Remember the Foundation

We’re living in dynamic times and things are changing quite fast. If those who lived in yesteryears came back, they would think they’ve discovered life on another planet because of the way things have revolutionized. It would take them a lifetime to understand what is going on.  Life is so fast paced nowadays, before you comprehend the fundamental principle of a trend, a phase is gone and another is midway. But how can we sustain sound judgment when life is moving at jet speed engaging us in full time comprehension occupation? Women on the Rise For instance, we hear of women empowerment all over. Have you ever been curious to find out the facts behind empowerment of Eves? I hope you have; but a good number of people especially women (no offense), jump into the wagon without establishing the objectives of this noble cause. And because they don’t build the cause on its foundation they go to extremes resulting in massive outcry from the male population. Misinformation ab...

Call Jesus

You’re a faithful Christian but your life is troubled so much that people around you doubt your faith. Cry no more! Wipe your tears and read this story –  [One day Jesus said to his disciples, “Let’s go over to the other side of the lake. So they got into a boat and set out. As they sailed, he fell asleep. A squall came down on the lake, so that the boat was being swamped, and they were in great danger. The disciples went and woke him, saying, Master, Master, we’re going to drown!” He got up and rebuked the wind and the raging waters; the storm subsided, and all was calm. “Where is your faith?” he asked his disciples.] Luke 8:22-25 NIV Back to your story; There is no doubt you’re sailing with Jesus in your life. But your progress is in danger because heavy and crippling problems have being hanging on your life despite your firm and strong beliefs. Everyone goes through a wilderness experience but the intensity varies from one person to another. Yours could be...

Victor or Victim?

Whose Orders Are You Serving? Whether you’re a victor or a victim in life depends on whose orders you’re serving. God’s Command to Adam and Eve was; Rule and Subdue the Earth. Genesis 1:28. Man’s dominion over the earth posed a threat to Satan’s jurisdiction (earth). So the devil embarked on an operation to secure power and dominion  over his territory ‘earth’. Fall of man as recorded in Genesis chapter three marked the outcome of his operation. Satan Regains Control Over Earth And Man Becomes His Slave Through Sin. Sin found its way into man’s life and out went power and dominion over the earth back into the hands of the enemy. Sin gave birth to evil, suffering, pain and became a tool of enslavement. Christ Restores Man to His Position; To Rule and Subdue the Earth. Jesus Christ through His death and resurrection repossessed power and authority from Satan. He passes this power and authority to man through salvation. He says; "come to me all you who are wear...

Gathering the Blessing

Deception and Disobedience Attracts a Curse on the Ground Genesis 3:17-19, To Adam he said, “Because you listened to your wife and ate from the tree about which I commanded, ‘You must not eat of it,’ “cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat of it all the days of your life, NIV .” Fear of God Attracts Favor Enoch walked with God for 300 years. A third generation descendant of Enoch; Naoh, becomes the game changer. Genesis 5:28-29, When Lamech had lived 182 years, he had a son. He named him Noah and said, “He will comfort us in the labor and painful toil of our hands caused by the ground the LORD has cursed, NIV .” After the Flood Genesis 8:20-22, Then Noah built an altar to the LORD and, taking some of all the clean animals and clean birds, he sacrificed burnt offerings on it. The LORD smelled the pleasing aroma and said in his heart: “Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though every inclination of his heart is evil...
