STAND YOUR GROUND

Image
Greetings beloved, I welcome you to the month of November. I hope you are increasing in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. This month I will be sharing with you on how to ‘STAND YOUR GROUND’.  In the book of Zechariah 4:6 the bible says, “Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.” Zerubabel and his team of engineers where building the house of God in Jerusalem but the enemy came against them to stop the building by all means. They had to stop but they did all they could do in the flesh to continue but they couldn’t. You may be building something in your life, whatever it may be and you are not getting the results you used to get and things are no longer working the way it used to, you have tried all that you could, you have prayed and used all the knowledge of God that is in you, the Bible says “Not by might, nor by power, but by my spiri...

IT'S NOT WORTH IT: EVIL ASSOCIATION

Image
Hello beloved saints, I welcome you to the month of October in the name of the Lord Jesus. I hope you are increasing in the knowledge of God? This month, I will be sharing with you on what I titled “EVIL ASSOCIATION.”  Many have argued that the company a person keeps does not necessarily have much impact on his or her character. They say many people have become great and successful inspite of their perverse lifestyle and bad behaviour. The one who molded us disagrees with this notion. He declared in His word that evil communication corrupts good manners (1st Corinthians 15:33). Irrespective of a person’s background or lifestyle, the company you keep and the kind of information you consume determines the predominant thoughts that rules your hearts, and they go a long way to establish who you are and the kind of future that awaits you.  The Bible says in Psalm 1:1-4, “Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, not standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitt...

THE SECRET OF KINGDOM PROSPERITY parttwo

Image
Continue from last month’s edition....  The bible says through knowledge shall the just be delivered, which means a man can only be delivered through knowledge. In the book of Hosea 4:6 the Bible says, “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee; that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.” He says any Christian that rejects knowledge will be rejected also. The relationship that you have with God is ignited and put in place by the knowledge that you have of Him. If you have no knowledge you have no relationship with Him, for the bible says, “Can two walk together, except they be agreed?” - Amos 3:3. The place of agreement is in the place of knowledge because if you don’t know God through knowledge then you don’t have Him in you because you cannot relate. Without the knowledge of God in you, you have no understanding of Him. So many people know a...

FOOD FOR TEENS: THE PARABLE OF THE SEED

Image
Matthew 13:31-32 says, “Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field: Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.” Before we delve into our topic proper I would like to first and foremost establish a baseline for these parables and several other statements in the Bible so that we can get proper insight to what they truly represent.  One of the figure of speech in English Language is simile; it is the comparison between two unlike things using "like" or "as", "She was acting LIKE a pig." Based on this example it is easy to understand that she was acting in a dirty manner. So whenever you see the word "as" or "like" in a sentence it is used to compare two different things with the same core characte...

IT'S NOT WORTH IT: THE LOVE OF MONEY

Image
Dearly beloved, I welcome you in the name of the Lord into the last quarter of this year 2020. May this last quarter be to you that which the Lord Himself has structured for you in Jesus name. This month I will be talking to you on what I titled “THE LOVE OF MONEY.”  The bible says in 1st Timothy 6:10, “For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.” In the above scripture, Paul identifies the love of money as a factor that leads many Christians to go astray from the faith. However, the Bible did not say money is evil; rather, it is the love of it that is evil.  The Love of money is a sin just like lust and is common to all men, Christians and non-Christians alike. While lust is a strong sexual desire for the opposite sex, the love of money is sort of strong desire people have for money. Those who love money or lovers of money are those who are willing to do anyt...

THE SECRET OF KINGDOM PROSPERITY

Image
Hello beloved saints, I bring you greetings in the matchless name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. As usual I will like to share God’s word with you in this month of September on “THE SECRET OF KINGDOM PROSPERITY.”  There are two ways a man can prosper; you can prosper the godly way or the ungodly way; Sorrow always accompany the ungodly way of prosperity. The Bible says, “The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, and he addeth not sorrow with it.” – Proverbs 10:22. The Bible also told us about good success in the book of Joshua 1:8, which means that there is good success and there is bad success. I will dwell on the good or godly aspect of prosperity. How can I succeed as a believer? Is it God’s will for me to succeed or prosper? The answer is yes. You will succeed if you go beyond just knowing it but believing and acting upon it. You must make up your mind to ensure that you focus on the word of God and get the result that you ought to get.  Are we not all Christians?...

IT'S NOT WORTH IT: SELF CONDEMNATION Part Two

Image
Dearly beloved, I welcome you to the month of August in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. May the glory of God be revealed in you more this month. Here is a continuation of last month’s edition How do we know if our guilt is coming from godly conviction for a wrong we have done or if our guilt is produced by the devil? When the devil accuses us, repentance never satisfies. We still feel as bad as before. The devil is the thief, he wants to steal your joy, your peace and destroy that walk you have with the Father because his mission according to John 10:10, “The thief cometh not but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy.” You see, if he can’t get us to sin, he will try to make us feel as though we have sinned. Not only does the devil condemn us, we can blame ourselves. Listen to Job’s words, “If I justify myself mine own mouth shall condemn me: If I say, I am perfect, it shall also prove me perverse.” (Job 9:20). The devil prefers to keep our guilt clouded over so we ...
