BE IT!!!

   Can you imagine someone being in the position to pass instructions to people on a particular platform and you can't connect with what he/she is saying?  

Or someone trying to advertise the functions of a drug and what it can do and you can obviously see the disease on him/her. Won't you ask why he/she is not using it? 

This can also be related to many people who stand for the things they are not. How can you speak against certain things that when you aren't any different? 

We live in a generation where there are too many signposts and billboards. These are the people that point to the way and never leave the spot they are. Why would I decide to make people understand and see what the Lord can do and yet not experience it?

    Enough of modern-day Pharisees and Sadducees. Be What You Preach, Teach Or Stand For First before you impose or pass it to others to become. What is the essence of your message?

For everything you represent, be the model - the person others can want to be like. Be it! Don't run around to make others who you are not. It's like being obese and you instruct people in a gym. That must be a joke.

You can only attract people who the Holy Spirit wants them to learn from your lifestyle. Teaching people the kind of life you live and experience.

Being the model isn't just enough, also be the standard. Don't be satisfied with a particular place or revelation. Press more to know and have more. Worldly things are vanity, but spiritual things are eternal.

 If you think that, being a mediocre, you will be surprised that the audience that God entrusted in your hands are passing you by, just to press for the more you refuse to get.

It is true that disciples can be greater than their masters, but also to an extent be the model and standard. Even Christ Jesus said greater works than what He did, we will do, but He became the standard. 

What and who are you becoming? Run fast ahead, looking up to Jesus Christ and become your message.

 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...
