THE DOING GRACE

  No matter how good the grammar used in qualifying LOVE, It isn't all therein. It's majorly about putting others first. Love is sacrifice. When the Lord loved us He GAVE His son (John 3:16), that is LOVE! Can you imagine you giving your most desirable asset to a total stranger who doesn't even care about you or your gift (1 John 4:9)?
    The word LOVE has so many things in it that make it the only thing that holds all things. Love isn't a function of what you think or how you feel. It is about what and how you DO what you do. When what you call Love isn't DOING, then it might probably be any other thing.
   We must know that Love can't be defined. Why? The simple answer is that God is LOVE. Someone might want to ask how must we love? I'd love to inform you that there certain things that can't be done without the Holy Spirit (1 John 4:12-13).
   You can be successful, happy, and so on due to principles you've applied, but definitely not Love. The first fruit of the spirit is Love (Galatians 5:22), this is the evidence of the holy spirit in you. Why? By their fruit, you shall know them. So when you do things out of Love, it's a simple thing to know, YOU DON'T HAVE THE HOLY SPIRIT.
   The spirit of God helps in sacrificing what we have ( not necessarily money), but sharing substance and virtue with others. Not in anger, but a cheerful giver is important (2 Corinthians 9:7).
   Our God gave a part of Himself for our sin when we were yet sinners ( Romans 5:8) He gave us what we can't afford when we don't even know or care about it yet. He brought us to His saving knowledge so that we can also share what we have received from Him. Whatever you've received, is meant for sharing.
    Don't hold it back (1 John 4:11). Whatever you like to hold back while others need it should be given out, give it up for the edification of the church and make souls come to Christ. The Doing Grace Is The Giving And Sacrificing Grace Which Is Wrapped In Love Given By The Holy Spirit. PRAISE GOD!!!

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...
