God is All in All, do you believe?

Testimony Time:-Good morning Children of Grace. Through His Faithfulness we have all been saved to see another day. What a Powerful God we serve!

I do know and I am also very sure that you know that God's Power is from everlasting to everlasting (Isaiah 40:28). Just wondering why the world simply refuse to acknowledge that.

We take steps to avoid all things that are powerful in nature, like machines, powerful and poisonous animals and of any roaring ocean, lest we run into danger. But oftentimes, we come against the Power of God, forgetting how potent it can choose to be.

Those who claim to know God must also know He is all in all. Why must we now short changed His Supremacy? Walking with Him perfectly gives a life of peace even when we go through trials, tribulations and temptations.

Are you walking with Him or would you rather walk with earthly friends? The choice is yours!

We thank you for today's Grace and for keeping us alive, let Your Supremacy guide us richly today so that we will not take the Grace for granted in Jesus name. Amen

Living after Christ examples

Testimony Time:-Good morning Children of God and welcome to another opportunity to serve the Lord.

Today is very important in the lives of all Christians because some 2000 years ago Jesus displayed the highest humility on earth by riding into Jerusalem on a donkey instead of a horse (Zechariah 9:9-10)

Many Christians therefore forgets quite easily this height of humility. They always want to ride high into every situation, thereby dispelling all humble nature as a Child of God.

Every situation is how you perceive it. It does not matter if it is trials, tribulations or challenges. Your day starts with whatever interpretation you give to every scenario and it escalates from there.

No one is above any challenge, that is one of the intricacies of live and how you navigate through them display the lowly attribute Christ is teaching us today. Surprisingly, that singular act connects you to His Grace and of course puts you on the same level with what our Christian duties should be

How do you see yourself, a king even though you are meant to be led? A master even when you have one leading you? Or a god and master of all, when we have a Supreme King above us?

May the Lord give us the Grace to learn from today's example as displayed by Christ in our attributes. Amen

Still prisoners of hope, after the death of Christ?

Testimony Time:-Good morning Children of Grace and welcome to the last leg of the Lent Season.

We must know that the battle against Satan is a recurring one, we can only put his antics to rest by our individual efforts to stay within the dictates of the Holy One. And until such is achieved, the Bible describes Us as "Prisoners of Hope". Zechariah 9:12

Now that you know you can hope in the Lord for as long as you want it to be, the only way to achieve His Liberty in your expectations is to hide in His Fortress where Satan has no dominion.

God has a fortress and it is for those who are called and work righteously to maintain the "Status Quo". Without your desire to stay within His guideline, the tendency is to stray away and get imprisoned, even within the amount of hope we carry in all expectations.

You have been spared to enjoy another breakthrough today at the expense of Satan and his cohorts; only through the Supremacy of God. This is an achievement but for how long will you make your hope imprisoned just because you can't stay within this Fortress of the Lord?

May the Lord keep us and also give us the Grace to maintain our desire to stay within His Fortress always. Amen

The Abel or the Cane in you?

Testimony Time:-Good morning Sons and Daughters of the Most High God. By His Grace I am able to welcome you to another enrichment of His Faithfulness as we are saved from the perils of the night once again.

Let us give the Lord the glory for His Great Power of resuscitation. The Lord took us from the position of a very deep sleep where we were motionless and powerless. He then gave us a new lease of life purposely so that we can continue to glorify His name no matter what we face as humans.

When you are filled with praise unto Him Who is Great, albeit without any complaint about your situation, you are already offering a sacrifice which goes directly to The Throne of Grace.

Cane in the Book of Genesis had his offering overwhelmed with discouragement, there was no iota of any delight in all the process of his offering and got what he deserved in terms of reimbursement from God.

Whereas. Abel attention to details saw his offering very carefully accepted by God. Don't forget, both Cane and Abel tilled the same ground and also had the same opportunities. The only difference was one had a grateful heart and the other seats in condemnation over every opportunities at his disposition.

God understands our limitations. He knows when we are severely impaired. The story about the "Widows Mite" is a clear example of how generous our Lord can be in accepting our offering, only if we have a grateful heart.

Today, what are your complaints? About the weather? About missed chances? Or about you plunging headlong into different dangerous scenario an expects God to take the blame?

The sad thing is we know when we are making the wrong move, yet we will fail to acknowledge it because of our stony heart; and God now becomes the first culprit of our failures.

Therefore, let us come back to God today by acknowledging our waywardness. Let us begin to seek Him and come back into the fortress of righteous so we can brake the shackles of the Imprisonment of our hope, as commandeered by Satan.

May the Grace of God brake all bondage upon our lives and set us at Liberty to enjoy the fullness of His Grace at all times in Jesus name. Amen

The right to live?

Testimony Time:-Good morning to you all Christians Soldiers and welcome to another Breakfast in His Presence.

This morning, the main meal served to you by God is to give us "the right to live". This undoubtedly gives us access to other delicacies and drink with different flavors. You can then choose to have them as you like but first you must decide to partake from the Menu which the Lord have decided to serve indiscriminately.

God has made the first step, we have been spared even where are character may have been dubious and filled with complacence coupled with nonchalance. However, the invitation to taste of His Breakfast is not random, it has been giving to all those who have decided live in Christ and also die in Christ.

Are you living for Christ? Are you setting the examples of Christ? Are you leading people to Christ or to yourself? Are you really eating from the Lord's Table? If you die today, would you have died having Christ as gain?

Please note, all favorable answer puts you in great demand in the Kingdom of God, where our claims as Christian Soldiers whilst in this world will be tested with fire, whether we like it or not.

Happy New Month and may we have a meaningful run in His Presence in Jesus name. Amen

Set on prepared pattern of Grace or be prepared to fail.

Testimony Time:-It is another day through His Grace, therefore I say a very good morning to everyone in the House.

For some reason, our usual greetings each day stems from good morning, good day, good afternoon, good evening or indeed good night. And it does not matter what our situations are, there is still something to be grateful about in His Presence; only we take our affairs so seriously that we often fail to tap into His Goodness and Mercies.

The Lord's covenant is that His Goodness and Mercy shall follow us all the days of our lives. But can we read His Goodness in every situation, whether as a result of trials, test, tribulations or indeed testimony?

If on the contrary, we choose to run after the mundane things of the world, they will culminate in a number of "rise and falls", in the already "packaged for good journey" by our Dear Lord. This means we will often find it hard to see anything good about the morning, the afternoon and or the evening.

Proverbs 6 and Galatians 5 describes in details those things that brings confusion on the prepared pattern of God upon us, these as a result causes separation between us and His Goodness.

If there is nothing good about your day, you really need to start with yourself. Don't go about blaming other people for your problems, most of them are self made as much as many are man made.

So it Is a good morning already, but what can you see? How many destruction pattern have you set? What peace have you nurtured? Remember, the havoc caused or hatched today may take many years to take it's stand and by that time, it is already too late to make any amends.

Jesus offered peace for every hatred, healing for every insult, preaching for every insinuations and His life for every death wishes purported against Him. What a sacrifice?

What is your sacrifice this morning? We do know your Christian Faith is very buoyant. Although you are known in the corridors of power, what can you give to retain or attain peace as a child of God?

The day is already good to you, toe its pattern to achieve peace; just like Christ we all claim to humbly serve. May His Grace be sufficient for us in Jesus name. Amen

Christ bore our sins to be good to each other.

Testimony Time:-It is a Good Friday and the Day is already good in itself. This is because some 2000 years ago, Jesus decided to die and make Himself an atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for the sins of the whole world (1 John 2:2) so that we can live and have a share in His Father's Kingdom in heaven.

While I wish you all another good morning and a happy Good Friday, let me quickly remind us about Christ desire upon us when He chose to die for us because "He himself bore our sins" in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; and "by his wounds we have been healed." (1 Peter 2:24). The Book of 1 Thessalonians 5:9-11 buttresses this fact, "For God has not destined us for wrath, but for obtaining salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, 10 who died for us, so that whether we are awake or asleep, we will live together with Him. 11 Therefore encourage one another and build up one another, just as you also are doing".

The question is if we encourage one another? Do we build up one another? Do we still crucify ourselves, either to pull him or her down as we call ourselves Christians? Do we you know that those who engage in such acts can be classified as being "asleep" even when they still live in this world? That by such act, they do not belong to the group described in Romans 14:8 which says "If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord". Because "for this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living" (Romans 14:9).

Although Hebrew 10:10 says that "by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once and for all. Very clearly,we are also enjoined in Hebrews 12:13 to "make level paths for your feet," so that the lame may not be disabled, but rather healed".

Therefore Brethren, If all Good Fridays were to remind us about our relationship to God through Christ, acting also as a reminder of our goodness to each other, just how many do you think we will have on earth? The time is nigh, let us stop taking things for granted and be awakened for Christ. Let us be in Christ and by so doing have a constructive relationship with ourselves as suggested by (Philippians 4:6-9)" 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. 9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you". Do have a wonderful Easter celebration in His Presence through His Grace. Amen
