Strategic Relationships
“But you must continue to believe this truth and stand firmly in it. Don’t drift away from the assurance you received when you heard the Good News…” Col.1:23
Every parent must understand the Principle of Borrowed Voices, particularly as your children grow, someone external and God fearing that will echo godly values you uphold in your children. Sometimes, the same things you have been trying to get your child to embrace and do, someone [a borrowed voice] says the same things then it seems they are hearing it for the Read the rest of this entry
Being A Christian
“This same Good News that came to you is going out all over the world. It is bearing fruit everywhere by changing lives, just as it changed your lives from the day you first heard and understood the truth about God’s wonderful grace” Col.1:6
The Word of God is so powerful, rich, beautiful, and so amazing. We are going to be spending a lot of time with God’s Word over the next few weeks as we study the Book of Colossians. Please study Colossians chapter one as we kick off our study from there. Being a Christian is all about life change. The Word of God has come to us to change our lives. If who you were Read the rest of this entry
Who Are You?
“I AM the True Vine, and My Father is the Vinedresser” John 15:1 [AMP]
I try to be like Jesus, we all should be like Jesus. I have been asked a lot of the time, how come you are not stressed? How do you even find the time to read a book? I say to people that I read four books at the same time why because if I read one book I get bored. My brain needs to be working in different directions. Not one but Read the rest of this entry
Living Stress Free?
“Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, “I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won’t have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life” Jn.8:12
Have you remembered to thank God for this day and for His kindness? Now and again we can say that this period or that period in our lives has been the most stressful of our year so far. Stress that comes from meeting up with obligations, or attending parties just to show we care or are a part of “who is who” in the society. Read the rest of this entry
Believers’ Authority
“For he raised us from the dead along with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ Jesus” Eph.2:6
You need to build your own altar with God, yourself. Why? Because a lot of the people you are relying on to build it for you, have malicious intentions. My wife and I were visiting a family outside Nigeria, who live in an all white community. There can’t be any demons there right? We parked a distance from the house so Read the rest of this entry
Religion vs. Relationship
“These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me” Matt.15:8.
No matter how legitimate the altar is it cannot take the place of God. Another legitimate altar we tend run to and grab on to but fails us is ‘men of God’. Thank God for ‘men of God’, I do not have anything against them, but a man of God cannot substitute God. It is totally impossible no matter how anointed he is – he Read the rest of this entry
Hot Or Cold?
“I know all the things you do, that you are neither hot nor cold. I wish that you were one or the other! But since you are like lukewarm water, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth!” Rev.3:15-16 [emphasis added]
The problem with a lot of believers is indifference. God’s Word is clear on the direction, God’s mind on every subject is clear but some believers are just indifferent. Jesus says, “You say, ‘I am rich. I have everything I want. I don’t need a thing!’ And you don’t realize that you are wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked. So I advise you to buy gold from me—gold that has been purified by fire. Then you will be rich. Also buy white garments from me so you will not be shamed by your nakedness, and ointment for your eyes so you will be able to see. I correct and discipline everyone I love. So be diligent and turn from your indifference” Rev.3:17-19 [emphasis added]. Read the rest of this entry
Mercy And Love
“And I will be merciful to them in their wrongdoings, and I will remember their sins no more.” Heb.8:12 [TLB]
“But God is so rich in mercy, and he loved us so much” Eph.2:4 [emphasis added]. It is just so amazing that God is not only rich in mercy; He is also very rich in love. God is rich in mercy and He is full of love. I was walking down the street and something caught my eye, a father and his son were having a coaching lesson. The grass was green and the pitch was set, the father placed the ball in the penalty 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
Believing Is Seeing
“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— such as thrones, kingdoms, rulers, and authorities in the unseen world. Everything was created through him and for him” Col.1:16 [emphasis added].
There are some things that are not seen. All you see is not all there is. There is more to life than meets the eye. Do not waste your life thinking that all you see is all there is. Even the biggest telescopes cannot see what is happening out there. Do not limit yourself by saying ‘if I don’t see it I can’t believe it, seeing is believing’. With God, believing is seeing. In fact, some things are not Read the rest of this entry
