THERE IS NO GOD!

-
1 Peter 1:8-9(NLT) You love him even though you have never seen him. Though you do not see him now, you trust him; and you rejoice with a glorious, inexpressible joy. The reward for trusting him will be the salvation of your souls. Great things are conceived not by what has been seen but by what has not been seen. High flyers, achievers and inventors are not those who walk by what they see but those who have not yet seen but believed. So it is with the Heavenly Father we have not physically seen Him but we believe, for He has displayed Himself with every of His creation. Romans 1:19-20 They know the truth about God because he has made it obvious to them. For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God. These things are not a coincidence, just the same way our conception and birth is not a coincidence. This sa...

ABOUT GRACE

-
Galatians 3:22 But the Scriptures declare that we are all prisoners of sin, so we receive God’s promise of freedom only by believing in Jesus Christ. Yes for it is by faith we are saved through grace. The grace of God.  Ephesians 2:8-9 God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. (we will read verse 10 later)  Where then, is the mix up? Romans 6:1-2,6-7,11-15 Well then, should we keep on sinning so that God can show us more and more of his wonderful grace? Of course not! Since we have died to sin, how can we continue to live in it? We know that our old sinful selves were crucified with Christ so that sin might lose its power in our lives. We are no longer slaves to sin. For when we died with Christ we were set free from the power of sin. So you also should consider yourselves to be dead to the power of sin and alive to God th...

ARE YOU USING YOUR GIFT?

-
1 Peter 4:10(NLT) God has given each of you a gift from his great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another. Yes, Spiritual gifts are given not for decoration, not for boasting or to be used to take advantage of another but to serve one another. There is no one who has received the new birth that is not endowed with God's gifts. None. Ephesians 4:8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men. The gifts remain useless to us until we release the same in blessing or edifying the brethren or leading those who are outside into the fold. No gift is useless, or small, every gift has its significance and when utilized by the power of the Holy Spirit can cause great exploits to God's kingdom on earth. 1 Corinthians 12:4-11(NLT) There are different kinds of spiritual gifts, but the same Spirit is the source of them all. There are different kinds of service, but we serve the same Lord. God works in diff...

WATCH YOUR ACTIONS

-
Ephesians 5:15 So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise.  If only we meditate properly on our actions instead of quickly being swagged by lust, emotions and selfishness, we would save ourselves from so many troubles. We quickly look for excuses or who to blame while we are the orchestra of our problems. We refuse to treat bad characters, evil habits, secret gossips, bad association etc. We live a lie and think everything would be okay. Sometimes, sorry cannot take care of it especially when we have not let go of those evil thoughts and associations, we only wait for another opportunity to do the wrong thing. Who are we fooling. Most of our troubles are self inflicted, we take steps and make decisions without thinking about the aftermath, then we cry when we face the outcome. However, trusting God and having His fear will save us so much trouble. Psalm 119:129(BBE); Your unchanging word is full of wonder; for this reason my soul keeps it. No mat...

REMEMBER HIS GOODNESS

-
Colossians 1:12-13 always thanking the Father. He has enabled you to share in the inheritance that belongs to his people, who live in the light. For he has rescued us from the kingdom of darkness and transferred us into the Kingdom of his dear Son, While we carry out our secular activities we could get carried away with the issues of life, challenges and responsibilities, there is the tendency to forget what the Heavenly Father has done for us. The redefining, rebirth and repositioning. 2Thessalonians 2:13 But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: Above all the issues in the world, the redemption of our soul is the most crucial. Once this is settled, other things fall into place. They now have meaning. We must remember who the Father has made us to be in His Son Jesus the Christ. We must continually stay grateful for this an...

TUNE IN

-
Galatians 5:16&17 But I say, Go on in the Spirit, and you will not come under the rule of the evil desires of the flesh.  For the flesh has desires against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; because these are opposite the one to the other; so that you may not do the things which you have a mind to do. We know that the life we live now on earth is legitimate because we have a body. Though this body is tuned to the flesh because of sin, during the new birth our spirit is renewed to walk in the righteousness which we have in Christ Jesus. Many have taken their thoughts, impulse and inner feelings to be the Spirit of God speaking. We must by constant study of the word and prayers tune ourselves to hear clearly what the Spirit is saying. We must get it right, the word of God must be rich in us to have enough vocabulary to communicate with the Spirit. We ought to stay tuned to the frequency. Many in previous years had a clearer communication with God's Spirit but as they k...

LET GO AND WORSHIP

-
1 Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. We are all trusting God for something either for ourselves or for someone else? Our duty is to commit it into His hands then begin to thank Him for it. We shouldn't let it become a worry so much that we forget all He has done for us. We should instead lay the worries aside and just acknowledge Him who made you see today, give Him praise, worship Him and give Him thanks. Most times we are trapped by lack of insight into the bigger picture, we could then get carried away and not understand God's wisdom working to keep us from situations that will cause us pain. Jesus said our worries would not solve the problem, our prayers, faith and thanksgiving would do it! Let's set all worries aside, that we may recognise Him who made all things and who controls all things. Revelation 7:12 saying: "Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom, thanksgiving and honor and power and might, be to our God forever and ever. Amen....
