SEED AND FRUIT

   Before any harvest, there was a planting process. Harvesting happens because there are fruits while the planting process starts due to the availability of seeds. There is no productivity without seeds and fruits.
    The most important thing about any fruit is that a seed comes first. The seed undergoes a process from germination to the production of fruits. The process takes TIME but it is not for the seed to grow itself, it must be nourished with water in the soil from time to time.
   In the production of animals, sperm must be planted in the womb and as time passes by another offspring comes to life. In Man, it's called the fruit of the womb. Why? Its because a seed was "planted" by the man in the woman's womb and with time a fetus becomes a fully grown baby.
   The church is the bride to our Lord Jesus Christ. We are His body and individually, we are members of that body. The Lord expects us to possess the fruit of the spirit. As explained above, there can't a fruit without a seed.
   The Lord Himself has imputed a seed (1 john 3:9) in us which is the HOLY SPIRIT. This is done that we might not fulfill the lust of the flesh but the fruit of the spirit which is Love. God is Love, He imputed the spirit of love in us and He expects the fruit called love in return.
   Only those that have surrendered their lives to the Lordship of Christ Jesus can have this seed exhibit the fruit. Before a tree can bring forth fruit the soil must be fertile. If the seed in us most grow to produce, there most a ready heart of productivity to bring forth the fruit of the spirit. If you aren't for God, repent and turn to Him. Everything about Gods kingdom is centered around the seed and the fruit of the spirit - LOVE. Peace be to you. AMEN!

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...
