IT'S NOT WORTH IT: BE CAREFUL WITH YOUR MOUTH PART ONE

Image
Hello beloved,  I hope you are increasing in the knowledge of God and of our Lord Jesus Christ? I will like to share with you on what I titled " Be careful with your mouth." It's so disheartening to hear many people speak, even believers. They speak carelessly, without thinking of their words. They allow their situations through their five senses determine what comes out from their mouth. Forgetting something, that the building blocks of their lives are words from their mouth. They have not come to terms with the immense consequences of the words that proceed from their mouth. The book of Proverbs 6:2 says, “Thou art snared with the words of thy mouth, thou art taken with the words of thy mouth." So many people have been caught, captured, and occupied by Satan because they have not learnt how to make good use of their mouth. They have opened the door of their lives, marriages, children, businesses, jobs etc. to the devil to have fill day. Are you not aware there ar

If you want to know the mind of God concerning creation, what you need to do is to go to the book of Genesis. It is in the book of Genesis, you will be able to know why God created what He created and why He created them that way. In the book of Genesis 1:6-12 the Bible says, “And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so. And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day. And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so. And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good. And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, wh

IT'S NOT WORTH IT: THE PLEASURE OF SIN

Greetings beloved,. I hope you are increasing in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ? I will like to admonish you on what I titled “ THE PLEASURE OF SIN” Proverbs 20:17 says “Bread of deceit is sweet to a man; but after that his mouth shall be filled with gravel.” Have you tried to eat rice and beans before, only for your teeth to unexpectedly grind a stone? The stone stopped you from continuing to chew and swallow the food in your mouth. You had to spew it out of your mouth. What you experienced is far from a mouth full of gravel which our anchor scripture compares what stolen bread will turn to. Stolen bread may taste sweet but it is a lie. If there were not some sort of pleasure or immediate gratification in sin, nobody would do it. The reality of sin is that it starts off giving you what you want, while decomposing your health and happiness in the end. There is no long term joy or sustainable pleasure in sin. Sin demands that you keep coming back for more. Moses was

FOOD FOR TEENS :THE INTENTIONALITY OF GOD

What God has in store for us far exceeds what we can achieve on our own, it goes beyond our wildest imagination, those desires in us to achieve great things are product of the great things God has placed inside us but because we have not sort Him, we try to achieve these things based on what we see in the natural. We try to make sense of those things our spirit yearns for, we try to give them expression but we fail to go to Him that has put these things within us. You see people trying to achieve success in their careers, homes, businesses, academics, etc. thinking they will find true fulfillment. They dream of owning big companies, hoping to find fulfillment because they think that is the best way to get true fulfillment but every time a target is met a new one is created, yet the fulfillment they seek seems to elude them. All of creation seeks this fulfillment the creator has created and placed within them. Romans 8:19 says, “For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for t

EXCELLENCE PART 2

Now look at the book of Acts 6:1-3 the Bible says, “And in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplied, there arose a murmuring of the Grecians against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration. Then the twelve called the multitude of the disciples unto them, and said, It is not reason that we should leave the word of God, and serve tables. Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.” The first thing they looked for among the men to fill these position was honesty. Is honesty excellent? Yes it is. In other words even though the person was filled with the Holy Ghost and wisdom but doesn’t have good honest character, he is disqualified. What caught my attention in this passage of Scriptures is that He said, look out from among you seven men of honest report. The Bible said the first time they preached the gospel, they won about three th

IT'S NOT WORTH IT:THE WRONG RACE

Greetings beloved, I welcome you to the month of February. I hope you are increasing in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ? I will like to admonish you on what I titled ‘The Wrong Race.’ Hebrews 12:1-2 says, “Wherefore seeing we also are compassed with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.” The race of faith we are supposed to run is a race that we run with patience, looking unto Jesus. It is a race whose focus and end is the Lord Jesus Christ. This is the Christian race. Something else that we can extract from what Paul says is that not all that call themselves Christians are running the race, otherwise why the exhortation “LET US RUN … the Race.” The q

Hello beloved, you are welcome to the month of February. I thank the Lord for you. For the manifestation of His Word and power in your life. May you abound more and more in His grace and revelation in the name of Jesus. In this months edition, I will be sharing with you on what I titled “Excellence.” 2nd Peter 1:1-10 says, “Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ: Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your f
