REVIVAL

A lot of things are been said and written on the subject of spiritual revival, I will be depending on a number of such as I present this issue."Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?"(Psalms  85:6). When REVIVAL is mentioned, what comes to mind? Big tent? Fire and brimstone preaching? Lots of shouts of Amen, Hallelujah, Thank you Jesus? Certainly in times past we have seen all of these things but truth be told, revival is very rare and sometimes nonexistent today. I think this is mostly because in today’s high-tech, fast-paced, rush-rush world we have lost sight of what it means to devote time to steadfast prayer for the unsaved; to share the good news about eternal life. A good definition of revive is found in Merriam-Webster as: 1. to make (someone or something) strong, healthy, or active again 2. to become strong, healthy, or active again 3. to bring (something) back into use or popularity Beloved, how descriptive of our church today are t...

I GAVE ALL

"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life"(John 3:16). I think of the matchless love of God for humanity and it appears none or very little is done by humanity in appreciation. "...Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish."(Ephesians 5:25-27). Again, I think of the unconditional love of Christ for the church and it appear the Church is fast forgetting that Christ is its head. God gave His only begotten son for your redemption and His son- Jesus Christ submitted Himself as a sacrifice  for humanity. The sincere question I like you answer is, What have you given Him in return? I remember this song,  "I Gave My Life for The...

LIGHT!

A popular question in this part of the world is, "...is there light?" This often arises as a result of the epileptic nature of electricity supply we often experience. More than that, you may be familiar with such shout as "Up NEPA!", meaning electricity has just been restored. Other times, it could be "Ahaaa!", "Ohhh!", "Hmmm", it signals light out unexpectedly. All these point to the necessity of light. Light is indispensable, in fact, God during the creation activities had to create light first. "And God said, Let there be light: and there was light."(Genesis 1:3). In short, where there is no light, nothing or very little can be done. I remember an occasion of travelling at night with a bad vehicle headlamp, can you imagine, the journey was slow and quite frustrating. The truth we must come to know and accept is that "Ye [we] are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid."(Matthew 5:14). ...

HE SHOWS UP

When the wicked papetrate their wickedness, they don't factor God in the evil agenda. But one thing I am sure of, God shows up, appears, intervene and fight for His Children. When Haman was to plan for Mordecai's execution through the gallow project, he never thought of the God of the Jews (Our Almighty Father). God showed up, to Haman's wildest surprise, his family and the community, God turned it all against Him. He died the death he was cooking for God's Children (Esther 7:10 Read Chapter 3-7 for the clear picture). Are you one of God's child? Don't be perplexed by the antics of that wicked fellow or fellowship against you, Just as it has been, God is showing up on that  matter and they are going to be victims of their agenda. You are the victor and testimony, therefore, worry not and smile on... It appears you are forgetting too soon, Daniel was ganged up against by some wicked men of the Babylonia empire. They instigated and formulated a decree just to di...
