Revealing His Truth

A young girl got a quite fashionable ready-made wear from a boutique with all she had made from her merger savings. Sad enough, on getting home, she discovered that a particular part of the dress was loosed, disfiguring the fitness of it on her. She ran quickly to the location where she bought the cloth, amazingly, she was told that the boutique was a mobile store. Her desperate mind to change the dress pushed her to trace the boutique's next selling point, on getting their, she demanded a change for the dress item, the sellers refused, they claim to operate a no return policy on purchased dresses. She retired home unhappy and discouraged. While her mum returned from work, she discovered her daughter's rather reserved continuance, mum asked, "what's the problem with you?...you look unusually quiet and reserved". She shared her ordeal with mum in tears. Mum told her not to worry at all and that all the dress needs was an amendment which will be fixed by the tailor ...

Frankly speaking, everybody on planet earth desires long life. The intense desire for long life is spelt in the hopeful expectation of the socially, politically and economic deprived as well as those challenged in health that some day the table will turn and life will be worth living. To this end, rarely has death ever been the solution in tacking life challenges. May we then be correct to say, death is one of lives most dreaded pain; which ever way it is seen, death is real and has remained one debt every human will pay, but certainly NOT NOW because there is provision of longevity for God's children. See this, "With long life will l satisfy him, and show him my salvation." (Psalm 91:16) Beloved, there is a covenant against untimely death in God's word (the Bible) binding the prolonged existence of believers here on earth. Dear reader, l know life challenges, including life threatening one are very much around us today, yet we have to be focused on the already seal...

A common instruction introducing examinations comes this way, "follow the instruction below". For every examination participants to make outstanding outcome, the stated instructions must be followed to letter which we often comply with. Sadly, when it comes to biblical instructions, Christian principles, and divine injunctions, we find it difficult to adhere. A particular one we have been considering in previous issues on (TRR)- ASK!  Ask, and it shall be given you: seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth: and he that seeketh  findeth: and to him that knocketh it shall be opened" (Matthew 7:7-8). Asking is the pathway to receiving. As far as God and His Word is concerned, a simple way to receiving blessings from God is by asking in faith. "But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall rec...

Economics brought to fore the knowledge that human wants are insatiable. However true this many appear, there must be a means through which human beings will then pursue and satisfy these needs. I am sure you are will agree with me that ASKING is one of the ways to getting those unending human wants. For Christians, this asking is expressed in the place of prayer. Believers will always have requests as it touch their spiritual, ministerial, family, circular needs and so on, more particularly the basic needs of life. It is interesting to discover, God understands that for man to get his needs and prayers answered, ASKING is indispensable, this is why in the Lord's prayer, Christ taught we, His disciples, "After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread..." (Matthew 6:9-11). You must ask for your daily bread just like you ask other t...

"Ask Google" was the response of a young lady to the unending questioning of her friend. Demanding answers is the core function of questioning. The existence of a body of knowledge is a product of scrutiny which is often made possible by knowledge based enquiry. On a light note, from childhood, man is fond of asking; we ask for material needs most times from our parents, demand relief for our health needs from the doctors, nurses or pharmacists; and of course our intellectual and cognitive agitations are fixed by our teachers, guardian and sometimes studying. Funny but true to know, we now live in a digitalized generation where we are now fond of asking Google, Yahoo, Bing and a number of search engines hosted on the world web. The point here is, our existence is akin to asking. Perhaps this will hold water, "Asking is Living". Our needs and wants has subjected humanity to an asking/demanding culture. You will discover that communication and relationships are bond ...
