Isn’t it wonderful to know that you have access to supernatural wisdom?


Isn’t it wonderful to know that you have access to supernatural wisdom?

Proverbs_9-10-2: The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding

Proverbs_9-10-2: The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding

True wisdom

Wisdom will control your mind….sound judgment and good sense will watch over you. Wisdom will protect you from evil schemes…

Proverbs 2:10-12 (CEV)

True wisdom is itself supernatural, because it comes from God alone. The world has its definition of what wisdom is, for example they define it as “Ability to apply knowledge or experience or understanding or common sense and insight.” However, wisdom is a lot more than just the ability to apply knowledge.

Wisdom is a force. It makes you do the things that you should do, say the things you should say and causes you to function beyond your human reasoning. When wisdom is working in you, you will take steps beyond your reasoning. The good news is that Christ has been made unto you wisdom (1 Corinthians 1:30) and He is the embodiment of all wisdom (Colossians 2:3).

Isn’t it wonderful to know that you have access to supernatural wisdom? As it functions in you, it causes you to make accurate choices and judgments. That should make you an excellent student at school and an excellent employer or employee at work! Your academics, business and other aspects of life would be truly supernatural because you’re blessed with supernatural wisdom.

The Bible says, “……thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying. This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when you turn to the left” (Isaiah 30:21). That means that with supernatural wisdom working in you, your life will no longer be one of “guess work.” This is why you need to take advantage of the wisdom of God that is in Christ. The more you meditate on the Word of God, the greater the force of supernatural wisdom that will operate in your life.

Proverbs_1-7: The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction

Proverbs_1-7: The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction

Prayer:

Dear Heavenly Father, I thank You for giving me access to Your treasury of wisdom in Christ. I pray Your wisdom would continually manifest in every area of my life. I yield my spirit, soul and body to the force of Your wisdom to move me and guide me into the right path every day, in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

As You Renew Your Mind with the Word of God, You’ll Discover That All Things Are Possible


As You Renew Your Mind with the Word of God, You’ll Discover That All Things Are Possible

Mark_9-23-1: Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth

Mark_9-23-1: Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth

Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life

Proverbs 4:23

I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

The type of information you feed your mind and spirit determine your character, personality and the kind of life you’ll live. Therefore, the information you expose yourself to will either make or mar you.

Have you ever seen a dead person? How did you know the person was dead? You couldn’t have known what death is like by yourself, since you haven’t died before. You thought the person was dead because you had been informed that corpses are cold and stiff, they don’t move, talk or breathe. When you looked at the man, you observe he was that way and you believed. Your knowledge was all based on information you were exposed to.

Revelation_21-4: And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away

Revelation_21-4: And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away

The corpse of a young guy was being taken to the cemetery. Jesus stopped the funeral procession, turned to the corpse and said, “Young man get up.” The young man got up immediately (Luke 7:14-15). When He was told a little girl just died, He said she was only sleeping and He proved it by waking her up to the astonishment of all (Mark 5:38-42). Four days after Lazarus was buried, Jesus showed up. He uttered a simple prayer, stood at the entrance of the sepulchre and called out, Lazarus, come forth!” the man that was dead and stinking came out alive (John 11:41-44). Hallelujah!

Jeremiah_33-3: Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not

Jeremiah_33-3: Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not

How come Jesus talked to dead corpses? It was because He didn’t walk with human information. Was He trying to act faith when He addressed the corpse? No! He was being real! I’m sure He had the same information about corpses being cold, stiff and unresponsive. However, Jesus refused to be dominated or influenced by such.

John_16-33: These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world

John_16-33: These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world

I showed you all these to let you see why you must refuse to allow your mind be controlled by worldly information. This can only be done with the Word of God, for that’s the only information you need. Don’t just accept everything the world says without judging it with the Word of God. As you renew your mind with the Word of God, you’ll discover that all things are possible.

Prayer:

 

Dear Heavenly Father! I yield my body, soul and spirit to the cleansing power of Your Word. Let it fill me through and through, removing every information or idea that doesn’t have its origin in You, in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

“What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?” Roman 8:31

David was the man God called after Saul disappointed Him. The Bible said of David I have found me a man after my own heart. In other words God found the man that will do what He wants. And then He sent Prophet Samuel to the house of Jesse to anoint David as king. When he got there all the sons of Jesse came; Eliab, Abinadab, Shamak and the rest came but David was not there. It happened that God was organizing something for David but he was not invited. Let me tell you child of God, whatever the Lord has packaged for you, no one will take away from you. They can manipulate and do all human arrangements but as long as it is not God’s arrangement they will never take it away from you. God’s word concerning you will come to pass and if no one will speak for you God Himself will speak for you. At times we may not have a voice but I am glad that the God that we serve has the loudest voice. He knows how to speak for people who cannot speak for themselves.

Jeremiah_29-11: For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end

Jeremiah_29-11: For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end

They had to look for David. So they will look for you because nothing will proceed without you because you have a vital role to play. They looked for David and he was anointed king in the midst of his brethren. This was a man that was forgotten but suddenly, in an instant, he became king.

Beloved, you must allow God to be God. In addition to the foregoing, someone was at the palace speaking on behalf of David. Saul became mentally deranged and someone said to the king I know a man who knows how to play music and your condition will be minimized. David did not solicit for the publicity. In the same vein God will make it happen for you.

Psalms_5-12-1: For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

Psalms_5-12-1: For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

David suddenly moved from the backside of the desert where he was playing music for animals to the palace. I declare that you are moving to the palace. Right now it looks as if you are a nobody, you come into church and go out, and nobody recognizes you. Just keep coming. All I can promise you is that the word of God will do wonders in your life. What he did for others He will do in your life. Favour will attend to you anywhere you go. You will attract favour nationally and internationally. What has been difficult for you to sell, this month you will sell it. Beginning from now your testimony starts. The treasures of darkness and hidden riches of secret places, the treasures in the sand, in the air, in the trees, in the hills and valleys and mountains, treasures that are yet hidden that no one has found, I release them to you now. This year you will overtake your overtakers, Amen!

A pastor at the Christian Proctor Church in Vermont, USA, has been sentenced to one year in federal prison after refusing to marry gay couples, according to NBC. This comes shortly after the Supreme Court’s 5-4 decision ruling that states must allow gay-marriage.

The Christian Pastor, 56-year-old Paul Horner, had his lawyer speak to reporters on his behalf.

“We are currently disputing the guilty verdict and I am confident my client will be a free man here shortly,” said attorney Tom Downey. “Horner was just using his best judgement according to his rights and religious freedom in this country.”

The Honorable Myron Danus (pictured above) handed down the harsh sentence. “Religious freedom goes both ways, Mr. Horner,” Danus told a packed courtroom. “It is not your place to deny individuals the same rights that everyone else has, rights that were passed down and agreed upon in a court of law, the ultimate court, the Supreme Court. It is not your decision whether or not you agree with the law but more importantly that you follow it and enforce it.”

According to the criminal investigation, the Christian Proctor Church is registered with the state as a “religious corporation” limited to performing “one-man-one-woman marriages as defined by the Holy Bible.” But the church is also registered as a for-profit business and city officials said that means the owners must comply with state and federal regulations.

Steve Shand president of the Vermont Family Research Committee, said it is “open season on Americans who refuse to bow to the government’s redefinition of marriage.”

Homosexuals are gay,” Shand told reporters. “Why should Christian ministers be forced to perform and celebrate any marriage that conflicts with their beliefs? It’s a slippery slope my friend. Pretty soon these same pastors will be forced to wed animals or kitchen appliances. This is not my America!”

Gwen Hawkins who is president of the LGBT Pride Center in Vermont said she is happy with the guilty verdict.

“We just want the same rights as everyone else and this guilty verdict sets a great precedent,” Hawkins said. “These fanatical Christians base their life on one verse in the Bible but they seem to forget the other 99% of the verses in the book. For example, why can’t we stone to death Bristol Palin for having a baby out of wedlock? And what about her mother, Sarah Palin, breaking the rules of Corinthians 14:34 which clearly state that as a woman, she is not allowed to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet. But no, they like to pick the one verse in the Bible about gay people and build their camp around it.”

Proctor is a town in Rutland County, Vermont, United States. The population was 1,741 at the 2010 census. Proctor is home to the Vermont Marble Museum and Wilson Castle.

Philippians_1-6-1: Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. God Is Good

Philippians_1-6-1: Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. God Is Good

This Scripture reveals one of the most beautiful evidence of the presence and influence of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer. You become fruitful and productive when the Spirit of God comes upon your life. He brings in an anointing that affects your life and causes things to work.

Ephesians_2-10: For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

Ephesians_2-10: For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

Things may go bad and cause your life to be a wilderness, but that is until the Spirit is poured upon you from high. It is the Spirit that changes things. I wish many people would understand what the anointing does. The anointing of God’s Spirit has to do with the presence of God. So, in the opening Scripture when the Prophet Isaiah said,Until the Spirit be poured upon us from on high,” he meant,until the anointing comes upon us

Psalms_16-11: Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

Psalms_16-11: Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

But we’re not those waiting for the anointing to come upon us. If you’ve received the Holy Spirit of God, then the Spirit has been poured upon you from on high. Thus you don’t need to struggle to be successful, fruitful or productive.

Acts_1-8: But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

Acts_1-8: But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

You may look at your life and there’s so much unproductivity; you may look at your home and it’s like a desert; your finances may be in zero, and your health deteriorating by the day but, if you have the Holy Spirit, water will spring up from your desert! You will experience productivity and growth in every area of your life. You will move forward. There will be a bursting forth on your right hand and on your left.

God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect

God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect

You may say, “ But I’m not experiencing dryness, and my life is not unproductive.” Well, thank God for you, for there’s something better: your fruitful field can become a forest! This means you can be more productive spiritually and financially. Your life can affect more people for Jesus. You can move from experiencing divine healing to divine health. There’s always something better for you in Christ! Glory to God! Hallelujah!

Prayer:

Dear Lord, You have established me to be fruitful and productive in life! I’m like a tree by the rivers of water. I’m fruitful in every good work, even as I increase in the knowledge of God. Amen!

So, if Satan showed up in your room, don’t be scared, we are superior to him


So, if Satan showed up in your room, don’t be scared, we are superior to him

Matthew_28-18-1: And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth

Matthew_28-18-1: And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth

And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you

Luke 10:18-19

Luke_19-10: For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.

Luke_19-10: For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.

I remember reading a book a long time ago in which the author stated that we ought to talk to Satan with some respect. I was surprised. “Dear God! Talk to Satan with respectI thought. It’s obvious the author didn’t understand what the Lord Jesus meant when He said, “And these signs shall follow them that believe; in my name shall they cast out devils….” Mark 16:17. Notice that He didn’t say we should ask devils to go but cast them out. “Kick out, throw out, chuck out, push out with force these are just some of the synonyms for “Cast out”. Surely this isn’t a respectful way to treat someone.

Ephesians_6-11: Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil

Ephesians_6-11: Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil

You might be reading this and wondering, “But, the Bible did say even Archangel Michael didn’t dare insult the devil amidst their dispute. You’re right but I want to explain why he had to address the devil in that manner. But first let’s read the scripture you’re referring to: “ Yet Michael The archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee” Jude 1:9. Firstly, remember that this event took place before Jesus was born into the world. Secondly, at this time, Satan still had the adamic authority which he stole from Adam in the Garden of Eden, where he disobeyed God and acted on Satan’s rebellious words. Now adamic authority was higher than angelic authority. But when Jesus died and resurrected, He gave us a higher authority than what Adam had or what Satan received from Adam.

 

 

 

 

 

But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ

But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ

The Bible says that when Jesus died, we died with Him. When He was buried, we were buried with Him. When God raised Him up, we were raised together with Him. And now we’re seated together with Him in the heavenly realms (Ephesians 2:5-6). That’s our authority! Our authority is not that of a religious person; our authority is that of the blessed Jesus Christ, the Son of God; we function in His Name.

1-John_5-4-3: For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith

1-John_5-4-3: For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith

Several years ago, an evil spirit walked into the room while I was sleeping. Immediately, my eyes opened, I turned to him and I started to say, in the ……” I didn’t get to finish my statement before he disappeared. Hallelujah! So, if Satan showed up in your room, don’t be perturbed; rather, command him to get out, and he will (James 4:7). We are superior to Satan; the Lord Jesus Christ has given us complete authority over him and his cohorts. (Luke 19:18-19). Therefore, reign in that greater revelation of your authority over him every day.

2-Corinthians_2-14: Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place

2-Corinthians_2-14: Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place

Confession:

 

 

Thank You Lord for the ability to function in the Name of Jesus Christ; in Him I live, and move and have my being. Therefore, I am not afraid of Satan and his schemes because I’m seated with my Lord Jesus Christ, far above all principalities and power, Hallelujah!

I carry in me the dynamic ability to cause changes, and I unlock this power as I pray earnestly today


I carry in me the dynamic ability to cause changes, and I unlock this power as I pray earnestly today

James_5-16: Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

James_5-16: Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available (dynamic in its working)

James 5:16 AMP

Romans_12-12: Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer

Romans_12-12: Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer

Have you ever carefully considered the fact that there’s enough power in you to turn any situation around in your favour? This is what James 5:16 indicates. You can change anything because the divine power necessary to cause that change is already inside you; it was deposited in you the moment you received the Holy Spirit into your life But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you…..” Acts 1:8.

The word “Power” here refers to the dynamic ability to cause change!

However, the presence of this power alone doesn’t guarantee its availability. For example, you can be present with someone, but not available to that person. It’s like a man, who, though is in the house, is not available to his wife: he’s in the living room, reading a newspaper, and his wife is talking to him, but he’s not listening. He’s present with her, but not available to her this illustration enables us to know that being present is not the same as being available. To be available is to give your attention and cooperation.

1-Thessalonians_5-17: Pray without ceasing

1-Thessalonians_5-17: Pray without ceasing

So how do I make the power available?” you may ask. The answer is in James 5:16: “….. The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available…” (AMP). This doesn’t refer to the hurried prayer you do at your dinner table or while rushing to work. Jesus referred to this kind of prayer in Matthew 6:6. It’s done with so much passion and emotion, and for that reason you may have to separate yourself from everybody. Jesus prayed like this many times. No wonder the power of God was always available to Him throughout His earthly ministry.

James_5-16: Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

James_5-16: Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

Set yourself to pray like this often – earnestly, fervently, passionately and intensely; and watch yourself move from one level of glory to another, as you walk in the supernatural everyday of your life.

Confession:

I carry in me the dynamic ability to cause changes, and I unlock this power as I pray earnestly today, bringing the dynamic ability and power of God to bear in my life and upon every situation where I desire a change, In Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

No human being can meet all your needs. He may be able to meet your physical, material and emotional needs. But it takes God and God alone to meet your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual needs abundantly.

John_10-10: The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

John_10-10: The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

This is why He is the All sufficient One, Genesis 17:1, John 10:10. May the All Sufficient God meet all your needs as we study in Jesus Name, Amen!

John_10-11:  I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.

John_10-11: I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.

  1. He knows your needs and how to meet them.

Your needs, for salvation, healings, wealth, peace, victory, fruitfulness and joy, God has adequately provided for, 1 John 1:7, 1 Peter 2:24, 2 Corinthians 8:9, Isaiah 9:6, Revelation 12:11, John 15:1-5, Psalm 16:11

 

John_10-9: I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture.

John_10-9: I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture.

  1. God is more than Sufficient.

Whether it be in the physical area like food, wine or life generally, or in spiritual matters like salvation, answer to prayers, home in heaven, anointing and eternal goodness God is more than sufficient. John 6:5-13, John 2:1-11, Hebrews 7:25, Ephesians 3:20, John 14:1-3, Psalm 23:5, Psalm 23:6.

Conclusion:

And all He asks of you is to obey Him willingly and do His will in total surrender, Isaiah 19, John 15:16. May God give you the grace to do so in Jesus Name. will you like to talk to Him now, John 16:24

God looks at our hearts and He checks our motives.


God looks at our hearts and He checks our motives

Psalms_51-10: Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me

Psalms_51-10: Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me

What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit his very self?

Luke 9:25

Mark_8-36: For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

Mark_8-36: For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

Did you know that you can do very spiritual things that are still rooted in self ?

You can sing in the choir, lifting up songs to God, but your motive could be to be seen by men. You can become a leader or go into ministry because you want to feel important. That is why God looks at the heart and He checks our motives (1 Samuel 16:7).

Wrong motives will not please God. We can fool men who look at the outward demonstrations…but God knows the truth and He will not be pleased.

Check your motives. Ask yourself if you need to be in charge. Do you need to have your opinion followed? Then ask yourself if it is about God. Will God be pleased?

The only way to be in the will of God and to have the mind of God is to go the way of the cross. Our motives should be to please God-not ourselves-to give Him pleasure.

We were created for His pleasure, according to Revelation 4:11. God is pleased with us when our motives are selfless instead of selfish.

Merry Heart And A Broken Spirit


Merry Heart And A Broken Spirit

Proverbs_17-22-1: A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones

Proverbs_17-22-1: A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones

A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.

Proverbs 17:22

The Hebrew word that is translated “Merry” in this proverb means blithe, gleeful, joyful, merry or rejoicing. The Hebrew word that is translated “Does Good” means makes well. Have you ever seen advertisements on TV for the latest offering by the pharmaceutical companies? At first, those new prescriptive medications sound like they can do wonderful things-and they may! However, have you ever listened to the possible side effects? I’ve heard of medicines that can include side effects that range from indigestion to blindness and everything in between! I would rather take medicine that had no negative side effects, wouldn’t you? The Bible has just the prescription! A joyful heart is the best medicine you can take and it doesn’t have any side effects!

Psalms_98-4: Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise. Thank You Jesus

Psalms_98-4: Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise .Thank You Jesus

When you choose to have a merry heart, your body will respond positively, but the opposite is also true. The second half of Proverbs 17:22 tells us what happens to you when your heart isn’t merry. The word “Broken” means afflicted or wounded or hurt. That kind of heart will dry the bones. Doctors tell us that our bones should be moist. Having dried bones means that you can easily fall. Older people can often have devastating falls if their bones are weak and brittle instead of moist and strong. A rejoicing heart, however, is medicine to the bones. There is a direct correlation between your long-term health and your joy. Joy has a whole lot to do with how long you live and what quality of life you have while you live it.

Prayer for Today

Thank You, Lord for giving me the source of joy in Your Word. I am so thankful that joy is medicine to my bones and that it will strengthen me to do Your will, in Jesus’ name.

Psalms_9-1: I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.

Psalms_9-1: I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.

You must have an altar

Genesis 35:1-3:

1 Then God said to Jacob, “Go up to Bethel and settle there, and build an altar there to God, who appeared to you when you were fleeing from your brother Esau.”

2 So Jacob said to his household and to all who were with him, “Get rid of the foreign gods you have with you, and purify yourselves and change your clothes.

3 Then come, let us go up to Bethel, where I will build an altar to God, who answered me in the day of my distress and who has been with me wherever I have gone.”

Matthew_5-14: Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid, I Am The Light Of The World

Matthew_5-14: Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid, I Am The Light Of The World

Psalm 43:3-4:

3 O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.

4 Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.

Yield not to your earthly desires.

Colossians 3:5: New Living Translation

So put to death the sinful, earthly things lurking within you. Have nothing to do with sexual immorality, impurity, lust, and evil desires. Don’t be greedy, for a greedy person is an idolater, worshiping the things of this world.

1-Peter_2-2:As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby

1-Peter_2-2:As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby

CONCLUSION:

Spiritual growth is not a magic, but a task. Make up your mind against every obstacle not to negotiate your personal fellowship for any other thing.

God works for the good of those who love him


God works for the good of those who love him

Romans_8-28: And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose

Romans_8-28: And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose

In all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

Romans 8:28, NIV

Romans 8:28 says, “in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” In other words, when you are in the purpose, or will, of God, everything that comes into your life can work for your good. You may immediately question how the loss of your job can be for your good, or how your illness can be for your good. If, by “good,” Romans 8:28 meant your comfort, convenience, health, wealth, prosperity, pleasure, or happiness, we would all question it! But your ultimate good is conformity to the image of Jesus Christ. And when you are in God’s will – “called according to his purpose” – everything God allows into your life is used by Him to make you like Christ. Everything!

When We Pray With Our Children


When We Pray With Our Children

“As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love.

One of the most significant ways we convey spiritual truth to our children is through our prayers. I believe that when we pray with our children, our children learn about our relationship with Our Heavenly Father and what we believe about Him. Let’s look at three things we teach our children when they listen to us pray.

 

  1. When we pray, our children learn that we have a sincere relationship with the Lord.

This past Sunday I was talking with a friend about what children learn when they listen to their parents pray. He shared with me that when he was growing up his father’s prayers were formulaic and seemed artificial to him. But in recent years my friend has noticed a change in his elderly father’s relationship with the Lord. What’s significant is that the chief way he has come to recognize the change is by listening to the way his father prays.

Matthew_21-22: And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

Matthew_21-22: And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

I grew up with a mother who had a sensitive relationship with the Lord, and I knew it from the way that she prayed. When I was a child she used to tell me that even if all my friends stopped being my friends, Jesus would always be my friend. I believed her. The reason I believed her is that when she prayed I could tell that she was talking to her closest friend.

Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God, Prayer Works, God Answers Prayers

Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God, Prayer Works, God Answers Prayers

  1. When we pray, our children learn that we actually believe that God can and will answer our prayers.

I want my children to know that when we pray, we are speaking to a God who is strong enough to answer our prayers and who cares deeply enough to act on our behalf.

John_14-1: Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me

John_14-1: Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me

  1. When we pray, our children learn what we believe about God.

Your children will learn from you that God is holy by listening to the way you confess your sins; that God is a God of power when you worship him; that God truly cares when you call upon him in your time of need, and so on.

When I’m alone with the Lord, one of the prayers I pray more than any other is:

“Lord, I want it to be real. I don’t want to be a fake. I need Your grace to live out what I teach.” But I think it’s good to remember that our children are listening.

Proverbs_22-6: Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it

Proverbs_22-6: Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it

Redeemed Christian Church of God. RCCG. 63rd Annual RCCG Convention. The All Sufficient God. Welcome Message By Pastor E A Adeboye


Redeemed Christian Church of God. RCCG. 63rd Annual RCCG Convention.  The All Sufficient God. Welcome Message By Pastor E A Adeboye

63rd RCCG August 2015 Annual Convention. The All Sufficient God

63rd RCCG August 2015 Annual Convention. The All Sufficient God

The Lord has preserved us to see another Convention of His Church and to participate in the blessings that He alone can give. We therefore welcome you to the convention of “The All Sufficient God”. This year’s theme holds lots of promises for all of us who will participate in all the proceedings and our lives will be imparted in ways we have never imagined.

The All Sufficient One has enough blessings to give all His Children because there is no shortage in His storehouse. He appeared to Abraham as the El Shaddai, the One who is more than enough (Genesis 17:1), and He is still the same till this moment. During this Convention, He will release His all-sufficiency concerning all your long-awaited miracles and you will become a testimony in the Name of Jesus.

The All Sufficient One rules by decrees. He commanded light where there was darkness and darkness had no option but to take its leave (Genesis 1:3). He commanded ravens to feed Elijah and they did not their way (1 Kings 17:4-6). He is the One who calls those things that be not as though they were (Romans 4:17) and He has not changed. You will encounter Him again as He decrees goodness, mercy, favour, and healing into your life. He spoke to the sea and the waves and there was peace. He will speak into your situations and you will have new experience of fulfilment. He spoke to the emptiness of a widow and she became an oil merchant, and her disgrace was turned to abundance. Get ready for a deluge of miracles.

His promises cover every aspect of your life – Spiritual, Physical, Emotional, Financial and Material. Zacchaeus was rich but he needed something money could not buy. He sought the attention of Jesus (Luke 19:2-8). Salvation entered his house, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the whole world visited him and his past was washed away. There will be salvation galore during the convention. It is the opportunity you have been waiting for in order to make peace with God. Hannah, the mother of Samuel, did not visit Shiloh in vain. She returned with her bundle of joy. You will be the next in the line. The woman with the issues of blood did not touch His garment in vain. Her issues were adequately dealt with. The man at the Pool of Bethesda was made whole of all his diseases. The incurable was healed and raised up to confront life with gusto.

Since it is God’s nature to give more than we need, the anointing that will operate during this Convention will take you to the level of “running over.”  That was the anointing that took the shepherd boy and made him a king and the progenitor of the King of kings. This anointing turned the son of a farmer to a great prophet and the father of kings. This anointing will touch individuals, organizations will be transformed and whole nations will rejoice.

As you participate in all the Plenary Session, Seminars and Bible Studies, prepare yourself for unprecedented breakthroughs and a new level of walking with God. Please remember to obey all Camp rules and be at the right place at the right time. Be in meditation and take time to reflect on the messages God sends to you through His ministers. You will not be disappointed that you attended this year’s Convention.

Pastor E A Adeboye, Daddy G O

The One who holds the whole world in His hand is more than able to meet all needs, and he is already waiting for you. He knows you by name because He calls the stars in their billions by name. he is here before you came. Concentrate on Him and let nothing divert your attention from Him. “They looked unto Him, and were lightened” (Psalm 34:5). Remember, this Jesus who is the All Sufficient One, is the same yesterday, and today, and forever.

You are welcome!

Pastor E. A. Adeboye

General Overseer
