Chronicles of Truth

   The moment the word "children" appears, what comes to mind most the time is the result or outcome of a process. Especially when the psalmist was describing children in Psalms 127:3-5. My eyes were open to seeing results as children. Definitely, children have fathers. Let not go into defining children ( you can always read my post on CHILDREN), But my concern is that sometimes we (Christians) are referred to as Abraham's offspring and at the same time, we are called the children of God. How are we children of God and also Abraham's? It is possible that we are the offspring of both God and Abraham (His friend). We are considered as Abraham's offspring when we believe (Galatians 3:6-8), because the first to exercise Faith in God was Abraham and we are called his children because we are doing exactly what he did which was counted to him as righteousness(John 8:39) - FAITH . So we (believers) are the re-produced version(children) of the Father of Faith - Abraham...

   A legacy is defined as something that happens in the past or comes from someone in the past. Something that can also be called an inheritance or birthright that has become a generational one. It could be a property, money, disease, or a specific way of life. Just like legacy has been defined above, it can be passed down. The passing down of those things to the people of the next generation of the same bloodline or family. The people who are in someone's family in past times are called lineage . The legacy of "our" lineage means there is a group of people involved in this kind of bloodline. And we are talking about nobody but the Abrahamic lineage . This is a special kind of lineage( a chosen generation, a peculiar people that became a holy nation) that has been set apart from the foundation of the world to show forth the praises of Him that always call things and people out of darkness into His marvelous light. The man Abraham was testified about b...

 There is a call to greatness - the life of God in Him. To every call given, there is a reward for picking up the phone. Some people don't want to pick it up, because they feel like a heavy load will be dumped on them. But that's not true. He is faithful to the extent of doing the job Himself (1 Thessalonians 5:24). He just wants people to see Him through you. You wonder how people suddenly turn great men of God into idols, right? It's because they think these men are doing it themselves, forgetting that they have a source - Christ Jesus.    When God gives a command, it comes with blessings. Part of the blessings is the ability to do and reward for doing it. You will discover that when you do a work reluctantly, you tend to use more energy, but when you do with joy and gladness, no matter how hard it is, you would like to do more.    It is stressful to do God's work or obey His commandment without willingness. The moment you are willing and joyful,...

   You don't have what you have for the sake of yourself, but for other's sake. God gave you whatever you have because He wants others to see what He can do and that you also impact it into their lives with whatever it is. You became a Christian not for you to remain like that in your closet and just enjoy God all by your self. You are meant to "go into the world and preach the gospel"- Matthew 28:18-20. Evangelize to others and lead them to Christ just you were.   Material things are also things that mustn't keep to oneself and watch your neighbors suffer. Impact lives with your substance. Be it love, care, knowledge, e.t.c. Don't tell your neighbors to come back for something you have in your capacity ( Proverbs 3:27). Supply it if you have it. The more you acquire, the larger your responsibility becomes in all aspects (Ecclesiastics 5:11a). Share all you've been given by God to others. To whom much is given, more is expected. As God blesses y...
