Third Words
When Jesus saw His mother standing there beside the disciple He loved, He said to her, “Dear woman, here is your son. And He said to this disciple, “Here is your mother.” John 19:26-27a
The third words of Jesus are the words of Relationship. Jesus was on the cross, in pain and He still had compassion and a sense of responsibility towards His mother. Many times people use the pressures of life, work, or career as excuses to be nasty to their spouse, friends and even family. Some people go as far as Read the rest of this entry
Personalize Him
‘The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my savior; my God is my rock, in whom I find protection. He is my shield, the power that saves me, and my place of safety’ Ps.18:2
God does not just want to be the Alpha and Omega to you, He desires to be your Alpha and Omega. It is impossible to have God to yourself alone but you can choose to personalize your every interaction with Him. Personalize His Word, personalize His praise and worship. Paul admonishes us to look for every opportunity to sing to God from our heart. Do not just call Him God, call Read the rest of this entry
Unbroken Link
“Teacher, which is the most important commandment in the law of Moses?” Matt.27:36
What must I do to put my relationship with God intact? ‘Jesus replied, you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ The entire law and all the
Handling
‘Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in Me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from Me you can do nothing’ John15:5
How will you treat a relationship that is your life? Let’s assume that an individual is living in abject poverty. Then one day, the president of the nation says to him ‘show up 4am Monday to Friday this week because I will show up on one of those days and give you a contract that will turn your life
Purpose in Pain
‘Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse because it is built on bedrock’. Matt.7:25
The pain you experience, God has allowed it for a purpose. However, many of us get too engrossed in the pain and allow it to make us bitter whereas God is saying ‘the pain is supposed to draw you closer to Me’. God is set to use the pain for your good and reveal a dimension of Him that you have been hearing
My Lord!
The Lord is my shepherd; I have all that I need. Ps.23:1 [NLT]
The beauty of having a personal walk or being in a relationship with God is that you get personal revelations of who God really is. You get to know who God really is for yourself. It is one thing to know about someone, it is another thing to know the person. Just like it is one thing to know about the state governor and it’s another thing to know him personally. Knowing about him does not Read the rest of this entry
Access
‘…For the Kingdom of God belongs to those who are like these children. I tell you the truth, anyone who doesn’t receive the Kingdom of God like a child will never enter it’. Luke18:16b-17
Some people want to enter into the Kingdom and the abundance of God but are ‘too big’ to meet the requirements. Jesus says whoever wants to enter the Kingdom of God must come as a little child. In other words, entering the Kingdom means shredding every trace of pride, self-righteousness, self-sufficiency etc. For the Kingdom of God to manifest in your finances, Read the rest of this entry
Preaching and Pressing!
The law and the prophets were until John: since that time the Kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it. Luke.16:16 [KJV]
There is a preaching of the Kingdom and there is a pressing into the Kingdom; before there can be a reality of the Kingdom. Check every sphere of your life [education, business, health, or marriage] to be sure the Kingdom of God is being revealed. For you to see the manifestation of the Kingdom of God there has to be a preaching. You need to hear a Word, for prosperity and health, and then there has to be a pressing. A preaching of and a pressing into the Kingdom. Many times we hear the Kingdom preached to us over and over again but we are waiting for God to manifest it. At other times we conclude that we have faults and that is why we are not getting the benefits of the Kingdom. The missing link is that you are not pressing into it; today you will press into your inheritance. Preach it, Press in and Take it by Force. ‘And from the time of John the Baptist until now, the Kingdom of God suffereth violence, and the violence take it by force’ [Matt.11:12]. You have to violently reclaim your health, finances, marriage, destiny and your inheritance. A lady had labored with her husband for years but as soon as he entered into wealth, his mother introduced a strange woman. The lady’s first response was in the flesh which resulted in her accepting the intrusion. Before long, she had been stripped of all her privileges as his wife. One day, the word came back to her ‘the violent take it by force’ and she began to speak violently to the walls, the water, and everything in her house to eject the strange woman. The strange woman packed her bags and ran. You have heard the Word, don’t try to reason it out – Take It By Force. You know it is God, plus you see and know what God wants to release to you. God has put it in your heart, it has come as a prophesy, and you have heard it preached. It is time to press into it and take it by force.
Prayer: Lord, I have heard Your Word, I receive and press into Your Word concerning my health, marriage, finances, children and my Job. I take my inheritance by Force in Jesus Name.
God’s Kingdom
Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in Heaven, so in earth’Luke11:2b [NLT]
The Good News is about the Kingdom [Matt.4:23]. Jesus came to preach the Good News and establish God’s Kingdom in the hearts of men here on earth. When Jesus sent out the disciples, He told them to go and preach the Kingdom of God to everyone. The word Kingdom is derived from two words, King and Domain. The word Kingdom implies that there is a King and that King has an Read the rest of this entry
Repentance
Have mercy on me, O God, because of your unfailing love. Because of your great compassion, blot out the stain of my sins. Psalm 51:1
I encourage you to read the entire Psalm 51; it is a comprehensive lesson on repentance God’s way. When it comes to sin and repentance, God expects us to respond in three ways. Firstly, we must see that there is a problem. ‘Have mercy on me, O God, because of your unfailing love…’ Ps.51:1a. David in his heart accepted that there was a problem and so he sought God for mercy and Read the rest of this entry
