THERE IS NO
GOD

Only a fool would say “There is no
God!” People like that are worthless; they are heartless and cruel and never do
right (Psalm 14:1 CEV).

A gentleman
said at one time, “I don’t believe in miracles. I believe in my hard work.” So,
he worked hard all his life and he was of course rewarded. He prospered
financially and was elevated in the society. He believed everything he needed
in life could only come through his hard work and categorized as lazy folks
those who looked forward to miracles.

Many years
later, he became very sick and the doctors diagnosed the problem to be cancer.
He spent everything he had just to keep alive through chemotherapy and several
others treatment administered to him in the hospitals he visited around the
world. He sold everything he had, but his health still worsened. Finally…

THE HOLY
SPIRIT ADDS BEAUTY AND COLOUR TO OUR LIVES

His Spirit made the heavens
beautiful….(Job 36:13 TNLT)

Have you
ever met someone whose life was “Colourless”? By it I mean things were just
dull and stale and there was nothing inspiring about the person. Such people
are always seeking fulfilment in all the wrong places, but it eludes them.
That’s a sign that such folks have not yielded to the ministry of the Holy
Spirit.

When the
Holy Spirit comes to live in you, He brings colour and beauty into your life!
There will be freshness about your life every single day that can’t be ignored.
If He can only find a way to express Himself in you, your life will be full of
beauty, glory and grace.

When you
study the account of creation in the Bible, you’ll discover that the earth was
a chaotic mass, covered in…

GOD ENJOYS
MAKING THINGS

Why did God
create the world?

God created
the world and everything in it because He enjoys making things, and He wants to
be with us-His People!

He created
the earth and water and skies out of nothing.

God is so
powerful that He simply said the words to make it all appear.

God created
people because He wanted to have Friends-men, women, boys, and girls-with whom
He could share His love in fellowship!

He created
the world, for them to live in and enjoy. You are also a part of God’s
wonderful creation.

Don’t forget
to thank God for the world you live in, and for His love for you!

May Our God The Almighty prosper
Nigeria and Israel and defend us from all our enemies in Jesus Christ Name,
Amen!

CHRIST JESUS
CAN SET YOU FREE

“Turn [me] back to You, O LORD, and
[I[ will be restored……” Lamentation 5:21 NKJV

Any habit
you cannot break, or that you refuse to break, is a habit that has the power to
break you. Are you dealing with appetites that are out of control? Do you
struggle with compulsion that bring moments of pleasure followed by days of
remorse? Do you go through periods of abstinence, only to be followed by
seasons of indulgence that leave you defeated and condemned? Christ can set you
free! The Bible says, “God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and
power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the
devil…..” (Acts 10:38 NKJV).

It’s not
what you go through in life that messes you up; it’s what you keep going back
to! Are you tired of saying, “I’m…

THE LINK BETWEEN YOUR PROSPERITY AND YOUR DELIVERANCE

A dear friend of mine, who is a minster of God, once shared
the testimony of how his daughter got sick and wouldn’t get well even after
series of intense prayers. The doctors couldn’t diagnose what was wrong with
the little girl. Her lips became black and everyone who saw her wondered what
kind of sickness she was suffering from. Every attempt at getting the child
well just didn’t work. Then he opened his wardrobe and packed out all his suits
which were about thirty and took them to church, and gave them as an offering.
After a few days of giving that offering, his daughter was restored back to
health!

The Bible says, “A rich man can buy his way out of
threatened death by paying a ransom….” (Proverbs 13:8 AMP). You see, the things
God has given you aren’t…

I WISH ABOVE ALL THINGS THAT YOU MAY PROSPER AND BE IN
HEALTH, EVEN AS YOUR SOUL PROSPERS

Beloved, I wish above
all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul
prospereth (3 John vs. 2).

This scripture reveals God’s desire for every one of His
children: He’s interested in our financial and physical well-being! However,
the degree of financial and physical prosperity we enjoy is determined by the
degree of prosperity in our souls.

You see, your soul prospers as you receive the Word of God
and lay it up in your heart, as you fix your gaze on God and set aside every
weight of sin that has beset you. God gave Joshua the key to God’s kind of
prosperity in Joshua 1:8; “This book of
the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt mediate therein day

WHEN IS JESUS COMING BACK

I wonder, when is our Saviour coming back?

Jesus promised His disciples and us that He would return to
earth some day. When will that be? “[Such things] are not for you to know”,
Jesus said.

And He said unto them, it is not for you to know the times
and the seasons, which the Father hath put in His own power (Acts 1:7).

Although God didn’t say exactly when Christ will return, He
told us to be ready.

The Bible says we should be on our guard: “Therefore let us
not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober” (1 Thessalonians 5:6).
This means living the way Jesus wants us to, using our time wisely, and telling
others about God’s Good News.

Rather than be concerned with when Jesus will return, we
should always live as though…

PRAY WITHOUT CEASING

1 Thessalonians 5:17

Put pressure on the devil!

Prayer isn’t voluntary to the child of God; it’s a
compulsory spiritual activity. We discover many times from the scriptures how
the Lord Jesus Christ separated Himself from the people to pray. He also used
several parables to teach the people,
“……..that men ought always to pray, and not to faint” (Luke 18:1).
Throughout the scriptures, much emphasis was placed on the place of prayer in
the life of a Christian.

Every time you spend time to pray, you’re actually putting
pressure on the devil. Too often, many wait until the pressure comes to them
before they pray. I discover that the reason some Christians go through
terrible ordeals in their lives is that they don’t set themselves to pray early
enough. You don’t have to wait until the devil meets you on your dinner…

JUST WORSHIP GOD

Then Jonah prayed unto
The Lord his God out of the fish’s belly (Jonah 2:1)

This is beautiful! Right in the midst of trouble Jonah still
prayed unto The Lord; he forgot about his situation and fully turned his
attention to God. When you study the content of his prayer in Jonah 2:2-9,
you’ll discover that he wasn’t praying the “give me” prayer but a prayer of
worship and thanksgiving (Jonah 2:9). The next thing that happened is simply
marvellous; “And The Lord spake unto the
fish, and it vomited out Jonah upon the dry land” (Jonah 2:10). What a
mighty deliverance!

Deliverance comes when you worship God in the midst of your
trouble. Blind Bartimaeus didn’t say, “My eyes, my eyes”, rather he cried out, “…….Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on
me” (Mark 10:47); he worshipped Him. The Lord Jesus didn’t say a…

IN
EVERYTHING GIVE THANKS

In everything give thanks: for this
is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you (1 Thessalonians 5:18)

God wants
you to live a life of thanksgiving everyday; He wants you to cultivate a
mentality of gratitude regardless of your situation. Someone may ask, “Am I supposed
to give thanks for challenges and problems” The Scripture didn’t say we should give
thank for all situations; it says we
should give thanks in all
situations.  In other words, your life
should be full of thanksgiving no matter the situation. The Bible tells us that
we know that all things work together for good to them who love God (Romans
8:28). Therefore, it doesn’t matter what happens in your life or around you,
give thanks to God, for He has given you the victory already!

No matter
what you face in this life, God expects you…

WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

If you keep quiet at a
time like this, help will come from heaven to the Jews, and they be saved, but
you will die and your father’s family will come to an end. Yet who knows –
maybe it was for a time like this that you were made queen! (Esther 4:14)

Some people believe the only way they can be heard is by
being restive and protecting violently in public. This is wrong! We have to
learn the value, precipitation, and process of non-violent protests. God has
given us power to effect any change we desire (Acts 1:80), but we have to know
how to wisely present our cases before those in positions of authority to get
the desired results.

Sometime ago, a certain musicians gathered world leaders
together to make a decision. He wasn’t a president; he wasn’t even…

THROUGH FAITH, WE UNDERSTAND THAT THE WORLDS WERE FRAMED BY
THE WORD OF GOD

And he said unto them,
cast the net on the right side of the boat, and ye shall find. They cast
therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fish
(John 21:6)

On a certain occasion, after His resurrection, Our Lord
Jesus appeared to His disciples as they were rounding off an unsuccessful
fishing expedition. The disciples had toiled all night at sea and caught
nothing. When Jesus appeared to them in the morning, He asked if they caught
anything, and they reply was negative. Jesus then said to them, “Cast the net on the right side of the ship
and you shall find” (John 21:6). The Bible says, “…they threw the net out and could not pull it back in, because they had
caught so many fish” (John 21:6…

EXERCISE YOUR FREEDOM OF THOUGHT, CONSCIENCE AND FAITH!

And he began to speak
boldly in the synagogue: whom when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took
him unto them, and expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly (Acts
18:26).

As a believer in Christ Jesus you have a right to boldly
declare your faith at every given opportunity without reservations. You must
never be shy or intimidated to publicly proclaim the Name of Jesus Christ.

On October 1^st for example, the country’s
Independence Day anniversary was celebrated in various public places across the
country. At the different venues, they probably had religious men come forward
to pray for the country. But when a Christian minister is invited to pray at
such events, it’s an opportunity for him to testify of Christ to his state and
indeed the whole nation by praying in the Name of Jesus…

FIGHT FOR WHAT IS RIGHT!

Learn to do right!
Seek justice, relieve the oppressed, and correct the oppressor. Defend the
fatherless, plead for the widow (Isaiah 1:17 AMP).

As a country, we’ve been very fortunate to have achieved
many things on a platter of gold. Our independence from colonial masters for
example, was attained on a relatively peaceful note, unlike some nations that
had to fight to gain theirs. For this reason, not many in our country know what
it means to fight for a cause.

Fighting here doesn’t connote the hostile meeting of
opposing forces. Rather, it more aptly refers to the continuous, vigorous, and
obtrusive exertion of an individual or group to gain an end or engage in a
crusade for a certain cause or person. As a nation, we need to learn to fight
for what’s right! Some are fighting but are unwittingly engaged in the…

MAKE AN IMPACT IN YOUR WORLD TODAY (NATION BUILDING)

So David prevailed
over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistine,
and slew him, but there was no sword in the hand of David. Therefore David ran,
and stood upon the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the
sheath therefore, and slew him, and cut off his head therewith. And when the
Philistine saw their champion was dead, they fled (! Samuel 17:50-51).

Nation-building, national progress and infrastructural
development is not a task for the government alone, but our collective
responsibility. We all are to make our impact felt in our respective spheres of
contact. It may be in your community, place of work, city or nation at large;
look out for a need, and reach out to meet that need.

Imagine if David had joined the rest of…

AND THE LIGHT SHINES IN THE DARKNESS, AND THE DARKNESS
COMPREHENDED IT NOT (John 1:5)

Make A Choice For Change!

In our country today, corruption is seen as the bane of our
national development and many would readily blame the government or those in
public office as being responsible for this situation. While not holding brief
for public office holders, it’s pertinent to note that every citizen is a
stakeholder in the national project and therefore has the responsibility to
stem corruption in his or her sphere of influence. All it takes is for you to
train yourself to think and act right.

It’s important to understand that when a nation is
corrupted, it isn’t just “the government” that’s corrupt, for the government
is only a picture or a reflection of the people. The government or government
officials for example aren’t the ones who vandalize or remove…

OUR FUTURE IS BRIGHT: FOR IN GOD’S PRESENCE THERE IS FULLNESS
OF JOY AND AT HIS RIGHT HAND THERE ARE PLEASURES FOREVERMORE.

Howbeit when He, the
Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for He shall not
speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak: and He
will shew you things to come (John 16:13)

As one who is born again, you don’t have to be anxious about
the future, for your future is bright. Jesus said “When The Holy Spirit, who is truth, come….He will tell you about the
future” (John 16:13 TLB). The man without the Holy Spirit is the one who
should be uncertain about his future. He’s like an airplane without a pilot, or
a ship without a captain, lost at sea, bobbing about in the water. He’s a
traveller, wandering aimlessly, with a…

GOD DELIGHTS IN OUR PRAYERS

The sacrifice of the
wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright is His
delight (Proverbs 15:8)

What makes the prayer of the righteous delightsome to God
isn’t just its content but the one who’s praying. You see, no father will be
happy to see his child go to a stranger to ask for money, food or clothing. It’s
the delight of every good parent to meet their children’s requests. Likewise,
it’s the delight of our Heavenly Father to answer us when we present our
request to Him through prayers. He doesn’t want us looking up to our spouse,
our businesses, or the government for our needs; He’s the One Who supplies all
our needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19).

It’s important, however, that we recognize that our requests
or the content…
