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 everythin...

For your sake

Out of greed for money, He was betrayed. So that some might maintain their position and scared to admit the truth, they lied and imprisoned Him.  He took up the challenge that the scriptures might be fulfilled. He didn't speak for Himself neither did He break the Law, rather He fulfilled it- the totality of it in the will of God.  He preached and practice the God, the law and the prophets hangs on what He taught and loved - Love. He had compassion and mercy on us. Mankind became free and empowered to go into greater heights in Christ through the Holy -Spirit that was sent to man when He left. Freedom came from forty lashes, crown of thorns, nakedness, crushed, bruised and death on the cross of one man - Jesus Christ. There is no greater love than a man lay down his life for his friends. Don't see this as a story of a generous guy that is willing to just die. He did all He did in God's will for your sake. How long will you stay bound? He's wait...

Poor in Spirit

Can you imagine when a boy who can't even feed himself without his parents, decides to stand alone because he thinks he's got all it takes to become the head of a family? You know he has set himself up for troubles.  When the devil thought that he can set his throne above God's, he found himself in far below expectations. Can you imagine what and how a creation can do and live without the creator? Miserable is an understatement. As much as an invention is dependent on the manufacturer. So is everything made by God is structured to survive in Him. God is LIFE and only Him can supply it, anything outside Him is DEATH!!!  I know we must have come across the scriptural verse that talked about "poor in spirit"-(Matthew 5:3). This is the genetic makeup of man. Finding sources outside of God will cause the person to be miserable.  There are times when we feel we've tried all we can to have a thing and we find ourselves at the end of the road and it l...

Redefining Relationships.

Good friends are gifts from God. Ask David and Jonathan. It is a good thing to have someone going somewhere same time as you, it is a wonderful thing to have somewhere you both are going somewhere and the same place at the same time and it is great to have people who don't necessarily have to go your way, but can connect, help and add value when you meet them. If friendship becomes a burden instead of a mutual benefit, then its high time for a rethink, discussion and adjustment in the relationship or a personal crosscheck of lifestyle.  One mustn't weaken the other rather they are to help each other to grow. It must be founded on and in Love. Love is a person with a personality - God and not just a feeling.  The expression of God to man, man in Christ and man to other men is Love. The fact that you like the person isn't enough for a solid friendship. You must also have a definition and destination. What is your friendship all about and where it's leading...

Thou Sluggard...

A person who is habitually lazy is known as a sluggard. Can u imagine that you are given a work that involves that you must have a partner, then you find out that the other person isn't active(not because he doesn't have strength, but he doesn't like working hard) when the work had started already?  Even if you try to cover up for the work by overworking yourself, you either end the work late or get sick after the work. Why would anyone want to work with a lazy man? But sometimes that man doesn't even know he's lazy. He needs someone to tell him.  Until an external force acts on a resting body, it will enjoy and believe that's the best place and situation is his present state. In the case of a lazy man, he doesn't even see the reason to work or put things together.  The Lord has advice and a command for the sluggard. He is saying  You lazy fool, look at an ant.  Watch it closely; let it teach you a thing or two "(Proverbs 6:6 MSG). An ant i...
