Where it start

    The coming of a baby to this world is to start living life. Everyone was once in this state. Then we began to grow, eat, talk, crawl, walk, run, read, write and so many other activities. It was a gradual process, but the first thing was to be born.
   In the kingdom of God, we were sinners at a point in our lives, then we became born again. Being born again is the bringing into life in Christ Jesus. At this point, many things begin to change in our lives.
   It is true that we must be born again(into Christ), but it doesn't end there. We must continue in the process of GROWING by feeding on the WORD OF GOD, WALK by letting the HOLY SPIRIT take the lead and we follow Him, and so many other things that pertain to the kingdom of heaven must be part of our behavior and attitude.
   We Christians must know that being born again is like getting an admission, but we must also engage in the activities of the kingdom to be sustained in it. A baby can't grow if he/she doesn't eat while a child of God can't grow without feeding on the word of God.
There are so many activities that must be engaged in the kingdom because it's a kingdom that is not limited by time, so one shouldn't be stalked on the fact that I'm born again. It's just a step out of millions of steps to take.
   The factor between a SAINT that has a past and a sinner with a future is THE CROSS. One meets the Cross and continued in the taking of those steps of Faith while the other must enter his future by taking one step of faith.
   Brethren, Christianity all started at the cross which is the bridge by believing and confessing Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, but it doesn't end there. We must keep moving. When we allow the holy spirit to lead us through the journey, then we will end victoriously. There is more to Christianity than getting saved when we allow the holy spirit to take the lead and we follow by faith. May the Lord help us in Jesus name. Amen! 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...
