The book of Job is one controversial book amongst Christians and one that non-believers use to prove that our God is not just and kind. They argue if He was, why put a good man through all that to test his faith? I have found myself asking this same question in recent times. 'Why did You let that happen to me Lord, why couldn’t You stop them from saying that to me?' For you, it could be anything at all that you feel in the moment; even questions you have not been able to ask out loud. The Message Version of the Bible titles Job chapter 1 as “ A Man Devoted to God ”; and it says: “ Job was a man who lived in Uz. He was honest inside and out, a man of his word, who was devoted to God and hated evil with a passion. He had seven sons and three daughters. He was also very wealthy—seven thousand head of sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred teams of oxen, five hundred donkeys, and a huge staff of servants—the most influential man in all the East!” The description of Mr Job was f...

       With all that is going on in our nation, this is not the time to pray but for action, someone said recently. This sentiment, sadly, has been echoed up and down the length and breadth of the country. However, this sentiment, no matter how much sense it seems to make is not right. This is precisely the time we must pray as a people to God to bring back our nation from the brink of a certain disaster as we approach the general elections slated for next year!         We must understand that as long as the house is divided, it cannot stand. The Body of Christ in this nation is divided, and the nation as a whole is sharply divided among tribal and religious lines. A microcosm of what is happening in our country presently took place in Israel during the days of the Judges. The Bible tells us: "In those days, there was no king in Israel; everyone did whatever he wanted" (Judges 21:25). Looking around the country, it looks like there are no laws, o...

       Listening to some of the Prophets of this time, makes one wonder if there is hope at all. There is so much gloom and tales of woe in these prophecies that make you wonder if we are not in the tribulation period spoken of in the Bible. Even though the world is not yet in the tribulation period spoken about in the Scriptures, the days are nevertheless dark. Many Christians all over the world are being persecuted for their faith. In our neck of the woods, many are killed and kidnapped because of their faith.       In some instances, many may not see physical confrontations, but there are passive aggressions toward many professing Christians. Many have been denied promotions, positions and access due to them. All these happenings are enough to dampen the faith of many. Many's faith has waxed cold because of the myriad of problems as a result of their belief in Christ.         The Lord God knew this time will come and is...

      These are indeed dangerous and equally interesting times to be a child of God. The Scriptures had spoken about times like this, with many examples, and ways to live a life of triumph over the shenanigans of the devil and his agents spread over all facets of life. With all manner of philosophies and teachings sweeping across the land, we were warned: "Beware that no one distracts you or intimidates you in their attempt to lead you away from Christ’s fullness by pretending to be full of wisdom when they’re filled with endless arguments of human logic. For they operate with humanistic and clouded judgments based on the mindset of this world system, and not the anointed truths of the Anointed One" (Colossians 2:8, TPT).         The danger of not adhering to the instruction is to be persuaded by 'right-sounding nonsense' that pushes you from standing in the surety of the truth of God's Word. So many are truly called of God and they believe they ...

        There is a mad rush these days to pursue or buy anything that will make one happy. It is like this 'happiness' helps one forget the sorry state of the economy, the mess of relationships or even the life the person is living. I once asked a colleague what makes him happy. His answers ended up confusing him when I asked a follow-up question to his answers: 'would the things mentioned give you happiness always?' He tried to argue that it is impossible to be happy always. This is a lie, and it is not of God. The happiness that flows from God is lasting, except we disconnect from Him! The short-lived one is NOT from Him!           In the Bible, a blessed man is said to be a happy man. Meaning, in some translations, the word 'blessed' is explained as being happy, content, or prosperous. Some dictionaries describe 'Happy' as a feeling or showing pleasure or contentment. Many times, happiness is always substituted for joy. Joy is mostly ...

In the past there arose false prophets among God’s people, just as there will continue to be false teachers who will secretly infiltrate in your midst to divide you, bringing with them their destructive heresies. They will even deny the Master, who paid the price for them, bringing swift destruction on themselves. Many will follow immoral lifestyles. Because of these corrupt false teachers, the way of truth will be slandered. They are only out for themselves, ready to exploit you for their own gain through their cunning arguments... (2 Peter 2:1-3a, TPT).       We live in very strange times, if God had not warned us about them in the Scriptures, many of us would have felt what we had believed is a lie! Even now, many are beginning to think what they believe and held on to concerning God and His ways may not be so true after all. Many teachers of God's Word are even questioning the veracity of the Word. Some even went as far as challenging what they had read in the Script...

        Have you signed on to the Lord's Team or you are on the enemy's team? Our call as sons of God is to showcase the glory of God to a dying world. We know this because the Bible tells us: "The whole universe that God has made now waits for something great to happen. Everything is waiting with hope to find out who God's children are" (Romans 8:19, EASY). This means the whole world is waiting for the true members of the Lord's Team to be revealed. Members that are loyal and committed to the goal of displaying the light of His glory in every sphere of life. Why is this so? The Bible tells us it is because: "Darkness as black as night covers all the nations of the earth..." (Isaiah 60:2a, NLT).         Beloved, look around you! It looks like the whole world is on a maddening spiral down a crazy rabbit hole. Principles of life we hold dear as humans no longer mean anything. Life has become cheap and expendable at every cause and excuse. Gove...
