My Saviour
“May you always be filled with the fruit of your salvation – the righteous character produced in your life by Jesus Christ – for this will bring much glory and praise to God” Phil. 1:11
Yeshua, Jesus, came to save us from sin and everything that came as a result of sin. Sickness, devils, poverty, attacks; everything that came as a result of sin, Jesus came to save us from. This is why it is important to seek God, corporately and individually, and enforce everything Jesus has done for us. You will enforce it and it will stand, in Jesus Name. Read the rest of this entry
Sheep Or Goat?
“Dear children, don’t let anyone deceive you about this: When people do what is right, it shows that they are righteous, even as Christ is righteous. But when people keep on sinning, it shows that they belong to the devil, who has been sinning since the beginning…” 1Jn.3:7-8 [emphasis added].
God knew that there would be a lot of deception about this subject, which is why the Bible says, don’t let anyone deceive you about this… But when people keep on sinning, it shows that they belong to the devil. The key there is, keep on sinning. Do Christians sin? Of course they do; but they should not keep on sinning otherwise, it shows that they belong to the devil, who has been sinning since the beginning. But the Son of God came to destroy the works of the devil. Every work of the devil in Read the rest of this entry
What’s Your Practice?
“And she will have a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins” Matt.1:21.
Salvation is all encompassing. Jesus paid the price for the salvation of your soul, the healing of your body, deliverance from oppressive spirits and depression, and deliverance from poverty. Jesus died for deliverance from poverty? Yes He did, and you need to know that. However, even though salvation is all encompassing, the truth Read the rest of this entry
Beyond Sin
“And she will have a son, and you are to name him Jesus (Yehoshua), for he will save (Yeshuah) his people from their sins.” Matt.1:21 [words in bracket are my additions]
“Yehoshua”, in other words Jehovah saves, Jehovah heals, Jehovah delivers, Jehovah is our salvation. You are to name him Yehoshua because He will [Yeshua] deliver, save His people from their sin. So the word Yeshua actually means salvation, deliverance, rescue, freedom, and restoration. It is an all-encompassing word for Read the rest of this entry
Enough With The Excuses!
“For the Lord is the Spirit, and wherever the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom” 2 Cor.3: 17
The reason you are still battling with that sin which is keeping you bound, is the excuse you are giving. The more you excuse it, the more you are incapacitated by it. Academically, the reason you have not passed your examinations is because you are giving excuses. Who says nobody in your family ever succeeds in math? Read the rest of this entry
What Will It Be?
“So Elisha returned to his oxen and slaughtered them. He used the wood from the plow to build a fire to roast their flesh. He passed around the meat to the townspeople, and they all ate. Then he went with Elijah as his assistant” 1 Kings 19:21.
The third category of excuses is the pride of life – pride in our achievements and possessions. “Another said, ‘I have just bought five pairs of oxen, and I want to try them out” Luke 14:19. The question to you and I is, what exactly is your excuse? If you follow the story in Luke 14:15-24 [Please read], immediately the Master Read the rest of this entry
The Way Of Men!
“His delight is in the fear of the Lord, and He shall not judge by the sight of His eyes, nor decide by the hearing of His ears” Isa.11:4 [NKJV]
Physical pleasure is one of the greatest problems that everyone, male and female, have to triumph over. Of all the three, physical pleasure ranks at the top, particularly in our time. The craving for physical pleasure is also known as the lust of the flesh. The third man said, ‘…I now have a wife, so I can’t come’ Luke 14:20. The Bible says Read the rest of this entry
Be Vigilant
“Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?” Gen.3:1 [NIV]
Yesterday, we learnt extensively about these three things; lust of the eyes, lust of the flesh, and pride of life. And we said these are the same things the enemy uses in his antics. You might be wondering how this can work in today’s world. I will show you. In this time and age, the media is on our case. The media is constantly pumping all Read the rest of this entry
Three Things
“The one thing I want from God, the thing I seek most of all, is the privilege of meditating in his Temple, living in His presence every day of my life, delighting in His incomparable perfections and glory” Ps.27:4 [TLB]
We will continue our study of Luke 14:15-20. If you look at the whole story, you will see that it is not just about the wife or the oxen, Jesus is saying ‘you should crave Me, the Giver of the wife, the oxen, the field and much more’. God wants us to crave Him [the Giver] more than gift. It’s time for the family to go for the annual summer trip Read the rest of this entry
Excuses?
“And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever” 1John2:17.
“Another said, ‘I now have a wife, so I can’t come” Luke 14:20. This is the third thing in the anatomy of excuses. In other words, Jesus, can’t you see that my status has changed? You cannot expect me to be doing the things I was doing before. I now have a wife. People do strange things when it comes to wife or no wife, husband or Read the rest of this entry
