Revealing His Truth

 WHERE DO I LOOK? (6)   HUMILITY AND EXALTATION Maybe you have just been pursuing it in blunders. I mean the exaltation, honour, lifting and dominion you seek. I am also sure you are committed to paying the price for what you seek, but you just have to be sure you are not paying the wrong price for your desired treasure.  Calm down please! There is a price for that honour and lifting you desire. Developing a modest view of one's self is a process in progress to exaltation and making ourselves of no reputation is a prerequisite for divine lifting. When our humility is sincere, it touches God, it communicates with Christ's nature and attracts divine lifting. In our days, it is common to mention than manifest Humility. The truth is, with more or less consciousness, this fruit of Grace or spiritual virtue- Humility is getting quickly shortchanged for pride, self-exaltation, and high mindedness. These opposites have gained popular expression in believers, such that trying to i...

  CHRISTIAN TRIBULATIONS Why should Christians undergo tribulations, pains and sufferings? Tribulations are the sufferings, pains, distresses, sorrows we undergo as a result of persecutions and afflictions; these are trials. Just as with you, everyone chooses to enjoy nothing short of peace, joy and satisfaction here on earth and even in the life after(Eternity), for those who have embraced the Love and Grace of Jesus Christ.  These amiable desires are distorted when challenges arise and man's heart is fixed in between faith and hope for victory and triumph. Just a reminder, "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1). Permit my sharing with you the difference between victory and triumph. Triumph is the celebration and jubilation that follows after a victory has been won. Here, we can see Jesus, "... having spoiled [won victory over] principalities and powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in ...

 WHERE DO I LOOK? (5)   LOOK AND LIVE! Living God's purposed life on earth can only be a reality by looking unto Him- JESUS. Our living for Him is anchored on our looking on Him. We look to Him and be like Him. "But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the LORD" (2 Corinthians  3:18).The secret to living a glorious life here is by beholding Him because He is the source and giver of all Glory.  You see, Glory is not of this world, it is God's image and  anywhere you find anything glorious, there is a divine involvement. Only God gives and makes glorious. Keep this in mind, you only benefit of His Glory when you gaze or look to Him and you become His Glory when you behold Him wholeheartedly with open face. No wonder this scripture, Hebrews 12:2 _Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cr...

ON ALTAR CALLS Responding to this:   "With all sincerity..., do you believe people get saved through Altar Calls?... I attend a church where Altar Calls was not a practice." Altar Call does not guarantee salvation. It is perhaps an activity adopted in some Christian gathering to mark a sinner's U-turn from the life of sin to Godliness.  However, it is important we understand that before anyone responds to an Altar Call, he/she must have been inspired or touched by the sermon and prompted by the Spirit of God to surrender to JESUS, anything outside this is a mere fluke and not a product of Godly sorrow (2 Corinthians 7:10).  We may draw some light from the immediate evangelistic harvest that attended the apostolic ministry of Peter following the Pentecostal experience in the upper room of Jerusalem. The Bible records that  "... the multitude came together..."(Acts 2:6); probably out of curiosity, astonishment and criticism which would result in mockery and acquis...
