Absolute Love
“But God showed His great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners” Rom.5:8.
Some people have become so entangled with competing that it has become full blown rivalry. Rivalry about different political camps for instance has led to siblings turning their back on each other. Politicians will come and go and after they have gone your brother still remains your brother. For some people it is the football club they support that has resulted in full-blown marital problems. The husband and wife go to club to watch a match together, but because the Read the rest of this entry
Brothers Keeper
“Israel has sinned and broken my covenant! They have stolen some of the things that I commanded must be set apart for me. And they have not only stolen them but have lied about it and hidden the things among their own belongings” Josh.7:11 [emphasis added]
People argue about many things especially about tithing. Some ask, “If I do not tithe will I go to hell?” The answer is no. But that stubborn thing in you that can make you look God in the face and do your own thing will take you to hell. Just obey God! When you obey God, you are paying obeisance. That is why Jesus said, “these people, they draw near to Me with their lips but their heart is far away from Me.” So what has God told you to do? Do it! What has He warned you not Read the rest of this entry
Obeisance
“Israel has sinned and broken my covenant!… That is why the Israelites are running from their enemies in defeat [therefore the children of Israel could not stand before their enemies]…” Josh.7:11-12 [emphasis added]
You will Stand and prevail over your enemies in the Mighty Name of Jesus. The word obeisance is gotten from the word obedient. Obeisance is a gesture expressing deferential respect, such as a bow. Obedience to God is paying obeisance to God. When we bow to God we are obeying Him. When we obey God we are bowing to Him. Obedience to God is bowing to God. You must have heard this said, if you bow before God you will stand before any enemy.
Take The Stand I
“There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love” 1Jn.4:18 [NIV, emphasis added]
There can be no transformation without confrontation. I know we all have different personalities but have you noticed that some people like working hard and some do not.? Some students like reading their books but some students do not. Does that change the fact that they are all going to take the same exams? Life does not differentiate. You need to learn the
life skills you need regardless of your personality and Stand Tall.
Person And Principles
“Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” Matt.11:29
The world and the church consistently struggle with understanding the Person of Jesus and the principles of Jesus. The truth you and I must accept is, you do not need the Person of Jesus to work the principles of Jesus. There are some principles that are universal and such principles will work whether you are a believer or not. The Read the rest of this entry

“About that time Hezekiah became deathly ill, and the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz went to visit him. He gave the king this message: “This is what the Lord says: Set your affairs in order, for you are going to die. You will not recover from this illness.” 2 Kings 20:1
Over the next few days we will be learning from the life of Hezekiah. Please read 2kings20:1-6. I pray that everyone that has good news for you but is going in the wrong direction, God will send them back in Jesus Name. In those days, when a prophet comes into a town, people start trembling. Why? It is because they do not know what he is going to say. A prophet, Read the rest of this entry
Heart Affairs IV
“But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him” John 4:23 [emphasis added]
Worship actually starts with what you cannot bring to God. Our hearts are ushered into true worship with the honest confession that we are empty. We cannot begin to enter and access true worship if we do not get to that honest confession that we are actually empty and there is nothing we can really bring to God. Worship does not start with what you can bring, it actually starts with what you cannot Read the rest of this entry
Heart Affairs III
“They entered the house and saw the child with his mother, Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasure chests and gave him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh” Matt.2:11 [emphasis added]
The second striking thing about true worship from the above quoted scripture is that there can be no worship without total humility. They bowed down and worshipped a baby. You cannot come to God in worship and be full of yourself. Do they know who I am? Really, who are you before God? Nothing! And we have the privilege of worshipping the exalted Christ. They were worshipping the Read the rest of this entry
Heart Affairs II
“But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him” John 4:23 [emphasis added]
God is looking for true worshippers! The people that will worship Him in spirit and in truth and I am praying that He finds you, in Jesus Name. True worship is worshipping God in spirit and in truth. Meaning, you do not only say I am loyal to You Jesus when you are in the midst of other believers. But when you get to your own house where no one sees you, you are actually loyal to Jesus. A couple Read the rest of this entry
