The Knowledge That Makes Us Masters · Friday, November 1st

Pastor Chris

For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding (Colossians 1:9).


In the opening verse above, the Apostle Paul specifically prayed for the Colossian brethren to be filled with the full knowledge of God’s will. This was the knowledge of God that Paul had, and lived by; which made him extraordinary and distinguished him among the Apostles. It’s the knowledge that makes us masters. It puts you over in life.

In Christ, we’re ordained of God to live as champions and reign as kings in life. The reason this hasn’t been the experience of many is that they haven’t learnt to walk in the knowledge of God’s will. Romans 12:2 tells us about the good, the acceptable, and the perfect will of God: "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."

The ultimate is walking in God’s perfect will; but that only builds from having fellowship with the Holy Spirit. As you fellowship with Him through prayer, study of the Word and meditation, you’ll know His perfect will, intent and purposes. Through that intimacy, you’ll become more like Him; united with Him in thought and character.

You become a consistent victor when you function with the full and exact knowledge of His perfect will for your life. You’ll always know what to do in every situation; all your efforts and resources will constantly be channelled in the right direction to achieve the right results. You can know and live in His perfect will.

Prayer

Dear Father, thank you for guiding me through your Word, and the Holy Spirit, to know and walk in your perfect will for me. I’m filled with your wisdom to overcome every challenge I may face, and to do excellently in all my endeavours, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Just like how Goshen said I and Jo are same


And BTW it still doesn't change d fact dat Kunle, had multiple IDs na

I cancelled the above o!

highyo: One thing I believe, any songs not dedicated to God, cannot be used glorify him
I read a testimony of Ubani Kingsley when the lord and his angel visited him, he said his house was stinking. But kingsley said, there is nothing bad in my house. But Jesus insisted that the bad smell was coming from his tv side. Then he send one of his angel to confirm, then he brought

1. Wrestling
2, Clash of the titans
3. Some Christians music
4. Some igbo movie etc


[s] the question here is why Jesus brings out christains music as stinking items?
He said the music was not dedicated to him, and whenever you sing or play it, the demon the music is dedicated to will take over the life of the singer and holyspirit cannot stay in the stinking area [/s]

Renew your mind bro!
At your green words above

A lady got a miracle from listening to Timaya's song, a line that said "na papa God go do am, just they pray dey thank God...even if people dey talk, no mind them bla bla bla"


She held those words in faith n got her miracle...now I ask you, what made the difference? The faith of the woman (the hearer) did, timaya might have sang that song to sell a cd, without really referencing God or with even no evidence of Holyspirit in him...but the woman who sang same in faith got a change.

Hian!...I'm not saying we should patronize Timaya, wiz kid em em davido and d rest o!

From your green words above, All I'll say is what Paul said here
Phil 1v18

New International Version
But what does it matter? The important thing is that
in every way, whether from false motives or true,
Christ is preached. And because of this I rejoice. Yes,
and I will continue to rejoice,

New Living Translation
But that doesn't matter. Whether their motives are
false or genuine, the message about Christ is being
preached either way, so I rejoice. And I will continue
to rejoice.

English Standard Version
What then? Only that in every way, whether in
pretense or in truth, Christ is proclaimed, and in that I
rejoice. Yes, and I will rejoice,

King James Bible
What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in
pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein
do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice.


Also, I'm not saying all song we sing are scripturally right...for example this song is wrong

" We are matching to Ziooooooon, wonderful beautiful city of God etc etc "

Why??
Because Heb 12 v22 declared that we are already in Zion, not matching to Zion

And many other songs

Be Continually Filled With The Spirit · Thursday, October 31st ·

Pastor Chris

And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit (Ephesians 5:18).


Our opening verse in the original Greek rendering is expressed in present continuous language. This means, for you to be effective in your Christian walk and live the transcendent life in Christ to the full, you have to be continually filled with the Spirit—not just for one day—but always. Praying in tongues is very beneficial in this regard; you can pray in tongues anytime you want to, and be filled with the Spirit. It’s not difficult at all to be continually filled with the Spirit.

The Word of God shows us in the ensuing verses, right after our opening verse, how to experience this constant infilling of the Holy Spirit. It’s by "Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord" (Ephesians 5:19). Notice it didn’t say, "…speaking to one another…"; when it says "speaking to yourselves…" it means each of us speaking to himself.

For example, when you say "The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want; the Lord is the strength of my life, of whom shall I be afraid? Greater is He that is in me, than he that is in the world!" That’s you speaking the Word to yourself; edifying yourself with the Word of God. Speaking the Word to yourself in this manner is one of the ways to get yourself continually filled with the Spirit.

Secondly, it says, "...Singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord...." This refers to singing in the spirit; making spiritual melodies in your heart to the Lord. It doesn’t have to be melodious to anyone else; you just go on singing in the spirit, all by yourself. Next, it says, "Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ." That means you give thanks to God for all He’s done for you; you testify of His wondrous works in your life, thanking Him for His love, kindness, grace, mercy, and glory in your life! You can also minister to others as in Colossians 3:16: "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord."

Consciously practice these, and get yourself continually filled with the Spirit, for an all-day, alltime life of victory and dominion through the Holy Ghost!

Prayer
Blessed heavenly Father, I exalt and worship you for your great love, grace and power in my life! Thank you for bringing me into a life of peace and joy in the Holy Ghost! To you be all glory and dominion forever, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Live Joyfully… Everyday · Wednesday, October 30th ·

Pastor Chris

Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms (James 5:13).


There’re many who, instead of enjoying their lives every day are worried and weighed down by the cares of this life. The Lord Jesus, in Matthew 6:25, enjoins us not to live that kind of life: "Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?" (Matthew 6:25).

The Spirit of God, through the Apostle Paul reiterated a similar thought in Philippians 4:6: "Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God." You must decide to live joyfully and happily every day; it’s a choice you have to make. Never find yourself sad, depressed or discouraged, irrespective of what happens around you.

God doesn’t have the responsibility of making you happy or joyful. What He did was to put joy in your spirit. Joy is a characteristic fruit of your recreated human spirit (Galatians 5:22), but it’s up to you to live joyfully. No one but you, in the whole world, has the responsibility of making you joyful.

Living joyfully has nothing to do with what’s happening to you or around you, or what others say or do to you. It’s got nothing to do with your experiences either; you can be joyful in the midst of trouble. James 1:2 says count it all joy when you go through diverse troubles. In other words, don’t be moved by adverse circumstances; remain thankful and exuberant with joy, knowing that you’re more than a conqueror.

Confession

Dear Father, I thank you for your overflowing springs of joy that emanate from the innermost part of my being. Irrespective of the situations and circumstances, I rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory, knowing that all things work together for my good! Halleluiah!

My friend, flesh and blood did not reveal that to you.

Actually, there is a level in God where you live in the supernatural daily n always. You cn achieve that by studying the word, speaking in tongues and meditation of the word.

That's the level Jesus wants us all to be. We are gods.

That his math equation makes sense to me tho, (four years in math dept aint beans)...so, I couldn't agree less with the above bold. Be nice and apologize.

Just a lil modification needed, that 'd' in the equation is constant 0 provided TS backlogs is in its minimum.

Now M = I + d
From situations, backlogs are much...owerri folks, meaning 'd' is altered and we therefore take Exponents of owerri TS hopefuls, that give us the actual value of d

Now, if you don't get d postulate above, you dnt have to call it nonsense

Be Inspired To Pray For Others · Tuesday, October 29th ·

Pastor Chris

I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men (1 Timothy 2:1).


There’s enough power in you to turn any situation around in your favour; you can change anything through prayer, because the divine power necessary to cause that change is already inside you (Acts 1:.

I remember the testimony of a young girl who was retarded and bedridden due to juvenile arthritis. She could only move around in a wheelchair, and the only part of her body that she could move was her neck, as the disease had stiffened her whole body.

She was taken to a miracle service, and while in that meeting, she wept and called on the Lord to help her. Some others saw her and began to pray for her too. As they interceded for her, she asked the lady beside her to help her up. Though her hands and legs felt heavy and painful, she managed to stand up. As others prayed for her, the lady encouraged her and said, "Don’t worry, go ahead and move your hands and legs. The Lord has healed you."

Although it was difficult for her to move, she was encouraged by the faith of those who were praying for her and began to take her steps. They all erupted in praise to the Lord as she took another step, and then another one, and right before their eyes, she began to run around the room! That happened just because those believers around her were moved by compassion to pray for her.

There’s so much we can do and change in the lives of others if we’d intercede for them. There’re many who are going through a lot of hurt for whom we must pray. The Bible says of the Lord Jesus that He’s touched with the feeling of our infirmities (Hebrews 4:15). Be moved by the conditions of the sinners and others who are suffering around you. Let the plight of the poor, the sick, and the downtrodden stir compassion in you to intercede for them and cause a change in their lives today.

Prayer  

I pray today for all who are suffering; especially little children, who are sick, displaced, hurting or experiencing any form of pain, that by your Spirit, and through the ministry of angels, help, succour and comfort will come to them. I pray that the faith, courage, and strength they need to come out victorious be ministered to them in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Sir. Jesus' mission on earth was NOT to give men
joy. It was to save his people from their sins.

Berreta said Jesus gives joy, you objected and you used the key word NOT as above..with block letters
..Then you gave a reason why he came in the 2nd sentence.

Now you explaining an entirely diff tin above with this lame excuse "please read my post again for clarification. My point is" ...why can't you just admit your choice of words were WRONG?

And BTW,

It is only when people repent of their sins that they
will find true joy in christ Jesus.

This is what Tpia has been saying since page1.

Joshthefirst: ma'am. Jesus' mission on earth was NOT to give men joy. t was to save his people from their sins. If anyone recieves jesus primarily because he wants to have a happy peaceful life, he will not receive anything or last long. He will most probably end up worse that he was before.
Jesus came so we won't have to die in sin. He came to save from wrath and judgement and guilt.
When we realize that the wages of sin is death, and look for and receive salvation from our just punishment, then we are truly filled with joy, for we are those who were acquitted and given life on anothers love and account. That is true joy. That is true peace. One must receive Jesus to be saved from the punishment of his sins; death.
I hope this helps ma'am
Have a wonderful evening.

Fat lie!!

Singing my favorite Christmas Song

" Joy to the world, the Lord is come! Let earth receive her King; Let every heart prepare Him room, And Heaven
and ...


Ever wonder why He is called, the Joy of the whole world?

If his mission was not to give men joy, was his mission to give anguish? The word Gospel means 'good news', abeg Jesus brought Good news, if some one brings good news to you, is it not same as he brought joy to you?

*dont ask me what was d good news Christ brought

What Do You Want? · Monday, October 28th ·

Pastor Anita

And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it (John 14:13-14).


Only someone with unlimited power could make a statement such as the one above. Jesus said, if you ask anything in His Name, He’d do it; irrespective of what it is! As long as it’s something that’s good for you and good for God, you can ask and it’ll be granted you. In Jeremiah 32:27 the Lord said, "Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh: is there anything too hard for me?" He’s the Big Boss; He owns everything; and He’s saying to you today: "Ask what you will, and it shall be done unto you."

Some people say, "We should never ask God for the things we want; God only grants our needs, not our wants." But the Lord says, "…if ye shall ask anything." This certainly doesn’t refer to asking for "your needs." In fact, you’re not supposed to ask for your needs because they’re already catered for by your heavenly Father. The Bible says He’s the One who takes care of the sparrows, and the lilies of the field. If He would cater for the birds and flowers, how much more will He take care of you, His beloved child (read Matthew 6:31-32 AMP).

Religion has cheated many and deceived them to thinking they’d have to ask for their needs! Paul said, "But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:19). Paul wasn’t making a promise to the Church on God’s behalf; he had come to know God’s ways of doing things: He supplies not just some but ALL our needs! Therefore, when you recognize a need, you don’t need to pray, "Oh God, I need such-and-such"; just declare that you have it in the Name of Jesus.

As the seed of Abraham, you deserve to have the best things in life; there’s no reason for you to be in lack or to envy others over what they have. You can have anything you want. Nothing is too good for you. Be bold to ask what you want in His Name, and receive, that your joy may be full (John 16:24).

Confession  The Lord is my Shepherd, therefore I do not lack. I’m walking in the light of my prosperity today, for I’m the seed of Abraham; I have access to wealth untold; I’m supply conscious! I have all my needs met, because I’m plugged to God’s unending supply.

Prepare For The Lord’s Coming · Sunday, October 27th ·

Pastor Chris

...And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; Which also said… this same Jesus, which is taken up
from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven (Acts 1:9-11).

While the disciples stood gazing in awe as Jesus ascended into heaven, two angels appeared to them and said, "…This same Jesus, who has been received from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven" (Acts1:11). This is so important; Jesus is coming again. This is the reason we’re preaching the Gospel around the world; the whole world needs to know that the Master is coming soon.

Jesus said in John 14:3, "…I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also." It’s your responsibility to prepare for His coming. If you’re born again you’re assured that at His coming the Master would receive you to Himself. However, the one without Christ would face eternal condemnation. If you’re
reading this today, and you’re yet to make Jesus the Lord of your life, do so right away! Say, "Lord Jesus, I ask that you come into my heart to be the Lord of my life, from this day onward."

The Apostle Peter alluding to the day of the Lord and the events that’ll herald His coming said, "But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness" (2 Peter 3:10-11).

In everything you do, don’t lose focus of that day; live everyday as one who’s expecting the Master; carry that consciousness in your heart at all times. While you’re getting yourself ready, you’re to help those around you get ready, and be prepared as well, for the coming of the Lord.

Confession
Christ has been made unto me wisdom and that wisdom causes me to walk in the will of God, and fulfill my destiny in Christ. I’m walking worthy of the Lord, pleasing Him in all things as I joyfully anticipate His soon return. Amen.

Confessions Based On Revelation · Saturday, October 26th ·

Pastor Chris

Therefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Christ Jesus (Hebrews 3:1 NKJV).


When we talk about "confessing" or speaking in conformity with the Word of God, it’s not mere "positive talking" or a formula for getting God to do something. That’s not what the Word teaches. "Confession" is from the Greek word, "Homologia," and it means ‘speaking the same thing in consent or agreement.’ It means to declare openly, by way of speaking out freely, your deep convictions based on what God has said.

Hebrews 13:5-6 says, "…for he hath said…So that we may boldly say…." Therefore, confession is the proclamation of that which God has said: declaring words that are consistent with His provisions, plans, and purposes. Your confessions must be based on the revelation of the Word of God. This isn’t the same as the person who for example, feels pain in the stomach, and says, "I don’t have stomach pain…"; that’s not confession. The idea of confession isn’t that you deny facts, or that you say, "I’m healed," so that you’d be healed; no. Rather, when you say, "I’m healed," it’s founded on the truth that you know from the Word of God that you have the life of God in you! You have the present-hour consciousness that the same Spirit that raised up Christ from the dead, dwells in you, and vitalizes your mortal body; therefore you’re speaking on the basis of that revelation.

This explains why some people don’t get the right results even though they’ve been making "positive confessions" as it seems. We don’t "confess" the Word so that something will happen; we speak the truth. We tell it as the Word says; you declare that which already belongs to you in Christ, and not what you’re trying to get. Right now, declare God’s Word concerning your life, family, finances and ministry.

Confession  Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. I’m reigning in life through Jesus Christ, making progress and moving forward; I’m heaping success upon success. I’m not of this world; therefore I’m immune to the negativities and vagaries of the natural world. Glory to God!

Eph 1:7
'In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace:'

The blood redeemed you from the slave market of sin because that is the only thing we couldn't get by our efforts. Every other thing is gettable by human effort. Man has being equipped for that. You don't need to be a Christian to have the goodies of life.

Any body, whether good or bad, atheist or Muslim, sane or insane can get money, health etc. Even witch doctors claim to perform deliverance from powers of darkness for people but SALVATION CANNOT be obtained outside the blood of Christ.

My bro, that is what the blood is for. Remission of sins.

As simple as ABC. why is this difficult to get in?

Bidam: And what is exactly wrong with the prayer point you asked me to outline? I even went as far as given you valid scriptures on it.

You didn't show any scripture highlighting 'pleading the blood'.

Anyways, I rest my case.

nlMediator, I will not argue with you


Folks that view this page can deduce the truth for themselves by the holyspirit.


Cheers

Bidam: "Father, i confess our ( i.e self,immediate family,household,etc) sins, so clean with the blood" ( to cover the multitude of sins,1 pet.4:7-8,keep the commandment without spot,1 tim,6:14: and edify ourselves in love,Eph.4:15;1Jn.5:16).

Is this what you call 'pleading the blood?'

Why don't you simply say "father forgive my trespasses/sin which I've committed knowingly or unknowingly, direct or indirect, through thoughts and through deeds, I obtain/receive mercy for my sins, in Jesus' name." Amen

Now at the bold above, God forgives that sin for Christ's sake (for that blood he shed, that blood on the mercy seat). It's not like there is a literal/practical cleaning or washing of the heart (to wipe away d sin) by God or Jesus.
