The Here And There Christian

"As the king passed by, the prophet called out to the king and said, “Your servant went out into the middle of the battle, and behold, a man turned aside and brought a man to me and said, ‘Guard this man; if for any reason he is missing, then your life shall be required for his life, or else you shall pay a talent of silver.’ But while your servant was busy here and there, he [escaped and] was gone.” And the king of Israel said to him, “Such is your own judgment (verdict); you have determined it” (1 Kings 20:39-40, AMP).        The news and happenings around the world indicate to a child of God that these are difficult times that are hard to bear and hard to live with. In fact, the more the Word of God spreads, the more evil and dangerous we see the world. The terrifying part is the more the Church grows, the more we see the 'increase' of the charlatans masquerading as teachers of God's Word. These carry and teach dangerous teachings designed to draw the hearts of t...

Daily Walk With The LORD

       As we await the imminent return of the LORD Jesus Christ, we enter a time of great exposure and blessing. All that had been hidden will be revealed, all that had been a lie will be exposed, and those who can discern these things and make adjustments to their lives will be greatly blessed in this time!        As the Church Age draws to a close, we see and understand the Scriptures more clearly by the Help of the Holy Spirit, as we see Scriptures literary play out before our eyes. These are the times we must strengthen our resolve to serve Him more dearly and follow Him more closely. Failure to do this is to fall into all manner of errors orchestrated by the devil through his agents to derail as many from the path of righteousness and eternal life in Christ Jesus.         Many strange but carefully crafted teachings are flooding the pulpits and airwaves to distract, confuse and steal the hearts of children of God from...

Clean Out The Closets Of Your Heart

       So many in the Body of Christ have become proficient in either mixing their traditions with God's Word or substituting their traditions for God's Word. One must be discerning in these times to recognise the differences and run from them so as not to be ensnared by them!         I can only imagine how pained the LORD Jesus Christ was when he replied to the Pharisees and Scribes when they complained that His Disciples were not diligently following the traditions of the elders as they do: " He replied, “Rightly did Isaiah prophesy about you hypocrites (play-actors, pretenders), as it is written [in Scripture], ‘These people honor Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me. They worship Me in vain [their worship is meaningless and worthless, a pretense], Teaching the precepts of men as doctrines [giving their traditions equal weight with the Scriptures].’ You disregard and neglect the commandment of God, and cling [faithfully] to t...

What Did You Receive?

       Many think the life of being a Born Again Christian is a life that will improve their present life, magically disappear all that ails them and catapult them to the centre or zenith of their desires. This is not true! Sadly, in this present dispensation, so many are preoccupied with themselves, for themselves and after themselves.         Beloved, have you ever pondered on what will happen after the curtain falls and you bow out of this present world, where will your eternal abode be? Have you ever considered if the content of what you believe in will grant you a place in eternity with God? Would He appreciate and reward us for our daily fleshly pursuits, our desire to be better 'though we fall several times a day', the relentless pursuit of our goals but spending less time in knowing Him or 'striving' to know Him more? What do you think the verdict will be?        "It was for you first of all that God raised up His ...

It Is Time To Raise A Cry For Nigeria!

  "The voice said, “Cry out!” And he said, “What shall I cry?” “All flesh is grass, And all its loveliness is like the flower of the field. The grass withers, the flower fades, Because the breath of the Lord blows upon it; Surely the people are grass. The grass withers, the flower fades, But the word of our God stands forever” (Isaiah 40:6-8).         Listening to a brother detailing how Nigeria will be great again because it was foretold decades ago, I quieted down in my spirit to listen to him. According to him, the prophecies of old say that Nigeria will become a beacon of God's light to the rest of the world as they carry His Word to the rest of the world, especially in Africa. He enumerated the many qualities of Nigeria, especially the spiritual significance of her position within the continent of Africa. She will be used by God to trigger the last move of revival in the last days, he continued.         I listened attentively,...

A Tale of Simon The Sorcerer

       The desire of God for us is to go into every nook and cranny of the world with the Good News, calling people to repentance and making disciples of all men! Every tool we need to do this successfully has been given to us. As we see the imminent return of our LORD Jesus Christ, it is sad to note that there are many who have crept into the fold, claiming to be disciples but are not: "I say this because some ungodly people have wormed their way into your churches, saying that God’s marvellous grace allows us to live immoral lives. The condemnation of such people was recorded long ago, for they have denied our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ" (Jude 1:4, NLT).      These have come with cleverly crafted messages, using God's Word as a premise and sprinkling the salt of demonic messages on top, such that the congregations cannot see the error, save for a few. Many of such men have become leaders, ministers and preachers of thriving ministries. These...

Are You A True Disciple? Part 2

       To be a true Disciple is not about being in a particular Church, under a particular head or serving in a particular position or section of the Church. To be true is borne out of your heart, not a programme, a fashion, or the like. "And He was saying to them all, “If anyone wishes to follow Me [as My disciple], he must deny himself [set aside selfish interests], and take up his cross daily [expressing a willingness to endure whatever may come] and follow Me [believing in Me, conforming to My example in living and, if need be, suffering or perhaps dying because of faith in Me]" (Luke 9:23, AMP).         Jesus made the foregoing statement to His disciples. Apart from the 12 He originally chose, many others came to follow Him and to go out to preach the gospel with accompanying signs and wonders. This call to the disciples was to make them decide for themselves: to want to, wish to, desire to, and will to! Despite one's position in societ...
