HERE I AM!

    What a state? It is always talking about the moment. It isn't a past or future sentence. It is a response to the question WHERE ART THOU? The question of your place and situation at the present. The place you are coming from doesn't really matter but where are you NOW?
   This question was first to ask by the GREAT I AM in the beginning when man fell. He searched for us in the realm and state where he placed, but lo and behold man had fallen and just to find us, he asked where art thou? Genesis 3:9
   When the system of the world became totally corrupted and the virus of immorality took over and He found one out of all with grace- NOAH. He asked him this same question and he gave a positive reply in his action. Genesis 6:12-22.
   This might be easy to say like every other word that proceeds out of our mouth, but difficult to proceed out of the heart. It might be a general word and not in action. It is a statement of submission(which is the state of the heart).
   Submissiveness is not just what we want to do, but a MUST DO commandment from the chief commander- the LORD OF HOST through His words. He's been asking for man's whereabout since the fall, but he found just a little number of people who presented themselves to him when they heard him call.
    These people became great because they had one thing in common- the SPIRIT OF SERVANTHOOD. They were people of ready minds and hearts for the Lord's services. Whatever it takes and the Lord found them faithful and gave testimony about some.
   Our Lord Jesus Christ told us that the greatest amongst us should serve first. This is not to be a slave to humanity, but an ambassador of divinity to help mankind. Are you ready to be great and to be a god on earth?
   You must be born again, by accepting the Lord Jesus Christ as your savior, then submit under his sovereign authority for guidance, study, and do His word (the bible). By these, He'll become your Lord and savior personally. Then you must be ready for tasks and missions.
    Those that affected their generation had a task to do. Noah, Abraham, Jacob, Joseph, Daniel, Job, Moses, David, Elijah, Isaiah, Jonah, Paul, Peter, John, the great rabbi- our Lord Jesus Christ and so many others were given a place and a work to do and on top of that, they were all submissive to God.
   Are you willing to answer the call to duty by submitting to God or be just like others? Take your place over for the Lord? It is good to serve the Lord. If you are willing and ready, are you usable? Check yourself, ask the HOLY SPIRIT to cleanse, and direct you for the Lord's use(2 timothy 2:20-21). Be at the Lord's services and you will find yourself at the very top by saying HERE AM I LORD, USE ME! 
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...
