Happy Day

      I've been taught that when things happens and they cause me to laugh or smile, that means I'm happy. But what happen when the day is happy? How do you even picture a laughing or smiling day? If someone ask me what face does the day put on? I'd say a straight face because only what happens to a man each day can describe it. A hectic day, a sad day, a busy day and so on. But what can make a day happy?    I believe the experience of everyone each day isn't the same, so how the day looks is due to the state of mind of each person. If that's it, how can a day be happy for me? Simple, when you have joy within you , you will forget about what is bad/sad about the day and call it a good/happy day. This can only be achieved in the presence of joy and this state doesn't mean that there are no bad situations or circumstances, it means that those things don't determine your happiness but because you have a source that joy springs from which is Christ J...

THE BIG DAY

   The reason for salvation, sanctification, justification is to be glorified(Romans 8:30). The essence of Christianity is to make it to the place where Christ promised us(John 14:2). Why would anyone want to undergo these processes just to end up in hell?    We enjoy everything in Christ and often times we forget about our happy ending. Let's remember that the one who starts something isn't as important as the person who finishes it. Don't lose focus on what is important all in the name of enjoying grace. Grace is the ability to do the right thing to please God not to say you're covered despite your secret sins(Romans 6:1-2). Grace doesn't mean there won't be challenges either, but the ability to overcome them (John 16:33).    There will always be tests of faith every now and then. Let's wait upon the Lord, never to be discouraged (James 1:12), but hold on fast to the faith that you've received through Christ Jesus. He never said it would be easy, but...

A LIFE OF PRAYER

   The act of giving thanks to God and asking something from Him in prayer. It's a vital ingredient in the life of a Christian. As we know that living as a Christian requires us to pattern our lives in the way of Christ. It's a continuous activity that should never stop or limited to one area of our lives.    The bible sayp Pray Without Ceasing(1 Thessalonians 5:17) Pray until something happen. We can't be believers and be mute. Though we have been told to behave like doves but we must be radical in times of prayer. There is no place you can get what you can't ask from God, and if you eventually get what looks like it, its without peace( Proverbs 10:22).    When Paul the apostle was writing to the church in Ephesus about the whole amour of God, he told them never to stop praying (Ephesians 6:18). How can you have such a great amour and still need prayers? It's very necessary.      Our Lord Jesus Christ was teaching His disciples t...

SEEK

   Trying to find something is a definite way of getting it - Matthew 7:7b. This principle goes for everything anyone wants. When you seek money, fame, respect, and so on, it will be found!    When we seek spiritual things, we will find them too. Seek first the kingdom of God and its righteousness... (Matthew 6:33) was an instruction given by our Lord Jesus Christ Himself. The kingdom of God has so many things in it. All that you need is right there in the kingdom, but you must apply faith by seeking.   There is no kingdom without w king. The KING of kings is our God who owns the entire empire. So seek Him while He is near and you will find Him (Isaiah 55:9). When you seek Him and His kingdom, things that the world seeks will look for you.    One thing that you must seek is COUNSEL (Proverbs 15:22). Though we are Christians, but the Lord had created us for one another. He has made someone else's weakness another's strength. When you have ...
