Don't Get Bored And Cross The Line On The Sand

     The Bible tells us that the devil and his hosts know there is one God, and the knowledge causes them to tremble in terror. This means they know He is Powerful and can destroy them at His will. In fact, they know their very existence is by His will, and at His will they will cease to exist. If the devil knows this, why do humans think He does not exist, and if He does, they can wrap Him around their finger!         Those that claim to be sons of God that ought to know these things behave as if He has lost His power or the power can be wielded according to their own will. Hence the rewriting and retelling of His Word as it pleases them. This phenomenon is not strange, as we saw a similar pattern in the Bible. No wonder the Bible tells us: "The thing that has been–it is what will be again, and that which has been done is that which will be done again; and there is nothing new under the sun.” (Ecclesiastes 1:9, AMPC). Listen, what was, will be ag...

Living In The Presence of God

 “You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore” (Psalm 16:11).        A brother was teaching in a Bible Study that a man who has Christ has everything. In the same breath, he added that to make a mark in this generation, one must have money and influence. He concluded that who you know matters, as it opens doors to wealth for as many as are diligent. To this brother, standing in the Presence of reputable and influential men will open doors of wealth to his congregants. Sadly, this is the dilemma of many within the Body of Christ: the desire to eat from the table of God and, at the same time, feed from the table of the world (1 Corinthians 10:21-22).         The statement of the brother sounds true but is able to lead a man away from the LORD Jesus Christ. He started well but veered off because of the lust for the things of the world. Yes, we do need the things the w...

Time To Search For And Hold Fast To GOD'S WORD

 "And He [that same Jesus Himself] is the propitiation (the atoning sacrifice) for our sins, and not for ours alone but also for [the sins of] the whole world" (1John 2:2, AMPC).        Jesus Christ came to the world, lived (to show man how to live) and died as a Sacrifice for the sin of mankind; and He is coming back again for us to be with Him forever. For as many as believe in Him and appropriate His sacrifice to their lives, they are saved. Saved from the wrath of the Almighty God to come on the sin of the world! God hates the sin, but He loves His creation. Hence He came in the flesh and took the condemnation and the eternal punishment of sin from mankind upon Himself. This is a sacrifice no other god or name has ever contemplated or done for their adherents throughout the centuries, since the creation of the Universe! Now, here is the crux of the matter.         You may have believed Him; it is good, but it is not enough! The Bibl...

Brothers, Lend Me Your Ears!

       When God made man, He told man: "...God said to them, “Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth, and subdue it. Rule the fish of the sea, the birds of the sky, and every creature that crawls on the earth” (Genesis 1:28). Man was to be fruitful and multiply his kind. Meaning he will reproduce himself. God expects that as man reproduces himself, he passes on not just his DNA; he also passes on what he has learnt.         This He repeated when He told the children of Israel (while they were in the wilderness) to bind His word in their hearts. To teach their children while they sat at home or they were walking along the road. As they do this, not only will they be blessed, but their days and that of their children may be long on earth (Deuteronomy 11: 18-21). This means parents, especially the fathers, must disciple their children, teaching them what they themselves had learnt.         To disciple them is to teach th...

Before You Speak...

 "Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit" (Proverbs 18:21).         Have you noticed that one of the things the enemy has succeeded in doing is changing definitions of certain words? Such that words that were plainly understood now have double meanings. And of course, neither of the meanings is exactly what the meaning of the word should be. Some words, allow your imagination to run while actually meaning something different. The whole idea is not just to demystify language but to demystify the power of words on our tongue.         Now, when you think words don't matter, or they matter in certain circumstances and not in others, you will speak without guardrails on your tongue. What this means is you will mean one thing in certain circumstances and something else in another circumstance. Hence the words "I really didn't mean it like that"! Sadly, the damage will be done.   ...

The Perverted Love Of St Valentine's Day

         We live in a world where those who suppress the truth have the loudest voices. They are more persuasive in their arguments because their arguments sound logical and well-reasoned. However, the fact that an argument is loud and logical does not necessarily mean it is the truth. At the same time, the fact that an argument is loud and logical does not mean it is of God. So many claim they do not care where it originates from, but they agree with and have bought into its message. If that is your stance, then you need to hear this because what you believe and have bought into is a lie. Remember, ignorance is not bliss but a dangerous position to occupy as many ‘ignorants’ abound in hell!        The argument for celebrating St. Valentine's Day is loud and sounds logical but it is not the truth, nor is it of God! It is not of God because the love that Jesus Christ portrays carries within it the responsibility of self-sacrifice whilst that o...

Finding True Love

         From the beginning of time, God Almighty has sought various means of communicating His thoughts and desires to humanity. Through the very things He has created around us, He clearly reveals His divine nature and our predestined purposes as the object of His love to those who care enough to pay attention.  His goal has always been to set men free from all that limits them from experiencing an abundant life. There is no doubt that the present life as we know it, with all its hurts, pains and heartbreak was never meant to be this way; indeed the enemy has done this.         Friends, if He created the earth with hidden and precious treasures, then how much more you? The enemy, on the other hand, has worked overtime to create things that bind, blind, limit, and ultimately stop us from fulfilling our God-given destinies. His most successful strategies are those which are subtle and appeal to our fleshly desires, just as...
