Trust!


Do you trust the Lord to see you through these times? No matter what you may be going through, I believe that you are here for such times as this so that the awesome power of God may be showcased in your life. We are indeed in times when it is difficult to stand and remain on the truth we profess. Especially in our climes where corruption has become the order of the day, it is difficult to differentiate between what people stand against and what they stand for. So many claim to stand against corruption but given half the opportunity the people they criticize have, they would do worse on that same seat. It is for a fact that we are living in the last days the Bible talked about in 2Timothy3:1-9. But these are the times we must stand and remain standing in our unwavering trust in God. The Bible tells us in Psalm 125:1-2 – “Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion. It cannot be shaken; it remains forever. Jerusalem – the mountains surround her. And the Lord surrounds His people, both now and forever.” In the face of all the ups and downs of this world, this is reassuring and welcoming news. It does not matter what you are going through, you just remain trusting Him and you are assured of His towering Presence, mercy, love, grace and faithfulness. He didn't just stop there He equally promised us in verse 3: “The scepter of the wicked will not remain over the land allotted to the righteous, so that the righteous will not apply their hands to injustice.” Friend is someone oppressing you because of their wealth, influence or position?  He tells us that their right of rulership symbolized by the ‘scepter’ has been terminated. It will no longer rest or remain on what has been legally and legitimately allotted to you by your Father in Heaven. God has moved the tables, changed chairs and changed the music tempo on your behalf. All that is required of you is to continue to trust Him and you will see the awesome delivering Arm of the Lord. When the sons of Reuben, Gad and half of the tribe of Manasseh in 1Chronicles 5:18-22 with just an army numbering 44,760 warriors waged war against four nations they won a resounding victory. Why? Because they cried out to the Lord, put their trust in Him and He helped them. The Bible went on to say the reason they won was because they trusted Him; for that singular reason, the battle became the Lord’s. When we put our trust in Him, all our battles becomes His! No more sorrowful and mournful looks because of the scepter of the wicked; be assured that God is capable of taking care of you because He surrounds you. All that concerns you concerns Him. He that the Heavens cannot contain, even the earth is His footstool; at His voice mountains quake and skip like rams – He says He surrounds you! What an awesome thought! Praise God! It is indeed good and beneficial for us to TRUST Him! God bless you as you put your Trust in Him.

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,...
