Revealing His Truth

A middle aged woman got amazed by the swift and 'magical' functions of an internet enabled phone, she would not waste further time in getting hers. She raised funds and purchased one for herself. Usually,  when such devices are brought, network providers make some free-to-web services available for its user. Funny enough, this woman enjoyed the free internet services on her phone for some weeks; perhaps, she never thought her new device came with a new obligation to re-new her data at intervals. It was not until the device rejected her free access to the world web, she discovered that surfing the web was not actually free without a daily, weekly or monthly data renewal. In the same way, a car owner would not only settle for the cost of buying the said vehicle but will bear in mind the attached expenses of regular fueling, renewing of vehicle particulars and of course, its maintenances.    Beloved, before talking about re-newing, you must have something you intend to rene...

...of the power and anointing of this resurrection season, it is real, powerful and limitless. The case of Lazarus of Bethany will help us understand what resurrection means, specifically when Christ had to affirm that He is "...the resurrection and the life" (John 11:25). Resurrection is bringing to life what is most certainly dead and lifeless.  You see, I am most concerned about the resurrection anointing and power, and you taking advantage of it this time. You must have heard, and if not, that about 2000 years ago the very Son of God- Jesus Christ was crucified, He suffered and died. His death and resurrection bequeathed salvation, deliverance, healing and the resurrection power to humanity. Since then, on the ticket of faith, humanity became beneficiaries of this power and anointing (Isaiah 53:2, Colossians 2:6-15). The resurrection power and anointing is still very much with us and particularly this season of easter, when we commemorate the death and resurrection of ...

The case of the man with a withered hand recorded in Mark 3:1-6, who experienced a miraculous transformation in his physical condition just like many others in scriptures. The Man's case is peculiar for our understanding here; his physical appearance got changed such that it became noticeable to all and the Pharisees particularly had to criticize and accuse the Healer (Jesus) for healing on the Sabbath. Beloved, transformation has to do with very visible physical, spiritual or societal change worthy of remarks. Perhaps you have heard this before, "the spiritual controls the physical" and also the national. A connecting implication is that their may not be a remarkable physical and societal transformation so desired by many without a spiritual transformation. I now see the reason why the scriptures exhorts us to be transformed.  "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable...

"...you can't beat them, join them", an ancient adage which may still be much relevant in circular affairs, but will never hold water in the Christian faith. This is simply because the non-conformist clause as believers principle for living has not and can never be changed, "For I am the lord, I change not..."(Malachi 3:6). Beloved, you need to know that God's unchanging nature does not only touch His healing, miraculous and prospering power and ability; it also places particular emphasis on God's principles for living of which one is our non-conformity to the world. "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."(Romans12:2). This is not just an expression but a commandment for God's children (believers), instructing us not to be given to the sinful practices and pleasures of this world but should rather stand out to imp...

One of the most common thing with people is worries. Human beings worry a lot, we worry over what we eat, wear, drink and virtually every thing. The truth remains that our worries can certainly change nothing. Situation never gets changed or pacified by our worries. "Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature."(Matthew 6:27) For me, I have learnt of two things that help change our conditions, that is prayers and trust in God- FAITH. These two works together. While you pray to God for your desires, you need to also trust in Him for the fulfillment of those desires. "Commit thy way unto the LORD (Pray); trust also in him (have faith in God); and he shall bring it to pass" (Psalm 37:5). It is therefore only through God that you can get the desires of your heart fulfilled.  No ways with worries in getting your desires fulfilled. I remember that song writer,                             ...

I have grown to understand as a young Christian that fighting is not good. Those days as children, we were taught to abstain from fighting and anything that is capable of causing it. All the same, as a Christian I have also grown to understand that their is the God's own fight, that is the fight that God carries out by Himself on behalf of His children. When God is involved in your fight, you don't do that yourself, God does it for you. Many of us get aggressive after been offended by a friend or neighbour, we will never allow offences pass without a commensurate retaliation. This is what often escalate to fights which the bible does not support. The scripture says clearly "The LORD shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace." (Exodus 14:14).God says He will fight for you because He doesn't want you to fight,  He says that so that you will not need to fight anybody, so that you won't feel cheated after been offended by a foe, so that you can always fi...

Most of the conclusions reached on matters of life in our world these days are often influenced by sight view, such that many people painfully, including believers are quickly ignoring and forgetting the power of faith possibilities, now giving focus to what they see (sight view) only, just like the biblical doubting Thomas who refused to believe the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ until he had to see Him. (John 20:24-29). We find in II Corinthians 5:7, "For we walk by faith, not by sight". Working by sight is unbelief, faithlessness and lack of trust in God. Faith is fully and persuasively believing in an expectation not yet seen, faith focuses its sight on God's unfailing and all-powerful and do-able ability.  The sight view, judgement and acceptance of your condition liquidates the power and possibilities of your faith. We must learn from Abraham who held on to God's promise for  an Issac and would never resort to a sight view of his physical state, age and...
