TEXT: PROVERBS 3

The book of Proverbs chapter 3 admonishes us a lot. Let's together draw nourishment from it.

** Verse 1 started with the book of the law which is the Holy Bible, it says do not forget my law. Meditate on it day and night , also, keep my commandments. When we do this, the blessings that follows are, longevity , long life and peace of mind.

** We shouldn't be weary of showing mercy to others and saying the truth at all times, verse 3 says" bind them round your neck and write them upon the table of your hearts". When we do this, the blessings that follows are, all round favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.

** Always TRUST the Lord, with all that we've got and with our heart ; do not do things without God , without his leadings and guidance. By doing this, he will always direct us in the way to go. Remember, when God leads the way ,it leads to success but when you lead yourself it ends up in struggles.

** Fear the Lord always, don't do evil things and feel you are wise. God says in verse 7 " Depart from evil", for it shall be health to your navel and marrow to the bones.

** Verse 9 says " Honour the Lord with your substance, and with the first fruit of all thine increase". That is , give the best of what you have to God ( to the needy around you), your talent, wealth, service etc and you will in return see that your barns will be filled, you will never lack anything good. Also, your presses shall Burst out with new wine. Remember, God rewards Labour. He his a rewarder of them that deligently seek and serve him.

** God corrects us when we go astray, he sometimes brings us problems that will put us back to shape. He says in verse 11" Do not be weary (tired) of his corrections" . Heed to them , for it is whom the Lord loves that he corrects.

** Do you lack wisdom and understanding? Happy is the man that finds and has it. For it is far better than gathering wealth. Wisdom and understanding comes with a total package of , length of days, riches and honour, pleasantries, peace, a tree of life, happiness, life, grace, divine protection and confidence.

** When it's in your power to do good to others, please do not hesitate. Verse 27 says" withold not good from them to whom good is due, when it is in your power to do" . not good from them to whom good is due, when it is in your power to do" . When you have the power to bless or the opportunity to give, give and don't say come back tomorrow, I'll see you tomorrow. Beloved, tomorrow might just be too late and it might be counted against you.
Beloved, let us draw strength and wisdom from this Bible passage and see things work in our favour. Shalom.

Topic: Do not deny his name; Keep his word.
Text: Rev. 3:7-13

There are indeed blessings to as many as will keep the word of the Lord and not deny his name. Many indeed are the trails and temptations that the believers go through. The word of God in James 1:12 makes us understand that blessed is the man who endures temptation. This makes us understand that as Christians, there's always something to overcome.
They will be challenges that will come your way in order to try your faith. Hold on to the word of God and do not deny his name, victory will be yours because God is the rewarder of those that diligently seek him. Shalom.

Do good Always, it pays!!

Temptation! The worst enemy of man.Beware!!

Happy Sunday!!

*How our Father used our Elder Brother for Sacrifice*

A true confession I grew up in a family of many Children Things were .moving and keep moving well for us . None of us could explain why we had so much favour and wealth and all we needed We never failed in school and we could not be involved in accidents Something will just bring us out safely. People will always say that we have juju in us. Whatever evil they speak or plan against us doesn't affect us as become sick or fail in life. I knew it was not ordinary so I set out to personally know why. It is what I found I have decided to expose to the whole world today without any fear I found out that we have an elder brother. My Father's first born. That our father sacrificed him for the family to progress They used his blood to enter a covenant that nobody in the family should be poor or sick or die Young (Blood money?) Not just that, what I also discovered again Is that even though a stranger joins our family as long as he becomes a member of our family the covenant will work for him But Why? Why would my father Use my elder brothers Life... This world is immirimious!! But it is for our good because I discovered that this our eldest brother agreed with our Father before he was sacrificed because he doesn't want us to suffer. So I'm posting this to expose His identity so that you will know that am not what am today by my struggle or by chance of luck. It is the blood of our eldest brother that is working for us. I will also expose my father's identity so the world can know those behind this act. My Father's name is - God Almighty, (Loving Father) used Our Brother Jesus Christ ( Our 1st Born (Rom 8:29)) as a Sacrificial Lamb (that was slain). To *save* us To *heal* us To *bless* us To *deliver* us To *redeem* us To *sanctify* us To open the doors of prosperity for us. Join our family today as we enjoy this blood sacrifice and Say - Thank you Jesus for your sacrifice I accept you as my Lord and Saviour and I believe you died and rose again to save, bless and heal me. Thank you for this great love on us. I will forever be grateful for your � love. Amen Please share my confession with others.

TOPIC: DOING GOD'S WORK

TEXT: JOSHUA 1:8

God was speaking to Joshua after the death of Moses his servant. At this time he was transferring the mantle of leadership to Joshua, telling him of the lands and territories they will inherit and admonishing him to be strong and not be fearful.

It is a well known fact that many of us who are called by God , always doubt and fear the callings of God over our lives, many will run just like Jonah and reject the voice of God. Many will say, I do not have the power and strength to overcome people's situation. Many will say how can I face the devil on people's behalf. But God is telling us today, when you take up my work and assignment which I've directed you, when you do my biddings, he said in verse 5, that " No one will be able to stand up against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so will i be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you".

Joshua never had a chance to think twice about Gods calling upon his life. Immediately God called him, he began to give him instructions, (this are what i want you to fulfill ), encouragement (verse 6,"Be strong and courageous, because you will lead these people to inherit the land I swore to their forefathers to give them", he gave him commandments (verse 7- 8a,"Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go". 8a "Do not let this Book of the Law depart from your mouth; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. ) and lastly promises (verse 8b "Then you will be prosperous and successful".

Kindly note this, that when God sends you on an errand, he always back you up, God will never send you without equipping you (with instructions, encouragement, commandments and his promises). That was why he said , This Book of the Lord ,that is, the BIBLE, should not depart from our mouth. He asked us to meditate in it day and night. By so doing, we will have enough words in us to fight the fiery darts of the Enemy.

We can't work for God without him paying us for our labour, God is not a task master, he sends you and rewards you or he directs you to were your reward is. In Joshua 1:8b he says " Then you will be prosperous and successful". The English Standard Version will say "For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success". Here, it says, by meditating on his words and doing his bidding, then you have made yourself prosperous and successful.

Receive God's courage today to do exploit for him in Jesus name. Shalom.

If you read this piece and you've not given your life to Jesus, it will be difficult to do exploit for God and work for him, the devil will end up using your life as a football field. Why not surrender your totality to him, confess all known and unknown sins and be a free man today. THANK YOU FOR DOING JUST THAT. AMEN.

KBARBIE:
Do you know that you don't need to worship IDOLS before you commit the sin of IDOLATRY; Fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence (lust) and covetousness are all IDOLATRY. Col 3:5. Shallom.

Idolatry is easy as believing the accounts of a mere man over the truth that is of God. That is how easy it is to commit Idolatry and we know that so many these days do just that. Turn there backs on God's commandment just to justify the lies told by men in the name of God.

Peter, the apostle, warned people about ALL MOGs (False Prophets and Teachers), from about 2000 years ago.

2 Peter 2 vs 1-7 (ERV)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. In the past there were false prophets among God’s people. It is the same now. You will have some false teachers in your group. They will teach things that are wrong—ideas that will cause people to be lost. And they will teach in a way that will be hard for you to see that they are wrong. They will even refuse to follow the Master who bought their freedom. And so they will quickly destroy themselves.
2. Many people will follow them in the morally wrong things they do. And because of them, others will say bad things about the way of truth we follow.
3. These false teachers only want your money. So they will use you by telling you things that are not true. But the judgment against these false teachers has been ready for a long time. And they will not escape God who will destroy them.

4. When angels sinned, God did not let them go free without punishment. He sent them to hell. He put those angels in caves of darkness, where they are being held until the time when God will judge them.

5. And God punished the evil people who lived long ago. He brought a flood to the world that was full of people who were against God. But he saved Noah and seven other people with him. Noah was a man who told people about living right.

6. God also punished the evil cities of Sodom and Gomorrah. He burned them until there was nothing left but ashes. He used those cities as an example of what will happen to people who are against God.
7. But he saved Lot, a good man who lived there. Lot was greatly troubled by the morally bad lives of those evil people. 8 This good man lived with those evil people every day, and his good heart was hurt by the evil things he saw and heard.

What peter said is indeed what we see happening here and now. Because of the AntiChrists also called MOGs, the world does not view Jesus Christ in a good light at all. You simply mention that you believe in the God of the Bible, and almost immediately you see the detest in their looks... nothing to do with persecution at all. No, they have become wary of those who claim to be Christians. The world is tired of the lies and deceit of MOGs - the hypocrisy that is claimed and justified in the name of God.

These MOGs are the Antichrists as they have set themselves up as Masters over Jesus Christ's flock, pretending to be Teachers in His place.

Their doctrines and traditions are twisted representations of the teachings of Jesus Christ, and in many cases many are deceived and led away from the Truth of Jesus Christ as a result.

They sit themselves in the place of God in the minds of His own sheep and they steal, kill and destroy, for their own pleasure and kingdoms, that which God has planned for those who are His. And they do all of this in the name of God.
MOGs are the false prophets that Jesus Christ warned His followers to beware of. These are the antichrists that the apostles spoke of even during their days.

The Story Behind: God Will Make A Way

The American Pastor, singer, songwriter and producer of Christian worship music, Donald James Don Moen was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota on 29 June, 1950. He grew up in Minneapolis and left for Tulsa, Oklahoma, after high school to study at Oral Roberts University; he graduated with a degree in music in the year 1972.
His excellent singing abilities caught the attention of many who encouraged him to join worship groups; he joined Terry Law’s worship team called the Living Sound. He rose to be president while working with Integrity Media. He worked for over twenty years with the media before forming ‘The Don Moen Company’ in December 2007.

The gospel icon has been married since 1973, to his wife Laura Moen. The union is blessed with five children Melissa, James, John, Rachel and Michael Moen. He has blessed us with over 40 albums since the 1980s, with songs packed with power. One of his songs that has reached the four corners of the earth, received many awards from around the globe and touched lives in multiple ways spread across several dimensions ‘God Will Make A Way’ is the focal point in this article. He narrated the inspiration behind the song:

“When I wrote the song ‘God Will Make A Way’, I wrote it for a tragic situation in my family, my wife’s sister and husband where travelling with their family on the way to Colorado to have a Ski vacation, their van was broad sided by an eighteen wheeler. All four of the boys were thrown out of the van and three were seriously injured, but Jeremy the oldest was killed instantly.
When I heard that news, I can’t tell you how helpless I felt, all the words that came to my mouth to say to Susan and Craig that day seemed to fall short of what l really wanted to say. All the scriptures that came to my mind didn’t seem to be the right ones. I had to get on an airplane the next day and I read Isaiah 43: About how God will make a way, a roadway in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. Verse 18-19 says don’t remember the former things, behold I will do something new and it will spring forth, I will make a roadway in the wilderness and rivers in the desert .

As I was sitting on the plane, I asked God to give me something to say to them at the funeral, something that will give them hope in a hopeless situation and that moment, God gave me a simple song which has become one of my most well-known songs

‘God will make a way,
Where there seems to be no way,
He works in ways we cannot see,
He will make a way for me’.

I know that, that one phrase is a phrase God gave me to say to Susan and Craig that day, ‘He works in ways we cannot see’ maybe you need to hear that same phrase too. This song was written in a desperate situation but it is not a song of desperation, it is a song of declaration ‘God Will Make A Way’. He will make a way for you today, no matter what you are going through, you just have to believe that even though your bank account many not look good, the doctors report may not sound good, God is still working in ways you cannot see and He is still able to make a way where there seems to be no way.”

Who would have thought that a simple song according to him would make such impact in the world?

#THERESABALMINGILEAD

TEXT: ISAIAH 1:1-20

This chapter talks about the vision of Prophet Isaiah which he saw concerning the children of Sodom and Gomorrah. How God was bittered against them. God called them a sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, corrupted children.

God says they are wayward and have forsaken their God. They have provoked Him who is Holy, to anger and have gone backward.

Their sins were so grievous that God refused to accept their sacrifices, he refused their offerings and despised all oblations. In vs 13, He said "bring them no more". It was an outright rejection. In Vs 14 , he says " your new moons and your appointed feast my soul hate; they are trouble unto me; I am weary to bear them". May God not be weary of us in Jesus name.

Are you toiling the part of the children of Sodom and Gomorrah? Are you doing abominable things in the presence of your maker? Things that make you stink before him? Are you letting in those little foxes and letting them have dominion over your lives? Do you want God to hide his eyes from you when you spread your hands? (Vs 15). Do not wait till you are in a situation when you pray and God refuses to answer because of your SINFUL NATURE.

The amazing thing about God is that, he's a merciful God. He draws us closer when we realise ourselves and draw closer to him. In vs 16 -17, he says" WASH you, make you CLEAN, put away the EVIL of your doings from before mine eyes, CEASE to do evil. LEARN to do well, seek Justice, take up the cause of the fatherless and plead for the widow( Plead their case)". In other words, God is saying lay down your filthy rags, your old nature and put on the new man that does good, that does the right things, that helps the sick and the oppressed.

After you might have done all these, he said in vs 18a, " come let us reason together", let us commune as friends, let's dine and be happy together, I will be a father unto you and you will be my child. I will no longer detest you. He says " though your sins be as Scarlet, they shall be white as snow; though they be like red crimson, they shall be as wool".

Furthermore, he promised us something great which is a blessing for everyone that does and takes the precept of God. In verse 19, he says" If ye be WILLING and OBEDIENT, ye shall EAT the GOOD of the land." That is, you shall eat in plenty, in abundance. You shall struggle no more. You shall see opportunities and take hold of them. He says in vs 20 that if you refuse to do his biddings " Ye shall be DEVOURED with the SWORD". May we not be DEVOURED and rejected in Jesus name.

Beloved let's make a checklist of our life, let's choose this day whom we shall serve. And when we serve, let's serve with all diligence. May we not be a cast away in Jesus name. Amen. SHALOM.

‌If you read this piece , and you want to give your life to Christ, you want to say Lord please take away this little foxes away from me. I don't want to refuse you and rebel against you Lord. Humbly kneel and ask God to forgive and cleanse you. If you did this , just give me a HI so, I can pray further with you. THANK YOU.

[b]Beloved, walk in integrity today. Let honesty be your watch word in everything you do...in your business be honest, in your financial life , be honest, in your marital life , be honest..in all areas of your life, strive to be honest.

David said in Psalm 25: 21, he says" let integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait on the". In Psalm 26 v 1, he said" Judge me, o Lord, for I have walked in mine integrity, I have trusted also in the Lord, therefore I will no slide". This is David boasting in his honesty, integrity to God. Can we beat our chest like David and say "Judge me by my integrity, honesty o Lord?".
This is a food for thought for us today. Let us walk in integrity today and make honesty an habit and God will help us in Jesus name. Shalom.

If you are yet to give your life to Christ, let's do it together now, by asking God � to forgive you and confess your sins. Do not forget to forgive others too and continue to live a sinless life. God bless you.[/b]

Good morning fellas, may your day be as sweet as honey �.

Sin IS sin, NO matter the COLOURATION. You do not talk of honour where SIN REIGNS. No! Until you solve the sin problem, you can never experience lasting honour.
STOP SIN BEFORE IT STOPS YOU!
