    The Holy Spirit does not only empower for spiritual manifestation of the power of God; it does that and much more. It is not only visible in speaking in tongues, working of the miraculous, healing, teaching or prayer etc. It covers much more.

    Bezalel was the first man reported in the Bible to be filled with the Spirit of God. The result in his…[Read more]

    INTERCEDING KNEES: Many years ago, I went to see a good friend, and on getting close to the door of the house (they lived in a room apartment), I overheard his mum praying (on her knees), so I stayed outside to let her finish the prayer. Then I overheard her passionately praying for all her children one after the other in a long chain of prayer.…[Read more]

    An adventure with Jesus is the greatest of all life’s adventure. You get started with no clear knowledge of what is ahead but only assurance of His unfailing presence. Filled with both beautiful and not so pleasant surprises, lows and highs; but his comforting presence through it all. Can’t trade the world for it.

    DON’T FORGET: You’re entitled to get tired and weak, you’re entitled to get exhausted. You may have to rest, to go hibernate & restore…BUT you always have to come back & KEEP GOING…..Our models are not made of steel, they only keep choosing never to GIVE UP NO MATTER WHAT!

    Happy new year 2025!

    The best deals are always offered by God, because the terms of his contract always benefit us and He never breaks them.

    THOUGHT: Contentment is not pretending that things are fine when they are not. Rather, it’s an inner peace that comes from God. It’s an awareness that God is bigger than any problem, and assurance that He’s faithful to open the next phase of our lives at the due time while we appreciate and give our best at the current position; and as a friend…[Read more]

    *CHRISTIANITY” WITHOUT CHRIST DESCRIBES THE MOST DRAINING OF ALL HUMAN ACTIVITY*.

    If you want to be a Christian, be one! Let the life of Christ be your hallmark. The “Christian life” has become so degenerated because of many who claimed to be one, but their lives and conduct betray such. We have declined to a point where after professing your…[Read more]

    THOUGHT: Never allow your desire for the Best things of life to make you feel like an ungrateful child who wants too much. You’re God’s precious child, and nothing is too good for you to have…..And the good news is that our God isn’t a kill-joy! He is only against what could kill our joy and future peace.

    Just thinking about the depth of these Bible verses, describing the potency of the word of God in varying synonymous degrees:

    “For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.…[Read more]

    If He never came, what would be our HOPE? If He never died, what would be our ANCHOR? If He never resurrected, what what be the basis of our SALVATION? And if He never ascended, who would be our INTERCESSOR? Thanks, He did all these. HAPPY EASTER

    It’s a dangerous thing to only pray when there is a need for it! When at ease, pray, when times are tough, pray.
    The enemy have no rest time, they work round the clock. You shouldn’t be the victim of being caught unawares!

    ”Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought to pray and not lose heart,“
    ‭‭Luke‬ ‭18‬:‭1‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

    THOUGHT: God could sometimes delay intervention in our pressing cases just to allow more audience to view his power in display and bring us to greater Glory. Remember, d spirit of God only came on Samson to break d rope when he had more than 1,000 philistines around to kill with d jawbone of a donkey(Judges 15:13-15)….He waited all the way till…[Read more]

    THOUGHT: God’s eternal promises usually come at man’s lowest point of faith. Abram was promised the future when he was stricken in age without a child; David was carrying the covenant of the throne while running for his dear life in the wilderness……….Friend, no matter how low and bad your condition is today, let the infallible integrity of…[Read more]

    This hymn keeps ringing in my heart:

    MY SOUL IS SO HAPPY IN JESUS
    1 My soul is so happy in Jesus,
    For He is so precious to me;
    His voice it is music to hear it,
    His face it is heaven to see.

    Refrain:
    I am happy in Him,
    I am happy in Him;
    My soul with delight
    He fills day and night,
    For I am happy in Him.

    God does not just have a perfect plan, but more important is that he has a perfect timing to execute the perfect plan.
    You will arise and have compassion on Zion;
    For it is time to be gracious to her,
    For the appointed time has come. Ps 102:13

    The farther I distance myself from the Good Shepherd, the closer and more accessible I become to the enemy of my soul.

    The lesser I spend time with His word and prayer, the more easier it’s for the accuser of the brethren to pollute my heart and spirit.

    Lord, help me to keep close….

    • Keep me deeper; deeper in love with you, Jesus hold me close in Your embrace. Keep me deeper Lord

    AND JUST LIKE THAT: A month just passed!!! This signifies that our Saviour’s return has just been reduced by 31 days!
    31 days gone, and you’re yet to tell someone- at least one person about Jesus.
    Hmm! What should I call you?

    When I gave my life to Jesus, it was painted as if rapture will happen the next day, but many years have gone, and here we are, still waiting!

    However the truth in this is “The day of Rapture has been reduced by those number of years”
    ….In the twinkling of an eye.. 1Cor 15:52.

    Get ready!
