The Call Of God


Listen! The Lord is with you when you are with Him. If you seek Him, He will be found by you, but if you abandon Him, He will abandon you (2Chronicles 15:2). This is a solemn word of God! He means it and He shows no favoritism. So many have used the decay of the society they live, school or work in as an excuse not to seek God. In Genesis 6 we saw a similar scenario play out: sons of God started mingling with the daughters of men such that they started giving birth to children that were half breeds. This was the generation of Noah; they grieved God so much that He regretted creating man. Despite this prevalent evil, the Lord found Noah to be faithful and righteous. Noah not only lived in that generation, he had a family and a job. These did not deter him from seeking God and serving Him. God found him out on the whole earth as a righteous man. Then God called him and told him about His plans to destroy the earth and the provisions He had made for Noah to save himself and his household. Can we pause and ask ourselves this question: ‘in this generation where God is seeking for those who will worship Him in truth and in Spirit, will I be counted or sought out as a righteous man?’ ‘Are my ways the same as that of the world around me and if a destruction were to come now, will I also be destroyed with them?’ There is a need to search our hearts because God shows no favoritism. We must be approved by the standard of Heaven not the standard of the Church or our Pastors. There is a search in the heart of God for men He will send to a world that is gradually spiraling out of control. Will you say like Isaiah ‘here I am send me’? The Lord is assuring us in 2Chronicles 15:7 not to be discouraged or dismayed by the things we see or experience in obeying Him because our work with Him will be rewarded. Will you heed this call?

You Are What Matters Most To Jesus Christ

 "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 ...

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...

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...
