 "When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to him and said, “I am God Almighty; Walk [habitually] before Me [with integrity, knowing that you are always in My presence], and be blameless and complete [in obedience to Me]" (Genesis 17:1, AMP).        A while back, I overheard a conversation between two young men; both were wondering how a person can be and remain holy in a world that daily encourages you to exhibit and enjoy every self-indulgent pleasure one desires. Of course, they knew the Scripture in Psalm 119:9-11, which describes how a young man can keep his way pure, but they feel it is increasingly becoming difficult to discern the way of the Lord from the world system. To them, many Pastors and children of God have been won over by the kingdom of darkness to subvert the principles of God as written in the Bible.           They were not wrong, in light of some of the teaching coming from the pulpits! The above ...

       As a Bible student who is watching for and awaiting the Return of our LORD Jesus Christ, one must be preoccupied with living a life that is worthy of the LORD when He returns. Many claim we live in times where knowledge is abundant. That sounds true, but at the same time, we live in times that are dark and growing darker concerning the knowledge of God on earth. Daily, people attempt to rewrite and misinterpret the Word of God to suit their own appetites. As a result of this, people are getting more fickle in their service and walk with God.         Jesus asked a pertinent question when He was teaching us to be persistent in our prayers: "...Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth" (Luke 18:8b) In the parable, He told of a persistent widow who sought justice from a very difficult and ungodly judge. When looking at the parable, we see the consistency and persistence of the widow until she got her...

       A young man, who loves the LORD Jesus Christ and dutifully serves Him was frustrated one day about a particular project he was working on at his place of work. For days he couldn't find a headway in putting the assignment together. Sadly, none of his team members were of any help, as they always deferred to him when they faced similar challenges. He had always delivered in past projects with excellent results and feedback. However, on this particular one, he could not solve the issues, and no one in his team could help him.         He stood up from his chair this faithful afternoon, threw his arms up in the air and declared, "I am so frustrated, I cannot get this project done, nor can I meet the deadline of submission at this rate." Sadly, just as he had predicted, he could not resolve the issues of the project, and he missed the deadline. Unfortunately, it was a significant project and the organisation lost revenue as a result. Shortl...

       In Luke 18:1-8, Jesus tells a parable about a persistent widow who sought justice against her adversary. She couldn't stand against the person who was fighting her. Her only recourse was to the justice system. She was confident that she would get justice, so she kept pestering the Judge until she got justice. The earthly Judge gave her justice so the woman will not wear him out because of her persistence. Jesus likened this to His elect who persistently ask the Judge of the whole earth for justice against the devil and his schemes. He declared that the Almighty God, the Judge of the whole earth will swiftly grant His elect justice. But He asked a poignant question at the end of the parable: "...However, when the Son of Man comes, will He find [this kind of persistent] faith on the earth ” (Luke 18:8b, AMP).         This question is baffling in the present, in light of how the Gospel is 'spreading' around the world. One would say there ...

 "So I said: “Woe is me, for I am undone! Because I am a man of unclean lips, And I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; For my eyes have seen the King, The Lord of hosts.” Then one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a live coal which he had taken with the tongs from the altar. And he touched my mouth with it, and said: “Behold, this has touched your lips; Your iniquity is taken away, And your sin purged.” Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: “Whom shall I send, And who will go for Us?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me” (Isaiah 6:5-8).         As the Coming of the LORD draws ever closer, there is an increase in dryness, apathy and preoccupation with the world and its treasures in the hearts and minds of many children of God. Looking around our Nation (Nigeria), one would realise that things are not as they should be. The realities on the ground give the impression that the institutions that ought to regulate the lives of the citizen...

       I remember meeting a man of God in his office after the Sunday Services in his Church. I, like many others that day needed a few minutes with him. I was there at the instruction of the LORD to deliver a message. As we were talking, one of his Church workers came in and gave him a note. His face lit up, and he was very excited. I saw that there were sets of numbers written. I thought the numbers represented those who gave their lives to Christ, because many came out during the Altar Call to give and rededicate their lives to the LORD Jesus Christ. No! Apparently, they represent the number of people in attendance at each of the three services with the corresponding money collections realised.         They were not concerned about the souls that came out hungry for God! I was saddened by their excitement. They were not excited about the souls that came into the Kingdom of God; rather, they were rejoicing about their egos, ranks and bank a...
