INSTRUMENTS OF WORSHIP

-
Genesis 1:27(NLT) So God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. One beautiful thing about instruments of worship is that they come alive when they are touched or blown into. Bringing forth their melody. This was how God created man: Genesis 2:7 Then the Lord God formed the man from the dust of the ground. He breathed the breath of life into the man’s nostrils, and the man became a living person. Yes, the touch and the breath. That is the way we bring forth melodies from instruments. Thus we can see that we are instruments for worship. Halleluyah Psalm 150:6 Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD. Are you fulfilling your purpose? Do you bring God glory? WE ARE GOD'S MASTERPIECE! If we know what privilege we have to be created by God, we will make the most of our lives. Ephesians 2:10(NLT) For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good thing...

IT IS WELL WITH OUR LAND

-
Psalms 125:3(NLT) The wicked will not rule the land of the godly, for then the godly might be tempted to do wrong. Never a better time than now to intensify prayer for our land. No matter where you desire to run to, it is always well to return to find peace and prosperity in your home country. Proverbs 29:2 When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn. It is even moreso when the leaders, are surrounded by liars, selfish bigots, money, power and relevance craving psychopaths! Yes, if there is crying, hunger, evil and bad reports then surely the evil ones have a say in the high places of the kingdom. Therefore, we must keep praying. That they wicked will not have their way in authority. People would say: "why must evil men get to the place of authority?". We must remember that it is a secular world and every sect has its say. However where are those of us who ought to keep watch, to stay awake while the process goes...

PRAY FOR OUR LEADERS

-
Deuteronomy 17:20 "that his heart may not be lifted above his brethren, that he may not turn aside from the commandment to the right hand or to the left, and that he may prolong his days in his kingdom, he and his children in the midst of Israel. There is a need to pray for those who lead and those who would lead us. The bible says: Romans 13:1&2 Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves. We should note that God appoints individuals and not a government system. He appoints individuals that occupy a particular position of authority and they would all account to Him. The children of Israel had God as their king. What a great privilege, but when they saw the King of the Ammonites they wanted a king for themselves. 1Samuel 12:12  "And when you s...

HONOUR YOUR PARENTS

-
Ephesians 6:1-3 Children, obey your parents because you belong to the Lord, for this is the right thing to do. “Honor your father and mother.” This is the first commandment with a promise: If you honor your father and mother, “things will go well for you, and you will have a long life on the earth.” How happy are those who still have parents to seek advice from. Good parents are a blessing to any young one, yet still even when you have grown older they remain a sweet aura to you. Good parents who have done good work on their children are blessed to have their children as their advisors in their older years. ". . . you reap what you sow". God is interested in families and He respects the authority of parents. No spiritual leader is wise to ask any child to dishonour their parents. It is so important to God that He attaches a long life to it! Exodus 20:12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee. The wise man t...

LET US STAY HERE

-
1Thessalonians 5:19 Quench not the Spirit. There are those times, those moments when you experience God's presence, so overwhelming that you just don't want it to end. You feel so captivated like Peter at the transfiguration and say: Matthew 17:4 Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. Those kinds of explosive experiences could come when you have personal worship, a special group programme or encounter a great anointing or anointed one. We do good to treasure those moments, however they are not to be idolized but be the prompt for a step ahead, a growth. For we still wear this perishable body, yes, however we must know how to connect with the divine. We must remember that we have the Holy Spirit indwelling in us: Romans 8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not ...

LEAD AND BE LED ARIGHT

-
John 16:13 "However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come. Who is leading you and who are you leading? Are we being led rightly and are we leading others rightly? When Jesus said that those born of the flesh are flesh and those born of the Spirit are spirit. He spoke of the kind of life we would live day after day. It is a hard thing to be led by those who do not have the Spirit. The same way it is great to have a gifted, talented and intelligent boss who knows how to make decisions, every leader must know what is to be done at each point in time. If God is leading, a lot of errors could be avoided. How difficult it is to be led by those who are moved by their feelings or the atmosphere of the moment. Those under them tend to suffer. Let us take a look at Saul: 1Samuel 14:24, 27 & 29 And the men of Israel were distressed that...

TRUST IN THE LORD

-
John 15:4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. Christ did not call us besides Himself, He saved us not to be left on our own but that we should be empowered by Him. To draw from His own life source. The Heavenly Father! John 7:38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. Yes we become channels by which God's life force flows. Not mere containers, cause we will be exhausted, yes we channel out, thus we keep being fed. Halleluyah! It is condemnation for those who refuse to put their trust in God. For condemnation is as a result of rejection. IF YOU REJECT HIM HE REJECTS YOU TOO. John 15:6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast [them] into the fire, and they are burned. 1Samuel 15:23 For rebellion [is as] the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness [is as] iniquity...
