SECRET STORMS

Sometimes we go through some kind of challenges and we begin to think God has turned His back on us. BUT that's not true, He's with us IN the storm. Click on this video to be motivated....

FAITH BOOSTERS

Image
There are several faith boosters . ..and we'll be looking at a few of them. I trust God to open your eyes of understanding !

THE HOLY SPIRIT 1

Image
The apostles never had the 66 books; they had the Holy Spirit; the ancient spirit; the author of the scriptures. The Holy Spirit revealed the thoughts of God and made them living logos. This is because they submitted under the mentorship of the Holy Spirit; they had communion and fellowship with Him. They were able to shake buildings with their prayers because they constantly dwelt in the secret place. They never hurried out of His presence. Many of us time ourselves. Its good to use our time effectively but when it comes to dwelling in His presence, be willing to stay! Don't time the Holy Spirit. Dont tell you don't have enough time. Don't have an excuse for not fellowshipping. You always have time for what you love. The Bible says and they continuing DAILY in the temple. Not twice a week or otherwise. Asides the apostles, great generals of God have dwelt in His presence and they became transformed beings carrying HIS presence, they became an expression of God's wo...

THE TONGUE

Image
Here's one of my poems to inspire us to tame our tongues As  mighty and fierce as the horses could be It is controlled with a bit and griddle As great as the sailing ships could be Driven by fierce and uncontrollable winds It is turned about with a small helm Yet, as tiny as the human tongue could be There has been no master yet No, not yet in history That could tame and control the tongue A little member of the body But it speaketh great things It is known for its prophecies How well it kindles fire It has trodden the mighty to the ground And yet has it lifted many It acts as a pen and an eraser It is full of evil and yet could speak of great and marvellous things It curses men and blesses men too This ought not to be Howbeit when it is made subject under the Spirit of God It becomes a great tool and a blessing for many generations .

STANDING OUT

Image
One major challenge faced by christians today is the difficulty of standing out. We find it hard to make firm decisions on the priorities and principles which govern our lives.

Maximising your time

Image
Hey guys.... Just a quick one for tonight... If you're wondering why your prayer life ain't going smooth as it should.  Here's something I think could help out!

THE NEED FOR GROWTH

Image
In the old testament, the tabernacle was made up of three subdivisions. As soon as you pass through the courtyard you'll come across the bronze altar(this is where blood sacrifice is made)- relating this  to this present dispensation, you only gain access to God's very presence by the finished work of Christ on the cross. After the bronze altar, you'll get to the laver. It sat on a stand, held gallons of water. This is where the  priests wash. This symbolises our everyday cleansing from sin. Sometimes we still sin so we come to Jesus and ask for forgiveness. We don't have to be saved again but we need to keep ourselves clean before God. (You take a bath once a day but you wash your hands many times a day). This laver was like a brass mirror. You could see yourself through it. In Jms 1:25 we are made to understand that the word if God is like a mirror. We need the word for our daily walk with God. We shouldn't study the scriptures to quench the guilty of not being...

OBEDIENCE- an indispensable tool to the fulfillment of your destiny

Image
Obedience is the act of following commands, guidance and instructions. It is complying to a set of rules. Many Christian's now see obedience as old school.

THE ESSENCE OF STRENGTH IS SELF CONTROL

Love personified

Image
I may have the gift of inspired preaching; i may have all knowledge and understand all secrets; i may have all the faith needed to move mountains-BUT IF I HAVE NO LOVE I AM NOTHING I may be able to speak the languages of human being and even of angels, BUT IF I HAVE NO LOVE, I AM NOTHING.....my speech is no more than a noisy gong or clanging bell I may give away everything i have, and even give up my body to be burnt- BUT IF I HAVE NO LOVE,I AM NOTHING There are inspired messages but they are temporary; There are gifts of speaking in strange tongues, but it will pass. LOVE IS ETERNAL When i was a child,my speech,feelings and thinking were all those of a child;now that i have grown up, i have no use for childish ways... Meanwhile these three remain: faith,hope and love ;and the greatest of these is LOVE..... LET LOVE LEAD #CoinedFrom1Cor13

THE BIBLE

Image
The bible is the book that contains the word of God, the state of man, the way of salvation, the doom of sinners and the happiness of believers. It's doctrines are holy; its precepts are binding; its histories are true; its decisions immutable. Read it to be wise, behave it to be safe , and practise it to be holy. It contains light to direct you, food to support you, comfort to cheer you. Its the travelers map, the pilgrims staff, the pilots compass, the soldiers sword, and the Christians charter. Here, heaven is opened and the gates of hell closed. Christ is its grand subject, our good urs design, and the glory of God its end. It should fill your memory, rule your heart and guide your feet in righteousness and true holiness. Read it slowly, frequently, prayerfully, meditatively, searchingly, devotionally, and study it constantly, preservingly and industriously. Read it through and through until it becomes part of your being and generates that faith that will move mountain. It ...

A house church in the former soviet union received a copy of the gospel of Luke. Since it was illegal to possess this scripture, they tore it to pieces and distributed it among the body of believers. Their plan was to memorize the portion they had been given, then on the next Lords day they would meet and redistribute the sections. On Sunday, these believers arrived in conspicuously in small groups throughout the day so as not to arouse the suspicion of KGB informers. By dusk they were all safely inside, windows closed and doors locked. They began singing a hymn quietly but with deep emotion. Suddenly the door was pushed open and in walked two soldiers with loaded automatic weapons at the ready. One shouted, all right everybody line up against the wall. If you wish to renounce your commitment to Jesus, leave now. Two or three quickly left, then another. After few more seconds, two more. This is your last chance. Either turn against your faith or stay and suffer the consequences. A...

Spiritual growth by Edozie Magdalene

Image
The same Holy spirit that made Jesus the living logos(an expression of the thoughts of God) has come unto us. He has come to give the thoughts of God an expression in your life. However, it is necessary for us to *willingly* align with the Holy Spirit in order for us to grow. I have always wondered at the secret behind the marvellous moves of the great generals of faith and as I began to grow spiritually, I realized that alignment was the key. The level/rate at which we are willing to align with the Spirit determines the extent to which God manifests in and through us. Alignment means to die to self. This is when you depend on the Spirit so that the things of the flesh will be pruned out with time. You need to have a personalized dealing with the Holy spirit. Every man of the secret place has such. You can listen to messages, read 50 books per year etc but its the dealings of the Spirit with you that causes progress in the Spirit. No man can grow in this dispensation outside the ...

The major reason why God ordered that a tabernacle be built for Him according to the pattern He prescribed is because He was willing to dwell with His people. After the construction of the tabernacle the Bible says that a cloud covered the tent of the congregation and the glory of God filled the tabernacle. In this present dispensation, we don't need a tabernacle or a temple per say. All we need is to present our bodies as living sacrifice in order to host God's presence. Jesus, Stephen and Paul did not have a pulpit, they had an undeniable presence. Philip moved here and there in the Spirit without an aircraft. So did men like Joshua Miles, John G Lake and apostle Afe Babalola. Joshua caused the sun to stand still. There are so many men who have been able to demonstrate the mystery of godliness here on earth- how that God could dwell in a man and manifest expressly. Jesus ministered to 5000 people without a microphone, did so many wonders that we know so well. There ar...

Why many do not pray!!

Image
The body of Christ is filled with so many prayerless Christians, people who prefer to blame God and the devil for the prevalent difficulties in their lives and families. Today we will look into three points as regards the reason why many do not pray: 1. *Laziness* : I don't really have much to say on this. We have been warned and taught severally concerning the dangers and repercussions of being lazy. Many believers prefer their pastors praying for them because they are spiritually lazy. Here's an excerpt from the _book of proverbs: _Awake ye sluggard, when will ye ever get up I'll just take a short nap; I'll fold my hands And I'll rest a while but while he slumbers, poverty comes around and attacks like a robber. Awake o' sluggard_ Stop looking for prayer warriors who will help you carry your burdens. Grow! 2. Procrastination: this is a challenge faced by everyone but many have mastered the art of maximizing their time while others have given in t...

Prayer

Image
Praying is hard work; it takes diligence to live a life of prayer. Basically, one major issue that has stopped believers from building their spiritual muscles in the place of prayer is time.

Tapping into the power of agreement

Image
Unity is standing together with one purpose, sharing a joint vision and trusting God's word to be fulfilled. God recognises people who work together in unity.

Brokenness

Image
Brokeness is the state of being contrite. Its something that God cannot ignore. In my walk with God, I've realised that there's a particular stage you'll get to, whereby you'll feel so weak to press on in faith; the desire is there but there's no more strength. Its at this stage that you realise that " by strength shall no man prevail"

Misplacement of priorities

Image
This has cost so.many believers their place on God. How do you rate God when it comes to importance and priorities? Its easy to say He's number one in your life but is that really the position He's occupying right now?? Many of us started our christian walk so well, placing everything in the right order. But right now, we can barely put everything under control as usual. Like majority of us would say, I don't have time! I have a lot to do! I just cant help it! I have a flight to catch up with! I am too tired and stressed up! I have tests and exams to write! I have a conference to attend...bla bla bla . When there's no more time to study the Bible as usual, when there's no more time to pray n commune with the spirit, when there's no more time to seek His counsel before taking a major step in your business or career, when the usual schedule for quiet time and intimacy with His Spirit has been swallowed up with so many activities; *that's when things have...
