TIME CHANGES EVERYTHING
‎
 Man can control practically everything, but man cannot control time.
The best that man can do is make good use of the time available to him or her.
‎
Scripture: ‎“The days of our years are three score years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be four score years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away." (Psalm90:10)‎
‎‎
We spend 98 percent of our lives doing every other thing but building a relationship with God whom we are meant to live with for eternity.
‎
The window of our existence on this earth is like a grain of sand‎ on the beach of eternity, and most times we prefer to spend it on less relevant things than to invest in our eternity, leaving us as strangers to it.
‎
How many of us will welcome a stranger in your home and give them full benefits?
Imagine being cast away, a ‎stranger at heavens gate just because we misplaced our priorities.
‎
"Depart from me for I do not know you"
‎
PRAYER:
Father, forgive me for misplaced priorities in my life.
Give me more grace of fellowship with you.
I pray that my fellowship with you will teach me to love you and all you have created, and lead me to everlasting life in Jesus Holy name I pray
Amen
‎
Store up your treasures

THE NEED TO BE CHRISTIAN
‎
  The world is becoming more religious by the day, Buddhist, Traditional worshippers, Ritualists, Satanists, Muslims, Atheists  and other religious practitioners are becoming more aggressive in the practice of their religions. 
 This aggressive approach has lead to extreme cases of violence that have made many countries and parts of the world unsafe to live in.
‎
Christians (so called) on the contrary, have become colder by the day. 
They have become so cold that they even embrace abnormal behaviours and abomination such as homosexuality, indecent dressing and severe vanity(s). ‎
Christians have left the message of Holiness, evangelism and salvation.‎
‎
Scripture: "‎the king was angered and sent his armies and they destroyed those he invited for the wedding feast and burned up their cities. Then he said to his servants, ‎
"The wedding is ready, but they which were invited were not worthy. Go ye into the highways and as many ye find, invite to the marriage" (Matthew 22:7-9)‎
  ‎
‎God will reject those who say they are Christians but are not, be warned.
‎
PRAYER:‎
Almighty God deliver us Oh Lord from the lukewarm spirit that has taken over your Church.
"Blow ye the trumpet in Zion and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the Lord cometh, for it is nigh at hand."‎
Amen‎
‎
Awake from your slumber.

THE JOY OF THE LORD
‎
‎I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth (Psalm 34:1 NKJV).
‎
Did you know it is possible to experience the joy of the Lord on a continual basis? 
The key to experiencing continual joy is developing a heart that is filled with continual praise and a willingness to view your life—past, present, and future—with a positive attitude.
‎
The Israelites were surrounded by the goodness of God as they journeyed through the desert to freedom.‎
Had they viewed their circumstances positively, and acknowledged the goodness of God, and walked in joy of the Lord, they would have gone straight into the good land. Their negativity robbed them of joy, dishonored God, and cost them the good life.
‎
‎You experience joy when you focus on the goodness of God in your life.‎
‎Continuous joy produces continuous praise for all the good things God has done and is going to do.‎
‎
PRAYER:‎
My good God, whose mercy endures forever, I choose to trust in you with every aspect of my life—past, present, and future—knowing that you are able to turn every situation and circumstance for my good. In your mercy, I will praise you continually in my life
Amen‎
‎
Keep a positive view‎

CANCER‎
‎
Cancer is a horrible illness and it eats deep in the health of people affected, it also eats deep into the hearts and the emotions of friends ‎and family of the affected person.
‎
Many people have died of Cancer, some of ignorance, and a few others have died while waiting earnestly for a miracle without going for treatment. ‎
If diagnosed with cancer, it is ok to trust for a miracle but please never ignore going for medical treatment‎... ‎
"for faith without works is dead" (‎James 2:17-19)
‎
When cancer is detected early, it can be treated, and with prayers, it is more effectively cured.
Inspect yourself often, reporting all irregularity(s) to a medical personnel.
‎
‎‎PRAYER:
Father, have mercy on my friends and my family, 
Oh Lord God, have mercy on me also in the name of Jesus.
Deliver us oh God almighty from all forms of illness and all evil, and in your loving mercy an kindness, please do not deny us of healing when we pray to you in the Holy name of Jesus‎
Amen
‎
Please Go for a screening yearly if you can afford to.

FORGE FORWARD
‎
I do not consider, brethren, that I have acheived yet; but one thing I do however, is forgetting what I have done in past times, and work harder (do my best) to reach what lies ahead so that I may succeed. ‎
—Philippians 3:13 (rephrased)‎
‎
Paul knew the one thing that would help him more than anything was to forget the past.
‎
How do we forget what lies behind us—the situations in our pasts, especially those things causing us to feel guilty or even succesful?
*We stop thinking and talking about them, and keep pressing forward. 
‎
We all have a past, but we also all have a future! 

Stop living in the past mentally and emotionally, and believe by faith that good things and greater glory are ahead.‎
‎
Don’t focus on things you can no longer do anything about, and don’t waste time in regret. Even though we make mistakes in life, we can recover and still enjoy an amazing life through Christ. 
‎
Get excited! Good things are coming!‎
‎
PRAYER:
Father, you said in your word that behind me is the wilderness, and before me is Eden (Joel 2:3)‎
I believe your word and plans towards me.
I give up my past O Lord, and surrender my life to you. Please take control oh Lord and lead me in your will for me in Jesus Holy name
Amen‎
‎
My past is the past; God has a good plan for my future‎

GOD IS ‎"LOVE"
‎
 Very recently, was discovered a young woman of about 19year old named "Rahana Haruna" who lives in a small rubber tub, born with very little or Nothing of a body (you can Google the name).
T‎here are countless accounts of people born with extreme deformities too‎.
‎
Scripture: "And God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them" (Gen 1:27)

After reading this scripture passage, One may be tempted to ask; *Are these also made in the image of God?‎

The Answer is YES

The image of God is not in perfect images, sand, stone, dust or precious metals and stones, the image of God is..... LOVE, and the devil trembles at this mystery.‎

LOVE overcomes all things, is above all things.
‎
Let us practice love unfeigned to one another, because as we express honest love to one another just as we love ourselves, we express the image and likeness of the living God in our daily life.

God bless you as you see your neighbour as yourself and love them too in Jesus name
Amen

WHAT LOVING JESUS MEANS‎

A picture on a post read "I LOVE JESUS because I'm a muslim" ‎‎
‎It's a lovely picture and it preaches the peace we hope for.

Loving Jesus is not about loving Jesus as an person or as a sign post,...‎
‎
Loving Jesus is about loving those who are  living above the love of the dead, loving your neighbour as yourself.

Loving Jesus is really about 
- Loving God, 
- understanding his words, ‎
- obeying His teaching ‎
- *and believing that Jesus Christ died for our sins and after 3days God raised Him from the dead so that you and I will have eternal life thru him.
‎
‎This is what it means to love Jesus
‎
PRAYER:
Help us to Love you Oh Lord in deed and in truth with all our heart in Jesus holy name 
Amen

(JOHN 3:16)

WATCH THIS MARCH‎

Mark 14: 38 Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak.

When your prayer life starts to reduce, your relationship with the Lord equally reduces leaving you vulnerable to temptations.
If you fail in your responsibility of prayer, you will fall into various temptations that will cost you your heavenly home with Jesus.

LUKE 21: 36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

Haven't you considered? ...this is why we fail to live the right Kind of christian life? 

"Your Prayer life is your Christian life"
‎
Let us awake up from our spiritual slumber, WATCH and PRAY, pray without season. A person who prays often overcomes often.

PRAYER
Father, forgive me for failing in the place of prayer, give me grace that I may grow in my prayer life. 
Please Father, lead me not into temptation Today, I offer my life to you, please lead me in the way that I should go.
Strengthen me in the place of prayer and baptize me with your spirit and with fire to enable me follow you in Jesus holy name
Amen
‎
"Pray often"

THEY THAT ARE OF CHRIST

Scripture" And they that are Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and appetites and desires.
If we live by the Holy spirit, let us also walk by the Holy spirit." (Galatians 5:24)

True fellowship begins when you step up your Christian desire with Holiness in focus.
‎
Prayer:
Lord JESUS‎!!, please have mercy on me, Deliver me from this body of sin, ‎
Help me O Holy spirit of God in Jesus Holy name‎
Amen

"Sin is a great stumbling block of true worship"

HOPE

"HOPE" is a mystery revealed only to man.

If you have great hope, even when you do not have sight of your destination, or you seem to have lost sight of it, your faith will gradually become tangible.‎
‎
Scripture: "Faith is a substance of things Hoped for..."‎
(Hebrew 11:1)
‎
In whatever you are going through, and for whatever you beleieve in God for, never lose Hope.
Hope is that rare mystery revealed to you that makes your faith come alive.‎
‎
‎PRAYER:
Father, I trust in you alone for all my hopes and all my dreams. 
I believe that you sent your Son Jesus Christ to make a way for me even where there seems to be no way.
Father please let my miracle be made manifest in your Holy name so that your name will be glorified in my life, and the life of all who know me
Amen‎
‎
"Christ in You, the hope of Glory"‎

WE HAVE FOUND THE CHRIST‎
Scripture: “The next day John the Baptist was standing with two of his own followers. Jesus walked by. John looked at Him and said, “See! The Lamb of God.” John’s two followers heard him say this and followed Jesus.

Jesus turned around and saw them following. He said to them, “What are you looking for?” They answered, “Teacher, where are you staying?” He said to them, “Come and see.” They followed Him and saw where He lived. They stayed with Him that day. It was about four o’clock in the afternoon.‎

Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, was one of the two who had heard John’s words and had followed Jesus. The first thing he did was to find his brother Simon. He said to him, “We have found the Christ!” Andrew took Simon to Jesus. When Jesus saw Simon, He said, “You are Simon, the son of John. Your name will be Cephas.” The name Cephas means Peter, or a rock.”  (John 1:35-42)

Jesus asked the two who followed Him, “What are you looking for?” Isn't that a great question? 

How would you answer Jesus if He asked you why you are following Him?‎

PRAYER:‎
Father I pray that my fellowship with you may teach me to love you and all you have created, and lead me to everlasting life in Jesus Holy name I pray
Amen
‎

A SEASON OF WEAKNESS
‎
Life is characterised with ups and down, ‎
Times of good health and time of ill health,‎
Times of plenty and times of scarcity,‎
Times of great rejoicing and times of sorrow,‎
‎Times of success and times of failure,
‎
To every thing, there is a time, and to every time a season.‎
‎
These times and seasons occur for reasons, sometimes good and sometimes bad, but know this, ...for those who are saved and redeemed by the blood of Jesus‎, all those who have surrendered their life to Jesus,
"All things work together for goo‎d to those that love God and are called according to his purpose" (Roman 8:28)
‎
These down times are times of reflection and reassessment. These season are not meant to discourage you, but to strengthen you and prepare you for greater tasks.‎
May the Lord help us to understand his purpose for us in Jesus Holy name.‎
‎
PRAYER:‎
Father please open the eyes of my understanding that I may be able to understand ‎your purpose for me in every season in Jesus Holy name
Amen

Favor of God

Scripture:“The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and His ears are attentive to their cry.”Psalm 34:15

You might be surprised to learn that those whom God favors sometimes experience pain and suffering. We might not understand it, but God shows His favor and His love in many different ways. 

Do not be dismayed‎ when you fall into diverse temptations, always remember that God your Father is with you at such times.

PRAYER:‎

My Father, please give me strength to overcome in all things that life brings my way and please Lord, never depart from me.‎ 

‎Enlarge my coasts, to the Glory of your name, and bless me with wisdom so that I may always remain under your watch.‎

Thank you Lord for prayers answered in Jesus Holy name
Amen

STICK MEN

Sometimes, we get soo weak, and seem to begin to break under existing pressures of life.
We wish to give up because we feel we can't handle the situation ourselves any longer.

A little "more" pressure could break the toughest material; pressures of life may have taken its toll on us and left us as fragile as a stick of broom.

At this low point, please don't give up I beg you, instead plead the blood of Jesus over your situation, call upon the name of Jesus.

Even just the name of Jesus, and your relief will certainly come.

Jesus!!!

"And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness.
Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
(2Corinth 12: 9)

The name Jesus is a strong tower, the righteous run into it and are saved.

PRAYER
Father give us the strength to stand at our weakest points in Jesus Holy name.
We rely on you Lord
Amen

FAMILY
‎‎
There are times when we have probably despised parents, our siblings or spouses. 
Dear friend, please whatever you do, always remember that Family is everything.‎
‎
It is the basic block of the culture of true and pure love, and it is one thing that the devil earnestly seeks to destroy, it is the first line of attack of a nation.‎
‎
Once the family goes wrong, the society goes wrong.‎
‎
If you have any ill feeling about your siblings or spouse(s), please forgive them... ‎
Pray for them.. educate them whenever you can, teach them on reasons why family needs to be close.‎
‎
God help us as we build our roots,"for if the foundation is faulty, what can the righteous do" (Psalm 1:3)‎
‎
‎PRAYER: ‎
Our Father, and our God we bless you for this day, we bless you for Our family and we bless you also for those that do not have family, yet treasure the idea of having a good and God fearing family.‎
We surrender our family(s) and our lives to you, we also commit others to you also.‎
Father, please Let your Love abide greatly amongst us in our homes I pray in Jesus ‎Holy name‎
Amen
‎
‎"Love conquers all things"

ANOTHER DAY‎
‎‎
Every sunrise that we witness is another reason to praise and thank God, every day we see is a miracle.

‎"Give thanks to the Lord for he is Good, and His mercies endure for ever, 
‎Give thanks to the God of gods. His faithful love endures forever. 
Give thanks to the Lord of lords. 
His faithful love endures forever.
Give thank to Him who alone does mighty miracles
For His mercies endures forever‎" (Psalme36: 1-4)‎
‎
PRAYER: ‎
Faithful God we bless you for this day, we bless you for another week.‎
Let your Glory overshadow us O Lord, and let your tender mercies follow us.
Forgive our every sins Lord, wash us clean in your blood that your will be done in our lives in Jesus Holy name‎
Amen
‎
‎"Give thanks in all things"

ONE BIG HUG‎
‎‎
An Indian man one day on a train in the US was acting soo eratic.‎ And everyone was scared to approach him to calm him down.
He made everyone afraid and uncomfortable, and noone could calm him down.
‎
Then an old woman who seemed to just board the train and after observing the situation, walked up to the man and ‎gave him a big hug, rocking him like a baby and whispering calm words to him.
‎
Suddenly, the man calmed down and everything became at peace.
‎
When the woman was asked h‎ow she was able to calm him down, she replied saying 
"Everyone needs a little love"
‎‎
Scripture: "Though I speak with the tongues of men and angels,.. though I prophesy, and have great knowledge, though I have faith and perform great miracles,... If I do not have love in my heart towards God and towards my fellow human, then I am absolutely nothing." (1Corinthians 13:1-3) (rephrased)

‎Please take sometime out today and give someone, anyone a big hug, tell them that Jesus loves them soo much

‎"LOVE" is the greatest gift!
‎
PRAYER: ‎
Everlasting Father, take away my heart of stone, teach me to love you with all my heart, with all my mind, and with all my strength, and teach me to love my neighbour as myself, I ask in Jesus Holy name‎
Amen
‎
‎"If ye love me, keep my commandments"

19/02/2016
ANOTHER HELPER
‎‎
It's not easy to obey the commandments of God at all times; this is not because we don't want to genuinely follow God, but because we do not have the ability to overcome sin on our own. ‎
To overcome, We need the comforter that Jesus has asked the Father to give to us.‎
‎
Spcripture: "And I will pray the father, and He shall give you another comforter, that He may abide with you forever ‎"(John 14:16)
‎
This comforter is the Holy spirit.‎
‎
He is Holy and will keep you from all unholiness.‎
He is your reliable partner that will help you to better understand the things of God and help you to overcome sin, teaching you how to Love and please God as "you study the bible and pray often".
‎
‎Loving God is tantamount to obeying his word and keeping his commandments.
‎
PRAYER: ‎
Everlasting Father, creator of the heavens and the earth, and all things therein, thank you for the gift of life and hope in you.‎
Lord, please pour out your Holy spirit upon me ‎today as I pray, teach me your ways and let the desire of You oh Holy God fill my heart always.
Give me a strong desire for you‎r word, and help me to be constant in prayer so that your WILL be made manifest in my life, in Jesus Holy name I pray
Thank you Lord for my answered prayers‎
Amen.‎
‎
‎
‎"If ye love me, keep my commandments"

NEVER LATE
‎
The early bird they say catches the worm.
‎
The saying is so because earthworms are mostly found early in the morning when the heat of the sun isn't intense, and the bird(s) that rise early are usually the ones to enjoy the feast. ‎
‎
With God it's a bit different, it's not too late to start your day with Jesus, so let's stop for a minute and fellowship today

Scripture: "For the Kingdom of Heaven is like the landowner who went out early one morning to hire workers for his vineyard at an agreed wage.
He got some workers at nine o’clock, ‎another set at 3pm, 6pm, 9pm, and a last set at 11pm, hiring them, telling them he would pay them a days wage at the end of the day. 
‎
So they went to work in the vineyard and at the end of the day, each received a full day’s wage starting from the last hired. .. and said to all of them‎

‘Friend, I haven't been unfair! As I agreed to pay to all my workers the usual wage for a days hire? ‎
“So those who are last now will be first then, and those who are first will be last.”‎ (Matthew 20:1-16) (summarised)
‎
PRAYER: Father I thank you for this special time you have created for You and I to fellowship together, 
I'm grateful oh Lord.‎
Help me daily to keep fellowship with you in Jesus Holy name I pray‎
Amen‎
‎

17/02/2016
REST
‎
‎There is a type of Joy that God wants us to experience in our lives.
It's a Joy that fills your belly and satisfies your heart.
This Joy comes with peace and Love in your heart, it leaves you with a desire to share your experience with another person.
‎
The bible refers to it as the "Fullness of Joy", ‎
‎
This type of Joy comes only from the presence of God and the right hand of the Father.‎
‎
When you surrender all your life to Jesus, he reveals his salvation to you, with an experience of peace, REST and a fullness of Joy in your soul.‎
‎
Scripture: "Come unto me all you that are tired of carrying the heavy loads of life and I will give you rest." ‎
(please read Matthew 11: 28-30)‎
‎
PRAYER: Come into my heart Lord Jesus,
please give peace to my situation
Amen‎
‎

As you surrender to Jesus Christ this day, may you receive REST on every side and in all your challenges and endeavours in Jesus Holy name 
Amen ‎

16/02/2016
WCW
‎
Stands for World Championship Wrestling, and whether you believe this or not,.. ‎there is a non stop wrestling for your soul.‎
You may say that this battle is between God and the devil‎ right?
Wrong!!

If you must know, this battle is actually between YOU and the Devil.
‎
You see, Jesus Christ already defeated the Devil on the cross of calvary once and for all, and has obtained victory forever.‎
‎
So the battle for your soul is YOURs‎ to
"...wrestle, not against flesh and blood, but against the devil and all his evil spirits by Putting on every piece of the armour of God which is..  
- Truth, ‎
- Righteousness, 
- Evangelism [you too can preach]‎
- Faith [putting great trust in Jesus], 
- Salvation [Surrender your life to Jesus], 
- Bible study‎ ‎[to learn about God and His Son Jesus preparing you to be like Him], 
- Prayer [pray persistently at all times]‎"
(Ephesians6:12-18) rephrased.‎
‎
Be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power.
‎
Win or lose, it's your Choice.‎
‎
PRAYER‎
Almighty God, I surrender my entire life to you in Jesus Holy name.
Hear my cry, O Lord and Change my heart.
Teach me your way and increase my desire for you daily through your Word.
Please have mercy on me and help change my desires to please you Lord I ask in Jesus Holy name ‎
Amen 
‎
‎
If you believe, you will see the Salvation of God

THE GOOD SEED
‎
Seed posses in itself the power to bring forth a multiple fold of itself. ‎
If you sow a good seed, it will yield to you good fruits in the harvest, while if you sow a miserable seed, you will yield miserable fruits in the harvest.

"I Jehovah, search the mind, I try the heart, even to give everyman according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doing" (Jeremiah 17:10)
‎
If God decides this day to reward you according to your doings and the secret intent of your heart, what will that reward be? 
As we become christians, we need to constantly review the quality of our seed that we may not come to damnation at the Judgement of God. 
‎
 Whatsoever type of information that you feed your heart and mind with, the same will it yield either to eternal life or eternal damnation.‎

 PRAYER‎
Change my heart O Lord, please forgive my sins. 
Come into my heart today oh Lord and help change my desires to please you.‎
Help me to keep a sound heart and mind in Jesus Holy name ‎
Amen 
‎

Read the bible, its good seed‎

14/02/2016
SINGLE EYE
‎
Faithfulness puts the heart of a lover to rest...‎
When we say faithfulness, we refer to faithfulness in heart, mind and body.
‎
Most people believe that unfaithfulness is until you cheat on your partner sexually, but I tell you that once you allow the attention of another occupy your mind, then you have began to cheat (sin) (Matt 5:28)‎
‎
"A little yeast (a slight inclination to error) leavens the whole lump (will pervert the heart)." (Gal 5:9)‎
Therefore, gaurd your heart diligently.‎
‎
  As we celebrate today, let us also celebrate Faithfulness and Holiness, for our God is a Faithful and Holy God, but above all things, our God is Love.
‎If in your celebration, these attributes are missing, then you may just be celebrating sin which God Hates.
‎
Jesus Loves you and does not  wish you to offend God anymore, and the power to overcome sin is in surrendering your life to Jesus today.
*God bless you as you do.
‎
PRAYER‎
Lord Jesus, I acknowledge my sins and I beg for your forgiveness today.
Come into my heart today oh Lord as my Lord and personal saviour.
I surrender my heart and life to you Lord JESUS.
Let your love fill my life and let your pure Love flow tru me from henceforth in‎ Jesus Holy name I pray
Amen
‎
‎
Know Jesus Know peace
No Jesus No peace

BIBLE YEAR
‎
As that New Year’s excitement begins to fade, are you losing traction on some of the healthy habits you started this year? ‎‎
‎
 Easter is on the way, bringing with it another chance for renewal. Christians all over the world observe the 40 days leading up to our remembrance of Jesus’ resurrection as a time to reflect, repent, and prepare our hearts to celebrate new life. 
‎
Consider making the Bible an intentional part of your day, every day, between now and Easter Sunday.
Build the bible study habit.

‎Scripture: "Gather unto me all who have made a covenant with me by sacrifice." (Psalm 50:5)
‎
PRAYER
Father, thank you for this new day. 
May your grace and mercy and truth never depart from me.
May my heart be constantly in your presence‎ in Jesus Holy name I pray
Amen


Good morning Lord Jesus

REPRESENT
   ‎
To represent means to be entitled to act or speak in the capacity ‎of a person. 
‎
 Now that we are ambassadors (representatives) for Christ, "give no offence in anything, that the ministry be not blamed." 
(2 corinthians 5:20 and 6:3)
‎
"Be ye not un equally yoked (or team up) with un believer: for what‎ has a righteousness partner with wickedness? 
How can light live with darkness?
What harmony can there be between Christ and the Devil" (2 Corinthians 6:14,15)
‎
Beloved, If that friendship or relationship causes you to sin, CUT IT OFF!!.‎
Don't be afraid of doing that, and God will bring you into a better situation, for God needs his children to be obedient and without excuse.‎
‎
Would you carry hot coals of fire on your lap and not expect to be burned‎‎?‎
‎
What is your excuse?‎
‎
  Let us come boldly to God, that we may receive mercy and strength to remain steadfast in the hope of our salvation.
‎
PRAYER
Lord Jesus, I need you now more than ever, give me the strength and will power to be obedient to your instructions.
Forgive me in every way that I have disobeyed ‎you O Lord my God.
Wash me in the blood of Jesus Christ and deliver me from myself and every circle of un righteousness in my life, I pray in Jesus Holy name‎
Amen‎

11/02/2016
AN ADVOCATE ‎
   
 "My dear Children, I write this unto you, that ye sin not. But if anybody does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: and he is the propitiation for our sins: and not ours only but for the sins of the whole world." (1John 2:1‎,2)
‎
   In our efforts to be blameless before God, we may slip at times, but don't be dismayed because God is always by you to help you to get back on track if you ask for mercy.

However, "anyone that claims to know God (or calls himself a Christian) ‎and keeps not the commandments of God, is a lair, (is not really a Christian) and the truth is not in him." (1John 2:4). 
‎
In addition,‎"Anyone who hates a brother or sister is in darkness and walks in darkness" (1John 2:9)
‎
What is your story? ‎
What is your excuse?‎
Can you sincerely call yourself a Christian? ‎
‎
  Come out of this self deceit today and come to the light. Accept the truth that will prevent your soul from falling.
  Let us come boldly to God, that we may receive mercy and strength to remain steadfast in the hope of our salvation.
‎
PRAYER
Lord Jesus,.. Lord Jesus,.. Lord Jesus.
  Have mercy on me and my neighbours, my friends and my family that have blinded been by our ignorance of your Word.
Save us this day O God by the saving power in the precious blood of Jesus Christ.
Let your light shine through me and through us, and let your truth be constantly revealed to us that we may walk correctly with you O God in Jesus Holy name 
Amen‎
‎

Whenever in doubt,... Pray..

10/02/2016
OUR FATHER ‎
   
 Do you know that our God created the heavens and the earth, and set all things in perfect order?
Everything was in so much order that God confessed that "it was all good".
  
  When sin came, Everything went bad and we lost our place with God in paradise. 
 To help us, recover our place, ‎God sent his son Jesus to save mankind, but the key to the salvation of God lies with you.‎
‎
"If you do not forgive people, God cannot and will not forgive you."‎
‎
Don't be deceived!
If you are kind to people, if you fast, and pray and even perform great miracles in the name of Jesus, you are really wasting your hope of salvation if you cannot forgive.
‎
‎‎‎‎Scripture:   "..Forgive us our trespasses even as we forgive‎ others who trespass against us; 
For if you forgive people their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: but if you do not forgive, God will not forgive you" ‎
(Matthew 6:12,14,15)‎
‎
PRAYER‎
Our ‎Father, in heaven, Holy is your name. 
Thy kingdom come in my life, Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven. 
Father, please change my heart from a heart of stone and replace it with a tender forgiving heart. 
Fill my heart with your Holy spirit Lord and please forgive me my sins and help me to forgive others in Jesus Holy name I pray‎
Amen
‎
‎
Trespass means: to offend or to sin‎

NOW THAT YOU ARE SAVED‎
‎ ‎
   Having taken a decision to live a new life in Christ Jesus, let us walk worthy of the calling we have received, let go of all forms of the former character, and become a new person.
‎
You can't make this change on your own, you need the Holy spirit of God to assist you and make it easy.‎
 
Scripture:‎ "Come onto me all you who are weary and are burdened, and I will give you rest. 
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me (study the bible)‎ for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find the rest you need for your soul" (Matthew 11: 28-29)
‎
  Continue this change by daily taking physical notes of your faults and committing it to God.
‎
PRAYER‎
‎Father, thank you for saving me through the sacrifice of your Son Jesus Christ.
I surrender my person to you Lord, and I ask that you fill my heart with your Holy spirit.
Help me Lord to overcome sin so that I can serve as a living witness of your salvation in Jesus Holy name I pray,
Thank you Father for prayers answered
Amen‎
   

Make a conscious effort to improve yourself.

THAT DESIRE TO BE FREE
‎ ‎
   Dear friend, this may sound awkward, but... have you ever got up to do or say a thing, and just as you set about doing it or saying it, you forget exactly what you wanted to do or say?.. and because you forgot, you went to do another thing until you were able to remember what you initially set about to do or say?
‎
It's a awkward feeling isn't it?
‎
   Many people reading this message have given their life to Jesus, at sometime in their life, but somehow have forgotten the reason they did so, and have gone back to living in life of sin.
‎
"When we forget our purpose, we return back to our initial state.‎"
‎
Scripture: "Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived : neither fornicators, nor idolaters nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor drunkards, nor gossipers, nor extortioners and robbers will shall inherit the kingdom of God. (1Corinthians 6: 9,10)
‎
When we forget that we gave our lives to Jesus because we needed to make Heaven, we will go back to doing the previous things we rejected, and we head back to sin and become Hell bound again.‎
‎
If you wish to come back to the pathway of Heaven, you need to stop all you are doing and repent.
‎
PRAYER‎
   O God, forgive me for I have sinned, I have forgotten my purpose.‎
    Lord Jesus, I come to you today, please wash away my sins with your blood that washes whiter than snow, and please reconcile me back to yourself.
     Wipe my name from the book of death and Hell and please write my name in the book of life.
I'm so sorry Lord, please give me the grace always to be Heaven conscious, cos I really cannot afford to go to Hell‎.
Help me Lord in Jesus Holy name I pray
Amen‎


Read your bible, pray  often

EXTRA OIL
‎ ‎
  The kingdom of heaven can be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
5 wise ladies and 5 foolish ones.

The foolish ones took no extra oil, while the wise ones carried extra oil for their lamps waiting for the bridegroom who was late in arriving. 
(Mathew 25:1-12) ‎
When you read up the rest of the story, you will discover that the 5 foolish ladies weren't prepared, and missed the occasion.‎

Most people desire to be blessed in different areas of their life, but very few prepare themselves for the blessing.
Do You need a husband/wife, a job, a good result, a promotion, a new house, a better relationship with Jesus, a miracle etc?
‎
You need to prepare yourself in advance, 
1. learn more about the task ahead, ‎
2. plan and work towards it, ‎
3. support your preparation with the Extra oil‎ of‎ prayer and the Word of God (the Bible) which will make you stand out for favour.‎

I pray that you will also be prepared when Jesus Christ returns for the rapture of his saints.
‎
PRAYER
Father  please pour upon me the spirit of wisdom and diligence that I may be able to follow all duties I plan to undertake without foolishness.
Forgive my sins Oh Lord and wash me in the blood of your son Jesus Christ I pray ‎in the Holy name of Jesus‎
Amen‎

Seek ye first the kingdom and righteousness of God...

OUR DESIRE
‎ ‎
‎Most times, we find it hard to make a difference between our "Wants" and our "Needs".  We pay so much to satisfy our wants that we end up without enough to acquire our needs.
‎
Unfortunately, our "Wants" is an endless list which can never be satisfied, but our "needs" are limited and can be satisfied if we can identify and prioritise  them. 
‎
This is wisdom: When we properly identify our "Needs", we will have sufficience to satisfy our "Wants"‎
‎
‎Scripture:  "And don't be concerned about what to eat and what to drink. Don't worry about such things. These things dominate the thoughts of un believers all over the world, but your Father already knows your needs.
Seek the kingdom of God above all else, and He will give you everything you need. (Luke 12:29-31)
‎
Put your name in the gap and confess this prayer:‎
PRAYER:
I ______ needs a relationship with Jesus above all else, and God will bless me ______ and make me _______ a blessing.
‎Lord Jesus Christ, please pour your spirit upon me ______ and fill my heart with a greater desire for your kingdom in Jesus Holy name I pray
Amen

God bless you

FELLOWSHIP‎ 
‎
Let's open our bibles to 2James 4:8 and we will discover a secret,... that this book doesn't exist.
‎
- How often do you read your bible?
- How often do you pray?‎
- Do you have a personal relationship with Jesus?
‎- What is the opinion of people about you?
‎
Scripture: "when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them that they had been with Jesus" (Acts 4:13)‎
‎
- Does your life show that you have a relationship with Jesus?‎‎
If all your answers aren't so good, then you need to improve on it

   Just Like the face of Moses shone so bright that the people of Israel couldn't look at his face, because he spent a lot of time with God, when you spend more time with God, His glory and likeness will reflect on you, and your desire to commit sin will gradually end, His Love will fill your heart and you will overcome in all things.

PRAYER
O Lord, please increase my desire to fellowship with you daily.
Let your spirit dwell in me oh God.
Please have mercy upon me in Jesus Holy name
Amen‎
