Checking into Presence...
To really live and dine with God requires a great attitude in faith and righteousness. Where will your attitude take you? The unchecked provision of Grace by God without the right attitude often brings disaster. Very much like the story of the Prodigal Son in Luke 15: 11-32.
So today, I implore you to check your attitude before it becomes swollen. Bring your attitude back if it is running unchecked and away from you.
I pray for the grace of God to rebuild the right attitude in us. Let His strength sustain our attitude where it is necessary so that we do not fall from our position of Grace. Amen

A very good day to you all and welcome to another time in His Presence. 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. But 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 cantered 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 favor? 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. Amen

Welcome to another passage in time. Like every other passages in time, life itself does has a beginning and very surely, the end will also be occasioned 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? Fleshy marketing in a Godly environment? Cheating by using the gifts of prophesies? Abuse of all sorts from the use of power and positions? Deceit by every standard and or dishonoring every peaceful attempt only to prove a point? Does the very Standard of God you profess to keep and honour remain short in your drive? Do people see in you an unchanged Christian? Please note if what you wear, profess and represent does not advertise you spiritually, you are just an ordinary camouflage of Christianity.
We are Yours Father; we beseech You to make us Yours in deeds as well as in person. And let us be a true replica of Christ and not a camouflage of Christianity. Amen

It is so pleasing to see many attending churches and called by the name of Christ; however if only those who attends and worships the Lord under any guise can do so according to His commandments the world will be a better place because "As you have heard from the beginning, his command is that you walk in love." (2 John 1:6).
Aside, responsible service in the presence of God can also be rewarded with greater authority in the realm of the spirit. In that, as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him." (1 Corinthians 2:9)
However, the desire to love God and His commandments requires also some responsibility which must not be taken lightly. Evidently, there are some risks involved and the decision to love cannot be traded with because it is unlike an emotion. To love therefore starts with the power and ability to choose love over any other form of hatred in accordance to the teachings of Christ.
"Therefore brethren, there is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love. We love Him because He first loved us. If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? (1 John 4:18-20)
Finally, to love is an obedience through faith and must be without fear. It involves risk, choices, and decisions and should not be handled with emotions. Such Abraham practiced only for him to be blessed with a Covenanted Child in the name of Isaac. (Genesis 16:19)
Father without Your empowerment we cannot love rightly, choose to endow us with Your loving kindness so that the desire to love You will be paramount in every decision we make in Jesus name. Amen

Good morning friends and welcome to a new testimony. God is a God of purpose and whatever He does has meaning if truly you are in Him and He is in you. It does not matter if you have been praying for a miracle which appears to be far away, if you have God on your side, you can still be a miracle unto others. We can share testimonies only if we work according to His word. Don't be deceived; the only miracle we have left in the world is when you truly have God as your Father.
Absolutely no one has the power over any miracles without you first believing in Him that the miracles abide. Therefore, begin to walk righteously in Him and then aim to be blameless at all fronts; you will begin to experience God like you have never had before, because Great is His faithfulness. What is your position today, blaming God for all that has ever happened to you? Are you blaming the man of God or even the church? What of the prophecies you have received? Is that the reason for not serving God? See, if we do not allow our perceptions to be in accord with God, life will not be meaningful when there is crisis.
May we be passionate in every circumstance to serve the Lord so that His miracles in us can be shown for the world to see. Amen

We may be giving glory to God for His steadfast love and care; as well let us check ourselves to see if really we are having a proper relationship with Christ.
In that, relationship with Christ must be such that challenged everyone to be upright in their Christian duties. It has a lot to do with our responses to Christ teachings, examples, His laws and the type of love we have towards our neighbours. These attributes alone bear testimony to whether we are dead or alive with/in Christ and under no circumstances be misconstrued as-
1. The display of ornamental crosses worn on different necks.
2. The amount of religious visits to so many churches.
3. Monetary contributions to various projects in any Christian Assemblies.
4. Lucrative positions or otherwise we may have been appointed to or may have usurped under different agendas.
5. Coined or faked spiritual endowment and or endorsement.
6. How big your ministry is
7. Not the size of personal pockets and or church pockets.
8. It is not how well you can speak, write and sing to the Lord's praises.
9. The sort of name we bear or who we are connected with or to.
"Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts. And do not present your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but present yourselves to God as being alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace." Romans 6:12-14
"Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Roman 6:11) Lord, give us your spirit so we can be alive in you. Amen

Let us get out of being a child and begin to adopt the rights to the true ownership of the inheritance of heaven. Apart from the fact that only God can prove who we are within the genuineness of our Christian worship, those who chose to be called Christians can consider themselves free to chase after things that presumably are good. However, they must also note that not all good things are healthy and peaceful for the kind of relationship God requires from us. It does not matter what formula you are using to portray yourself in the Christendom. This can either be as a Pastor, Shepherd, Prophet/Prophetess, Deacon or other men and women of God who are of very high repute. Remember, God knows your works even though their filth can be hidden to other men of God within the Christian race. God has the privilege to see and know everything even before the thoughts are conceived. There may be enough prove that we have listened to the Voice of God, albeit in many ways which should have attracted and affected the most adamant man; quite clearly too and by the same token; many have also refused to follow direct instructions from God which includes among other things-obedience to His Words and true worship.
Why then do we remain thirsty in the midst of plenty? Isaiah 55:1-3 says "Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness. Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.
Brethren in Christ, coming to church like a Christian cannot give you enough strength to receive salvation. The only sure way to be revived, restored and established as one of the disciples of Christ is by following His precepts and not by leaning on our own understanding. You know your work and what it's worth in the Kingdom race. A time is coming that no amendment can take place in the way we have lived our lives. Therefore, make every second count in God's favour; our salvation in heaven depends so much on it.
Lord we have come again, empower us to eat that which is good and let our souls delight itself in fatness. Incline Your ear and come unto us so that we can hear to make our soul live. Also remember Your everlasting covenant with us which are as sure as the mercies given unto David. Amen
