Spiritual Understanding

God reserves the right to choose those to whom He will reveal spiritual understanding . Sometimes one whom God so chooses may initially hold to views that oppose the truth , as did the apostle Paul . God miraculously called this man who had vigorously persecuted the early Christians , then opened his mind and used him as a powerful tool to reveal a wealth of spiritual truth and write much of what we know as the New Testament . God Bless you all and may the Lord our God keep his hands over…

Studying The Bible With A Proper Attitude

Our first step is prayer, to humbly ask God for His help. This is the first vital key understanding His Word. God describes the kind of attitude and approach He respects: '' But on this one will I look : on him who is poor and of a contrite ( Repentant ) spirit, and who trembles at My word '' ( Isaiah 66:2 ) . Understanding God's Word is not a matter of superior intellect . God looks on the heart , our attitude and approach , to determine whether to give us understanding . The apostle Peter…

FROM BARRENNESS TO FRUITFULNESS

Dearly Beloved,

FROM BARRENNESS TO FRUITFULNESS

“I waited patiently for the Lord; And He inclined to me, And heard my cry. He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, Out of the miry clay, And set my feet upon a rock, And established my steps. He has put a new song in my mouth — Praise to our God; Many will see it and fear, And will trust in the Lord” (Psalm 40:1-3 NKJV).

Scientifically, the average age of a woman having her last period (or menstrual circle) is 50. This…

FEAR THE NO 1 WEAPON OF THE ENEMY

Fear is the no 1 weapon the enemy uses against the unsuspecting believer.That is why

the bible says fear has torment. The fear of the unknow has always

been the death of many believers because fear is the quickest and

easiest way that leads to the darkside.The fear of the unknown leads

to frustration. Remember, the bible says the children of God are as

bold as a lion. Fear is a great destroyer of faith, from destruction

of faith you will become prayerless…

LORD, DISMISS US WITH THY BLESSING

Dearly Beloved,

LORD, DISMISS US WITH THY BLESSING

“The Lord bless you and keep you; The Lord make His face shine upon you, And be gracious to you; The Lord lift up His countenance upon you, And give you peace” (Numbers 6:24-26 NKJV).

One of the hymns I cherish is “LORD, DISMISS US WITH THY BLESSING.” I can sing its Yoruba version extemporaneously. It is one of the hymns we normally use as closing hymns. John Fawcett (1740-1817) wrote the benediction that became the…

THE OUTWARD APPEARANCE

Dearly Beloved,

THE OUTWARD APPEARANCE

"Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The LORD does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart" (1 Samuel 16:7 NIV).

"Stop judging by mere appearances, and make a right judgment" (John 7:24 NIV).

Samuel was a great man of God. Some Bible scholars have said that only Moses was greater than him in the leadership history of the…

Why Sould I Give To God !

The Apostle Paul teaches how important 'thanksgiving' is to God as he writes to the church of Corinth. In Paul's letter to the Corinthians he states, '' Being enriched in every thing to all bountifulness , which causeth through us thanksgiving to God. For the administration of this service not only supplieth the wants of the wants of the saints , but is also by many thanksgiving unto God; While by the of this ministration they glorify God for your professed subjection into the gospel of…

A meditation and a prayer for all those in Pakistan and Kenya who suffered this week.

24 September, 2013 

"It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour, for the sun stopped shining. And the curtain of the temple was torn in two. Jesus called out with a loud voice, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit." When he had said this, he breathed his last". Luke 23:44-46

These famous words are usually only associated with Jesus when He was on the cross. In fact they were first spoken by King David. It was the…

To Minister in the Fullness Of The Holy Spirit

A church that wants to minister in the fullness of the Holy Spirit will follow the biblical mandate to , anoint them with oil, lay hands upon them, and trust God in  faith for healing . James admonished us, '' Confess your trespasses to one another, and one another, that you may be healed . The effective, fervent of a righteous man avails much '' ( James 5:16 ) . This verse clearly advises us to first take care of our sin problems and then believe God for healing . God bless you all and have…

We love because He first Loved us

The greatest challenge of a preacher is “can you make the congregation fall in love with Jesus?” Because, when they fall in love with Jesus, everything comes easy. They will love their neighbors + God + Obedience to the Law comes easy. Just like this quote: “the only reason I don’t want to commit adultery is because I love my wife and I love my Lord”.

We are merely human being and we need reasons to love, in everything and in anything. We are not capable of loving anyone or loving…
