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 Him. As we walk daily in the LORD in truth, we mature and can see all that we come across as opportunities to grow in Him: "We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation. And this hope will not lead to disappointment. For we know how dearly God loves us, because He has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with His love" (Romans 5:3-5, NLT). 
       In Genesis 22, God told Abraham to take the son, his only son, whom he loves, and sacrifice same to Him on the mountain he will be shown by the LORD. This was a tough ask, even for us today. Beloved, as the days progress and we are certain in our hearts that we are awaiting His return, nothing should be of more importance to you than the LORD. Understand this, whatever is of more importance in your heart controls your attention and drives your desire: "...For by whatever anyone is defeated and overcome, to that [person, thing, philosophy, or concept] he is continually enslaved" (2 Peter 2:19b, AMP). 
       Abraham obeyed the instruction of the LORD because he held God dear in his heart, even though it was a painful ask; and he knew exactly what to do. Besides his son, he took a donkey, two servants, wood, knife and fire. When he was eventually shown the mountain, he left his two servants and donkey behind and proceeded with his son and the articles for a burnt offering. 
       Beloved, as we proceed this year, we will only know what to do when faced with decisions if we are in step (walking in obedience) with the LORD Jesus Christ. Abraham understood that no matter how trustworthy his servants were, they could not and mustn't climb the mountain with him. From human reasoning, the servants might restrain him from carrying out God's instructions. 
       Beloved, there comes a time that certain habits, attitudes, and associations must be dropped for you to enter in and carry out the instructions of the LORD for your life perfectly and adequately; to receive the blessing He has for you: "You will keep in perfect and constant peace the one whose mind is steadfast [that is, committed and focused on You—in both inclination and character], Because he trusts and takes refuge in You [with hope and confident expectation]" (Isaiah 26:3, AMP). 
       May God help you to walk in step with Him daily as He shows you and teaches you how to access the great things He has in store for you, in Jesus Christ name, Amen! God bless you.

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...
