As a New York skyscraper went up, hundreds paused daily to glance up at it. One day they watched a ponderous metal beam go up to take its place in the steel skeleton. As the girder came near, a workman leaned out from the sixteenth floor to seize it. The spectators gasped as he lost his balance and fell. Desperately, he clutched the girder’s end with arms and legs.

The ground crew stopped the hoisting engine, but the man’s weight at one end began to tilt the beam to a vertical position, which…

Pastor E A Adeboye, Daddy G O, RCCG

Message

One commandment that God gave to the children of Israel in the wilderness, which is still very relevant to us today, is the commandment not to steal (Exodus 20:15). Stealing can occur physically, in the realm of the soul and spiritually. Physical stealing can further be classified as stealing from man and stealing from God (Malachi 3:8)…

Luke 18:1

Communication is probably one of the most important activities in life. There are different kinds of communication. We shall however, discuss the communication between man and GOD, which is established through prayer. In Luke 18, the LORD Jesus taught on the importance of prayer. Man is a spirit and his needs are essentially spiritual. This is why he always craves for that spiritual contact with God, who is described in Hebrews 12:9 as “The…

Philippians 4:15-19:

15 Now ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but ye only.

16 For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity.

17 Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.

18 But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God.

19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

Beloved, as a child of God you have to know this God for yourself because revelation will place you above your enemies. Job said to his detractors I know what you know you are not superior to me (Job 13:2). That means that when your enemy knows more than you do, he becomes superior to you. Before you throw your jab I already…

After David was anointed in 1 Samuel 16:13, he was supernaturally lifted and promoted in the valley of Ella where Saul and his army were fighting the Philistines and Goliath was troubling them.

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

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.

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…

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

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…

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

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!

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

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?

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…
