YOU MUST STAND FIRM!


Psalm 125:1 declares, They that trust in the Lord are like Mount sion that cannot be shaken.” If you are a child of God you must be firm. Nothing can shake you. In his letter second letter to Thessalonians 2:l-3a, 14-17 St. Paul declares, “Let no one deceive you in any way. God has called you through our gospel, so that you may obtain the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. So then, brethren, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter. Now may our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal comfort and good hope through grace, comfort your hearts and establish them in every good work and word.” Child of God, do not allow anybody to deceive you or even intimidate you. As St. Paul rightly advised, Stand firm! Hold unto the truth. As you do so, the truth shall set you free and it shall be well with you in Jesus name – Amen!

You have a Choice!


There is freedom of worship, freedom of religion and freedom of association. In the book of Joshua 24:14-17 Joshua said to all the people, “If you be unwilling to serve the Lord, choose this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your fathers served in the region beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you dwell; but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” Child of God, do you know that you are a free being? Do you know that nobody has the right to force you to serve any god against your will? The best choice one can make in this life is to serve the Living God. As you serve the Living God your life will be secured and it shall be well with you in Jesus name – Amen!

You shall Reap Bountifully


When God created Man He wanted Man to be fruitful in all ramification. In the gospel of John 15:8 our Lord Jesus Christ told his followers, "By this my Father is glorified that you bear much fruit." In his second letter to the Corinthians 9:6b-10 St. Paul states the secret of fruitfulness - how we can reap bountifully. According to him, "He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully Each one must do as he has made up his mind, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver." Stinginess is the surest path to poverty; whereas generosity paves way to financial breakthrough. The more you sow in the Lord's vineyard the more you will reap abundantly. Through your generosity and fruitfulness God's name will be glorified and it shall be well with you in Jesus name - Amen!

Nobody can put you to death


There were so many attempts to put the prophet Jeremiah to death, especially by the priests and prophets. In Jeremiah 26:11-16, 24 when Jeremiah prophesied concerning the city, the priests and (his fellow) prophets said to the princes and to all the people, “This man deserves the sentence of death, because he has prophesied against this city, as you have heard with your own ears.”Instead of condemning the prophet Jeremiah, the princes and all the people said to the priests and the prophets, “This man does not deserve the sentence of death, for he has spoken to us in the name of the Lord our God.” That was how God delivered Jeremiah from the evil plot of his enemies. Child of God, I may not know those who are planning to destroy you. Even if they are priests or prophets, they will never succeed. God will surely raise people who will defend you. He will not allow the evil ones to put you to death; and it shall be well with you in Jesus name - Amen!

YOU ARE SAVED BY GRACE

Grace is unmerited favour. It is a free gift of God. Our God is a gracious God. He is slow to anger and rich in mercy. In his letter to th...
