Heart Affairs IV
“But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him” John 4:23 [emphasis added]
Worship actually starts with what you cannot bring to God. Our hearts are ushered into true worship with the honest confession that we are empty. We cannot begin to enter and access true worship if we do not get to that honest confession that we are actually empty and there is nothing we can really bring to God. Worship does not start with what you can bring, it actually starts with what you cannot Read the rest of this entry
God Wants You
“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
God allows the pain you have experienced in the past, or the pain you are currently experiencing, and perhaps the pain you might experience in the future 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 Read the rest of this entry
Womb Of Adversity
‘God replied to Moses, I Am Who I Am. Say this to the people of Israel: I Am has sent me to you’. Ex.3:14
When you examine the revelations of God throughout Scripture, a lot of these revelations were birthed in the womb of adversity. Every Christian encounters adversity at one point or the other of his or her walk with God. Even the prophets of old experienced adversity and this birthed in them a new and 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
Surrender Control
“They are headed for destruction. Their god is their appetite, they brag about shameful things, and they think only about this life here on earth” Phil.3:19.
What appetite do you need to surrender to Jesus? You and I must deal with this question in order to make our lives count. I personally am very sensitive to anything that can compete with God or put me out of sync with Him. Permit me to start my next illustration with a disclaimer. There is nothing wrong with cable Read the rest of this entry
Give Control Back to God!
“They are headed for destruction. Their god is their appetite, they brag about shameful things, and they think only about this life here on earth” Phil.3:19.
The third source of distraction is Another god also known as Pleasure. Many of us will not go and bow down to an idol or worship a graven image in our homes. Yet many of us are worshiping the idle of pleasure, the idol of self, and the idol of our unbridled appetite. You need to understand that whether it is a physical image or Read the rest of this entry
All Or Nothing?
“And Abraham said, My son, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering: so they went both of them together” Gen.22:8 [KJV]
Being sold out is so crucial. God took my wife and I through an interesting path, a season that God was challenging us to be totally sold out. We used to pastor in a denominational church before God called us out. But while we were there, I was running a business locally and internationally and they were doing well. Then Read the rest of this entry
With Purpose
“For I know the plans I have for you, says the LORD, they are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope” Jer.29:11
It is my prayer that this singular life that we have, we will all make it count in Jesus Name. The opposite of a life that counts is a wasted life and I am praying that none of our lives will be wasted in Jesus Name. Everyone that God created He created with a purpose. God had something in mind when He made you and I and Read the rest of this entry
