LOVED but USED

   People fall into sin, yet they Love God. They really want to get things straightened out by explaining themselves forgetting that God knows and sees all. If you most know, you can Love God, yet the devil can still manipulate you.

   Our Lord Jesus Christ said in Matthew 6:24 "no man can serve two masters for either he was will hate the one and love the other, or else he will hold to the one and despise the other. Ye can not serve God and mammon". This verse is definitely true, but I would like to tell you that the devil doesn't care whether you hate and despise him. He can still get hold of you if you are wandering aimlessly.

   He's had his trick of pulling Christians down if you still have lust in you (James 1:14). Thank God we have a way out -GRACE, but that is not a free access to commit sin, rather the ability to abstain from sin. You can be Loved by God, yet the devil might use you or the other way round. Whose representative are you?

   God so good, we can't be tempted above what we can bear (first Corinthians 10:13). But one definite thing is that; whether you love and hold on to either God or Satan or not, you can still be used by any of them.

   Know who you are serving. Are u LOVED or USED? The Lord our God Loves the world(John 3:16), but He hates the deeds of it. If u want to be on the Lord's side today, open your heart and let Him come into it. He loves and he wants the best for you, not to be a borrowed vessel, but a son. Come to Him, accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior today, let the difference be seen and it shall be well with you.

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...
