God’s Love is Undeniable!



       A young lady remarked the other day that God does not love the world because of the terrible things that were happening in several parts of the world. She concluded that humans were created to amuse God and are pawns in His heavenly chess game! I was taken aback at this false summation. When we go through Scriptures, we see the face of a loving Creator that left His glory and splendor in Heaven to come to a planet filled with all manner of vices to die for the humans in order for them to have better lives. This cannot be done except the Creator has love! No other god in history has ever done that or has the intention of doing that. Rather, they treat their adherents as pawns in the chess game ‘they’ play. The Almighty God loves us unconditionally and for that reason came and died in our place so we could have an abundant life here on earth and an everlasting life with Him for all eternity. There are no ‘hidden charges or hidden conditions’ to this offer, rather, it is open for everyone to access! The only response that is expected from us when we accept this awesome gift is to live lives that are worthy of Him and the sacrifice He made on the cross.

      The angels and the devil marvel at this great gift bestowed on frail creatures as it was not extended to them: “What is man that You remember him, the son of man that You look after him? You made him little less than Angels and crowned him with glory and honor, You made him with glory and honor. You made him lord over the works of Your hands; You put everything under his feet; all the sheep and oxen, as well as animals in the wild, birds of the sky, and fish of the sea passing through the currents of the sea” (Psalm 8:4-8). He did all this because we were not an afterthought; we were purposely created for a particular purpose; and the way to achieving the purpose was facilitated by His coming to die for us on the cross. His supreme purpose for doing this is to bring as many as will believe Him to glory (Hebrews 2:10). Friend, don’t ever doubt the love God has for you: it is unquantifiable and immeasurable. No matter the roadblocks on your way that questions the veracity of God’s action, we must remain adamant in our faith that He truly loves and will go to any length to save us. Therefore, don’t despair no matter what is happening around you, God has an ultimate plan and He always win! Our pact in the scheme of things is to remain focused on Him and the heavenly eternal prize which He procured for us as an assurance of His unfailing and unfading love. Take advantage of this by coming to Him afresh so that He could renew your strength in order for you to stand and remain standing till the end. God bless you in Jesus Christ name.

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,...
