The Antidote for Fear

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Trust in God; trust also in me.

John 14:1, NIV

Jesus commanded His disciples to “trust in God; trust also in me.” The antidote for fear is faith.

When I toss and turn in the middle of the night, worried and fearful over something that is impending in my life or the life of someone I love, I am comforted and calmed as I meditate on Who God is. It helps me plant my faith in Someone Who is bigger than my fears. I just fall back on Who God is and rest in Him. He cannot be less than Himself! And my God is God!

Next time you feel afraid, make up a list – not of your fears but of the characteristics of God. Find a Scripture verse or passage to substantiate each one as you reconsider your situation in light of Who God is. Then, if you feel it would be helpful to list your fears, make sure beside each one you write down the attribute of God that applies. The secret to peace lies in your focus.

Just For You

Just for You

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The whole earth is filled with awe at your wonders; where morning dawns, where evening fades, you call forth songs of joy.
Psalm 65:7-9

I’m about to tell you something that may stretch your imagination! You don’t have to agree. You don’t have to buy it. Just think about it!

If you were the only person on earth, the earth would look exactly the same. The Himalayas would still have their drama and the Caribbean would still have its charm. The sun would still nestle behind the Rockies in the evenings, and spray light on the desert in the mornings.

If you were the sole pilgrim on this globe, God would not diminish its beauty one degree. He’s waiting for you to stumble into the den, rub the sleep from your eyes, and see the bright red bike he assembled just for you!

He’s waiting for your eyes to pop and your heart to stop! In the silence he leans forward and whispers… “I did it just for you!”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

May the LORD bless Nigeria, American and Israel and take care of us; May the LORD make His face shine upon us, And be gracious to us; May the Lord lift up His countenance upon us, And give us peace, In Jesus Christ Name, we pray! Amen!

Our Home, God’s Church


Stained glass at St John the Baptist's Anglica...

Our Home, God’s Church

The church is not a gathering of strangers, like fans at a ball game who just happen to be sitting next to each other. The church is a community of individuals spiritually linked together with the purpose of reflecting and legislating the values of the kingdom of God.

The church is critical in the process of growing mature disciples who imitate Jesus Christ because Jesus is relational. Jesus Himself stated the key identifier that would tell us who were His disciples and who were not, and that is our love for one another.

God’s people are so vitally connected that we’re like members of the same physical body. The parts of your body are in a relationship with the other parts. Just smash your thumb or stub your toe, and you’ll have a good biblical reminder of the interrelationship of your bodily members. Once you disconnect a body part, you cut off its ability to function because it is separated from the source of its life.

That is why Paul calls the Church the “household of God.” Your home is supposed to be the place where you give and receive love unconditionally. It takes more than the paid professional staff in a church to produce this kind of love. It has to come from each one of us toward each other in dynamic relationships that encourage and edify each other.

For God’s Kingdom

May the LORD bless Nigeria, American and Israel and take care of us; May the LORD make His face shine upon us, And be gracious to us; May the Lord lift up His countenance upon us, And give us peace, In Jesus Christ Name, we pray! Amen!

Keeping Up With the Joneses


English: 4 days of Evangelism Training in Sout...

Keeping Up With the Joneses

Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in
whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. I know both how to
be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I
am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and
to suffer need. I can do all things through Christ which
strengtheneth me

Philippians 4:11-13

People get into financial trouble when they violate the scriptural principle of not coveting. To covet is to long after something. We’re
supposed to fix our desire upon Jesus. He is the one whom we long after
and follow.

The mentality of the world (and a lot of believers stay in the way of
the world) is that they have to keep up with the Joneses. Or else they
have big eyes, desiring everything they see. When people run after
money so they can be fulfilled, they are guilty of coveting. Coveting
gets you into trouble.

God has promised to give you abundance because He loves you and you
obey Him. But life is not based on what you have. Your life is in
Jesus. He is your sufficiency. All the rest is just bonus material that
God gives you to use as you bring more people to Jesus.

God Or Man Pleasers

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

John 5:43-44, “I am come in my Father’s name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive. How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

JOHN 5:28-47

This is in reference to the fact that Jesus came in the power and authority of His father to point men to Father God. Jesus existed before His advent on this earth in the form of God and was equal with God. Yet, He humbled Himself and became a servant while here on earth (Phil. 2:6-8).

He did not come to promote Himself but to give His life to provide the way to the Father (Jn. 14:6). In the same way, the Holy Spirit does not exalt Himself, but points all men unto Jesus. Jesus came, meek and lowly, totally submitted unto and seeking only to please the Father.

This is radically different from the way so called “great men” present themselves. The Roman Caesar of Jesus’ day proclaimed that he was God and demanded worship. Lesser leaders ruled by exalting themselves over the people they governed; but, Jesus showed us that “whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister; and whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant: even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many” (Mt. 20:26-28).

If we are concerned about what people think in an attempt to gain their approval (or honour), we will never take a stand in faith for anything that might be criticized. This one thing has probably stopped as many people from receiving from God as anything else. You cannot be a “man-pleaser” and please God at the same time. Commit your all to Him – every thought, word, and deed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

May the LORD bless Nigeria, American and Israel and take care of us; May the LORD make His face shine upon us, And be gracious to us; May the Lord lift up His countenance upon us, And give us peace, In Jesus Christ Name, we pray! Amen!

Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path. Psalms 119:105

God Has Stacked the Deck!

Followers of Jesus Christ have a tremendous advantage that allows us to navigate the peaks and valleys of this world. God in His infinite wisdom created a manual for living that encompasses life from its beginning to its end.

It tells us all the attributes of the God we serve, chronicles His walk on earth and prescribes our path to eternal salvation. His manual covers all aspects of life. It leaves us without any want for knowledge.

Yet in spite of God’s best efforts, many believers are confused and disheartened. Our confusion comes from not reading the Scriptures for all they are worth.

The Lord urges us to meditate on His Word. It is a “lamp onto our feet and a light unto our path” (Psalms 119:105). When digested, His Word illuminates the path before us, allowing us to have insight and foresight.

Oh, what a blessing for the believer who spends time in the Word. There is no problem too difficult, no circumstance too overwhelming, no situation beyond comprehension. Get into the Word; God has already provided the answers. It’s all in His book… the Bible. Study His Word today.

God is Spirit and those who worship Him must worship in spirit (John 4:24)

God is Spirit and those who worship Him must worship in spirit (John 4:24)

Someone has said that we are not human beings trying to have a spiritual experience but spiritual beings trying to have a human experience. The life force within you came from God, Who is Spirit. So in the act of worship. It’s like going back to your beginnings and reconnecting with Him.

The story is told of a little boy sitting beside the crib of his newborn baby sister. He whisper to her, “Tell me what God is like, for I have forgotten.”

Jesus said, “God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in Spirit (out of the depths of your spirit).

When asked how he could score over eighty points for his team in a single game, basketball superstar Michael Jordan replied, “Because I was in the zone”. In a sense, heartfelt worship takes you into God’s – zone! David the Psalmist lived there. “Seven times a day do I praise (You)….”(Psalm 119:164) “From the rising of the sun to its going down the Lord’s name is to be praised” (Psalm 113:3) “As the deer pants for the water brooks, so pants my soul for You, O God” (Psalm 42:1). What a picture. In the stream of God’s presence our deepest thirst is quenched, our wounds are healed, our strength is renewed, and we are placed beyond the reach of the enemy.

Henry Blacaby says, “You will never be satisfied just to know about God. Really knowing God comes only through experience as He reveals Himself to you.” And that is what happens when you spend time “In the worship zone”

May the LORD bless Nigeria, American and Israel and take care of us; May the LORD make His face shine upon us, And be gracious to us; May the Lord lift up His countenance upon us, And give us peace, In Jesus Christ Name, we pray! Amen!

The only time you are guaranteed rest is in God’s presence


English: Resurrection of Christ

The only time you are guaranteed rest is in God’s presence

“And he said unto Him, if Thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence.” (Exodus 33:15)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When Christ is with you, God is with you. Psalm 121:5 says, “The LORD is thy Keeper: The LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.” When Christ is with you, God’s shadow will follow you wherever you go.

Three fishes in an ocean were terrified by some sharks whenever they went swimming. One day, they held a prayer meeting and invited God to be in attendance. When God came down, He asked them what they each wanted. The first fish asked for eyes all over its body so that from a long distance, it could sight the sharks coming. The second fish requested wings to fly whenever it was being chased by the sharks. The third fish simply requested that God should follow it wherever it went. The Lord granted all their requests.

Immediately God left, the first fish realized that all the scales on its body had become eyes. Its new look attracted the sharks and they began to pursue it. From a distance, it sighted the sharks swim fast towards it. Immediately, it leaped into a small pool of water nearby. Safe from the sharks, it began to laugh at the predators. Hours later, however, the pool dried up and it died. The sharks then turned their sight on the second fish. As it was being chased, it flew out of the ocean, and from a safe height began to mock the sharks. Unfortunately, an eagle was flying overhead and, thanking God, snapped up the fish. Meanwhile, the third fish was swimming quietly and enjoying itself. The baby shark told its mother that there was another, seemingly not afraid of them. Now, when the baby shark asked that they go after the fish, its mother cautioned: “Can’t you see the shadow of a man following that fish? If you go near it, you will be killed.”  That was how the third fish survived the sharks. When Christ is with you, there will be no need to fret. He will take care of you. Is Christ with you? Do you feel His presence? Or do you like the first two fishes prefer something else to God’s presence? Moses, like the third fish, chose well; he refused to go anywhere if God would not follow him. Are you going to places without God’s presence? Do not be surprised when you meet with disappointment.

According to Exodus 33:14, the only time you are guaranteed rest is in God’s presence!

Your Pay Day Will Come


Jesus is considered by scholars such as Weber ...

Your pay day will come

 

“For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed towards His name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.” (Hebrews 6:10)

Apart from the possibility of encountering an extraordinary blessing on an ordinary day, another lesson from the story of Moses recorded in Exodus 2:5-10, is that God has different ways of rewarding His own. Hebrews 6:10 says God does not forget your labour of love. Every seed you have sown into the kingdom shall attract its reward. Have you been a blessing to your spiritual parents? You shall be rewarded. Every work or effect, as long as it is an act of faith, will elicit Heaven’s reward. After Moses was born, his mother was able to see beyond the physical that he was a child of destiny and so, contrary to the king’s decree and probably pressures from those around, she decided to hide the child until she could hide him no more. She wanted God’s purpose to be accomplished in the life of her son, and so was prepared to risk her life in the process. What if the soldiers had found the boy in his hiding place? She could have lost her life. God saw her act of faith and took over from where she stopped. Eventually, God decided to pay her for her faith and sacrifice.

 

“And Pharaoh’s daughter said unto her. Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give thee thy wages.  And the woman took the child, and nursed it.” (Exodus 2:9). God knows how to reward His children. He also has diverse ways of doing this. He can reward you directly. He can reward you through your husband, wife, child or relative; He can reward you through your place of work, He can reward you through an old but forgotten acquaintance; He can reward you through those you do not know. He can even reward you through your enemies. In the case of Moses’ mother, God rewarded her faith by reuniting her son with her under the tightest security arrangement. Also, she was handsomely paid to do what she knew best-taking care of her son. She became the only Israelite woman that the government paid and protected to keep her baby alive, while all other baby boys were condemned to die. Not even the Egyptians babies got one hundredth of such privilege! Are you afraid to take a step of faith? Go ahead and take it; you cannot tell what it will deliver to you. Are you a teacher of toddlers and teens, or are you a parent taking care of your children? Do it faithfully and the owner, The Most High, will more than handsomely reward you.

Key Point: Many parents will lose their earthly or eternal reward for failing to take adequate care of their children.

 

May the LORD bless Nigeria, American and Israel and take care of us; May the LORD make His face shine upon us, And be gracious to us; May the Lord lift up His countenance upon us, And give us peace, In Jesus Christ Name, we pray! Amen!

Is Christ In You?


Stained glass at St John the Baptist's Anglica...

Is Christ In You?

 

 

“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.” (Col.1:27)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The person in you has great effect on your performance. Whether your potentials will be realized or not, depends to a large extent on who is in you. If Christ is in you, it means the Anointed One is in you. It also means the Baptizer in the Holy Spirit, the Fire Generator is in you. With the presence of Christ in you, there is greater power inside you. 1 John 4:4 says, “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world”. Although the Greater One: The Lord Jesus Christ is the Almighty God, yet, inside some of His children, He is only a little seed which has no impact on them. If after receiving Christ, you refused to grow in His grace, He will remain a seed in you. As long as Jesus is not growing in you, He is limited in your life. In that limited state, your external enemies would appear bigger and in control. To take charge of your situation, you must daily make efforts to grow in the grace of Jesus Christ. Grow in His Word. Fill yourself with the Scriptures. Regularly attract His presence and be a carrier of it.

If those around you find it difficult to identify you as Christian, it simply means that Jesus in you is still in His infancy. If Christ, the Anointed One, is the One inside you, He will surely manifest. You cannot hide the anointing. It will surely speak. Many believers are yet to exploit the possibilities of blessings inherent in Jesus Christ. Are you in that situation today? Wake up! It is time to grow the One inside you so as to take charge of the one outside. It took a young David carrying the Lord of Hosts on the inside of him to defeat the Goliath outside. Until Christ is fully formed in you, you may not see Him manifesting in His glory. His goodness and grace may remain a mystery. When He is fully formed in you, however, He will radiate through you and bring everything else under control. Is Christ formed in you?

 

Key Point: Christ needs to take His rightful place inside you in order for satan and his cohorts to accept their place under your feet. Make maximum room for Him in your life, now!

Read: 1 John 3:8–10

 

May the LORD bless Nigeria, American and Israel and take care of us; May the LORD make His face shine upon us, And be gracious to us; May the Lord lift up His countenance upon us, And give us peace, In Jesus Christ Name, we pray! Amen!

All of God’s power is wrapped up in the Gospel

All of God’s power is wrapped up in the Gospel

 

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth…..(Romans 1:16)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our Lord Jesus Christ told us to preach the gospel which is the “Good News” of what His death, burial and resurrection accomplished for humanity. The gospel is more than a nice moralistic story of what God’s Son did for humanity. According to the bible, the gospel is in itself the power of God unto salvation. The Word “Salvation” is the all-encompassing word that describes the totality of the good work God has wrought for us. This means that the totality of God’s power to do anything for any man is fully resident in the Gospel. It is this power that turns sinners into saints in a moment of time.

It doesn’t matter what need a man might have, the solution is in the Gospel. All you need to come out trouble or any precarious situation is to hear and receive the Gospel of Christ Jesus as pertains to your situation. For example, the Gospel to the one who is broke and in debt is that he has an inheritance in Christ Jesus and so he has no business living in lack. As soon as he receives that Word and endorses it, that’ll be the end of his poverty.

The Gospel to the one who is sick is that divine health has been made available through Christ Jesus. As soon as he receives it, it will be impossible for sickness and disease to hold him down. No matter the situation in which you find yourself, the solution is the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Thus if you’re reading this today and you’re not yet saved, what you need is to believe in your heart, and declare with your mouth that Jesus is the Lord of your life from this day forward! Ask Him to come live in you and make your heart the place of His abode. When you do this, God’s power will begin to work in you and you’ll be awakened to the fatherhood of God. You’ll become a brand new species of being that never existed before (2 Corinthians 5:17)! That’s the power of the Gospel!

 

Prayer:  Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for showing me the awesome power that’s wrapped up in the Gospel. I thank You for making the provisions of the Gospel available to me such that I can direct your power at any situation I desire to change, in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

May the LORD bless Nigeria, American and Israel and take care of us; May the LORD make His face shine upon us, And be gracious to us; May the Lord lift up His countenance upon us, And give us peace, In Jesus Christ Name, we pray! Amen!
