Wonderful theme...wishing daddy Go and all redeemed members a glorious convention. It's a reminder that this earth isn't our final home and we should be ready for the Rapture. Although we will live forever on a new earth created by God. |
David0002:My addiction to pornography started when I discovered porn magazines in my early teens under my brother's bed! From there I graduated to watching CDs AND DVDs before it became fully blown on the internet. Although I am no addicted to porn, I paid dearly for all the years I wasted on those accursed materials! |
helinues:While it's true that faith without works is dead, the same Bible says this kind goeth out by nothing but prayer and fasting. There should be a balance between faith and works, but the spiritual realm is more deeper than we can ever imagine. |
Too many women take their pastors as demi gods! True, but a woman shouldn't respect her pastor more than her husband who is her head. |
yemmit90:What's the difference between masturbation and fornication?? You should have said marriage is the solution. Strangely, though, some married couples still masturbate. So self discipline and deliverance are the major keys to stopping it. |
📖 Genesis 22 ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¹ And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am. ² And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of. We all know the story of how God tested Abraham's faith. After waiting for so many years, Abraham finally received his son of promise: ISAAC. It was indeed a very joyful occasion because both Abraham and his wife Sarah were advanced in years. Seeing an aged barren woman like Sarah with her newborn child sparked up wonder and excitement among their neighbors, friends and acquaintances. It was indeed a special miracle from God! As the child Isaac grew in maturity, Abraham excitedly looked forward to the fulfillment of God's promise concerning him. God had previously promised Abraham that through this same Isaac_all nations of the world, like the sand of the seashore, would be blessed. However, one fateful day, God greatly shook Abraham's faith to its core: God clearly instructed him to offer up Isaac as a burnt Offering! Abraham was puzzled, but in his usual calm manner, he didn't question or query God. Several thoughts flashed through his mind as he pondered: But why didn't the Almighty just ask for a ram or sheep? Why my only son Isaac? At that critically tense time, had Abraham chosen to disobey God, he would have missed out on his double_portion blessings! Abraham out of very great and rare faith, went ahead in obedience to God to sacrifice his hier: 📖 Hebrews 11 ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¹⁷ By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, ¹⁸ Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called: ¹⁹ Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure. Abraham believed that God was able to raise Isaac again from the ashes after he had sacrificed him! Oh, what GREAT faith! It was indeed great faith, because prior to that time, there wasn't nothing like ressurection from the dead. God was so pleased with Abraham's extraordinary faith that He renewed His covenant with Abraham: 📖 Genesis 22 ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¹⁶ And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son: ¹⁷ That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies; ¹⁸ And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice. Dear readers, if our faith was so tested today like Abraham's, what would we have done? The sad truth is that most of us today would have failed woefully if our faith were so tested like Abraham's. Jesus said this about the last days: 📖...Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, SHALL HE FIND FAITH ON THE EARTH? — Luke 18:8 It's a vital sign of the end times; many will lack faith in God because of economic pressures, sinful pleasures and worldly distractions. Because of technological advancement, many people's faith in God today are at an all time low⬇️. Yes many go to church with their bibles, but how much time do they spend reading it? Most bibles we see in church on Sunday are ignored and dusty during the week. Remember, that God's Word is the ultimate source of faith (Romans 10:17). A lot of modern Christians are obsessed with sports, social media, travel, entertainment, love relationships, food, money, businesses etc. But not many spend quality time developing themselves spiritually by reading/hearing God's Word. The truth is whether we read our bibles or not, our faith will be tested like Abraham's. Not exactly the same way however. But the higher ⬆️ you go in faith, the higher the tests. Why does God test our faith? Why does He permit us occasionally to go through the most difficult, unexplainable circumstances? Remember the trial of faith situations both Job and Peter passed through? (Job: 1:9-12, Luke 22:31-22) The devil accused both of them before God that they will lose their faith if tested. It's still applicable to us today. However God permits our faith to be tested so He can bless us mightily like He blessed Job. The greater your faith tests, the greater your blessings! (Job 42:12-15) 👉 Summary of life I have discovered that life itself is simply an examination of your faith in God_nothing more or less! Nothing is too hard or impossible with God! And your faith is the trigger to His infinite presence and power! God requires that we have EVER_INCREASING FAITH in Him so He can do greater things for us. One way He does this is by testing our faith with very difficult situations! If your faith is been tested in a fiery🔥way like Abraham's, don't dispair, God wants to bless you powerfully! Spend quality time with God in His Word, fasting, praying and praising! 📖That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ. — 1 Peter 1:7

A big congratulations to MFM and Dr Olukoya! Dr Olukoya was formally a choir master! |
This is nothing but artificial beauty forced on a minor ![]() |
Commanderinpips:It's not that I think, it was revealed to me TWICE! Anyways, to be forewarned is to be forearmed. |
PissInside:👍 |
obonujoker:Several months back I had a revelation of him as ruler.... and it scared me to bits. That's all I can say. |
While there is nothing wrong in bringing a bottle of beer to church as long you don't drink it ![]() If it's a purely prophetic direction, it's OK with me. Although alcohol is forbidden in the Bible. |
Righteousness2:The "real" US president has indeed spoken. And this real US president is on standby waiting to resume office on a global scale in the nearest future. If You know, you know. |
nlfpmod:Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely. We are just lucky that we are in democracy where we have some freedom of speech than in a dictatorship. |
This is more than luck, this is grace! |
BABANGBALI: ![]() |
It's amazing how some celebrities on SM claim the shooting as staged.... What?!! However, the ease at which the sniper shot at at former president DT is very questionable and the Biden administration owes explanation for this. |
I was rooting for England to win on Sunday, but alas, Spain was clearly the best team in the last euros. All the same, Gareth southgate will be long remembered for bringing the three lions so close to glory 🙌 |
fineboynl:Immediately he shot, Donald's head moved.... Less than a second reaction. So it really wasn't about amateurisim. |
God definitely has more plans for Donald trump's life.... He could have been wasted in a flash! Never doubt the power of God! |
Spain deserves to win the cup as they have won all their matches and have played the most exciting football..... However, the three lions look destined to win as they have the most talented team and a strong bench. My heart says England but my mind says spain. |
ruggedtimi:"sorry honey, I forgot to duck" That was Ronald regan's apology to his wife for getting shot by a crazy fella 😁 |
President Kennedy was wasted by a sniper... Donald trump was divinely protected from a sniper! |
📖 Psalms 105 ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¹⁷ He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was sold for a servant: ¹⁸ Whose feet they hurt with fetters: he was laid in iron: ¹⁹ Until the time that his word came: the word of the LORD tried him. ²⁰ The king sent and loosed him; even the ruler of the people, and let him go free. ²¹ He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his substance: ²² To bind his princes at his pleasure; and teach his senators wisdom. Joseph was the 11th son of Israel and was his most beloved. Out of envy, his brothers sold him off as a slave to the Ishmaelites who in return sold him to Potiphar, an official of Pharoah. In Potiphar's house, Joseph shone as a star as everything he did prospered and God blessed Potiphar's house because of him. As a result of his strong, handsome appearance, Potiphar's wife cast flirtatious eyes on him and proposed an adulterous relationship. It wasn't as if Mrs Potiphar wasn't attractive, but Joseph declined because he feared God and besides why would he betray the trust of Potiphar who had entrusted all his household to him? Potiphar's wife refused to reason with Joseph and pressurized him daily but he kept on rejecting her advances. As a scorned woman, Potiphar's wife maliciously set up Joseph for attempted rape. This false report greatly angered Potiphar who put Joseph in prison. However, God promoted Joseph from the prison to the palace as he interpreted Pharaoh's dreams and became second in command of Egypt. Now the question is, what if Joseph had yielded under pressure and had slept with Potiphar's wife? 📖 Genesis 45 ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ⁵ Now therefore be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that ye sold me hither: for God did send me before you to preserve life. ⁶ For these two years hath the famine been in the land: and yet there are five years, in the which there shall neither be earing nor harvest. ⁷ And God sent me before you to preserve you a posterity in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance. Had Joseph slept with Potiphar'wife, the covenant people of God, the Israelites would have gone into extinction! They would all have died and thus ending the promises of God to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Joseph's destiny was to preserve the lives of the Israelites (and the entire human race) from the great worldwide famine. But if he had committed sexual immorality, he clearly wouldn't have been able to fulfill his great destiny. Three vital lessons: 👉The devil often uses sexual sins to divert great people away from their great destinies. Today, an amazing number of people - (including nations!) have lost their glorious destinies because of sexual sins: masturbation, fornication, adultery, etc. This is a vital reason why the internet is so full of pornography and casual sex is so cheap. 👉 If you don't fulfill your destiny because of sexual sins, it will negatively affect many other people whose destinies are connected to yours and you will give account to God for them. Had Joseph not fulfilled his destiny because of few minutes of illicit sexual pleasure, the destinies of so many people of God (both Israelites and Gentiles through Jesus christ) would have been wasted. 👉 Nobody is above sexual temptations. No matter your age, level of spirituality, anointing or spiritual gifts, you will be tempted by the devil to commit sexual immorality. While it's not a sin to be tempted, it's a sin when we yield to it. God created us as sexual creatures. Naturally, we all crave sex, it's a healthy desire from God. However, God commands us to have sex only in marriage. Whenever you are tempted to commit sexual sin, don't haggle or negotiate with the devil, flee as fast as you can! Cut off those suggestive relationships and be careful with your eyes on the internet!

It reminds me of the attempted assassination of President Regan.... This time around the assassin wasn't doing it for cheap publicity. Guns are like toys to Americans. |
3 million $ in just few minutes.... Smart work pays indeed ![]() Meanwhile someone has just carried 100+ bags of cement on his head and is paid just 1000naira! |
Zonefree:That's money profited with the sale of one's blood. Blood money means money profited at the expense of another's life. |
While Spain are the only team to have won all their matches and truly deserve to win euro 2024... England look destined to win with their highly talented team. |
I hope he has learnt his lesson.... You can't beat nature, no matter how hard you try. You were born a man, don't beat nature by becoming a woman. On the flip side, he may japa to continue his career as a transgender. |
Frank488:Fast, pray and read the Bible more often. |
Masturbation is something I have struggled with for years, until I realized that there are very wicked spiritual forces behind it. Jesus said, ''This kind goes out by nothing but prayer and fasting.' |
When you are faced with a sex temptation, don't act like superman.... Flee!!!
