Checking into Gods Presence... 

Members of God's family, let it be known that through our faith alone and in Christ alone, we have direct access to our Heavenly Father because we have all been saved by Grace through faith."I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am He, ye shall die in your sins" (John 8:24), 

“For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast" (Ephesians 2:8-9) and "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). 

Jesus thought about us individually whilst He was on the Cross; although He did not sin, Jesus was willing to suffer in our place. Today, you are all invited to bear His testimonies through the Power of Right believing to gain access to all our wants through His heavenly grace.

Another beautiful year which began has just ended. A new one is bound to start and it will also end just has it started in a flash. Passages will come and go as sermons do come and go. Preachers stumble in and stumble out of churches, leaving footprints of what the Lord requires. 

Funny enough, as quickly as these are done, so our lives will be done. What we have left are the effects of all the prints we have left in the world. Jesus is the reason behind every season. He is knocking on your door which has no handle. 

This means it can only be opened from the inside by you and that puts the responsibility squarely on you. If you open the door, He will come in and sup with you and do great and mighty things (Ephesian 3:20) because He is the God of all flesh and with Him everything is possible.

May this New Year brings good news to your doors. Amen and 

Thank you for being part of the Testimony Time, God bless. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence... 

The message today is very simple. It encourages me to ask a question about what draws you to God. Are you a part time worshiper? Do you always remember God when there are challenges? 

Do you forsake Him when you think all hope is lost to run after other gods? At a time of plenty, do you still remember Him? Or are you one of those who believe there is no God or maybe you are one of those who walk around thinking you are God?

We all have our answers but I want us think very carefully. God is God and no one can be compared unto Him. Until you seek Him and find Him, one will be like a ship left on the sea without a paddle.

And as the year is withering, and the New Year is gradually rolling in, can l ask about what has taken you away from Christ? Remember Christ faced some tribulations as stated in (Luke 2:34-35), therefore no one is immune from occasional crisis. 

It is even evidenced that there are self-made and man-made crisis, and oftentimes we are bound to be infected by them. That is what we need to deal with and the way we respond to them determines the level of our faith with God. 

Hannah walked through manmade crisis as a result of intimidation from Penninah and David and the Prodigal Son passed through self-made crisis. In all, they were consistent in their drive and the Lord listened and also helped them to regain the so much awaited comfort.

What is your excuse? What lane are you that have not been occupied by someone before? Keep your faith and He will keep your dream. He did for Hannah, He did for Hagar, He did for Solomon and yours is next in Jesus Name. Amen

Wishing you all a happy and prosperous New Year in advance. Amen

I have been inspired to remind us all that when you worship, work and also walk with God, you gain a natural experience with Him. However, for you to gain His expertise you need to follow His precepts, and by so doing, you will naturally gain access to His hidden riches of heaven.

The choice to experience His testimonies rest solely on every individual. And while we walk towards welcoming the year 2024,  you will need to make that choice today because we don't know what tomorrow will be by this time tomorrow.

I wish you all the best in your experience today in His presence. May the new year brings solace, joy, peace, unsearchable comfort, riches, divine breakthrough and good health to our domain in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen Shalom

Checking into Gods Presence... 

As Christians, and even though we are still in the Christmas festive season, l encourage you all to eschew habits that hammer more on falsehood. It is equally bad when the truth is further stretched beyond pardon. 

In all, we are encouraged to have an open mind about issues without passing judgement because the only righteous person that ever lived is Christ Himself, and He was still crucified wrongfully.

Would you then believe that a lot of foundations have been destroyed over the issues of righteousness using the Name of Christ, and by so doing, we pull down ourselves and it does not matter where. 

Let the Lord be the judge when we fight for ourselves using the name of God. (Romans 12:2)

On this mercy day, I pray for the Holy Spirit to take possession of our hearts and remove bitterness, envy, jealousy, and pride, instead, infuse in us humility, love, riches, kindness, comfort, peace and everlasting joy in Jesus Name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence...  

On this Boxing Day, the presence of the day itself filled my heart and seduced me to writing. And whilst nodding to the overflow, I realized many feel pushed with horns when it comes to serving God and more importantly to come before Him and give thanks offering through their testimonies.

Let it be known that apart from the constant CCTV that monitors our behaviours for the prevention of crimes, there is also "God Watch", which is better than the CCTV because He sees both the heart and our outward conducts. (1 Samuel 16:7 

“and the Lord search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings.” Jeremiah 17:10)

Give the Lord His praise, for the creation of man was never beyond Him! Though the memories we have of this may have perished, we should use this Boxing Day to pray unto Him to come in His Might and remove the memories we have for vain things and allow His love to saturate our hearts in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence...  

Even as we celebrate the joy of this Christmas, we must also keep abreast of the fact that in the last days there will be times of difficulty, but we must also remember that Christ gave clear instruction as to how we can meet all our challenges through our devotion to His calling.

Joel 2:28-30 States, The Lord Will Pour Out His Spirit
28 [a] “And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
your old men shall dream dreams,
and your young men shall see visions.


29 Even on the male and female servants in those days I will pour out my Spirit. 30 “And I will show wonders in the heavens and on the earth, blood and fire and columns of smoke. 31 The sun shall be turned to darkness, and the moon to blood, before the great and awesome day of the Lord comes. 

32 And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there shall be those who escape, as the Lord has said, and among the survivors shall be those whom the Lord calls.

The Bible says each of us will receive the reward of our stewardship, whether it is good or bad. (Ecclesiastes 12:14) "For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil." 

I pray for the perfect joy of the season to saturate our lives and allow the reason for this season to perfect what is wailing, comfort and grant us peace all year round in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Merry Christmas and Happy and a prosperous New Year

Checking into Gods Presence...  

On this Christmas Eve and as we all rejoice in the glory of God with the gift of His presence by keeping us until this day. I want to personally thank Him for His mercies that are forever daily. 

In our various strides from January until now, we may have encountered challenges that occasionally make us feel neglected by Him. I can assure you that great are His faithfulness because His Hands are not short to the extent of not rendering any deliverance. 

But rather, our minds are just too far away to connect with His mercies to our detriment. How? Where was your mind in the church last Sunday? This point may be disturbing yes, if your mind is always far from your position then you are missing the grace. 

So also in every other relationships or tasks you may be performing. When the Lord says call unto me and I will answer thee and show you great and mighty things, He is appealing to your minds, when you give Him in times of challenges there will always be restitution.

Hannah did by giving the Lord her mind, her bareness was restored. The woman with the issue of blood did, by focussing her mind onto Jesus, thinking if only she could touch Jesus garment, her health will be restored and so was it.

And David did, even after sleeping with Bathsheba. He gave the Lord his mind by showing remorse for his sin. He was penitent and sang praises unto the Lord. With this type of sin that was unheard of, the Lord chose to call him a man after His own heart.

Today therefore and on this Lord’s Day, the Lord needs your minds. He knows your situation constantly needs His attention. No matter your challenges, He can only work with you if you are prepared to work with Him.

Today is another Christmas Eve oh Lord and we pray for the mercy surrounding the birth of Jesus Christ to overwhelme our minds and fulfill His glory in us in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence... 

It is so we enjoy His presence all of the time and we often fail to notice them all. Instead we greet His Works, Words, Love, Trust, Faithfulness and Righteousness with complaints and disdain.

It does not matter how much we are reminded about His original promise in Exodus 3:8 through astute men and women of God, but we fail usually to connect to the realm of His Grace.

Undoubtedly, this now becomes advantaged Satan who is the greatest enemy to our minds. Our minds when positioned with God, allows us to enjoy the realm of our faith and God's miracles abound. 

If they are occupied with the antics of the Devil through sin, Devil miracles manifest in the realm of fear which now becomes an entrapment to the good plans which God has for us. Jeremiah 29:11

Open our minds oh Lord and let us continue to flourish with Your grace. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence...  

It is another dawn to talk about our experience in the presence of our Lord. We may pretend not to know about this privilege. I can assure you that through His mercies we are not consumed.

Christ brought a message of hope to us. His life on earth demonstrated that those who believe in Him will not die and when they die they will live to receive the eternal Kingdom.

Today, I want to remind us that there is no other power under the heaven through which anyone can be saved except through Christ our Saviour.

Therefore, train your minds to accept Him, though our lives may be filled with errors, you can still experience His peace. Why? Simply because there is nothing like Divine errors.

May the power in the resurrection of the the Name Jesus Christ remove the unrighteousness in our names and fill us with what is His in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence... 


The inspirational topic today is about forgiveness. It has been a determining factor between us and the manifestation of the Grace of God upon us. The effects of which can be overwhelming.

When we fail to forgive as Christ taught us, it makes our hearts very impure straight away. 

That eliminates the presence of His Grace without us knowing.

Forgiveness is the key. It is certain that offence will be committed because of our human nature. Individual differences must take its course and it is the way we respond to these differences that makes us real Christians.



In the face of persecution and mutilation, Christ forgave and also performed miracle. He encouraged Peter to desist from drawing sword, either to kill or harm. For whoever kill or harm by the sword will surely receive the same punishment

.

This is peculiar to all. Let us see forgiveness as the key to our happiness because of its therapeutic nature. It will solve a lot of issues which also includes misconception.

 Our inabilities to let things go have constantly brought lots of displeasure. Court cases, harm, suppression, oppression, divorce, separation, extinction, alienation, murder, manslaughter, fighting and insurrection to mention but a few. 

So also is our inability to admit we are wrong and apologize.

If we constantly nag about the truth, you will stretch it beyond pardon and this will naturally cause discord. We must be able to make and accept peace offering whenever we see such. That in itself is Christianity!


May the power of God teach us His Word so we can always receive from Him. Amen

As the year is gradually winding to a close, it is another time to enjoy the comfort the Lord provides in the presence of today. Albeit that within these comforts, there will be challenges, but do you have the patience to hold forth until the thick cloud submerges?

The impatience we suffer when little itches occur brings further challenges into our paths. Patience is not only a virtue but a necessity for happy living. And so also in our desire to worship him we must exercise patience for us to enjoy His faithfulness.

I pray to God to fill us with what is of Him and remove traits that may prevent us from worshipping Him in faith, trust and believe in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence...  

As a result of God's Goodness, we have the grace to march into the the sixteenth day in the month of December, and in spite of all our complaints. 

However, we must realize that the world itself is made with series of complaints once we can enjoy economic upturns or downturns. And it is in our efforts to respond to the market stimuli’s that oftentimes brings a lot of pressures on the way we lead our lives in Christ. 

But know that Christ is the Key that can give rest to our souls. His waiting to lead us out of all challenges and give comfort to our souls (Isaiah 51:12). 

I pray that we shall experience comfort on all sides even as the year in withering and drifting to an end in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen.

Checking into Gods Presence... 

This new week, and in the run up to the end of the year, I would encourage us to draw courage in any situation we may be facing, even when we are at the very lowest ebb of our life. 

We must realize that no matter how brave one can be in life, there are occasions that we will enjoy some weaknesses. Christ, who we claim to be an example of our faith went through the same process. 

Our heavenly Father knows what agony and grief stands for in the sacrifice of His beloved Son in Jesus Christ and must understand when we enjoy a precarious situation.

The weaknesses that we enjoy represent the storm of life which often drives many to seek God. This is because some are there to correct and align us with the Author and Finisher of our faith. 

We stand to enjoy the Lord's opulence even in health when we take advantage of this opportunity. The eagles rise above the storm in the aerodynamic theory to overcome the obnoxious weather and we have to use the same skill to navigate ourselves out of every predicament. 

This can only happen when we have God as a Centre Point in our lives. God is a Comforter (Isaiah 51:12) who can give health to our souls but first we need to seek Him. Make peace with Him and make every weakness count as a weakness of faith in the knowledge, goodness and wisdom of God. 

We may make wrong judgement in life to occasion challenges, but that does not mean there is error in our design by God. Make no mistake; our heavenly Father makes no mistakes. 

Come unto Him, He is waiting to give rest to your souls (Mathew 11:28). All we need do is to seek Him and find Him. Do have a glorious and successful week in His presence in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence...  

It is another Sunday in His presence although we don't have to be in our churches to experience the Lord’s goodness. But clearly, we are present today before God but tomorrow is what we are not sure of, except by His grace.

But let me ask if your position with your old relationship have been erased into the path of unrighteousness? Do you still maintain your sanctification from the sins of guilt? 

Are you a new creation? Do you believe in Him? Are you comfortable with just attending Churches and all their program as ordinary Christian or your desire is to be divinely elevated whilst on the planet earth? 

To get to the position of guilt in the legal theory, causation is examined. This connects conducts with results. 

Naturally, we must then believe that when we suffer unbelief, there is always disobedience attached to our actions. Therefore, having a spirit of doubt plays an important role in the pedestal knowledge of our Maker.

However, God can still choose to carry us within His unsearchable riches only if we retrace our steps and allow His Senses which is everlasting to mould us in all our endeavours’. 



Here is an open invitation for you to enjoy His mercies. If you accept even in your state of unbelief (Isaiah 40:29), it will invoke the spirit of God to descend and you will begin to feel His presence (Isaiah 40:30-31). Without that, something will always be elusive- and that is the Spirit of God which assists in ALL prayers. 

Lord, we beseech You to empty us of ourselves and fill us with Yourself. Give us a new name by deleting all unrighteousness from our frame in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence...  

Without any doubt, it is another time for celebration because a new dawn is here named today.

Within our joy in the presence of Today, we want to look back on yesterday and see if we have done anything with anger that the repercussions are known today or have simply been postponed till tomorrow.

What have you said in anger that is hunting you as you enjoy His presence today? What have you done when your adrenalin is so pumped up that is now gripping and hurting you? What temporary victory have you gained in those moments, ruled in a state of anger?

Cain Killed Abel in one of such moment. Genesis 4:5 His punishment was to become a vagabond. It is such feat we now occupy if constantly we allow our temper to jade us. Consequently, we become culprits of our making. Can you imagine?

In your moment of rage therefore, what home have you built and destroyed? What relationship have you left in a state of disrepair? What about your church? Have you turned to a match made from a tree but now burns or ready to burn a tree that brings comfort?

If only our desire is to serve God, we will not institute litigation on His behalf. We must be ready to walk away and give credence for His name to shine. What fight are you fighting for God? 

We choose to carry Him in our hands and heads when He is the one that bore us. When we fell in the Garden of Eden, He quickly made plans for our restitution through the name of Christ.

How many times are we going to fall and how many times do we need to be reinstated?

Please remember always that the best battle is won when indeed you think you have actually lost.

I pray for the spirit of the Lord to keep the spirit of anger away from us and guide us with the emblem of His love in Jesus mighty Name. Amen

I pray we will all have a good festive season and the year 2024 will usher in comfort, growth and divine breakthrough in Jesus Name. Amen

It occurred to me whilst writing to warn that what draws us to Christ is not so much about how well we can write and how much we can preach. It is also unconnected to the prowess we share in the gift of prophecy or the ability to draw people to the Kingdom of God through the distinction we attained in our field of study. 

All these beliefs will not add anything to our Spiritual Stamina but how reliant we are upon His Words will always give our vision Spiritual Strength.

Apostle Paul in the Book of Colossians enumerated how we can lead a Christ-like life. The theology explains the fight against evil and how to also remain in the field of practically loving Jesus Christ.

It is true that evil time will come, while we bear these pain, do we bore them for Christ. Philippians 1:13-"As a result, it has become clear throughout the whole palace guard and to everyone else that I am in chains for Christ." 

Or do we join the complaining camps as against Philippians 2:14-"Do everything without complaining and arguing".

For us to continue to benefit from His Goodness we must rejoice in in our suffering. "Colossians 1:24- Now I rejoice in what I am suffering for you and I fill up in my flesh what is still lacking in regard to Christ's afflictions, for the sake of his body, which is the church.

Christ is ready to raise us up from the dust. His ambition is to give power to the faint and they will soar like eagles. Come unto Him, He is waiting. Unless you make the approach first, you will always be victims of circumstances.

Guide our souls and declare them for Your use, lift our hands and make them useful for Thee. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence... 

The question that pricked my mind as I began to write is what can He not do? So I learnt from the Youths of this world yesterday. They were really at it! Through the night they were busy, rightly digging deep and dividing the Words of God to reprove, remind, revive, realign and also encourage us to be faithful in our dealings with God and men.

One of them claimed, “when you make the Lord the Centre of your Universe, God too will make your business His Business". Another flipped "Our story is so unique that no one had experimented upon it" And another quipped and  also made to believe that if we get attached to the doctrines of righteousness, it will have enormous impact in the quality of our lives.

Beloved, rightly speaking the onus is upon us and not on our Lord the Maker and creator of everything. He has the power to deliver and we must have the power to prove His case against Satan. Working in an unrighteous manner can only stop the flow of His constant Grace upon Us. 

There is a big difference between darkness and Light and absolutely no in between which can only exacerbate our plight.

Therefore and this morning, choose rightly, as we all have the power to choose. No matter what: the camp you belong to determines what your rewards will be. Revelation 22:11 says "He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he who is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still".

And lastly, Revelation 22:12 says "And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.

On this mercy day, l pray to God to remove all satanic influences in our lives and allow His perpetual light to shine supreme in our lives. Amen

Do have a wonderful midweek celebration as we look forward to the new year.

Today, I am inspired to remind us to be mindful of the fact that as we rejoice in for being part of today's process and in His formidable presence, we may not actually be in the Lord’s presence due to our mind set.  

Please note, when this happens we may not experience His true presence except by His unsearchable Gracious Grace. Therefore, as we go about today, may the joy of the Lord embrace us and lead us into greater heights in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Today has now become a test that can lead us to our testimonies. But before we set our hopes high on our expectations from God, I need to ask if you have delivered yourself unto Him.

Today has suddenly become a test for you because yesterday is of no consequence anymore. If you heard the Words yesterday, then you now have the Grace to listen and live within the confines of His precepts.

It is within such confines, that each test will become your testimony, which means we can enjoy the newness of the Lord's mercies daily, albeit without any struggle, because He is the Lord. Lamentation 3:20-23

Happy new week everyone. Amen

The constant challenge we face as Christians is to allow our situations to consume our sense of reasoning. Thereby subjecting our faith to emotions and feelings. Forgetting that when God decides to give us the privilege to live, we should not do so nonchalantly, and minding the fact that we are alive under His provision of Grace. 

This behaviour welcomes all sorts of ill-mannered approach to the Lord's precepts. Living without preparing for the Kingdom, and often destroying each other at all cost.

On the other hand, when we suffer grief, we always withdraw the name of God from the equation. Death is the ultimate and unto Him we must return. While you are on earth, work and walk with Him so that when you pass on, He can then choose to work and walk with you. 

And surprisingly, it is another Sunday to celebrate the newness of the glory of God. And l pray we all have a glorious day ahead in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence...  

How do we live within the Lord's Provision? Do we grow in the Knowledge of the Provisions of God with contempt or contentment? 

Let me assure you that the simple drive/nudge we have in our basic instinct in the direction of contempt or contentment can be attributed to the challenges we suffer within His Provisions.

Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden treated the Provisions of God with contempt, they fell from their provisions of grace and today we still suffer the consequences. 

In like manner, Cain was subdued; he became so jealous about his brother's provision to the extent that he loathed him with passion. Within his provision, he allowed his passion to jade him until he became a killer.

On the other hand, do you have the habit of tampering with the Provisions of God? This is not new. Sarah did in Genesis 16:2 by introducing Hagar unto Abraham so that through her she can now have a child. It became a real family affair that we often quote in the 21st century, but we forget in most cases that many follow the same ploy in different area directly or indirectly. 

How do you feel, when a black man/woman suddenly wants to change her skin to be white in complexion? When we are contemptuous toward His Provisions, we often look at His Works with disdain. 

It shows dis-contentment on a very large scale which drives away the Spirit of Praise in us. When this happens, Satan flourish in our hearts and the evil spirit rides on different heights in our minds.

A preacher quipped “If you use any of God's Provisions carelessly, it will later hunt/hurt you in life. God had given you His Provisions. Be content with them and give Him praise.

I pray to God to lead and direct our hearts towards the needs to reap from His provision in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence... 

Undoubtedly, we always have reasons to support our actions and it does not matter where such actions is leading. I am depressed where it involves men and women of God playing the "Mind of God Syndrome" 

We find ourselves speaking authoritatively about God and without any reservation. Some hides under the Spirit of God to confuse and pronounce hybrid statements, leading to impasse in many disagreements. And the Book of Job 36:28 says "Behold, God is great, and we know him not, neither can the number of his years be searched out".

What we need to consider are the statements. Are they statements of peace or those that are prone to challenges? We must note, for we to experience the peace of God we must first embrace His peace and the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will begin to guard our hearts and our minds in Christ Jesus name. (Philippians 4:7)

Therefore beloved of Christ, do we embrace peace? Do we accept peace offerings when they are made? Are we fond of throwing the opportunities to make peace overboard using the "Mind of God"? If the repercussions are peaceful, God is in it, if not, we need to reconsider our ways and seek peace until it is in our court.

Stop playing the Mind of God Syndrome irrespective of your position. We will know when our actions will suffer from illicit gains. That is enough credence to show Satan is at work. I will encourage you to "Avoid evil and do good! Seek peace and pursue it!" (Psalm 34:14) 

I pray we will all have a glorious experience as we celebrate another weekend in His presence in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence... 

Today's message is very simple and it concerns the use of our tongues. It is a weakness that has become so violent in recent times and it carries dangers that are very specific in nature. 

More than half of the World's problem would have been solved if only we can tame our tongues and the Epistle of James 3 deals so much about the subject. In Proverbs 18:21 also, the tongue is described as having the power of life and death.

There is a great divide between what we stand for as Christians and what we utter from our mouths. We are fond of forgetting who we are when we unleash untamed utterances from our mouth without minding the consequences. 

Many have been driven to the point of death; some have been alienated, while some have simply taking their own lives. We may not know the effects unless we are at the receiving end of such vulgar and dehumanizing statements.

I am humbled at how convenient we subdue ourselves with this weakness in the house of God. Many who came for salvation had been stigmatized. The only Epistle they know and read from could be just us (2 Corinthians 3: 2-3) and with that, they may be lost forever to the world. 

Not only that, the way we write about ourselves these days is very alarming, more on the social media using the name of Christ. Some also claimed to be Christ and a prophet that was ordained by God. Only God knows who is fooling who and what they would have done if there are no social media. 

They have never witnessed anything positive, except to snoop and write castigating comments about events and people alike without reasons. And If Christ is the key, Christ should be in it and that means there must be peace in it. 

For any of our actions, including utterances and write ups, Christ must be in it. It should be an Epistle that portrays the peace of God in us and also draw people unto Christ. 

As we look forward to ushering a brand new year, l pray to God to give us hearts that sees the goodness of God in all we do as opposed to condemnation.

Do have a fulfilling day in the presence of God today and always. Amen

Today is all about individual differences. It is a topic we fail to understand even though wide ranging Universities devote their time in its studies. If we can have the study in the School of Education, I am sure it is in other field of studies too directly or indirectly, we have it embedded in different studies.

In the secular world, It has now become an important subject that employers have found a way to introduce in the employment laws to promote and stimulate motivation for their employees. 

To the employers, maximum output is only achievable where the employee works at his/her best. In other words, there must be linkage between all strata of the work force and each of them must work according to rules that will not undermine the effectiveness of other organs of the work force.

Apostle Paul was also clear about this method in his First Epistle to the Corinthians Chapter 12 where he took time to explain diversities in Spiritual Gifts. As we have individual differences in gifts of the Spirit so also we have them in other areas of live. 

The problem associated with diversities of gifts is how to harness them together and make them work for one glory either for God which is in a church or at Homes. Usually, this is not a problem at work places because the laws are very strict.

Homes have been turned into a burning furnace, whilst churches have been turned into a boxing arena. The head sees him/her as very special to the led and because of social awareness, insurrection sets in. 

That is the order of the day in today's homes and churches too. Food for thought! If we give room for individual differences, our homes and churches will become a better place because no two individual are the same. Even when they were born as twins, they will soon develop to have different qualities, all to the glory of God. 

Do have a mid week that is filled with the accomplishments of God in Jesus Mighty Name.Amen

Checking into Gods Presence...  

The Word of the Lord today is all about celebrating in our weaknesses. And without doubt, we all know what these are. If unsure, they are anything that is against the Fruits of the Spirit and Galatia 5:22-23 gives a summary of them.-

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law". Beloved, what weakness are we celebrating? What Spiritual revelation are you gloating over? 

Of all the sermons you have denounced, do you remember they spoke vehemently against those weaknesses of yours? Can you attest to the negative that your present situation is as a result of your inability to be able to turn the hands of the clock backwards?

David acknowledged his sins, he was penitent and pleads his case with God and Psalm 25:11 clearly treats his cause. “For the sake of your name, O Lord, forgive my iniquity, though it is great. The result was he was forgiven and also earned a title of "a man after God's heart" (1 Samuel 13:14).

To also show that salvation is separate and distinct from all works, let us cast our mind to the story of the Penitent Thief who received salvation in the full glare of death in Luke 23:40-43. This is to show God has the power to forgive all sins (Mark 2:10) irrespective.

Instead of celebrating in our weaknesses and glorifying in the Lord's distaste, let us rewind, redress and unwind from those weaknesses. Let us be remorseful and go back to the Lord like a Prodigal Son in Luke 15:11-32). 

He will forgive us and make us an heir of His kingdom, only if you will accept His gift of salvation. He is just the same Saviour the Penitent Thief had, the same God David had and the same merciful Lord of the Prodigal Son had. Will you not cry to Him for mercy today?

I pray for the wisdom of the Lord to lead and sustain us in the path of righteousness. May His mercy enrich our lives and fulfills our suplication in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence...  

God being God, we have another opportunity to witness another week in our lives, for this I welcome and also congratulate each and every one, through His Gracious Grace.

Today, it is all about the progress we have achieved working and walking in His Presence since we all claimed to be Christians, let alone Born Again. I am aware that the Bible itself is a progressive revelation of One Man who is Jesus Christ through the illumination of the minds of men of God. 

The study of it shows the Breathe of God into their writings and we see the stories of Jesus Christ unfold from Genesis unto Revelation through the Hands of God.

So this day, I want to ask if you know Him. Have you met Him? Are you working for Him? Are you walking with Him? And are you waiting for Him? The attestation of both Simeon and Anna on the birth of our Lord Jesus did not just happen. It had a degree of timing which led to the fulfilment of the covenant of God upon them. 

So also the journey of Abraham with God! There was progression in the journey until the covenant of God became fulfilled upon Him. If we are claiming blessing from God such as that of Abraham, we must make progress in our knowledge of God and it must be steady in growth. 

Our position within this growth must not in any way retrogress. Let us remember what happened to Saul and why the Lord rejected him as King in 1 Samuel 15. It does not matter when and where you started knowing God. What is important is you don’t look back afterwards. 

Today is an opportunity to realign your steps with His. He has lots of rewards for your trouble. Start making progress in your knowledge of Him today and your peace is assured. He did to Simeon, Anna and Abraham to mention a few and yours is next, Amen

Do have a week full of the Lord’s mercy and breakthrough. Amen

It is the very first Sunday within the twelfth month of this withering year and I give the Lord the glory for answering my prayers. I also welcome His faithfulness in my life with a heart full of praise.

As we share in the testimonies of God today, I congratulate each and every one for the fulfilment of the Lord’s promise upon us, which is the assurance given that “we shall not die but live and declare the works of the Lord” Psalm 118:17

I therefore pray that He will continue to give us the power to live to see another day for His Name Sake. As we go about today, He will be our shield and allow His mercies to lead us for greater testimonies in the run up to a brand new year in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

It is the power of God that snatched us from the gates of death to be able to see this wonderful day. Give Him the Praise; acknowledge that as much the day is beautiful, some people are not privileged to be in it. That you are alive with all the night trials, still glorify His name. 

Know that weeping may endure for the night, joy cometh in the morning (Psalm 30:5). This is the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, a time sure to come like a thief in the night and nobody knows.

That is why there will always be a tomorrow to give us Hope and shows/instil the Presence of the Lord in our lives. So walk with Him with patience and know that when tomorrow comes, God will be in it with all His promises. 

Do have a weekend that is filled with the testimonies of our Lord in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence... 

In my reminiscent as a young boy, I grew up in an environment where you can only put your arguments into words. Not where siblings slapped each other around. My parents were also very reluctant in using physical abuse to train us. 

During this period, each time when I was naughty, my sister would say the Lord sees me just to make sure she kept to the ground rules. A voice inside me would then say go inside the house to hide yourself so you can free from the effectiveness of this phrase. 

Unknowing to me then, I was deceiving myself. The Lord knows our beginning from the end (Isaiah 46:10) and nothing is hidden before Him. Are you with the same thought? Do you think you can escape from Him? What are your views in your present mode of worship in relation to your God?

Let me say without any doubt that you cannot hide from His Presence. He is the Silent Listener to every conversation and the Unseen Guest with every life. He comes quickly; His rewards are with Him to give unto every one according to his/her work. Revelation 22:12

Here is wishing you a happy new month of December. And l pray for the glory of God to lead us into the new year. Amen

Congratulations! Yes, we made it! Not by our standard, or by our might. Or quite simply, it is not because of our look, riches, prayers, positions or influence, but because the Lord approved our desire to see this day. 

There is no immunity against death, even Christ died for us whilst we are still sinners (Roman 5:8) truly, and He is our friend. What a privilege to be associated with Him.

And on this day, as we go through with prayers unto our Lord God, choose to be His true friend. Not only by association with the Name, or through prayers but also in our conducts and in thoughts. Eschew anger, hatred and lust. 

Rather, embrace peace, love and seek righteousness. You will be offering a seat to God in your heart without knowing, thereby achieving the most elusive peace that many desire. Get real! And get connected to Christ. 

We can be in His presence without being connected to the throne of Grace. That offers no reward in live and in heaven. Let today be your turning point. The Lord is waiting for your call. It can only be to our advantage.

May the Lord lead us into His presence today. He will rekindle the Spirit to serve Him righteously iand establish His peace upon us now and always. Do have a fulfilling day in His Presence. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence... 

It is another time to witness the glorious grace of our Lord and saviour. And now we are at liberty to enjoy the fullness of His grace in His Presence. The only snag is that it must be according to His Will and Purposes. 

In examining His Will and Purposes, a breakfast menu is brought before me to share within the knowledge of Christ and I am amazed about what stands out among the choices we have.

Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 15:30-32 gave a clearer explanation to the issue of Time and many finds the discussion filled with ambiguities. According to some noble thoughts, it is the world that grows old, not the people therein. 

Let it be known therefore that “we die daily” and must treat the time we share in this world with the knowledge of Christ even though many are being led astray by man's opinion of what the end time would be like. This confusion is working well for Satan as it also did some 2000 years ago when Christ was crucified for our sins whilst we are still sinners.

Christians know about the prophecies that say Satan will impersonate Christ and act as if he has come to bring peace to the world. (Isaiah 14:12-14, Matthew 24:23-27 and Revelation 16:14). Therefore the deceptions of the last days will surpass any that have come before, giving power to the antichrist which is sublimed in nature but potent enough to make the REAL CHRIST an antichrist. 

The “man of sin” “sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.”  (2 Thessalonian 2:3-4)  In order to put himself in the place of God, who is righteous and holy, the man of sin must claim to be righteous and holy while in reality opposed to righteousness”.

Within the time that you share in the presence of God daily, make a wise decision and allow the Christ to be in it. May Christ continue to lead us in His Presence. I pray we will all have a midweek that is filled with God’s plan, purpose and achievement in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence... 

It is all about an open invitation to worship the Lord this morning. (Jeremiah 29:13). He gave so much to prove His Love by giving us a platform to seek redemption for our sins through His Son Jesus Christ who died on the cross. 

All that is required is to believe in Him as stated in John 3:15 "That whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have eternal life". Why then do we allow the world problems which are of Satan to bamboozle us? 

Where is the little faith that is required of you? Have you deposited them in brothels, pubs or with men and women of this world?  Is your alliance with any secret societies? Here is an open invitation to think about your present position with Christ, even when we enjoy faith as small as a mustard seed. 

Our presence before Him must be so aligned with His Purpose. Today therefore, begin to fear and keep His commandments. The rewards are GREAT! The expression of the gains cannot be clearer enough. 

Colossians 3:24" says it all "Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ. Know you therefore, that as much as there are gains to enjoy, eternal judgement also awaits all. 

I am imploring you today to choose life by adhering to His precepts because His Laws are pure and simple (Psalm 19:7) and all hidden works will be brought to judgement, whether good or bad.(Ecclesiastes 12:14)

I pray for you all to have a great day filled the Lord's Purpose and success. Amen

In Matthew 28:18 we learnt “Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me”. And in (Isaiah 9:6), we also have in Christ a child that is born with a government placed on His shoulders. 

“He will be called Wonderful Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father and Prince of Peace”. This day, I am led to encourage you all to believe in His government so as to lead a meaningful life in the world of today.

Do you believe in His government? Do you believe Christ has a close knitted relationship with God the Father to make things happen for real? Matthew 3:17 describes the passion between their relationship - “And a voice from heaven said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased”. 

Do you also know that a government is placed on His shoulders to take charge of our affairs? And that we have His government placed on us to listen, work and walk with Him. What we may not consider is when our responsibilities are diminished adhering to His principles, we reduce the fringe benefits attached to the Throne of Grace and we suffer as result.

In retrospect, we would have handed over the key to life unto Satan who then will begin to toy with our existence. Now is your chance to have a stable relationship with His government. If you can use your vote to get a Political Party of your choice to get into power and rule by all means, by all means serve a Living Father who can give rest to your soul and  I wish you “above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth”(3 John 1:2)

Do have a week that is filled with the Lord’s Mercy. Amen

The passage that came to mind today is 1 Corinthians 4:1-2 which states " This, then, is how you ought to regard us: as servants of Christ and as those entrusted with the mysteries God has revealed. Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful".

How well do we measure in the true value of follower-ship of Christ? Whatever answer you have in your minds, let it resemble that which is stated in Matthew 5:16

And it states “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven"

I suppose we all know what our failings are. We also know the ruins many have delivered in the name of Christ. 

Many have claimed/claiming to be Christ, a Prophet of His and an Apostle of Him. But only God alone knows who His true followers are. Let it be known that the same way Christ was sent to the world, so also we have all been sent to lead our lives with Christ in it. 

John 17:18 as you sent me into the world, I have sent them into the world"). 1 Timothy 3:1 states "This is a true saying, If a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work" Therefore, It is not so much about the office/your office, but about who you truly represent-a servant of Christ, an Apostle of Christ who stands to explain the mysteries surrounding the Works/Words of God through His divine inspiration. 

We must therefore be faithful unto man and God to get to that position/maintain the position.

It is not too late to seek the Lord. He comes knocking on your door all the time and only you can open the door. Without any doubt, a lot has to do with His personal invitation into your lives.

May the Grace of God lead us to invite Him today into our lives in Jesus name. Here is wishing you a happy Sunday and a day that is filled with the Lord’s testimonies in Jesus Name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence... 

With joy and a heart full of praise unto the Greatness of the Lord, I congratulate everyone for the blessing we have received through the presence of a new dawn. 

Whatever your beliefs are, please note that God is in every second we spend in this world and there is absolutely nothing He does not know about us. 

“Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off. Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways. For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O Lord, thou knowest it altogether. Psalm 139:2-4

We are encouraged to be mindful of what we bear in our minds because we are always guided by the fruits of our thoughts. And if God is in our lives, He must also have the power to decipher which of our thoughts are worthless. 

“The Lord knoweth the thoughts of man, that they are vanity. Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O Lord, and teachest him out of thy law; That thou mayest give him rest from the days of adversity, until the pit be digged for the wicked. For the Lord will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.” Psalm 94:11-14

Let it be known again and again that our thoughts determine whether we are of God or of Satan and we all know when we fall foul to our thoughts. Consequently, I am encouraging you to invite God into your hearts; make Him the owner of your souls and minds, think of His kingdom and things that are noble. 

Make Him supreme over your thoughts and emotions to ratify His faith in every dimension. Without knowing, you will give Satan and his henchmen stampede and they will worry you no more. Amen

Lord we give you praise, we acknowledge your greatness in our existence from day to days. And today, we invite you to take possession of our thoughts, guide our souls and minds and give our hearts peace. 

Draw them to you and give us the power to worship you in truth and holiness. As we go about today, let us be able to testify to your greatness in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

If the Lord decides to answer your prayer today, like He did to Hannah in Shiloh, are you in a position perfectly placed for this to happen? Know that God answers prayer, the only problem is we constantly change our position and this has so much to do with the guilt we suffer as a result of our sins. 

“Behold, the Lord's hand is not shortened, that it cannot save, or his ear dull, that it cannot hear; but your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God, and your sins have hidden his face from you so that he does not hear.”Isaiah 59:1-2

Today was the tomorrow that was promised yesterday and it is full of His Grace, but without God Presence in it, we will have laboured in vain. 

Know that God can still meet you at your position, only in your position and wherever you call Him must be very conducive for His Presence. The choice is yours. Ask therefore but don't ask amiss (James 4:3). Pray but with a holy mind and in a holy ground (Act 14:9-11) and you will continue to enjoy the Presence of the Lord.

May the Hand of God reach out unto us today and cast away all uncertainties in our life. May His Power redeem us from the antics of Satan and the pangs of death in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

It is my birthday today and l give glory to God for all that l have achieved through Him, by Him and for Him. In part, l have seen the time change so often in different parts of the world. 

But let me assure you that it does not matter what sort of change we may have experienced, the Lord’s motive for creating us remains the same. Malachi 3:6 states “I the LORD does not change. So you, the descendants of Jacob, are not destroyed" 

Even if the tasks ahead are daunting, and the level of people worshipping with their feelings and emotions increase, there are rewards for every effort in the Lord’s Presence. “For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil” Ecclesiastes 12:14

I pray to God to inspire us with the Holy Spirit, and grant us the privilege to worship Him in truth faith and Holiness in Jesus Name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence... 

The year is withering and so is everything on this planet. If indeed this happens to us, very sadly and without admitting, we die daily! 1 Corinthians 15:31 states “I face death every day yes, just as surely as I boast about you in Christ Jesus our Lord”.

So, what are we doing with time? We must note in all of our whims, there is no easy access to the Throne of Grace without fighting against the temptations of the devil summed up within the distractions of this world. 

Joseph did not have it easy to receive the fulfilment of his destiny. He had to pass through the pit, to prison and then to palace. During that period he walked righteously with God and the Lord showed him mercy causing his dreams to come to fulfilment. 

Furthermore, there would have been no Israel if Jacob had been lenient with the Angel of the Lord in Genesis 32:22-32. And very clearly, Goliath would not have been defeated if David stood aloof and did nothing.

What would this life be if all you do is stare? The only constant thing is the Word of God which will last forever, so why not put your trust in Him? The evidences are He would not change/change position and that He fulfils what He had spoken. 

Hebrews 6:17 (http://biblehub.com/hebrews/6-17.htm) states “because God wanted to make the unchanging nature of his purpose very clear to the heirs of what was promised, he confirmed it with an oath”. 

So why do we need to put our trust in things of this world that would fly away? God is not a man that he should lie, not a human being, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfil? (Numbers 23:19 (http://biblehub.com/numbers/23-19.htm))

May the Lord grant us the desire to seek and also embrace what is noble. This mid week will usher us in to the realm of His riches in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

Praise Him without any limitations and irrespective of your condition! There must be no limitation in our standards of praise. This is because of the standard of grace we all enjoy. 

The only “standard limitation” set are in the area of our choices because whoever is born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God (1 John 3:9).

And this morning, what are your choices in His Presence taking into account the standard limitations of God? Remember, Cain was given limitations by God just like everyone else. He had the same power like us to choose between being hearer and doer of the Word. 

I am sure we marvelled as we read about his conduct. Directly or indirectly, it can be likened to that of a man who observes his natural face in a mirror, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was (James 1:24) as a result, he killed Abel! 

Genesis 4:8. Do we not follow the same principles of Cain? Let me reaffirm,  we don’t have to kill to be convicted of the same offence, even when we follow the standard common law test in the world today to examine most of our motives, using men’s rea or actus rea to determine the degree of guilt.

May the gracefulness attached to God’s name overwhelm our hearts and make us productive in  the service to man through His Name. Amen

1 Corinthians 8:6 states “But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him”.

1 Timothy 2:5 also reaffirms this knowledge “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus”. As Christians therefore, I am very sure we practice our beliefs based on the assurance that we have One God and Jesus Christ is our mediator.

These are some of the mysteries surrounding the Works of God who must consider over a billion prayer requests at the same time. Give Him praise when you go through any condition. Move away from the complaining camps because you are not the only one with the direct link to His Throne of Mercy.

Why? We have seen righteous men and women fallen in sickness and in death, how much more you that constantly roam at the door of mercy without going into His Throne of Grace. You are neither here nor there, making the service unto Him as part of a fashion show, a ritual filled with lip service without any penitence from our guilty paths.

Today, make your choice wisely. The Lord is always waiting for you and we have His inheritance to gain. 1 John 1:9 states “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness”.

In this new week, may the Lord lead us with His Grace and give us the confidence to rely on His Words. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence...  

It is a great day already; irrespective of our conditions we can feel the greatness of God as a new day is ushered in through His works. The amazing thing is that no one has the power to stop Him in His strides! 

Therefore, when we see the morning drifting into afternoon and within our full glare, the evening takes over and separate the day from the night, we are forced to enjoy the Greatness of His kindness. 

These are all controlled by the Presence of only One God and so shall it be until eternity. “For this God is our God for ever and ever; he will be our guide even to the end”. Psalm 48:14

This Sunday, I will encourage you all to bring your concerns to Him through prayers and also maintain your divine status with Him as you respond to the challenges of unanswered prayers. 

Always remember His assurances in Psalm 23, particularly verse 3 which states “He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake” because the Lord cherishes His name and we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose (Romans 8:28)

Who can fight for God? James 4 enlightens “Why do you fight and argue among yourselves? Isn’t it because of your sinful longings? They fight inside you. Do you remember what Scripture says? The spirit that God caused to live in us wants us to belong only to God. Don’t you think Scripture has a reason for saying that? James 4:1&5

Yes! Because “God opposes those who are proud. But he gives grace to those who are not.” (Proverbs 3:34). You now have the choice to make amends today. Start by maintaining your divine relationship and His Grace will abound.

I pray for His presence in our lives to give us the power to outwit the power of Satan in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

This morning, it is all about praising God. Therefore, let us know that “God made the earth by his power; he founded the world by his wisdom and stretched out the heavens by his understanding” (Jeremiah 10:12). 

Although we may feel our prayers go nowhere; I can confirm they all go to the throne of Grace. As stated by Apostle John in Revelation 8:3 which states: “Another angel, who had a golden censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given much incense to offer, with the prayers of all God’s people, on the golden altar in front of the throne.”

Please also note that we have gone this far because of God’s grace and not by our strength!

May the Lord uplift our strength today through His Grace and grant us the benefits of those that diligently seek Him in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence...  

Our time in His presence can be regarded as a plot of land called the Lord’s garden which we must learn to cultivate plant and nurture to the glory of the Lord. 

The common denominator is the time we are given, and according to many interpretation, this time is shrouded in mysteries because no one can determine for how long he/she have been given within this time to attend to the Lord’s Garden. 

This is one of the areas that show God as a Superior Being and we must all marvel at His Presence. What goes from you into the Lord’s Garden is of immense importance. 

For whatever you plant you will harvest and the harvest is not of this world. Genesis 8:22 states, “while the earth remained, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease”. 

Consider also John 4:35 which say “Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? Behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest”. 

So if the harvest is here all of the time and we reap what we sow into the Lord’s Garden with pleasure, and within the time allocated to us, so also our conduct before God will be harvested when our time is up in this world.

I therefore charge you to make a difference today, for the harvest is ripe already. The Harvest is nigh and the Lord is ready to give unto everyone according to his/her conducts, whether it is good or bad. Ecclesiastes 12:13-14

May the Lord increase our spiritual strength, knowledge, wisdom and give us the ability to follow Him greatly in His footsteps. Amen

Let’s consider Cain in Genesis 4:16, who ran away from the presence of the Lord having killed his brother Abel. From that day God placed a 'mark' which symbolizes dishonour upon him and branded him a sinner for murdering his brother. 

Indirectly and against popular beliefs, the mark was supposed to be a curse upon Cain but it was nothing of the sort because God only cursed the ground so Cain could never farm again but rather to be a fugitive and a wanderer upon the earth.

Judging by Cain's actions, it was evidenced that God noticed Cain's anger beforehand and did nothing to stop him. Rather He advised, "If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin is lurking at the door; its desire is for you, but you must master it." 

God therefore left the decision up to the simple minded Cain to interpret what the instructions were. Cain then chose to kill his brother and God pronounced some punishment.

In actuality, these so-called punishments improved his life. Cain didn't wander at all. Instead he settled in the east in the land of Nod, married, prospered, had one son and founded a city. 

The mark also signified an act of protection that meant whosoever kills Cain will suffer a sevenfold vengeance. These happened just because Cain complained against the Lord’s punishment. 

I pray, as we go about today in His Presence, may the Lord show His mercies upon us now and always. His mark will lead us to where we will enjoy our possessions through Christ our Saviour.   Amen

When we look around us, what can we say about the Lord's greatness? Do you realize there must be something in His name that draws the whole earth unto Him, and His name we can boldly confess to even by association? 

We must also note that with His Name no one can fault us and the rewards to those who follow Him are immense. For “Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised, and his greatness is unsearchable.” Psalm 145:3

Therefore, put your trust in Him today. He is waiting…May the power of the Lord feed us with His wisdom so that our choices will always be labelled God’s own in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Christ Beloved, do you know there are something’s that are not just worth fighting for? Do you also know that it is our inability to decipher between which and what to fight for that is responsible for at least 75% of the world problems?

Today, I want you consider all that we strive for under the name of peace. Are they synonymous to Philippians 4:8?which states: “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things". 

And are they paramount to the sacrifice of peace and for peace?

May the Lord's Grace teach us to accept things we cannot change, grant us peace and make us to live above sin in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

We must work very hard to follow Christ’s examples. The thoughts of them alone can be very gratifying and the practice will surely lead us to our peace. (Ephesian 2:14-15 

“For He is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; 15 by abolishing in his flesh the law with its commandments and regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new man out of the two, thus making peace”) 

Therefore, as we share in His pain, let us remember His messages that will guarantee our peace and also lead us to reign with Him in heaven.

May the Lord anoint us with the oil of favour and make our souls to prosper through Christ our redeemer. Amen

Christ did all He could to show us His love, preaching; we have a great adversary in the name of Satan who works against us constantly but portrays himself as an angel of God, a position he once enjoyed- “And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light” 2 Corinthians 11:14. 

As Christians therefore, we ought to remember if any doctrine is preached that is contrary to that of Christ which embraces love, peace, unity and any other slogan for charity, please note that they are of antichrist and should be denounced straightaway. 

Galatians 1:8 states “but even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let them be under God's curse!”

Let us use this period therefore to start preaching the gospel of God, anything short of this principle brings about difficulties emanating from Satan and his cohorts, but sadly can also be endorsed by God even where we know His mercies are infinite as in the life of Job in Job 1:8.

May the grace of the Lord uproot all satanic influences in our live and we shall continue to enjoy the Presence of the Lord in all we do. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence... 

Through the fulfilment of His covenant, the first Church sprang up in Antioch (Acts 11:19-26) and from then on various Ministries came about. In testament to God’s covenant, the Holy Spirit also began His work, leading many Christians unto the path of Christ.

In part, Christ was preparing us for the “Finishing Line” so much so that, some 2000 years ago He laid down His life so that we can all receive the Grace of the Father. From then on, the Holy Spirit took control and those who are constantly led by the Spirit continually enjoy the Grace of God. 

Romans 8:14 states “for those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God. Therefore, to get acquainted with the “Finishing Line” we in return must be prepared to lay down things of this world at the feet of Jesus. 

This is because they can cause unnecessary distraction. We must remember everything about Christ is humbleness; He was not at any time extravagant during His lifetime, both in deeds, utterances and submissiveness. 

For instance, He was delivered in a Manger, rode on a colt instead of a horse and also favoured moving around performing His Fathers Work as against sharing in the comfort of any home.

Please note, there will be trials and temptations, but we have to leave them at the feet of Jesus. Christ has appointed people to remind us about what He has promised through His Grace, and this medium is one of them. 

I therefore pray, as we go about today, we shall dig and find water, we shall sow and reap plenty and the Lord testimonies in our lives will continue in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

Who is your pillar of faith? What do you hold unto that constantly reduce your appetite to serve God? Could it be trials? 

Let it be known that we cannot remain untouchable from the effects of trials and temptations; they will surely come inasmuch that the world remains. 

And some may have been apportioned by satanic influences, all we need is a very strong faith in who we believe in and we shall be an overcomer. Please remember this:

“To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:

Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:” Colossians 1:27-28

If Christ is the key, maintain your faith in Him and He will whet your appetite in your desire to serve Him.

May the love of Christ favour us today and always. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence...  

Christ indeed died some 2000 years ago but there is little doubt that the death of Judas Iscariot occurred before that of our Lord Jesus Christ (Matthew 27:5). 

Let it be known that Judas' act of betrayal was recorded as part of God's sovereign plan upon the Son of Man. It served as a means of bringing redemption back to the world so we can be reinstated back to the position of grace we once enjoyed before the fall of Adam and Eve. (Psalm 41:9, Zechariah 11:12-13)

In Isaiah 53:12, we can then deduce that the only sin Christ committed was His unfailing Love, not only that, it also casts serious failings upon the character of Judas Iscariot who above all other things allowed his faith in Jesus Christ to fail him. 

In that, Judas worked with Christ throughout His Ministry just like other disciples. He was privileged in his position within the group and was opportuned to witness all the mind blowing miracles Christ performed. 

As a treasurer, he became a thief having been stealing from the group's money bag and Christ knew his disloyalty was to the point of no redemption. Other apostles may have deserted Him and Peter may have also denied Jesus but Judas made the greatest error in history by leading the temple guards to Christ at Gethsemane and also identified Jesus by kissing Him.

Today, I want us to start to work on our faith and we must not at any point allow our faith in God to fail us. Judas Iscariot started with a little crime but Satan took advantage of his vulnerability and the greed in him was escalated to the point of no redemption. 

As a result, he delivered an innocent Man to the vipers of this world, who crucified Him.

May the death of Christ bring redemption upon our souls and His ascension to heaven will give us His grace to be able to walk in His way in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

Christ life and death has become living testimonies so that all those who believe in Him, even when they are dead, they will still enjoy perpetual life in His Kingdom. Some amount of faith is needed to believe in the theory that indeed there is life after death (Isaiah 26:19). 

However, we all know about the celebration of the name Jesus whilst we are still in this world and that is enough testimony for us to believe He also reigns in heaven dead or alive.

For every situation we encounter, let us remember His unfailing love, Promises and Covenants and draw nearer to Him more than ever before and He will be kind towards us. 

Please note, when we live our lives away from Christ, irrespective of the position we enjoy there is bound to be some repercussions (Isaiah 26:21). For if Christ can choose to die on the cross for our sake, then we must have known between what is good from what is bad, therefore we have no excuse.

As a result, begin to fear the Lord and work in His demands so that we can have rest for our souls. 

In this new week, I pray for the joy surrounding the resurrection of Jesus Christ to remove all satanic stains from us and endow us with the privilege to choose to serve Christ- a living Father who bore our guilt so that we can all be saved. Amen

The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.

There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard. Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun” Psalm 19:1-4

Therefore, let the world marvel at His greatness Halleluyah. May the Love of Christ embrace us and lead us to our position of peace in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Dearly Beloved, today's message has to do with the Love of God. Please note that God is Love and you have to love God to claim any inheritance from Him. “

He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.” 1 John 4:8

Ironically, to love God means we have to love ourselves. Those who do not love one another are those that will do away with the Love of God.

May the Power of God strengthens our desire to love Him through the perfect love we share with our neighbours in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Have you become an institution unto yourself in every form that cannot be associated with Christ? Brethren in Christ, I want us to remember that David’s life was a roller coaster of emotional highs and lows as a king of Israel but still managed to leave us an example of passionate love affair with God. 

In 1 Samuel 13: 14 and Acts 13:22, He was described as a man after God’s own Heart and became an institution to all Christians until this day.

What institution have you built so far and which one do you intend to build? Running away from the presence of God would lead no one anywhere. 

I pray for the mercy of the Lord to overwhelm our endeavours and establish in us the desire to walk always in righteousness. Amen

Do you always think about basking in the glory of God? Then you must admit the privileges, and continue to praise Him. You must believe in Him, worship Him irrespective of your condition and desire to act on His commandments, all of the time. 

You will then discover there is nothing as peaceful as working within His Reigns. Therefore use today to check into His Presence, the Lord is waiting for your call.

Please remember Psalm 37:4, and it states: “Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.”

May the Lord remove the stronghold of Satan in our lives and fortify us with divine peace, comfort, joy and good health in Jesus Name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence...  

Christ Beloved, let us know that in our Presence before God, we have to constantly upgrade and update our statused just like Prophet Isaiah suggested in Isaiah 6:6-8

“Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:

And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged.

Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.”

And perhaps our presence before Him had been filled with illicit conducts; it is never too late to reprocess our behaviour before God, just like the Prodigal Son in Luke 15:11-32.

We can start by running the reigns of heaven from this world, and by introducing Christ like influence into our endeavors. 

And by doing so, I strongly believe we will not be heavenly conscious to the detriment of our earthly responsibilities because that may be the only Bible the people of this world will ever come into contact with.

I pray in this new month that the grace of God will satisfy our needs and propel us into comfort, joy, peace, divine riches, long life and good health in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen 

Here is wishing you all a happy New Month of November.

Let us thank God irrespective of our position because God is able to exceed our expectations if we trust in His faithfulness. Brethren, I can assure you that working and walking with the Lord also requires waiting for the Lord. 

It is our inability to wait for His Promises that fights against the assured covenant of God. We cannot be a full Christian without being able to wait on the Lord. 

Abraham did and found favour in the Lord, lasting generations. Hannah did, her joy became multiplied and Job’s joy became more fulfilled after waiting on the Lord in his struggles against the antics of Satan.

Today, leave all worries unto Him and your joy is at hand. May the joy of the Lord strengthens each other and everyone in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

30th October 2023

This new week, let us talk about sacrifice, and we must remember that Christ laid down its foundation by sacrificing His life for the sake of humanity. 

Ironically, it was this single act that drew us to Him and also make us what we become today - a Christian. It is overtly clear that the extent of our belief in His call to Christendom is only known to an individual and that makes salvation to be very personal.

How far can you go when it comes to sacrificing things of this world for His sake? I want us to know that the farther we go also ensures greater amount of peace we enjoy in His Presence. But the little victory we enjoy in the havoc we commit unto ourselves today by not working in His ways; may stand to be a life’s time challenge in the life we lead tomorrow, and that is if tomorrow comes.

Let us know that Christ used His life as a sacrifice to ensure our peace is maintained, as a result let us work in a way that will ensure we sacrifice everything that will disturb His peace from growing in our lives.

Prophet Isaiah in chapter 26 delve into this matter and was very clear about the subject. It states: “ In that day shall this song be sung in the land of Judah; We have a strong city; salvation will God appoint for walls and bulwarks.

Open ye the gates, that the righteous nation which keepeth the truth may enter in. Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.

Trust ye in the Lord for ever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength:” Isaiah 26: 1-4

May the Lord make His face to shine upon us today and give us victory in every challenge against the principles of Satan in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Today is all about communication. It is so important that we have Communication in Law which is a course on its own in the legal field. 

The study is very necessary in the world today; it is to set principles, barriers and also serves to remove all area of doubt in the way we co-exist with each other.

Besides, I have also learnt that the best tool in communication is love and you must be able to give it in the face of adversities. Christ offered himself as a living acceptable sacrifice in the midst of gruesome trials so that we can recognise His love for us and each time we remember His crucifixion we should in return love our neighbours.

You cannot love without being able to give and this is not restricted to monetary and material values alone. Learn to give your time in worship, learn to humble yourself; it is part of giving, learn to help where it matters. Learn to accept things you cannot change and also learn to love very truly. 

These are the only way you can communicate the gifts of love based on the instructions of Christ and by so doing help to eradicate the confusion in the world.

Very clear and simple, love must be expressed and must not be ambiguous. There must not be any hidden assertion in the expression of our gifts. In law, they are termed misrepresentation and stands to be challenged.

That is why we have successful high rate in divorce settlement (alimonies) and a lot of high profile court cases relating to contract laws.

Is it the love of Christ that you have embraced? Then let His love shine through and through, and nothing more can be more pleasing.

Have you checked in into His Presence today, being the last Sunday in the month of October? 

May the love of Christ speak in all areas of our endeavours.  Amen.

Things have happened, some very chaotic but we are still standing strong in His Grace. Can l ask, what position are you this morning? Are you dejected over unfulfilled dreams? Has your love experience set you back? 

Have you lost someone very close or lost a great deal in the material world? Or are you enjoying a new status in your place of work or at home? 

Please remember, if the Lord can bring you into today, then He knows about our statuses. Therefore give Him your best in worship, in prayer and in charity and you are on your way to continue to enjoy His greatness. 

Isaiah 40:25-26 states: “To whom then will you liken Me, Or to whom shall I be equal?” says the Holy One. Lift up your eyes on high, and see who has created these things, Who brings out their host by number; He calls them all by name, By the greatness of His might And the strength of His power; Not one is missing.”

I pray for the greatness of God upon our lives and may His joy radiates upon us as we sorjourn in this sinful world in Jesus Name. Amen

Just would like to ask why we carry the Bible and we never put it to any good use. What is a Christian life without the study of the Bible? 

The Bible claims wisdom is the principal thing, get it and you will receive understanding (Proverbs 4:7). How can we know about God without getting acquainted with Him through worship and the study of His words?

Use your bible; serve God in all honesty and truth, pray every day and you will enjoy God remarkable Presence in all you do.

Checking into God’s Presence…

Today is another reminder for us to reaffirm our faith in Christ who died so that we can all be saved.

Christ in His humble nature used His death on the cross, however gruesome it may look to clarify His supremacy upon all earthly challenges.

Upon His death, He assumed a position that gives everyone hope so that whoever believe in Him will also have a part in His everlasting reign in heaven. 

Know that  “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.”Psalm 46:1-3 (KJV) “

But he said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness'” (2 Corinthians 12:9).

and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus” (Romans 3:24).

Therefore, join the force and be with Christ today and you will share in His supremacy over all earthly challenge that the Devil himself is administering.

May the love of Christ shown on the cross evaporates all challenges in our lives. Amen

Today is another remarkable day in His Presence and we have reasons to glorify the Lord for His everlasting peace in our lives. 

No matter how great the challenges may be, if we are to lay them bare in an open field with the opportunity to swap with each other, many would still prefer one’s own share of the worldly troubles at the expense of this opportunity.

But would these challenges matter in 20 years’ time? No, but we need a good relationship in His Presence for Him to redeem us from all worldly troubles and bring us into the fulfilment of His covenant upon Abraham our Father as described in Luke 1: 68- 75. 

And it states: “Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, because he has come to his people and redeemed them.

He has raised up a horn[a] of salvation for us in the house of his servant David

as he said through his holy prophets of long ago), salvation from our enemies and from the hand of all who hate us— to show mercy to our ancestors and to remember his holy covenant, the oath he swore to our father Abraham: to rescue us from the hand of our enemies

and to enable us to serve him without fear in holiness and righteousness before him all our days. 

I pray for God’s blessing to saturate our lives and grant us comfort on all sides in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Let us give glory to God for the strength and inspiration given to us to worship Him. We must remember He is the only one who can impose a natural talent upon any individual through the help of the Holy Spirit, granting us to ability to outlive each day.

It is possible to have perfect delight to serve, work and worship in His Presence, but does this perfection entails perfect submission? 

We may praise Him all day long but please remember His works are proven through the rainfall and the breeze around us. It is noted with the rise and set of the sun which also signifies the beginning and the end of any day. 

Indirectly, it offers a new beginning within a new hope and the effects are powerful on all nature. But among all these effects, have you had Him speak? 

When He does, it comes through silent whispers and silent nudges which are audible only to those who give perfect submission unto His Words. And that is the truth of the matter.

Isaiah 55: 6-12 states: Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:

Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord.

For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:

So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

May the Lord give us His Spirit to be able to seek Himand abide by His Word in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Look below and wonder at His faithfulness. Listen to His whisper, loud enough to lead, powerful enough to save and great enough to deliver. 

All we need do therefore is to surrender our hearts, soul and body unto Him and all will be well even in the face of any afflictions. Amen

Listen to this: “Yet if you devote your heart to him and stretch out your hands to him,

if you put away the sin that is in your hand and allow no evil to dwell in your tent,

then, free of fault, you will lift up your face; you will stand firm and without fear. You will surely forget your trouble, recalling it only as waters gone by. Life will be brighter than noonday, and darkness will become like morning. You will be secure, because there is hope; you will look about you and take your rest in safety. You will lie down, with no one to make you afraid, and many will court your favor.” Job 11:13-19

We beseech You oh Lord to allow Your Graciousness to soak us with passion so we can work, walk and live within Your confines in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

To God is all glory as we share a new promise within His Grace. 

I congratulate those whose birthday falls on today and commiserate with the families of those whose lives has been put paid to by our Lord Almighty.

And that reminds me of the growth we share, I discovered so much time and efforts are devoted to ensure we all lead a meaningful life no matter what state we may find ourselves. 

But do we also grow in the knowledge of God the Creator of all things?

Looking back, I can assure you that it is the missing link between the human race and salvation. Ironically, it represents a great divide between peace and the human race we jointly share. This is because we now co-exist without fear and the knowledge of God. 

Wishing you all peace, joy and comfort in our minds as we share in the journeys of life. Amen
