Is He God?
“Before the mountains were brought forth, Or ever You had formed the earth and the world, Even from everlasting to everlasting, You are God” Psalm 90:2 [NKJV].
There was never a time when Jesus did not exist and there will never be a time when Jesus won’t exist. It is so important that we understand this because this is really what separates our faith in Christ as believers from every other faith. There is undeniable proof that Jesus lived on earth. A lot of people will not argue with that. They will agree that Jesus came, that He was very wise, and that He was a moral teacher. But where a lot of people stumble and fall, is the thing about God –is He God? It is at this point that you hear people Read the rest of this entry
No Need For Another!
‘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 has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God’ Heb.12:2
Jesus is the only alphabet you can use to reach God. The only language that God speaks and understands is the language where the alphabet has Jesus as the alpha and omega and everything in between. For example, if you were to teach a child English, your beginning point would be the alphabets, right? So you would start something like this, A is for apple, B is for Ball, and so on. But in the school of Heaven, in the Read the rest of this entry
Alpha And Omega
“I am the Alpha and the Omega—the beginning and the end,” says the Lord God. “I am the one who is, who always was, and who is still to come—the Almighty One.” Rev.1:8
Jesus is Alpha and Omega. Jesus is not just the Alpha and Omega; He is everything else in between. Jesus is at the center of it all. Even though He is the Alpha, even though He is the Omega, Jesus is at the center of everything. H. G. Wells says, “I am a historian, I am not a believer. But I must confess as a historian that this penniless preacher from Nazareth is irrevocably the very center of history. Jesus Christ is easily the most dominant figure in all history”. Jesus Christ is irrevocably the center of history. The dating system Read the rest of this entry
Lord, Can I?
‘And David inquired of the Lord, “Shall I pursue this raiding party? Will I overtake them?” “Pursue them,” he answered. “You will certainly overtake them and succeed in the rescue” 1 Sam.30:8 [NIV]
The third thing you do when where you are contradicts where you have been, when what you are seeing is trying to reproach what you have seen in God, when the circumstances around you or your situation are speaking contrary to your experiences, is to ask Him for permission to do the impossible.
Refuse To Be Offended II
‘For I tell you this, you will never see me again until you say, ‘Blessings on the one who comes in the name of the Lord!’ Matt.23:39
Job’s wife probably ate with him on the same plate and enjoyed all the wealth with him. But now Job was going through a hard time and this same wife said, “you are still maintaining your integrity before this God? curse God and die” [Job 2:9]. Perhaps so that she can marry somebody else. That’s my thinking because why else would she want him dead? She didn’t say it but why did she want him to die? Probably Read the rest of this entry
Refuse To Be Offended I
“And blessed (happy, fortunate, and to be envied) is he who takes no offense at Me and finds no cause for stumbling in or through Me and is not hindered from seeing the Truth” Matt.11:6 [AMP]
“So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God” Rom.10:17 [NKJV]. Take note, faith comes by hearing and hearing. You will always require faith to walk with God. And the faith you require comes by hearing and hearing the Word of God. Which is why we always advise that whether you attended the service or not, get the message on CD or in MP3 and listen to the Word over and over. Let it fire up your Read the rest of this entry
Re-Affirm
“Jesus told them, “Go back to John and tell him what you have heard and seen— the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cured, the deaf hear, the dead are raised to life, and the Good News is being preached to the poor” Matt.11:4-5.
Sometimes, our circumstances or the circumstances in which we find ourselves threaten our intimacy. “Are you the Messiah we’ve been expecting, or should we keep looking for someone else?” Matt.11:3. Now think about it, how can John the Baptist ask such a question after all he has seen? How can he ask such a question after all he has been through? Remember, John was six months older than Jesus. John met Jesus first in the womb [Luke 1:41]. So John knew Jesus even by revelation [Mark 1:7]. He didn’t take it for Read the rest of this entry
Relational Impact
‘Many Samaritans from the village believed in Jesus because the woman had said, “He told me everything I ever did!”’ John 4:39.
Your vertical relationship with The One influences your horizontal relationships with people. This means your horizontal relationship with people is a reflection of your vertical relationship with The One. If you see someone that is grumpy, easily angered, and always picking a fight, guess what? -that person’s issue is not with you but rather it is with The One. Just tell him or her to go and see The One. When people are spitting Read the rest of this entry
The Only One!
‘Then Jesus said, “Did I not tell you that if you believe, you will see the glory of God?” John 11:40 [NIV]
For a lot of us, due to apparent delays, we have begun to ask the same question that John the Baptist asked after he had been in prison for a while. “Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?” Martha faced similar delays. She had called Jesus to come and heal her brother Lazarus but Jesus delayed. Jesus then shows up after Lazarus had died and Martha says, “Well, Jesus, it’s too late right now to heal my brother”.

The One
‘And when John had heard in prison about the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples and said to Him, “Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?” Matt.11:2-3
Jesus is easily the most dominant figure in all history and He poses the most important question to Peter and to us. ‘…He asked His disciples, saying, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?” Matt.16:13. Your response to this very important question determines where you will spend eternity. H. G. Wells says, “I am a historian, I am not a believer. But I must confess as a historian that this penniless preacher from Nazareth is irrevocably the very center of history. Jesus Christ is easily the most dominant figure in all history”. It is not new that people have tried to commonize Jesus Read the rest of this entry
