At The Roots
1 Cor.2:10 [MSG] “The Spirit, not content to flit around on the surface, dives into the depths of God, and brings out what God planned all along.”
“On the days of prayer meetings, mother was very different. Everything was attended to with urgency. I had become accustomed to it and I understood why. Jesus must be priority.
Cheap Candy
Prov. 18:7 (MSG) “Fools are undone by their big mouths; their souls are crushed by their words. 8 Listening to gossip is like eating cheap candy; do you really want junk like that in your belly?”
You have to make sure that gossip has no place in your life. I strongly believe that not everyone that goes around gossiping is evil; some are, but most of them are just idle and ignorant.
The Promise
Differentiation!
Gen. 5:1 “This is the written account of the descendants of Adam. When God created human beings, he made them to be like himself.”
Sometime ago, a child fell into a gorilla’s cage at a zoo. The gorilla’s animal instinct immediately kicked in; unable to discern the value of human life, the gorilla would have killed that child.
Appraise Yourself
Gal.6:4 (Philips) “Let everyone learn to assess properly the value of his own work. Then he can be rightly proud when he has done something worth doing, without depending on the approval of others” [with emphasis]
Col.3:24 (GN)“… Remember that the Lord will reward you… For Christ is the real Master you serve” [with emphasis]. The only person that needs to appreciate your work is God. And He will appreciate it if it is worthy of appreciation. Read the rest of this entry
From Above
Col.3:24 (GN)”… Remember that the Lord will reward you… For Christ is the real Master you serve.” [with emphasis]

Love Work
Eccl. 5:18 “Even so, I have noticed one thing, at least, that is good. It is good for people to eat, drink, and enjoy their work under the sun … 19 (LB) “To enjoy your work, and to accept your lot in life — that is indeed a gift from God.” [with emphasis]
Statistically, eighty two percent of Americans say they hate their jobs. The statistics for Nigerians is not available – however, love your job or hate your job, you are going to benefit a lot from our learning in this season because seasons change and understanding is key.

Realignment
Prov.14:23 (GN) “Work and you will earn a living, if you sit around talking you will be poor.”
Work is God’s idea and He wants you to work regardless of how much wealth you have already acquired. There are people that have so much wealth that even if they do not work for the rest of their lives, they will not lack. Read the rest of this entry
Amazing Grace!
Col.2:14 “He cancelled the record of the charges against us and took it away by nailing it to the cross. 15 In this way, he disarmed the spiritual rulers and authorities. He shamed them publicly by his victory over them on the cross” [with emphasis].
You are FREE from satan and his demonic hosts. You are EMPOWERED to destroy the works of satan and his demonic hosts. And you are FREE to walk with God. Jesus shamed the devil publicly so that you can be free to serve God. Read the rest of this entry
Triumphant
Col.2:14 He canceled the record of the charges against us and took it away by nailing it to the cross. 15 In this way, he disarmed the spiritual rulers and authorities. He shamed them publicly by his victory over them on the cross” [with emphasis].
The devil and all his demonic hosts were disarmed, defeated and publicly shamed! It was not a private affair; it was a public disgrace. What does that mean for you and I? Read the rest of this entry
