Christianity Etc › Pastor Chris Oyakhilome Addresses The Whole Media Hype And Lies by Gombs(op):
those media houses with incompetent sources should take note and put in in their front pages o

"I understand that some media houses particularly in Nigeria and maybe in South Africa (i dont know) but there are some of them that have been writing some real stupiid things...real stupiid things, an errrrhh...frivolous charges...that's crazy.

A man of God...you have to understand something about a Man of God. A man of God is ot just someone who worships God or who preaches God. A man of God is directed by God, set on course by God. If you study the scriptures you will not find one Man of God going against God, sinning against God, the only thing you can find is a Man of God, maybe...in two different things
1. Moses for example, when he struck the rock twice, provoked by the anger of the people, not because he wanted to do something against the Lord. No Man of God does something against the Lord. Are you hearing me? No!...a Man of God is set on course, there is a type of life that he's been given, alright?

2. then you have a young man, a young prophet, he wasnt named, he was deceived by another Man of God, and so he went in the direction God says don't go. That's only the kind of thing you'd find about a Man of God when he misses the message of God or he acts beyond what God said. But a Man of God setting himself in defiance to the word of God and living like they (media houses) are writing those stupiid things that I did this, that i did that...You don't know what a Man of God is..I don't go in that direction..that's crazy.

I wasn't accused of those things you(media houses) said, nor did i commit those stupiid thing that you said...and i don't need to go to that level and such discussions. Jesus Christ was accused by many, with lots of frivolous charges. There would ALWAYS be those who'd like for it to be true, but you know, inspite of the accusations against Jesus, it didnt change who he was!

[size=16pt]There are preachers and there are Men of God[/size]. I'm not a preacher, I'm a Man of God...understand the difference. And I go in the way I'm asked to go, it may cause some troubles with individuals, but that's not because I've done something wrong.

And when it comes to Rev. Anita, what I'd say to you is pray for her, don't act like 'why why why is she....' . Married to a Man of God does not automatically make you Woman of God! You can make mistakes, but you know, people expects the wife of a Minister to definitely be at the level of the Minister, and so they ay be looked upon and the expectations maybe like that, but it's a positional thing! alright!

if a Man of God is married, it does not automatically mean the wife of the Man of God is therefore a Women of God! That's not how it is in the Bible. That's why you don't really find wives of Men of God listed in the bible. How many of them? Who was Peter's wife? Did you ever know her name? You'd never find out! Who was John's wife? Did you ever read the name? What about all the other apostles? How namy are registerd in the bible? You never find their names, why? Ask God when you find HIm! **Smiles

So, they are little things, don't try to make something big out of them, and emmm.. we're journeying, doing the things that God's called us to do...Christians should not have a divorce, it shouldn't be, but you see, that doesn't mean a Christian may not take the step. They may do it, but that doesn't make it right. And we shouldn't take one another to court, but when it happens, not because we wanna go there, someone is taking us there.

That's a problem, be wise, stay focused in the Word of God, and don't let those who want to feast on things like this including Christians. You know there are Christians who like things like this, they wanna make something big about it. You should only say those things that are from God, and become honorable in your speech, Alright! ...and judge nothing before the time...be wise, Glory to God

so we are going greater and greater and greater by the power of the living Christ. Hallelujah!So, we are not walking in sin and living in sin and hoping we can mix sin and righteousness together, NO!, we are the manifestations of His righteousness, we walk in that light only, and that's the way it's gonna be! Glory to God

Diligence: A Pathway To Greatness -Sunday, September 7th .
Pastor Chris

"The hand of the diligent will rule, but the slothful will be put to forced labor" (Proverbs 12:24 AMP).

Slothfulness is one of the antonyms of diligence. That means the one who isn’t diligent is slothful, and will of necessity live a hard life, while the diligent receives promotion. The New Living Translation puts it this way, “Work hard and become a leader; be lazy and become a slave.” It makes no difference what you do; if you work hard, you’ll be a leader and a champion. When it says, “Work hard,” it means to diligently do whatever is required to be done to achieve excellence in what you do.

The slothful ending up a slave doesn’t mean he’s going to be a slave to somebody else, but to a system. That means he’ll be hemmed-in in life—a slave of the system—whipped by the vagaries of life. The diligent, on the other hand, “will rule”; that means they shall have authority. If you’re a writer, a news correspondent, a journalist, a schoolteacher, a student, whatever it is you are, be diligent.

If you want to be successful in anything, whether it’s about gaining some more weight or shedding some thereof, or perhaps about your health or finances, diligence is what you need. Diligence means careful, persistent and determined actions to achieve a definite purpose.

Proverbs 22:29 says, “Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men.” The Lord is telling us that the diligent is not only going to stand tall among kings, he’s going to walk among them. Whether he becomes a king or not, he’s going to be known among kings. Isn’t that wonderful? You’re not going to be among obscure men when you’re diligent.

God cares about your life and what happens to you; He wants you to have excellent results in all that you do, that’s why He wants you to be diligent. You may have set goals for yourself in the area of your finances, health, spiritual or career development; pursue those goals with diligence. To fulfil God’s destiny for your life, you have to work on being diligent in every area of your life. Diligence is a pathway to greatness.

Prayer. ..
Dear Father, I thank you for granting me through your Spirit and through the effectual working of your Word in me, the discipline and ability to be diligent in all I do. Thank you for bringing me into places of influence and authority as I channel my energies into achieving excellence and perfection in all that I do, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Further Study:
Proverbs 12:24 AMP
The hand of the diligent will rule, but the slothful will be put to forced labor.

Romans 12:11
Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;

Christianity Etc › No Such Thing As Too Late by Gombs(op): 2:05am On Sep 06, 2014
If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. (Mark 9:23)

The story of Abraham and his wife Sarah is a perfect example that there’s no such thing as “too late” with God. The Bible says, against natural hope, Abraham believed in hope that he might be the father of many nations, according to the Word of God (Romans 4:18-21). He was about a hundred years old, while Sarah was ninety years (Genesis 17:17). Yet, God told Him he was going to have a child through Sarah. Abraham believed, and at the appointed time, Sarah brought forth Isaac. Some people often lose hope, wondering why they didn’t get the job, contracts, promotion or money for which they had prayed and fasted.

Some others gripe about the promises of God taking too long to be fulfilled in their lives. Well, both groups of people have one common problem: unbelief. The issue isn’t with God. He’s never late.

Consider the Lord Jesus: a message was sent to Him that His friend, Lazarus, was sick (John 11:3) and He promised to go over to see him. The Master waited four more days, until Lazarus died and was buried. It doesn’t get any more hopeless than that. Jesus had said Lazarus’ sickness wasn’t unto death (John 11:4), but he died. He had said He was coming but didn’t show up until four days later. When the Master eventually showed up, he requested to be taken to the grave of Lazarus, undaunted by the fact that he had been dead for four days. He instructed that the tombstone be rolled away and called out with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come forth!” The dead man came back to life (John 11:41-44).

It makes no difference how hopeless you might think your situation is; there’s no such thing as “too late” with God. Simply trust Him, for He’s the God who gives life to the dead, and calls things that don’t exist as though they already existed. He lives in eternity where there’s no past or future. With Him, everything is in the “NOW”; and He proves Himself Master over all circumstances, no matter how late, dead, or impossible they might seem in the eyes of men.

You think he cares about truth? No way Sir. He is somewhere monitoring if any new guest bar himself has visited his failed blog while he silently (silently because he doesn't pray out or believe in the spoken word) prays to God that the man of God is guilty. In his own words "Oh God please let this man be an adulterer or else I am finished for spreading a false story all because of my badbelle for this man".

Of course, such a prayer will not be heard in Heaven let alone answered so He will then deactivate the many accounts his has and will open a new one with the moniker "Dumberboy" which will only be apposite for who he has over time proven to be.

WinsomeX: My sentiments exactly.

Unfortunately the way God has so designed this scandal or revelation, Oyahkilome is going to really do himself in. If Anita had divorced him in Nigeria, the matter could easily be swept under carpet. But in the UK, its going to be messy.

If Oyakhilome will stick with the position in the OP, his wife will then be forced to provide evidence to support her claim for a divorce, adultery. Then it will all surface. Gombs will then find the evidence he is so scared of.

Oyakhilome best bet now, is simply to accept the accusation and split from Anita quietly. But that won't happens.

*grabs a popcorn and sits watching the Oyakhilome season film plat out*
Until then...can you turn down ur ecstatic delirium? grin

Make sure u and whoever accused him of adultery has enough evidence, maybe pay some girls around who'd start confessions grin, I can imagine being Pastor Chris' lawyer...If I were!

Ishilove: As in, you have been praying hard about this thing because it is causing severe pains for you. When you finally get to the hospital, the diagnosis comes out. It pinpoints the root cause of this thing that has been troubling. You had absolutely no idea that you had such a thing living inside you.
it doesn't matter the name of the diseases, so far it has a name, it is under the name of Jesus, one dont eed diagnosis for a name...just cast it out however! the problem is that most folks pray about a disease out of fear and not faith. they've read in the papers and net how many have died of the ailment and the survival rate is mnimal, they now turn to God for a miracle, ot in faith but fear!

James 1 TLB
6 But when you ask him, be sure that you really expect him to tell you, for a doubtful mind will be as unsettled as a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind; 7-8 and every decision you then make will be uncertain, as you turn first this way and then that. If you don’t ask with faith, don’t expect the Lord to give you any solid answer.


My take is the spirit wanted you to be aware of the problem. The worse kind of thing is when you have a problem which you are ignorant of. You see the symptoms, but don't know what is causing those symptoms.
you see the symptoms, don't wait for a name, use the Name that is above every name and dematerialize that symptom. Be conscious the greater one lives in you, He parted the red sea with a blast of His Nostrils, raised the dead, made water come out of dry rocks, made dry comes come back together, etc... He did these for you to know your line of ancestors...they were men of faith, they made God 'move', and these men had not the Holy Spirit in them, but we do...you see why ours is much more glorious?

Its like a thorn in the flesh thing. So what if at the height of this suffering imposed by this ailment, you distinctly and unmistakably sense the holy spirit directing you to go to a hospital?
like seriosly? undecided

2 chronicles 16 TLB
12 In the thirty-ninth year of his reign, Asa became seriously diseased in his feet, but he didn’t go to the Lord with the problem but to the doctors. 13 So he died in the forty-first year of his reign ...


relate the above bold with the above red! Why would a healer direct you to a hospital when He can Heal u? If you could hear Him say to you "go to the Hospital" "why didn't you hear Him say "by Jesus' stripes you were (past tense) healed"

1 Peter 2:24
English Standard Version
He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed.


At the hospital you get a shocker, you are diagnosed of an ailment you had no idea you lived with. Then the holy spirit directs you to go the trado way. What do you do then? Does it mean you have no faith in Gods healing power?
azzin the Holy Spirit be gisting you these? He never acts outside the Word, if you did hear him then u must be aware of the supernatural...ad the healing power in the name of Jesus

Ishilove: What of if you discovered you had an ailment that was already actively at work in you for years, before you knew of your power in Christ? What do you do? Do you still cast it out or you go with faith and medicine?
Simple, i just got to find out that Jesus has healed me many years ago, ad maybe i've had cancer for years before i knew Christ and His resurrected power, i just lay my hands on that part of the body and declare, "Father inthe name of Jesus, i command everything not of you in my body to be gone from me and return no more, for i am a new creation, and old things are passed away, all things are new"

then in faith i refuse to acknowledge it's presece, for as far as am concerned, i'm healed... that's why the bible said "see, all things are now new". it didnt say, "feel all things are now new" because your natural senses are subject to the flesh except you subdue it by the Spirit.

17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; [size=16pt]behold[/size], all [/u]things are become new.

18 [u]And all things are of God,
who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;


it say SEE all things are new.. it's so important we see it, if not, we cant have it. in the world the say seeing is believing, in Christ believing is seeing. then it says ALL things are from God, same ALL things are become new


but if one wants to keep taking the drugs and eventually die of the disease, fine! it's all choice smiley smiley
Christianity Etc › Adultery Allegation Is A Distortion Of Facts: Oyakhilome's Lawyer Kemi Pinheiro by Gombs(op): 9:26am On Sep 05, 2014
The founder of Christ Embassy, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, has denied the allegation of adultery in the divorce suit between him and his wife, Anita.

His counsel, Kemi Pinheiro (SAN), described the allegation as “wicked and malicious”, saying it was intended to bring his person and the church “to public opprobrium and ridicule.”

Pinheiro, in a statement yesterday said the adultery allegation “currently circulating in the media is nothing but a complete distortion of facts in the pending proceedings in the United Kingdom.”

The statement advised media establishments to verify the authenticity of their stories before publication, saying unless they desist from making such further publications, they would take appropriate legal actions against them to protect Oyakhilome’s reputation and that of the church.

The statement titled: “In the matter of malicious falsehood against Rev. Chris Oyakhilome and the Christ Embassy Church” said: “The attention of our client, Rev. Chris Oyakhilome and the church, the Christ Embassy, has been drawn to the wave of false, malicious and fabricated stories being published in the print and electronic media about [size=16pt]his person, the church and a matrimonial cause between him and his wife.
[/size]
“Our client is seriously concerned that under the guise of reporting a divorce proceeding involving him, publishers resorted to an unjustified and malicious attack on his reputation for reasons not unconnected with the respective publishers’ selfish motives of prospect of materials and financial advantage attendant to the wide circulation their distorted and fabricated stories would enjoy.

“The publishers decided to fabricate facts including (but not limited) to allegation of adultery against our client, with the wicked and malicious intention of bringing his person and the church to public opprobrium and ridicule.

“It is our client’s instructions to inform the public and particularly warn the concerned media houses that the news or story circulating in the media is nothing but a complete distortion of the facts in the pending proceedings in the United Kingdom, to the knowledge of the publishers.

Ishilove: God works in a variety of ways. Can one have faith that God can use medicine, like white and traditional medicine for healing? He can use medicine to heal us, right?
yo! he created em herbs for our healing,it was i His plans from day one! He is i no way against medicines. But there is a higher life, where u know you can't be held down by sickness, u cast it out fast! (That's if they even come).

i for example, can't remember when last i fell ill, but i do get symptoms of Malaria, Typhoid, sometimes as little as heat rash or pimple...the moment i see them manifesting, i simply cast em out! and believe me, they die away faster than they came! Why? Because i've come to the understanding that divinity is active in me, fully aware that that same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead is in my mortal body.. This is what Christ died for, to raise new creations higher than any circumstance and situations in life, sickness ad diseases included.

HEBREWS 4:2
2 For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, NOT BEING MIXED WITH FAITH in them that heard it.


In other words, if we need healing, our faith has something to do with receiving healing from God, because God’s Word will always work when we act on it in faith. Just because someone failed to receive healing doesn’t change the fact that healing belongs to us and that it’s God’s will that we walk in divine health.

Many times we don’t understand why some good Christian people become sick and, instead of receiving healing, they die and go on to be with the Lord. We may not understand why things happen as they do, but a lack of understanding on our part does not discredit the Word of God. The Word says, “Believe you receive and you shall have” (Mark 11:24).

Regardless of what happens with other people and regardless of what is going on in our physical body, we must continue to have faith in our God because He is faithful. He is faithful to keep His promises and to perform His Word in our life. He is faithful to be Jehovah Rapha—“the God who healeth thee.”

the end!

Commended To The Word-Friday, September 5th

Pastor Chris

And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified (Acts 20:32).

The Apostle Paul couldn’t think of a better way to bless the brethren at Ephesus than to commend them to the Word of God. As Christians, we’re born of the Word (1 Peter 2:23); the Word gave birth to us; therefore, our lives can only be built and sustained by the Word. From the moment you made Jesus the Lord of your life, the building process began; the Word builds you spiritually, mentally, physically, financially, and in all areas of life.

Furthermore, the Word is able to "give" you an inheritance among all those that are sanctified. This is quite an interesting thought. The Spirit of God, through the Apostle Paul, wrote this to the Church. Why would He say this to Christians who already have an inheritance in Christ Jesus? First, understand that He wasn’t talking about the ownership of the inheritance; rather, he was talking about the inheritance being delivered into your hands.

For example, you might be the rightful owner of an inheritance, e.g., a landed property, and never be able to get into it, perhaps because of litigations due to difficult individuals claiming ownership of the same property. In the same way, though all things are legally yours in Christ Jesus, there’re rebel holders of authority—Satan and his cohorts—who often try to sway God’s people from enjoying their inheritance. The Word of God is able to literally deliver your inheritance into your hands, to enjoy, irrespective of the activities of the adversary.

If you’d constantly meditate on the Word, not only will you be built for success, excellence and the victorious life, the Word will also deliver into your hands that which is rightfully yours in Christ. So, open up your appetite for the Word. Bombard your mind with Scriptures until you’re completely inundated, and you’re configured to think from the Word’s perspective only.

Prayer...
 Dear Father, with faith, meekness, and gladness, I receive your engrafted Word, which is able to build me up and deliver unto me what rightfully belongs to me in Christ. Your Word is effectual in me today, producing in me what it talks about, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Further Study: 
James 1:21[KJV] Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.

1 Timothy 4:15-16
15 Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all.
16 Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.

EXODUS 15:26
26 . . . If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put [permit] none of these disease upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I AM THE LORD THAT HEALETH THEE.


In Exodus 15:26, God established a statute of healing for His people. Nowhere in the Bible does it say that this statute of divine healing has been revoked, changed, or altered. In fact, Malachi 3:6 says, “. . . I am the Lord, I change not. . . .” The Lord has never changed His mind or His will concerning the statute of divine healing.

BelieveWhen God makes a covenant, or an agreement with His people, He abides by that covenant until it is revoked, stopped, or superseded by a better one. Therefore, since healing is also found in the New Testament, we know that God’s healing covenant is still in force today. Actually, because of the redemptive work of Christ, the Bible says that we have a better covenant than the Israelites had, established upon better promises (Heb. 8:6)!

“Yes, but I know someone who was prayed for and didn’t get healed,” you hear people say. But just because someone fails to receive healing doesn’t mean the Word of God is false or that God’s covenant of healing is not in force today. I don’t know why some people receive their healing and others do not. However, I do know that a person must mix faith with the Word in order to receive healing or any blessing or promise from God.

Making Your Way Prosperous-Thursday, September 4th.

This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night,…for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success (Joshua 1:8 ).

The Lord is interested in your prosperity, and He shows in our opening verse how you can make your way prosperous and have good success. It’s by meditating on the Word and observing to do what it says. Observe again what the Word says; first, it says, “…but thou shalt meditate therein day and night…” showing you that it’s your responsibility to meditate; not the Lord’s.

Secondly, it concludes by saying, “thou shalt make thy way prosperous….” This also shows that you’re the one, not God, that’ll make your way prosperous. God’s responsibility is to give you the recipe for prosperity, success and the good life, and He already did that through His Word. Now, you’re to use the Word to make your life glorious. Yes, you can, because you’re a child of God. You’re made in His image; you belong in His class. You have His creative ability; therefore, create your victorious life, using the material He’s made available to you for that: His Word.

Remember, you being created in the likeness of God means He made you to function like Him; and how does God function? He functions by faith. Jesus said in Mark 11:22, “...Have the God-kind of faith.” So, God is the God of faith; He created the whole world through words. As you study the account in Genesis chapter one, you’d observe that before He spoke creation into being, He first had moments of meditation. The Bible says the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. However, the Spirit of God “brooded” upon the face of the waters (Genesis 1:2). That was meditation.

Afterwards, He began to say, “Let there be…,” and everything He said came into being. This is the same principle and power He’s given you to create your prosperous and victorious life. It’s up to you to meditate on the Word: think, talk, and roar the Word in every situation, and watch yourself prosper and deal excellently in life.

Prayer. ...
Dear Father, I thank you for making me in your image and likeness, and for the ability you’ve given me to recreate my world and make my life the epitome of your grace. I’m constantly transformed from glory to glory, and my greatness is evident because of the power of your Word in my life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Further Study :
Psalms 35:27
Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the Lord be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.

1 Timothy 4:15
Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all.
