Fear Not!



As the coming of the Lord draws ever nearer, several unprecedented happenings, decisions, policies and stance around the world that defies logic, negates our beliefs and generally irritate the sensibilities of many will happen and is happening. I can imagine how stupefied the people in the days of Noah were, when they saw him building such a gigantic ship far from any huge body of water under clear skies, no wonder they mocked and laughed at him, thereby sentencing themselves to annihilation! This scenario is reenacting itself even in our days. Jesus Christ used the same analogy to tell the people how His coming will be like. Unfortunately, several thousands of years after, man is yet to learn this lesson. The reason for this may be attributed in some cases to fear. Fear of what to eat, to wear, to live and of the future have made so many align their thoughts and beliefs to ways that negate the word of God. Friend, no matter your circumstances, it is not enough for you to shift your ground concerning your belief in Christ. The world teaches us that when faced with certain inescapable situations we should shift grounds in order to have a win/win situation. Unfortunately the reverse is the case in the Kingdom of God. There is no win/win situation but a win/lose one. You either win with Christ or lose with the devil; it all depends on your stance. Don’t allow fear of the unknown make you say or do things that are contrary to God; it is better to be quiet and allow God to do the talking! When faced with such situations that call to question your faith in God, God says: “Do not fear, for I am with you; do not be afraid, for I am your God. I will strengthen you; I will help you; I will hold on to you with My righteous right hand” (Isaiah 41:10). The strength of God is released to you to hold on to Him even as He holds you so as not to fall from your own stability. 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...
