Mark 2. Jesus Heals a Paralysed Man

(Show chapter frame)

1 And again he entered into Capernaum after some days; and it was noised that he was in the house. 2 And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive them, no, not so much as about the door: and he preached the word unto them. 3 And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four. 4 And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay. 5 When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee. 6 But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts, 7 Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only? 8 And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said unto them, Why reason ye these things in your hearts? 9 Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk? 10 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,) 11 I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house. 12 And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.

13 And he went forth again by the sea side; and all the multitude resorted unto him, and he taught them. 14 And as he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the receipt of custom, and said unto him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him. 15 And it came to pass, that, as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples: for there were many, and they followed him. 16 And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners? 17 When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

18 And the disciples of John and of the Pharisees used to fast: and they come and say unto him, Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not? 19 And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast. 20 But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days. 21 No man also seweth a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the new piece that filled it up taketh away from the old, and the rent is made worse. 22 And no man putteth new wine into old bottles: else the new wine doth burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled, and the bottles will be marred: but new wine must be put into new bottles. 23 And it came to pass, that he went through the corn fields on the sabbath day; and his disciples began, as they went, to pluck the ears of corn. 24 And the Pharisees said unto him, Behold, why do they on the sabbath day that which is not lawful? 25 And he said unto them, Have ye never read what David did, when he had need, and was an hungred, he, and they that were with him? 26 How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the showbread, which is not lawful to eat but for the priests, and gave also to them which were with him? 27 And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath: 28 Therefore the Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.

 

May GOD bless Nigeria, America and Israel and take care of us; May GOD 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!

And enjoy it ever there.

Who hast led them safe through all.

In the soul-cleansing blood of the Lamb?

Are your garments spotless? Are they white as

snow?

white!

Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?

Will your soul be ready for His presence bright,

And be washed in the blood of the Lamb?

And be washed in the blood of the Lamb;

There’s a fountain flowing for the soul unclean,

When
we rest in the Lord

 

 

 

 

 

 

Don’t
Sweat It, Rest!

Ruth
3:18

18Then
she said, “Sit still, my daughter, until you know how the matter will turn out;
for the man will not rest until he has concluded the matter this day.”

 

God
does not want you to “sweat”. Sweat here does not refer to your body’s
perspiration, but your self-reliance or self-effort. God does not want you to
believe that if you don’t do anything, nothing will happen. That may be true
for someone without God in his life, but it is not true for you because you
have God. And when He is in the picture, the God-factor changes everything!

 

When
you are resting in God, He works for you. In fact, when He works, you end up
with more. He is the one who is giving to you. It is not about you trying to
give to yourself.

 

This
was what happened to Ruth in the Old Testament. After laboring in the barley
fields from morning to evening, she was able to glean one ephah of barley (Ruth
2:17), which was equivalent to a 10-day supply of barley. Certainly, this
amount was a blessing to her.

 

But
when she rested at the feet of Boaz, her kinsman-redeemer, and did not labor,
she received six ephahs of barley (Ruth 3:15), which was equivalent to a 60-day
supply! When Ruth sought her own blessing, she obtained only one ephah. But
when she sought the blesser, she received much more.

 

Ruth’s
blessings did not stop there. While Ruth rested and sat still as her
mother-in-law Naomi had instructed, Boaz, who was the owner of the barley
field, went to work, initiating actions, executing them and speaking on Ruth’s
behalf. Right through it all, Ruth sat still and rested. Eventually, Boaz, the
barley man himself, married Ruth. (Ruth 4) That meant no more measured wealth
of six ephahs, but the yield of the whole barley field in total!

 

Boaz
is a picture of Jesus, our heavenly kinsman-redeemer. When we rest in the Lord,
He will not rest. He will work on our behalf. What do we do then? We just trust
in and enjoy His love for us.

 

Beloved,
stop striving and be at rest. If salvation, the greatest work, comes to us by
resting in Jesus’ finished work, how much more will all the other blessings?

 

 

 

 

 

 

May GOD bless Nigeria, America
and Israel and take care of us; May GOD 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!

 

May the grace the Lord Jesus
Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you
all. Amen!

GOD Is Able. The Redeemed Evangelical Mission

GOD Is Able. The Redeemed Evangelical Mission.

And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform. Romans 4:21

We all must realize that God is always able. He has the ability, He has the dynamic power. What He has promised, He is able to perform. Even if it was not there God can create it because His word cannot fall to the ground. Even when there is no one to speak for you God will put somebody in place, just to speak for your interest and on your behalf. Abraham was fully persuaded saying “It is not up to me, it is up to Him. For me, my hope is already lost. I didn’t say it, I didn’t initiate it, it was not my idea but God’s idea and He is God; if He is God, all things are possible with Him” When you function that way, the next verse is automatic. Romans 4:23 says “it was imputed unto him for righteousness

God was saying, Abraham, bring out your report because I am the final umpire, Abraham you have passed. God wants his children to be a demonstration of His kingdom to the world. If we obey His word, God shows us forth as signs and wonders on earth. That is why you must not function the way others function no! “The just shall live by faith”. The just shall live by the word of God because the word makes you into what God said and what God said pleases God.

Naturally when you come home with a good result to your parents, you make them happy. That is how God is saying my son, daughter, make me happy. I have already spoken about you. Dare you believe His word and leave the fulfilment to Him for He is more than able. I see you coming back with the ‘spoils’ of the battle, laughing at the devil. It is not up to you to do it, No! your part is to act in faith and obedience. God’s part is to fulfil. He is able to do all things. It doesn’t have to be the normal way. We are spiritual people, God still does the super-natural. The life of Jesus and His Apostles was filled with the supernatural. May God show up for you in every situation because He is able! Amen!!

Having my daily bath! Most especially Evening bath before going to bed!

Being an Asthmatic from Childhood, my parents did not allow me to take my daily bath, so I would not be exposed to cold.

Now I am an adult, healed of Asthma, to bath daily is now a Hercules task!

I wish I could be as normal as everyone around me, wake up, have your shower, come back in the evening, have your shower too!

Mark 2. Jesus Heals a Paralysed Man

 

 

 

1 And again he entered into Capernaum after some days; and it was noised that he was in the house. 2 And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive them, no, not so much as about the door: and he preached the word unto them. 3 And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was borne of four. 4 And when they could not come nigh unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay. 5 When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee. 6 But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts, 7 Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only? 8 And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said unto them, Why reason ye these things in your hearts? 9 Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk? 10 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (he saith to the sick of the palsy,) 11 I say unto thee, Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house. 12 And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it on this fashion.

RCCG Crossover Night Service “Preparing For A Year of Signs and Wonders” A Sermon by Pastor E.A. Adeboye. Daddy G O “Your 2013 will be better than 2012”- Pastor E A Adeboye

 

To experience signs and wonders in the year 2013, you must:

 

1)      Start praising and worshipping God more than ever before.

 

Psalm 18:1-3. In Psalm 89:1 David said “I will sing of the mercies of the LORD for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.” In 2013 those who learn to praise God can get ready for signs and wonders. You can pray , study God’s word and meditate on it quietly but it is impossible to praise God quietly. You cannot sing or testify of God’s goodness with your mouth closed. Occasionally some people say “God knows I’m grateful , He sees my heart” but this is not right. If you read through the book of revelation, there is nowhere the bible says “I see your heart”, it says “I know your works”. Praising God part of the works, it shows how grateful you are. Don’t wait for the pastor to tell you to praise God before you do, learn to praise God this new year!

 

2) Put God first.

 

In 1Kings 17:8-16, Elijah said to the widow to put Him first, she put God first and experienced signs and wonders. Proverbs 3:9-10 says “Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.” Don’t let anybody deceive you, God is not in need! God is so rich that the roads in His city are made of gold. Pay your tithe and watch Him open the windows of heaven upon of your life, honour Him with your first fruits so you can experience signs and wonders. Many people will borrow money to throw a banquet if the general overseer decides to come pay them a visit at home but they cannot borrow money to do things for God. The general overseer can pray for you but only God can answer that prayer, the general overseer can see some visions but God knows all about you, when you are in trouble the general overseer might be asleep but God never slumbers or sleep so learn to put God first this coming year.

 

3) Learn not to keep quiet, tell God your needs.

 

2Kings 2:19-22. In the coming year, don’t pretend to God, tell Him exactly how things are and He will help you. In 2Kings 4:1-7, the widow pretended all was well even though she was in debts, until she ran to Elisha for help nothing was done. When she cried for help, her problem was solved.

 

As you cry and pray to God in the coming year, make sure you are ready to obey. The widow’s problem wouldn’t have been solved if she decided to disobey the prophet.

 

You must witness, win souls, follow them up until they become established. John 15:16 says “Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you.”

 

4) Control your joy. Ask God and make your request to Him till your joy is full.

 

John 16:24 says . In the coming year, pray until your joy is full, hold on to God, don’t go looking for alternatives.

 

Pick a man of God and addict yourself to blessing him. When you addict yourself to blessing a true man of God, one day, the God of that pastor will bless you in return.

 

5) Control your weather.

 

1Kings 17:1 Elijah said “As the LORD God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word.” The power to control the weather belongs to the one who will spend time before God.

 

You can control the situation of things in your life, your spiritual weather, financial weather and physical weather if you put God in His rightful place. In the coming year, spend time before God. When you do that, He will renew your strength. Isaiah 40:31 says “But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.”

 

You gain more strength waiting on the Lord than taking vitamin pills.

 

It is one thing to enter into the new year, it is another thing to have a new beginning. There are many people who have moved from one year to another carrying the same problem, frustration and struggles. The man at the pool of Bethesda had seen 38 new years at the same spot with the same problem, he had no new beginning until he had an encounter with God (John 5:1-16). To experience a new beginning of joy, peace, progress, blessings, anointing, and closer work with God in the new year 2013, stop pretending to be a Christian, be born-again inside and outside. Surrender your life completely to God and be ready to obey His words completely.

 

 

 

 

 

May GOD bless Nigeria, America and Israel and take care of us; May GOD 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!

Finding Rest in God’s Promises

is a picture of Jesus, our heavenly kinsman-redeemer. When we rest in the Lord,
He will not rest. He will work on our behalf. What do we do then? We just trust
in and enjoy His love for us.

 

Beloved,
stop striving and be at rest. If salvation, the greatest work, comes to us by
resting in Jesus’ finished work, how much more will all the other blessings?

 

 

 

 

 

 

May GOD bless Nigeria, America
and Israel and take care of us; May GOD 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!

 

May the grace the Lord Jesus
Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you
all. Amen!

Who are your favorite artists?

My favorite of all times is Nelly Uzonna Edith Uchendu,  Late Nigeria Songstress.

“There’s something about her voice that gives me goose pimples, scares me and makes me cry.

And she sings about love! All her songs are about love, but they all move me to tears.

It is a pity she died before I could have an opportunity to meet her, to ask her “What is it about her songs that moves me to tears all the time?”

OTHERS ARE:

1). Tina Onwudiwe

2). Onyeka Onwenu

3). Uche Ibeto

Proverbs 18. The Name of the LORD is a strong tower.

Proverbs 18. The Name of the LORD is a strong tower.

(Show chapter frame)

1 Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom.

2 A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.

3 When the wicked cometh, then cometh also contempt, and with ignominy reproach.

4 The words of a man’s mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.

5 It is not good to accept the person of the wicked, to overthrow the righteous in judgment.

6 A fool’s lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes. 7 A fool’s mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.

8 The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.

9 He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster.

10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.

11 The rich man’s wealth is his strong city, and as an high wall in his own conceit.

12 Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility.

13 He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.

14 The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear?

15 The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.

16 A man’s gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.

17 He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him.

18 The lot causeth contentions to cease, and parteth between the mighty.

19 A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle.

20 A man’s belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled.

21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

22 Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD.

23 The poor useth entreaties; but the rich answereth roughly.

24 A man that hath friends must show himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.

May God bless Nigeria, America and Israel and take care of us; May God 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!

May the grace the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen!
