Abundant Grace Ministries Int'l

Hello beloved teens, I bring you greeting in the name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I know that you are increasing in the knowledge of God’s word. I will be admonishing you on the message I titled ‘True Worshippers.’  The bible says in the book of John 4:23, "But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him." According to Jesus Christ the Father seeks only true worshippers to worship Him, the big question we must ask ourselves and seek to get answer to is "who are the true worshippers?"  In verse 20-22 of John 4, the woman by the well told Jesus that their fathers worshipped in mountains but Jesus spoke of a new set of believers whose service to God will move from mountains, that is from the realm of the physical to the realm of the Spirit which is the heart. When Jesus said worship God in spirit and in Truth He wasn't talking about just worshipping God...

God is not looking for your qualification, He is looking for your willingness, “If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land.” Isaiah 1:19. There has never been anyone working for God who is qualified but it is God who qualifies us just by election. The qualification is not of you but all you have to do is to be willing. Are you willing to submit to Him that He may use you. You should be excited if there is anything God has put in your hands to do because He could have chosen anybody but He chose you. Luke 5:1-4 says, “And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret, And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets. And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon's, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship. Now when he had left speaking, he said unto S...

"For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich."   2nd Corinthians 8:9 As explicit as the scripture above, a lot of believers still believe with all their heart that Jesus was poor and this is so because the devil want us to keep up this mindset so that he can keep believers poor and down, as a matter of fact this is the reason a lot of Christians are poor. How can a poor man bless you? That's why a lot of Christians don't expect much from God. These are the thoughts that play in our subconscious mind as believers that makes most believer reluctant to hold on in faith for all their needs to be supplied in Christ Jesus. Some even are of the opinion that been rich is a sin but I refer back to the above scripture, if this is true how come Jesus was rich and he gave us access to this wealth? To put this in proper perspective we have to understand what money is.  M...

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...

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...

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...

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...
