Checking into Gods Presence...  

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

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
