Now!


When we compare the news report headlines all over the world, the prevalent picture shows a world that is spiralling out of control in everything that is inimical to the growth of any society. Comparing these headlines to the end-time prophecies of the Bible, we can safely conclude that God's game clock is running out: that it's way past halftime in our world! In fact, it could be that our world and our generation are hearing God's two-minute warning. When football players hear that warning, they throw caution to the wind, they make every second count and they do whatever it takes to get points on the score-board. Jesus Christ said, "We must quickly carry out the tasks assigned us by the One who sent us. The night is coming, and then no one can work.” (John 9:4 – NLT).  It seems to me that Team Jesus - all of us who claim to follow Him - should be doing no less! We should be moving beyond maintenance mode to taking new grounds for the Kingdom. We should be serving and giving like there may not be a lot more tomorrows. Friend, the time has come and is NOW to forget turf and forget territory! He is coming for His BODY not bodies. It is time to wage a united battle for the lost souls in our towns! Let's refuse to let our fears keep us any longer from telling that lost friend, neighbour or relation about our Jesus Christ. It is time to abandon the suspicions and tentativeness that are bred by uncertain times like these, and trade it in for selfless and bold actions that these times demand. This is no time to settle for being on the sidelines or in the stands, or hiding out in some holy huddle! Neither is it time to be heading for the locker rooms or sitting on the ball. This game is too big to forfeit, and it's too costly to lose. Remember, the enemy hungers to win but we must be hungrier to win! God bless you.

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...

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...

But You Did Not Learn Christ In This Way

       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...
