You may not know, you may have simply forgotten or just having the highest disregard to the fact that you are kept alive today at the expense of Christ. And if not for Him, where do you think you would be? 

In Christ, there is complete manifestation of God's requirement which were carefully presented through the Gospel of Christ in the Bible. And it is by following Christ examples with wisdom and the knowledge of God that salvation can be assured by the virtue of our faith in Him. 

As always, you are again being called for the acceptance of the completed work of Jesus Christ which was centred on His death and resurrection. Those who believe in Christ however, are bound to triumph over sins through the righteousness in Christ Jesus. 

What have you given up for Christ to reign in your life? What draws you away from His Mercy Gate and what sin are you finding difficult to jettison in His favour? Remember, in Christ is the complete manifestation of the Kingdom of Heaven requirements on earth. 

And they must be strictly adhered to for us to have a meaningful relationship with God. Let our love in You strengthen us, our faith in You keep us and believe in You order our steps so that we do not falter in Your presence in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Like every other passage in time, life itself has a beginning and an end whether we like it or not. If time is a passage therefore, what method have you adopted in the practice of Christianity which can only link you to the Creator of Time? 

Are you marketing your flesh, cheating, or misusing the gifts of prophesies or positions? Do the very standard of God you profess to keep and honour remain short in your life? And do people see Christ in you? Please note that if what you wear, profess and represent does not show the essence of Christ in you, you are merely a counterfeit.

Lord, we ask that you help us be true replicas of Christ and not counterfeits in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

Welcome to another endless cycle of His Grace which undoubtedly puts everyone on a mission to succeed in life no matter what. For you to have any meaningful presence in life, you must live victoriously above the invisible power of darkness which is capable of seducing our thoughts and drawing us deeper into sins. 

Let it be known that you are recognized as a true Christian not by what you say, write, wear, the gifts you possess or by the virtue of your positioning in life. We can only become full time Christians when we truly live as Citizens of His Kingdom, who work tirelessly mainly to move the Heavenly Kingdom forward whilst still on earth (Acts 3:6).  

As a result we must be geared towards developing holiness in hearts, manifesting through the heartbeat of integrity, dignity and high moral standards. Being righteous in Christ should therefore not be misconstrued as an empowerment to link or view the heritage of God's Kingdom with selfish desires; overwhelmingly found in unholy camps. 

If your alliance therefore is with and in Christ, you are reconciled with Him. If your wicked works prove you otherwise, you must from now seek to be blameless and above reproach in the sight of God (Colossians 1:19-22).

Take our lives, let them be for You. Take our hearts, fill them with Your Thoughts, take our eyes, use them as Yours and reconcile our ways with Yours, let us walk together in them with You oh Lord. Amen

Another day comes and although in a different format, it is still part of the daily grace of the Lord. We must see today as a privilege and therefore should be joyous in the fulfilment of His Covenant through the gift of the new day. 

I therefore, welcome you to His fullness today. Do you believe God resides in everyday that is born? But are you part of the day? Let us with a gladsome mind, praise the Lord for His Kindness, May His Grace lead us to the everlasting grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen

God wants the best for everyone as much as we all want to succeed in life. Without saying, God also wants the prosperity of our souls that brings about very good quality to our inner self. 

This invariably comes under dedication and commitment to the fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23). These processes undoubtedly bring about divine prosperity which is not momentary in itself but can still be experienced both in the physical and the spiritual realm. 

Therefore, in understanding the newness of the Grace of God, albeit forever renewed daily, we must also note that what goes with His Special Grace is spiritual warfare which constantly works against the souls of men and women. 

Occasions will therefore arise where blessings meant for the Children of God may be hindered where steadfastness to His Holy name can be viewed as nil or lame. 

Are you in need of His prosperity both in soul and body? If truly you are hungry for God, you will be filled mainly through His Covenant of peace upon us. (Jeremiah 29:11) And also, if truly you lack anything spiritually, you shall be satisfied. 

Challenges stems from being a part Christian and that is by following mainly the ideals of the world. (Ecclesiastes 12:14) 

May the joy of the Lord keep us on this Lord’s Day and beyond and we shall continuously proper in growth, age, wisdom, health and in soul through Christ that strengthens us. Amen

What you may learn from this story can rebuild your relationship with God. The whole experience stems from a very queer fire incident that occurred in March 2015. In the early hours of the morning, I received a call from a member of my church stating that our church building was on fire.  

I was rushed to get there only to find it in ashes! The main structure of the building stood but everything else was completely damaged and we were due to hold a birthday thanksgiving celebration for in the church that week. 

We all knew that this was Satan’s attempt to instil fear in us and destroy our hope but instead the opposite happened. The church, family and friends came together to pray and not only that but also showed continuous support in areas I could never have imagined. 

We were sent numerous financial donations and to my surprise some were anonymous. This was surely the Lord’s doing. As a result, we were able to rebuild His Temple by turning all ashes to beauty in a very short space of time. 

I was stunned and very grateful to God for this uncommon favour. It really showed what the Lord was capable of doing in our midst, particularly when you trust Him. It sets my mind ablaze about how great God is and for this reason I cannot sleep.  

I sincerely thank those who rendered their support in rebuilding the Church of God. I can categorically say the support was unprecedented and by our standard unrivalled! 

I conclude by saying the Lord at work in the life of the church will transform your lives. Rebuild your hope in Him where you may be nursing doubts and realign your ways with His. The fire of the evil one will not burn you in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

Whatever end you may have come across the day, please be rest assured that you cannot exonerate the numerous blessings God promised would be that of the Israelites, if indeed they carefully obey and follow His Commandments. (Deuteronomy 28:1) 

So, how have you started your day and at what point did you come on board? Are you still in a state of disbelief to the clarities within the instructions of the Lord or are you just a risk taker? Surely, there are provisions for those who flagrantly disobey the injunctions of the Lord. 

And undoubtedly, this pattern invites fear into their ways because of the repercussions which are necessarily attached to fear. Fear, again and without saying reduces the potency in faith as it clearly state the complete opposite of what the Words of the Lord stands for. (Proverbs 29:25) 

Today, I encourage you to seek the Lord so you can stay alive in this world and beyond (Deuteronomy 4:4). Going after the mundane things of this world invariably brings conflicts in all our ways thereby causing confusion which sends erring member to the cross roads and then point of no return. 

The Grace of God will cast off all desires that send us to the path of unwanted cross roads; His Power will realign our position with Him so that we will faithfully desire His attributes in Jesus Mighty name.

You may have the day in your possession but do you have with it a heart of worship? I present to you Revelation 14:7 "Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters". 

Through your spirit of worship, can you answer just as we have in Revelation 7:14? Which says "And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb". 

Having a heart of worship depends so much on the above provisions and without saying, your response too determines who you are when it comes to apportioning His overwhelming Grace. 

What you put in is what you get! We beseech You God to erase the spirit that "journey" away from your Grace in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

And in this new week, is it not the case that we are very quick to call ourselves Christians? Are we not proud to wear colourful robes denoting us as men and women of God? What about titles? 

What of those titles we answer to that brings honour in high places, signifying where we sit and what treatment we are accorded with. Have you been paid rather unduly as men and women of God where you only represent yourself?

Do you know if you have failed the criteria for those who were genuinely called? If you do, have you been pretending to be one, thereby deceiving people as you go on empty tank in the spiritual domain? 

Being in Christ means you have been restored and that should have replaced spiritual death to spiritual life because you are now dead to sins (Romans 6:11). In order words, you must grow daily in your quality of life as a Child of God because God continues to perfect His Work which He began in us at salvation (Joel 2:28) 

May the joy of today link us to His Grace and perfect all that concerns us in the Spiritual Realm in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

It is very possible that we don't know that our help resides in His Holy name and that is because God loves us very endlessly. Today, I want to charge everyone to be the agents of His love as we carry on in His presence. 

Let His grace hold us in His hands and keeps us all on His sight without any deviation, so that we can continue to receive His love and Spirit. As Usual, I want to welcome you to another Lord's Table to day

I would like to remind you that His body was broken so that we can be made whole and He became accursed so that we can enter into a perfect relationship with Him. 

At the brake of this new day, we have all come to God living within the grace of the harvest of our previous sowing. Let us therefore see every day as a seed in our relationship with Him. 

Set your mind to recognize the Lord's mercy and begin to live a life that is full of peace and joy and your weapon of choice should be love. 

On this mercy day, may the Lord bless us with His presence today and always. Amen

If we constantly commit our ways to the Lord in prayer, if we walk with Him, seek His guidance and then obey His Word, God will directly use people to bring about good opportunities in our lives. 

Proverbs 16:23-33 throws light on this as follows 23" The heart of the wise teaches his mouth, and added learning to his lips. 24 Pleasant words are as ahoneycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones. 

25 There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. 26 He that labouredlaboureth for himself; for his mouth craveth it of him. 27 An ungodly man diggeth up evil: and in his lips there is as a burning fire. 

28 A forward man soweth strife: and a whisperer separates chief friends. 29 A violent man enticed his neighbour, and leaded him into the way that is not good. 30 He shutteth his eyes to devise froward things: moving his lips he bringeth evil to pass. 

31 The hoary head is a crown of glory, if it be found in the way of righteousness. 32 He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city. 33 The lot is cast into the lap; but the whole disposing thereof is of the Lord."

Each verse has significant meaning and relates to the way we conduct ourselves and will determine what favour you receive from God through men. 

May we be cleansed spiritually in our hearts so that we can experience the blessings of the Lord first-hand in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

It is a very rare privilege to be alive today. And on this Pentecost Sunday, It is a good time to reiterate that loving each other as Christ loved us would go a long way to satisfy one of the commandments of God. 

In considering love this morning 1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 comes to mind; "Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. 

Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things. Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away". 

The amazing thing is, this passage does not qualify or prescribe such love to a specific person or group of persons, but to all without any discrimination. 

If you have been showing love mainly to those in your household and then find a way to denounce others (vice/versa), you are likely to be one of those who tolerates pest like cockroaches, mouse and wall geckos in your homes but exhibits a very high degree of intolerance towards your fellow man. 

Love and respect goes together and both have to be given unconditionally according to Paul in this Book of 1 Corinthians 13. The failure on our part to go through this simple process can only bring tears, which many are capable to share from. 

Therefore, we pray for your help O God, we beseech You to give us the Spirit to love ourselves genuinely according to Your Word in Jesus name. Amen

The key thing today is, one day is enough to make the change you have always promised yourself and you don't need to look any further. The day may have proven to be elusive in nature to many, please know that once you have it in your possession, it can create opportunities whereby you can begin to amend, reshape, restart, revive and re ignite the passion God built in you and then begin to walk towards where He wants you to be. 

So where are you presently? Are you walking righteously before the Lord? Or are you still waiting for another day before you can make the important decision and begin to walk with God? 

How many days do you think you have left? Remember, everything in life depends so much on the story of one day. Therefore make today count in your favour. Let it be a blessing so you can shine in it. 

Do decide to make it a day worthy to be remembered, even when you cease to be part of it. The story of each life also starts and ends with one day. And so is the story of the intervals between the start and the end of each life. 

May we have the grace to spend each day wisely so that the stories of our life surrounded by each day will be counted as gain for us in the Kingdom of God. Amen 

Do have a blissful weekend.

With His Grace we have been valued and therefore kept alive by God to see this day, but how much value you place on your life is determined by your response to His Words and His commandments. 

You may not know or pretend not to know that handling the affairs and warnings of God with negligence offers severe repercussions in the growth and development of our affairs in the world today. 

God cannot be mocked and whatever a man sows so he must reap. This principle operates in all we do and achieve; only we are very stubborn to admit. We therefore place the results of the repercussions on satanic influences, Witches, Wizards, old people at homes and every suspicion upon anybody we may have or have had little disagreement with. 

Some change churches as a result of their own achievement, even though they are the architect of their own misfortune. Very sadly, they live behind a place that represents the success story of their life. 

Today, I say keep the word of God and live a life of peace, joy and success stories will be yours or denounce His Word, teachings and commandments and see yourself thrive in retribution. 

May the Grace of God lift our souls and make them grow in His Word so that His Spirit will commend and not condemn us in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

Even at this point, we must realise we are living on the fringes of borrowed time. This is because not everyone could sail through the dangers of the night. And that can mean no one except God knows when his or her time is up. 

Now that you have the grace to be alive, do you see yourself strengthened enough to seek the Lord this morning and irrespective of what position you may find yourself? Perhaps this article culled from "If not for God" can help to lead us to where we are suppose to be when our thoughts are broken, either through our conducts by way of sins or through what we may/thought we have lost because of the intervention of the enemies. 

“In 1 Samuel 30...David and his men returned from a three-day march and found their city burned and their families gone. Amalekite raiders did to David’s city what David and his men had done to many of the surrounding villages. It was a catastrophe. David didn’t wait for someone else to strengthen him. He didn’t say, “Well Lord, if You want to strengthen me, that’s fine. I’ll just wait here until You do it.” 

David knew that the Lord’s strength was there for those who wait upon Him, so he strengthened himself in the Lord his God. Notice (1 Samuel 30:6) that it was “David” who strengthened himself in the Lord his God. David was backslidden and wayward; but he was also now completely broken, ready to be filled. 

This was strength for recognition, strength to repair his brokenness, strength for repentance, strength and determination to win back what the enemy has stolen. This is the same strength that raised Jesus from the dead! You must see yourself as a Champion first before you can notice what you have lost/missing. 

If this self drive is lacking, there will be no desire and the tendencies would be inbuilt for the person to continue to live abjectly in a deprived situation. 

We beseech You Father to repair the broken structures in us, rebuild our strength to work with You and keep Your Commandments. Let Your Love in us is strengthened so we will also see the need to love our fellow men in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

Father, I just want to thank you for the glory you have invested in us through the beauty of another day. You have indeed given us a very rare privilege to stay alive and write about Good News that others can use so that they too can come nearer to Thee. 

The Good News can help to remove the fearful nature in men and that is if they are faithful and become realist in Christ according to what they read, hear, learn and see about God through Christ. 

Undoubtedly, they will become nurtured by the Holy Spirit. 

The Good News makes disciples in Christ and has the ability to also make fake Christians along the line. These erring Christians often quote relevant Bible portions to substantiate their misdemeanours, also in the household of God. 

But I say categorically that if you know and preach the truth, you are His(John 8:32) and if you use other means to enslave dithering Christians, there is no way that you and your cohorts can become free and free indeed. 

Therefore, make today good in itself, come back to Him and He will make disciples of you because if He sets you free, you will be free indeed. (John 8:36). And so you will become free to sins and consequently you will become slaves to righteousness. (Roman 6:18) 

The overall benefits of being enslaved to righteousness leads to holiness which also guarantees eternal life (Romans 6:22) and this is what we claim on this mercy day in Jesus Mighty name. Amen. Wishing you all a happy and rewarding midweek in the Presence of God. Amen

Please know that everyday mirrors the way of God in us, either rightly or in an unrighteous manner, very surely we must know what we have achieved when we look back to the events of yesterday. 

But today, I want to encourage you as I write as a witness to the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to follow the examples as stated in Acts 2:42-43 "They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. 

Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles." Therefore I say, unless you passionately seek the Lord by following His Commandments, you cannot act as a witness unto Him.

Being called a child of God, a Minister of God, or indeed a Christian would be tantamount to "just a child's play". As Christians, and without saying, you are a mirror unto Him Who bore our guilt, at the same time you occupy a witness seat unto those who do not know Christ or dithers about their stand in His Presence. 

Each day therefore should sustain, correct and elicit any corrupt motives in our drives and based on the above passage. Everyone should diligently seek and devote their time to honour the Lord's Commandments. 

We beseech You Lord, to plant our feet so that we can walk in your ways and let us press toward the Presence of your high Calling. Empower us to cut away things that persuade us to move away from Your Presence through Christ our Saviour. Amen

Today, I am inspired to write about having "room for forgiveness". Is your heart so broad to know when you are wrong? And are you so brave to forgive when forgiveness is sought? 

These two principles operate very much in the Kingdom Dynamics. In that, your hearts need to be free from any pollution as may have been caused by unforgiving hearts. 

If we are then guilty of the aforementioned, how do we want the Lord to interpret our sins when it comes to forgiveness. Please also note that we cannot claim righteousness through Christ unless we have been forgiven. 

If we are coy to the issues relating to forgiveness, we will be limiting directly or indirectly the gifts of God’s Grace from coming to manifestation in our lives. 

May the Lord renew the right Spirit in us so that the gifts of His a Spirit can manifest among us unrestrained in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

We are almost half way through the year, but in the process how many of the Lord's errands have you successfully completed? As Christians, we have automatically become the salt of the World. 

How many lives have you sweetened and just how many have you destroyed? Within the church that you serve, how many souls have you led to Christ among the congregation? 

What flavour of Christ in you do you emit and how many people have seen the glory of God in you to such an extent that they become so enthused by the Word of God in you? 

You must be the light of the world, not just as a caricature of the Apostle of God, but as one that follows Christ rather very dutifully to such an extent that the glory of God shines through and culpable of drawing people to Christ. 

Today, it is necessary to drop- 1. The desert in your heart in favour of the richness of the Word of God. 2. Remove the poison in your tongue and replace with fruits of the spirit 3. The illicit look of your eyes and introduce those that yearn for the spirit. 

4. And allow the Word of God to plough through the shallow areas of your life so you can be what the Lord wants you to be. And so help us God Amen. Wishing you all a blissful Sunday filled with grace, mercy, joy and riches in the Presence of the Lord. Amen

We simply call it another day but it is another time through His Grace, and we are very fortunate to be celebrating the birth of a new day this month. May the Lord of perfection, perfect all that concerns us this month in Jesus name Amen. 

Before I go on, I would like to know what relationship we all have with time, that is apart from the civil use in describing the past, the present and the future. All time is of God, but really and truly time also has its inscription vested upon man(Ecclesiastes 3). 

The inscription we have in the story of our time each day should reflect so much on the history of time. And overall time even when timed with all its intent and purposes, its riches thereof must bear great resemblance to the Word and Commandments of God. 

Time measures everything, whether it is good, past, present, bad or futuristic in nature. Time is so important to such an extent that a dead clock gives the correct time twice a day, this is the work of God because great is His faithfulness. 

These attribute alone should reinforce His existence in every experiences we may have/share in the world today. So how corrupt is your timing? When you are timed against your neighbours’ time, just how credible are you? 

What have you taken unlawfully before God that does not belong to you across all spheres of life? What is it are you marking time on? You must know that God sees the end even from the beginning, so why bother? 

Remember those who stay with the Lord will always reach their destination and it does not matter if the story of their time is tampered with by any ploy or plot. Even a dead clock tells the correct time twice in a day. 

God with you is far better and greater than the millions against you and so shall it be when you make Him your Cornerstone. Wishing you the very best in everything this month has to offer in Jesus name. Amen

Who is Christ that so much interest is pinned around Him? Let us examine Philippians 2: 1-18 and try to understand what Christ is all about and how we can go about in imitating His Humility. 

“Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind. 

Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: 

Who, being in very nature[a]God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature[b]of a servant, being made in human likeness. 

And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death— even death on a cross! Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, 

that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Do Everything Without Grumbling 

Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfil his good purpose. 

Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, “children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.”[c]Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky as you hold firmly to the word of life. And then I will be able to boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labour in vain.

But even if I am being poured out like a drink offering on the sacrifice and service coming from your faith, I am glad and rejoice with all of you. So you too should be glad and rejoice with me. 

May we be empowered to the point of being able to sacrifice and serve God in faith in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

Today I have been encouraged by Psalm 50:5 which states "Bring my faithful people to me, those who made a covenant with me by giving sacrifices". 

And so I ask on this merciful day, what sacrifice(s) can you make that can take you to the next level in your Christian duties? And when we talk about pictures, what image of you albeit made/recorded by the Spirit can jeopardise your Kingdom Works? 

And who among you have subjected people to extortion clandestinely, using the name of God? Please note, the Kingdom Call is not about the size of your bible? Or indeed how well you can preach, write and dress. It is also not measured by any spirit of prophecy or the size of your congregation. 

Purely, it is about how righteous you are to Christ teachings through your disposition to your fellow men and how willing you are able to follow His instructions. Therefore, and today, I genuinely ask you to make healthy sacrifice in the area of love in your relationship with men so that through you many can be brought to the group of Christianity. 

Lord, we beseech you to empower us to exhibit an offering of love to all men in accordance to your teachings in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

We are in a period of time where the name of God should be uppermost in our hearts and this should be by genuine efforts. The only thing that can stand in our ways are the unrelenting/unforgivable spirits. 

Please take a close look at the Martyrdom in Stephen in the Book of Acts 8:60. Despite the inhuman treatment visited upon him by the people of this world, he still managed to plead to God that this ferocious act upon him should not be counted as sin towards them. 

This singular act is traceable to our Lord Jesus in Luke 23:34, apart from this two there is no other person recorded to have suffered similar fate. What a great sacrifice of love? 

In part, being genuine with our Christian worship and duties should more often than not take us away from the comfort zones of our worship to the level of offering severe sacrifice in the area of love, forgiveness, worship and humility, just to say the least. 

Therefore, this new week, what are you willing to put to an end in all your uncharitable duties? So also, what do you hope to imbibe from all the Wordings of Jesus Christ? 

Time is not a friend to anyone because it can't be held to ransom under any guise. We are talking about the new week today and it can also be the end of time to anyone at anytime. 

Wishing you all the Grace of God in all we do. But please note there is no surer way to serve God other than to worship Him in righteousness. 

May we all get the empowerment to achieve this aim in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

6th May 2024

Checking into Gods Presence... 

It is another day and we have made it to His Presence again. But lo and behold, this victory was only achievable through His Grace. 

Talking about Grace, through learning I came to understand that the very mention of Grace means "Gifts Received at Christ Expense". Let us now see what Paul says about Grace in his Epistle to the Corinthians. 

2 Corinthians 12:9 says "But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me." 

Grace and weaknesses can therefore be described as a battery with two terminals, namely positive and negative respectively. On this occasion, Grace supersedes and overwhelms genuine weaknesses. 

On the other hand, it must be noted that weaknesses upon weaknesses cannot achieve anything in His Grace yard. Through the above analysis, a battery becomes dysfunctional when two negatives meet at a point. 

And furthermore, Grace covers essentially where there are no laws. Where there are laws, erring Christians become guilty of the offence and they are convicted through the Spirit of such acts. 

(Romans 5:13 "New Living Translation yes, people sinned even before the law was given. But it was not counted as sin because there was not yet any law to break.") But however, redemption can still stem from that guilty verdicts and these would rely so much on being penitent from such misdemeanour. 

It is only then that the Grace of God can be abounding again. So, for how long are you going to boast of weaknesses upon weaknesses and still expect the Grace of God to abound? 

Nay, because once you have been washed of one sin, you are not expected to commit the same sin again. As Christians we cannot claim ignorance of the laws because we listen to them more often than not. Therefore let us keep them so we can all boast in our weaknesses and thereby invoking the Spirit of God to rest upon us for His Grace to abound. 

On this new day and a new week Father, wash us so we can become Yours, build us so we can be able to stand in Your Presence and lead us so we do not falter under Your Grace. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence... 

Ask me, and I will tell you that the Lord is always proud of His achievements. Only you don't need to look far before you recognize how proud the Lord is to have kept each and everyone alive to be able to enjoy the value of His presence today. 

How well are you in His Grace today? Are you fearful about what you think you cannot achieve in your strides and in the Presence of the Lord? Have you asked yourself how close you are to His Grace? 

If you are truly in Christ, you must know that surely the Lord is working on your behalf, while we are still alive, the Lord can still answer our prayers. So I encourage you all not faint while we serve and worship in His Presence. 

May the Lord keep us and also allow His Presence to shine through in our lives in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence... 

Without any shadow of doubt, it is a new beginning because the Lord wipes each day away to avail everyone the opportunity to start again. And very much, it is a new day but what is in this new day and what can you see in the newness of the day? 

Could it be the debris from the unrighteous path of yesterday? How do you perceive yourselves in the New Presence of the Lord today? A constant sinner or someone whose feet are not far from the Ways of God? 

Remember the instructions as directed by God in Joshua 3:3 which says "giving these instructions to the people: "When you see the Levitical priests carrying the Ark of the Covenant of the LORD your God, move out from your positions and follow them". 

From all what you have learnt, heard and seen under the banner of our Lord Jesus Christ, can you categorically say in the newness of the day today that you have moved away from your position of guilt and to the Lord's presence? 

If the answer is no, are you able to jettison your old ways that is filled with unrighteousness and follow Christ in His newness today? If you can achieve this, then you have succeeded in moving out of your guilty position that leads nowhere to a new position that allows you to follow the Ark of the Lord, which represent His Ways. 

Please remember that the people who love the Lord should hate evil and that the Lord watches over those who follow Him and frees them from the powers of the wicked. (Psalm 97:10) 

May the Lord empower us to shun evil so that He can faithfully watch over us in order to free us from the power of the wicked and all challenges as a result of our sins in Jesus Name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence... 

You may not know or indeed pretend not to know that every action we take, either in deeds and or in speeches are recorded. These records will appear and continue to live in a log book which no one has the freedom to access until eternity. 

Undoubtedly, all records will show how good and also how bad our conducts/regimes in the world had been. What follow is judgement which are forever imminent. 

2 Corinthians 5:10 encapsulates this fact "For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad." 

And so for the records, of what conduct are you? To be honest at least for once, what regime are you perpetrating? Are you marketing a regime that is filled with deceit, grudges, hatred and backbiting? Galatians 5:15 

But if you are always biting and devouring one another, watch out! Beware of destroying one another." As compared to Galatians 5:5 which says "For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness" 

But know that Christ will not serve the purpose of a Saviour of anyone who will not own and rely upon Him as their only True Saviour. Let us take heed to the warnings and persuasions of all men and women of God to steadfastness in the doctrine and liberty of the gospel. 

All true Christians, being taught by the Holy Spirit must wait for eternal life as a reward of their righteousness, and the object of their hope should be as a gift from God through faith in Christ. 

True faith therefore works with grace which is exemplified by the love of God and the love shown to our neighbours. Let me assure you that without faith working by love, everything else is worthless. That includes our outward appearances such professions, gifts, robes, titles or endowment as this alone does not make us acceptable to God. 

We beseech You therefore Father, to direct our steps so that we can enjoy our hope in You through faith that exemplifies true love even to our neighbours in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence... 

I am very much aware that the night is on its back already and the day will follow suit even though it is still rolling. Therefore, where can I flee from His Presence? (Psalm 139:7) 

If you look around you, the Lord's Grace is highly apparent. Go below the sea and experience the Awesomeness of His Might first hand. You will learn that His power creates a door in between the sea unknowingly, but which no one can fathom. 

When the doors are open, the heavens will declare its Glory and the earth must surely shake. (Genesis 1:6). And look up and see that His Righteousness established even the firmament, so much so that it cannot drop. 

Where can you then hide from His Presence? When the world ceases to exist, are we going to share in His Graceful Presence or be forced to hell because we allowed the carelessness of the way we lived our lives take the centre stage. 

May we have the freedom to share in the Gracefulness of His Presence at the end of time in Jesus name. Amen

Checking into Gods Presence... 

It is good to know that today being the first day in a new month, many will automatically display their Christian duties by praying to God undoubtedly for the grace received from the previous month. This may have become a norm that people follow without having to think about it. 

Some may have also taken the duty of proving who they are in the Christian world through vigils, singing and oftentimes using different programs to further promote the work of God. 

Apart from these scenarios, how far can you go in keeping the laws of God and His commandments. Do you always allow the spirit of unrighteousness to dominate your life even when you are very active in His Service? 

1 John 5: 3 says "for this is the love of God that we should keep His commandments; and His commandments are not burdensome. 

And so in this new month oh Lord, we beseech to redeem us from the bondages of sin, satan and his cohorts. Also, render void the incidences of all unfriendly friends in Jesus Mighty name. Amen

30th April 2024

Checking into Gods Presence...  

The Lord guides His Own using the basic instructions in the Bible; to instruct, encourage and admonish everyone in order for them to gain His Kingdom (Colossians 3:16- Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God). 

We must however be strong with this special Grace of Christ Jesus by allowing our Christian duties to incorporate spiritual discipline which bears direct cognizance to the above. Christian journeys are not always determined by the act of cruising in splendour to heaven but as a soldier of Christ who also must be able to endure hardship, difficulty and opposition through the power of the Holy Spirit. 

Can you always stand in public to defend your actions, either publicly or privately? If any of your conduct can bring the name of God into disrepute, please note that you have transgressed the teachings of the Lord and have not followed what Paul professed in 2 Timothy 2:15-"Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth". 

As we draw the curtains for the month of April, I pray to God to empower us in our Christian duties so we can stand boldly to defend our work as a Christian Soldier in Jesus Mighty name. Amen
