EXAMINE YOURSELF

WHAT SHALL WE SAY THEN? SHALL WE CONTINUE IN SIN, THAT GRACE MAY ABOUND? GOD FORBID. HOW SHALL WE, THAT ARE DEAD TO SIN, LIVE ANY LONGER THEREIN? ROMANS 6:1-2 You might not understand the "whys" or the how of what you are passing through now. But just like Job honoured God, so you should as well, and in the end God will honour you. We never know when we are in the midst of our pain and suffering what the source is or who is to blame.Our response shouls mirror Job's trust in God and believe He will use your pain to bring about His perfect will in your life. Always remember everything has repercussions, the sin of Adam and eve flow through mankind. When Abraham refused to wait for his Isaac, the repercussions flow through. This I say then, walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. But if ye be led off the Spirit,ye are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are manifest. Is God good? Yes! We can see and feel His goodness all around us. Then why does evil exist all around us today? It is as a result of our disobedience to God's Commands

THE GIFT OF GOD

WHEREFORE I PUT THEE IN REMEMBRANCE THAT THOU STIR UP THE GIFT OF GOD WHICH IS IN THEE BY THE PUTTING OF MY HANDS. 2TIMOTHY1:6 Stirring up the gift of God is similar to stirring God's power at work in a person's life for the perfection of the saints. "God's gifts put man's best dreams to shame" beloved; there is something in you that can put your shame to shame if only you will discover that thing. We all have talents and abilities. A key to usefulness is making our talents available to God. Your talents may be building friendship! engaging conversations, answering questions, inspiring people, or telling stories. God certainly can use those. It is pathetic today that most believers are carrying God's gifts in them! Many believers are not aware of the wonderful deposit of God 's gift in their lives, therefore these gifts are laying waste in their lives. The Bible says "A man's gift makes room for him, and brings him before great men, Proverbs 18:16. Beloved, stir up the gift in you, put them to action! And people will see the glory of God in your life.

YOUR MOTIVATION

AND THROUGH I BESTOW ALL MY GOODS TO FEED THE POOR, AND THOUGH I GIVE MY BODY TO BE BURNED AND HAVE NOT CHARITY, IT PROFITETH ME NOTHING. 1 CORINTHIANS 13:3 The motive behind our gift is more important than the gift itself. If you give all of your goods to feed the poor, or if you make the ultimate sacrifice of giving your life for someone else, and is not motivated by love, your gift will profit you nothing. Many Christians give faithfully but never see the hundredfold return that the Lord promised because of wrong motives (Mark 10:29-30). God loves a cheerful giver not one who gives grudgingly or out of dept (2Corinthians 9:7). Jesus gave us the key to purifying our motives. Jesus said but when thou does not alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth Matthew 6:3. Giving in a manner in which you will not recieve recognition for your gifts will gurantee that your motives are right and grant you the true joy that comes through selfless giving Act 20:24. Ask the Lord to show you an opportunity today to give a kind word or a helping hand to someone who will not be able to repay you and others will never know about it. This could be a motorist in a traffic jam, a spouse, a child who won't even notice your kind deed, or any number of other people. Opportunities are all around us.

SUPERNATURAL ABILITY

HOW GOD ANIOTED JESUS OF NAZARETH WITH THE HOLY GHOST AND WITH POWER: WHO WENT ABOUT DOING GOOD AND HEALING ALL THAT WERE OPPRESSED OF THE DEVIL. FOR GOD WAS WITH HIM. ACTS 10:38 In the presence of God there is liberty. The presence of God in the life of a man makes him to operate supernaturally. The presence of God with the Isrealites caused heaven to be opened. The supernatural power of God flows in the direction of those who have genuine encounter with God on regular basis. Through this unusual power can come upon you as a gift, it is activated and operated by prayer and fasting. To be for God and against the devil, we must be much with God. Our ability to overcome and subdue satanic agents and their demonic operations lies in our regular and uninterrupted contact with God's anointing which is availabe in His presence.

DON'T TAKE GOD FOR GRANTED

BECAUSE SENTENCE AGAINST AN EVIL WORK IS NOT EXECUTED SPEEDILY, THEREFORE THE HEART OF THE SONS OF MEN IS FULLY SET IN THEM TO DO EVIL ECCL 8:11 The fact that God does not punish us immediately we sin should not make us assume that sin does not have consequences, or that God does not care. If punishment for a crime is delayed people feel it is safe to do evil. God is holy and righteous and hates sin in all its forms He knows everything we do, both good and bad, and will one day require us to give an account of all our actions. Sin has terrible consequences and to avert those consequences, one should genuinely repent and begin to live for God. Romans 2:4 says or do you think lightly of the riches of His kindness and tolerance and patience, not knowing that the kindness of God leads you to repentence? Let God's goodness towards you motivate you to turn away from sin. Beloved heaven is real hell is real the choice is yours?

YOUR MOUNTAIN AN OPPORTUNITY

NOW THEREFORE GIVE ME THIS MOUNTAIN.FOR IN HIS STRENTH I WILL SURELY CONQUER IT, IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME! JOSHUA 14:12 Caleb never looked at the size of the mountain, but he looked at how big God was before the mountain. He knew that with God all things are possible, and under the anointing of the Holy Spirit it will become as level ground before him. David and Caleb had a different spirit than those who saw an object as a mountain, while caleb and david saw mountain as opportunities for God show Himself strong on their behalf, and for them to climb their mountain and overcome it in His strenth. What is your Goliath? What moumtain tries to stop you from entering into the promises of God? Rise up like David and slay the giant, take courage and draw strength from God like Caleb, who had a different spirit in him and took possession of the promises of God, Beloved tell your mountain that it will become level ground like Zerubbabel. Stand tall and declare with a roar of victory as Caleb and the Lord shall give you victory.

STAND FIRM

WATCH YEA, STAND FAST IN THE FAITH, QUIT YOU LIKE MEN, BE STRONG 1 CORINTHIANS 16:13 The Bible gave us a concept in the book of Ephesians chapter 6 vs 11; it says we should "put on the whole armor of God that yea may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.The word wiles" mean, "schemes" of the devil...The plan Satan and his agents have set for you as a Christain.Do not be deceived by the physical things that you see because many profess to be Christain and claimed to have a Christ like attitude and are still compromising with the world. They are pretending to be holier than thou in the church, Many Christians today still visits clubs and parties...since they believed that nobody can see them in the night, if nobody sees you and you get away with it God since everything. Beloved, we do not know when the trumpet will sound and the saints will be raptured. How exactly do you want to explain yourself as a Pastor a reverend, a born again brothers and sister and you were not able to rapture with our Lord Jesus Christ. We need to stand firm. Satan is very intelligent. He knows our weakness more than us. Do not give up to deceit. He can enticed you with the things of the world, but do not allow him back into your life. Stand firm and the Lord will be with you. Check yourself every day and read your bible. He will use anything to get more people into hell. You will not be a candidate of hell in the name of Jesus.

RECIEVE JESUS

BUT AS MANY AS RECIEVED HIM, TO THEM GAVE THE POWER TO BECOME THE SONS OF GOD, EVEN TO THEM THAT BELIEVE ON HIS NAME: JOHN 1:12 The Bible is filled with promises for those who love God reiterates the benefits and rewards both in this life and our eternal inheritance. Many inheritance is in the bible and the children of God are not claiming it at all. These are there to show and prove to us that God does indeed love us. God continuously expresses His love towards us in so many ways. He even showed it by allowing His begotten Son to be beaten and and nailed on the cross for us. Just because of His great love for us. Since we know that God is seeking our good, we are then freed from our self-centered world view and can then put our focus on expressing our love towards God. Almost always, God gives a command with a promise. We do not have to ask for the promises, God has already stated. His desire to give us what He promised. Just do the right thing and all of those promises will be yours. We need to ask God to work within us so that we can do His will and keep His commands. God has expressed the depth of His love towards us so that we can have the confidence to die to ourselves and seek God's will. We give ourselves to God knowing that He has given and continue to give of Him to us. “God so loved the world that he gave is only begotten Son {John 3:16]..... Now the present question is, are you willing to love God And give? Set your heart on asking God to acomplish His plan in your life and rest in the confidence that God already has provided for your satisfaction. Seek God's Kingdom and His righteousness and He will prove His promises to you.
