A CALL TO OUR SPIRITUAL WALK WITH GOD AS GOSPEL MINISTERS

 As we are busy working in His vineyard as ministers let's make sure we are doing spiritual check-ups from time to time to ascertain whether we are drawing closer to Him or drifting away.

We should never at any point substitute our walk with Him(which is basic thing) for working for Him(which many are doing already).

Your labour of love is a welcome development but make sure your love for His person and The Truth is more.

What will really determine your heavenly reward is not the volume of works but the depth of your walk with Him.

We should never be carried away by our charismatic displays but we must be watchful of our thoughts and characters.

Those angers,envies,jealousies,bitterness,strives,unforgiven spirits,lusts,immoralities,greediness,pride,arrogance,carnalities etc. must be dealt with now.

The standard of God is very high.You can allow satanic deceptions make you think you are on good times with your Master because of the results you are seeing but you need to shine your eyes to God's demands over your life.

Your characters and attitudes especially the inner ones should tell you where you are with Him.The most sorrowful thing that can happen to you is to be found wanting on the judgement day.To hear those dreaded irreparable statement,

"DEPART FROM ME YOU WORKER OF INIQUITY" Math.7:23

That dreaded heart rendering and breaking day will shock many.To have assumed you will make it all along only to discover you are not qualified is better imagined than experienced.

I once knew a young guy years back in the 90's who God used me to impart into his life.He allowed the manifestations of spiritual gifts to enter his head and forgot about the fear of the Lord.He really went off tangent and made a shipwreck of his relationship with God.

Like many today,they've allowed evil spirits to make them believe they are still doing well due to their exploits not knowing they've gone far away from The Spirit of Grace. 

These are the days of falsehood and deceptions.Many have become borrowed vessels.God is only just honouring His name and not them again.

Many also have lost the Holy Spirit and an unholy one has possessed them.Unknown to them they are now doing extra ordinary exploits for satan thinking they are still using God's Spirit.

It's a terrible thing to have spent all of one's life serving God only to realize in eternity that God was not associated with your exploits.

I challenge all genuinely called servants of God whether big or soon to be big to humbly go before God and ask Him to X-ray our lives.

Like Jesus told Rick Joyner in his book THE QUEST

"IF ONLY MY CHILDREN CAN JUDGE THEMSELVES BEFORE THAT DAY,THEY WILL NOT NEED MY JUDGEMENT AGAIN"

I leave you with Revelation 2:4-5

"BUT THIS IS WHAT I HAVE AGAINST YOU:YOU DO NOT LOVE ME NOW AS YOU DID AT FIRST.THINK HOW FAR YOU HAVE FALLEN!TURN FROM YOUR SINS AND DO WHAT YOU DID AT FIRST.IF YOU DON'T TURN FROM YOUR SINS,I WILL COME TO YOU AND TAKE YOUR LAMP-STAND FROM ITS PLACE" Good News Bible

I pray you take these words serious and repent if you are guilty in the name of Jesus.Maranatha!

THE GREATEST DELIVERANCE BELIEVERS NEED

In this my line of ministry,I have come to conclude that the deliverance Christians need is not deliverance from demons but deliverance from bad and ungodly characters.

Unfortunately,there is no deliverance prayers or ministration for this.You will need to personally work on yourself with great diligence and discipline.

 
"I BESEECH THEE BRETHREN BY THE MERCIES OF GOD THAT YE PRESENT YOUR BODIES A LIVING SACRIFICE,HOLY AND ACCEPTABLE UN TO THE LORD,WHICH IS YOUR REASONABLE SERVICE" Romans 12:1

 
"THIS I SAY THEN,WALK IN THE SPIRIT AND YE SHALL NOT FULFILL THE LUST OF THE FLESH" Galatians 4:16

 
"WHEREFORE,MY BELOVED,AS YE HAVE ALWAYS OBEYED,NOT AS IN MY PRESENCE ONLY,BUT NOW IN MY ABSENCE,WORK OUT YOUR OWN SALVATION WITH FEAR AND TREMBLING" Philippians 2:12

 
"KEEP THY HEART WITH ALL DILIGENCE;FOR OUT OF IT ARE THE ISSUES OF LIFE" Proverbs 4:23

 
"WHEREFORE,SEEING WE ALSO ARE COMPASSED ABOUT WITH SO GREAT A CLOUD OF WITNESSES,LET US LAY ASIDE EVERY WEIGHT,AND THE SIN WHICH DOTH EASILY BESET US,AND LET US RUN WITH PATIENCE THE RACE THAT IS SET BEFORE US" Hebrews 12:1

 
"THEREFORE LEAVING THE PRINCIPLES OF THE DOCTRINE OF CHRIST,LET US GO ON UNTO PERFECTION;NOT LAYING AGAIN THE FOUNDATION OF REPENTANCE FROM DEAD WORKS,AND OF FAITH TOWARD GOD" Hebrews 6:1

Let me stop here.These verses are enough to convince you that you have a lot to do to set yourself free from all ungodly characters.People should stop playing and joking with God's grace.

 
"WHAT SHALL WE SAY THEN?SHALL WE CONTINUE TO SIN THAT GRACE MAY ABOUND?GOD FORBID..." Romans 6:1

God give you a better understanding.

TRUE SPIRITUALITY PART 1

Am alarmed at so many Christians who think that demonstrating the gifts of the Spirit makes them spiritual (Read, 1Corinthians.1:5-7, 3:1-3).

“That in everything ye are enriched by him, in all utterance, and in all knowledge; Even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you: SO THAT YE COME BEHIND IN NO GIFT; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:” (1 Corinthians 1:5-7)

“And I, brethren, could not speak unto you AS UNTO SPIRITUAL, BUT AS UNTO CARNAL, even as unto BABES IN CHRIST. I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able. FOR YE ARE YET CARNAL: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?” (1 Corinthians 3:1-4)

How on earth can Paul call such gifted charismatic Christians carnal people? Your guess is as good as mine. There are those who think by been given titles or busy in their churches working for God mean they are spiritual. Noop!!!

While all these things are good, it's no sure sign of spirituality. Spirituality has to do with your personal understanding and relationship with God via The Holy Spirit (1John.1:1-7, Hebrews.12:22-24, John.16:12-16).

“That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life; (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;) That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ.” (1 John 1:1-3)

Your understanding about God affects everything about your life. You can't encounter God and remain carnally minded (Isaiah 6:1-8, Acts 9:1-6).

“Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts” (Isaiah 6:5)

The euphoria people experience when they feel the awesome presence of God is just a tip of the ice-berg when you are truly spiritual. Spirituality makes you Christ-like and God-like (Phil.2:5, 3:10).

“Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 2:5)

It catapults you into a realm that you begin to see things the way God sees them (Isa.55:8-11). You are no longer in the Outer Court or Holy Place, you now dwell in the Holy of Holies where the Ark of God-His Divine Presence, Manna-Divine Revelation, Aaron’s Rod-Divine Authority etc. (Heb.9:1-8). You see yourself as nothing but only living by His mercy (Isa.6:1-5).

In such realm of spirituality, your concern is LORD, LET THY WILL BE DONE (Mark 14:34-36, Heb.10:6-9).

“And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt.” (Mark 14:36)

Things of the earth mean nothing to you (Col.3:1-4, Math.6:19-21). You don't look down or compete with anyone. The only competition you have is becoming your best for God. This is the level God desires for His children.

“If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.” (Colossians 3:1-3)

Dare to start this journey with God? Spend more time in studying the Word, meditating on it, reflecting on the essence of life and discipline yourself to live a divine pleasing life.

With time your perception of life will greatly change and you will begin to experience spiritual visitation from God. Struggling with sin will be reduced to an inconsequential level. Your life will take on a new meaning as you begin to experience an awesome joy in your walk with God and your work for Him.

JESUS REMAINS THE CHIEF SUPREME COMMANDER OF THE UNIVERSE 

WOMEN AND MARRIAGE

The many chaos in marriages today can be solved by women.Wives should learn to follow Biblical principles not self principles.I have always believed any woman that knows how to submit to a man and boost his ego will have less problem.

I heard a woman of God years back who told all wives that they should learn to appeal to their husbands as a mini-god instead of challenging their authority. When a daughter of God fulfills all righteousness and the man refuses to change,if he is a believer in Christ,God knows how to break such.

Many Christian wives will always complain about their husbands attitudes. Your complains do not solve anything.Men are not emotional by nature but women are. When you take to nagging and quarrelling with him or depriving him of that thing,a man who loves you may respond back to you less or same with the quarrels.But when you see a man who just keeps quiet and pretend as if you are not there or just walks out of the house you had better be careful.In most cases this is no sign of holiness.

I know this might sound fallacious.While some men can be impossible,women have a lot to do in creating harmony and peace at home. There are many things in marriage that prayers can't solve. I have seen so many wives attending various prayer meetings to bring back peace to their homes,while it worked for some,majority are not seeing result.Why? THEIR IS NO DELIVERANCE OR PRAYERS FOR CHARACTERS. That is something you just have to work upon. Women should use the energy they use in complaining,nagging and fighting to seek for divine wisdom.

Your marriage is not broken by any external force but by internal force-YOU AND YOUR MAN.Any woman that understands her place in the life of a man will have less problem.Many will argue that men are the problems of marriages.While I may not argue with such line of thought,I will like to ask this question which I often ask women in churches or those who come for counselling.CAN ANY WOMAN EVEN ON FACEBOOK TELL ME HOW EVE WAS ABLE TO MAKE ADAM EAT THE FORBIDDEN FRUIT EVEN THOUGH ADAM KNEW IT WAS THE FRUIT?I will love to hear answers please.

If you can figure it out,you will know the power you women have to influence your husbands.But,many of you choose to use the power negatively to the detriment of the home.

The truth is many of you don't know how to make your man feel on top of the world.Am not talking about intimacy now.Intimacy is not love.If you think because your man have it with you regularly you had better think twice.I have seen men who are very intimate with their wives and at the same time with many women outside.

You just have to learn to be everything your man wants you to be as long as it does not violate the Word of God.The so-called little things he complains about and you just overlook it,or the attitudes he detest and you keep doing it.

Many women choose to rub shoulders with their men.Men are proud by nature and very egocentric,myself not excluded.Treat them like GENERAL IN THE ARMY.They want to feel and know they are in charge of their homes and not the other way round.That does not make you a slave as I have heard some women complain.

They make mistakes though which is as a result of the way women approach issues with them.Women have intuition and can have better judgement atimes.But when you try to force it on a man,it may not go down lightly.Some may know you are saying the right thing but because of your manner of approach and their own ego,they will still do what they want to do and the whole family will face the consequence.

The best way to tame a man is not by fighting him,reporting him to some or all,making him feel bad or comparing him with other men in order to abuse or challenge him.The best way to do it is to become a virtuous woman and someone who talks softly but persuasively with wisdom.

Men who tend to be promiscuous,though I don't expect such to be in a Christian home but these days we are seeing such even among ministers of the Gospel.While such act is abomination,women will do well to find out what went wrong.It's easy to claim that charm was used on your men but the truth is that in most cases charm is not involved but you are responsible. That is hard one I know.While such men will face their judgement but the pain and sorrows you go through could have been avoided if you played your roles very well.No faithful man suddenly wake up and become promiscuous.It's a process activated by the negative trend at home.

Lastly,CAN ANY WOMAN TELL ME WHY GOD CHOSE TO MAKE EVE FROM THE RIB OF ADAM AND NOT FROM ANY OTHER PART OF THE BODY OR FLESH AND ALSO THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THAT PART THAT WAS USED BY GOD?
