God Loves You!

God loves us just the way we are but He refuses to leave us that way! Wow! What a profound thought! Friend, He will not leave you the way He found you because He wants you to be like Him. That is why the Bible tells us in Philippians 2:5 to have the same attitude that Christ Jesus had. God’s great desire for each of us is captured in His love for us just the way we are. If we think His love for us would be stronger if our faith increases, we are wrong. If you think His love would be deeper for you if your thoughts and actions were right, we are wrong again. We must not confuse God’s love with the love of people. The love humans have for each other increases with performance and decreases with mistakes. It is not so with God’s love. He loves us right where we are. Study the chances extended to king Ahab (the seventh most wicked king that ever ruled Israel) and Haman to mention a few.

Luke 18:7 says God will always give what is right to His people who cry to Him night and day and He will not be slow to answer because He loves them. Then you might wonder why He waits until you are broke to answer you. Why does He wait until the sickness progresses to death’s door before He answers? We do not know the answers to these and many more questions. But we know this: the BEST is what He will do for us! Just as He told His disciples in John 9:1-5, that the things we go through are allowed so that the POWER of God could be seen in our lives. No matter how hopeless a situation is before He stepped in, all was done for His glory, no man or spirit will lay claim to it. You might be going through some stuff and wondering when He will show up, if ever. Don’t be troubled, He is working out the best for you and only He will take the glory. Friend, He is very much aware of what you are going through. His desire is that you will depend totally on Him and He will release the grace for you to go through it. So that at the end of the tunnel, you would declare “if God had not being on my side, I would have been consumed”.

Friend, always remember that though we hear nothing, He is speaking. Though we see nothing, He is working. With God there are no accidents. Every incident we encounter is intended by Heaven to bring us closer to Him. He is GOD and He loves us… Do we BELIEVE?

The Quarry Site Experience

Have you ever visited a quarry site and considered the process the rocks are subjected to before they become dressed stones to be used? If the stones could talk they will have a story to tell about their experiences.  As children of God we go through diverse experiences and we wonder if we will indeed survive them. Sometimes we wonder why our gracious and compassionate Father would allow such to befall us considering who we are in Him and what we are doing in His vineyard.  The Scripture that should readily come to our minds in such circumstances is God’s assurance when He said: “I will be with you when you pass through the waters, and when you pass through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. You will not be scorched when you walk through the fire and the flame will not burn you ” (Isaiah 43:2). This Scripture assures us that through the experiences of flames and waters, God is always by our side to see us through.  Thus, it is necessary for us to go through the...

Are You A True Disciple? Part 1

       This decade opened with very dire straits for mankind, as many people around the world woke up to a world that stood still as each nation shut their borders, homes and institutions shutting their doors. If many had been told this scenario could happen a couple of decades ago, one would say it was crazily impossible. But it did happen! Many lives and livelihoods were destroyed, and many institutions and lifestyles, including the Church, were affected. As terrible as the times were and still are, it is exposing the hearts and state of many 'sons of God'!         Many wondered aloud, 'What does the devil want for causing all this havoc?' And some went further to ask, 'What does God want?' The answer to both questions is 'Man' (male and female)! It is a battle between the Kingdom of God and darkness for the soul of man. As a result, man is being prepared both by God and the devil for eternity with either!         ...

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,...
