The Only Way!
‘Jesus told him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me’ John 14:6.
A lot of people even those who refuse to admit it are wondering if Jesus is the only way to God? Well I will let Jesus answer this question Himself. ‘Jesus said unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me’ John 14:6 [KJV]. This is a direct quote from Jesus Himself. If you have an issue with this answer then you have an issue with Jesus. “I am an historian, I am not a believer, but I must confess as a historian that this penniless preacher from Nazareth is irrevocably the very center Read the rest of this entry
Undeniable Change
‘I once thought these things were valuable, but now I consider them worthless because of what Christ has done’ Phil.3:7.
‘I don’t know whether he is a sinner,” the man replied. “But I know this: I was blind, and now I can see!’ John 9:25. If you check with anyone who is consistently walking with God, one thing we all have in common is that there has been great change since we met the person of Jesus. Claiming you are saved and refusing to change is making yourself a ridicule to the Kingdom of God. You are making a mess of everything God stands for. If you want to be cold be cold. If you want to be hot be hot. If you are lukewarm you are standing the Read the rest of this entry
Give Yourself
‘But more than anything else, put God’s work first and do what he wants. Then the other things will be yours as well’ Matt.6:33 [CEV]
Another thing you can give this season is, give your life to Jesus. This is the best gift you can give. Many of us are so consumed with the mistakes we have made in the past, in our marriages, and in our lives that it is hindering us from moving forward. Yet if you understand and realize that Jesus has taken care of your past you will stop worrying. Jesus is offering you a fresh start; free from all the wrong you have ever done, including what you did last week, and even yesterday. For some of us the anxiety we have is for the future; what will Read the rest of this entry
A New Outlook
‘This is a trustworthy saying, and everyone should accept it: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners – and I am the worst of them all’ 1 Tim.1:15
A lot of times, we get lost looking for God in the dramatic whereas God has come to us as a baby in a manger. God gave to us His Son Jesus. Jesus is the reason for the season. However you and I are the reason for His coming in this season in the first place. Without you and I, Jesus would not have needed to come and there will be no reason for Christmas. The significance of Christmas of course is around Jesus but it transcends just Jesus. If the meaning does not come to fruition in our lives then Christmas is wasted. So even though Read the rest of this entry
Phileo love
‘A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another’ John 13:34-35
The word love has been broadly used and because of this many people don’t have a clear understanding of what love is truly about. There are many aberrations of love which people have come up with to suit their circumstances and for their convenience. The Bible recognizes three kinds of love – Agape, Eros, and Phileo. Phileo is the brotherly love we share and have for one another. This kind of love can fade with the challenges of life. Esau did not start out hating Jacob. He must have loved him as a brother would. But when Jacob stole his Read the rest of this entry
King of kings
‘You are blessed when you can show people how to cooperate instead of compete or fight. That’s when you discover who you really are, and your place in God’s family’ Matt.5:9 [MSG]
Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called children of God. There are a lot of wars and killings going on in our world today because of ‘religion’. People are snuffing other peoples’ lives in defense of their god. People are doing all sorts of strange things in the Name of God. Listen to me, if your god cannot fight for himself something is wrong with that god. The church learnt a long time ago that God is greater than any insult from any movie. Do you know how many people have abused Jesus? Does that stop Him from being Read the rest of this entry
Prioritize Hunger!
‘Is any one thirsty? Come and drink-even if you have no money! Come, take your choice of wine or milk-it’s all free!’ Isa.55:1.
Come and drink-even if you have no money! Come, take your choice of wine or milk-it’s all free! Who is to come? You are! Yet the challenge with a lot of us, the reason why we don’t get this hunger fed and our thirst filled is because we do not understand the priority of hunger. My grand mother would say, ‘if hunger enters a man, nothing else can enter the man’. So hunger must be attended to. Jesus says, ‘seek first the kingdom of God and his Read the rest of this entry
Currency For Satisfaction
‘This is the generation [description] of those who seek Him [who inquire of and from Him and of necessity require Him], who seek Your Face, [O God of] Jacob’ Ps.24:6 [AMP].
The third way we can become hungry and thirsty for God is by fasting. ‘And so I tell you, keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened’ Luke 11:9-10. When you stay in the place of seeking God, suddenly you will realize that all that truly Read the rest of this entry
Generating Hunger
‘Don’t shuffle along, eyes to the ground, absorbed with the things right in front of you. Look up, and be alert to what is going on around Christ-that’s where the action is. See things from his perspective’ Col.3:2 [MSG]
No matter how long you have been a Christian for, it is important to know how to generate a hunger for God; How to continually stir yourself up in seeking God. The first way is to set your love on Him. Just choose to set your love on Him [Col.3:2]. The Bible says set, as though it is our choice to do that because in truth you long for who you are in love with. Have you noticed? So how do I become thirsty for God? Set your affection on Him. Another way of Read the rest of this entry
Raising The Bar
‘God, create a pure heart in me, and make my spirit strong again’ Ps.51:10 [ERV]
God can skip a whole generation and look for you because your heart is right. The greatest prophet in the land made the mistake of judging by the exterior about six times and God kept saying no. The Bible says until they found David everybody was standing and when David came the Holy Ghost said to him that is the man. I am praying in the Name of Jesus that every thing will stand at attention until you show up because your heart will be right Read the rest of this entry
