About Altars
“A fire shall always be burning on the altar; it shall never go out” Lev.6:13.
Many times when God wants to change someone’s life, it starts like an ordinary day. You may have woken up thinking today is an ordinary day. But I have news for you; today your life is going to be totally changed for good in the Mighty Name of Jesus. I am really excited about this season because there are monumental things that are shifting and have shifted forever in our lives. We have been Read the rest of this entry
Spiritual Insight
“For as I was walking along I saw your many shrines. And one of your altars had this inscription on it: ‘To an Unknown God.’ This God, whom you worship without knowing, is the one I’m telling you about” Acts 17:23.
An altar is a place where divinity meets with humanity. An altar is a place where God [the Maker of the heavens and earth] meets with us [human beings]. Any place God chooses to meet man or man discovers that God is, becomes an altar. Remember the two key things when it comes to an altar are Faith and Sacrifice. Read the rest of this entry
Building Blocks
“Build for me an altar… and offer your sacrifices to me… Build my altar wherever I cause my name to be remembered, and I will come to you and bless you” Ex.20:24
There are two major factors when it comes to building an altar. There are other factors of course but there are two main factors. When it comes to building an altar the first factor is Faith and the second factor is Sacrifice.
The Faith Factor: “And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him” Heb11:6. The Read the rest of this entry
Until You Move
“It was the harvest season, and the Jordan was overflowing its banks. But as soon as the feet of the priests who were carrying the Ark touched the water at the river’s edge” Josh.3:15.
“But Moses told the people, “Don’t be afraid. Just stand still and watch the Lord rescue you today. The Egyptians you see today will never be seen again. The Lord himself will fight for you. Just stay calm.” Then the Lord said to Moses, “Why are you crying out to me? Tell the people to get moving!” Ex.14:13-15. A lot of the time, like Moses we are telling ourselves wait and see what God will do. But Read the rest of this entry
Don’t Wait, Move!
“He looked at them and said, “Go show yourselves to the priests.” And as they went, they were cleansed of their leprosy” Lu.17:14.
Do you remember the story of the four lepers? [2 Kings 7:3-10]. There was famine in the land; the famine was so bad that people began to eat their children. And the four lepers said, “Why should we sit here waiting to die?” they asked each other. “We will starve if we stay here, but with the famine in the city, we will starve if we go back there. So we might as well go out and surrender to the Aramean army. If they let us live, so much the better. But if they kill us, we would have died anyway.” 2 Kings 7:3-4. Read the rest of this entry
The Key
“Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name. That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth” Phil.2:9-10
The key to Jesus’ Lordship entering your life and subduing every other power is in this scripture. “…at the name of Jesus every knee should bow”. It is simple, every knee should bow – yours first. The bowing of the knees must begin with you. You have to be willing to bow your knees to Jesus first. If you refuse to bow your knees to Jesus, the things that are subject to Jesus Read the rest of this entry
Indestructible Word
“For through him God created everything in the heavenly realms and on earth. He made the things we can see and the things we can’t see… Everything was created through him and for him. He existed before anything else, and he holds all creation together” Col.1:16-17
Yesterday, we established the fact that the material a substance is made up of determines its strength and reliability. “But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all men, And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man” John2:24-25. Jesus knew what they were made up of. Read the rest of this entry
Troubles
“Jesus was sleeping at the back of the boat with his head on a cushion. The disciples woke Him up, shouting, “Teacher, don’t you care that we’re going to drown?” When Jesus woke up, he rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Silence! Be still!” Mark.4:38-39.
A lot of us are looking at our life’s calendar and saying, by now I should have done xyz and abc. You have to understand that Jesus is reliable. What He said He will do, He will do. If He needs to raise the dead, the dead will rise. Jesus does not love you less if He does not show up based on your timing. Jesus did not love Lazarus any Read the rest of this entry
Prisoner Of Time?
“Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if only you had been here, my brother would not have died… When Mary arrived and saw Jesus, she fell at his feet and said, “Lord, if only you had been here, my brother would not have died.” John 11:21 & 32.
When our timing does not sync with God’s timing we begin to doubt His reliability. Mary and Martha sent a message to Jesus, “the one You love is sick”. But Jesus did not respond based on their timing. Instead He stayed behind even though He loved Lazarus, Jesus did not operate with the timing of Mary and Martha. Jesus eventually Read the rest of this entry
It Is Well
“The righteous person faces many troubles, but the Lord comes to the rescue each time” Ps.34:19.
A wise man said, when you go through a challenging time, it can do one of three things:
#1. It can destroy you. But I am praying because Jesus is with you, it will not destroy you. Read the rest of this entry
