Reflecting on the month of June

Starting your first blog can be a daunting process, but when you break through the barriers of self-doubt and procrastination and begin, you will find that it is a rewarding experience.

Do you agree with me?

Over the past six years of blogging, I have learned to persevere and never give up on what I have started because there is always hope for a new revelation when you study the Word of God.

Indeed, the Word of God is the living bread that we need to daily sustain us and allow us to live forever.

I am grateful to God for giving me the ability to rise up to the mandate that He has called me to do.

Yes, I will bless the Lord at all times and His praises shall continually be in my mouth (Psalms 34:1).

Is there anything that I can give to my God for all His faithfulness and mercy?

I do not have an expensive Alabaster box of sweet perfume to pour on the feet of my God, but I can give Him my most valuable asset – my life!

Praise the Lord!

Similar to Hong Kong, Macau is a special administrative region (SAR) of greater China that operates under the “One Country, Two Systems” principle.

SAR is an area that falls under the overall support of one country but has maintained a separate political and economic system.

Macau was once owned by Portugal for 100 years. In 1987, Portugal signed an agreement with China for China to have formal sovereignty of the region.

The country has approximately 700,000 residents. It is one of the wealthiest regions in the area due to its free-market economy and low taxation.

Its main economical source is tourism, gaming, and the financial sector. Read more about Macau here.

Beverley has been serving the Lord since she was a child. At an early age, she recognized that God had a special plan for her life, but it was not until in her adulthood that she surrendered her total life to God and accepted the mandate that God placed on her life. The Lord called her into His Kingdom to be an encourager, intercessor, teacher, scribe, priest, and to proclaim the Word of God. Since then, Beverly has established a blog to teach us to become the oil and wine. The oil and wine are purified and mature products, which is the advanced level that the Lord expected of us. In 2017, Beverley published her first book, Harm Not The Oil And Wine. In it, she described her trials and how God helped her to overcome them, and to live more victoriously. The book also exposed the enemy of our souls with detailed information about his past defeats and future extinction. Wright spents most of her time studying the Bible to know the truth of God’s Word. She believes that only God’s truth can expose the deception of the enemy, and uproot and tear down spiritual strongholds. You can learn more about Beverley’s life and testimony on her website becomingtheoilandwine.com. You can also find her on Facebook and Google+ under the name of her blog, and on Twitter as @Theoilandwine. View all posts by Beverley
