Hymn 732

Posted on March 1, 2025 by Prayer

1: A few more years shall roll,

A few more seasons come,

And we shall be with those that rest

Asleep within the tomb.

Then, O my Lord, prepare

My soul for that great day

Oh, wash me in thy precious blood,

And take my sins away.

2: A few more suns shall set,

O’er these dark hills of time;

And we shall be where suns are not,

A far serener clime.

Then, O my Lord, prepare

My soul for that great day;

Oh, wash me in thy precious blood,

And take my sins away.

3: A few more storms shall beat

On this wild rocky shore;

And we shall be where tempests cease,

And surges swell no more.

Then, O my Lord, prepare

My soul for that great day;

Oh, wash me in thy precious blood,

And take my sins away.

4: A few more struggles here,

A few more partings o’er;

A few more tolls, a few more tears,

And we shall weep no more.

Then, O my Lord, prepare

My soul for that great day;

Oh, wash me in thy precious blood,

And lake my sins away.

5: A few more sabbaths here,

Shall cheer. us on our way;

And we shall reach the endless rest,

The eternal sabbath.

Then, O my Lord, prepare

Oh, wash me in thy precious blood,

And take my sins away.

6: ‘Tis but a little while

And He shall come again,

Who died that we might live; who lives

That we with Him may reign.

Then, O my Lord, prepare

My soul for that great day;

Oh, wash me in thy precious blood,

And take my sins away.

Thank You Jesus,

Hymn 733: Days and moments quickly flying

Posted on February 28, 2025 by Prayer

1: Days and moments quickly flying

Speed us onward to the dead

Oh, how soon shall we be lying,

Each within his narrow bed!

2: Jesus, merciful Redeemer

Rouse dead souls to hear Thy voice

Wake, oh wake each idle dreamer

Now to make th’ eternal choice.

3: Mark we whither we are wending

Ponder how we soon must go

To inherit bliss un-ending

Or eternity of woe.

4: Life passeth soon death draweth near

Keep us, Lord till Thou appear

With Thee to live with Thee to die

With Thee to reign evermore.

5: As a shadow life is fleeting

As a vapour so it flies,

For the bygone years retreating

Pardon grant, and make us wise.

6: Wise that we our days may number

Strive and wrestle with our sin

Stay not in our work nor slumber

Till Thy holy rest we win.

7: Soon before the Judge all glorious

We with all the dead shall stand

Saviour, over death victorious

Place us then on Thy right hand.

8: Life passeth soon death draweth near

Keep us, Lord till Thou appear

With Thee to live with Thee to die

With Thee to reign evermore.

Hymn 734: Face to face with Christ my Saviour

Posted on February 27, 2025 by Prayer

1: Face to face with Christ my Saviour,

Face to face what will it be?

When with rapture I behold Him,

Jesus Christ who died for me.

Face to face I shall behold Him,

Far beyond the starry sky;

Face to face in all His glory,

I shall see Him by and by.

2: Only faintly now I see Him,

With the darkling veil between;

But a blessed day is coming,

When His glory shall be seen.

3: What rejoicing in His presence,

When are banished grief and pain;

When the crooked ways are straightened,

And the dark things shall be plain.

4: Face to face! O blissful moment!

Face to face – to see and know;

Face to face with my Redeemer,

Jesus Christ who loves me so.

Thank You Jesus,

Hymn 735

Posted on February 26, 2025 by Prayer

1: How bright these glorious spirits shine!

Whence all their white array?

How came they to the blissful seats

Of everlasting day?

2: Lo! These are they from sufferings great

Who came to realms of light;

And in the blood of Christ have washed

Those robes that shine so bright.

3: Now with triumphal palms they stand

Before the throne so high,

And serve the God they love amidst

The glories of the sky.

4: Hunger and thirst are felt no more,

Nor suns with scorching ray;

God is their Sun, whose cheering beams

Diffuse eternal day.

5: The Lamb which dwells amidst the throne,

Shall o’er them still preside,

Feed them with nourishment Divine,

And all their footsteps guide.

6: Midst pastures green He’ll lead His flock,

Where living streams appear;

And God the Lord from every eye

Shall wipe off every tear.

7: To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,

The God whom we adore,

Be glory, as it was, is now,

And shall be evermore.

1: I shall see the King

Where the an-gels sing,

In His glo-ry, I shall see the King,

And for-ev-er end-less prais-es sing;

‘Twas on Cal-va-ry Je-sus died for me;

I shall see the King someday.

2: In the land of song,

In the glo-ry- throng,

Where there ne-ver comes a night,

With my Lord once slain

I shall ev-er reign

In the glo-ry land of light.

3: I shall see the King,

All my tri- butes bring,

And shall look up-on His face;

Then my song shall be

How He ran-somed me,

And has kept me by His grace.

They with God all keep company:

With Jesus’ great Majesty,

They are clad in glorious robe.

“The Power of Forgiveness: A True Story of Liberating Grace”

Posted on November 28, 2024 by Prayer

@RealJerryEze

So Yesterday, I met a woman who beat up my late mum terribly. Anyone who knows me would know how much I adore my Mum. I was young and she was a young woman at the time and we lived in the same compound. She threw my mum on the floor and hit her so hard. That memory traumatized me for so long. She showed up to see me yesterday to seek for help and ask for prayers and mentioned how NSPPD had changed her life. It’s amazing how I extended help to her and she broke down in tears. She remembered what happened, I remembered too, most importantly, I HAD FORGIVEN. FORGIVENESS IS SO LIBERATING. I know it hurts, PLEASE FORGIVE!!! The Holy Spirit will help you. May God give you the grace to forgive right now in Jesus Christ name! Amen!!

Hymn 766

1: As the mourning bell is ringing

Calling upon the passing souls

Let everyone now ask himself

Are we ready if death now calls?

2: Now to forsake all earthly wealth

And straight depart the judgment throne

And the voice of the Judge to hear

Who will make known my way to go.

3: Will I love it, if He should say

Get thee away from me thou cursed,

Into everlasting furnace

Prepar’d for satan and his hosts.

4: O Lord my Saviour, now save me

I put all my trust upon Thee

Teach me to see perdition way

Teach me to live ever with Thee.

Praising the Lord for All His Benefits

Posted on November 6, 2024 by Prayer

TEXT: Psalm 103: 1-18(NKJV)

103:1. [A Psalm] of David. Bless the LORD, O my soul; And all that is within me, [bless] His holy name!

103:2. Bless the LORD, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits:

103:3. Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases,

103:4. Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies,

103:5. Who satisfies your mouth with good [things,] [So that] your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

103:6. The LORD executes righteousness And justice for all who are oppressed.

103:7. He made known His ways to Moses, His acts to the children of Israel.

103:8. The LORD [is] merciful and gracious, Slow to anger, and abounding in mercy.

103:9. He will not always strive [with us,] Nor will He keep [His anger] forever.

103:10. He has not dealt with us according to our sins, Nor punished us according to our iniquities.

103:11. For as the heavens are high above the earth, [So] great is His mercy toward those who fear Him;

103:12. As far as the east is from the west, [So] far has He removed our transgressions from us.

103:13. As a father pities [his] children, [So] the LORD pities those who fear Him.

103:14. For He knows our frame; He remembers that we [are] dust.

103:15. [As for] man, his days [are] like grass; As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.

103:16. For the wind passes over it, and it is gone, And its place remembers it no more.

103:17. But the mercy of the LORD [is] from everlasting to everlasting On those who fear Him, And His righteousness to children’s children,

103:18. To such as keep His covenant, And to those who remember His commandments to do them.

The Psalmist praises God for His personal blessings – forgiving our iniquities, healing our diseases, redeeming us from destruction, showing mercy, renewing our youth like the eagle’s, etc. (Psalm 103:1-5). The Psalmist praises God for His forgiving love-merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in mercy, etc. It also praises God for His eternal love -the mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear Him (Psalm 103:15-18). Nobody can count all we benefit from the Lord. It includes keeping us alive on a daily basis, protecting us on our going out and coming in, providing our daily needs beyond the effort we make, blessing us with the fruit of the womb, granting us sound health, shielding us from all dangers that lurk around us as well as prospering our handiwork and children. It must be for all these and more that the Psalmist asked in Psalm 116:12,”What shall I render to the Lord for all His benefits toward me.” Of course, the answer is ‘nothing’ than to give Him more praise. Please don’t take God’s blessings for granted or a result of your personal efforts.

Prayer:

“Blessed be the Lord, who daily loads us with benefits, the God of our salvation- Psalm 68:19.

𝕋𝕙𝕖 𝕄𝔼𝕊𝕊𝔸𝔾𝔼:

Dealing with the root of bitterness is so important that it cannot be overemphasised. At times, you may not necessarily be the recipient but the main actor.

Jesus warned Peter to be careful of temptation from satan (Luke 22:31-34). Rather than pay attention and pray it out, his overconfidence would not allow him until he actually fell for it (Luke 22:57-58, 6061). The Bible records in verse 62, “And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.”

Yes, Peter felt really bad to have betrayed his Master’s love in a trifling moment, but he did not allow that to halt his ministerial destiny. He refused to entertain bitterness; rather, he forgave himself and moved on. Jesus, our greatest example of love, also did not hold Peter’s action against him since He had earlier forewarned him. Little wonder, when Jesus came back after His resurrection, He literally handed over the work of ministry to Peter (John 21:15-19) and he joyfully took up the challenge.

Jesus did not give up on Peter, neither did Peter give up on himself. By the time we saw Peter again in Acts of the Apostles, he had become a Spirit-filled, vibrant and fire-brand Apostle who often stood up boldly before the Jewish leaders to defend the Christian faith.

Beloved, what is that supposedly unpardonable sin you have committed, especially in time past, probably during the time of ignorance? Acts 17:30 says: “Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent.” Confess and repent of your sin(s) before your Maker, receive His forgiveness and endeavour to forgive yourself.

Yes, you shouldn’t have done it but you did! Nevertheless, let go of the bitterness against yourself or against anyone whatsoever. God has not given up on you, refuse to give up on yourself either. Exchange that bitterness with love today and you will be glad you did!

ℙℝ𝔸𝕐𝔼ℝ ℙ𝕆𝕀ℕ𝕋𝕊:

𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆

1. Every satanic contention for my destiny, be disappointed, in the name of Jesus.

2. Satanic agenda for my destiny, be terminated, in the name of Jesus.

3. Anything in my foundation working against my favour, be uprooted, in the name of Jesus.

𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆

4. I receive grace to forgive myself for my past mistakes, in the name of Jesus.

5. I refuse to be a candidate of error and mistake, in the name of Jesus.

6. My life will not disappoint God, in the name of Jesus.

7. The devil will not write the last chapter of my life, in the name of Jesus.

Forgiving Your Enemies.

Posted on April 4, 2016 by Prayer

Matthew_5-44: But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you

Jesus spent a great deal of time talking about the importance of forgiving others. He made it clear that forgiveness is to be a characteristic of his followers. So let’s explore what it means to forgive others, the benefits of forgiving and how to forgive.

What It Means To Forgive.

“Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: ‘It is mine to avenge; I will repay,’ says the Lord. (Romans 12:19)

To forgive means to not seek revenge on the one who has hurt you. It means letting go of the anger we harbor inside us and allowing God to deal with him or her as he, in His perfect wisdom, sees fit.

It doesn’t mean excusing a wrong or denying that it ever happened. It means we don’t allow ourselves to be consumed with anger towards the one who has done something to us. Instead of cursing the people who has wrong us, we pray for them. Here are three verses that reflect the attitude of the forgiving heart:

“Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you. (Matthew 5:44)

“Don’t repay evil for evil. Don’t retaliate when people say unkind things about you. Instead, pay them back with a blessing. That is what God wants you to do, and he will bless you for it.” (1 Peter 3:9)

“Never pay back evil for evil to anyone. Do things in such a way that everyone can see you are honourable Do your part to live in peace with everyone, as much as possible. Dear friends, never avenge yourselves. Leave that to God. For it is written, ‘I will take vengeance; I will repay those who deserve it,’ says the Lord. Instead, do what the Scriptures say: ‘If your enemies are hungry, feed them. If they are thirsty, give them something to drink, and they will be ashamed of what they have done to you’. Don’t let evil get the best of you, but conquer evil by doing good.” (Romans 12:17-21)

Why Forgive.

“And don’t sin by letting anger gain control over you. Don’t let the sun go down while you are still angry, for anger gives a mighty foothold to the Devil. Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, and slander, as well as all types of malicious behaviour” (Ephesians 4:26-27,31)

As the verses above tell us, anger gives Satan a foothold in our lives. Anger has a devastating effect on our relationship with God as well as with others. Over time we’ll take our anger out on those around us. It consumes us unless we deal with it.

Jesus passionately taught us to forgive others, to let go, to let him handle it. He wants us to be at peace and for that to happen anger must be replaced with forgiveness.

How To Forgive.

“Without Me you can do nothing.” (John 15:5)

“I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you.” (Matthew 5:44)

Tips To Help You Forgive.

Do not deny that you have been hurt. As we learned, forgiving is not denying.

Make a decision to forgive others (Luke 17:3-5)

Do not seek revenge or repay evil for evil. Let God handle it in His perfect way (1 Peter 3:9)

Ask Jesus to help you release the anger inside you (Ephesians 4:26-27,31)

Pray for a forgiving heart and read what the Bible says about the subject.

Forgiveness.

Posted on February 15, 2016 by Prayer

Luke_6-37: Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven

Text:

Matthew 6:14-15
14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:
15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Mark 11:25 NIV

And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.”

Matthew 18:21-35 New International Version (NIV)

The Parable of the Unmerciful Servant

21 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?”

22 Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.[a]

23 “Therefore, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants.

24 As he began the settlement, a man who owed him ten thousand bags of gold[b] was brought to him.

25 Since he was not able to pay, the master ordered that he and his wife and his children and all that he had be sold to repay the debt.

26 “At this the servant fell on his knees before him. ‘Be patient with me,’ he begged, ‘and I will pay back everything.’

27 The servant’s master took pity on him, canceled the debt and let him go.

28 “But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred silver coins.[c] He grabbed him and began to choke him. ‘Pay back what you owe me!’ he demanded.

29 “His fellow servant fell to his knees and begged him, ‘Be patient with me, and I will pay it back.’

30 “But he refused. Instead, he went off and had the man thrown into prison until he could pay the debt.

31 When the other servants saw what had happened, they were outraged and went and told their master everything that had happened.

32 “Then the master called the servant in. ‘You wicked servant,’ he said, ‘I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. 33 Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?’

34 In anger his master handed him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed.

35 “This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother or sister from your heart.”

Introduction:

God forgave man as a result of the death and the resurrection of Jesus Christ and He expects us to follow this good example.

Why do we need to forgive?

1. Without forgiveness there will be no answer to prayers.
Mark 11:26
But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.

2. So that the peace of God will abide with us
John 14:27
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

3. So that it shall be well with us
Isaiah 3:10
Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him: for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.

4. To have everlasting life
John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

5. To have joy in our lives
John 15: 9-11
“As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love. These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.

6. To communicate freely with God
Galatians 4:6 (New International Version)
Because you are his sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, “Abba, Father.”

1-John_1-9: If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness

Conclusion:

It is God’s will for us to forgive one another so as to receive forgiveness from Him. If you have made a vow not to forgive anybody who might have offended you, Please forgive such a person now because tomorrow may be too late.

Thank You Jesus!

How Shall I Love That Word
And Oft Repeat Before The Throne,
For Ever With The Lord. Amen!

TRACE YOUR WAY BACK TO GOD.

Posted on August 17, 2015 by Prayer

TRACE YOUR WAY BACK TO GOD

Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Acts_2-38: Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

INTRODUCTION

The Lord said to the Church in the book of Revelation 2:3-5 that they have left their first love despite all their activities in the Church. Where did you leave your first love for Christ? You need to retrace your way back to Him today.

Psalms_51-2: Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.

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

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

3. When you do not evangelise as before.
Mark 16:15:
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

4. When you find it easy to quit church meetings.
Hebrews 10:25:
Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

5. When you cannot deny yourself of food and water (i.e.fasting).
Matthew 17:21:
Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.
6. When you enjoy toying with sin.
James 1:15:
Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death.

Psalms_51-11: Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.

CONCLUSION

Psalms_51-12: Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.

The above points are danger signals to you that you need to trace your way back to God. Repent and go back to your first love.

Essence Of Forgiveness. Sermon By Pastor E A Adeboye.

Posted on June 5, 2015 by Prayer

Luke_6-37: Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven

Memorise:

And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.

Mark 11:25

Read: Mark 11:25-26

25 And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.

26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.

1-John_1-9: If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness

Message

The enmity between God and man, created by sin, can only be reversed through the forgiveness of God. Going by the righteous requirement of God’s law, no man can pay the high price demanded by God for the atonement of sins, but the divine mercy of God brought us forgiveness through the Blood of Jesus Christ (Ephesians 1:7). Without the power of forgiveness, there can be no atonement, no reconciliation and no salvation.

Just as God has extended His unconditional forgiveness to us, He expects us to extend the same to our neighbours. This is an area where the people of God have problems. We like to enjoy God’s benevolence, but we find it difficult to extend the same to others. The gravity of this negative attitude is found in the parable of Jesus about the unforgiving servant (Matthew 18:23-35). Although the king forgave this servant a debt he could not afford to pay, when his fellow servant who also owed him begged him to be patient with him, he refused. Rather, he cast this fellow servant into prison. This attitude made the king so angry that he handed him over to the tormentors and charged them to torment him until he was able to pay his debt. Of course he would not be able to pay; so he was effectively banished to a lifetime of torment. The key thing to note from this parable is what Jesus said in Matthew 18:35:

“So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.”

The virtue of forgiveness proceeds from the offended, and it is carried out by the offended also. There is nothing anyone can do to convince the offended to forgive, if he or she does not look beyond the offending party and choose to unconditionally forgive. There is every reason to be vengeful when you are offended, but when you cast your mind back to remember how you have been forgiven yourself; you will have no choice as a child of God but to forgive. Those who easily forgive others who offend them are likely to be favourites of God because they share the nature of God in the area of forgiveness. Their prayers are also more likely to be speedily answered than the prayers of those who are vengeful.

Action Point:

Look out for those who have offended you, declare and demonstrate to them that you have forgiven them.

May The Grace The Lord Jesus Christ, And The Love Of God, And The Fellowship Of The Holy Spirit Be With You All. Amen!

Processing Pains! Forgiveness

Posted on May 27, 2015 by Prayer

Luke_6-37: Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven

For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. Matthew 6:14

1-John_1-9: If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness

When past injustices have caused you pain, you often seek to bury them in the deep recesses of your mind. It’s not the way to handle things, however, and almost always when you bury things, it allows your pain from the past to translate into mistakes and suffering in the future. You become powerless against the strength of your inner turmoil and can lose control of the very feelings you’ve tried to hide.

What do you do to distract yourself from unresolved pain? There may be strong emotions that you don’t know how to process appropriately, so you simply try to stuff them down inside. Eventually these feelings are expressed in one way or another. Be honest about your past hurts, express your feelings, confront when necessary, and work through forgiveness, it’s probably the most important thing to learn to do.

May The Grace The Lord Jesus Christ, And The Love Of God, And The Fellowship Of The Holy Spirit Be With You All. Amen!

Multiplicity in Marriage! Differences In Marriage

Posted on May 19, 2015 by Prayer

Colossians_3-12: Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering

Put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; bearing with one another.

Colossians 3:12-13, NKJV

Ephesians_5-25: Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it

The differences between my husband and myself have been the basis for many fights. My husband likes everything in its place while I never even notice when things are a mess. He is very outgoing, able to recall people’s names easily. In contrast, I am almost a recluse and can’t even remember the faces of people I’ve met.

Ephesians_5-2-2: And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savour

One day, following weeks of tension and fighting triggered by these differences, we began to make a study of the gifts of the Holy Spirit. We recognized our own particular spiritual gifts, and they were totally opposite from each other. This led us to recognize other differences, acknowledge those differences by name, learn to accept them in each other, and then grow to appreciate them for the balance they give to our marriage relationship. I cannot adequately convey the blessing this has been, the peace that has resulted, and the love that has increased between us simply because after years of doing it “my way,” we finally followed the Creator’s wise directions for diversity in our marriage.
