God Wants Us In Healthy Relationships!! Part 2

In the words of the old song “’Can’t Nobody Do Me Like Jesus’ – can’t nobody do me like Jesus, can’t nobody do me like the Lord, can’t nobody do me like Jesus, He’s my friend…picked me up and turned me around….” Can’t NOBODY do me like Jesus, can’t nobody love me like Jesus; there is NOBODY I can call in the middle of the night to get comforted; NOBODY is there when I need them the most but Jesus!! I can call on Him at any time day or night and in between and He will be there for me…

Did You Know

Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved'' ( Act 16:31 ). It is simple acceptance of Christ's gift and belief that He did all the work necessary for your salvation. If you never recognized this and accepted His gift, why don't you pray this prayer? Lord Jesus, I confess my own failures and faults. I believe You were given to die for my sins on the cross. I believe You rose from the dead and are alive right now and hearing my prayer. Please come into my life and save me. Give…

Discover Your Spiritual Gifts

It is Important to live and give by faith. Faith brings the wonder back to the Christian life. Learn to hear God, and trust Him for resources. Learn to be a channel of blessing to others. Finally, find an outlet of ministry through which you can serve others. Discover your spiritual gifts, and go for it in the name of Jesus. Reach out to the lost, helpless, hurting, and homeless. Touch someone else with the fire of God in your life, and rather than quench the flame of the Spirit, you will…

A New Birth In Christ

We weren't born in Christ. We were born dead in our trespasses and sins ( Eph. 2:1 ). What is God's plan for transforming us from being in Adam to being in Christ ? Jesus said, ''Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God'' ( John 3:3 ). Physical birth gains only physical life for us. Spiritual life, the eternal life Christ promises to those who come to Him, is gained only through spiritual birth. What does it mean to be spiritually alive in Christ…

Prayer

Prayer releases the inheritance. You must stay in touch to receive what God has. Psalm 2:8 says, ''Ask of Me, and I will give You the nations for Your inheritance, and the ends of the earth for Your possession.'' God says,'' Ask Me'' and the world is yours! Prayer moves the resources of the earth and heaven into place for believers

Where Is Your Heart ?

Many evangelical churches have raised a generation whose notebooks are full but whose hearts are cold. They may have all the answers, but they possess no passion for ministry. They have sound theology but no doxology. They can quote entire sermon outlines but cannot get a word from God. The Jesus they know is trapped in their Bible, notes, theology, and tradition. The living Christ is often missing in the zeal for religion. The  living Jesus wants to take His Word and use it to help others.…

Baptized With The Holy Spirit

Jesus Said ''For john truly baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now.'' Therefore, when they had come together, they asked Him, saying, ''Lord, will you at this time restore the kingdom to Israel ?'' And He said to them, 'It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority. But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea…

Confessing And Repenting

Confessing And Repenting

Is there any connection between confessing sin and repenting of it?

In 1 John 1:9 (ESV) Christians are told, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins ..." So, when we confess our sins we are forgiven but what does it mean to confess? Many people…

O JESUS, I HAVE PROMISED

Dearly Beloved,

O JESUS, I HAVE PROMISED

“You are my portion, O Lord; I have promised to obey your words” (Psalm 119:57 NIV).

“As they were walking along the road, a man said to him, ‘I will follow you wherever you go’” (Luke 9:57 NIV).

“Mo ti seleri, Jesu” the Yoruba version of the hymn, “O Jesus, I Have Promised” was one of the hymns I loved when I was growing up as a teenager. I could sing off-hand almost all the lyrics of the hymn in Yoruba. It is a hymn of…

''The Steps Of A Good Man

The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and He delights in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; from the Lord unholds him with Him. with His hand'' ( Ps. 37:23-24 ). Here again we see the benefit of God's direction. Along the way we may fall, but God is holding our hand. He allows us to learn from those times we leave His path. He still holds our hand and lifts us up ! Hallelujah! If you let go, He holds on; no man can pluck you out of His hand .

It’s Time To Pray!

Christians…it’s time to pray.  The hot link below is to one of the many articles concerning the explosions at the Boston Marathon.

Please take a few moments to pray for the victims, their families, the first responders, visitors and everyone else.  Pray that justice prevails.  We’re praying for humans…not a particular slice.  I mean we’re not…

YOU CAN LENGTHEN YOUR DAYS.

Gain is good but unjust gain is evil. Proverb. 1;19 says what the greedy fellow calls gain is exactly what will take hie life. Never take what belongs to another !

Greed has wrecked many ministries, leaders and families. That benefit you think you are deriving from your evil act of denying others what is rightfully theirs will snuff life out of you . Have you unjustly cut down the benefit of your subordinates because you believe they are at the receiving end? Return it…

Traditionalism

The work of the Holy Spirit must always be grounded in biblical revelation. This does not mean that the church has said, ''Tradition is the living faith of those now living.'' Tradition says' 'Worship on the Lord's day!'' Traditionalism says, ''It must be at 11:00 am in a building with a steeple and pews.'' We must differentiate between human customs and real biblical truth. Also we must be careful not to press human, denominational, or other parameters onto Scripture. The most difficult…

NO WORD OF GOD IS VOID OF POWER

NO WORD OF GOD IS VOID OF POWER

 

“So shall My Word be that goes forth out of My mouth it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.”  Isaiah 55: 11“No weapon that is formed against thee can prosper and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shall condemn.  This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of Me,  saith  the Lord.”  …
