Build Up – II
Colossians 2:6-7 “Since you have accepted Christ Jesus as Lord, live in union with him. Keep your roots deep in him, build your lives on him, and become stronger in your faith, as you were taught. And be filled with thanksgiving.” (GNT).
Yesterday, we looked at two of the things that can lead to faith becoming weak – Lack of INTEREST and Poor Lifestyle CHOICES. Whenever you change your belief to line up with your behaviour, you short-change your life and your destiny. You are to change, by the power of God, to what God’s ways are.

Build Up – I
Hebrews 11:1 “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” (NKJV)
Faith is basing your life on the truth that God is who He says He is and that He will do what He promised to do. I anchor my whole life with no backup plan, my only plan is a plan A and that is God, plan B God, plan C God, plan D God. I am anchoring my life on the fact that God is who He says He is, Read the rest of this entry
Faith Matters
1 Corinthians 16:13 “Be on guard. Stand firm in the faith. Be courageous. Be strong.”
Whenever the enemy comes at you, life throws challenges at you, and when you are under pressure, it is not about your cars, houses, finances, health, or your children. It is all about your faith. Jesus said to Peter, the enemy wants to sift you all, but I pray that your faith will not fail (Luke 22:31). Read the rest of this entry
The Objective
Isaiah 62:7 “Tirelessly pester God—give Him no rest—until He re-establishes Jerusalem and makes it worthy of praise throughout the whole world.” (Voice)
The first phase Jacob experienced before he could walk in the blessing was the Crisis Phase. As it is said, God whispers in our pleasures, but He shouts in our pain. Pain helps us hear God shouting. Sometimes, God uses conflict, trauma, or pain to get our attention. Read the rest of this entry
In Faith
1 John 5:4-5 “You see, every child of God overcomes the world, for our faith is the victorious power that triumphs over the world. So who are the world conquerors, defeating its power? Those who believe that Jesus is the Son of God.” (TPT)
So, when choosing or joining a team, look out for and Choose People Who Want To Love And Serve God. Secondly, Choose People Committed To Growing In Character. Thirdly, Choose People Who Do What Is Right Even When It Is Hard. Read the rest of this entry
The Advantage
Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 “Two people are better than one, because they get more done by working together. If one falls down, the other can help him up. But it is bad for the person who is alone and falls, because no one is there to help.”
Your community determines your anointing and influences the heights you can attain. What about the people in community who are not making progress? Well, those are exceptions, but my prayer is that their own lives will also change because of what God is doing with the rest of us in the Name of Jesus. Read the rest of this entry
Faith Over Fear
Hebrews 11:27 “By faith, Moses left Egypt, not fearing the king’s anger; he persevered because he saw Him who is invisible.” (NIV, emphasis added)
Moses made four life-shaping choices and so far, we have looked at three which are, Refuse To Be Defined By Others, Choose Short-term Pain For Long-term Gain, Choose What God Values, Over What Culture Values. And the fourth life-shaping choice Moses made was he Chose To Live By Faith, Not By Fear! Choose to live by faith and not by fear. Read the rest of this entry
Choices
Haggai 1:7 “Think very carefully about your choices.” (Voice)
Over the next few days, we are going to examine the life choices Moses had to make based on the things he valued which led to the greatness that God had for him. And if we make these choices based on the right values, we too will end up with the greatness that God has for His people. Read the rest of this entry
Prized Possession
Isa. 49:15-16 “Never! Can a mother forget her nursing child? Can she feel no love for the child she has borne? But even if that were possible, I would not forget you! See, I have written your name on the palms of my hands. Always in my mind is a picture of Jerusalem’s walls in ruins.”
I am confident that the God of heaven, The One that can open, and no one can shut, will open the heavens over your life in the Name of Jesus. It is important for you to say ‘Amen’ because this is like a spiritual transaction. God will do His part, but you have to do your part. Read the rest of this entry
