Human being communicates with his sense organs. Every one communicates one way or the other either with himself ,environment or God.

When it comes to communicating with God, there are ways human being communicates with God e.g prayer and fasting, praise, obeying his commandments.

God communicates with human in different forms or ways. One of the instruments God uses in man to communicate with him is his mind/sight. It doesn't matter whether you are blind or deaf. If someone's eye is blind at least he would use his mind to reason and see things in his mind. That is why your mind is your eyes and your eyes is your mind. The content of your sight affects your mind.

[b][/b] luke 6:45

A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of.


Therefore, it's important to keep these particular instruments of our lives effective and alive for God to use to communicate with us. We need to understand that dirty mind/eye attract darkness while a clean eyes or mind attracts light( God).

Jesus said in

Luke 11:34-36
34 Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are healthy,[a] your whole body also is full of light. But when they are unhealthy,[b] your body also is full of darkness. 35 See to it, then, that the light within you is not darkness. 36 Therefore, if your whole body is full of light, and no part of it dark, it will be just as full of light as when a lamp shines its light on you.”


HOW TO CONNECT TO GOD

John14:6
Jesus told him ' I am the way-
Yes, and the truth and the life. No one can GET to the father except by means of me (JESUS ).

John15:23
Anyone that is hating me ( JESUS )
is hating the father (GOD)

Colossian 2: 10
So you have everything when you have christ and you are filled with GOD through your union with CHRIST. He is the highest RULER, with authority over every other power.

Such is for every human being in the course of our journey on earth. Everything that we would ever need to survive on earth has been worked out by God..

Isaiah 46:4

I am your God and will take care of you until you are old and your hair is grey. I made you and will care for you; I will give you help and rescue you.


Psalm 146:7 He gives justice to the oppressed and food to the hungry. The LORD frees the prisoners.

The truth is after the fall of first man and woman God withdrew many of it's blessings from us. and satan was given power to torment or kill his prisoners. God in his mercies that endureth forever decided to show us mercy to deliver us from satan by sending us messiah ( Jesus ) to deliver us.

John 4:25 - 26

The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah is coming (he who is called Christ). When he comes, he will tell us all things.
Then Jesus told her I am the messiah.

Now it is established that through this messiah ( Jesus ) we are connected to God and all our needs are met and also delivered from the prison of the devil.

Now as many that connect to this messiah (Jesus ) are given authority over satan to retrieve their stolen goods and enjoy it because the pain in retrieving it has been paid for by the messiah ( Jesus ). The truth is as this world is concerned is either you serve God or satan.

1kings 18:21
21 Elijah went before the people and said, “How long will you waver between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow him; but if Baal is God, follow him.

WHY ARE WE NOT IN POSSESSION OF THE " PAID FOR GOODS?"

*We are ignorant of the fact that these goods ( good things of life good health, protection,help, prosperity e.t.c ) have been paid for by the messiah ( Jesus ) already.

* Devil stole these paid for goods away from us since we are ignorant of them
* We are not connected to the one ( Jesus ) who paid for the goods.
* We reject God's special offer of deliverance ( Jesus the messiah )


HOW CAN WE CONNECT TO  JESUS?[/b]

The simple way to connect to Jesus is to ask him to come into your life and be the lord and saviour of your life forever, follow and believe in him.

John 12:44-46
Jesus shouted to the crowd if you trust me you are really trusting God. for when you see me , you are seeing the one who sent me.  I have come as a light  to shine in this dark world , so that all who put their trust in me  will no longer wander in the darkness.

Just like our houses where the door serves as an entrance to the content therein in the house so also is life structured the same way. life is structured to possess doors that through these doors we may gain entrance to the treasures of life. Life in itself is beautifully designed by God and God added no sorrow to it. God had loaded this life with good treasures he wanted us to discover and to possess them

Proverbs 10:22
The blessing of the LORD makes a person rich, and he adds no sorrow with it

Revelation 3:20
Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Me.


The fact is that these wonderful doors are closed as a result of sin ( satan ) or wickedness of agent of darkness in many peoples life. The Good news is that Jesus had conquered the work of darknesss and released the people to liberty. Jesus owns the keys to all closed doors of life that are valid for life. No wonder Jesus says ...

Matthew 16:19

I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”

Revelation 3:7
“And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: He who is HOLY, who is true, who has the KEY of David, who opens and no one will shut, and who shuts and no one opens, says this:

TYPES OF LIFE SPIRITUAL DOORS
- Gods door
- Satans door

Gods door and key are the original key and door that give good treasures of life while satans own is the fake key and door that are meant to enslave people e.g door of sickness, door of failure, door of financial breakdown, door of dealth, door of fornication and adultery and others. While satans keys and doors manifest inform of SIN Gods own keys and doors manifest inform of "GODS WORD". Just as the it is written in

Psalm 107: 20
He sent out his word (Gods keys and doors) and healed them, snatching them from the door of death ( Satans key and door ). God sent his keys to open up the door that satan had closed.

Until we find the key we may not be able to open the door. People of God don't let our hearts be dragged away or disttracted away from Gods word because it is the key to opening many of our closed doors. One of the ultimate goals of the devil is to close our door of glory while at the same time preventing us from possessing the original Gods key (word ) from opening these doors. Devil wants us to live our lives without opening the Bible to study the Word of God which has solutions to challenges that confront us. Remember...

Joshua 1:8
This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

The more we know and do Gods word the more we possess Gods keys to opening closed doors by Satan and its agents. Therefore make up your mind TODAY to making reading and doing Gods word a special PROJECT of your life.

It is paramount to always stay in God's rest whether in seasons of trouble or season of blessings.

God's rest is a place of peace of mind for the soul , body and spirit. Jesus admonished us that when we hear of the rumour of war or trouble we should enter God's rest ( not be troubled ) Matt 24:6

HOW TO ENTER GOD'S REST

The major foundational way to enter God's rest is by knowing God's word and secondly believing in God's word.

Case study 1

Heb 4:12

For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.

Note that God's word is not ordinary it's backed by the supernatural power of God. It is this word of God that Elijah used in his time to make the rain not to fall for 3 and a half year( 1king 17 and 18 chapters). It was the same word that Jesus used in healing and deliverance. Remember Jesus said these words I speak to you are not mine but that of my father.

These words from God need our faith to be activated to become supernatural in our lives. Our faith in God is important in entering God's rest just as the bible says

Heb 4:3
Now we who have believed enter that rest, just as God has said, "So I declared on oath in my anger, 'They shall never enter my rest.'" And yet his works have been finished since the creation of the world.

Case study 2

Jeremiah 29:10-11

This is what the LORD says: “You will be in Babylon for seventy years. But then I will come and do for you all the good things I have promised, and I will bring you home again.

Here talks about how God sent part of the israelites into exile to babylon where they would stay for 70 year without returning home. When it eventually happened God sent his prophets to remind the people being exiled into babylon of his plan that they would be there for a life time of 70 year.

Now , those of the people that are exiled that received and believed this message had total rest in God. These set of people would settle down immediately they get to babylon, rent farms, plant economy trees that take have 50year of life span , buy properties, and start making long term plans ( 30-50 year ) as God favours them in babylon because they would not be coming back home soonest not at least in the next 70 year.

On the other hand those that do not believe God's message that they would be staying that long in babylon. These set of people would say to themselves probably the babylonians would allow us back to our country after six month, 2 year, 5 year, 15year, or 30year with just a heavy taxing from them on us.

Therefore, their minds would be divided between two opinions of whether to settle down in babylon, farm, plant economy trees that have 10-30year life span and make long term plans of 40-70 year. Eventually these set of people would have their minds troubled and miss out on many good things.

Knowing God's word and believing them helps us enter God's rest at all time.

There is a saying that as " it is done on earth so it's done in heaven." It is a known fact that human being consist of both spirit and soul that live in a body. Now just as the physical body eats to grow strength to enable it go about it's daily activities so also are our souls and spirits .

Many of us only specialise or pay attention on feeding our physical bodies alone not to die of hunger. In case you don't know your SPIRIT AND SOUL also need to feed on food to live , get energy to serve you well. Now, with this understanding the questions are....

* What kind of food do we feed them with?

*How can we feed our spirits/souls?

*What are the consequences of not feeding our spirits/souls?

*What are the benefits of feeding our souls/spirit?

WHAT KIND OF FOOD DO WE FEED OUR SPIRITS/ SOULS?

Unlike our physical body that needs physical food our spirits/soul need SPIRITUAL food.

John 6:27
Do not work for the food that perishes but for the food that endures to eternal life, which Jesus will give to you, for on him the father God has set His seal.

John 10:9
I am the door, if anyone enters through me he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture ( food )

Ultimately the kind of food to feed our souls/spirit is the WORD OF GOD through Jesus Christ. There two forms of spiritual food that we eat.

* God's spiritual food
This is the food we eat each time we believe
and OBEY God's word through our lord
Jesus Christ

*Satan spiritual food
This is the food we eat each time we obey the devil ( enemy of God ) and disobey God ( the maker of our breath, spirit, soul, body and all our ways ). This kind of food gives us strength and confidence to do all manner of terrible evil things that God is against.

HOW CAN WE FEED OUR SPIRITS/SOULS?

The word of God is the spiritual food for our souls and spirit. The first thing is to qualify to access the food ( God's word) and the second thing to do is eating it ( believing in God's word ). That means that the "believing and obeying of God's word" is the actual "eating of spiritual food" we talking about.

John 4:34
Jesus said unto them " my food is to do the will of him who sent me, and to finish his work

Matt 4:4
But he answered " it is written man shall not live by bread alone but by every word (food ) that comes from the mouth of God

What Jesus was saying in effect was that he couldn't survive SPIRITUALLY if he didn't do God's will and finish his work. He was saying that these things are spiritual food without them we can't grow spiritually and survive.

CONSEQUENCES OF NOT FEEDING OUR SOULS/SPIRITS

* We are unable to hear or see from God.
* We become a slave to sin.
* We give satan easy access to afflict us with negativities of live.

These are the basic foundational consequences from which other consequences generate from. Take for example when you can't hear or see from God many things would be heading to wrong direction in your life. You won't know your rights when satan comes to carry out it's wicked act.

ADVANTAGES OF FEEDING YOUR SPIPIT/SOUL

When you feed your spirit/soul with spiritual of of God's word, you stand to benefit alot

* You are able to hear and see from God.
* Sin will practically be irritating to you
* You drastically close the door through which devil can access you.
* You become incharge of the devil and not the other way round

WHO REALLY IS JESUS?

Jesus is the person that had been long prophesied about by prophets that lived hundred and thousands of years before the birth of Jesus as being the messiah and son of God.
Prophets like Isaiah, David, Micah, Zechariah and others prophesied about Jesus being the messiah and son of God. You can find the prophecies of these prophets in the following book of the bible
Micah 5: 2
Isaiah 53
Psalm 2:6-12
Zechariah 9:9

WHAT WERE HIS MISSIONS?

Jesus missions can be classified into the following:

To set people free from bondage of the devil

One of the missions of the coming of Jesus to the world is to set people free from bondage of the devil e.g sicknesses, infirmities and others so that everybody can live a peaceful live.

John 8:36
So if the son of God set you free, you are free indeed

Rom 3:21-22 and 25
But now God has shown us a different way to heaven not by being good enough and trying to keep his laws, but by a new way. Now God says he will accept and acquit us and declare us not guilty if we trust Jesus christ to take away our sins. And we all can be  saved in this same way, by coming to Christ, no matter who we are  or what we have been like. Also ephesian 3:12, Gal:1-5,

To teach people the truth about God.

Jesus came to teach the world about the practical truth about God's plan for the people of the world.

John 7:16
And Jesus told them am not teaching you my own thought, but those of God who sent me.
 
To create a platform to link people to heaven and God ( messiah )

Jesus came to the world as the messiah being the son of God. Gods plan is that through Jesus we can connect to heaven and arrive at heaven eventually.

John 14:6
Jesus told him I am the way .Yes and the truth and life . No one can get to the father except by the means of me.

HOW CAN WE CONNECT TO  JESUS?

The simple way to connect to Jesus is to ask to come into your life and be the lord and saviour of your life and believe in him.

John 12:44-46
Jesus shouted to the crowd if you trust me you are really trusting God. for when you see me , you are seeing the one who sent me.  I have come as a light  to shine in this dark world , so that all who put their trust in me  will no longer wander in the darkness.
