Keys to Please I
But without faith it is impossible to please and be satisfactory to Him. For whoever would come near to God must [necessarily] believe that God exists and that He is the rewarder of those who earnestly and diligently seek Him [out] Heb.11:6 [AMP]
Without faith and your heart, you cannot please God. You need to constantly hear God to know how to go about pleasing Him at every stage of your walk with God. The Word is one sure way to hear God constantly. I encourage you to surround yourself with audio messages and take it a step further with an audio version of the Bible. Faith comes by consistently hearing the Word of God. The Read the rest of this entry
Walking with God
I will set My dwelling in and among you, and My soul shall not despise or reject or separate itself from you. And I will walk in and with and among you and will be your God, and you shall be My people. Lev. 26:11-12[AMP]
God wants to have a relationship with you. Through Jesus, He established a more personal relationship with us were we can talk to Him personally and not through a priest. Walking with God demands two things; first is Agreeing with God, the second thing is Pleasing God.
- Agreement: Walking with God requires agreement [Amos3:3]. Ask Read the rest of this entry
Sole Authority
All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. 2Timothy.3:16-17
You cannot live your life based solely on what people say except you are taking God out of your life’s equation. What if, what they are saying is contrary to what God is saying concerning your direction at that time? While the Word of God advices that it is wisdom to surround yourself with godly counsel; the source of this advice is the Word. It is even more wisdom to make God’s Word Read the rest of this entry
Gift vs. Giver
Take your son, your only son—yes, Isaac, whom you love so much—and go to the land of Moriah. Go and sacrifice him as a burnt offering on one of the mountains, which I will show you. Gen.22:2
Never become overly attached to the gifts and lose sight of the Giver. The building is not worth more than the builder. The builder can wake up any day and build new and more beautiful houses but the building has reached the peak of its potential and all it will ever be is a building. If you hold on to what God has given you and not hold on to the Giver of the gifts you would run into Read the rest of this entry
The key to Personal Harmony
Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in Thee. Isaiah.26:3[KJV]
You will keep in perfect peace ALL who trust in You, ALL whose thoughts are fixed on You! Isa.26:3 [NLT]. The only route to perfect peace is God. You cannot put your trust in the wealth of your hands [wealth which God has permitted] and expect perfect peace. Trust is a deeper level of faith; regardless of what you can see, you believe beyond any doubt that God has already come Read the rest of this entry
6th Root of Personal Disharmony: Worry
‘Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God’ Phil.4:6 [NIV].
A large number of people have a PhD from the school of worrying, while others have made worry a favourite past time. Worrying has become a toy that they relax into on every occasion, during the day and at the end of the day. Philippians 4:6 is a command and not a suggestion from God. God does not want you to worry; a command not to be anxious for anything. God is saying do not worry about anything. So when you worry, you are disobeying God. Read the rest of this entry
5th Root of Personal Disharmony: Sin
People who conceal their sins will not prosper, but if they confess and turn from them, they will receive mercy. Prov.28:13
The 5th root cause of personal disharmony is Sin. God’s gifts of forgiveness and salvation are free for all but you have to accept His forgiveness and ask to be saved by Jesus. We are unable to attain righteousness on our own which is why we go to God in Christ Jesus. In Christ, we are able to access the promises of God because we have been reconnected through the ultimate sacrifice. God Read the rest of this entry
100% Lord!
I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat is planted in the soil and dies, it remains alone. But its death will produce many new kernels—a plentiful harvest of new lives. John 12: 24
Do you just want to be known as a Christian or do you want to live a life worthy of the Name of Jesus. A woman cannot bear her fiancé’s name until she is married to him. There has to be a leaving and cleaving. God has given us the relationships around us so that we can understand what He expects from us. How often you go to Church or how big your Bible is, isn’t a representation of Read the rest of this entry
Understanding Favour: Response 1
As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated. Rom.9:13
When you examine all the cases of rivalry, one common denominator is favour. Either parental favour (which brews bitterness); or divine favour. God has favourites, it may not make sense but it is God’s choice. God wants to teach us to understand favour and as such how to properly respond to favour so that Read the rest of this entry
Self-Righteous?
My suffering was good for me, for it taught me to pay attention to Your decrees. Ps.119:71
I kept myself and got married as a virgin, I’m now married for five years and I don’t have a child. If God were to choose someone to delay childbirth, why me, after all I have been faithful! I know what other girls did in school and yet they got pregnant immediately. Why me? A number of us have experiences that Read the rest of this entry
