BIBELI MIMO :)

Just in case you're wondering bibeli mimo means ---> holy bible. ;) You know, when i saw this picture I laughed. you know why?...because I remember before, not too long ago whenever I see people highlighting or underling their bibles I'll always think "ah, this people want to spoil their bible, don't they respect God?, don't they know their bible won't be neat or fine again?' and i was really taking it *P* for God oh!...infact my bible cannot drop to the ground, ehn?...that person is in BIG SOUP!...lol

      But when he opened my eyes I was like WAOW!...you know the funny thing if I used to study the word then, I can probably be excused for all my drama, buh no o!..but I was good at memorizing bible verses though *wink .... one day I watched someone do exactly what I used to do(the whole drama thing) and then the Holy spirit was explaining how some people value the physical nature of the bible than what's in it. you'll see them buying 5,000 naira bible and they'll just stock it on the shelf then on sunday they have different bible covers to match their outfit. and is that how it's supposed to be?? NO!

    when I started fellowshipping and studying nobody gave me a permission slip before I picked an highlighter and start outlining some crazy truths I just saw!...and it was awesome, I thought i would have felt at least a twinge of guilt, but guilt doesn't even have the space to exercise itself when you are into the word.

    Friends let me tell you something today, THIS WORD IS POWERFUL!!! ITS EFFECT IS NOT FELT IF IT'S NOT READ IRRESPECTIVE OF HOW YOU CARRY IT SO PRECIOUSLY,OR YOU CLEAN IT WITH A DUSTER EVERYDAY, READ THIS WORD UNTIL IT BECOMES A PART OF YOU, UNTIL YOU START SPEAKING IT,THAT'S WHERE THE REAL VALUE LIES!!!

God Bless.

hi everyone so 'm not going to talk much today but i'll really love it if you watch this video by jamie grace and it's titled not alone.THE LINK IS ABOVE, JUST CLICK! You know when i first listened to this song a lot came to my mind because i've met few people both in school and outside school, some friends some just acquitances and hearing their stories is so touching.While i was listening to this song i prayed in my heart that they also get to hear this song and not only do they hear it but it also ministers to them.
     No matter the situation or circumstance you're in, my friend I assure you that they're not greater than his name. Keep trusting him as he continually supplies strength for each day! God loves you, your circumstance may not say so but that's what his word says so believe in that!
just in case you didn't see the one above, THIS IS THE LINK ---> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdpu-eyWJI8

Is your mouth saying something and your heart saying otherwise?

Hi kings and queens reading this right naw...lol (that's how they greet us in our school).So i was listening to this song ROOFTOPS by Jesus culture and it ministered so much to me.The song was simply a song of **open and true surrender**...you know while listening to the song I got to understand some things.

     You see what most people don't yet understand is that "ye are bought with a price" and that scripture means God has already bought you, every part and aspect of you, if he didn't have enough supplies to groom you and provide for all your needs he wouldn't buy you in the first place but most people even after they become christains still take this responsibility on their heads, struggling and striving with their own strength and it cannot just work that way.

     A christain saying "The Lord is my shepherd,i shall not want" but you still see that same person in the night with a frustrated heart thinking of how he's going to eat the next morning, and he(God) sees all this and just shakes his head.why? because he's in charge of you and he knows and then he's wondering why you're still racking your brains on how to live. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your understanding"...that verse sounds familiar right?...right now the reason why you're not where you're supposed to be is because YOU JUST WANT TO DO IT ALL BY YOURSELF!...see, that's why he has supplied his grace and strength and anything you need... in abundance sef!..or are you afraid of finishing everything from him thinking you've collected too much already, but NO!...he's saying COME AND COME AND COME, I WILL ALWAYS HAVE MORE!

       Why don't you open your heart to him right naw, I know you're a christain but see ehn - only me knows! because people around you can't see the manifestations of God in your life,(and that's not right), it's just like the villagers seeing the son of a king dressing just like them and then they're wondering "or is he not his son?" He's telling you now give me everything, your all, don't remove the bad part and give me the good part,he's saying stop killing your self everyday of guilt and then in church they're calling you "Brother,,,or sister" and then you smile but really that smile has been erased from your heart a long time ago.NO, DON'T DO THAT!...he's saying give me all of you just as you are and see how i'll fill you up like never before.

God Bless.

Have you activated your security yet?

Lol...right?...you must be wondering what the topic is about but let me tell you what he just explained to me naw....yhu know Romans 10:17 says "so then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God"

     it's funny how everytime( before now) I read this verse i always skip out *BY* and that totally changed the meaning. this verse really explains to us the importance of what we hear as christians.most times we say *it's just a song, i just like* or *I just like hearing gist* or even *i'm just hearing, it's not like 'm going to do it* but you know what, it's deeper than that!...we should constantly be in a state that whatever we hear should conform to what the word of God says about the situation. imagine the word of God as a security check point in your ears that whatever wants to go through your ears must be able to pass through the checkpoint if not send it right back!...it's time for you to stop wallowing in self-pity and saying "God, you know I want to have more faith but see i just lost my job, my father is sick and my sister needs money"....see, who told you, you lost your job?...just because a mere man said so, well i'm sorry but that's not what the word says, because a doctor said your father will die because it's a chronical disease, is that what the word of God tells you, did the word of God say you will beg for your family members to eat?..NO WAY!

    I really want us to really place the word of God as the security now, than later when after you've finished crying and feeling you're going to die because you think you're alone you'll now remember that "eh! but during my devotion today my bible told me this and that"...let these foreign materials be stopped as soon as they want to enter our ears, don't even give them an entrance!...as we do this our faith *comes* and *comes*-i.e increases!

Have you activated your security yet?...PLEASE DO!

God bless

What measure have you....in accepting the word?

Mark 4:20 " but these are the ones sown on good ground, those who hear the word. ACCEPT IT, and BEAR FRUIT: some thirty-fold, some sixty, and some a hundred."
      You see from this verse you discover that there are levels and there are levels.before this verse, you'll see that Jesus also gave reference to some seeds that were sown , the difference between this example and the others is that this set of people NOT ONLY HEARD IT BUT ACCEPTED IT. And accepting it means taking it until it becomes a part of you, until it carves a niche in your heart!
       Now lets go deeper---> Yes you heard the word , yes you've accepted the word, yes you think you've borne fruits but from this verse you discover that not all bear fruits as they ought to. The maximum is a hundred fold but some stop at thirty thinking "Yes! I've had enough" , some also stop at sixtyfold thinking "at least my fruits are more than that guy " while some get the whole HUNDREDFOLD!- which is the harvest planned for us! But how many really get it?
       From mark 4:24 " take heed what you hear, with the same measure you use, it will be measured to you; and to you who hear, more will be given" We can see that Jesus is telling us here that the same measure you use to accept the word, God will give you your respective fruits! And those that even hear and hear more fruits will be given to them.so if you hear the word and just say it's not for me yet, well it really won't be for you yet! If you hear the word and think okay let me use if for the head-ache I have but it can't work for the cancer my father has, well so be it! Your head-ache will really go and your father will be left with cancer but if you take the word as it is and use it in your on-going life situation or problem whether it be failure, sickness, promotion, unemployment then I promise you the word will prevail ! So don't just stop when you get a thirtyfold keep hearing and accepting until it increases and increases to a hundred fold!

 God bless.

LUCK OR FAVOUR ? choose

You see most times even with the knowledge that as christains luck is prohibited. Most people still strongly believe in the word LUCK. I was checking through my facebook page today and then I saw this picture, and I was like "Exactly!" beause really Exactly!.
     what exactly does luck mean? luck means ---> "good fortune; advantage or success, considered as the RESULT OF CHANCE"
     Now we all know we don't operate by chance, we don't wait for things to happen and then we're like "oh! so this thing can happen sef". We know from the bible that when we decree a thing it is established and due to the fact that we have the spirit of truth that reveals to us things to come. Therefore, we don't live by chance NO!, we don't take things as they come , NO! we SEE want we want to LIVE!...why do you think our lifestyle is different from others?
     I remember how people always say Good luck to other before the exam and i used to do the same before i came to the realization and then one day i asked myself really?...good luck?...so instead i say Success, then one day one of my coursemates told me hey ibk, good luck!...and then i pondered for 1 second should i accept it or should i just explain it to this guy, and i went with the latter ,after I finished explaining it even if the guy did not fully understand due to the pressure of the exam that was some minutes away I'm sure he'll never say "Good luck"..really you pray before you leave the halll ,you pray when you get to the exam centre, you pray when you sit down, you pray when they give you your paper (lol,but it's true!) and then all you can think of is Good luck! nah - I don't agree. it's better you don't say anything to me if it's that.
    This picture explains to you why it's not LUCK - whether good or bad.it's simply HIS FAVOUR-that's my shield!!!


God Bless.

PSALM 23:6

      "Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

all the days of my life;

And I will dwell in the house of the Lord

Forever"

WOAW!...if you just read what i read i hoped your reaction was like mine.You know we just usually say psalm 23 auctually we do not say so say is cancelled we rant it and rant it on until we get to forever and ever Amen.then we *sigh. You see by just reading verse 6 we see some important points.

1. SURELY 

2. GOODNESS

3. MERCY

4. WILL DWELL

5. HOUSE OF THE LORD

6. FOREVER.

     Now "surely" means definitely, definitely against all odds. "goodness and mercy" we all understand what that is, "shall" means come what may , "follow" means goodness and mercy will be attracted to you like a magnet, they will be right behind you, "i will dwell" meaning i will live, i will stay, i will sleep in the house of the Lord.The house of the lord means God is in charge of the house, the security is in his hand, the food provided, the clothing, what you need to be comfortable at all times is provided. so you don't need to be scared of uncertaintanities.why? because you are DWELLING - CURRENTLY LIVING in his house., "forever" - we all know what forever is, it means from now till ever!

HALLELUYAH SOMEBODY - that's if your spirit has been able to successful transmit the information to your mind (your concious being)      

God Bless

What is this gospel sef??

Okay so last week I was reading the book of Romans 1 and in verse 16 the holy spirit explained some things to me most of us would neglect.
                   Rm. 1:16 " for I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jews first and also for the Greek"
 
      Now some Christians say they are preaching the gospel but what is the gospel? Firstly gospel means good news. Now that we know that,we know that anything that is not "good news" is not the gospel.let me explain that, the gospel (GOOD NEWS) of Christ is what attracts unbelievers because it is the "POWER" of God to salvation.so once unbelievers believe they are saved.you wonder why just saying some things the pastor tells you to say makes you a Christian? It's because when you hear this gospel, it convicts you due to its power ,then when you believe this "good news" in your heart you are saved because this "good news" is the power ( NOTE - not "has" the power, but "is" the power" )to make you saved once you believe.Therefore "BELIEVING" IS THE KEY THAT UNLOCKS THE POWER OF GOD UNTO SALVATION WHICH IS THE GOOD NEWS - THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST!!!
 God bless.

The Power Of Confession.

So recently I got to discover the power of the words we say, you see as children of God we have been given the authority to cast out and to implant. ( he has given us authority over principalities and powers) . Therefore YOUR words make you or mar you. If you notice I highlighted "YOUR" why? Because most times people like to place their problems on pple for instance " ah, it is that man or woman that cursed me some years ago o" . See let me tell you something no man or woman can curse your destiny only you can! Let us speak life into our lives and into the lives around us. For instance I case you're feeling weak speak it out " by his stripes I am healed " If you're feeling confused " I have the mind of Christ " Before going for your exam " I am more than a conqueror through Christ who loves me " In case of financial situation " the lord shall supply all my needs according to his riches in glory" ......... And so many more!!! See the word of God is QUICK AND POWERFUL!!! Use it, speak it , breathe it, think it!!!!! GLORY SOMEBODY! HALLELUJAH! GOD BLESS! :) So ask yourself "WHAT WORDS HAVE I SPOKEN TODAY? "
