THE REAL THING

-

1 Kings 19:10,18

Elijah replied, “I have zealously served the Lord God Almighty. But the people of Israel have broken their covenant with you, torn down your altars, and killed every one of your prophets. I am the only one left, and now they are trying to kill me, too.”

Yet I will preserve 7,000 others in Israel who have never bowed down to Baal or kissed him!”


We live in the times when a lot of counterfeits, deceits and make believes, flood every part of our communities all in the name of the Lord. As the Lord brought numbers into the faith at the beginning of the mission of Christ's apostles so also rising alongside were counterfeits: (Matthew 12:24-30)


Matthew 24:10-12

And many will turn away from me and betray and hate each other.

And many false prophets will appear and will deceive many people.

Sin will be rampant everywhere, and the love of many will grow cold.


The above words of Christ is the situation all around the globe, we have motivational speakers, manipulators(witchcraft), sorcerers (fake and diabolic displays in the name of miracles), and one common denominator crowns them all the mad rush for money, fame and relevance.


This was the way Elijah saw the situation in his time:


" . . . I am the only one left . . ."


No! God's reply to Him ended with:


"  . . . I have preserved 7,000 others . . . "


There is always a reminant. So many true believers and ministers are yet ministering today.


Listen, there is always a warning before the falling away. Selah


From the very beginning Adam was warned about the forbidden fruit.


Cain was warned about sin croaching at his door!


The list goes on to even Judas being warned of his betrayal and it continues till today.


How many listen to the warnings and take action? How many hear the danger alarm and take flight?


Someone will ask, how do we know, what is the signal?


It is still the same old signal:


Hosea 4:1,4,6

Hear the word of the Lord, O people of Israel! 

The Lord has brought charges against you, saying: 

“There is no faithfulness, no kindness, no knowledge of God in your land.

“Don’t point your finger at someone else and try to pass the blame! 

My complaint, you priests, is with you.

My people are being destroyed because they don’t know me. 

Since you priests refuse to know me, I refuse to recognize you as my priests. 

Since you have forgotten the laws of your God, I will forget to bless your children.


Today every believer has been called into priesthood:


1 Peter 2:9-10

But you are not like that, for you are a chosen people. You are royal priests, a holy nation, God’s very own possession. As a result, you can show others the goodness of God, for he called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light.

“Once you had no identity as a people; now you are God’s people. 

Once you received no mercy; now you have received God’s mercy.”


NOW LISTEN ESPECIALLY YOU RELIGIOUS, ORTHODOX AND PENTECOSTAL FOLKS (I urge you respectfully). . .


Your salvation does not lie in any denomination/church, any human dead or alive (no matter their title), neither in any being in whatever realm. This is the starting point of salvation.


John 8:32,36,58

And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”

So if the Son sets you free, you are truly free.

Jesus answered, “I tell you the truth, before Abraham was even born, i am!”


Acts 4:11-12

For Jesus is the one referred to in the Scriptures, where it says, 

‘The stone that you builders rejected has now become the cornerstone.’

There is salvation in no one else! God has given no other name under heaven by which we must be saved.”


1 Timothy 2:5

For, there is one God and one Mediator who can reconcile God and humanity—the man Christ Jesus.


Once this truth has not been established with you, no matter whatever denomination/church or sect you cling to, you have not begun the journey. This is actually the faith that you believe and confess that brings salvation.


Romans 10:8-11

In fact, it says, “The message is very close at hand; it is on your lips and in your heart.”And that message is the very message about faith that we preach:

If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by openly declaring your faith that you are saved.

As the Scriptures tell us, “Anyone who trusts in him will never be disgraced.”


And many are already in this truth. It is not lies everywhere, the truth is still preserved in many folds, and even in individual hearts.


Where do you stand?


Revelation 22:12-14

“Look, I am coming soon, bringing my reward with me to repay all people according to their deeds.

I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.”

Blessed are those who wash their robes. They will be permitted to enter through the gates of the city and eat the fruit from the tree of life.


Listen the moment a human dies the end has already come for them:


Hebrews 9:27

And just as each person is destined to die once and after that comes judgment,


And for us who believe and have gotten it right, the next verse says: 


Hebrews 9:28

so also Christ was offered once for all time as a sacrifice to take away the sins of many people. He will come again, not to deal with our sins, but to bring salvation to all who are eagerly waiting for him.


So there are yet many on the right path, the question is, are you in the number?


What is the problem today?


People do not seek to know God - Hosea 4:6, they seek to know others things, they seek man and the wealth and riches of the world, they go after sentiments like unbelievers.


Believers study the word, read scriptures and are always in tune with God. They don't just follow the crowd, when they fast they do it with God, same with their prayers and every moment of the day they are never disconnected from the Heavenly Father:


John 14:16-19

And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, who will never leave you.

He is the Holy Spirit, who leads into all truth. The world cannot receive him, because it isn’t looking for him and doesn’t recognize him. But you know him, because he lives with you now and later will be in you.

No, I will not abandon you as orphans—I will come to you.

Soon the world will no longer see me, but you will see me. Since I live, you also will live.


Some do not understand this simple role of the Holy Spirit neither do they understand the role of the blood, thus, you see people calling on Holy Ghost fire and the blood of Jesus. Ignorance in many places.


I could keep on writing . . .✍️


The real thing exists!


Are you in the real or you are with the crowd in ignorance, playing religion or a supposed leader teaching the wrong things and emptiness because of your ignorance, religion or personal gain. REPENT TODAY.


2 Timothy 2:15

Work hard so you can present yourself to God and receive his approval. Be a good worker, one who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly explains the word of truth.


BE PART OF THE REAL THING.


Help us Good Lord.


He calls us blessed.


Love

DO YOU STILL SEE?

Habakkuk 2:3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, it will not tarry. It may have been easy when we first believed, to visualize the promises. We reach out with zeal, loving God, seeking to do exploits. That was when we first believed, just as Jesus said: John 3:3 Jesus answered and said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." When we become born again we see God's kingdom, our spirit man is reborn and we count the flesh as nothing. Then time passes by, we are in the world, all its distractions, temptations, responsibilities, challenges and so on begin to reveal themselves. The question then is: * Can we still see heaven? John 3:3 * Are we still zealous? John 2:17 * Are we continuing in those things? Acts 2:42 * Are we walking in love? 1John 4:7 or Has the cares and worries of life and service ta

DO UNTO OTHERS . . .

-
Matthew 7:12 "Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. It is hypocritical of us to expect people to stand with us when we are experiencing challenges yet when we see others face their own challenges, we begin to imagine what they must have done wrong or maybe they annoyed God or did one evil or the other instead of reaching out to help as we would desire others to do for us. The same thing goes for prosperity, when the Lord opens a door for us and we have abundance of wealth or a breakthrough we expect others to rejoice with us, more so, some would even find it hard to give to others. What is our reaction when someone else gets this breakthrough, do we get suddenly suspicious without reason. Do we expect the person to reach out to us? It is better to stay on the side of encouragement than to sit as a judge or prosecutor. Jesus said, Matthew 7:2 "For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the same

MY YEAR OF FULFILMENT

-
Psalms 57:2 I cry out to God Most High, to God who will fulfill his purpose for me. We just finished the book of 1Samuel, in this book we see the cry of Israel for a king and how God raised Saul to rule them. We also saw how Saul disobeyed God and lost kingship for himself and his generation. He did not stop there, he went on to seek for the death of David, whom he saw as the next heir of the throne. In chapter 31, the last chapter, we see how Saul and all his sons and men were killed, it was tragic, however it was as a sign of relief for David. We could go on counting all the struggles and difficulties we faced in the past year. No, we should not, we should begin to look at all the positives, remembering all the good things God has done for us. If He promised it, He will do it and that is what we hold onto as we go through this year. Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. This is the year of fulfilment, and
