“Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the Sabbath” Mark 2:28
You cannot ignore certain principles that existed before the Law. The Principle of Tithing is one of such; it existed before the Law. It existed in Eden. The Principle of First-fruit is another one; Cain and Abel [Read Genesis 4]. The Principle of His Presence – some people think they do not need to pray because they are Christians. The Principle of His Presence is in the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. God will Read the rest of this entry
The Sabbath Principle
“And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath day?” Luke 13:16 [KJV].
Jesus was saying to them, you are telling me that because it is a Sabbath, this woman should not be loosed? Shouldn’t she being a daughter of Abraham be loosed? When you put systems before sympathy, you will miss God. When you put “this is how we do it” before the people God came to do it for, you will miss it. And this was the problem with the Jews. Who instituted the Sabbath? God. When you now put the Sabbath before the people, there obviously will be a problem. And Read the rest of this entry
Child Of God!
“And He laid His hands on her, and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God” Lu.13:13 [emphasis added]
Today, for the purpose of emphasis, we will start by repeating our final thought from yesterday. “We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and…?’ Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God” Maryanne Williamson. Never apologize for standing tall. Some people are consistently wrestling with the question, who am I to be talented, to be anointed, to be beautiful, to be successful, to be wealthy…? Actually, who are you not to be, that is the Read the rest of this entry
Yoked I
“And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity. And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God” Luke 13:12-13 [KJV]
It is not about the gift; it is about the giver. It is about Jesus. The problem with many people is they want Jesus to solve their problems but they want Him to stay out of their affairs. It is like saying, Jesus come and solve this problem but mind your business. But that is not what God wants. He wants to interfere. He wants to make your life better. He wants to take over your life. It is a deception that turning over your life to God is a loss. The truth is, it is a gain because there is no one Read the rest of this entry
Fess-up!
“Suppose I wanted to hide from you and said, “Surely the darkness will hide me. The day will change into night and cover me.” Even the darkness is not dark to you. The night is as bright as the day. Darkness and light are the same” Ps. 139:11-12
“…And they have not only stolen them but have lied about it and hidden the things among their own belongings” Josh.7:11 [emphasis added]. You could almost feel God’s pain reading this portion of Scripture. “They have not only stolen, but they have hidden it and lied about it.” One of your greatest assets in your walk with God is your sincerity. If you have done something, no matter what it is, be sincere with your heavenly Father. David is an amazing Read the rest of this entry
Set Apart
“…They have stolen some of the things that I commanded must be set apart for me…” Josh.7:11 [emphasis added]
With the personal covenant I have with God, there are certain things in my life which He requires that I set aside for Him. Such things God has not asked you to set aside for Him. Do you understand? There are certain things that God requires of me and only me to set aside. He is not asking you to set aside those same things. So I must not erode those things. You need to find out what it is for you. Every life has a Covenant. There is a general Covenant but everyone should Read the rest of this entry
U-Turn!
“Repent of your sins and turn to God, for the Kingdom of Heaven has come” Matt.3:2
Do you want to see the miraculous happen in your life? Do you really want to walk in the power of the Holy Spirit and in the supernatural? If you sincerely desire it from your heart, then I pray that it will be so in Jesus Name. The key is, stepping out in faith and representing the Kingdom. There are people in your life right now that need the power of God to touch them. Guess what? God is waiting for you. “Go to the lost, confused people right here in the neighborhood. Tell them that the kingdom is here. Bring health to the sick. Raise the dead. Touch the untouchables. Kick out the demons…” Matt.10:7&8 [MSG]. Who should give health to the sick and raise the dead? You! Why? A Read the rest of this entry
The Advantage
“He is the Holy Spirit, who leads into all truth. The world cannot receive him, because it isn’t looking for him and doesn’t recognize him. But you know him, because he lives with you now and later will be in you” John 14:17
If you engage the Person of Jesus and deploy the principles of Jesus you get the miracles of Jesus! Engaging only His Person will give you comfort and eternal security. Deploying only His principles will give you success. But the intersection of the Person of Jesus and the principle of Jesus is the miracle of Jesus. So if you Read the rest of this entry
Provocative Blessings I
“Then they took the man who had been blind to the Pharisees, because it was on the Sabbath that Jesus had made the mud and healed him” John 9:13-14
When a man who was blind from birth gets healed, what should happen in the community? They should be rejoicing and celebrating, right? However, I read the story in John 9:1-41, more than once, and nobody rejoiced with this man. The disciples did not rejoice with him, his neighbors did not rejoice with him, the Read the rest of this entry
Trust God!
“We are assured and know that [God being a partner in their labor] all things work together and are [fitting into a plan] for good to and for those who love God and are called according to [His] design and purpose” Rom.8:28 [AMP]
Will you trust that God will show His glory even when you do not understand the suffering? Everyone can pay his or her school fees. How come you are the only one who cannot pay school fees yet? Would you trust God to show His glory or would you be overly consumed with ‘why’ you are suffering. It is up to us really but I think God Read the rest of this entry
