Walking On Water
“But Jesus spoke to them at once. “Don’t be afraid,” he said. “Take courage. I am here!” Then Peter called to him, “Lord, if it’s really you, tell me to come to you, walking on the water” Matt.14:27-28
What does it mean to walk on water? God causing you to walk on water means God making a way where there seems to be no way. Remember the children of Israel? When you are traveling and you meet water do you continue? You should not except you can swim. God causing you to walk on water means that God will make a way where there seems to be no way in your life in Jesus Name. Read the rest of this entry
God Can!
“Meanwhile, the disciples were in trouble far away from land, for a strong wind had risen, and they were fighting heavy waves. About three o’clock in the morning Jesus came toward them, walking on the water” Matt.14:24-25
God has done many miracles with water. God has turned water into blood. Jesus turned water into wine. Moses told water to part and the children of Israel walked on dry land. Joshua repeated the same thing with Jordan. Elisha repeated the same thing with Jordan. It is so interesting but we had never seen God or God empowering any man to walk on water. God even fights with water. In Read the rest of this entry
Christ Is All
“ Since you have been raised to new life with Christ, set your sights on the realities of heaven, where Christ sits in the place of honor at God’s right hand” Col.3:1
One major challenge that the female specie face is they are always looking for completion. Women are always looking for a man to complete them. Leah also made that mistake, she gave birth to her first child and named him Ruben meaning now I will be complete. Now I will be loved but that did not happen. She gave birth to the second child Simeon, she gave Read the rest of this entry
Public Knowledge
“So you also are complete through your union with Christ, who is the head over every ruler and authority” Col.2:10 [emphasis added]
It is amazing that it is the same issues that the church in Colossae had. “ These rules may seem wise because they require strong devotion, pious self-denial, and severe bodily discipline. But they provide no help in conquering a person’s evil desires. No help! It is only in Christ that we have help. It is only in Christ that our obedience is complete. And obedience Read the rest of this entry
Kingdom Opportunities
“So don’t let anyone condemn you for what you eat or drink, or for not celebrating certain holy days or new moon ceremonies or Sabbaths. For these rules are only shadows of the reality yet to come. And Christ himself is that reality” Col.2:16-17
Every Christian will have an opportunity to downgrade Christ. To you it could be just sleep with that man and get a car then you can wash yourself in the Blood of Jesus. It can come in many different forms but it is the same thing that confronted the church in Colossae. It was what I was faced with in the personal experience I shared with you yesterday. The nice Read the rest of this entry
Be On Your Guard
“ You have died with Christ, and he has set you free from the spiritual powers of this world. So why do you keep on following the rules of the world, such as, “Don’t handle! Don’t taste! Don’t touch!”?” Col.2:20-21
“Don’t let anyone condemn you by insisting on pious self-denial or the worship of angels, saying they have had visions about these things” Col.2:18. Interestingly, we can relate to the issues that faced the church in Colossae in the church today. These are the same issues we have to deal with. Five of such issues were enumerated in Colossians 2.
All!
“Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness” Col.2:7
Build your life on Christ which means you ensure that every block you are putting in place is on Christ. “In him lie hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge” Col.2:3. I have news for you from this passage of Scripture, all you will ever need to know is in Christ – all! Everything was made by Him. We thank God for scientist, scientist are amazing, I am a Read the rest of this entry
Just Follow Jesus
“I want them to be encouraged and knit together by strong ties of love. I want them to have complete confidence that they understand God’s mysterious plan, which is Christ Himself” Col.2:2.
Our lives flow from Christ. Every other thing will lead to emptiness. Amazingly in the Book of Colossians, Paul talks about the mysteries of God and then says he does not want the church in Colossae to be oblivious of it. He wants the church to be aware of the mysteries of God. Paul says he wants the church, which applies to you and I, to have complete confidence that Read the rest of this entry
Through Christ
“He existed before anything else, and he holds all creation together. For God in all his fullness was pleased to live in Christ… And this is the secret: Christ lives in you. This gives you assurance of sharing his glory” Col.1:17, 19, & 27 [emphasis added]
“You have been taught the holy Scriptures from childhood, and they have given you the wisdom to receive the salvation that comes by trusting in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work” 2Tim.3:15-17. Read the rest of this entry
The Secret
“He existed before anything else, and he holds all creation together” Col.1:17
“If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new” 2Cor5:17. Believe it! Sadly, some people hear this Word being preached but they chose to receive its power to change them only a little at a time. You hear such people say, give me sometime God is not done working on me, the grace is sufficient. But I say to you Read the rest of this entry
