Ten Over Ten
“The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly” John 10:10
A marriage, as good as marriage is, cannot give you life. Popularity cannot give you life. A boat cannot give you life. A car, even the most expensive of cars, cannot give you life. Somebody walking down the road with his ‘leg-gedis-benz’ sees another person drive off in his Mercedes Benz and says, that is ‘the life’. The truth is, as nice as the Mercedes Benz might be, it cannot give Read the rest of this entry
Except By Me!
“That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” Phil.2:10-11.
Lordship simply means to have authority, control, and power over others, over situations, and over things. So when we say Jesus is Lord, we are saying Jesus has authority, control, and power. I understand that some people are at the borderline and struggling with their faith, so they wonder if Jesus is really Lord? We put up this post, “Jesus IS Lord” on one of our social media Read the rest of this entry
Sheep Or Goat?
“Dear children, don’t let anyone deceive you about this: When people do what is right, it shows that they are righteous, even as Christ is righteous. But when people keep on sinning, it shows that they belong to the devil, who has been sinning since the beginning…” 1Jn.3:7-8 [emphasis added].
God knew that there would be a lot of deception about this subject, which is why the Bible says, don’t let anyone deceive you about this… But when people keep on sinning, it shows that they belong to the devil. The key there is, keep on sinning. Do Christians sin? Of course they do; but they should not keep on sinning otherwise, it shows that they belong to the devil, who has been sinning since the beginning. But the Son of God came to destroy the works of the devil. Every work of the devil in Read the rest of this entry
Truth Revealed
“His father said to him, ‘Look, dear son, you have always stayed by me, and everything I have is yours. We had to celebrate this happy day. For your brother was dead and has come back to life! He was lost, but now he is found!” Luke 15:31-32.
You need to understand the truth shown to the older son, “His father said to him, ‘Look, dear son, you have always stayed by me, and everything I have is yours” Luke 15:31. What the father was saying in essence is that, everything I have even the fattened cow that was killed is yours. In other words, your brother pretty much Read the rest of this entry
Walk In Fullness
“The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth… For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ” John 1:14&17 [NIV]
The Word of God says that Jesus is full of grace and truth. The Word of God did not say that Jesus has 50% grace and 50% truth. Jesus is full of grace and truth, which means He has 100% grace and 100% truth. Unfortunately, we tilt in either direction as Christians. In fact, we have churches that build their thrust around a particular Read the rest of this entry
Don’t Be Deceived II
“So we have not stopped praying for you since we first heard about you. We ask God to give you complete knowledge of his will and to give you spiritual wisdom and understanding” Col.1:9
It is dangerous to depend on visions or revelations to confirm who you are in Christ Jesus. Someone can speak to you about a dream or a vision but it should align with what God is telling you, or what you know God will have you do in accordance with His Word. It shouldn’t mystify or intimidate you. It shouldn’t make you want to add anything to Jesus. Read the rest of this entry
Jesus Alone!
“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’ John 15:5
A lot of us are under extreme pressure from people who are debating our faith and our trust in God. And sometimes, it is because of the circumstances we are in. Perhaps you are a single lady/man trusting God for a life partner and people are suggesting to you what you should do and how you should go about getting a life partner. Some of us are being deceived into Read the rest of this entry
Who Is…
“Therefore, God elevated Him to the place of highest honor and gave Him the name above all other names” Phil.2:9
“That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in the heaven and on the earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” Phil.2:10-11. Back in the day, Sunday was evangelism time for my wife and I; this was even before we became Pastors. After church, we would visit our friends that don’t know Read the rest of this entry
Jesus Is _
‘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
Jesus is the center of the purpose and the existence of the church. The church teaches morals but the church is not all about morals. The church is all about Jesus. Beyond the church, the world does not even know that the world is all about Jesus. The entire history of mankind revolves around the person of Jesus. In fact, our dating system revolves around Jesus, everything that happened before He walked the earth is B.C and everything that happens after His death and Read the rest of this entry
The Gospel
‘The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised’ Luke 4:18 [KJV]
A colleague of mine said that in Nigerian churches there is too much warfare. They are constantly praying against the devil. Everything is fall down and die. Everything cannot be falling down and dying. If every thing is to fall down and die, then all of us will not be here today. While there is nothing necessarily wrong with praying violently, but there is an abuse of it. My colleague was insisting that in the United Kingdom, they never had to pray like that. And I said the demons we are facing here are different from the ones in the Read the rest of this entry
