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
His Answer
“Rabbi,” his disciples asked him, “why was this man born blind? Was it because of his own sins or his parents’ sins?” John 9:2
Over the next few days we will be learning a couple of life defining truths from the story in John 9:1-41 [please read]. Jesus’ disciples concluded that the man’s blindness [suffering] must be as a result of sin. Sadly, many of us still think like this even now. We conclude that people are suffering as a result of sin either directly or indirectly.

Person And Principles
“Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” Matt.11:29
The world and the church consistently struggle with understanding the Person of Jesus and the principles of Jesus. The truth you and I must accept is, you do not need the Person of Jesus to work the principles of Jesus. There are some principles that are universal and such principles will work whether you are a believer or not. The Read the rest of this entry
Relational Advantage
“When Hezekiah heard this, he turned his face to the wall and prayed to the Lord” 2 kings 20:2
Be encouraged because Jesus does not need permission from anyone before He sends you help from above. Hezekiah knew that God did not need Isaiah’s permission to help him. So when Isaiah had delivered his message from God, Hezekiah faced God himself. And it was because he knew that God does not need the permission of the Read the rest of this entry
Tear It Down!
“He removed the pagan shrines, smashed the sacred pillars, and cut down the Asherah poles. He broke up the bronze serpent that Moses had made, because the people of Israel had been offering sacrifices to it. The bronze serpent was called Nehushtan” 2 Kings 18:4
Please read Numbers 21:4-9, this was a time when the children of Israel were going through a challenging time and they sinned against God. As a result God sent serpents to bite them causing a lot of deaths in the camp. They realized their mistake and cried out for mercy. And God told Moses to raise up a bronze serpent called Read the rest of this entry
Get Up!
“ Once after a sacrificial meal at Shiloh, Hannah got up and went to pray. Eli the priest was sitting at his customary place beside the entrance of the Tabernacle” 1 Sam.1:9
Hannah did not allow the lame consolation of Elkanah dampen her pursuit. Hannah did not allow the “deceitful” portion of choice to deceive her into abandoning her pursuit and make her to begin to eat. Some people, even though they are believing God for something, will opt out of corporate spiritual movements because they do not want to stress themselves. Come on! Can you not hold God’s hands Read the rest of this entry
Saved To Serve
“Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves” Phil.2:3 [ASV, emphasis added].
We are saved to serve. Perry Nobel says, “Saved people serve people”. I attribute this statement to him because I have heard him say it the most. If you are saved, you are saved to serve. “Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves” Phil.2:3 [ASV]. I trust that you are fired up to serve and the only question on your mind now is how Read the rest of this entry
