See the King in royal state, Riding on the clouds His chariot.

But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ

But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ

See the King in royal state,
Riding on the clouds His chariot,
To the he;wenly palace gate;
Hark, the choirs of angel voices
Joyful Hallelujahs sing,
And the portals high are lifted.
To receive, their heavenly King.

Who is tin that comes in glory,
With the trump of jubilee?
Lord of battles, God of armies,
He has gained the victory:
He who on the Cross did suffer,
He who from the grave arose,
He has vanquished sin and Satan,
He by death has spoiled His foes.

While He raised His hands in blessing,
He was parted from His friends,
While their eager eyes behold Him,
He upon the clouds ascends;
He who walked with God and pleased Him,
Preaching truth and doom to come,
He, our Enoch, is translated
To His everlasting home.

Now our heavenly Aaron enters,
With His blood within the veil;
Joshua now is come to Canaan,
And the kings before Him quail:
Now He plants the tribes of Israel
In their promised resting-place;
Now our great Elijah offers
Double portion of His grace.

Thou hast raised our human nature
In the clouds to God’s right hand,
There we sit in heavenly places,
There with Thee in glory stand;
Jesus reigns adored by angels;
Man with God is on the throne;
Mighty Lord in Thine ascension.
We by faith behold our own. Amen!

Greetings in Jesus name,

 

 

May this letter find you blessed in Christ. I am writing from West

Africa and it is a blessing getting to you in the other part of the

world. It is my prayer that you become a friend of me and the local

church here. I got your email when I searching online and got into the

web site and I know that it is God’s arrangement.

 

 

By His grace I am a Believer bought and washed by the Blood of Jesus

Christ. I am married with three children. I am a pastor of a small

local church non denominational or affiliated to anybody. The church

was founded in 2006 and now has about 30 members. I gave my life to

Christ in 1987 when I was still in the high school at Zaria. A campus

fellowship student by name Femi was my roommate at school and his life

of faithfulness unto Christ and his prayer and teaching me the Bible

led me to Christ. This Brother told me then that he sensed that God

was going to use me for His cause. I was never ready to hear that

because my dream or thought was never in the ministry but to finish my

studies and get a nice job. Five years after school and already

working I started having the stronger urge and sensing that God was

calling me but I kept on putting it off my heart because my job and

life was sweet to me and I felt I needed nothing else. One day a guest

speaker was ministering in our church and he singled me out in a crowd

of over a thousand and told me that God has called me to the ministry

and cannot hide. After he left I told my pastor that I have accepted

and my pastor and other elders of the church prayed with me. I

immediately joined and headed the evangelical outreach of the church

and I saw many coming to Christ in the outreach. I let go of my job in

2005 and returned to Edo my State. I joined a small local church and

was assisting the pastor as the second pastor. In January 13th 2007 a

pastor of a little church of about five families in my area walked up

to me telling me that he is leaving the state to his home state where

the Lord has asked him to go and start the work. He said he has been

praying for over a month that the Lord has asked him to tell me to

take over the little church he founded 2006. I have not had

relationship with this pastor before now so it amazed me. He asked me

to pray to ask the Lord. I did prayed and without wasting time I knew

the Lord ask me to hold that little church and that was how I became

the pastor of this church called Victory Chapel. The church is a

growing church and we meet at a temporary rented building. We are

earthly rich but rich in Christ, riches that will last for eternity.

 

 

2 Timothy 2:15 “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman

that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth”.

The reason why I am writing is to appeal for your assistance in the

area of a Study Bible which will be of help to me in my research and

study of the bible as well as lesson preparation as a pastor, and

bibles for our aged members. These items are very scarce here. We are

in need of 1 Dakes Annotated Reference Bible. It is a very good study Bible for

ministers of the gospel. Please help me for it. There are many in our

local church who do not have bibles and cannot afford to buy. I want

to specifically make a request for the elderly ones who cannot work

and earn money to buy for themselves. There are 12 of such very old

fathers and mothers in our church who read and understand English and

they are very devoted. Please on their behalf I request that you send

them 12 Bibles the very big letters which is the super giant print 18

point type would be preferable for them because of their sight. We

would also appreciate used bibles provided the pages are complete.

Bibles are needed in King James Version, English. Thank you for

considering this request. And as you help to meet this kingdom need

the Lord will bless you finance abundantly. If you send the bibles

through post office a registered postage the bibles will get to us

safely. I was told at the post office that EMS postage or post office

insured mail is safer and without charge. My home and postal address

is GPO 3971, Benin City, Edo State, Nigeria. Please write when you get

my mail. I do not have full access to internet but I can check at

least three times weekly. Ecclesiastes 11:1 “Cast thy bread upon the

waters: for thou shall find it after many days”

 

 

Continue to be obedient and the Lord will  honour you in His time.

Exodus 19:5, the Lord spoke to the children of Israel through Moses

saying: “Now therefore, if you will obey my voice indeed, and keep my

covenant, then you shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all

people: for all the earth is mine:…”

 

The Lord bless you and keep you in His perfect love.

 

In His Service,

P.s, Please pray for the persecuted Christians attacked by Boko Haram

Muslims in Nigeria.

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!

Keep Growing In The LORD

Keep Growing In The LORD

2 Corinthians 8:11

“Now you should finish what you started. Let the eagerness you showed in the beginning be matched now by your giving. Give in proportion to what you have.”

NKJV

Did you know that giving can be exciting? It’s like a competition to out give God. We give and God provides. We sow into our local church and God sows into our lives. His blessings may not always be financial, but they are always greater than what we expect. This shouldn’t surprise us as our God is a blessing God. He’s calling us to grow deeper with Him through giving of ourselves. Each day, it’s as if God is saying, “Keep growing.” Hearing that call, many have begun stepping out to serve others, share the Gospel, give to their church or spend more time in the Bible.

God wants to see you grow in joy, peace, patience and much more. He is opening the windows of heaven to bless those who are seeking Him. Are you ready to receive those blessings? Take action. Don’t just take notes or talk about it, step out and get blessed. Be obedient to what God has called us to do and watch your life change. You may have been asking God to help you in life with your relationships or finances, and today He is answering that prayer. He’s saying “Keep growing”. Serve, give, love and get ready for God to pour out His blessings in a major way.

Life Lesson: The Bible teaches that the more you give the more you receive.

Dear God,

I am ready to grow deeper in my relationship with You. I desire to take action in my life to be a blessing to others. Help me to live a generous life of love and service. Give me opportunities to walk this out each day this week. Strengthen me to keep growing! In Jesus’ name, Amen.

 

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!

If God could forgive the men who nailed His Son to the Cross, why do you think He won’t forgive you?

God’s Forgiveness

 

Forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

 

Matthew 6:12, NKJV

Jesus, the Lamb of God, God’s own Son, was sacrificed on the altar of a wooden Roman cross.

Normally, crucifixion victims cursed and screamed obscenities and even passed into unconsciousness from the initial pain. Jesus reacted in a stunningly different way – He prayed, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing” (Luke 23:34, NIV). Fifty days later when Peter preached at Pentecost, Jesus’ prayer was answered when some of the very men who crucified Him repented of their sins, placed their faith in Him, and were baptized in His Name!

If God could forgive the men who nailed His Son to the Cross, why do you think He won’t forgive you?

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!

Are you willing to seek God and turn away from your own selfish ways? God longs for us to be obedient and desires a deep relationship with us

Are you willing to seek God and turn away from your own selfish ways?  God longs for us to be obedient and desires a deep relationship with us

 

 

 

 

 

2 Chronicles 7:14

 

“if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.”

NKJV

In today’s society, it can be difficult to live a life that calls for us to be different. We excuse away bad behavior and submit to pressures that weigh on us – and we compromise. We try to do things our own way and resist doing things God’s way. Second Chronicles 7:14 says, If we seek Him humbly and turn from our wrongdoings we can have this intimate relationship with Him. If we disobey Him, our lives will be consumed with ruin (Zephaniah 1:1-6). God longs for us to be obedient and desires a deep relationship with us. While we cannot live a perfect life, we can set our heart and minds on God and seek Him.

Are you living on the fence? Have you compromised in your relationship with other Christians, in prayer or in time with Him and His Word? Are you willing to seek God and turn away from your own selfish ways? Friend, the day is drawing near when God will intervene in each of our lives. In our inability to offer Him anything, He still accepts you and me. God provides a way out through His Son, Jesus, as payment for our sins–for those who place their faith and trust in Jesus Christ.

What will you decide today? You can decide now to live for Him, sit on the fence or reject Him and spend eternity separated from Him. This is an act of your will and no one can make the decision for you. The time is now.

Dear Jesus,

Thank You for loving me. Thank You for the opportunity to examine my relationship with You. I have strayed, and I do not want to compromise my life anymore. I commit myself to You afresh. I admit that I am a sinner. I believe You died for my sins. I open the door of my heart and life to You. I receive You as my personal Lord and Savior. Right now, I ask for Your power to help me turn from my sins. Thank You for forgiving me and saving me. Help me to be a blessing to You and others with each day that You give to me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

 

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!

My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. John 10:27, NKJV


Good Shepherd

Good Shepherd (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.

John 10:27, NKJV

The Eastern shepherd of Jesus’ day raised his sheep primarily in the Judean uplands. The countryside was rocky, hilly, and creased with deep crevices and ravines. Patches of grass were sparse. So the shepherd had to establish a personal relationship with each sheep, nurturing its love and trust in order to lead it to where the path was the smoothest, the grass was the greenest, the water was the cleanest, and the nights were the safest. The shepherd always led the sheep. He knew their names, and when he called them, they recognized his voice and, followed him. When he stopped, the sheep huddled closely around him, pressing against his legs. Their personal relationship with him was based on his voice, which they knew and trusted.

The Bible describes our relationship with Jesus as being similar to the relationship between the Eastern shepherd and his sheep – a relationship based on the sound of His voice. And make no mistake about it, His voice is God‘s Word, the Holy Bible.

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!
