Dealing with GOOD and Evil #LagosCollapseBuilding

A man from the collapsed building in Lagos, had 3 kids in the whole incident. The building was where the kids and many others went to school. He couldn’t afford the funds  for their academics, but on the day when the building collapsed was when he happened to foot the bill and lost the kids later in the day!

Francis Chan made an analogy of life saying, imagine life was this long rope, and this painted part (which was like a few inches) was your life right now and the rest of the rope (which was really long)  was eternity. Sometimes we get too focused on the little part and we forget about eternity, where we will live forever.

People Matter…

I was short on time and I needed to get quite a number of things done, but I needed to be there for this person, and pray with him. I have been pushing this task aside for far too long and it was time for me to get busy, like every other minister I put aside my life for his, prayed for him and encouraged him. Don’t ask me how many times this has happened, but one thing I have always found out is, GOD takes care of everything else as you put HIM and HIS work first.

You’re the Goodness Of GOD

I want to encourage you today by saying you’re special, awesome, perfect, blessed and highly favored of GOD! The earth is filled with the Goodness of GOD, which is you! GOD BLESS 😊
I did a live video of it Check https://youtu.be/_zIdT7Ho3sI

For the word of the LORD is right; and all his works are done in truth. He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the LORD. - Psalm 33:4-5

Forgive and be the Christian JESUS wants you to be

Forgive And Be The Christian JESUS Wants You To Be

He loveth transgression that loveth strife: and he that exalteth his gate seeketh destruction.

Proverbs 17:19

Live a life that is after peace… be of CHRIST. Learn to let things go, and forgive quickly. It is hard, but just do it; not only because it's the Christian thing to do, but because it eases the heart and helps you worry less. There is a lot going on in life, thinking about what someone else has done to you is way more trouble you can't afford to deal with. You know what can be more astonishing is, when someone has totally forgotten, or you try to remind him or her and innocently CANNOT remember what he or she did to you! That can be so horrible! You think it's above forgiveness! The funny thing is you ask yourself who the supposed #Christian is meant to be forgiving and forgetting! Nevertheless, you have to let go and forgive.

²¹ Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?

²² Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.

Matthew 18:21-22King James Version (KJV)

He that covereth a transgression seeketh love; but he that repeateth a matter separateth very friends.” Proverbs 17:9

Another thing, as a Christian, don't react back, it's like #Revenge. For instance, I used to know someone that would insult the heck out of anything, and the person would not hesitate to throw some "insultive" words at me. I would let go and all, but the day I asserted an insult at her, just describing what she had done, she came out saying, "and you call yourself a #Christian and you can call me that".... In my mind I was like, "You are Christian too, and you insult me all the time, I only took one shot at you to address what you have done, and what about the thousand negative words you used towards me?"......

We just have to be that #Christian that is #patient and puts up with a lot, but at the same time, let some people know when they have crossed some boundaries....

⁴ Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him.

⁵ Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit.

Proverbs 26:4-5King James Version (KJV)

Realize when to let someone know they can't talk trash, and also when to let go. Well, since we're all humans, and there are times we can't see the difference, we just have to spend time with GOD, so we can know #HIS #VOICE and know what HE has to say concerning each #issue, because all #issues don't deserve the same kind of response, like the proverb above states.

When there was a #Famine, Abraham and his family moved to where there was abundance (Genesis 12:10). When famine arose again during the time of Isaac, his son, he stayed put as GOD led him into abundance (Genesis 26:1-14). As Christians, it is important to be able to learn how to understand the #difference....

⁸ This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

Joshua 1:8King James Version (KJV)

Bible study also helps to know how GOD would want a Christian, you, to deal with each issue: be calm or attack, pray and fast or praise or do all together, give or withhold....

“I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go; I will guide thee with Mine eye. Psalm 32:8

JESUS has made the HOLY SPIRIT available to us all, who will guide and guard us, teaching us the way of the #FATHER.

²⁶ But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

John 14:26King James Version (KJV)

#Prayer Point: ¹⁴ If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.  John 14:14King James Version (KJV)

¹⁴ For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:

¹⁵ But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Matthew 6:14-15King James Version (KJV)

LORD, GIVE ME THE HEART TO FORGIVE QUICKLY AND LIVE PEACEABLY WITH OTHERS, IN JESUS NAME, AMEN.

¹¹ Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

Psalm 16:11King James Version (KJV)

LORD, GIVE ME THE GRACE OF DIVINE ABILITY AND A DISCERNING SPIRIT TO BE ABLE TO DIFFERENTIATE, AND TREAT EACH SITUATION THE WAY YOU WANT ME TO, NOT THE WAY I WANT TO, IN JESUS NAME, AMEN.

⁵ If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

How your sins are dealt with!

How Your Sins Are Dealt With!

By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the Lord men depart from evil. Proverbs 16:6

Your sins, wrongs, iniquities, mistakes and many more, are treated with #Mercy and #Truth; that's how you're forever seen as a child of #GOD. You tap into this mercy when you cannot place or explain what is going on with your #Life.

Just say "GOD HAVE MERCY ON ME AND FIX MY LIFE, MAKE IT PERFECT, SO I CAN GIVE YOU ALL THE GLORY AT THE END OF THE DAY".....

***Remember to give GOD the #Glory when HE #FULFILLS" your #requests*****

You want to be sin free, fear GOD! Don't do things that you know are not right in the sight of GOD; that's one perfect way to stay away from sin. Like the way Joseph ran away from adultery, and escaped sin, you need to also do the same.

⁹ There is none greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou art his wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?

Genesis 39:9 King James Version (KJV)

#PRAYER POINTS: ¹⁴ If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. John 14:14

LORD, GRANT ME THE GRACE TO LIVE A HOLY AND RIGHTEOUS LIFE, FOR YOU, FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE, IN JESUS NAME, AMEN.

¹¹ Teach me thy way, O Lord; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name.

Build Your Life On JESUS

⁴ The sluggard will not plow by reason of the cold; therefore shall he beg in harvest, and have nothing

Proverbs 20:4 King James Version (KJV)

There is time for everything. Each day is a suitable moment to plan for the future. Whatever you do today, is a foundation for the future. Your present is important because it creates a record that becomes your past and can affect your future.

3 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

Ecclesiastes 3:1 King James Version (KJV)

It is important that you work hard at this moment to make sure that all you live for is CHRIST. Don't worry if you have previously failed, that is why we have the #Grace to help us accomplish the work GOD has for us no matter the errors or situations.

³ If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?

Psalm 11:3 King James Version (KJV)

As a Christian, it is vital that you do your best. Build your life now with CHRIST, and involve HIM in everyday of your life, for your today will affect your tomorrow. You have a long road ahead of you; many more days to live for JESUS.

¹⁷ Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.

Proverbs 27:17 King James Version (KJV)

You will always have a bright future when you improve on yourself daily, and life is only amazing with JESUS. There are many challenges in life you will be better off when you defeat them with the help of JESUS.

¹⁰ Not purloining, but shewing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things.

¹¹ For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,

¹² Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;

¹³ Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;

¹⁴ Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

¹⁵ These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority. Let no man despise thee.

Titus 2:10-15 King James Version (KJV)

With the power of JESUS, you are empowered to stop sinning and be of good works for the LORD.

⁴⁷ Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like:

⁴⁸ He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.

⁴⁹ But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.

Luke 6:47-49 King James Version (KJV)

For each day you live, you are building a foundation for the future. Building a good foundation costs time, don’t build quickly or cheaply. Have values and standards in life, learn to always do it the right way, and don’t give up on JESUS. Just because it did not happen now, doesn’t mean it will never happen! Don’t instill in your life the values and principles of the world.

Building your foundation is costly and continuous; it will cost you almost everything. In life, you have to give up many things to live for JESUS. You will have to forsake people that don’t add value or improve you. You just don't get there; you have to make a continuous effort to remain a faithful Christian that you are.

¹² Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

¹³ For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

Philippians 2:12-13 King James Version (KJV)

As Christians, We should all work out our salvation with fear and trembling, knowing things that will ruin and bring down our faith. There was a person that I came to know at work, and we became close. When I went home I said to myself, this is a "no-no". The guy is worldly, swears and curses, is in a fraternity and there were many other things I could not identify with. Then I told GOD, "Please handle it". I used to see the guy every day, now I only see him twice a week. I knew friendship with him will not be healthy for my Christian Faith. When I hang around him, I feel I miss JESUS.

When you build a faulty foundation, you become not more than a tourist attraction. You accomplish nothing and people wonder how your life fell apart and how bad it went for you; how your life became a total waste because you didn't build it with JESUS.

There will always be trials and tribulations in life, the storms of life will always come, and when it hits you, it will reveal the kind of Christian that you are. When the storms of life hit, hold on to the WORD OF GOD, always remember HIS promises concerning your life and you will make it through.

In all you do, don’t become anything else other than a Christian.

⁵⁸ Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

1 Corinthians 15:58 King James Version (KJV)

#Prayer Point: ¹⁴ If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. John 14:14King James Version (KJV)

LORD, do not let anything affect my love and trust in YOU, IN JESUS NAME, AMEN.

³⁸ For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,

³⁹ Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the Lord hath made even both of them.

Proverbs 20:12 King James Version (KJV)

GOD created everything about you…

Genesis 1:26 King James Version (KJV)

And everything HE made has a function! Put them into good use... Every part of your body has its use.... It is one thing for GOD to create you, it is another thing for you to make #Great use of yourself!

¹⁴ I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.

Psalm 139:14 King James Version (KJV)

GOD makes us special!

GOD Makes Us Special!

¹⁵ There is gold, and a multitude of rubies: but the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.

Proverbs 20:15 King James Version (KJV)

One thing people like about someone who always has something helpful to say is that, he/she always has good advice regarding every issue or problem and everyone else likes to consult him/her. It will be a great thing that you become that person everyone wants to refer to because you are full of wisdom.

²⁴ For he looketh to the ends of the earth, and seeth under the whole heaven;

Job 28:24 King James Version (KJV)

To know all there is to know about life starts with you acknowledging the ONE TRUE CREATOR. When you spend time with the one true KING, you will end up being like HIM.

¹⁹ And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.

²⁰ For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.

1 John 3:19-20 King James Version (KJV)

²⁴ And all the earth sought to Solomon, to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart.

1 Kings 10:24 King James Version (KJV)

Solomon became a person who everyone around the world would love to listen to; he gained his wisdom by spending time with GOD and deciding to give his all to GOD. GOD blessed and granted him his heart's desire.

²⁹ And God gave Solomon wisdom and understanding exceeding much, and largeness of heart, even as the sand that is on the sea shore.

³⁰ And Solomon's wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the children of the east country, and all the wisdom of Egypt.

³¹ For he was wiser than all men; than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and Chalcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol: and his fame was in all nations round about.

³² And he spake three thousand proverbs: and his songs were a thousand and five.

1 Kings 4:29-32 King James Version (KJV)

¹³ Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

Hebrews 4:13 King James Version (KJV)

Let GOD be important to you, and all you will need in life will be made available.

⁹ Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me,

Isaiah 46:9 King James Version (KJV)

⁴ For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O Lord, thou knowest it altogether.

Lying is not for you a Christian!

Lying Is Not For You A Christian!

¹⁷ Bread of deceit is sweet to a man; but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel.

Proverbs 20:17 King James Version (KJV)

You know that moment you completely forgot about something, you intended to do it and all of a sudden it skipped your mind and you don’t want to sound irresponsible. Then, something within decides to tell a lie to escape the situation!

Well, that’s wrong; lying is wrong. A lie is a lie no matter what it looks like. Even though it saves your head, you deny JESUS, who is the truth, that you never knew HIM!

³² Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.

³³ But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.

Matthew 10:32-33 King James Version (KJV)

When you tell a lie, you claim you don’t know JESUS. At the same time, HE claims HE doesn’t know you if anything happens and you find yourself on the other side (when you die), immediately!

²³ And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

Luke 9:23 King James Version (KJV)

Is it worth it? When JESUS said you should carry your cross and follow HIM, HE meant it! The CHRIST-like lifestyle is needed daily, and lying is something, you can do without, as a Christian. It is not impossible; pray about it, discipline yourself, be responsible and avoid situations that tempt you to lie! When you grow every day in spending time with JESUS, you get the power to quit sin, to learn more, click this link bit.ly/1Ehhg8I

²⁶ But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

John 14:26 King James Version (KJV)

You can make the HOLY SPIRIT your reminder. It's HIS duty to remind us of all things; tell HIM to remind you about anything, and HE surely will. I have tried and it works!

Sometimes you may not lie with your words, but your actions that are not CHRIST-like will prove to others that you are not a Christian! How horrible will it be for someone to ask around whether you’re a Christian, and people say you obviously aren't one!

¹³ Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

John 16:13 King James Version (KJV)
