Conceive And Birth It!

‘Thou shall make thy prayer unto him, and shall hear thee, and thou shalt pay thy vows. Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways’ Job 22:27-28

 

Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do, because you are his dear childrenEph.5:1. One aspect of imitating God is in speaking forth things – call it forth. The Bible says about God that He ‘…calleth those things which be not as though they were’. You might not be who God wants you to be right now but if you stay with Him long enough, you definitely will be. Why? It is because He will transform you from the inside Read the rest of this entry

Read The Bible!

‘And further, submit to one another out of reverence for Christ’ Eph.5:21

 

How many of us would agree with this statement, ‘the man is not the head of the woman!’ Not many men would agree, in fact some men get really upset when you bring up topics like this. Yet the truth is that the man is not the head of the woman. It is in the Bible [Eph.5:22]. Yes, the husband is the head of his wife but every man is not the head of every woman. Haven’t you noticed that you are not the head of my wife? Read the rest of this entry

A New Dawn!

The people will no longer quote this proverb: the parents have eaten sour grapes, but their children’s mouths pucker at the taste. All people will die for their own sins – those who eat the sour grapes will be the ones whose mouths will pucker’ Jer. 31:29 -30.

 

There are people who are stuck in yesterday but by no fault of theirs. It is because they are victims of an ancestral cycle, a cycle that just keeps going round in their family. Today that cycle will be broken in your life in the Mighty Name of Jesus. Believe me! Stop trying to ration it out because of the number of deliverances you have gone for. Don’t be like that man by the pool. Just believe that the cycle has Read the rest of this entry

What Is Your Goal?

‘I want to know Christ and experience the mighty power that raised him from the dead. I want to suffer with him, sharing in his death, so that one way or another I will experience the resurrection from the dead!’ Phil.3:10-11

 

What are those things that you considered valuable before you met Christ? After you met Him are they still that valuable? ‘For his sake I have discarded everything else, counting it all as garbage, so that I could gain Christ Phil.3:8. What must you count as garbage today? No one in his/her right senses wants to keep garbage consistently in the house. As soon as you identify it as garbage, the next instinct is to throw it out. We have come to the beginning of another year and while we must not take our focus off being thankful to Read the rest of this entry

Make God Happy

‘So all of us who have had that veil removed can see and reflect the glory of the Lord. And the Lord—who is the Spirit—makes us more and more like him as we are changed into his glorious image’ 2 Cor.3:18.

 

While praying, I often say thank you to the Lord for choosing me because I realize that in truth I could never have chosen Him. You too must understand that Jesus found you first and it was He who refused to let go. You can love Him because He first loved you. It is with this same confidence that we also as Matthew did arrange for the people in our lives to meet with Jesus knowing that He already has His eyes on them. Found people find people! Mathew arranged a dinner party. Think about it, it was a usual thing for his friends to Read the rest of this entry

Attracting Jesus

‘Then he added, “Now go and learn the meaning of this Scripture: ‘I want you to show mercy, not offer sacrifices.’ For I have come to call not those who think they are righteous, but those who know they are sinners.” Matt.9:13

 

Later, Matthew invited Jesus and his disciples to his home as dinner guests, along with many tax collectors and other disreputable sinners. But when the Pharisees saw this, they asked his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with such scum?” When Jesus heard this, he said, “Healthy people don’t need a doctor—sick people do’ Matt.9:10-12. People are quick to point accusing fingers at people in church when they see them step out of line. But guess what, it is because there are a lot of sick people in the church. They may come in Read the rest of this entry

Remember

‘Remember how the LORD your God led you through the wilderness for these forty years, humbling you and testing you to prove your character, and to find out whether or not you would obey his commands’ Deut.8:2

 

If you see a judgmental person, you have seen somebody that has forgotten. If you come across a Christian that is irritable with someone that is far from God, someone that is not dressing well, or behaving properly. When you come across a Christian that this puts off totally and now goes around with a ‘holier than thou’ attitude, you have met a Christian who has forgotten. In fact, you have met an ungrateful person who does not remember what God has brought him/her through. If you remember where Jesus has Read the rest of this entry

Celebrate Success

‘These things happened to them as examples for us. They were written down to warn us who live at the end of the age’ 1 Cor.10:11.

 

The truth is that you cannot love a person you are competing with. So if you are always competing with your spouse, you cannot really love your spouse because he/she becomes your competitor. Competition means getting ahead of the other person. Love means preferring the person over yourself. Competition is the opposite of love in this regard. To love is to put the person before yourself and not as Cain who chose to silence Abel totally. The only thing Abel did was to prosper, to succeed. Some of us don’t know that the only thing you have Read the rest of this entry

Expected Response

‘…Sin is crouching at the door, eager to control you. But you must subdue it and be its masterGen.4:7

 

How did God expect Cain to respond? Simple God said ‘why are you so angry? The Lord asked Cain. Why do you look so dejected? You will be accepted if you do what is right. But if you refuse to do what is right, then watch out! Sin is crouching at the door, eager to control you. But you must subdue it and be its masterGen.4:6-7. God told Cain what was about to happen. Isn’t God amazing? God said to Cain this is about to happen to you. Subdue this thing, confront it, and deal with it. So God rejecting Cain’s offering and rejecting Read the rest of this entry

The First And Best

‘Afterward the Lord asked Cain, where is your brother? Where is Abel? I don’t know, Cain responded. Am I my brother’s guardian? Gen.4:9

 

Sometimes when God asks you a question it does not mean He does not know the answer. Some situations we find ourselves in are questions and we must respond the way that God expects. Read Genesis 4:1-10. The first thing that will jump out at you from this passage of scripture is that it is not enough to bring an offering to God. It is not enough to give God an offering anyway you like. When you are bringing God an offering, never forget that God reserves the right to accept or reject that offering. Remember always to whom you Read the rest of this entry
