Temptation: There Is A Way Out Is there actually a way out of being tempted to do evil? Have you being tempted before to do something that was not good? What was your response to that? All these will be discussed properly here And do well to read, understand and finally, remain blessed. *Text: 1 Cor. 10: 13* “The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you…
Inspiration In The Word *Text: 2Tim. 3:16-17* “All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work.” (NLT) The scriptures undoubtedly was written by men, but that does not make it the words of men, rather it is the word of God. This simple truth is what is revealed to us…
Revelation Through The Light *Text: Luke 2: 32* “A light to bring revelation to the Gentiles, And the glory of Your people Israel.” (NKJV) Jesus Christ came to the world as light to lighten our darkness. The bible tells us that the whole world lies under the power of the wicked one (1 John 5: 19), which is another way of saying that the whole world lies under the power of darkness. So the coming of Jesus as Light into the world is to shed light into this dark world thereby…
New Life In Christ *Text: 2 Cor. 5: 17* *This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!” (NLT) One of the uniqueness of the Christian faith is that it is a faith that demands death as a necessary entry qualification. All those who desire to come into the Christian faith must die to sin, must die to self, must die to the flesh and must die to the old life before they can be qualified to come into the faith,…
Empowered With Inner Strength *Text: Eph. 3: 16* “I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit” (NKJV) Physical strength is good because it gives us ability to work. And the bible commands that he that does not work must not eat (2 Thess. 3: 10). Physical strength helps us to move around and to live an effective and an impactful life. Weakness is the absence of strength and it is not something that is…
You Have All You Need *Text: 2 Pet. 1: 3 * “By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. We have received all of this by coming to know him, the one who called us to himself by means of his marvelous glory and excellence” (NLT) Our God is powerful, the bible declares that power belongs to Him – “God has spoken once, Twice I have heard this: That power belongs to God” (Psa. 62: 11). God through His power accomplishes much in our life.…
Are You Thirsty? *Text: Psa. 143: 6 * “I lift my hands to you in prayer. I thirst for you as parched land thirsts for rain” (NLT) Are you thirsty? Ask anyone that question today and one of the likely response you will get is: “Thirsty for what? What they are telling you indirectly through that response is that the answer to your question depends on what it is you have in mind as the object of the thirst. Is it thirst for water? Thirst for a cold drink? Thirst for a good…
Everlasting Care For God's People To care for someone is to provide for his or her well-being. It is to ensure that the spiritual, moral and material needs of the person are provided through proper guidance, adequate protection and the ample supply of physical needs. Guidance has to do with sound religious education and moral instruction such that the person grows up to be a responsible and contented citizen. Protection has to do with sheltering someone from any kind of…
The Convenant A covenant is a bond or agreement which binds two parties in a relationship of trust and obedience. The parties may be of equal or unequal rank. An example of a covenant between equals was the one between David and Jonathan in the Book of Samuel. The covenant between God and Abraham and between God and Israel, are instances of agreements between unequals. In any covenant, whether between equals or not, there are obligations or duties to be carried out by both…
The Power of The Word *Text: Heb. 4: 12* “For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart” (NKJV) The bible is a book, but it is a book like no other book. It is a book that stands in a world of its own and is totally incomparable with any other. One of the major difference between the bible and any other…
The Convenant 2 God's covenant with Abraham rested on divine initiative. It is God who calls us into a relationship. What is required, which Abraham did and which his descendants were expected to do, is to respond positively to God's gracious act. God's covenant with Abraham, being the first of its kind, opened a new relationship in God's revelation to mankind. Henceforth, man will be in perpetual covenant relationship with God. The Abrahamic convenant on its part was…

Remember His marvelous works which He has done, His wonders, and the judgments of His mouth” (NKJV) In this life people are always seeking for something, and so in that sense everybody is a seeker. Some are seeking for influence, some are seeking for wealth, some are seeking for happiness, some are seeking the things that will bring real satisfaction and fulfilment in life, they…
God Will Finish It *Text: Phil. 1: 6* “being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ” (NKJV) The Almighty God is a finisher of whatever He has started He does not do anything half way. God has capacity to complete that which He has started. He will not begin anything unless He has the intention to finish it. Jesus Christ revealed to us in the gospels that one of the reason why it is not good to…
Gift & Greed ***Text: John 14: 27*** “I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid” (NLT) A gift is an act of benevolence from one person to another. It can be financial, material and it can even be a highly coveted position. A gift is not earned and is totally at the discretion of the giver. He decides who to give, what to give and the quantity or the quality of what to give. The…
God’s Heritage For His Children *Text: Isa. 54: 17* “No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, And their righteousness is from Me,” Says the Lord” (NKJV) Believers have inheritance in Christ and that is good news indeed. Beyond the joy of getting to spend eternity in heaven with God, one of the things we look forward to in heaven, is the possession of…

Are You Unstoppable? Text: Jer. 1: 19 “' They will fight against you, But they shall not prevail against you. For I am with you,” says the Lord, “to deliver you.” To be unstoppable is to be without restraint such that nothing is able to pull you back from whatever it is you set out to achieve. To be unstoppable is to be sufficiently empowered such that you are able to overcome limitations and whatsoever may constitute a stumbling block to whatever you seek to achieve in…
Modelling Christ In Our Behaviour READINGS: Psa. 119: 49-64; Ezek. 36: 24-28; Gal. 5: 16-26; Luke 6: 27-38 TEXT: Luke 6: 35-36 “But love your enemies, do good, and lend, hoping for nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High. For He is kind to the unthankful and evil. Therefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful” A model is defined in the dictionary as a miniature (small) representation of something. A model gives…
Light Vs Darkness I'm back. Read & be blessed The dispensation of darkness is gone and the dispensation of light is here. The dispensation of darkness is the dispensation without Christ. It can otherwise be called the hour of the kingdom of darkness. Before the advent of Christ the devil had a field day terrorising, tormenting and destroying lives at will. Darkness reigned and many were held in captivity by it without any hope of deliverance. The coming of Jesus, His death…
The Peace Of God Which Passeth All Understanding *Text: Phil. 4: 7* “Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.” This is a great promise for the day and the hour in which we are living right now. The world is full of many troubles, turmoil and conflicts and these things tend to create unrest in the lives of many. Many are permanently in a state of panic, many are…
The Greater Mercies Of God *Text: Lam. 3: 22-23* “Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed, Because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; Great is Your faithfulness” The Almighty God does not change, He is the same yesterday, today and forever.

The Greatest Ministry Of The HolySpirit Text: John 16: 13 “When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own but will tell you what he has heard. He will tell you about the future.” Jesus Christ has always shown concern regarding what would be the fate of His disciples after His departure, and He did not hide His concern from them. He pictured His disciples as sheep in the midst of wolves and we all have a good idea of what will…
Overcoming Dangerous Barriers Text: 2 Sam. 22: 30 “' For by You I can run against a troop; By my God I can leap over a wall.” Barriers are obstacles that impede movement. They are obstructions that makes it impossible to move forward and thereby making backward movement inevitable. When barriers are in place, forward movement is stopped and people will naturally tend to move backward. Barriers can be physical, it can be a thing – either living or non-living and it can be a…
Let God Fight For You Text: Exod. 14: 13-14 “And Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which He will accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall see again no more forever. The Lord will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace” Just after they escaped from Egypt, Moses encouraged the Israelites with the words of our text. Perhaps he understood that our natural reaction in moments of…
