WHAT HAPPENS AFTER RAPTURE: THE GREAT TRIBULATION

Do you realize we are in the very end time and this world will soon come to an end? As the Biblical prophesies of the end time are fulfilling right in our eyes and the love of many are becoming cold by the cares and deceptions of the world; the next event we are waiting for is the Rapture, which is the catching away of the saints. As Jesus Christ said, “I tell you, in that night there will be two men in one bed: the one will be taken and the other will be left. 35 Two women will be grinding together: the one will be taken and the other left. 36 Two men will be in the field: the one will be taken and the other left.” Luke 17:34, 35. This event may happen any moment from now.

The big questions are: What happens after the Rapture? What will happen to the unbelievers and careless Christians who miss the Rapture? The Great Tribulation! While the raptured saints will be celebrating the Marriage of the Lord’s Supper with Jesus Christ, and receive rewards over there, the Left-behinds will be suffering Great Tribulation here on earth with Satan. It will be a terrific period of pain and panic that has never existed before. “For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. “Matthew 24:20-22

The Great Tribulation will start by the reign of Anti-Christ, a satanic powered personality who will rule the whole world with his evil mark of the beast, 666. “He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” Revelation 13:16, 17. Those who refuse the mark will be tormented to death, it will be a horrible period which will be hard to resist, but those who make their stands for Jesus and refuse the mark will make it to heaven after their death. Rev. 7:9, 14. The people that receive the mark will automatically become the enemies of God, they will be given temporal freedom to buy and sell but they are doomed forever.

The better questions to ask are: when will you surrender your life to Jesus? When will you totally rededicate your life to Jesus and settle EVERYTHING with Him? When will you make your way right with God and stand for righteousness in the midst of this unrighteous generation? The answer should be NOW, or never! If you have not genuinely accepted Jesus into your life by becoming a new creature and living above sin, if you are a worldly, careless or modern Christian, if you are afraid or not certain about your eternity, this moment is a greatest time for you to settle everything with Jesus NOW! You are the luckiest person if you are reading this message before the rapture; it means you are still alive; the deaths have no such opportunity, because after death is the judgment. You can’t wait for the Great tribulation, you may die before then, you may not survive it, now is the best and certain time to settle your eternity with God.

You are a Christian? But are you living in line with God's word or in line with the words of modern pastors? Have you settled all and made everything clear before God or there are still some no-go-areas in your life? Any unconfessed sin or unsettled restitution? Any worldliness or compromise? Those Christians who leave some aspects of their live behind unsettled will be left behind on the rapture day.

Your greatest privilege of being alive today is not to make more money but to make your way right with God for genuine salvation of your soul. So what are you waiting for? Repent, rededicate your life to Jesus, restore, recommit, and renew your relationship with the Savior, and be sure of your life after here before it is too late!

Blow 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 is coming,
For it is at hand:
2 A day of darkness and gloominess,
A day of clouds and thick darkness,
Like the morning clouds spread over the mountains.
A people come, great and strong,
The like of whom has never been;
Nor will there ever be any such after them,
Even for many successive generations………
“Now, therefore,” says the LORD,
“Turn to Me with all your heart,
With fasting, with weeping, and with mourning.”
13 So rend your heart, and not your garments;
Return to the LORD your God,
For He is gracious and merciful. . .
Joel 2:1-2, 12, 13.

IS MouthAction/ ANAL SEX OKAY IN CHRISTIAN MARRIAGE?

MouthAction - Sexual activity in which the genitals of one partner are stimulated by the mouth of the other.

If we should ask this in a better or clearer way, the question will be, "Is it okay for Christians to have oral in marriage?" Since sex is meant to be done or experienced in marriage, that is after legal marriage. We do hear that married couple can do anything with each other after marriage, as long it's within their matrimonial home, so is MouthAction okay for us as children of God?

The answer is sex is fine and blessed in marriage but the oral of it is wrong and evil. Why? Because sex is meant for sexual activity by sex organs, and oral is meant for oral activities by oral organs; when you now exchange it, using oral organs for sexual activity and using sexual organs for oral, it means you are directly working against the natural order and creation of God. MouthAction is evil passion of working against the order of God, it's a deliberate turning the cause of nature upside down. Such habit exposes lives and marriages to demons, delusive pleasure and destruction at the end.

ANAL SEX - Sexual activity involving penetration of the anus.
When you drive your car to Filling station, you want to fuel your car. What will you do? You open your car’s tank cover and expect the pump nozzle to be put through your fuel tank, right? But what if the Fuel station attendant put the gas nozzle through your car’s exhaust pipe? That could be seen as madness and a dangerous act. And that exactly what anal sex is – madness and dangerous act, it’s not just a sin but an abomination.


MouthAction and anal sex were originated by Satan for people to dishonor the cause of God and to dishonor their bodies. "Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves" Romans 1:24. Oral or anal sex is of same category of sin with homosexuality, which are the gays and lesbians. In reality, MouthAction, anal sex and homosexual are the same before God, who work against the natural cause. "Who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men." Romans 1:25-27

if you have been involving in MouthAction, anal sex or homosexuality, you urgently need to repent and ask the Lord to forgive and purge you with His precious blood.

1 John 1:9-10, "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us."

You need to surrender your life to Jesus now and experience genuine salvation without any further delay so that you will not be among the miserable that will miss the rapture.

DEFILING CLOTHING
"Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and was standing before the Angel." Zechariah 3:3

Devil has strategized several means to defile Christians and disqualify them from making the rapture and heaven at last, and so many Christians are falling into these traps. One of the defiling traps is defiling dress by many acclaimed Christian women, including ministers.

Defiling Dress:
(1) Uncovered - Any top that shows the trace of your breasts. As a woman, if you wear blouse, shirt, or top, it may be a local made or foreign made, it may be traditional style or Western style; if the dress does not cover your chest properly, that is, if a little trace of your beasts is shown when you bend down, it means you are gorgeously wearing defiling clothing. You don't need to wear a turtledove top, but you must wear clothing that properly and perfectly cover your breasts even when you bend down.

Majority of Christian women wear top that stylishly show their breasts, because Satan has successfully polluted fashion world and the minds of the tailors so that about 90% of women's tops are defiled. Today, those dresses do not seem wrong again, because every Christian woman wears it, including pastors wives. But the question you should ask yourself is: why will you wear clothes that will show your beasts as a woman? What is your motive? Showing your private part to the world is not only a sin but a serious defilement. Any top that cannot cover your chest properly if you bend down is a defiled clothes, and those who wear it are defiled, unknowingly.

(2) Tight. Any dress you wear that is tight on you, either top or skirt, which shows the shape of your body is a defiling clothes. Showing the anatomy of your body is a modern way of giving people the idea of your unclothedness, and it is not part of holiness in Christ. Those who wear tight clothing are unwittingly entrapped by Satan. Many will later discover this after they die or after the rapture, but it will be too late. You need not to wear a baggy dress, but it must be free on you without any inconveniences, or conveying your body shape.

(3) Transparent. Wearing a dress that is transparent is not only sinful but naturally silly. The biblical and philosophic purpose of wearing clothes is to cover unclothedness, so if after you wear clothes, your body is still revealed, it is nothing but spiritual and moral indecency, and defilement to the soul. A Christian woman who wears clothes in a way that her underwear is revealed is not a good example of a godly and chaste woman.

(4) Short. Wearing armless top, mini skirts or gowns which do not properly cover you kneels are defilement to your Spiritual life.

Urgent repentance is very important, and then to do away which such defiled dresses and clothing immediately. You may be a matured, or old Christian woman, you may be a minister or women leader; like Joshua, he was a leader but he unknowingly wearing filthy garment. This ministry has the mandate to reveal the truth as guided through the Word of God and the Spirit of God; it is your responsibility to accept or reject it, but I pray for everyone reading this that the Lord will open your spiritual eyes and give you understanding for the truth and to be fruitful there in.

John 8:32, "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”

...I had an accident in which I died. As death came over me, I felt everything become dark. I found myself walking through a dark tunnel, and some kind of being was taking me. While we walked in this cold and dark tunnel, I began to hear horrific screams and moans, and an intense fear was growing inside of me. I knew that, although my body was already dead, I was somehow still alive in this place.

I saw large snakes moving all around, and all the people were crying out for water. Soon we arrived at an open plateau, which had many chambers and divisions, each contained different people inside. I began to cry out with terror, begging God for mercy. "Lord, remember my life! Have mercy!" Sheer terror was gripping my soul, and my whole life was passing before my eyes. As we approached some door, I shouted again, "Have mercy on me my Lord; have mercy on me! I beg you to help me! Help me Lord!!"

We then went to a place where I saw a woman was sitting in a rocking chair. There were still terrifying moans coming from all over that place. At first, she seemed ok, but then her body transformed into a witch, and she screamed in agony, burning in flames. She begged for mercy, but the Lord said to me "The wages of sin is death, and those who arrive in this place will never get out again." (Romans 6:23)

The Lord showed me many disobedient people, many who were once part of a Christian Church. They were crying out and begging for mercy, but there was no mercy. Mercy could only be found while a person is still alive on Earth. Once people are dead, mercy cannot be reached anymore, as it says, "it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment” (Hebrews 9:27)

Jesus also showed me a place with some kind of boiling oil, and there were people suffering inside, burning in flames and trying to get out. But demons would throw them back in.

We walked until we came to a place with people that had once listened to the word of God, but never wanted to repent.

I also saw a missionary in Hell. He was there because he asked for money to open a mission in Africa, but he kept half the money for himself. Now he begs for mercy and another chance to return the money that wasn’t his. When he saw that Jesus could not help him, he cursed Jesus.

I saw people that were once inside the church praising God. Now they only cry out for mercy for their un-repented sins, they lost their chance to repent after they died. I saw pastors there who robbed tithes and offerings from their churches. They also begged to undo all their bad works, but there was no more chance.

Those who die without Jesus Christ go to hell, and those who die with Jesus Christ go to Heaven. Many people believe that dying is just stopping this existence. (Annihilationism) But at death, your real life begins, either in God’s Glory or in everlasting condemnation and shame. (Daniel 12:2) You are making that choice right now. We must all carefully meditate on where we will spend eternity. Do you want to spend eternity in Hell or in God’s glory? It’s your choice.

The Road to Hell
The Lord said, "Look at this wide street." I saw a street where a multitude of believers were walking, and they were even carrying bibles. I saw some praying and others were singing praises.
Many Christians have some hatred or bitterness in their heart toward their brothers; and may even skip church because of that brother. But when the pastor asks the church, “How many of you love the Lord?” They say "Amen!" But the Bible says that those who hate their brothers are like murders, and no murder can come in the Kingdom of Heaven. It is written, anyone who is angry with his brother will be subject to judgment. Again, anyone who says to his brother, 'Raca,' is answerable to the Sanhedrin. But anyone who says, 'You fool!' will be in danger of the fire of hell. (Matt 5:22) These brothers will deeply regret that when the Lord returns.

The Bible tells us, Do not hate your brother in your heart. Rebuke your neighbor frankly so you will not share in his guilt. Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against one of your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the LORD. (Leviticus 19:17-18) It’s so sad when those serve the Lord, don't make it into Heaven. You need to seriously meditate on this and ask, “Am I ready for the Lord? Am I really doing the will of God? Is my life pleasing to God?” You still have time to turn your heart to God and escape Hell.

Some people don’t care about where they are going, they only want to enjoy this life. But I tell you, spending time with Jesus, not some woman is enjoying life. Spending time in the Lord's house, not a bar, that’s life. We need to ask God for Mercy for those who are still waking on the road of death and sin.

In Hell, we saw many who thought they were living holy while on Earth, but now they were just begging for mercy and another chance. My soul ached so much for them. We saw a woman who was acting like she was reading the Word of God, and preaching about John 3:16. She said: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Jesus said she was there "Because she could never forgive her husband; she never managed to forgive her husband." (Matt 6:14-15) This woman had been shepherding an evangelical church for 35 years, but now in Hell, she is begging for one more chance to forgive her husband.

The bible warns us, settle matters quickly with your adversary who is taking you to court. Do it while you are still with him on the way, or he may hand you over to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into prison. (Matt. 5:25) and Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. (Matt. 5:7)
Forgiveness is something special, and that woman never forgave. After 35 years of hard work for God, she lost it all in the end. Meditate on this, and make sure you forgive all. How do you want to spend eternity?

Lying to God
It might sound crazy, but many Christians wind up in Hell because of lying. Christians often just nonchalantly lie in Church, and think nothing of it. The pastor may ask them a question, and a member just lies to them. But we must remember that a simple lie is what caused God to kill Ananias and Sapphira while in Church. (Acts 5:3-10)

If you're a lukewarm Christian, backsliding, or living a double life, bow you head right now before God, and beg for forgiveness, be willing to turn away from evil deeds. If you don't know Jesus, pray now, and ask Him for forgiveness, ask Him into your heart, accept Him as your savior.

Many of us stand before the altar of God full of pride and vainglory. Many, who sing praises to God, begin to be full of pride. Many of God's servants who preach the word, and are used mightily by God, begin to think that they are overly important? Many people who work in deliverance also get full of pride? I want to tell you that God see all, and knows your heart.

We continued walking until we arrived at some a kind of waiting room. We saw a demon that was shouting, and other demons were presenting themselves before him. Two of them were in the form of beautiful women. Their job was to destroy ministries, and lead ministers into sin. Those who serve the Lord, must be careful of satan’s traps. satan wants to destroy your life, and he can use those people who are close to you, those who do not walk close to Jesus. They can be instruments of satan.

Satan also has demons that are disguised as men. They go into churches in search for young ladies and even married women, to lead them into sin, destroying marriages and lives.

Children in Hell
Even today, I still feel pain and terror in my soul when I remember that there are even young children in Hell. I saw some between the ages of 12 and 14 years old. They also regret many things they did while on earth. Many Christians ignorantly say that children can never be lost, because they are so young. But I tell you, if a child can distinguish between good and evil, and they are not walking in the ways of the Lord, they also can arrive in that place of torment. (Prov. 22:6)

In the bible it says "I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books.” (Rev. 20:12) All persons that can comprehend between good and evil will have to stand before the Lord; nothing is hidden from the eyes of the Lord.

We continued walking until we came to a place that was similar to stadium. There were demons there laughing at lost souls. They were mocking them, and tormenting those who were made in God's image.

The people there desperately thirst for water, but there is none. They regret even the day they were born. But the worst feeling is for those who knew Jesus, but then walked away from Him. If you have walked away from Jesus, if you no longer follow His ways, today is the day to come back! Don't be ashamed of what your friends or anyone else may say.

You must know that just because you claim to be a Christian, you can still be unclean before God, if you keep sinning. I was personally being used by God, but still had vainglory in my heart. (Matt 7:21-23) There is still time to repent and renew your heart and mind.

If you're a lukewarm Christian, backsliding, or living a double life, bow you head right now before God, and beg for forgiveness, be willing to turn away from evil deeds. If you don't know Jesus, pray now, and ask Him for forgiveness, ask Him into your heart, accept Him as your Lord.

It is time for you to run to the presence of God; and look for salvation. Do not look for a church that makes you feel good; look for a church where the Spirit of the Lord moves and repent of all your sins! It is time for deep repentance; time to cry out to the Lord and run to Jesus. If you have sins that you haven't stopped, your soul is in DANGER, because the Bible says that Jesus will come as a thief in the night, (1 Thess. 5:2) Are you ready or not?
By Carmelo Brenes
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear reader, why will you go to hell because of the pursuit of this world? Because of the pressure of this world? Because of position of this world? Because of popularity, ego, fame or possession of this world? Do you want to play so stupid, and be fooled by Satan that you will live how many years on earth and spend more than 1 billion years in torment of demons forever? You don't want to face the shame of men but you are ready to face the shame of demons? You don't want human or temporal pain but you are ready to suffer demonic and eternal pain? Because of money?

What will you gain in this life that you will loose your soul forever and ever, and never to see light, never to know joy, peace; ever thirsty and never get a drop of water, urine or sweat to drink? And you want to be that stupid because of this present passing world? WHAT WILL JUSTIFY YOUR GOING TO HELL? YOU URGENTLY NEED TO TOTALLY SURRENDER ALL TO JESUS NOW BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!

Dear Christian, you have the knowledge of God, but where are you standing? You are a Christian and sinner at the same time, you are God fearing and ungodly at the same time, you are up and down, falling and rising at the same time, hot and cold Christian and worldly. You think those things do not matter? Satan may be telling you to bother less about your eternity, that "It is by God's mercy, so till then" Don't you know that you need to settle and surrender all now? You want to cover the sin, postpone the restitution, keeping doing those things because your pastor does not against it? You don't want to face the shame? You need to be wise and surrender before Satan will waste your soul in hell after all your knowledge and serving God!

Beloved, you have experienced salvation and serving God, but that little stain of unconfessed sin, unforgiveness, hatred, the care of this world; that little lie, anger, etc will you allow such to take you to hell after all your spiritual experiences and service to God? Will you be that fool?

Let's settle all now before it is too late. People are dying every day without notice, Some people were on Facebook last month, read our messages, but rejected, postponed and died. Now, no single second for a second chance. Will you allow that to happen to you? Rapture can happen any second from now and what will be your portion? Why now settle everything now?

BECAUSE I BELONG TO A ROYAL PRIESTHOOD
I got to ATM center to withdraw money; it was a long queue which I joined for about 1 hour. When it remained few people in front of me, a lady who came and queued behind came up and said she was there before me and she MUST use the ATM before me, I told, “I know when you came here” She said no, and nothing I could do. I felt like, “am I going to be fighting with her if she insists?” NO, God forbid. Then another lady behind her said after her she would be the next, “But I was here for almost one hour and both of you met me here”

But I had to allow them, you know why? Because I belong to a royal priesthood, a special people, a chosen generation! I better go home without using the ATM than to rubbish my royal priesthood. You can’t see a royal family fighting at the ATM queue; you can’t see a special person fighting on the street, at work or in school, no nooooooo.

I was traveling out of country with my wife and kids, and at the checking in the airport, the custom officers demanded bribe before they would pass our luggage due to some items we carried in the luggage. I told him, “I am sorry, I can’t give your demands, it’s forbidden by my faith” He was like “Why?” I explained to him, but he couldn't understand. I told him, I better let go of the items or call somebody from home to come and take them back than for me to give bribe. Because I am a ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, it’s an abomination for a member of a royal priesthood of God – for that matter - to give or take bride, come what may, by God’s grace.

Last year, I traveled to another African country for a business trip; I was delayed there for some days because my flight was postponed. I felt lonely being the first time I would travel far away from my wife and kids. But I could not mess around or go to ungodly place to relax. Because I belong to a ROYAL PRIESTHOOD, a special people, a holy nation, a chosen generation. A member of God’s royal priesthood does not mess around, does not cheat on her/his spouse, does not go to have fun in the company of the ungodly, a chosen generation does not go to club, comedy place or secular cinema.

You know what the Bible says?
“But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.” 1 Peter 2:9

This Bible verse is not just by claiming or quoting, but by living.

M A S T U R B A T I O N ?
Masturbation is a private and personal act of manipulating one's body for sexual pleasure (aka touching yourself). It is forbidden by every genuine child of God, because our body is the temple of God and we cannot manipulate it.

Some Christians get confuse if what they do privately sometimes is actually masturbation, to clarify that, anything you do personally and privately to your body to derive sexual pleasure is masturbation. It may be pressing one's private parts, using tools, toils or watching nuke picture, sexual movies or reading romantic novel till one experiences orgasm. all these are activities of masturbation. Either before marriage or after marriage, the sin of masturbation remains the same.

Masturbation actually means having sex with demon; since it is for sexual pleasure and it usually involves two people; in masturbation, the other person is invisible and that is demon.

How To Be Free
SURRENDER ALL
The only solution to the sin and bondage of masturbation is to surrender all your life to Jesus Christ. Do not isolate sin of masturbation, but all sins you must surrender, confess and forsake. If you give God 90% of your life, the devil will have access to the 10% and pollute the 90% you give to God. Until you surrender all, every sin and unrighteousness in your life, you will keep rising and falling.

DISCONNECT
Masturbation, like every other sin, is linked to a sinful activities or motive. Immoral movies, music, magazine, motive, novels, etc. all these generate immoral action of masturbation. You must immediately destroy such materials and disconnect your mind from such immoral thoughts and stuffs. You must also disconnect your mind from memory of sinful past.

SANCTIFY YOUR HEART WITH GOD’S WORD
The Word of God purifies, and so you must read and mediate your Bible every morning and evening, at least 2 chapters a day. When you fill your heart with God’s word, sinful nature will naturally die.

PRAY
Daily ask for God’s help, grace and strength. Pray and plead the Blood of Jesus on your heart daily as you grow stronger in the Lord.

RESIST.
Here is the secret: Behind every sin is a demon, and these demons are the forces behind the pressure of sin on people’s heart. Now when the pressure of a particular sin comes, that is the demon’s pressure on your soul, the pressure will come on you as if you must just do it again, as if you can’t survive without doing it. These demons will bring the pressure of sin so strong, but for few minutes God allow them, if you resist the devil in those few minutes and refuse to give in, you will see the pressure faking away.

So when next the pressure of sin comes so high on you, just relax and resist the demon in the name of Jesus Christ, and in few minutes, the demon will flee. Now, you need to understand this that the more you resist the devil and refuse to bow to that sin, the more you become stronger the resist the next temptation. Praise the Lord! Amen

WATCH
When you resist the devil and he flees, he will still come back again, that is the reason we must be watchful always. You can resist the devil and he flees from you for months or even years, then he will be waiting for your careless moment, when you are not watchful, when you are careless with old thoughts, pictures, music, movies, or not reading your Bible. That is the reason many keep falling back to their vomits after many months or years of victory.

You must be watchful always. There is no graduation of watchfulness in Christian race, until we get to heaven we must keep on being watchful, “Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall.” 1 Corinthians 10:12. The devil can come back to tempt you anytime, so you must be watchful and keep your eyes, ears, mind, thought under control of Holy Spirit.

“ But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified.” 1 Corinthians 9:27

WHY MANY KEEP RISING AND REVERTING TO SIN AFTER SALVATION.
- What You Need To Do TO avoid Falling Back into sin

Many people desire to serve God and live life of holiness. Many, knowing fully well that the only way to escape eternal destruction and danger of hell is by serving God, but they can’t why it is difficult for them to serve God in genuine salvation without falling back into sin. Many people have tried several times to repent and confess their sins but they can’t understand why they keep confessing and committing the same sins, why they keep reverting back to sinful vomit or why they are only struggling with their Christian life and can’t stay long. Answering altar for salvation many times but can’t resist temptation of sin.

On the other path, some are serving God in a way but they always find themselves back to the old addicted sin that is serving as a stronghold in their Christian life. It could be a sin of masturbation, fornication, adultery, pornographic, anger, etc. and unfortunately many have been discouraged by the devil to abandon their desire to serve God. The devil may tell you, “See, you are not meant for this Christian life, no matter how many times you try, and you are always a failure, you are too weak spiritually for God’s standard, just stop deceiving yourself.” Such thought is from the pit of hell to discourage and destroy you.

The Lord is revealing to you right now why you keep confessing and committing sins, why your Christian life is always forward and backward, why you keep falling back into those sins, and why you have not be able to steadfastly serve God. There are three things you lack all this while and when you understand these 3 things now, your Christian life will never remain the same again, you will experience total deliverance from sins with the peace and strength of God to serve Him for the rest of your life without falling back again. Here are the three things you need:

GENUINE REPENTANCE
Before you can experience genuine salvation and serve God in righteousness, you must first experience genuine repentance – which is the foundation of salvation in Christ. There is difference between repentance and remorsefulness, which is difference between Peter and Judas Iscariot. Genuine repentance is to realize all your sins and ready to forsake them. If you only realize the immediate sins, maybe like masturbation, fornication, and you ignore some other sins, you are not genuinely repenting so there will not be genuine salvation. If you realize all your sins and you are not ready from your heart to forsake those sins, you are not repenting; you are only being remorseful or being sorry for your sins and such will not bring victory over sins. Genuine repentance that guarantee total freedom from sins is to realize all your sins – both small and great, serious ones and simple ones, and ready to forsake them.

This is the first step into total freedom from sin and genuine salvation that guarantee eternal life. Before you confess your sins, before you answer altar call, you must first genuinely repent in this respect so that your confession will not be empty. Confessing sins without genuine repentance of realizing all your sins and readiness to forsake them all is a waste of time. How you keep confessing sins without first repenting from those sins.

The false gospel of this modern day that leads people to altar-call and confession of sins and confession of Jesus Christ as the Savior without first teaching and leading people into genuine repentance is satanic manipulation to give people fake salvation and false hope in Jesus. No matter how many times you confess your sins, no matter how much time you answer altar call or repeat prayer of salvation, without genuine repentance, you will keep confessing and committing the same sins.

“He who covers his sins will not prosper,
But whoever confesses and forsakes them will have mercy.” Proverbs 28:13.

AFTER YOU ARE SAVED
After you genuinely repent, confess your sins and saved from sins, you will need two things to do and keep doing for you to maintain your salvation. It is a bad news that many people are saved but they lose their salvation and fall back to old bondage of sin because they lack the understanding of new life in Jesus Christ. It is possible for you to be saved in the morning and lose the salvation in the evening if you don’t take these two necessary steps. Salvation is conditional, not an unconditional certificate.

Many people do experience genuine salvation but fall back into sin because they fail to take these two steps after they are saved. And the same thing is applicable to falling back into addicted sins.
Failure to do the right things after you are saved will lead you to fall back into sins you have rejected. Let’s look at the Word of God, Matthew 12:43-45:

“When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places, seeking rest, and finds none. 44 Then he says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came.’ And when he comes, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order. 45 Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that man is worse than the first. So shall it also be with this wicked generation.”

This reveals why many people who were genuinely saved usually fall back into sin. Behind every sin is an unclean spirit, and when you genuinely repent and experience salvation, the unclean spirits will go out of your life, including the addicted sins, and your heart will be swept clean and in order, but if you do take the right steps of total separation and devotion after you are saved, some forces of those sins will come back and you will fall back into old sins.

So if you don’t want to keep rising and falling, if you don’t want to keep falling back into the addicted sins, you need SEPARATION and DEVOTION after you genuinely repent from all your sins. Let’s look at them one after another:

SEPARATION
After you have experienced genuine salvation, the first step you will need to take immediately is separation, you must separate yourself from every connection to old sinful life, from things that will not help or support your new life in Jesus Christ such as worldly music, movies, magazine – you will delete or destroy them; you will immediately stop going to places that will not help you spiritually includes worldly churches. You must detach yourself from people that will not help your spiritual life, friendship or relationship. You must destroy every sinful, worldly or cultic material in your possession including all the worldly dresses, clothing, jewelries – you don’t keep them or give to people, but you get rid of them completely and immediately.

After you experience salvation, failure to separate yourself from old sinful and worldly things and people will lead you to fall back into sins. Instead of you to move forward with Christ in new life, those things or people will pull you back into darkness and your old vomit. That is what Apostle Peter says in 2 Peter 2:22, “But it has happened to them according to the true proverb: “A dog returns to his own vomit,” and, “a sow, having washed, to her wallowing in the mire.”

Every Christian journey that will successfully lead to heaven must daily involve separation as a continuous exercise. Separation from worldly, sinful things and people is not only for new convert, it is not only useful for us at our early Christian level but continuously till we get to heaven because when you separate yourself from this sinful or worldly thing today, the devil will introduce another thing tomorrow. That is the reason the Bible warns us to daily search ourselves so as to continue the spiritual exercise of separation. Unfortunately many long-time Christians and Christian ministers are majestically marching straight into eternity without realizing that the devil has implanted some ungodliness, uncleanness or worldliness into their lives, because they fail to exercise daily spiritual checking for separation.

DEVOTION
Salvation in Christ is the beginning of new life as the foundation of our faith, separation is your commitment to settle your new life and devotion is your consecration to God to seal your new life in Christ Jesus. Devotion unto God involves three things:

(i) Daily prayer. To maintain a victorious Christian life, you need a fervent prayer life, praying for God’s sanctification, strength and grace every day; praying for the spiritual understanding and knowledge of God to help you avoid errors. A heavenly minded Christian must spend much of his prayer time on his spiritual life, but the carnal minded Christians pray more about earthly stuff, blessings, provision, and attack against enemies. You must pray morning and evening about your new life in Jesus, let your spiritual life be your priority in your daily prayer, and every other things good will follow. Prayer strengthens us to resist the temptation of sin. Matthew 26:41. “Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”

(ii) Daily Bible Reading. It is a must for you to spend at least 30mins daily to read and meditate the Word of God. Don’t just read, but prayerfully read and meditate, thinking over and over the Bible passages as you read until you understand and take note. The Word of God helps us not to fall back into sin.
Psalm 119:9-11,
“How can a young man cleanse his way?
By taking heed according to Your word.
10 With my whole heart I have sought You;
Oh, let me not wander from Your commandments!
11 Your word I have hidden in my heart,
That I might not sin against You.

The more you read and meditate the Word of God, the more you are being purified and renewed in the Lord.

(iii) WATCHFULNESS. Watchfulness is simply to work out your professed salvation with trembling and godly fear. It means to carefully apply the Word of God you read and the grace of God you receive through prayer into your daily living. That is when we become fruitful in the Lord. So that the grace we receive in prayer and the strength we receive in the Word of God will not be in vain, we must be watchful how we live our lives, how we talk, how we behave, how we response to people’s provocation, how we abstain from distance appearance of sin, how we dress, cloth we wear, the motive behind our dressing, the motive behind our desire for money, all these must be controlled by the Word of God – this is what watchfulness is all about.

Genuine repentance to salvation in Christ Jesus, total Separation from worldly and sinful things and people and complete Devotion unto God through daily prayer, Bible reading and watchfulness. These are the steps we must daily and carefully take in our journey to heaven.

“For if these things are yours and abound, you will be neither barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. For he who lacks these things is shortsighted, even to blindness, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his old sins. Therefore, brethren, be even more diligent to make your call and election sure, for if you do these things you will never stumble; for so an entrance will be supplied to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.” 2 Peter 1:8-11.

SHOULD CHRISTIANS CELEBRATE VALENTINE?
Valentine was said to be a priest near Rome in about the year 270 A.D, a time when the church was enduring great persecution. His ministry was to help the Christians to escape this persecution, and to provide them the sacraments, such as marriage, which was outlawed by the Roman Empire at that time. He was martyred about AD 269.

So, should children of God celebrate Valentine? And the answer is, for at least two reasons, it is wrong for Bible Christians or Bible church to celebrate Valentine. Here are the two reasons:

(1) It's Wrong To Separate A Day to Celebrate a Saint. There is no reason to argue if the man, Valentine, was a genuine child of God or minister of God, but it is wrong to create a day to specially celebrate a saint or a martyr. There were several martyrs in the Bible and in our contemporary world, so it is of no use creating a day to celebrate them, include martyr Valentine; they are being celebrated in heaven already. For no reason should Bible Christians create a special day to celebrate a martyr. Only Jesus Christ should be celebrated in a special manner. Also, there are many "so called" saints who are really demons, and some of these names called with saints were demonic.

(2) It Doesn't Glory God, So it's Ungodly. Everything about Valentine day is outside Christian activity, unlike Christmas which involves Christian activities and draws us to God, Valentine day has nothing to do with the history of Christianity in the Bible. Valentine day is a general celebration outside Christianity. If Valentine is about sacrifice of love, you don't need to wait till February 14th before you do that. If it is showing or expressing love to loved ones, you don't need a day for that, if it is giving, no need to wait till February 14th before you do that. You don't need to wait till February 14th before you take your spouse out. In reality, Valentine is a celebration of lust, inspired by satanic spirit. There is no side of Valentine celebration that is attached to the Bible, there is no biblical backup for the celebration of Valentine.

If you are a child of God, love is part of you because God is love; if you are a genuine child of God, love is pure and not lust; you should celebrate with your spouse, in a special way at least every weekend. When the world is celebrating lust, you can spend your time to do something better; when the people of the world are waiting for February 14th before they can experience or express special love with their partners or people, you should do that every time, as much as possible.

Romans 12:1-2, "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God."

If you have fallen into any temptation, humble yourself and repent, confess and open up and do the necessary restitution. Trust God and pray to HIM.

MANASSEH & EPHRAIM
From the Bible the word “Manasseh” means forgetfulness or to forget, and the word “Ephraim” fruitfulness or to be fruitful. Both Manasseh and Ephraim were children of Joseph in the land of Egypt. Joseph first had Manasseh, “For God has made me forget all my toil and all my father’s house.” Genesis 41:51. Then he had his second child Ephraim, “For God has caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction.” Genesis 41:52.

So what lesson can we learn from this? There must be Manasseh before we can have Ephraim! We must forget the past, we confess and forsake our sins before we can be fruitful in the Lord.

Before our new life in Christ will become fruitful, we must first forget the old sinful lifestyle. How do we do that? We do that by separating ourselves from sinful partnership, friendship or places; we also do that by destroying, deleting old sinful materials, music, movies, magazines, and detaching from things or people that we not help our new life in Christ.

This must be done immediately we are saved, and failure to do this will hinder our fruitfulness in Christ.

God’s part is to forgive our sins and cleanse us, our part is to forget our past by total separation, and then we begin to be fruitful in the Lord.

This same rule is applicable in our daily living – marital life, career, business, academy, family, etc. If you don’t forget about the past failure, you will not have the strength to take the right steps. We must forget the past to be fruitful in the present.

May the Lord help us to be fruitful as we obey and forget the past in Jesus name.

“Do not remember the former things,
Nor consider the things of old.
19 Behold, I will do a new thing,
Now it shall spring forth;
Shall you not know it?
I will even make a road in the wilderness
And rivers in the desert.
Isaiah 43:18, 19.

GOD BLESS YOU

MISSING GOD’S BLESSING THROUGH FALLING INTO TEMPTATION

Temptation comes from Satan, and the purpose of temptation from Satan is to make a child of God fall into sin. When a child of God falls into sin, he or she loses spiritually, but that does not end there, there are physical blessings such as financial blessings of God, good health, God’s promises and so on that are lost when a child of God falls into temptation.

Temptation to sin come in different ways, it can be temptation to tell lie, to bribe, to cheat in exam, to change your age or personal information in order to get job or traveling documents; temptation can also come in form of immorality, lust, stealing, anger, fighting, malice, conspiracy, compromising, worldly activities and so on.

But the truth is that when a child of God falls into temptation, this will not only hinder his spiritual progress, but physical blessings also. Many Christians have missed the abundant promised blessings of God because of careless falling into temptation of Satan.

TEMPTATION, SATAN’S TRAP TO ROB YOU OF YOUR BLESSINGS
I have discovered by experienced that when God is about to bless me financially more than before, there would be different temptations on my way, and afterwards I would receive a financial or material blessings. Many Christians remain financially and materially unblessed because they fell into one sin or the other. When you cheat in exam, you are handing over your certificate to Satan, when you are committing fornication in your courtship, you are handing over your marriage unto Satan, when you bribe to get job, contract or whatever, and you are missing God’s own blessings.

HERE ARE TWO THINGS YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND BEFORE YOU FALL
1, When you fall into any sin, believing that God will forgive you after you ask for forgiveness, yes God will forgive you if you truly repent, and even if God restore you spiritually, but what about all those physical blessings you will lose, which Satan may permanently steal from you? Many Christians have missed abundant blessings of God for their lives, marriage, business, career and even ministry because of frivolous falling into sin. Have you not read about Esau? Let’s see what Bible says about him:
“Lest there be any fornicator or profane person like Esau, who for one morsel of food sold his birthright. For you know that afterward, when he wanted to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for repentance, though he sought it diligently with tears.” Hebrews 12:16, 17.

Esau thought he could fall into sin and repent and still get all the good promises of God, but it didn't work that way. The Bible says “When he wanted to inherit the blessing, he was rejected” He missed all the blessings just because of “one morsel of food”, a single falling into temptation can render all the good promises of God for your future, marriage, career, ministry, business useless. And so many are thinking like Esau today, they think if they commit sin or compromise, they can quickly repent and ask for forgiveness, yes God is faithful to forgive if you confess, but what about the blessings you might have lost in the process?

2, Another thing you need to understand before you commit sin or compromise into sin for the sake of anything is that God cannot bless or multiply what you get through sin. When you get thing through sinful means, you are working against the blessings of God for your life. When God promise us fruitfulness and multiplying blessings, it cannot work for those who get their things in ungodly means.

If you get your certificate through malpractices and manipulations, how do you want God to bless you with a good job? If you get the job through bribery and manipulation, how do you want God to defend you when crises and enemies rise against you in that workplace? If you lay the foundation of your marriage on premarital sex and fornication, how do you want God to prosper and preserve the marriage?

If you bribe your way with the Customs officers to import or export your goods, how do you expect God to help you sell the goods? If you build a house by money you got through untruthful means, how do you expect God to be with you in that house? If you buy a car through money you got from bribed, manipulated, ungodly means, how can you expect God to keep you from auto accident with that car? If you manipulate your way to get or do things and you still expect God to prosper or protect you with that thing, then you are living in a deception of the highest order. What is not gotten by God cannot be prospered or protected by God. You can go far by manipulated wisdom, by compromising and committing sin and getting your way, but God’s protection and preservation will be far from you, and sudden calamity will shortly ensue.

SOLUTION
God cannot be mocked, do not fall into temptation of Satan for one thing or the other, you will lose much more than what lures you into the temptation. Whatever it will take, take with God and stand for God in all situations and refuse to bow to temptation of Satan.

If you have fallen into any temptation, humble yourself and repent, confess and open up and do the necessary restitution. Trust God and pray to HIM.

WHY MANY WONDERFUL CHRISTIANS ARE MISSING GOD’S BLESSINGS

It’s the desire of God to bless His children not only spiritually but physically, financially, materially and martially, but one of the reasons many children of God are not experiencing the abundant blessings of God beyond human expectation is because many are missing the blessings, and here I want to share with you, by the grace of God, one of the reasons many wonderful Christians are missing God’s blessings.

In your personal life, finance, career, business, marriage or ministry, if things are not working as God promised you, you may or might have been missing the blessings of God only for this reason, and the reason is simple: FAILING GOD’S TEST OR FALLING INTO SATAN’S TEMPTATION.

Today, let’s share the first part:
Why Many Wonderful Christians Are Missing God’s blessings: FAILING GOD’S TEST

Before God can launch you into His abundant blessings, He will first give you a tip of the blessings and see how faithful you will be. God’s test here is not to destroy you or to tempt you into sin but to see how faithful you are with the little or much He has given you.

Every Christian must pass through period of test before they cross to the abundant blessings of God. Test is a path by which we pass into the abundant blessings of God, so passing the test from God is passing into the blessings of God, and failing the test of God is forfeiting the promised blessings of God.

Let’s look at the life of Abraham in Genesis 22. God tested Abraham and asked him to sacrifice his only son Isaac, and he obeyed and passed the test, it was after Abraham passed the test that God confirmed the promise of blessings for him. In verse 15 to 17 of Genesis chapter 22 “ Then the Angel of the LORD called to Abraham a second time out of heaven, 16 and said: “By Myself I have sworn, says the LORD, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son— 17 blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your descendants as the stars of the heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies.”

How God Tests Us
There are different ways God tests His children before releasing the abundant blessings into their lives just like Abraham.

WITH LITTLE: He can test us by giving us a little of the blessings maybe spiritual gift, anointing, talents, financial blessings, etc. and then see how we will be faithful with that little. Many people fail the test of the little. When a Christian fails the test of the little, he may lose that very little he has, Matthew 25:28, or remain stagnant in the little position, Luke 16:11.

WITH WAITING: God also tests His children with a period of waiting. Sometimes when God has the best of the bests for His children, He tests them with waiting patiently on Him. It may be for financial blessings, marital partners, jobs, breaking forth in ministry, etc. So many people are failing the test of waiting on the Lord and so missing the abundant blessings of God for their lives. Many wait 10%, and then loose heart and fall away, many even wait 99.9% and when it remains just few moments, they fall away and miss it forever. You may not know the point at which you have reached in your waiting on the Lord, maybe your time of divine visitation is closer than you think.

The Most Easiest Difficult Thing
One of the difficult things in walking with the Lord is waiting on Him in one area or the other, because you don’t know when the waiting will end, just keep waiting, but it’s easier than wasting your time or your life and missing the blessings of God forever. Waiting on God, though difficult but easy, saves us from wandering about, wasting our time, or working against the will of God, just simply wait, and if we patiently wait till the end, we shall receive the abundant blessings of God beyond human understanding.

When God keeps telling you “WAIT”, though it seems difficult, boring or late, but there is no other way to experience the abundant blessings and fulfillment of God’s promises for your life than to wait on Him to the end.

So What Happens?
What happen if a Christian fails the test of little or waiting? It means that Christian will miss or forfeit the blessings of God either temporally or permanently, depending.

May we not miss the blessings of God for our lives in Jesus name.

This message continues in part 2: Why Many Wonderful Christians Are Missing God’s blessings: FALLING INTO SATAN’S TEMPATION. You must not miss this part, very important because we must not be ignorant of Satan’s devices.

DON’T SHARE IT!
Yesterday evening, I was watching a Football match in my hotel room, and in the match the two teams were to play penalties. As this other Goalkeeper was going for his penalty shootouts, he looked up to heaven in form of prayer for God’s help, and I felt for him, like, may the Lord help him. Good enough for him, when the first player played the penalty, it hit the pole and went out. But I was surprised with the attitude of the Goalkeeper, immediately he began to boastfully beat his chest and speaking with confidence. He was boasting as if he caught the penalty shut, it was God who helped so the shut went out. But this Goalkeeper didn’t look to heaven to thank God or give glory to God, he took all the glory, then I knew his team would be defeated in the penalty shootouts, and so was it, at the end the goalkeeper guy caused to grand failure for his team, he lost his own shootout and couldn’t catch a single shootout.

As this particular CAF game ended last night, I received lessons from it which is applicable to many Christians. When we are in need of one help or the other, we pray to God for help, we looked to heaven for divine help, but when the help comes, we arrogantly take the share the glory with God or even take the whole glory. Many Christians are consciously and carelessly committing this act of evil of sharing the glory of God, and it is not only sinful but also destructive.

There are two things God does not share with any man, which solely belong to God: Glory and vengeance, any human being, who shares glory with God or takes vengeance for himself is committing sin of usurpation, taking the place of God, the very particular sin Satan attempted in heaven.

Understanding The Sharing Formula of God’s Miracle
For every blessing, miracle, wonder or divine help from God, there is a standing formula, meaning that in the package of blessing and miracle from God into our lives, there is a biblical formula we must follow. Here is how it goes: Every miracle or divine help from God into our lives contains two things which are BLESSINGS AND GLORY, now we are to take the blessing for ourselves and return the glory back to God. God does not need the blessing – the divine healing, the miraculous protection, provision, promotion, prosperity, progress, procreation, peace, etc. all these are blessings in God’s miracle which are for our benefits. Then after we take the blessings in the package we are to return the glory inside to package to God, the glory does not belong to us.

When God performs miracle in your life, you can share testimonies, you can share the goodness with others, but DO NOT share the glory with God.

When God does something in your life, when God uses you to do something great in life or for somebody or in the work of ministry, either He does it directly in your life or indirectly through you, the blessings are for you and human beings like you, but the praises and glory should be channeled to God.

I talked with a man who explained to me how they exploit petroleum from below; he then said they would extract the petrol from petroleum and channel the gas to LNG because they don’t need the gas. You know the same way we are to do, we must take the blessings and benefits in every God’s package and channel the glory back to God, don’t share it.

Sharing Glory with God
People share glory with God in their lives in different ways and manners, directly and indirectly. When you don’t first mention God as the major secret of the success, when you expect praises from people, when you expect something in return from people God used you for, when you refer to your abilities or efforts as the main source of your success, or when you think without a particular person, you wouldn’t have made it, then you are sharing glory with God.

Some people share or hijacked God’s glory and give ascribe it to themselves or to another human being, whichever it may be, it is evil, and God does not take a shared glory, meaning any glory that is not 100% God will not take. God does not struggle the blessings with you, all He wants is the glory, but He will not take a shared glory

When We Give All Glory To God
The secret is that when God does something in our lives or uses us to do something in people’s lives, and we faithfully return the glory to God, He will want to do more for us and use us more so He can get more glory and praises through us. And how do we give glory to God?

1, We live for Him daily
2, We refer to Him as the source of the blessing
3, We tell people not to praise us but praise God
4, We praise God for every blessing and benefit
5, We share testimonies of God’s goodness
6, We share with others of the goodness of God.

Psalm 42:8, “I am the LORD, that is My name; And My glory I will not give to another, Nor My praise to carved images.”

WHAT A FOOLISH GENERATION!
With all that are happening everywhere in the world, many are still being fooled by the devil through the deception of riches and cares of the world. The truth is that if you miss the rapture, you cannot spend the money you are saving now after the rapture except they receive the mark of the Ant-Christ. You cannot use the cars, houses and all the possessions Satan is using to delay your salvation and distract you from serving God wholeheartedly.

After you commit sin, compromise, cut corner, or continue in your sins because of the things of this world, when rapture takes place, Satan will not allow you to enjoy the earthly possessions except you register to spend the rest of eternity with him in hell fire by collecting he mark of the beast 666. What a foolish generation! But you will be wise now, won’t you?

Luke 17: 29, "but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. 30 Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.31 “In that day, he who is on the housetop, and his goods are in the house, let him not come down to take them away. And likewise the one who is in the field, let him not turn back. 32 Remember Lot’s wife. 33 Whoever seeks to save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life will preserve it. 34 I tell you, in that night there will be two men in one bed: the one will be taken and the other will be left. 35 Two women will be grinding together: the one will be taken and the other left. 36 Two men will be in the field: the one will be taken and the other left."

IS YOUR CASE REALLY DIFFERENT?

As I was driving last week, I saw several cars with sticker at the back of their vehicles written “My Case Is Different 2017”. That is a new slogan by a popular church in Nigeria. Actually it is a good statement for children of God. But to face the reality, are their cases really different? Or rather, is your case different?

If you believe your case is different for miracle, success and breakthrough, healing, favour, that where others are meeting failure, you will get success, that where others are rejected, you will be accepted, or while people are failing, you will succeed, because your case is different 2017 as your bishop prophesied and declared; but is your case different for righteousness and holiness, so that where others are compromising godly stands, you will refuse, while others are lying and falsifying information to get jobs, contracts, visas, you will say no, while others are giving or receiving bribes to get their ways, you will say “No, my case is different”, where others are committing premarital sex, you will say “No, others may, but my case is different”, while others are cheating in the exams, you will say no, you can’t; while it becomes a common thing for others to cheat on their spouses in your workplace or communities and they say It’s normal, but you will say “NO, others may do that but my case is different!”

If your case is only different for miracles and breakthrough but not different for righteousness and holiness, or if “My case is different” your church emphasized is all about miracles, breakthrough and earthly success, then this scheme of “My Case Is Different 2017” is from the pit of hell transferred to the pit of toilet of your bishop.

“Useless wranglings of men of corrupt minds and destitute of the truth, who suppose that godliness is a means of gain. From such withdraw yourself.” 1 Timothy 6:5

7 COMMON WRONG CONCEPTS AMONG SINGLES IN CHOOSING MARITAL PARTNER

If you are still single, there are many things that may attract you to a man or woman for marital relationship which has nothing to do with marriage, but you may be willfully ignorant of that. Here is the list of such things:

TALENTS
When you see a brother who can play musical instrument very when or a young lady or man who has a good voice, and you feel attracted to the person for marital relationship, now what does singing or musical instrument has to do with marriage? It is called the ignorance of the singles. You may not realize this until you get into marital relationship or you get married that you will know that what attracted you to the person in the first instance has nothing to do with having a successful marriage at all!

PHYSICAL ATTRACTION
This is very funny, but to many singles out there, it is not funny at all, it is rather a costly ignorance. When you are attracted to a man because he knows how to dress very well, or to a lady because she has straight legs, because the person is tall, slim, light skin or glowing skin, or because the person has good set of teeth, long hair, or has a good smile, you are under the influence of common single’s ignorance, because none of these things have anything to do with having a good marriage.
If you go into marital relationship or get married wrongly to a person because of physical attraction, when the agony of bad marriage overwhelms you, you will wish to use cutlass to cut off the straight legs or whatever that lured you to the person.

PHYSICAL BEAUTY
In the book of Proverbs 31: 30, the Bible says, “Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, but a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised.” If you are single and you are still overwhelmed with single exorbitance, this Bible verse will not make any sense to you, you will feel like, “No oh, beauty is something to me o, I want to marry a beautiful woman, that is my longtime dream.” Or “I want to marry a handsome man; in fact I can’t marry less than that.” And you even quote Bible to back it up, that God gives good things to His children. You know what? To the single, beauty is something or everything, but to the married, beauty is nothing.

If you see a beautiful lady or a handsome young man, and you are attracted to the person for marital relationship, because of the beauty, you know what? You are under the influence of single ignorance which will soon clear from your eyes when you get into it.

Physical beauty has nothing to do with a good or happy marriage. If physical beauty has anything to contribute to happy marriage, why do celebrities have more divorce rate? Why do most men with beautiful wives still cheat on their wives or abuse them physically or verbally? It is simply because physical beauty has nothing to do with having a good marriage, and just as the Bible says in Proverbs 31:30 that beauty is passing – meaning the impression that the beauty of person has on you will shortly pass away in marriage and you will face the reality.

FINANCIAL & MATERIAL INFLUENCE
If you marry somebody because the person is rich or have a good job or business, after you get married, you then realize that God had already destined you to prosper on your own without the person, then you will wish you married the right person and prospered together. When you marry somebody because of their financial or material influence, you will not have respect of the person and you will not have rest of mind. Later you will realize that you could have made it richer without the person, that you could have married the poor but right person and make it together.
When you see a couple in a brand new latest SUV and they wear same design, when you see a couple spending their vacation or summer in an expensive place outside the country, and you envy them and wish you have such marriage? What a fool! You don’t know that all those things have nothing to do with happy home. Money, materials and others have nothing to do with a good and godly home. For example, there is no amount of money your husband may have that can console you when you realize he is cheating on you.

If you are attracted to a lady because she has a good job or to a man because he has money and good car, it means you have not known what marriage is all about. Do you know that more rich people commit suicide than the poor? Do you know that more wealthy couple divorce than poor couples? Do you know that money does not give joy and satisfaction in marriage? You may not believe this until you get into it; this is a common ignorance among the singles.

It is unfortunately that many singles are getting into marriage with complete ignorance of the priorities of marriage and with mistake of the fact of marriage.

EDUCATION
Another common ignorance among singles in choosing partner in marriage is education. You want to marry, and you have this idol of education in your heart that the lady you want to marry must be very educated or the man you want to marry must not have lesser education than you. When you ignore the perfect will of God for your life because he is not as educated as you want or because her academic qualification is too low, and you feel, “How will people feel that after all my education I will then marry this person with low academic qualification.” Will it not sound well for people to hear that the person you want to marry graduated from so-so university, or s/he is a Dr, Lawyer, Engr. Etc.? You know what? People you are trying to impress by marrying a wrong educated person will not be there with you in the marriage when tragedy of wrong marriage starts to press on you.

TRIBE
Do you want to marry a particular tribe person or you want to marry the perfect will of God for your life? Will it not be so painful that the heart-breaking wrong person you marry is of same tribe with you or will you not be so peaceful that the loving, godly and right person you marry is from another tribe? Which one is better for you?

It is funny when I see people saying they must marry from their tribe as if they have not seen the worst husbands or wives from that their tribe, as if marrying in their tribes is more important than marrying in the Lord.

PARENTAL INFLUENCE
When you allow your parents to choose for you instead of allowing God to choose for you or when you choose to marry somebody because his or her parents are good or godly, and you go into marital relationship with somebody because it is the wish of your parents or because the parents of the person are ministers, popular, or powerful in the society, such is called ignorance of the single. When you enter into the wrong marriage, your parents or the parents of your spouse will not be there with you.

THE ONLY RIGHT CHOICE
If you don’t want to marry and mar your life, destiny, ministry and eternity, but if you want to marry and make it in life, and also make heaven, then the only person you can marry and never regret it is the person who is the will of God for you. God has created a person for you that fits your life, destiny, God’s program for you and that is what is called the will of God in marriage. You may miss the right school, the right carrier for you or the right job, but please do not miss the right person God has created for you because if you miss it, you may miss everything including heaven.

HOW TO DISCOVER THE WILL OF GOD IN MARRIAGE
1, Surrender your life to Jesus. Only in Christ you have the will of God, until you are genuinely saved.
2, Surrender your will and ways to God. Let His will be your will and His way be yours, no idol.
3, Seek Him for guidance. Lean not on your own understanding
4, Settle for God’s will, not your permissive will
5, Stay pure till marriage. No premarital inordinate affection or sexual immorality.
Here is the word of God – Isaiah 1:19, 20:
“If you are willing and obedient,
You shall eat the good of the land;
20 But if you refuse and rebel,
You shall be devoured by the sword”;
For the mouth of the LORD has spoken.”

PASSING THROUGH PROBLEM? CALM DOWN
Matthew 26:53, “Or do you think that I cannot now pray to My Father, and He will provide Me with more than twelve legions of angels?”

You are passing through problems and difficulties; you have been praying that God should solve or remove the problem, but things have not changed. Then you are perplexed because God doesn't answer your prayer as you desire. You are so disturbed, thinking God does not love you? Thinking Jesus Christ is ignoring you? Do you think Jesus cannot talk to His Father and provide immediate solution? But how then will the scripture be fulfilled in your life for good?

In your present difficulties, do you think Jesus does not care for you so much? Do you think He does not has the power to send millions of angels to attend to you? But how will God’s special purpose be fulfilled in your life? What really matters to Jesus in your life is not the present problem you are passing through but for God’s peculiar purpose to come to pass in your life.

God planned the salvation of the world through the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross, no other way. If Jesus did not pass through Calvary to the cross, then there wouldn’t have been salvation for the world. In like manner God planned the promotion and greatness of Joseph by passing through problems and prison, if he didn’t pass through prison, he would not have come to palace; if he had compromised in sin at the Potiphar’s house, if he had been discouraged and gave up along the way, that would have brought God’s purpose for his life to an end.

And now is your turn. You are passing through several problems in your personal life, marriage, ministry, business, academy, finance; those problems are not God’s purpose for your life, they are just a passage by which you pass into God’s purpose in your life. God’s part is to be faithful to His promise, He did not need to show you the problem from the beginning, He didn’t show Joseph either, because He is not concern about the temporal problem, His concern is to fulfill His purpose which He has promised you. Your own part is to patiently wait and stay faithful to Him. Now, the question is, will you complain and compromise into sin for quick relief? Or will you continue and let God’s purpose come to pass in your life?

Why do you complain as if Jesus is not able to ask His Father for immediate provision for you? But how will the purpose of God come to pass in your life? You must care for God’s purpose coming to pass in your life, not complaining about the present condition which will soon pass away. Sometimes, I felt like, “God, why will you allow me passing through this tough time, it is getting too much for me.” But then God gave me this message, I have to encourage myself in the Lord and hold on. It is not easy to hold on in this present life when everything is moving fast, but since God controls time and season, our waiting on Him will not make our season to expire until His special promises comes to pass. He is never too late. You may say, “But it is late already, time has really gone on me.” The truth is that, when we wait on God, He turns the “late” to “latest” since He is in charge of the universe.

Do not compromise God’s scripture, do not compromise God’s standard; persevere in prayer and persist in purity. As God is working great things for you which eyes have not seen, He is only making you to pass through situation to make you strong, He is only making you to experience difficulties to do you good at the end. If you wait faithfully on God and serve Him, the fire you pass through will not burn you but refine you. The end result is what really matter, and God is the Beginning and the End. So wait on Him, watch in prayer, Bible reading and godliness, and working for Him; no complaining and no compromising into sin.

Psalm 66:10-12
For You, O God, have tested us;
You have refined us as silver is refined.
11 You brought us into the net;
You laid affliction on our backs.
12 You have caused men to ride over our heads;
We went through fire and through water;
But You brought us out to rich fulfillment.

Are you ready to rededicate your life to Jesus now or start a new life? Then repent! Confess all your sins, forsake them all and ask Jesus to forgive, cleanse you and save you. Please click on this link and read on how to be genuinely saved and start new life in Jesus and pray as directed

THE ACTS OF GENUINE FAITH

Hebrews 11:6, “But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.”

Faith in God is not just to believe God for miracle or something, but it is to please God. To believe who God is and displease Him at the same time are contradictory opposite. If you believe that God is holy, righteous, and faithful and you are living unholy, unrighteous and unfaithful life it means your faith in God is fake. Genuine faith in God seeks to please in His commands.

“But without faith it is impossible to please Him.” Hebrews 11:6. It is not possible to please God without faith, and it is not possible to have faith without pleasing God. Those preachers and churches who claim faith without holiness and righteousness are false. If your understanding about faith in God is just to believe God for blessing and miracle, then you have not gotten the clear understanding of the biblical faith.

Genuine faith of the Bible is believing God and pleasing God at the same time. If you believe and you fail to please Him in obedience to His commands, then your faith is fake and unfruitful. Faith without fruitfulness in the word of God is fake. Faith alone will amount to nothing if not accomplished with the work of righteousness. Believing alone without behaving to please God is bad.

Bible categorizes those who believe God without working righteousness as fools, because even demons are better than them. How? Do you know that demons also believe God, and they even tremble? Yet they are condemned, so your belief in God without work of righteousness is empty. James 2:19, 29 “You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! 20 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?”

Faith in God without working righteousness in God is dead, such faith is of same level with the faith of demons, and such churches and preachers who teach that all you need is faith in God and His righteousness without you pleasing God in righteous living are teaching doctrines of demons. Demons believe there is God, they believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God and they tremble. Mark 5:7, “And he cried out with a loud voice and said, “What have I to do with You, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I implore You by God that You do not torment me.”

So you believe there is God? Devil and demons do. You believe Jesus Christ is Lord? Devil and demons do believe also, they even tremble before God which many “so called” Christians don’t. So what makes difference between your faith and demons’ faith if your faith lacks work of righteousness?

One of the doctrines of demons of this end time is faith without work; it teaches to just believe, confess and cash, but such faith never produces righteousness or holy living in such believers; they are loud in their confessions, they claim to be the righteousness of God, but they lack fruit of righteousness. Apostle Paul warned of such believers, preachers and churches, “having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!” 2 Timothy3:5.

Faith in God, in Jesus Christ as the Savior is form of righteousness, but the power thereof is living to please God in righteousness and holy living. If you believe in faith without pleasing God in holiness and righteousness, you are ruining your soul, if you are going to a church that teaches faith without working righteousness, you must run away from such, and if you have any book, CD or Christian material that emphasizes on faith in God without emphasis on pleasing God in holiness, you must destroy such; Bible warning is “And from such people turn away!” 2 Timothy3:5.

Have you gotten genuine faith that pleases God and produces righteousness in your life since you have believed? If not, why not now? All you need to do is to embrace the truth and abandon false teachings about faith; rededicate your life to Jesus and start a new faith that will not fail you on the rapture day.

Jude 3, 4 “Beloved, while I was very diligent to write to you concerning our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints. 4 For certain men have crept in unnoticed, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lewdness and deny the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Jude 3, 4 “Beloved, while I was very diligent to write to you concerning our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints. 4 For certain men have crept in unnoticed, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lewdness and deny the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ.”

THE DOCTRINES OF DEMONS: Faith Without Work

Faith in God without working righteousness in God is dead, such faith is of same level with the faith of demons, and such churches and preachers who teach that all you need is faith in God and His righteousness without you pleasing God in righteous living are teaching doctrines of demons. Demons believe there is God, they believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God and they tremble. Mark 5:7, “And he cried out with a loud voice and said, “What have I to do with You, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I implore You by God that You do not torment me.”

So you believe there is God? Devil and demons do. You believe Jesus Christ is Lord? Devil and demons do believe also, they even tremble before God which many “so called” Christians don’t. So what makes difference between your faith and demons’ faith if your faith lacks work of righteousness?

One of the doctrines of demons of this end time is faith without work; it teaches to just believe, confess and cash, but such faith never produces righteousness or holy living in such believers; they are loud in their confessions, they claim to be the righteousness of God, but they lack fruit of righteousness. Apostle Paul warned of such believers, preachers and churches, “having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!” 2 Timothy3:5.

THE HALF TRUTH OF ERRONEOUS GOSPEL
2 Timothy 3:5, "having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!"

Many Christians, preachers and churches of today are filled with the heresy of half-truth. Everybody likes truth, everyone want to be associated with truth, and so Satan is deceiving many with half-truth in the name of Truth. If we claim to know the truth of the Word of God, do we know half-truth or the whole truth? If we claim to be saying the truth, are we saying the whole truth or half-truth? Half-truth is more dangerous than no truth at all, but Satan is fooling many Christians and ministers of the church today. They have the elements of truth, but denying the power thereof. Read 2 Timothy 3:5

Half-truth is heresy, and everyone living in half-truth is living an erroneous life. That is the gospel many are carrying about today. Heresy means overemphasizing a part of truth and leaving the other part behind. Many and modern church of today are perfect illustration of heresy, they are overemphasizing some part of the scriptures that sooth them and leaving other parts behind. That is half-truth of heresy. Though they claim what they are preaching is from the Bible, they quote the Bible to back what they preach, but they are preaching heresy – uncompleted truth.

They emphasize on “NO CONDEMNATION” but they ignore the message of “NO CONTINUITY IN SIN” and many Christians are falling victim of this permissive heresy.

The complete truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ was demonstrated in John 8:11, when Jesus met the harlot woman and told her, “Neither do I condemn you, go and sin no more” No condemnation of sinner, and no continuity of sin after meeting with Jesus. But the heresy of today will emphasize only on “no condemnation” they claim “God does not condemn us, God is merciful and loving, He does not condemn sinners” Yes that is true, but what about the later part of “go and sin no more” They ignore that, and that makes many to fall into heresy.

It is important for us to examine our lives, as Christians, are we part of the Christians living in or preaching half-truth of heresy in this end time? The modern church of today is perverted by Satan to give people false hope, to give people half-truth, to make Christians overemphasize sweet part of the scripture and omit sacrificing part; to make Christians emphasize on promises of the Bible and ignore purity of the Bible, to make many focus on prosperity of this passing world and forget the preparation for the coming of the new and everlasting world. Are you among the deceived Christians of half-truth of heresy or you are among the deceivers of heresy?

Half-truth of confession without repentance will lead to no genuine salvation. We hear message of salvation of today in many churches, from many preachers as “confess and be saved”. That people should just come, come and come, then, “ If you want to give your life to Jesus Christ and begin to enjoy the blessings, prosperity, deliverance and healing, all you need to do is to confess, say it after me ‘Jesus , I have come to you, I confess you as my Savior’ Now you are saved.” This process of confession without repentance will NEVER bring genuine salvation.
That is the reason you hear funny things happening among them, because they don’t have genuine experience of salvation that is the reason such Christians will continue in sin even after they have been ordained ministers, because the foundation is false and faulty.

How can you ask somebody to confess his sin without first telling him to repent? How can you say somebody is saved when the person does not understand what repentance is all about? Confession of sin without first repentance is half-truth that leads to heresy and hell.

Because the preachers who preach confession of sin without repentance do not understand genuine salvation themselves or they want multitude. Christians whose foundation is based on confessions of sin without genuine repentance will always find themselves committing the sins they have confessed. Repentance will make somebody to count the cost before coming to Christ, that you must not only realize your sin, but you must make up your mind to forsake them, that you have the cross of self-denying to bear after you come to Christ, that Christian life is not about prosperity, prophesying but righteousness, truth and joy in the Holy Spirit.

The half-truth of confession without repentance, of coming to Christ and continuing in sin at the same time is heresy of this end time, which every Christian who wants to make rapture must watch against. Confession of sins alone will not bring the mercy of God, but only those who repent, confess and forsake the sin they confess will experience unlimited mercy. Proverbs 28:13.

The Gracious Truth
John 1:14, “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.”

The true Gospel of the Bible is full of grace and truth. The grace of God through Jesus Christ is no condemnation, that is the grace of the Bible – God’s favour, God’s power to live above sin and victorious over Satan. And the truth of the Gospel is to go and sin no more after we meet Jesus Christ.

Are you living your life in the light of the truth of the Gospel or half-truth of heresy? We must repent before it is too late and rededicate ourselves to the whole truth of our Lord Jesus Christ. Genuine salvation of the Gospel is to repent, confess, forsake the confessed sins and follow Jesus in new life. Read 2 Corinthians 5:17

PERSONAL EXAMINATION- Please reflect on this teaching and pray to recommit your life to Jesus Christ, He is waiting for you.

WHO HAS MADE WHO RICH?
I heard someone talking of his bishop, he said in around 1985, God told the bishop in America that, “My son, go to Nigeria and deliver my people from poverty and make them rich.” But 30 years after, the bishop who had little and maybe one or two cars then, now has privates jets and many things, and Nigeria whom he came to deliver from poverty is getting poorer, more unemployment, more poverty, lack of primary health-care, more crimes, and education is more expensive, even his own private schools are too average Nigerians - the very people he came to deliver from poverty.

Now who has made who rich? Is it the bishop who has made Nigeria rich or covetous Nigerian followers who are seeking for prosperity by "fake" have made the bishop rich? The Bible says by covetousness these so called "ministers of God" will exploit you. 2 Peter 2:3

DEVOTIONS
Salvation in Christ is the beginning of new life as the foundation of our faith, separation is your commitment to settle your new life and devotion is your consecration to God to seal your new life in Christ Jesus. Devotion unto God involves three things:

(i) Daily prayer. To maintain a victorious Christian life, you need a fervent prayer life, praying for God’s sanctification, strength and grace every day; praying for the spiritual understanding and knowledge of God to help you avoid errors. A heavenly minded Christian must spend much of his prayer time on his spiritual life, but the carnal minded Christians pray more about earthly stuff, blessings, provision, and attack against enemies. You must pray morning and evening about your new life in Jesus, let your spiritual life be your priority in your daily prayer, and every other things good will follow. Prayer strengthens us to resist the temptation of sin. Matthew 26:41. “Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”

(ii) Daily Bible Reading. It is a must for you to spend at least 30mins daily to read and meditate the Word of God. Don’t just read, but prayerfully read and meditate, thinking over and over the Bible passages as you read until you understand and take note. The Word of God helps us not to fall back into sin.
Psalm 119:9-11,
“How can a young man cleanse his way?
By taking heed according to Your word.
10 With my whole heart I have sought You;
Oh, let me not wander from Your commandments!
11 Your word I have hidden in my heart,
That I might not sin against You.

The more you read and meditate the Word of God, the more you are being purified and renewed in the Lord.

(iii) WATCHFULNESS. Watchfulness is simply to work out your professed salvation with trembling and godly fear. It means to carefully apply the Word of God you read and the grace of God you receive through prayer into your daily living. That is when we become fruitful in the Lord. So that the grace we receive in prayer and the strength we receive in the Word of God will not be in vain, we must be watchful how we live our lives, how we talk, how we behave, how we response to people’s provocation, how we abstain from distance appearance of sin, how we dress, cloth we wear, the motive behind our dressing, the motive behind our desire for money, all these must be controlled by the Word of God – this is what watchfulness is all about.

Genuine repentance to salvation in Christ Jesus, total Separation from worldly and sinful things and people and complete Devotion unto God through daily prayer, Bible reading and watchfulness. These are the steps we must daily and carefully take in our journey to heaven.

“For if these things are yours and abound, you will be neither barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. For he who lacks these things is shortsighted, even to blindness, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his old sins. Therefore, brethren, be even more diligent to make your call and election sure, for if you do these things you will never stumble; for so an entrance will be supplied to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.” 2 Peter 1:8-11.

God bless you as we continue in this glorious journey to heaven. Forward ever, and backward never in Jesus name.

SEPARATION
After you have experienced genuine salvation, the first step you will need to take immediately is separation, you must separate yourself from every connection to old sinful life, from things that will not help or support your new life in Jesus Christ such as worldly music, movies, magazine – you will delete or destroy them; you will immediately stop going to places that will not help you spiritually includes worldly churches. You must detach yourself from people that will not help your spiritual life, friendship or relationship. You must destroy every sinful, worldly or cultic material in your possession including all the worldly dresses, clothing, jewelries – you don’t keep them or give to people, but you get rid of them completely and immediately.

After you experience salvation, failure to separate yourself from old sinful and worldly things and people will lead you to fall back into sins. Instead of you to move forward with Christ in new life, those things or people will pull you back into darkness and your old vomit. That is what Apostle Peter says in 2 Peter 2:22, “But it has happened to them according to the true proverb: “A dog returns to his own vomit,” and, “a sow, having washed, to her wallowing in the mire.”

Every Christian journey that will successfully lead to heaven must daily involve separation as a continuous exercise. Separation from worldly, sinful things and people is not only for new convert, it is not only useful for us at our early Christian level but continuously till we get to heaven because when you separate yourself from this sinful or worldly thing today, the devil will introduce another thing tomorrow. That is the reason the Bible warns us to daily search ourselves so as to continue the spiritual exercise of separation. Unfortunately many long-time Christians and Christian ministers are majestically marching straight into eternity without realizing that the devil has implanted some ungodliness, uncleanness or worldliness into their lives, because they fail to exercise daily spiritual checking for separation.

EXPLANATORY BIBLE STUDY:
2 THINGS YOU NEED AFTER YOU ARE SAVED: Separation & Devotion

After you genuinely repent, confess your sins and saved from sins, you will need two things to do and keep doing for you to maintain your salvation. It is a bad news that many people are saved but they lose their salvation and fall back to old bondage of sin because they lack the understanding of new life in Jesus Christ. It is possible for you to be saved in the morning and lose the salvation in the evening if you don’t take these two necessary steps. Salvation is conditional, not an unconditional certificate.

Many people do experience genuine salvation but fall back into sin because they fail to take these two steps after they are saved. And the same thing is applicable to falling back into addicted sins.
Failure to do the right things after you are saved will lead you to fall back into sins you have rejected. Let’s look at the Word of God, Matthew 12:43-45:

“When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places, seeking rest, and finds none. 44 Then he says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came.’ And when he comes, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order. 45 Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that man is worse than the first. So shall it also be with this wicked generation.”

This reveals why many people who were genuinely saved usually fall back into sin. Behind every sin is an unclean spirit, and when you genuinely repent and experience salvation, the unclean spirits will go out of your life, including the addicted sins, and your heart will be swept clean and in order, but if you do take the right steps of total separation and devotion after you are saved, some forces of those sins will come back and you will fall back into old sins.

So if you don’t want to keep rising and falling, if you don’t want to keep falling back into the addicted sins, you need SEPARATION and DEVOTION after you genuinely repent from all your sins. Let’s look at them one after another:

SEPARATION
After you have experienced genuine salvation, the first step you will need to take immediately is separation, you must separate yourself from every connection to old sinful life, from things that will not help or support your new life in Jesus Christ such as worldly music, movies, magazine – you will delete or destroy them; you will immediately stop going to places that will not help you spiritually includes worldly churches.

You must destroy every sinful, worldly or cultic material in your possession including all the worldly dresses, clothing, jewelries – you don’t keep them or give to people, but you get rid of them completely and immediately.

After you experience salvation, failure to separate yourself from old sinful and worldly things and people will lead you to fall back into sins. Instead of you to move forward with Christ in new life, those things or people will pull you back into darkness and your old vomit. That is what Apostle Peter says in 2 Peter 2:22, “But it has happened to them according to the true proverb: “A dog returns to his own vomit,” and, “a sow, having washed, to her wallowing in the mire.”

Every Christian journey that will successfully lead to heaven must daily involve separation as a continuous exercise. Separation from worldly, sinful things and people is not only for new convert, it is not only useful for us at our early Christian level but continuously till we get to heaven because when you separate yourself from this sinful or worldly thing today, the devil will introduce another thing tomorrow. That is the reason the Bible warns us to daily search ourselves so as to continue the spiritual exercise of separation. Unfortunately many long-time Christians and Christian ministers are majestically marching straight into eternity without realizing that the devil has implanted some ungodliness, uncleanness or worldliness into their lives, because they fail to exercise daily spiritual checking for separation.

HOW TO SECURE AND SUSTAIN THE PRESENCE OF GOD

Psalm 15:
LORD, who may abide in Your tabernacle?
Who may dwell in Your holy hill?
2 He who walks uprightly,
And works righteousness,
And speaks the truth in his heart;
3 He who does not backbite with his tongue,
Nor does evil to his neighbor,
Nor does he take up a reproach against his friend;
4 In whose eyes a vile person is despised,
But he honors those who fear the LORD;
He who swears to his own hurt and does not change;
5 He who does not put out his money at usury,
Nor does he take a bribe against the innocent.
He who does these things shall never be moved

1. SURRENDER ALL TO JESUS CHRIST. To experience the abiding presence of God is not mostly by fasting and prayer, but by total surrender to Jesus Christ. You cannot continue in your sin and experience the awesome presence of God.

You need to surrender your life to Jesus Christ afresh in holiness and righteousness. You repent, confess and forsake your sin. Make all your ways right, settle necessary restitution and allow Jesus to be the Lord of your life. Do not allow Satan and Sin to dictate your life this year.

2. SEEK HIM DAILY. You want to secure and sustain God’s presence in your life? You need to seek God first thing first daily. Seek His word daily in your daily devotion. Spend time with God daily in Bible reading and prayer. You must endure to finish reading Bible from Genesis to Revelation. Meditate daily in the Word of God. The Lord revealed to me that those who seek Him more in Bible reading and meditation will experience divine leading and guidance of God than never before. What we need more this year is not more of fasting (though we need to fast often) but more of meditation of God’s word and applying it into our daily living.

Do not be stupid to miss your daily devotion for a day this year, no matter how busy you may become. There is no excuse for being foolish or being consciously stupid, because only the fool will allow whatever to hinder them from having personal refreshing and renewing time with God.

3. SERVE GOD THAN NEVER BEFORE. There is no idle time in the kingdom, every genuine child of God must be occupied in serving God at every time, everywhere and with whatever God blesses you with. If there is anytime we are closer to the Rapture, it is this year 2017, and if there is any time of urgency to preach the Gospel to all, it is this year. Preach the Word of God at all time, you cannot overdo it. Share the Word of God with believers for edification. Preach and share God’s word on phone, on Facebook, online, on board, in your workplace, in your school, to your family, friends, strangers, TO ALL.

4. SHARE YOUR TIME AND RESOUCES. Intercede for both sinners and the saved. We need one another intercession than never before. As we share God’s word, we must also share love with one another, which is part of serving God. Share from the little you have and seek for brethren in need and do not hesitate to share and assist. The doors of outpouring blessing of God will be shut against those we are selfish and stinging this year. God needs your tithes and offering and also giving to brethren, friends and even strangers need your sharing.

As you surrender all to Jesus Christ, the Author and Finisher of our lives, and as we seek Him daily without interruption and serve Him with all our mind and strength, great will our joy and rejoicing this year in Jesus name!

Psalm 16:11, “You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.”

KEY FOR SUCCESS AND PROSPERITY IN 2017
““And you shall remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you power to get wealth, that He may establish His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is this day.” Deuteronomy 8:18

Everybody needs financial blessing and increase for personal life, for marriage, for family, for the work of God and for our general care, but while the people of the world run here and there seeking for prosperity, God usually lead His children in the right path, He gives them the secrets and keys (power) to get wealth without committing sin, without stressing, struggling, sorrow or satanic manipulation.

For every year, God usually give His children the hidden key, power to get wealth and success different from the system of the world, so that we will not be running up and down like the people of the world, so that we will not be worrying and wandering like the people of the world; and when we discover this key, trust God and obey, the results are always overwhelmingly wonderful!

God revealed to me a secret, key – power to get wealth and success in every area of life for this year 2017, it is not only for me but for all children of God worldwide, and that is what I want to share with you now.

Early last year 2016, as I was planning to invest and improve my business, the Lord revealed the key of success and prosperity to me – paying debt first before investing. This might sound odd to the business world but I trusted God and obeyed, and Immediately I shared it online. This same last year the Lord blessed me beyond my expectation, while several businesses were casting down, the Lord lifted our business.

As we were rounding up year 2016, which was December last year, the Lord revealed to me the key, secret, power to succeed and get wealth in 2017, and immediately I started obeying and using it. So I see it fit to share it with you here. Maybe you are trusting God for financial blessing, blessing in your business or career, good job, promotion in your workplace; or you are trusting God for academic success, healing, marriage, childbearing, etc. As long you are listed among the children of God through genuine salvation, this key for success will work for you if only you trust God and obey.

This is the key for success and prosperity in 2017: SHARING

This sharing is in 3 folds as the Lord reveals to me and I will briefly state them:

SHARING THE GOSPEL
If you have been trusting God for anything in your life or family, and you have prayed and fasted; if you are trusting God for blessing, breakthrough or success in any aspects of your life this year, the key you need this year is to take more time to share, preach the word of God. You must spend your time, energy and money to share the gospel more this year. Share the word of God online, by SMS, by phone call, through one on one preaching to your friends, family members, and people in your environment. Also you must pray and discover a special way to share the word of God, maybe by printing tracks, doing morning cry, radio program, village mission, school mission, children ministry, sharing Bible and other Christian materials, etc.

SHARING YOUR FINANCE
Secret of wealth and financial breakthrough this year is not by having 100 streams of incomes. The secret is by sharing with those in need – your family members, friends, genuine ministers of God with genuine needs, and people generally. Since I discovered this last year December, I told my wife that if possible, we could share all our income and profit for the month of December, and I began to look for few ministers of God in needs, especially the outreach Evangelists to share the very little I had.

Please take note that I am not saying you should sow seeds into the lives of your daddy G.O or senior pastors who have enough and a lot in their bank accounts, such giving is a waste, and instead of bringing you blessing, it will bring curse. Giving to rich people or rich ministers while you ignore people and genuine ministers with genuine needs is a waste of resources which will later bring punishment from God. “…he who gives to the rich, will surely come to poverty.” Proverbs 22:16.

You can share from the little you have with your family members, friends, for the work of God, and with genuine ministers with genuine needs in your locality, those in mission fields, and even the pastors in your village as the Lord lead you. Wasting money by contributing to multi-millions dollar church building project will never open door of financial breakthrough, also the so called first fruit sowing seed of your first salary is also useless to the plan and program of God for sharing.

SHARING YOUR TIME
God want His children to share their time for good cause not just for our personal benefits alone, we must share time to call, follow up, pray for people and visit the right people. Instead of spending your time for nonessential like incessant watching Football, sport, you can spend your time to profit others, share the gospel, follow up, visit and pray for people.

Here is the promise of God for us as we faithfully trust and obey Him in these sharing, “I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name.” Revelation 3:8

Have a blessed year!

8 Lies That Destroy Marriage
Every wrong behavior begins with believing a lie.
by Bill Elliff

Imagine meeting with an engaged couple a few weeks before they are married. With excitement they describe how they met and how their relationship developed. The husband-to-be proudly describes how he set up a perfect romantic evening so he could pop the big question.

Then they surprise you by saying, “We want to get married and have some children. At first we will feel a lot of love for each other. Then we’ll start arguing and hating each other. In a few years, we’ll get a divorce.”

Who would enter marriage intending to get a divorce? And yet, divorce is occurring at alarming rates. A large number of people in my church have been hurt deeply by divorce—they’ve been divorced themselves, or they’ve felt the pain of a parent or relative divorcing.

As common as divorce is, I’m convinced that most of them could be avoided. Mark this down on the tablet of your heart: Every wrong behavior begins with believing a lie. Our culture promotes many deceptions that can quickly destroy a marriage. Here are eight:

Lie #1. "My happiness is the most important thing about my marriage.”
As a pastor, I can’t tell you how many people have justified breaking up their marriages by saying, “I have to do this. God just wants me to be happy.”

But according to God’s Word, a spouse’s individual happiness is not the purpose for marriage.
The Bible says in Colossians 3:17: “Whatever you do in word or deed,” do for the glory of God. While all parts of creation are to glorify God, mankind was made in God’s very image. Through marriage, husbands and wives are to reflect His character and have children who will reflect His character … all the way to the end of time.

Every marriage knows unhappiness. Every marriage knows conflict. Every marriage knows difficulty. But everyone can be joyful in their marriage by focusing on God’s purposes and His glory instead of individual happiness.

Lie #2. “If I don’t love my spouse any longer, I should get a divorce.”
It’s a tragedy to lose love in marriage. But the loss of human love can teach us to access a deeper love—the very love of God Himself. That love is patient and kind … it never fails (1 Corinthians 13). It even cares for its enemies.

When human love dies in a marriage, a couple can enter into one of the most exciting adventures they’ll ever have: learning how to love each other with God’s love. Romans 5:5 tells us that this very love “has been poured out within our hearts, through the Holy Spirit.”

Lie #3. “My private immorality does not affect my marriage.”
A lot of people think, I can view pornography in the privacy of my home. It’s just me and my magazine, or computer … it doesn’t affect my marriage.

Oneness in marriage is hijacked by sexual immorality. Paul says in 1 Corinthians 6:15, “Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take away the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute?”

In the 21st century, there are many ways to join oneself with a prostitute: physically, through the pages of a magazine, on a computer’s video screen, etc. Paul’s advice is the same today as it was thousands of years ago: Flee immorality (1 Corinthians 6:18).

If you take your emotional and sexual energy and spend it on someone else, there will be nothing left for your spouse. Those who continually view pornography or engage in sexual fantasies are isolating themselves.

Lie #4. “My sin (or my spouse’s sin) is so bad that I need to get a divorce.”
The truth is God can fix our failures—any failure. The Bible says to forgive one another, just as God in Christ has forgiven us (Colossians. 3:13).
“But,” you ask, “Doesn’t Matthew 19:9 say that God allows divorce in the case of sexual immorality?” Yes. I believe that it does—when there is an extended period of unrepentance. Yet, nowhere in that passage does God demand divorce. When there is sexual sin, we should seek to redeem the marriage and so illustrate the unfathomable forgiveness of God.

Some of the greatest life messages I know are the marriages of people who have repented from sexual sin and spouses who have forgiven them. Their lives today are living testimonies to the truth found in Joel 2:25: “… I will make up to you for the years that the swarming locust has eaten.”

Lie #5. “I married the wrong person.”
Many people have told me, for example, that they are free to divorce because they married an unbeliever. “I thought he/she would become a Christian, but that didn’t happen. We need to get a divorce.” They recall that they knew it was a mistake, but they married anyway—hoping it would work out. Others claim that they just married someone who wasn’t a good match, someone who wasn’t a true “soul mate.”

A wrong start in marriage does not justify another wrong step. “And we know that God causes all things to work together for good,” says Romans 8:28, “to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.”

God tells us not to be poured into the world’s mold. Instead we are to be transformed and that begins in our minds. By doing this, God will give us exactly what we need for our lives. God’s will for us is good, acceptable, and perfect (Romans 12:1-2).

Here’s the key for those who are now married: The Bible clearly says do not divorce (with the exception for extended, unrepentant sexual immorality). God can take even the worst things of life and work them together for good if we will just trust Him.
Lie #6. “My spouse and I are incompatible.”
I don’t know a lot of husbands and wives who are truly compatible when they get married. In marriage, God joins together two flawed people.

If I will respond correctly to my spouse’s weaknesses, then God can teach me forgiveness, grace, unconditional love, mercy, humility, and brokenness. The life of a person who believes in Jesus Christ is developed by responses to not only happy things, but also to difficulties. And those very difficulties include weaknesses.

That is why we are told in Colossians 3:12-13 to “put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience; bearing with one another, and forgiving each other.” My spouse’s weaknesses are not hindrances. Instead, they are the doorway to spiritual growth. This is a liberating truth.

If I will respond to my spouse’s shortcomings with unconditional acceptance, my love won’t be based on performance. I won’t say, “You need to live up to these expectations.” I will be able to accept my spouse, weaknesses and all. And that acceptance will swing open the door of change for not only my spouse, but also for me.

Lie #7. “Breaking the marriage covenant won’t hurt me or my children.”
When divorce enters a family, there are always scars. I know this firsthand; although I was an adult when my father committed adultery and divorced my mother, decades later there are still effects. Many consequences of divorce never go away.

Blake Hudspeth, our church’s youth pastor, also understands the pain of divorce. He was 5 years old when his parents divorced, and it was hard for him to understand God as Father and to trust people. “The people I trusted the most split up.” He also found it difficult to accept love from others “because I didn’t know if they truly loved me.” And Blake developed a fear of marriage. “Am I going to follow the trend of divorce, because my parents and grandparents divorced?”

Blake’s father even wrote him and said, “This was the worst decision I made in my life. It was bad. It hurt you. It hurt our family. When I divorced your mom, I divorced our family because I broke a covenant that we were a part of.”

Blake says that his parents (who both remarried) have embraced the gospel, resulting in him readily accepting advice and encouragement from them. “Watching the gospel play out … with my mom and dad was huge,” he says.

Lie #8. “There’s no hope for my marriage—it can’t be fixed.”
This may be the most devastating lie of all. Because in more than four decades of counseling couples, I’ve seen God do the seeming impossible thousands of times. In a dying marriage, He just needs two willing parties. God knows how to get us out of the messes we get ourselves into.

I tell these couples about people like Chuck and Ann, who were involved in drugs and alcohol before God restored their home. Or Lee and Greg, who were engaged in multiple affairs. God brought them back to Christ and to each other. Now they have six children and a marriage ministry. Or Jim and Carol who had taken off their wedding rings and were living in separate bedrooms and about to live in separate worlds when God redeemed them.

If you begin to think, There is no hope for my marriage, realize that, “With God all things are possible” (Matthew 19:26).

We must combat the lies about marriage. The truth will set us free (John 8:32). God can fix anything!
GOD BLESS YOU!

GOD’S MESSAGE FOR THE NEW YEAR 2017 & PRAYER POINTS (PLEASE READ THIS)

Genesis 1:28 is God’s message for His children this year, it is no just a promise but a command, It’s not just what God want to do for us but we have our responsibilities to take in the message. This is a two-side message – God has His responsibilities and we have our responsibilities. Here is the message:

“Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” Genesis 1:28

This message is meant for every Christians and Christian ministers for our spiritual life, personal life, marriage, ministries, jobs, businesses and careers.

BE FRUITFUL
“Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful …” Genesis 1:28

The Lord commands us to “be fruitful” He didn’t say “I will make you fruitful” This is a command with His divine backup and strength. There are 3 ways the Lord expect us to be fruitful and more fruitful this year:

IN THE WORD & WILL OF GOD. God wants us to be fruitful in the His Word, in spending more time to read and meditate on His word, and to be fruitful in the Spirit. Doing the will of God as regards to our daily living by bringing forth the fruit of the Spirit.

IN THE WORK OF GOD. If you have not discovered the aspect of the ministry you will be fully involved and engaged in the work of God this year, you must do that now. I am not saying you must just join workers in your church and be busy for nothing, but to discover the ministry God has for you in or outside the church that will directly result to ministering salvation to sinners and edification to believers. Being involved in the work of God is not just being busy in the church or being ordained in the church, but involving in the ministrations to sinners for salvation and saints for edification with evidence of the fruits of the work – salvation of souls, edification of believers.

In business, in my own definition of marketing, it is not just talking, showing or roaming about, until money changes hands there is no marketing. The same thing is applicable in the works of ministry; it is not just being busy, talking, singing, leading, acting, etc. until there is salvation of souls and edification of believers, there is no ministry.

IN YOUR PERSONAL LIVING. As long you are fruitful in the Spirit and in the work of God this year, God will command His blessings on your personal life, you just need to activate it by faith and appropriate work. You must be fruitful in your family, marital life, career, business, health, etc. You must realize the aspect you desire fruitfulness and take them to God in prayer. To be fruitful in our personal living his year, we need divine help from God, divine direction from God and taking the right steps at the right time by us.

MULTIPLY
“Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “…… multiply” Genesis 1:28

Before God commanded us to multiply, He had already blessed us with what it takes to multiply. In this year, the blessing and command of God for our lives, marriages, spiritual life, ministries, career, businesses, finance, etc. is to multiply. To multiply does not mean to just increase, but to increase in 100 folds.

God wants us to multiply in grace and strength for our Christian life, He wants us to multiply in evangelism, in soul winning and ministrations. God has also blessed and commanded us to multiply in good health, in finance, in our careers, in our workplaces and in our businesses.

Now, something we need to understand about the blessings and command of God for us to multiply as in Genesis 1:28. Multiple increases of God do not depend on the conditions or environment we are but on the supernatural might of God.

For us to experience multiple increases in our career, business or in finance general, we must follow the steps as God led Isaac in Genesis 26:

Genesis 26:1, there was a famine in the land. Multiple increases of God do not depend on the conditions or environment we are but on the supernatural might of God. Have faith in God and have no fear about the situation.

Genesis 26:2, God led Isaac. You need God’s leading that will land you in multiple increases. You need God’s direction and guidance. You must have a good relationship with God before He can direct you.

Genesis 26:12. Isaac sowed seed; it means acting or taking the right steps on God’s leading by faith.

Genesis 26:12 and Isaac reaped multiple increases.

FILL THE EARTH AND SUBDUE IT
“Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “……….. fill the earth and subdue it.” Genesis 1:28

This is another commanding blessing of God for us in this year. He said we must fill the earth with His glory, but before then we must fill the earth with the gospel of Jesus Christ. In any way we can do it, preach, share, post, text, print, sing, act, say, teach the Word of God. The more you involve in preaching the word of God this year, the more God will be perfecting your life. You know what? Whatever you have been waiting on the Lord for and not yet coming? For marriage, children, job, healing, admission, certificate, promotion, position, property, etc. just put it aside, stop worrying and start preaching and sharing he word of God on Facebook, Whatsapp, instagram, email, SMS, printing tracks, street film show, village evangelism, morning cry, neighborhood evangelism, workplace evangelism, school evangelism, radio evangelism, TV evangelism, etc.

When you occupy yourself with preaching and sharing the word of salvation and repentance, the Lord will settle you beyond your expectation. We must fill the earth with God’s word this year; it is a command of God for all His children.

“For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.” Habakkuk 2:14.

When we fill the earth with the knowledge of God, He will subdue the earth under our feet. The Lord will subdue forces of darkness before us, He will subdue principalities and power before us. The Lord will subdue oppositions, strangers and rivals before us.

But remember, this is not just a blessing from God but also a command, as God has subduing the forces of darkness and enemies in the spirit, we must also go ahead to subdue them in the physical. We must not be afraid or turn back. Don’t be afraid to run away from your territory, from your marriage, your ministry, your business, workplace before of the forces of darkness, the Lord has subdue them.

HAVE DOMINION
“Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “……. have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” Genesis 1:28

God has given us dominion and so we must retain and exercise it fully from this year.

Retaining Dominion in Christ
Immediately we give our lives to Jesus Christ, we have dominion over principalities and powers, but the devil would want to forfeit the dominion. We must not lose our dominion to Satan by going into sin. We can only retain our dominion by resisting the devil and refusing to fall into sin. When we commit sin we lose our dominion, but we must determine never to lose our dominion this year.

Exercising Dominion in Christ
Exercising dominion in Christ comes by commanding! We must command, not begging or pleading with devil, but command. Command what you don’t want to go and command what you want to come. In fact God commands us to command Him. “Thus says the Lord, The Holy One of Israel, and his Maker: “Ask Me of things to come concerning My sons; And concerning the work of My hands, you command Me.” Isaiah 45:11.

Brethren, in this year, we must be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth and subdue it and have dominion!

PRAYER POINTS
1, LORD, empower me to be fruitful in every area of my life this year
2, LORD, enable me to multiply greatly this year.
3, LORD, I receive your grace to fill the earth and subdue it, I will not fill the earth to be slave, I will not be suffering but subdue it and reign.
4, LORD, I take dominion this year
In JESUS NAME, Amen!

SUCCEEDING IN BUSINESS AND CAREER WITHOUT SIN OR STRESS. Part 2.

(This teaching started from Part 1 and we shared from Number 1 to 3, and we continue from Number 4 here. If you missed Part 1, just click on this link to read it https://web.facebook.com/revelationoftruthevangelicalministries.rtem/photos/a.244146345691743.45215.244086502364394/981660371940333/?type=3

4, GET DAILY INSPIRATION FROM GOD
Here is the truth you need to understand, if you want to succeed in your business or career to a global level, you need inspiration of God for decision-making and for innovation. Many people seek inspiration from Satan in their businesses and career. If you get your inspiration from Satan, it will not last and it will end with sorrow and eternal loss, but if you get inspiration from God, it will last and end with peace. Many things we are seeing today are not ordinary; many go to marine spirit to get innovation, to excel beyond others, only that it will end with sorrow.

There is a limit of inspiration for direction and innovation at our terrestrial level, but when we are connected to the supernatural inspiration of God like Daniel, we will excel beyond the ordinary, we will get perfect and divine direction from God, we will get the innovation which no eyes have seen, no ears have heard and which had never come to mind – that is divine direction that guarantee success, divine ideas and innovation for solution and benefits of humanity that will glorify God and become a financial blessing to you.

When it comes to succeeding in business or career, you need daily inspiration from God for two things: for direction and innovation. There are many ways that seems right in business, and you can’t afford to use your money and precious time to do trial and error. That is the reason many businesses and careers fail – wrong direction. To succeed in business, you need direction for the right product or service, the right place, the right people and the right price. You need the right decision-making daily. When you surrender everything to God without trusting in your wisdom, and then you seek God daily for direction in prayer and Word of God, you will not fail. I get direction from God for my business most time when I am doing praise and worship or reading Bible.

Early this year, I planned to go on a business trip to one of the countries in southern Africa, but as I committed everything to God’s hand for direction, He re-directed my way to a country in the West Africa. Can you imagine? Planning to go to the south but God directed me to the west. As we are rounding up the year now, we are reaping profit from both the west and south, but if I had traveled to the south, it would have been a big lost from both sides. Supernatural directions of God in business or career guarantee success and profit with safety.

Inspiration of God for innovation, it means to see ahead, to see beyond the physical like Daniel, it means God revealing hidden things, hidden solutions, secrets which will help you to excel in your business and career. Let me give you example of this from the Bible: David did not build the Temple of God in Jerusalem, but he made the planning for the building, what had never happened or existed before. Such a huge Temple was well designed, planned and demarcated without going to town planning school, architectural or building engineering school. And how could David have done that? It was by the inspiration of God for innovation. The Bible says, ““All this,” said David, “the LORD made me understand in writing, by His hand upon me, all the works of these plans.” 1 Chronicles 28:19. This is what we all need in our businesses and careers, bringing what never exist into existence through the divine inspiration of God for innovation. Amen!

Before we can get inspiration of God in our daily living, ministries of preaching, teaching, singing, drama, etc. or in business and career, we must first get connected to God in genuine salvation through repentance and forsaking our sins, a brand new life in Jesus you will never want miss or mess up with. When we seek first the kingdom of heaven, God will add all other things to it.
