Adulterousness

   When two people are joined together before an altar, they become life partners automatically. They are pronounced as husband and wife. In a case where one of them becomes unfaithful to their marital vow by having sexual intercourse with someone other than his/her spouse is called ADULTERY.

   Unfortunately, the body of Christ has some set of people who commit this act. You might want to ask how the church of God is committing this grievous sin. I will be please to tell you that the church is guilty of this - BIG TIME!

   We profess Jesus Christ as our Lord and savior. We say that we are Joint-heirs with Christ Jesus in God. We even say Christ in us, the hope of Glory. All these quotes are true indeed but our act makes it of no effect.

   Imagine a wife always boosting of her husband, but always gain pleasure in someone else - isn't that adultery? This is what we that claim to be Christians do, by proclaiming Jesus as our everything but seek for everything we need in the things he has given is.

   The church is the bride to Christ Jesus, but she seems to have other means to get what she needs apart from her husband. This is a call to repentance brethren. We can't keep calling Jesus names of what he can do for us and not believe in what we say He is.

   He is more than that burden or pain that you think you can bear. Take it all to Jesus and cast ALL your burdens to Him alone. He will take them from you and give you rest! How long will you suffer? He can put ALL in control if you can just BELIEVE!

   Don't just say it all the time, believe it and you will have it. He is ever FAITHFUL and ever SURE. He's always in Love with you and wants you to understand that He's everything you need (john 15:5). Come as you are, drop your heavy loads and look up to Jesus the author and finisher of our faith( Hebrews 12:2). His arms are wide and He will give you rest.

Shalom!!!

Lesson In All Things

Learning isn't limited to a gathering of people with a tutor, but an experience that leaves a mark of influence. To learn means to gain knowledge or skill by studying, practicing, being taught or experiencing something. A lesson is a section where something is being taught and learned. It, therefore, means that there must be a teacher and a student. Life is a teacher. It teaches anyone who cares to listen and have wisdom. We are in the habit of running each day the same way and the days turn to weeks, weeks to months and later to years. We forget to pause, pay attention to life and absorb wisdom to live. Some of us have experienced but haven't gotten the lessons out of some. Wisdom is not measured by age or level of exposure or experience, but lessons got from our encounter with life. What did you learn as a child, teenager, adult, parent, businessperson, lawyer, pastor, teacher, etc? Whatever you do isn't as important as what are you learning? What will you pa...

The King Comes

Who is coming? Why is He coming? What is He coming to do? The major reason anyone would stand for anything is because they don't just know, but understand the purpose and mission of that thing.  Sometimes, I find out that I am carried away by activities that don't really matter to the reason why I joined a group or something in the first place. So, what I do to get myself back on track is that: I slow down and ask myself how I got where I am and why I started or made the decision in the first place. And by the grace of God through the help of the Holy Spirit, It works - I find my way back. As Christians, we have been taught so many things and have been involved in so many things(which are very good) that we sometimes lose track of why we are believers in the first place. It is good to serve God and to love others as ourselves, but we must also remember to go back to the cross. Not just to receive grace and strength to do His work, but to also serve as a reminder of t...

SAME GOD

   A song in Yoruba (Nigeria) says " the Lord is, as the time of old, but we don't worship God like old times " . This is very true. I always wonder why there was power in the early churches, but now, we hardly see the manifestations like the ones we read about the book of Acts of the Apostles?!    Some times ago I thought that Christianity was a joke passed down to generations. We have little people in the church performing miracles, what are the other members of the church doing? Are we just smiling at situations and circumstances and say God is in control when God has bestowed power to do on us and has made us gods (psalms 82)?    We are supposed to be armies pulling down strongholds (2 Corinthians 10:4) of the devil instead the church is held in captivity of the strong. The Great and Mighty God is always present but we don't seek Him for help. Where is the power of the church?! Haven't we lost it?    The fathers of old, the prophets, and t...
