Finishing Strong

DATE   30th June, 2023 TOPIC Finishing Strong (With godly Patience) LIVING SCRIPTURE Isaiah 40:31 KJV But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. As children of God we need godly patience in order to finish strong in life, through stages and pursuits. Staying strong and courageous requires patience and trust in the Lord even when it doesn't look like what we are expecting or have planned. Constant seeking through the scripture helps to renew our strength and confidence while we wait for the move of God in our lives.  We see our Lord Jesus Christ this morning as an example in Hebrews 12:2 KJV Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. He patiently endured the cross he carried for us to have the joy of the LOR

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

Believe in Jesus Christ

DATE 27th June, 2023 TOPIC Believe in Jesus Christ LIVING SCRIPTURE John 14:1 KJV Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. Trusting the LORD is a blessing to God's children as it drives away the thoughts of unrest and troubles away from us. When we believe in Christ Jesus, we believe in the victory of the cross and the resurrection power and in the Holy Spirit. It is quite easy for many to believe in LORD God Almighty our Heavenly Father but our belief is not complete if we don't believe in Jesus Christ His dear Son. This stands as the truth but the Pharisees rejected it and stained the house of Israel with heresies and lies and many elects till date don't believe in Jesus Christ. Likewise the children of Abraham from Ishmael who deeply believe in God but reject the truth that they should also believe in Christ Jesus the Son of God. When we reject the truth then we reject salvation, healing, health, wealth, everlasting life, dominion and peace

Walking in His Shoes

DATE 26th June, 2023 TOPIC   Walking in His Shoes LIVING SCRIPTURE John 14:21 KJV He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. Jesus Christ walked in His Father's shoes by listening and obeying every command of God in love. His daily dealings where rooted in the ways our Heavenly Father did and it became a habit for Jesus Christ to talk like God, walk like Him, pray like Him and love like He loves, that brought the expression of Walking in God's shoes. Aside Christ Jesus, we hardly see any man on earth that can do that successfully but now we can by the grace of God by simply walking in Christ's shoes. The reason Apostle Paul told his disciples this truth in 1 Corinthians 11:1 KJV Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ -  He was showing them whose shoes he was walking in. Whose footprints can men trace in our lives, hom

Breakfast with Jesus

DATE 24th June, 2023 TOPIC Breakfast with Jesus LIVING SCRIPTURE Psalm 65:4 KJV Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach unto thee, that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, even of thy holy temple. The Psalmist was a peculiar man and one that feared the LORD and walked in the paths of righteousness. In his meditation and Psalms, he learnt to dine with Jesus Christ early and through Psalms, from the 63rd to the 66th, he found a way to breakfast with Jesus. The first contact we should have everyday is Jesus Christ, to receive of His glorious satisfaction early, contentment and to be filled with the goodness and mercy He gives His children daily. When a child eats with his parents there's that joy and peace within, such comfort and full assurance. Jesus Christ always ate with our Heavenly Father while He was here on earth, He sought after the LORD daily and was satisfied with the glory and goodness of the Father. Each

Christ is not far!

DATE 22nd June, 2023 TOPIC Christ is not far! LIVING SCRIPTURE John 14:16-17 KJV And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;  [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 came to save us and that we might be one just as He and the Father in Heaven are one. He is not far from those who believe in Him and His words but still many look to the sky or climb high mountains to find the Lord who sits gloriously in our hearts by His Spirit and Words. His words says that the comforter will dwell (continually live in) you and not just that but He will also be with you. He is within and without us in covering and inspiration. Seek not Jesus that is far but He that is closer to your heart and by your confessions daily. TO-DO Call on Him this morning from your hearts and worship and fellowship in the

When God Speaks

DATE 21st June, 2023 TOPIC When God Speaks LIVING SCRIPTURE Joshua 8:1 KJV And the Lord said unto Joshua, Fear not, neither be thou dismayed: take all the people of war with thee, and arise, go up to Ai: see, I have given into thy hand the king of Ai, and his people, and his city, and his land: The voice of the LORD indeed builds our strength and confidence not only in battle but also in everything we face and are faced with. When God Speaks, it will surely come to pass because His words are yes and Amen. Ai were a people so small but troubled Israel, this happened in the days of Joshua the servant of God. No nation dare to defeat them because God was with them and His words backed them up. But this small Ai ridiculed Israel because of the sin Achan committed and God's words ceased from backing them because of disobedience and iniquity. The voice of the LORD speaks over those who are obedient, loyal and submissive to His perfect will. And unknown to Joshua, he sent the people out t

Follow Jesus

DATE 20th June, 2023 TOPIC Follow Jesus LIVING SCRIPTURE John 10:4 KJV And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. The man called Jesus Christ was and is an extraordinary leader and master but before he became our role model, Savior, mentor and Lord, he followed the voice of someone called "The Heavenly Father". Jesus Christ listens to only the leadership of God the Father and his ministry and destiny became glorious. Likewise mankind we need to follow Jesus Christ because he is the way we are looking for and the way we don't know, the truth needed and the truth of God, the life of peace and righteousness and eternal life. Following Jesus Christ is following our Heavenly Father. Refusing to listen to him is refusing to listen to the LORD. Jesus Christ has never mislead anyone even from Genesis till date, all who seek him finds him and all who listens to him receives everlasting life. The LORD spoke to J

Before the Throne

DATE June 17th, 2023 TOPIC Before the Throne LIVING SCRIPTURE Hebrews 4:16 KJV Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. The feet of Jesus Christ has been a place of grace and victory for all who believes in Him. King David made a grave error as touching another man's wife and also in the coup and plot of her husband's demise. But he found mercy and grace because he ran to the feet of Christ and sought after God's only mercy and compassion upon his life and family. Likewise another mistake he did was transgression against God's direct command of not counting the children of Israel, which he did and faced God's wrath but pleaded for mercy and found it at the feet of Christ Jesus. What ever we face is not above Christ Jesus because all things in heaven and earth and under the earth are placed under the feet of Jesus Christ. And only those who come to his feet at the throne that receives the

keepers

DATE 16th June, 2023 TOPIC Keepers  LIVING SCRIPTURE Psalm 18:20-21 KJV The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness; according to the cleanness of my hands hath he recompensed me. [21] For I have kept the ways of the Lord, and have not wickedly departed from my God. The Psalmist lived a life built around the divine presence of God. He sought the LORD graciously and was indeed blessed and honored by the Lord according to his obedience and diligence service before the LORD. To be strong and courageous we need to be keepers of God's Word and doers of the same. Many are just following the train of church services and not fully maximizing the presence of God.  David was faced with different situations with king Saul but he kept himself from sinning against the anointed of God. He stored and treasured the word of God in his heart that will keep him away from the law of sin. We ought to store God's word in our hearts and meditate on them day and night. And the LORD rewarded his

The LORD'S Battle

DATE 15th June, 2023 TOPIC The LORD'S Battle! LIVING SCRIPTURE Psalm 68:1 KJV Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him. Mankind has been fighting wrongly and only those in Christ Jesus, that are able to surrender all to the LORD, that will partake of this kind of glorious victory where God takes up the battle. A very good and clear example of what God can do when He takes up the battle is the war between King Jehoshaphat of Judah against the Ammonites and Moabites and Mount Seir and how the King led the people to seek the mercy of God and the LORD spoke and went ahead of them to battle against their foes: 2 Chronicles 20:21-24 KJV And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto the Lord, and that should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army, and to say, Praise the Lord ; for his mercy endureth for ever.  [22] And when they began to sing and to praise, the Lord set ambushments against the

Words of Peace

DATE 14th June, 2023 TOPIC Words of Peace LIVING SCRIPTURE John 8:10-11 KJV When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?  [11] She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more. It was a normal day for Jesus Christ as he sat down for a cool breeze but not for a certain married woman who was the bait for another day for tempting Jesus. The Pharisees were relentless and set a trap for this woman who had no one to guide her nor the solution to her marital problems. She felt comfortable in a strangers arms and unknown to her it was a bundle of shame waiting for her and suddenly she was in their nets, eyes looking at her and fingers of accusations. She was brought before Jesus Christ who sat down as He taught the people. The only words that rang in her mind and hearts were filled with sorrows and unrest because she had missed it by falling for t

Walk away from Limits

DATE 13th June, 2023 TOPIC Walk away from Limits LIVING SCRIPTURE Romans 8:7 KJV Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. To be courageous requires everything that builds up to courage and all the attributes of God increases our faith but there is a way that is harmful to our decrees and declaration. The carnal mind set! This way doesn't agree with the Spiritual laws of life and the things of God, it causes arguments and discords and separates a godly man from God. This is a limitation that every strong and courageous child of God must walk away from. The carnal mind only sees through the physical and disagrees with faith. Thomas the disciple of Jesus Christ was one of those who walked in limitations while even walking with Jesus. After the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, Thomas was strongly doubtful about the testimony of the risen Christ. Others believed and were joyful and faithful but Thomas used phys

Jealous for You

DATE June 12, 2023 TOPIC Jealous for You LIVING SCRIPTURE Exodus 34:14 KJV For thou shalt worship no other god: for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God: Our Heavenly Father is jealous for us in every aspect of life. He introduced Himself as a Jealous God, a lover with distinctive features made exclusively for His creations. The way and manner of care and love God has for us cannot be explained but seen through His actions and through the Bible. His kind of Jealous it is not wicked, it is not obsession and there is no darkness involved. But rather we see a compassionate God who has all and knows what we need and is ready to fulfill all our expectations. The children Israel gave God a hard time because they gave God 40-50% of their love while God gave them a 100% of His love. We see that this maths is not balanced as they wanted God to remain faithful on His path while they remained unfaithful and unfair to His demands and commands. In God's hands is everything that man

Victory

DATE 3rd June, 2023 TOPIC Victory LIVING SCRIPTURE 2 Chronicles 20:20-22 KJV And they rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa: and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem; Believe in the Lord your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper. [21] And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto the Lord, and that should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army, and to say, Praise the Lord ; for his mercy endureth for ever.  [22] And when they began to sing and to praise, the Lord set ambushments against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, which were come against Judah; and they were smitten. The victory King Jehoshaphat enjoyed because God's Word came to him and all of Judah. There was a battle ahead of Judah from the Moabites and the Ammonites who were physically strong and coming to destroy and to fight against
