And God Said: Light
And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. Gen.1:3
Every Word God says does not go without accomplishing what God has sent it to do. ‘And God said, Let there be light: and there was light’. Be assured that every Word God has said concerning you will definitely complete its purpose in your life. What God has said, He is saying and He will continue to say. Take God’s Word and personalize it, are you experiencing darkness in any part of Read the rest of this entry
Keys to Please II
God blesses those whose hearts are pure, for they will see God. Matt.5:8
Guard your heart because your life flows from your heart. What you do shows the state of your heart. I am sure you hear this often, people being corrected perhaps for the way they dress and they immediately say ‘God sees my heart’. God is saying you need to get that heart right because your life flows from your heart. Your heart explains why you ask God for what you ask for.
The heart explains why you really brought that need to God in prayer. This may seem simple but it will change your life – check your heart. When the pressure of life comes, because it will come, you must guard your heart with all that you have. If you succeeded in guarding your heart, the springs of life will yet flow again. However, if your heart gets corrupt in the process [defiled or hardened], then God has a problem with that. The reason why a number of us are where we are today, devoid of progress, is because of our hearts. Some people have such an unforgiving heart. You have chosen not to forgive the man that you can see but you are asking God for forgiveness. God wants you to forgive and not payback evil for evil. Unforgiveness is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die. God does not want us to rejoice when He is dealing with our enemies or those that are against us. Forgiveness must be total, even between men, because if you rejoice at their suffering, God will stop their suffering. He will start to bless them before your eyes. Be gracious, this is what God wants. Are you in agreement with God, can you say that in your life you are in agreement with God and walking with God and pleasing him.
Prayer: Lord, please teach me complete forgiveness. I choose to agree with You and please You all my days in Jesus Name.
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
