Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might.

Ephesians 6:10

Ephesians_6-10-1: Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. 11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil

There’s a popular singing competition television show today called The X Factor. The show gets its title from a term that’s used to denote a certain quality or qualities that cause a person to rise above the ordinary and become a star.

Years ago, I picked up a book at the bookstore entitled The X Factor: A Quest for Excellence written by George Plimpton. In it, the author surveyed athletes looking for that extra something in their lives that propels them to victory. He also looked at those who are successful in the business world, in politics, and…

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

2 Corinthians 12:9

2-Corinthians_12-9: And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me

I met with a young couple awhile back who shared a beautiful story of how Jesus had broken the power of addiction in their lives. This young man had recently come to Christ and was an alcoholic. He shared, “The moment I came to Jesus Christ, He took away my desire to drink instantly!”

When Jesus was living on earth, He delivered people from demonic spirits and powers…

Pope Francis is set to feature in a movie ‘Beyond the Sun’ which will make him officially the first Roman Catholic pope to play himself in a big screen production. The movie will be a family adventure story where children from different cultures emulate the apostles while searching for Christ in the world around them,according to AMBI Pictures,the makers of the film.

The idea for the film came from the Holy Father, who approached the filmmakers at AMBI Pictures, asking them to produce a movie that could effectively portray Gospel passages & parables to children

All proceeds from “Beyond the Sun” will go to El Almendro and Los Hogares de Cristo, charities in Argentina that provide support for at-risk children and young adults in need. AMBI pictures co-founder Andrea Iervolino said in a statement that working with the Holy Father will be a highlight of his career. “Our excitement and…

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.

Colossians 3:16

Colossians_3-16-3: Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. God Answers Prayers

I remember it like it was yesterday… moving our oldest child into his college dorm. It was such an emotional experience. Prior to that time I got some time to sit down with him and just talk about the future.

So I told him, “I want to give you a little word of counsel as your father because you’re going to be on your own; you’re going to be making choices separate from your parents now. And…

And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

Colossians 3:17

Colossians_3-23: And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men

The famous Christian author, Dr. Oswald Sanders, said that we are to be “supernaturally natural and naturally supernatural.” That is, in the spiritual realm of our lives, we are to be totally natural—not forcing it or faking it. And then in day-to-day life, we’re to be supernatural—completely transformed by the Spirit of God.

You see, a lot of people like to make the Christian life about living spiritually in certain contexts. They’ll go to church on Sunday, maybe attend a Bible study now and then, and they’re very good about playing the part. But if you take them outside of those contexts, they’re essentially no different than…

To the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all people, that by all means I might save some.

1 Corinthians 9:22

Matthew_1-21: And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins

Whatever it takes… whatever the methodology… and whatever the means, we need to be reaching out for Christ. There’s no reason Christians shouldn’t be connecting with our culture and reaching out in creative ways with the Gospel.

Think of creative ways you can invite others to experience Christ. Connect with your neighbors by inviting them over for a cookout, football games, etc. Meet other people at your kids’ schools or through social clubs. Don’t be reclusive, but make “Christ connections” that will impact eternity!

Make An Effort To Creatively Connect With Others Who Need To…

Seek the LORD and his strength; seek his presence continually!

1 Chronicles 16:11

2-Chronicles_7-14: If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land

Sometimes I encounter Christians who ask me, “Why should I pray? God already knows what He’s going to do, so doesn’t He already have the answer?” Well, I tell them that it’s in prayer that you discover what God wants to do. It’s in prayer that you determine God’s wisdom, God’s way, God’s plan, and God’s desires. It’s in prayer that you make yourself available to God.

I like to think of it like the photo plates that were used to develop pictures. That photo plate was taken into a dark room where the time exposure…

“She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.”

Matthew 1:21

Matthew_1-21: And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins

It’s hard to imagine what it was like for Jesus to live under the shadow of the cross every day of His life. Even as a lad in Joseph’s carpenter shop, nailing those nails into a piece of lumber, He must’ve thought about the day when those soldiers would drive the nails in His hands and in His feet.

One of my favourite pictures of Jesus portrays Christ as a toddler. It’s the end of the day. He’s playing next to His father, Joseph, in his carpentry shop and the sun is setting. And as Jesus is kneeling down handling some metal spikes…

For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.

Ephesians 2:8-9

Ephesians_2-8: For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

Isn’t it funny how there are basically two kinds of religions in the world? There are those religions of works, which are false religions. And then there is religion by faith, which is true religion. Those are the only two categories: works-based religion and faith-based religion.

Now, a religion of works says do. It tells you that if you accomplish XYZ in your life, you’ve done well. If you haven’t, then you’ve done badly. That’s how works-based religion determines the success of the follower.

But the faith-based religion, the religion of Christ (which is not…

Matthew_6-20: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:

Sing The Wonderous Love Of Jesus
Sing His Mercy And His Grace
In The Mansions, Bright And Blessed
He’ll Prepare For Us A Place.

When We All Get To Heaven
What A Day Of Rejoicing That Will Be!
When We All See Jesus
We’ll Sing And Shout

While We Walk The Pilgrim Pathway
Clouds Will Overspread The Sky
But When Traveling Days Are Over
Not A Shadow Not A Sigh.

Let Us Then Be True And Faithful
Trusting, Serving Everyday
Just One Glimpse Of Him In Glory
Will The Toils Of Life Repay.

Onward To The Prize Before Us
Soon His Beauty We’ll Behold
Soon The Pearly Gates Will Open
We Shall Tread The Streets Of Gold.
Amen!

Matthew_6-20: But lay up for yourselves treasures…

Isaiah_54-17: No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD

Father, I thank You for the provision of deliverance through the blood of Jesus.

Any verbal or written covenant made with any evil spirit on my and my children’s behalf, be cancelled now by the blood of Jesus.

Every agreement I and my children have consciously or unconsciously made to the devil, be cancelled by the blood of Jesus.

Every handwriting and ordinances against my life and my children’s lives be cancelled by the blood of Jesus.

Every source of evil flow into my and my children’s lives, DIE, in the name of Jesus.

Every arrow of failure at the edge of breakthroughs, GO BACK to your sender…

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

Thy Life Was Given For Me.

Thy Blood, O Lord, Was Shed
That I Might Ransomed Be,
And Quickened From The Dead.
Thy Life Was Given For Me:
What Have I Given For Thee?

Long Years Were Spent For Me
In Weariness And Woe,
That Through Eternity
Thy Glory I Might Know.
Long Years Were Spent For Me:
Have I Spent One For Thee?

Thy Father’s Home Of Light,
Thy Rainbow-Circled Throne,
Were Left For Earthly Night
For Wanderings Sad And Lone,
Yea, All, Was Left For Me
Have I Left Aught For Thee?

Thou, Lord, Hast Borne For Me
More Than My Tongue Can Tell
Of Bitterest Agony,
To Rescue Me From Hell.
Thou Sufferedst All For Me:
What Have I Borne For Thee?

And Thou Hast Brought To Me,
Down From Thy Home…

PROPHESIES FOR 2016 by Dr. Chris Okafor (Dec. 31, 2015)

Dr. Chris Okafor, the General Overseer of the Mountain of Liberation and Miracles Ministries, a.k.a Liberation City

1. A more deadly sexually transmitted disease worse than HIV AIDS has been released from the kingdom of darkness. We need to be very prayerful and careful.
2. I see more Disasters taking place this year. But God will preserve His children.
3. America and Europe must pray fervently in this year.
   I see the rise of religious fundamentalism in Europe, and serious crisis with the US elections. If care is not taken, there may not be an election in America. I see Obama suddenly changing his mind to run for 3rd term, sparking off serious crisis. They must pray to avert all these.
4. Nigeria must pray for a former military head of state. Seems like the end of the road.
5. I see a calendar representing…

Thank You Jesus

“Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

Matthew 28:19-20

Matthew_28-19-3: Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost

Wartime Mentality!

Time spent fellowshipping with others should equip and empower you to do battle in daily life. Yet so many just go home from church, keep to themselves, and never obey the marching orders of our Commander in Chief who said to every Christian, “Go… and make disciples of all nations.”

The Christian life is not to be lived in a sanctuary, separated from risk and danger. No, every believer must answer the call…

John_15-20: Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.

Memorise

You who are happy, be happy while you are young, and let your heart give you joy in the days of your youth. Follow the ways of your heart and whatever your eyes see, but know that for all these things God will bring you into judgement.

Ecclesiastes 11:9.

MESSAGE

A call to remember usually comes with a warning and should be done urgently. Ecclesiastes 12:1 has ‘now’ next to ‘remember’ which means, there should be no dilly–dally but done straightaway. Abigail in 1st Samuel 25:18 knew this and saved her family and herself from being destroyed by quickly taking action. David quickly killed Goliath in 1st Samuel 17:48-51. Absalom also…

1-Corinthians_2-9: But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him

More Love To Thee, O Christ
More Love To Thee!
Hear Thou The Prayer I Make
On Bended Knee;
This Is My Earnest Plea:
More Love, 0 Christ, To Thee,
More Love To Thee,
More Love To Thee!

Once Earthly Joy I Craved,
Sought Peace And Rest;
Now Thee Alone I Seek,
Give What Is Best;
This All My Prayer Shall Be;
More Love, O Christ, To Thee,
More Love To Thee,
More Love To Thee!

Then Shall My Latest Breath
Whisper Thy Praise;
This Be The Parting Cry
My Heart Shall Raise;
This Still Its Prayer Shall Be;
More Love, 0 Christ, To Thee,
More Love To Thee,
More Love To Thee!
Amen!

James_1-12-1: Blessed is the…

John_11-25: Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live

All To Jesus I Surrender
All To Him I Freely Give;
I Will Ever Love And Trust Him,
In His Presence Daily Live.

I Surrender All,
I Surrender All;
All To Thee,
My Blessed Saviour,
I Surrender All.

All To Jesus I Surrender,
Humbly At His Feet I Bow;
Worldly Pleasures All Forsaken,
Take Me, Jesus, Take Me Now.

All To Jesus I Surrender, Lord,
Lord I Give Myself To Thee;
Fill Me With Thy Love And Power,
Let Thy Blessing Fall On Me.

All To Jesus I Surrender,
Now I Feel The Sacred Flame;
O The Joy Of Full Salvation!
Glory, Glory To His Name!
Amen!

Philippians_3-10: All I want is to know Christ and to experience the power of his resurrection, to share…
