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 things are become new. The purity of the blood of Jesus Christ made our lives brand new and now acceptable before God the Father in heaven. 

The blood of Christ is the force of exchange that bought back our freedom from sin and hell, that’s why Apostle Paul wrote in col. 2vs14 – Blotting out (removing forcefully) the handwriting of ordinances (statements and decrees) that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it (crucifying it) to his cross (the place of freedom and victory). He went on to say in 1Corinthians 15vs55 – O death (birth from sin) where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? Sin has no more wins over us in Christ Jesus as long we abide in the righteousness of God. Let us be thankful to God for the gift of salvation, redemption and sanctification in Christ Jesus.

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank you intentionally for buying me back with your holy blood thank you for paying the price.

Insight: And we overcame him (satan) by the blood of the lamb.

MARY, DID YOU KNOW?

Date - December 19th, 2021 Topic - MARY, DID YOU KNOW? Bible Text - But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God. You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus.” - Luke 1:30-31 If God had asked the women of Israel who wanted to be the mother of the Messiah, every one of them would have raised her hand. If they had known what that privilege would actually involve—becoming pregnant before marriage, enduring terrible gossip, watching helplessly as their Son was mocked, ridiculed, tortured and crucified—those hands would have come down in a hurry. Mary certainly didn’t volunteer for the job. And she was stunned to discover she’d been selected for such an important role. She handled the extraordinary situation with grace and humility. She asked one question to help her understand God’s plan, then agreed to it immediately. God has a plan for each of us. Ours may not be as earth-shattering as Mary’s. Ou...

NOW

Date 📅 18th October, 2022 Topic NOW Living Scripture Hebrews 11:1,7 KJV Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. [7] By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith. Now we begin to walk in the ways of faith and truth as our fathers in faith and mighty men of old and just as they witnessed the glory of God first hand so shall we if we act now. The perfect example is Noah and the ark, a man of grace and wisdom. The world was stained with disobedience, sinful ways and thick immoralities. And God decided to wipe the inhabitants of the earth with a great flood such as have never been before and even after. The heavens where ready to open the flood gates and the earth to let out her waters. When God spoke to Noah, he acted immediately and finished the ark on time and he eva...

Inside Jesus

DATE 28th June, 2023 TOPIC Inside Jesus LIVING SCRIPTURE John 15:4 KJV Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. Inside Jesus Christ the Lamb of God is where we must dwell. Just like a baby is carried in the womb of her mother for months, so must all God's children follow. The anchor scripture reveals that we must abide inside the cleft or riven side of Jesus Christ just as He also dwells inside us. No child of God or minister should ever think that he or she is sufficient or has attained a certain height in Christ Jesus to stand alone or even abide by themselves.  Our productivity of bearing fruits in this world either by evangelism, good deeds, love or any action can only be possible when we are intimate with Christ as He is with us. Without Christ Jesus inside us we cannot or it is impossible to grow spiritually and physically. Inside Christ Jesus contains all life's resources and...
