king, then!" said Pilate.Jesus answered, "You are right in saying I am a king. In fact, for this reason I was born, and for this I came into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone on the side of truth listens to me."

Revelation 1

12I turned around to see the voice that was speaking to me. And when I turned I saw seven golden lampstands, 13and among the lampstands was someone "like a son of man, dressed in a robe reaching down to his feet and with a golden sash around his chest. 14His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and his eyes were like blazing fire. 15His feet were like bronze glowing in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of rushing waters. 16In his right hand he held seven stars, and out of his mouth came a sharp double-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining in all its brilliance.

In my inmost parts surely there is a part that can recall all the memories, for some, a time still to come. But for those who have gone before, can tell their story. IF they can tell their story, they would transcribe to you that most of them wished they did more with their lives. But I have Good news for you today. Every day is a NEW DAY. It s not too late. Whether you be 67, whether you be 45, 33, 22 and so on. Seize the moment, like my Big brother is LA says, be fully present and alert.


So it happens in life whether it be a lost love, whether it be a decision you made that you wish you never made. I want to stir you today. Today is a NEW DAY, seize every opportunity to be a blessing. Some of us like myself are BIG dreamers. But now I need to inform you. Your dream will involve hard work and dedication. Maybe you dream about a loved one, and it would seem as if you can never get to the point to inform the person of your love.


Dont wait for the ideal moment, dont settle for second best or a warm body, reach for the stars. You are precious, you are loved. I have never heard of anyone that does not need more love, we are constantly in a place where we want to feel valued and appreciated.


There is much more to living than sitting 40 years inside a cubicle and if you are lucky get a gold watch. Some of us are saving a little nest egg for the old day. But dearest friend, how will you enjoy your money with crutches under the arms and when you can hardly drive a car. What is life, and what adds value to this life on earth, is it your profession, some might say. Is it money, some would say.


I met a person before that said to me, Jaco I have reached all my dreams and goals in life...wow what a sad life this must be. You should always be in a place of expecting more. You have been designed for far greater meaning than you think. How do you perceive life, what is your personal goals in life?


It would seem every time you try and start afresh the enemy reminds you of your bad past, the pain and the shame. This is the hardest task and this is rising above this opinion. I am personally still struggling with my bad past, the pain and the shame which qualifies me to write this article. I have heard someone say the other day, that he does not want to die one day without doing something Big for God. Wow, this is the best choice you can make.


I have made this choice myself at a very early age, and I can today say, looking back, it was no joke at all. I remember staring at a picture of Jesus on my wall and said these words with tears in my eyes: "Lord I will never quit on you" and trust me the Lord took me up on this decision. Your promotion might not come in the way that you expected. Your testimony might not resemble one where you become famous. Which ever part you have received to play, give it everything. Remember, everyday is a NEW DAY!

Now that we have talked about being FAITFUL, I would love to talk about being accountable. Ever worked for a boss and we all know that they have an accounts departments and whenever you walk in there you find credit controllers and the sorts, you also see printers printing statements but more importantly in the safe you would find all the FILES.

Now you as a person also have some sort of a safe where your ACCOUNTING Files are stored. Ever heard someone say: “I wonder what is happening in their books” Now, we including myself should ask ourselves this question. Cause it is what is written these files that will determine your level of accountability and success in life. A company or person without accounting will not be accountable and will not go beyond a certain level roof if you will.

We as human beings need to do some life accounting and see whether you are an accountable person where your life speaks of one truly wise enough to know the difference of being a 1 talent servant or a 10 talent servant. And for those that have not heard Pastor Ray McCauley teach on this, get yourselves the teaching. You say, hey, that will cost me money for the tapes. You better believe it will cost something, but unless you are a good steward of your finances and invest in what matter you will not prosper, It says in the Word. That you will prosper even as your soul prosper.

What am I trying to say, jack your brain with knowledge......NO, get your mind sorted. Now, I am not a brain surgeon. But I can tell you NOW, there is more than that lob in your skull that obtains knowledge....IN FACT I write 99% of my messages from my Spirit....wow. To give you evidence of this, I was brain shocked 12 times....heheh, they shocked the living daylights out of me, trust me, it was a shocking experience...LOL

David writes, Lord renew a right spirit in me. So what is David speaking about?..............an excellent Spirit. This can become a complex issue, since we have the brain, the soulish attribute and the Spirit, if you want to be a successful accountable person, learn how to harness all three of these, but if I would pick the most important of these...then I would pick the SPIRIT.

Where you truly have an excellent Spirit. I don’t know why, since I was a teen ager, I would speak to people, and Biblical truths would just flow from me. Did I study the Bible to have this.....NO. In fact I flunked Bible College twice...ask Pastor Vick Mundy, he can tell you, I don’t last longer than a month in Bible College.

OK, so now we have learned that you need to have an excellent Spirit. And this will produce soundness of mind. Some that know me and have encountered me, would say......Your nuts.....you don’t quit ever....I know that I have a relentless spirit....it is a bit of an issue in my life....I don’t know how to switch off...but I am learning to pace myself better now.

I used to say to myself. Whilst jumping, you might as well jump through the roof. Now, some people jump 1 meter high in church, some 1 CM, however this does not determine your worth or Christianity, but what I want to say is that whilst you truly believe in this thing called Christianity, hey...why not give it ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING.

The Word Faithful can be translated and can be understood an various ways. For one, you can be full of faith, but the most common understanding to this word is the terminology of being a person that is truly TRUSTWORTHY. There are 2 main areas of being faithful whilst we are on planet earth. People these 2 will remain, it undeniable, unrefusable, absolute. And that is being faithful to GOD and secondly being faithful to your Spouse.

Ok, Boys. Lets quickly wrap something up before we continue, 35 and still single? HEH. Let me let in on a little secret, unless you are faithful to God first, YOU CAN NOT truly be a man worthy of being trusted and being faithful to your spouse.

Yes, I know you have hormones, I do too. But I prefer to turn this energy into a positive energy, when I say energy I prefer to harness an channel this passion into writing, common boys, you know what I am talking about. Ok, so you never sinned before...good for you...I have

It will rob you of all your blessedness and God given life, it neutralizes you completely and puts into a place of really being self consumed. Boys, be faithful to God, then the Lord will give you your Wife. This message I hope every young man reads.

Seek ye first the Kingdom of Heaven and all the rest of these things like a wife will be added...Promise! If you fail in being faithful in the small things, how can the Lord entrust you with the responsibility of being faithful to something as complex as a woman...heheheh

Like my BIG brother Tim Storey in LA says, if you cant make a decent burger and be excellent in what you do, don’t ever think you will go to the next level. Some us like myself, loved to fantasize about having a wife, the house, the garden, even the little doggy, its a happy picture. God says I will give you this happy picture, but first you need to take a snapshot of yourself, see what your faithfulness towards God is like.

Its ok....you can dream about these things, but some people are on a constant dream trip, they never snap out of it, yes, dream BIG, we serve a BIG GOD. But be excellent in what you do NOW, whether it be serving a burger at McDonalds or washing dishes.

Who knows, before God gives you a wife, he might first give you a parrot....heheheh, Love the analogy.To see if you will feed it enough peanuts..LOL Ok, now we have learned, be Faithful in the small things before God will entrust you with Bigger things. You cant take a parking lot attendant and make him the CEO of a large company like Bosasa. NO, you first have to prove yourself working for them in the food kitchens, if you can’t stir the pot, how can you run a massive organization as this.
