A THANKFUL LIFE

DATE: 31st October, 2021 TOPIC : A THANKFUL LIFE BIBLE TEXT : And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. - Colossians 3:17 Every day is Thanksgiving for a Christian—at least, it should be. We certainly have more than enough to be thankful for. We don’t need to look far for God’s blessings in our lives. They’re all around us: a place to live, a loving family or someone to care for us, supportive friends, food to eat, clothes to wear, assorted talents and abilities, the security of knowing we’ll go to heaven when we die—just to name a few. We have the material for a 365-day Thanksgiving celebration, but do we have the desire? After all, life gets busy. More important things come up. Right? Actually, they don’t. If we’re serious about our relationship God, nothing is more important. We just need to rethink our schedules. How can we carve a little time out of every day to think about what G

CONQUEROR OF DEATH

DATE : OCTOBER 30th, 2021 TOPIC : CONQUEROR OF DEATH BIBLE TEXT : But Christ has indeed been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man. For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive. But each in turn: Christ, the firstfruits; then, when he comes, those who belong to him. - 1 Corinthians 15:20-23 Mark 5:21-43 tells the story of a man named Jairus whose daughter had died. He asked Jesus for help. Jesus told the mourners who had gathered that the girl wasn’t dead but was merely sleeping. The mourners laughed at him. Jesus took the girl by the hand and told her to get up. She got up. The mourners stopped laughing. Jesus showed his ultimate power over death three days after his crucifixion. His heart, which had stopped beating, started again. His lungs, which had stopped breathing, filled with air. His eyes, which had been closed, opened. His muscl

THE ULTIMATE POTTER

DATE : OCTOBER 29th, 2021 TOPIC : THE ULTIMATE POTTER BIBLE TEXT : Yet you, LORD, are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand. - Isaiah 64:8 Young children often love clay because it does whatever you want it to. It is easy to bend, fold and squish. And if you make a mistake, you can fix it instantly by pushing the clay back into place. Some of these children go on to become potters. They form intricate sculptures that sell in art galleries via social platforms for thousands of dollars both in Africa and overseas. They create gorgeous clay pots, mugs and bowls. These potters are artists. They put their heart and soul into their work. They are diligent, making sure that every aspect of their creation is just the way they want it. They know it has to be perfect because it will be a reflection of who they are as artists. In the hands of these talented artists, the clay becomes a masterpiece, bearing their signature. Get a m

MANY SPARROWS

DATE : OCTOBER 30th, 2021 TOPIC : MANY SPARROWS BIBLE TEXT : “Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.” - Luke 12:6-7 Have you ever really looked at a sparrow? They are small, insignificant birds. They don’t have flashy colors. They don’t sing loudly. They eat seeds and small insects. Sparrows are seemingly unimportant creatures, and yet not one of them is forgotten by God. In Matthew 10, Jesus tells us that not one sparrow will fall to the ground outside of our Father’s care (see vs. 29-30). If God cares for the sparrows this much, how much more does he care for us? He made human beings last, in his own image, and put us in charge of the earth. We are of tremendous value to God. God knows our every thought, our every feeling. He is with us every second of every day. He knows exactly how many hairs are on our heads. We are

IMAGE IS EVERYTHING

DATE : OCTOBER 28th, 2021 TOPIC : IMAGE IS EVERYTHING BIBLE TEXT : Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.” So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. - Genesis 1:26-27 God created human beings in his own image, in the likeness of the Trinity—God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. God did not create human beings as powerless and miserable creatures. He created Adam and Eve — and he created you—in his own image. So when a voice, either from another person or from inside of you, tells you that you are not worthwhile, remember that this just isn’t true. These are lies from the enemy, who doesn’t want you to remember who you are — God’s beloved child. When you feel bad about who you are, when you cut yourself down

ALL OVER THE WORLD

DATE : October 27th 2021 TOPIC : ALL OVER THE WORLD BIBLE TEXT: Everyone has heard about your obedience, so I rejoice because of you; but I want you to be wise about what is good, and innocent about what is evil. - Romans 16:19 There was a quiet woman who lived in a small town her name was Laura. She was very busy at home, taking care of her children and animals and tending her garden, so she didn’t even go out much. Yet everyone knew that Laura was a Christian. Even though most people in the town didn’t know her personally, everyone knew that she lived for the Lord. And when there was a crisis, when someone was sick and dying, or abused and scared, or grieving and confused, they came to Laura’s door. Paul opens his letter to the Romans by telling them, “Your faith is being reported all over the world” (Romans 1:8). Sixteen chapters later, he uses the verse above to help close his letter. Obviously, the believers in Rome had a widespread reputation for faith and obedience.

WALK THE TALK, AND PEOPLE TALK

DATE : October 25, 2021  TOPIC : WALK THE TALK, AND PEOPLE TALK BIBLE TEXT : At this, she bowed down with her face to the ground. She asked him, “Why have I found such favor in your eyes that you notice me—a foreigner?” Boaz replied, “I’ve been told all about what you have done for your mother-in-law since the death of your husband—how you left your father and mother and your homeland and came to live with a people you did not know before. May the LORD repay you for what you have done. May you be richly rewarded by the LORD, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take refuge.” - Ruth 2:10-12 Boaz did not yet know Ruth, but he had heard all about her. He had heard how she stood by her mother-in-law, Naomi, and he was impressed. Not only did he give Ruth food to feed Naomi and herself, but he also blessed her by wishing that God would reward her for her integrity. To have integrity means to have a solid foundation of values and the courage to stand by your beli

THE OUTSIDERS

DATE: 24th OCTOBER, 2021 TOPIC: THE OUTSIDERS BIBLE TEXT: Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; make the most of every opportunity. - Colossians 4:5 When Paul refers to “outsiders” here, he is referring to unbelievers. We need to be careful about how we act when we are around people who do not know God. It can be tempting when around unbelievers to act the way they do. Sometimes we feel like “no one’s watching” if the people we are with do not know how God wants people to behave. But this is precisely when others are watching—the unbelievers are watching. Whether they consciously think about it or not, they are observing our behavior. And if our behavior is godly, it will often lead to opportunities for us to share our faith with others. Someone is bound to ask us why we won’t let them cheat from our homework or why we won’t steal that lipstick. Someone will ask us why we don’t swear or drink or sneak out at night. Our time on earth is limited. We need to make the mo

PROGRESS IN VICTORY

DATE : OCTOBER 23RD 2021 TOPIC : PROGRESS IN VICTORY SCRIPTURE : 1 John 5:4 KJV - For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. As a believer, are you still pushing, driving forward in your pursuits and in the will of God? This morning, we see the fact that there is progress in Victory. You cannot be progressing in shame and attain victory, but when you stick to God’s word by applying them to His direction for life only then can you say you are progressing. What then is progress? A moment or advancement through a series of event. Jesus Christ progressed in victory on the cross, through the grave and now at the right Hand of the Father. Are you progressing or declining in life? Check yourself, are you following God’s instructions in Joshua 1 vs 8 or you are seeking the laws of power or motivational books by carnal men and women who know nothing about true progress. Awake from your slumber and ignorance

THE BLOOD OF JESUS

DATE : 22nd OCTOBER, 2021 TOPIC : THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST BIBLE TEXT: Romans 8:34 KJV Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us. We are so grateful that it was Jesus Christ who died for mankind and not man. The blood of Abel cries out for vengeance while the blood of Jesus Christ cries out mercy for the world, for the sinner and the saints in this world. Oh! What a wonderful plea. Jesus holds nothing against anyone, all he did was to pay a vital price. He held no grudge, no offence taken, no malice bought, no anger carried to the grave. None! Nothing against the wicked and envious Jews nor the Pharisees and scribes. He held nothing against Pilate for flogging him and ripping off his flesh. No! Not even they soldiers that spat on him and gambled for his garments. Even the soldier that slapped Jesus Christ on behalf of the Pharisees was forgiven. He forgave al

THE SERVANT SAVIOR

DATE : OCTOBER 21st, 2021 TOPIC : THE SERVANT SAVIOR SCRIPTURE : Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet. I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. - John 13:14 - 15 A certain senior pastor was only months into his tenure at his new church, when church members made an astonishing discovery about him. Following a special dramatic presentation in the sanctuary, participants began the laborious process of putting the large room back in order for the next service. Although the church employed several full-time custodians, the new pastor rolled up his sleeves and began to move furniture and vacuum the carpet. Church members exchanged stunned glances. Why are we so surprised when our leaders take on the role of a servant? We live in a culture where being a member of a certain group, “has its privileges.” We have become accustomed to leaders who would rather ascend to a position of status than sto

THE WISE BUILDER

DATE : 20th OCTOBER, 2021 TOPIC : THE WISE BUILDER BIBLE TEXT : Matthew 7:24 KJV Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: The anchor scripture reveals two kinds of men with regards to their lifestyle and their final destination. The word wise was attributed to one while the word fool was to the other man, because of their actions and responses. One's obedience to God's Will and the other's rejection and disobedience displayed. As a child of God, obedience becomes an ingredient or material for building spiritual and physical structures. We need to know that the desired foundation is already set, which is the Rock of Ages (Jesus Christ). We are expected to obey and build on Him and not seek out alternatives. The word of God carries the nails, the bolts, hammers, screws and other building materials for fixing and making firm our structures. The wise man utilized the avail

Trading Well

DATE : 19th October, 2021 TOPIC : Trading Well BIBLE TEXT: Matthew 25:16 KJV Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents. Beloved in Christ, we are to go about our Heavenly Father's business because much has been entrusted into our souls according to the several ability each and every one of us possess. Therefore we are all traders here on earth, sent to fulfill the Will of God. Jesus Christ has deposited into our spirits His goods (all spiritual blessings) for us to trade with. No man that is born of God, stays empty, no one! Everyone in Christ has a role to play in the fulfillment of the Will of God in the Holy Scripture. Have you discovered what kind of goods Christ Jesus has given to you before the foundations of this world were created? 2 Timothy 1:9 KJV Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in C

THE PRISONER OF CHRIST

DATE :  18TH OCTOBER, 2021 TOPIC : THE PRISONER OF CHRIST BIBLE TEXT : Philemon 1vs1 – Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, unto Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellow labourer. This is a word Apostle Paul used often times to describe his connection with Christ. He said, “He is a prisoner of Christ”. When you look at the lifestyle of a prisoner. The total upkeep and attention needed is provided by the warder. The prisoner is under the protection of the keeper like Paul was under the bonds of Christ. A prisoner has restricted movement around because he/she is directed and instructed by Christ, just as committed servants of God are obedient to God’s will for their lives. Under whose bonds are you? Are you a servant of God? Or a child of disobedience under satan’s rule? The master of every believer is Jesus Christ and we are kept in His secret place and abiding under the shadow of His Almighty wings. To be a prisoner of Christ, we must only exist and liv

THE GATEWAY

DATE:  17TH OCTOBER, 2021 TOPIC: THE GATEWAY BIBLE TEXT: JAMES 4vs7 – Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. The entrance into total freedom as a child of God is through submission. Christ Jesus has done all the major work that needs attention and expects us to submit to His authority. For us to gain access into kingdom tools for conquering in life as children of God. A lot people, including believers want to enjoy God’s freedom without submitting to God’s will. They live according to the standard of this world and still expects God to work things in their favour. You can't gain access into the benefits and blessings of God without first walking in through the gate called Christ. Our gateway as children of God into all of God’s promises comes through our submission to the will of God. It is our action of seeking God’s help and looking up to him that increases our faith in Him, which terrifies the devil. The life of freedom starts

WHO OWNS YOUR TONGUE

DATE :  16TH OCTOBER, 2021 TOPIC : WHO OWNS YOUR TONGUE?: BIBLE TEXT : Proverbs 18vs21 – Death and life are in the power of tongue; and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. The tongue is a little member of the body yet it carries great power! Just think of how a small flame can set a huge forest ablaze. The tongue is also a fire! It can be compared to the sum total of wickedness and is the most dangerous part of the human body. It corrupts the entire body and is a hellish flame! It releases a fire that can burn throughout the course of human existence. Knowing this facts, we must be careful how we use this small but powerful member of the body. Who owns your tongue beloveth? Yes, you are born again! Yes you are spirit filled but who is in charge of your tongue? King David the psalmist lent his tongue briefly to the devil as he lusted after Bathsheba and made a request of doom and his family fell into ruins; Joshua the son of Nun lent his tongue to God

REPLACE WORRY WITH FAITH

DATE: 15th OCTOBER, 2021 TOPIC: REPLACE WORRY WITH FAITH BIBLE TEXT: Luke 12:6 TPT "What is the value of your soul to God? Could your worth be defined by an amount of money? God doesn't abandon or forget even the small sparrow he has made. How then could he forget or abandon you? What about the seemingly minor issues of your life? Do they matter to God? Of course they do! So you never need to worry, for you are more valuable to God than anything else in this world. Dearly beloveth, stop worrying over everything and anything. Worrying has never solved a problem but creates more problems if left unchecked. There is hope this morning as God's Word of truth and life reveals to us that God is so mindful of every one of His children in Christ Jesus. Yes! God has the figures of our hair strands to detail, much more we His children! Whenever we speak Faith, we take positive steps/actions that attracts the LORD'S attention. But the worry-filled heart will never get

FAINT NOT!

DATE :  14TH OCTOBER, 2021 TOPIC : FAINT NOT! BIBLE TEXT : And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. - Galatians 6:9 God’s grace is sufficiently available to His children who depend on Him for strength and sustenance. The anchor scripture reveals the process of our journey and the outcome if we follow through. There’s a reward from the great rewarder unto diligent men, women and children. Hebrews 11:6b …for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. God rewards diligence and not sluggishness. Proverbs 22:29 – Seest thou a man diligent in his business? He shall stand before kings: he shall not stand before mean men. There’s no room for laziness, trust the LORD for strength (Philippians 4:13) and you’ll receive God’s empowerment to carry out your work, studies, ministry, business and various endeavors in your life. Look up to Christ that’s when your faith

HOPE (JUSTICE FOR THE POOR)

DATE : 13TH OCTOBER, 2021 TOPIC : HOPE (JUSTICE FOR THE POOR) BIBLE TEXT : Luke 4:18 TPT "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, and he has anointed me to be hope for the poor, freedom for the brokenhearted, and new eyes for the blind, and to preach to prisoners, 'You are set free!' I have come to share the message of Jubilee, for the time of God's great acceptance has begun." TPT Jesus Christ came with the heavenly information we call the Good News which is the Gospel of truth unto the poor in spirit. His mission has a purpose for everyone facing oppression and attacks from the devil. He came to set the captives free, to teach the poor the access route to receive victory and justice. Jesus went through the rural areas of Israel, from one village unto another, preaching and doing the work of our Heavenly Father. A certain woman, a daughter of Abraham was robbed of her freedom and could in no wise stand straight but was bent over for 18(eighteen) years. She

Speak Faith

DATE : 12th October, 2021 TOPIC : Speak Faith BIBLE TEXT : Joshua 10:12-13 Then spake Joshua to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorite before the children of Israel. Sun stand still upon Gibeon; and thou Moon, in the valley of Ajalon.. And the Sun stood still and the moon stayed... He never spoke a word that carried no life, yes Jesus never said a thing without the deposit of life in it. Our seriousness and concentration matters because a mere conversation could either bring life or death into the scene. We need to learn to listen and obey every word of God, for by it we obtain our desired results. Father Abraham was like no other man on the earth, he lived a life of faith. He spoke faith and brought forth nations by faith. God requested Isaac from Abraham and the scripture says that he willingly obeyed the Lord by pleasing Him. Genesis 22:7-8 Isaac inquired of his father concerning the sacrifice and Abraham spoke faith, which was also accounted unto Him

GOD’S TIME

DATE : OCTOBER 11, 2021 TOPIC : GOD’S TIME   BIBLE TEXT : Psalms 102vs13 – Thou shalt arise and have mercy upon zion; for the time to favour her, yea, the set time is come. The timing of our LORD is now! Not tomorrow or next season or next year. God’s timing can be likened to our faith. On several occasions different men and women have encountered Christ, the very moment they believed in Him, the matter was settled and they received wholeness, healing, deliverance and salvation. It is time to receive from the LORD and one ingredient is needful, you must have faith. For without faith it is “totally” impossible to please God nor understand his timing. God is never late, he doesn’t operate under the time frame of earth’s calendar. He reigns forever and speaks from infinity. He controls time and several occasions scripturally we witnessed by the Holy Spirit on two occasions how the LORD held the sun that is working with the moon for man’s seasons to stand still, just for the vi

SLUMBER NOT

DATE : OCTOBER 10, 2021 TOPIC : SLUMBER NOT   BIBLE TEXT : Proverbs 6vs4 – Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids.  Psalms 132vs4 – I will not give sleep to mine eyes, or slumber to mine eyelids. We serve our God who neither sleeps nor slumbers – psalms 121v3-4. God is watchful and expects us also to be watchful and not to slumber in the position he has placed us by his grace. Because we are all made in His image and likeness, so we have dominion over weakness. For His word says let the weak say, I am strong – Joel 3vs10. For we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us. Beloved, rise up in faith and slumber not, for it is dangerous. We see what happens while men slept (slumbered), his enemy came and sowed tares (damaging weed) among the wheat and went his way. Because of certain carelessness the enemy sows seeds that can damage our progress and walks away freely. We need to awake up and grow spiritually by studying daily the word of God and

PEACE WITHIN

DATE : OCTOBER 9, 2021 TOPIC : PEACE WITHIN   BIBLE TEXT : Philippians 4vs7 – And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. True peace is not common and cannot be obtained by excitements and activities of fun. The word God tells us, that the peace of God surpasses all understanding. The total concept of worldly knowledge and comprehension concerning peace here on earth cannot be equated with the peace God gives. From the scripture above we see that there are several channels of peace around the world and in heaven. But our concentration is on the one from God. When God gives peace it is permanent. The word of God says in Isaiah 26vs3 – “Thou (The LORD God) wilt keep him (anyone who believes in the gospel of peace) in perfect peace (complete harmony and sanity), whose mind is stayed on thee; because he trusteth in thee”. The final note there states that the word trust must be involved in order for us to receive G

HOLD THE LAMB

DATE : OCTOBER 8, 2021 TOPIC : HOLD THE LAMB  BIBLE TEXT: John 17vs8 – For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me. To hold the lamb is to hold to every word of God and every instruction he gives to you. He gave instructions to the Church because he believes in his sheep’s ability to listen to his every instruction and commands. The word of God is powerful likewise the connection we receive from Him when we believe his words. To hold on to the LAMB of God is to believe in Jesus Christ the son of the living God. Jesus gave us this fact in Matthew 5vs18 – for verily I say unto you, till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one title shall in no wise pass from the law, till all is fulfilled. With this light, we understand that whosoever holds on the lamb is connected to eternity and shall not perish with earth. God wants us to have faith steadfastly until he comes t

REMEDY FOR COMFORT

DATE : OCTOBER 7, 2021 TOPIC : REMEDY FOR COMFORT  BIBLE TEXT : Colossians 3vs16 and Ephesians 5vs19 – Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the LORD. The word of God this morning is served as a hot cup of coffee or tea with some extra toppings and honey. There is comfort in the word of God. The bible says, “the entrance of thy words giveth light,” – Psalm 119vs130. It is the light in us that burns out every darkness and saturates peace and joy within our soul. We are encouraged to let God’s word dwell (abide, reside) in us and also utilize the availability of God’s power in hymns, psalms and spiritual songs. A certain king of Israel was grieviously tormented by an unclean spirit and it made him to misbehave and lose his honour as a king. 1samuel 16vs14 – But the Spirit of the LORD departed from saul, and an evil spirit (permitted) from the

REDEEMED BY CHRIST

DATE : OCTOBER 6, 2021 TOPIC : REDEEMED BY CHRIST  BIBLE TEXT : Colossians 1vs14 – In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins. Hebrews 9vs12 – Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us. Beloved we owe everything we own, and all our lives to Christ. He alone went to the place angels could not, he reached the depths man could not, he paid the price, which money could not afford to pay. And shed his blood on the cross that animals blood could not atone neither any other man’s blood. What a great priviledge it is, that our redemption comes from the Son of righteousness, the Son of God. Through the blood of Jesus, we obtained forgiveness of sins. That’s why God’s word says; “if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature; old things (sins, mistakes and errors) are passed away (they are all dead and have no life again to torment us); behold, all

PRACTICE

DATE : OCTOBER 5, 2021 TOPIC : PRACTICE BIBLE TEXT : Joshua 1vs8 – This book of the law (The Bible) shall not depart out of thy mouth, but thou shalt meditate therein day and night; that thou mayest prosper observe to do according to all that is written therein; for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shall have good success. Joshua the son Nun, took over leadership after the death of Moses the servant of God over Israel. And the first instruction given to him by God concerning the Word of God was to practice it every day. To practice in relation to the knowledge (information) gained via study. The Word of God is to be practiced, studied and carefully followed repeatedly for us to comprehend what the LORD has instructed and has install for the church. We are instructed to keep the Word of God in our lips; i.e. we need to constantly practice every word until our mouths are filled and our tongues become transformed. There’s a saying that goes thus “practice

INGRATITUDE

DATE : OCTOBER 4, 2021 TOPIC : INGRATITUDE BIBLE TEXT: NUMBERS 11 VS 4 – And the mixt multitude that was among them fell a lusting: and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, who shall give us flesh to eat? Ingratitude simply means a lack or the absence of gratitude (thanklessness). The children of Israel displayed a high level of ingratitude towards God. Instead of thanking the Lord for their lives, breath, health, victories over slavery, poverty, torments and shame – they chose to pay the Lord with complaints and disgust. They started lusting after the flesh, seeking various ways of eating gluttonously and unhealthy diets. Numbers 11 vs. 5-6 – ‘we remember the fish, which we did eat in Egypt freely; the cucumbers and the melons, and the leeks (edible vegetables), and the onions and the garlics; but now our soul is dried away; there is nothing at all, beside this manna, before our eyes. The children of Israel showed not only ingratitude, but disdain. They despi

COMPANION

DATE : OCTOBER 3RD 2021 TOPIC : COMPANION BIBLE TEXT : JOHN 14 VS 17 – Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know Him; for He dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. Jesus Christ walk through the earth during His ministry days with His twelve disciples but none of them could fill the position of the Person of the Holy Spirit. Jesus was baptized in the Holy Spirit and went on with His Company until the end. The companion of Christ is the Holy Spirit. He is a friend, a comforter, an instructor, a director, energizer, a motivator and more. One with whom you keep company. Jesus always conversed with His companion and that is the reason why He made wise decisions and remained holy. As believers, the first companion we need is the Holy Spirit before anyone else. John 14 vs. 17 says …. “For He dwelleth with you” – what a company! A close companion that cares for you and ‘shall be in you’ – He takes control of

COMPASSIONATE LOVE

DATE : OCTOBER 2ND 2021 TOPIC : COMPASSIONATE LOVE BIBLE TEXT : LUKE 7:13 And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her, and said unto her, “weep not”. There lived a certain widow in the city Nain [a place of beauty and pleasantness] yet she had lost her husband and now her only son, while sorrow and sadness soaked her atmosphere. It was the burial day, and many mourned for the loss of her son, as they carried out his dead body reaching the city gates. There they were graced to encounter the resurrection and life himself near the gates. And when Jesus saw her, he was moved with compassion, knowing that she had lost so much. He spoke to the woman words of life and healing, he said; “Weep not” as the scripture says in Psalm 107:20 “…he sent forth his words to heal and deliver them from their destructions”. The next step he took was to stop the carriage, heading to the grave. Then Jesus said, “Young man I say unto thee, Arise!” and he that was dead sat up and began to sp

THE SOUND OF VICTORY

DATE : OCTOBER 1ST 2021 TOPIC : THE SOUND OF VICTORY  BIBLE TEXT: JOSHUA 6:20 So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city. Our God is an awesome wonder, He instructed Joshua the son of Nun to lead the children of Israel into the promise land which He showed Moses His servant. Jericho was a strong city well-guarded and covered but the LORD released a wonderful strategy as an instruction to His children to pull down barriers and hindrances, to destroy obstacles that seems impossible. With an obedient the children of Israel followed God’s instruction and moved with the priests holding trumpets of rams and the Ark of the LORD six days. And on the seventh, they went round Jericho seven times and at the seventh turn they shoute
