Christianity cross contamination

Testimony Time:-A very good day to you all and welcome to another Monday. Without any doubt, today is not just an ordinary day but one that is besieged with thoughts over the Paris attacks which took place last Friday. The attacks may have bedraggled the world with reflective resilience, its effects will forever be etched on the world peace. Besides, the culpable effects of this new wave of terror will have severe repercussions on the way ordinary citizens go about they daily ways of life. Whatever view anyone may have, the most potent one is that of cross contamination. We have them irrespectively against every religious background. The effects are very poignant in every religious movements. It allows the possibility of celebrating misconception, failures, weaknesses, unrighteousness, pride, arrogance and lack of integrity against the ideals of liberty, equality and fraternity. As we continue to live with the fear of cross contamination, let us remember that Jesus shared the same fear in His teachings in Matthew 24:9-13. Which states “Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death,and you will be hated by all nations because of me. At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. Let me now use this medium to employ everyone to pray and also share in the grief of the French people. This is because the terror that took benign berth in France dockyard, knocks very deeply into the eyes of the freedom to live. Our thoughts and prayers also goes to those whose lives have been affected one way or the other with the carnage administered by those who have tried so much to deface the world peace. Let us not get too carried away though; time itself is still counting, days are still rolling and men are still thinking. The most important question for time to answer is where the cross contamination leads everyone and where we end up with, in thoughts and in deeds? However, let us always remind ourselves in every decision we may take that the death can no more say thank you even though we all have sacrifices to make. We must know the true salvation from this onslaughts can only come from God. May the Lord heal the world from all effects of cross contamination in every religion in Jesus name.

Beyond the quiet flip

Testimony Time:-Good morning everyone and welcome to another day. Clearly, it has been a quiet flip over from day 13 to 14 in the Month of November and the year 2015. However and very rightly too, those who are called after the name of Christ, can claim to have been called directly or indirectly by God. And today, the same God have chosen to strengthen us by giving us the power to push until we become a living witness and then be able to see the birth of another day. Categorically, it does not matter at what length or stage you may have been called and by whatever means the Lord may have deployed to make you His own. What matters now is if you are fit enough to maintain your calling before the Creator of Heaven and Earth and the Everlasting King. Let me reiterate, in the very first instance and as a child of God, God would have had to purge us of certain spirit/darkness so that we can be toned to His standard. The overall essence is to allow the Holy Spirit to take preeminence in our lives. From then on, working and walking with God therefore depends so much on how much one can nurture the Silent Spirit of God in us with the fruits of righteousness. Primarily, this is so that we can "be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ-to the glory and praise of God". (Philippians 1:10-11) Therefore, if after you have met with Christ and you again decide to miss your road, there is a problem! Unless there is a divine intervention, one is bound to miss his/her road forever. We can draw inference from the story of Saul in 2 Samuel 3:1. Having been called and chosen as a king over the people of Israel, Saul chose to miss his road again before the presence of the Lord. What happened was-the rightful Spirit of the Lord deserted him in a manner that saw "David prospering and growing always stronger and stronger, but the house of Saul decaying daily". At this stage, and if we must be reassured, the same God still operates till now. And that is because we serve the Lord who cannot change position. His reign is from everlasting to everlasting, so where can you hide? Ecclesiastes 3:11 buttresses this point-“He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end". Psalm 103:17 also claim that "the steadfast love of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear him, and his righteousness to children’s children" Now the choices are clearly apparent. You can either denounce the instructions of God in a way that can be likened to that of Saul and then begin to decay daily without your understanding and or knowing/accepting the issues. Or you can choose to uphold His righteousness by walking and working with His Holiness, and then flourish like David. May the Grace of God enliven our souls with His righteousness and make our hearts fit enough so that the Holy Spirit can continue to reside in us in Jesus name. Amen Http://testimony-times.blogspot.co.uk http://timetoreachmyheart.blogspot.co.uk Just Checking in into His Presence...

What should be more important in life (Steve Jobs)

Testimony Time:-Good morning again and welcome to another privilege before the Lord. Against every presupposition, I was pressed to share this message as I have received it. And let me add at this point that you will not understand it fully, unless you are patient enough to read to the end. Before going on, I want us to understand that when I write, share and or broadcast any message, I do so not from the view of someone who is free from what my messages tend to portray, but as a man who is culpable to carry some guilt and or be overburdened with some sins. I also write as a man who have seen it all, met with Christ and continue to work relentlessly to assuage records of his past sins, not to reoccur in the new race for the Kingdom. A man that now puts all his trust in the Lord, serving Him with joy, believe, faith and faithfully looking unto Him like everyone, so that at every stage; the Lord can continue to faithfully keep His covenant upon me, my household and above all-upon the Church through which I have received my calling. Like Apostle Paul in Philippians 3:7-14, "I consider those thing that were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ. Yet indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I may gain Christ and be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith;" "that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death, if, by any means, I may attain to the resurrection from the dead. Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me" "Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. My messages do not cast aspersions like many others. They are not pre planned but hatched daily under the guidance and inspiration of God. Occasionally, it comes using some poetic devices. They represent avenues where many can choose to develop their faith in Christ, and more often than not, they are messages that turns me inside out going through them again and again. And until our final breathe; no one, absolutely no one! is immune from any trials, temptations and the antics of Satan. Therefore, I want to encourage you even further, to "Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily; and you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power." (Colossians 2:8-10) Having cleared what could generate some misconceptions, please take time to read the following message as shared by a friend. I am sure it will put your Christian Faith on a new pedestal. 11/9/15, 10:27:58 PM: Cole: Steve jobs’ Last Words - "I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In others’ eyes, my life is an epitome of success. However, aside from work, I have little joy. In the end, wealth is only a fact of life that I am accustomed to. At this moment, lying on the sick bed and recalling my whole life, I realize that all the recognition and wealth that I took so much pride in, have paled and become meaningless in the face of impending death. In the darkness, I look at the green lights from the life supporting machines and hear the humming mechanical sounds, I can feel the breath of god of death drawing closer… Now I know, when we have accumulated sufficient wealth to last our lifetime, we should pursue other matters that are unrelated to wealth… Should be something that is more important: Perhaps relationships, perhaps art, perhaps a dream from younger days ... Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just like me. God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth. The wealth I have won in my life I cannot bring with me. What I can bring is only the memories precipitated by love. That’s the true riches which will follow you, accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on. Love can travel a thousand miles. Life has no limit. Go where you want to go. Reach the height you want to reach. It is all in your heart and in your hands. What is the most expensive bed in the world? - "Sick bed" … You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear the sickness for you. Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost – "Life". When a person goes into the operating room, he will realize that there is one book that he has yet to finish reading – "Book of Healthy Life". Whichever stage in life we are at right now, with time, we will face the day when the curtain comes down. Treasure Love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends... Treat yourself well and Cherish others." We are here today, tomorrow who knows? We are singing today, who knows what tomorrow will be. If the rich people claims to have lacked God at some point in their lives, what of you who is rich in God? And to conclude, just how rich is your value before Him and your friends? May the Lord enrich us with His Grace so that the race to the Lord's Kingdom can be a pleasant one in Jesus name. Amen Just checking in into His Presence...

Learning from a £50 note

Testimony Time:-Good morning friends and welcome to a brand new day. The message today was made quite easy for me, it has to do with a write up lifted by a friend and the source unknown. Although, I have seen the same message many years back, I want to believe it is appropriate to share because the theme is peculiar, direct and quite poignant. The topic itself deals with two important management lessons one can learn from a £50 note:- 1. It happened some time ago. I was in an audience listening to a motivational speaker. The speaker got his wallet out and pulled out a £50 note. Holding it up, he asked, "Who wants this £50 note?" Lots of hands went up. Including mine. A slow chorus began to build as people began to shout "Me!" "Me!" I began to wonder who the lucky one would be and who the speaker would choose. And I also secretly wondered (and I am sure others did too ) why he would simply give away £50. Even as the shouts of "I want it" grew louder, I noticed a young woman running down the aisle. She ran up onto the stage, went up to the speaker, and grabbed the fifty pound note from his hand. "Well done, young lady," said the speaker into the microphone. The speaker simply said "Most of us just sit and wait for good things to happen. That's of no use. You've got to make things happen. Make a move" 'Simply thinking about doing something is of no use and not good enough'. Our lives are like that. We all see opportunities around us. We all want the good things. But the problem is we don't take action. We all want the £50 notes on offer. But we don't make the move. We look at it longingly. Get up, and do something about it. Don't worry about what other people might think. Take action! 2. Later, the speaker got another £50note and held it up for all to see. I thought I know what's up. But he just asked a simple question. "How much is this worth?" "Fifty pounds!" the crowd yelled in unison. "Right," said the speaker. He then took the note and crumpled it into a ball and asked "How much is it worth now?" "Fifty pounds " screamed the audience. He then threw the note on the ground, stamped all over it and picked up the note and asked one more time: "And how much is it worth now?" "Fifty pounds !" was the response. "I want you to remember this," said the speaker. "Just because someone crumples it, or stamps on it, the value of the note does not diminish. We should all be like the £50note.. In our lives, there will be times when we feel crushed, stamped over, beaten. But never let your self-worth diminish. Just because someone chooses to crush you - that doesn't change your worth one bit! Don't allow your self-worth to diminish because someone says something nasty -- or does something dirty -- to you." Never let your self-worth diminish... Above all, never let your faith and trust in God dwindle because God's Grace is always very sufficient for us. 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 Buttresses the point and "He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong". May we have valuable essence in the Presence of the Lord so that we can continue to live each day filled with the blessings of the Lord in Jesus name. Amen Just checking in into His Presence...

Daily prescription...

Testimony Time:-Good morning everyone and welcome to the Unstoppable Presence of our Lord. Today, you have received another invitation to flourish in His Presence; but first, you must accept His Supremacy over everything before you can enjoy and also share in His Presence. To share in His undeniable and indiscriminate presence requires a very adequate election in the realm of the Spirit, the method of voting is through a Spiritual Ballot and all participants must have walked righteously and in holiness too. Every day must therefore be seen as a daily prescription from God so that those who claim to know and follow God must also show their love for Him through their daily attributes. They must be seen to be following a due process which involves an election to be able to gain admission into His Spiritual Camp. Taking part in this election is very easy but it does not automatically qualifies or confirms any identity in Christ. However, it's process can always portray whose calling you have received and or operating upon; whether it is of Satan or of Gods? If truly you are in Christ, the attestations of Apostle Paul in 2 Peter 1: 3-11 should not be strange to you. And that is because "His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature,having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires". "For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But whoever does not have them is nearsighted and blind, forgetting that they have been cleansed from their past sins." "Therefore, my brothers and sisters, make every effort to confirm your calling and election. For if you do these things, you will never stumble, and you will receive a rich welcome into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ". Amen Just checking in into His Presence...

Everyday is a gift.

Testimony Time:-Good morning friends in the Tabernacle of the Most High God and welcome to a new day in the presence of our Lord. It is not untrue that what humans fail to realize is that the Lord offers each day to us as a gift in a pattern that is wholly and acceptable to us. In return, He expects those who dwell within the premises of "the gift of the day" to have significant attributes which can be offered as a befitting offering unto God Himself. However, Satan stands as hurdles in the way of every Christian; ready to spoil, smear and destroy the pattern of their days in the acceptable presence of the Lord. He is out whistling, primarily for those outside the Church, but those who listens to his voice are those who are well seated in the Church. By declaration and in practice, if you are not attached to any other religion that fails to recognize the Supremacy of our Lord; you must "Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour." (1 Peter 5:8). His interest are to purposely stain the gift of God which would then make the righteousness in you incomparable to Abel's offering of righteousness, in the Book of Genesis 4:4. In an audacious version, Christ have raised us up to undo the work of the darkness within the daily encounter of our presence before the Lord. Therefore and according to Titus 2:7-8, I want to encourage you to "Show yourself in all respects to be a model of good works, and in your teaching show integrity, dignity, and sound speech that cannot be condemned, so that an opponent may be put to shame, having nothing evil to say about us". And so shall it be in Jesus name. Amen Just checking in into His Presence...

Beyond the appearance.

Testimony Time:-Good morning Children of Grace and welcome to another weekend in the presence of the Lord. I am sure you will all agree with me that everyone attests to the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Even the unbelievers use the name of God to reinforce their beliefs in every of their make believe trade. It is therefore the case that the stories of being unrighteous has always had some connotations that revolves round the name of God. Very clearly, it is not so much about what you did before you chose to become a Child of God, but the attributes of your conduct having declared your faith in Christ. In retrospect, Saul was a gangster before he met with God on the way to Damascus, an occurrence that later changed his life and his name in a dramatic fashion. He was later to be known and called Apostle Paul. Against this backdrop, it is quite possible that Saul was present for the trial of Stephen. Luke in his account opined that Stephen’s executioners in Acts 7:58 laid their garments at the feet of Saul. This action was accepted gleefully and with much notoriety that offered full approval to the mob’s murderous actions by Saul(Acts 8:1)." "Saul later ravaged the church, entering the homes of believers and committing them to prison. Saul’s anti-Christian zeal motivated him not only to arrest and imprison male Christians but to lock up female believers as well (Acts 8:3)." The same Saul, now popularly known and called Apostles Paul became a motivational speaker, writer, preacher and counselor for Christ. He never looked back having been called and converted into Christianity. It is one thing to be called, it is another to accept and also declare the intention to serve God righteously. If Saul whose name was synonymous to a gangster can then serve appropriately in His Presence, changing history to win souls for Christ, there is absolutely no one that the Lord cannot use, only we must prepare our hearts by eschewing all bitterness, strife, backbiting etc. so that the Holy Spirit can take preeminence in our lives. One must give way to the other, which one will it be? The Spirit of God or the evil spirit? The choice is yours! May the Spirit of God be potent enough in us to drive out the tendencies to remain captive to the evil spirit. Amen Just checking in into His Presence...

Seedtime

Testimony Time:-Good morning Children of Grace and welcome to another Seedtime. Genesis 8:22 declares that "As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease." And so we have seen the beginning of another day, don't forget that it's going would be like a fleeting glance and it's end, pretty much like the day before. Its presence however, brings its existence in consonance with the victory of the previous night; and suddenly this has now become what we call yesterday. We must know, and this is according to the Purpose of the Lord that the intention of the day is to live, eventually it fizzles out at some point. This will continue to be, as long as the earth endures. By the same token, all Christians will surfer the same fate; before each eye, every life will be snuffed out-merely going the same way like the day before. Remember, the life of that day began so ecstatically at first. However, Christians can still choose to allow the rise and fall of each day to have meaningful bearing in their conducts and relationship with God. Their guard of honor therefore must always be synonymous to accepting the True Word of God which is life; as opposed to what the mundane things of this world represent. The results are melancholic in nature, very often leading to crisis and or death. Psalm 19:7-11 and Proverbs 30:5 gives significant insight into how the Mind of God works- 7 The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple. 8 The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes. 9 The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether. 10 More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb. 11 Moreover by them is thy servant warned: and in keeping of them there is great reward. "Every word of God is flawless; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him" (Proverbs 30:5) If we are fond of taking medicines for remedies so that we can be free from any unnecessary ailments, why can't all Christians rely on the Word of God so that their salvation can be assured? It is not surprising that many pretends not to know that this singular act puts them in charge of the second death which guarantees eternity. Besides, it also offers alternative remedy to death. Ultimately, this is a sign and a chance for real Christians to give testimony of their victory over death (1 Corinthians 15:12-14). There is no coming back to whoever gets to this stage! Therefore, let us work hard to fulfill the works of righteousness when we can still harvest, during our Seedtime. Lord at this Seedtime, give us the wisdom to know that we are Seeds in Your Presence. Therefore Father, let us be fruitful in purpose and for Your Kingdom. Amen Just checking in into His Presence...

Salvation is not automatic

Let those who wants to hear therefore accept that the message of hope revolves round the perception surrounding what we must do to attain salvation. Against some perception, salvation is not automatic and does not involve any act of religiosity. There were some preachers who preached before Christ. They failed in the efforts to convince the humanity. Christ also came, He was mutilated because of the messages that would have given us hope in achieving our salvation. Now we are left with the Holy Spirit that convicts us instantly upon every unrighteousness, men flagrantly displays nonchalance. When would men begin to hear and abide by the Word of truth? Just checking in into His Presence...

The true life company

Testimony Time:-It is another good morning and very kindly, God has brought us into another day with the hope that we might see and understands its value (Lamentation 3:22-23). The first true life company that God created and gave to man is the value of each day. Along the line, whatever happens to the value of each day in the Presence of God ultimately dictates how relevant the day is. These can be in thoughts, in deeds and beliefs. Nevertheless, these have proven to inadvertently overrides how we proceed and respond to every second of the day. God on the other hand, empowers us to choose according to our whims and caprices as we march through the race of time. Our daily encounter with Him is of utmost importance even though men are so used to keeping, nursing and brooding over thoughts that are so disparaging to the value of life, all against the Lord principles? Could it therefore be safe to conclude that for the rise and fall of each day, men have become susceptible to losing the day to values necessitated by the blood of man and not the Blood of Jesus? Historically and since the fall of Adam and Eve in the Book of Genesis chapter 3, men have always preferred to run after the mundane things of this world- "serving and using eye service" purportedly coined using the blood of man and things very favorite to the eyes of men. It is not uncommon to be unable to deal with failures that stems from these attributes. In as much as pews in churches are filled with the same categories of people which are set apart from members of our different households. If you are spoken about illicitly, it means you are relevant. So we found the Sadducees and the Pharisees have spoken ills about Christ, today we cannot get to our Father in heaven except through Him. We still have Sadducees in this modern times and their actions are still very prevalent. In such situation therefore I say- don't despair if indeed you rely on the Blood of Jesus and the Word on the Cross. "For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God." (1 Corinthians 1:18) Apart from that, the Bible describes a man's enemies will be the members of his own household, how much more those whose casual acquaintances in your Church or work environment have suddenly turned them to irrelevant heroes. The onus on them is to determine and also coin a new name for the Lord you truly serve. The darkness in them cannot comprehend the gifts of God deposited in you because they serve the blood of man and not the Blood of Jesus Christ. (Micah 7:6 & Matthew 10:36). Let me assure those who are caught with this dilemma to continue their hope in the LORD according to Micah 7:7- " Therefore I will look unto the Lord; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me". because God will always turn the sins of evil people back on them in Jesus name. Amen (Psalm 94:23) Let me therefore leave you with this stanza from "Courage, Brother, do not stumble- Some will hate thee, some will love thee, Some will flatter, some will slight; Cease from man, and look above thee: Trust in God and do the right.

When the Lord speaks, can you hear?

Testimony Time:-A very good day to you all and let me also welcome you to the beginning of a new week. It is very true that many may find the day's development very strange. They will therefore try so much to attribute their self belief in relation to the extreme thoughts they may have. These are exclusive to nature but powered through the obvious growth of their daily experience. One thing is certain though, and that is-the Lord speaks to us using things that He created. This could be anything- ranging from the weather, thoughts, dreams, prophesies and sermons, just to mention a few. Any of the methods can be very loud and quite near, yet they can be very distant. As s result, ordinary Christians can miss messages of God that concerns vision even though they have eyes that can be described as sharp, intrusive and piercing to the core. Not to talk of messages of hope that has to do with listening and feelings. Whatever method God decides to use, messages of God can come in the form of a fleeting breadth which can be potent and capable of having long lasting results. On the other hand, if such message is missed, the result can be very catastrophic. Christ message is clear in every of the form. John 8:12 states "Jesus once again addressed them: “I am the world’s Light. No one who follows me stumbles around in the darkness. I provide plenty of light to live in.” Clearly, every message of God that is denounced brings such person into darkness, and without saying-where darkness is evidenced, there is bound to be confusion. Are you confused? Do you have Jesus? Have you received Him into your life? Remember, being overtly religious has nothing to do with the degree of faith in you that can justify your salvation. Please pray this prayer- Speak to me by name, O Master, Let me know it is to me; Speak, that I may follow faster, With a step more firm and free, Where the Shepherd leads the flock In the shadow of the Rock! Amen Just checking in into His Presence...

Serving the Lord in words and in deeds?

Testimony Time:-A very good morning to you all and let me welcome you to another establishment of the Lord in the year 2015. To many, today is just another day but a brand new day. To some, it is another month- a brand new month. And there are those who sees today in terms of a withering year and they are justified in their thoughts to do so. Today can therefore be described as a new day within the penultimate month which will eventually take us into the year 2016. However, it is another testimony time as we have been empowered to check into the presence of the Lord for the first time in November 2015. Let us be reminded that everyday is filled with the presence of the Lord and attached to them are different kinds of reward. If every believer must see and enjoy the glory of God, they must soak themselves in the newness of the Grace of God daily. In practice, they must be overwhelmed by the wordings of Colossians 3:17 "And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him. What is today in terms of your expectations in the presence of the Lord? We must remember that as Christians our faith in Christ have been redeemed with a price in the blood of Jesus Christ. " God sent him to buy freedom for us who were slaves to the law, so that he could adopt us as his very own children."Galatians 4:5 While I wish you all a happy new month, may we enjoy and continually be linked to the story of our adoption in Christ in Jesus name. Amen Just checking in into His Presence...

Desires, determination and success...

Testimony Time:-It is another good morning to everyone and let me quickly remind you all that today marks the end of one of the ember months. Coincidentally too, this new day announces the importance of a claim that we have just two valid months before 2016 is ushered in, but all in the presence of the Lord. In my message today, I want to remind all Christians that while chasing their desires within the determination to live and succeed, to be happy and live a peaceful life coupled with the assurances of the blessing of the Lord on their side: What those who attests to the powerful name of God must also not forget is-they must have the same willingness in their determination to accept the faith in Jesus Christ as prescribed through the Bible. John 3:18 says "Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God's one and only Son". Just wondering what else we want from God if we have the determination to live. Obviously, there are inherent dangers and challenges, if intrinsically we shun the drive to believe and have faith in Him Who only has the power to make us walk into our Promise. When troubles comes, ask yourself first, when crisis looms, ask yourself. And before you ask Jesus! Have you asked yourself? Then ask Jesus! It is only then you will gain the freedom to walk into your promise. Surely, there is absolutely nothing too hard for Him to accomplish. "I am the LORD, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me?"-Jeremiah 32:27 Today, your pride may lie in the gifts of your daily existence. Remember, we die daily, although we may not notice. (1 Corinthians 15:31) We may rely on the power of our beauty, position,family, influence, wealth and any gifts God may have given to us. Just remember, we brought nothing into this world and nothing will be taken out. (1 Timothy 6:7) Or could it be wisdom, hearsay, backbiting, suspicion, lustful desires-including adultery and fornication, hatred, cheating, lies and greed-just to name a few. Remember, as much as God can love, so also He can disown if we choose to disown His Precepts. Matthew 10:33 states "But whoever disowns me before others, I will disown before my Father in heaven". God disowned Eve in Genesis 3:16 and Saul in 1 Samuel 13 & 15 when his position became a negative symbiosis to that of Samuel. Today, which way have you disowned God and in what pattern have you polluted the Words of truth? Before you continue to chase life recklessly, stop and consider if you have the same amount of determination in running after the Words of Truth, albeit in the name of God. Therefore today Lord, Make us holy by Your Truth; teach us Your Word, which is Truth. Amen (John 17:17) Just checking in into His Presence...
