THE CONNECTION THAT LINKS TO CHRIST AT ETERNITY

The Joy that exists in communities benefiting from the electricity power supply made available by the national grid is quite satisfying. In those communities, different fashion of development tend to outshine the darkness that has plagued economic and sustainable growth. In no distant time, neighbouring towns begin to witness the beauty of positive externalities. The scenario above describes the lifestyle of a Christian that genuinely practices the teachings of JESUS CHRIST and the nature of Peace that salvation brings to our immediate community. Every effort to share the gospel with others is an attempt to connect them with the light of the world which happen to be JESUS CHRIST. It is referred to as shining as light in a dark world. It chases away darkness and reassures hope in the heart of every hearer. Without the gospel of Christ, sinners grope in the darkness of sin that Satan uses to enslave them and we must act fast as watchmen directed by God to sound the alarm of danger becaus...

THE CONTENANCE OF FAITH

Godly comportment even in difficult times attracts the unquantifiable benefits that are resident in the righteousness of God. A heart panting after the word of God, desires to chew the meat which God has given to every believer for sustenance while on our journey to spend eternity with Him in Heaven. It is this meat that restores and reassures us of the hope for greater glory. We must learn to be patient with God especially when “light afflictions” tend to test our conviction. At such times, it is expected that we present to God our predicament and faithfully believe that with His supernatural abilities He can instil breakthrough in life situations.   In times like this, what we need to ensure is that we develop ourselves in ways which are capable of reminding us about the Power of God to wroth deliverance from the difficulty we may be encountering. We should also call to remembrance God’s supernatural victories of the past in ways that will forge in us the conclusion that He i...

THE DILIGENT WATCH OF THE FAITHFUL SERVANTS

In a world filled with the uncertainties of meretricious distractions, faithful servants of the Most High God are called to watch with utmost diligence. This imperative call to vigilance is well spelt in the words of Jesus Christ during his earthly ministry. We can very well find them littered across the pages of the King James Version of the Holy Bible which carefully reminds us of the necessity to remain spiritually alive and focused on the Heavenly race. 1 Peter 5:8, warns believers, "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour." This is a wake up call that drives home the urgency of remaining prayerful while preparing to be raptured with the Saints to Heaven. A diligent study of God's word at all times is the exact translation of watchfulness. It enables the believer to recognize and discern the Spirit of God equipping directives which coats the believer with the requisite demeanour for victory ...

AVOID FRAUDULENT GAINS

The Holy Bible warns against gaining wealth through fraudulent and deceitful means, and instead emphasizes the importance of honest labour and integrity in all our dealings. Proverbs 21:6 states, "The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a vanity tossed to and fro of them that seek death." This illustration here is one that amplifies the warning about the fleeting nature of wealth gained through dishonesty and how it ultimately leads to destruction. It is a reminder that ill-gotten gains are futile and will not bring lasting fulfillment.  The book of Proverbs also cautions us against the pursuit of wealth at the expense of our souls and the moral principles of Christ's teachings opens our eyes to these facts. Proverbs 16:8 advises, "Better is a little with righteousness than great revenues without right." Thie emphasis on the importance of this ethical conduct and integrity in all financial transactions is one that should not be taken with levity. It encour...

BUILDING AN UNWAVERING TRUST IN GOD FOR SUCCESS

While in the world, you can constantly attain 100% of goals accomplishment if only you administer the appropriate techniques. Eliminating every iota of doubt from your heart is very essential to ensuring that it does not rear up its ugly head in the least of your conversations and thoughts. This unique technique becomes more effective when it is fortified with absolute dependence on the God that ruleth and reigneth in the affairs of men. It is fine to emulate the dynamics of workable models but without the unique wisdom and the invaluable understanding that God proffers, one would only be found groping in darkness while struggling to stand-out of the cloud of witness which we have surrounding us. By following this proven plan, you will get rid of the uncertainties that may arise from towing the unprofitable path of harbouring doubt in the heart.  Just as there are hundreds of workable models to imitate, there are also thousands of people who have applied this technique and achieved...

ESSENTIAL NUTRIENTS FOR GREATNESS

Most things in life survive with the nutrition they get from ingesting food. Everything we take into our nervous system either acts to heal us or to destroy us. We must therefore ensure that we consider consuming those with the potentials for providing healing and reject every other. Do not think of nourishment only as what we take in through our mouths. What we consume with our eyes, our ears, our noses, our tongues, and our bodies also constitute the nutrients we feed on. Reasonable contribution and inputs that we occasionally deliver during the conversations we engage ourselves in on daily basis can only be possible by feeding on enriching and nourishing nutrients. We are not expected to neglect consistent consumption of healthy food both emotionally, physically and spiritually because they help in making us modern versions of the mind edifice that guarantees the indemnification of moral sanctity. Think about it this way. If moral sanctity blossom, the society will be filled with mo...

RENDER GOD HONOURING PRAISES TO JESUS CHRIST THE KING OF KINGS

It is pleasant to sing praises to the Most High God. He has won ten thousands of thousand through His word. His praise is comely. With my mouth will I praise the LORD of Host. His awesomeness is far beyond the comprehension of human imagination. O praise the LORD ALMIGHTY. Praise ELOHIM in the beauty of Holiness. Sing His praise for His glory extends beyond the reach of many waters. Praise Jehovah for He has saved generations. Generations of righteousness spring forth from Him. O praise the LORD of Lords. Heaven and earth is full of thy glory. O Most High, thou art highly exalted above all existence.  The Spirit and the Soul of the righteous are thine. Thine they are and none can deprive you of their ownership. Let God be praised and sing praises to the creator of Heaven and Earth even if individuals do not see the wonders which He has done. Sing praises to the LORD that makes invisible phenomena to become visible substances which makes souls to rejoice. The LORD is God. He is the ...

THE PURITY OF RAPTURABLE SAINTS

The word "rapture" connotes the catching up of both the dead and living saints who will ascend to meet the LORD Jesus at His coming in the air. The words of Jesus Christ, as recorded by John 14:2,3, clearly states "where I am, there ye may be also". Christ referred to the Heavenly city not the Earth as some false teachers erroneously teach. We must however note that the rapture is not going to involve sinners, backsliders, religious people or even reprobates but Saints only, whose garments are pure and white, made clean and bright by the blood of the sacrificial lamb (Jesus Christ). It is a great privilege to be called a child of God. Just as He has made available the redemption of mankind through the atoning blood of Jesus Christ, He also recognizes the penitent heart that comes to Him believing in the saving might of this precious blood. It is irrelevant whether the world denounces and refuses to recognize the efficiency of this wonder working blood of Christ. Wha...

At Noonday, O LORD, lighten my countenance with thy Love, in Jesus Name, Amen. • Make me to know the way w...

CLAIRVOYANT DISTINCTIONS OF GOD'S MAJESTIC OMNISCIENCE

Understanding God's word, as underscored in the King James Version of The Holy Bible, serves as the generic source of an uncanny wisdom which reveals the divine nature and attributes of God. Among these attributes is God's Majestic Omniscience which stands out to portray His infinite knowledge of all things that transpired even before the advent of time and space. Predominantly, His perception about the present conceives the predestination of futuristic events and occurrences. This article aims at delving into the clairvoyant distinctions of God's Omniscience while highlighting key verses from the King James Version of the Holy Bible that exemplify this Wisdom of His which was developed far before the existence of things ever came into being. The all-knowing nature of God surpasses human comprehension. Psalm 139:4 (KJV) beautifully articulates, "For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O Lord, thou knowest it altogether." This verse signifies that even befor...

THE INDISPENSABLE ROLE OF FORGIVENESS IN THE LIFE OF A SUCCESSFUL MOGUL

Forgiveness is a virtue that holds profound significance in the life of every individual, especially for success-driven moguls who desire to live a life that exudes godliness. It is as powerful as one could ever imagine. It enables us to maintain healthy relationships which fosters personal growth in a manner that ultimately impact this present world for positivism to take the lead. In the Holy Bible, forgiveness is extensively discussed with emphasis on its undeniable significance. This article explores the indispensable role that forgiveness play in the lives of success-driven moguls, elucidating how it influences godliness in consonance with the teachings found in the King James Version of the Holy Bible. First and foremost, forgiveness is inextricably linked to godliness. A godly mogul need to live-out the teachings of Christ, who exemplified forgiveness throughout his ministry, as a medium of satisfying the requirement for getting to Heaven. In Matthew 18:22, Peter approached Chri...

THE SACREDNESS AND BLESSEDNESS OF ABIDING IN THE SECRET PLACE

In the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, it is easy to feel overwhelmed, anxious, and spiritually drained. While we search for solace and Peace, we may sometimes find ourselves longing for something more. The ancient Scriptures, "He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty." found in Psalms 91:1, provides us with insight into the profound truth that exfoliates spiritual dryness by revealing the sacredness and blessedness of abiding in the secret place of the Most High God. It is in dwelling with God in the secret place that we find protection, provision, and intimacy with our Creator. The secret place does not necessarily need to be a physical location but an intimate connection with God Himself. It is a spiritual haven, a refuge where we can pour out our hearts and find solace in His divine presence. In Matthew 6:6, Jesus Himself implores us, saying, "But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when ...

FIRM CONVICTIONS THAT AFFIRMS THE UNSHAKEABLE ABILITIES OF GOD

Uncertainties abound in this world that is constantly changing. This makes it essential for a believer to have firm convictions and unshakeable faith in the abilities of God. The Holy Bible provides numerous references that reaffirms the place of conviction which serve as a guiding light in times of distress and uncertainty. One of the firmest convictions that affirms the unshakeable abilities of God is the belief in His omnipotence. In the book of Genesis, which states “And God said, Let there be light: and there was light” (Genesis 1:3), we are made to understand that God’s words are efficacious as to bring into fulfillment non-existent phenomenon, especially when He pronounces it. This simple statement demonstrates the boundless power of God. With a word, He created light out of darkness, illustrating His unlimited abilities to bring about change and transformation. Furthermore, the scriptures highlight God’s extraordinary ability to provide for His people. In the Gospel of Matthew,...

MODELLING YOUR LIFESTYLE AFTER CHRIST

The life of Jesus Christ serves is a perfect example for everyone desiring to fellowship with God in Heaven. As believers, we are called to imitate His teachings, mimic His behavioural pattern, and replicate His lifetime character in every aspect of our lives. When we model our lifestyle after Christ, we strive to be more like Him, showing love, humility, and compassion towards others. In this article, we will explore the importance of modelling our lifestyle after Christ and how we can achieve this based on the teachings and principles enunciated in the Holy Bible. First and foremost, Jesus Christ lived a life of selflessness. He was found to always consider others before Himself thereby prioritizing serving others rather than seeking personal gratification. In Matthew 20:28, it is written, "Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many." By serving others, we reflect Christ's nature and demonstrate His lov...

THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD THAT DEFIES IMPOSSIBILITIES

Being equipped with the knowledge of God's righteousness awakens an uncanny confidence especially in the hearts of His children. This understanding can not be misunderstood or even replaced by the uncertainty pervading our present day's society. Although many perceive righteousness as an unattainable feature, the possibility of possessing this unique quality of our heavenly Father lies within the realms of unwavering Faith in the Son of God. His blood has made dining with God an attainable standard that only a selected few can achieve. However, we are to ensure that our Faith in God is solidified by a corresponding believe that He is the rewarder of those that diligently seek Him. When this ultimately becloud out thoughts, only then will the powerful influence of the God that conquers all impossibilities take effect in our lives. The Holy Bible teaches us that God is righteous and just in all His ways. Psalm 145:17 declares, "The LORD is righteous in all his ways, and holy...

CHAMPIONING PRODUCTIVITY WITH FOCUS ON THE HEAVENLY GOAL

In today's fast-paced world, where the demands of work and life can seldom feel overwhelming, it can be very easy to lose sight of what truly matters. Productivity is often measured by the volume of tasks completed, the milestones achieved, and the goals actualised within a specific allotted time. However, despite the importance of being efficient and effective in our daily endeavours, it is crucial to remember the ultimate purpose behind our pursuit of productivity as Christians– the heavenly goal. The King James Version of the Holy Bible provides enormous wisdom which have proven to be valuable over time in our quest for productivity while keeping up with the heavenly goal. By incorporating the principles and teachings drawn from the scriptures into our daily routines, we can enhance our productivity within the divinely specified perspective. One essential principle emphasized in the Holy Bible is the importance of focusing on the heavenly goal rather than the pursuit of ephemera...

THE CHARGE TO ADVANCE PROGRESSIVELY IN RIGHTEOUSNESS

The world today is filled with chaos, injustice, and immorality but in the midst of these, our Heavenly Father is not tired of providing guidance and direction. His charge to us His children still remains to advance progressively in righteousness. The charge to live a righteous life is not a mere suggestion or a casual invitation, but rather a compelling mandate from the Creator of the universe. By adhering to God’s Word and seeking His guidance, believers can navigate the complexities of life while making significant contributions that proffer solutions that engender the advancement of a better life for the people living within our immediate environment as well as ultimately transformation of neighbouring communities in manners which typifies a magnificent grandeur of productivity in our world. The third person in the Trinity, specifically, the Holy Spirit, democratizes the freedom to access the divine truths deft enough to make a man wise unto understanding the intricacies of righteo...

HEARTY APPROBATION FOR GODLY OVERCOMERS

"Welcome thou faithful and righteous servant". These words, taken from the King James Version of the Holy Bible, will serve as commendation to those that overcome the trials and tribulations of this world and have remained steadfast in their faith while on Earth. The folks referred to here are those who remain grounded in their faith and exhibit the fruit of the Spirit. As we obviously navigate this tempestuous life, it is easy to loose focus, become discouraged and forget that Jesus Christ is our only connection to God. However it plays out, those who remain faithful to God, even in the face of adversity are living proof to the testament of His Power and non-discriminatory Love. It is this power of God that guarantees reassuring hope to His children entrusting their unwavering faith in Christ the mighty captain.  The Holy Bible is full of stories of overcomers who persevered through seemingly insurmountable obstacles and emerged victorious. Abraham, who left his home and fam...

ENLARGING YOUR COAST THROUGH THE ABRAHAMIC COVENANT

The Abrahamic Covenant, mentioned in several books of the Holy Bible, is an eternal agreement that holds immense promises and blessings for those who choose to follow God. In the book of Genesis, chapter 17, as recorded, God made a covenant with Abraham, saying, “I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee” (Genesis 17:6, KJV). This covenant outlines the extraordinary blessing bestowed upon Abraham and his descendants and sets the stage for many generations to fathom the possibilities of our coast enlargement through the everlasting covenant.  The assimilability of our coast enlargement through the everlasting covenant can be better ventilated by having a prior knowledge of its constituent composition. Biblically, expanding one’s coast may not necessarily be about the acquisition of more physical land or territory, but rather about broadening our influence, impact, and blessings beyond our existing boundaries. It is about e...

THE DETRIMENT OF COMPROMISERS DWELLING IN FALSEHOOD

The act of compromising is not the best especially when it comes to the Heavenly Kingdom, although it is often seen as a positive attribute in the modern society. People who are willing to meet in the middle and find common ground of agreement are occasionally viewed as peacemakers and mediators in the world. However, when compromise comes at the cost of reneging our stand for the truth in God’s word, it is very detrimental and its consequences can be damning if not repented of before the day of judgement. The act of dwelling in falsehood and lies peddled by the Devil is dangerous, both to the individual and to society as a whole. The Holy Bible warns against this type of behaviour and provides guidance on how to avoid it. Compromise in the Holy Bible does not have a positive effect but rather a negative one. In the book of Daniel, we see the story of three Jewish men who were commanded by Nebuchadnezzar to bow down to an idol which he did set up. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego refuse...

DINING AT THE MOUNTAIN OF GOD’S HOLINESS

“Seest thou a man diligent in his business? He shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men” (Proverbs  22:29). Dining at the mountain of God’s holiness is a serious business for every genuine believer. Regardless of whatever race he/she may have migrated from, what is expected of us as believers is “Be ye holy” because the LORD GOD(The Almighty) is holy. Just as it has been embedded in the Holy scriptures, we are all called into an intimate relationship with God. One whose origin is past finding out. This relationship in which we are called into is one that can very well be described as unfathomable. Considering the limitations of our frail reasoning faculty, we may decline into folly if we neglect spending time in prayer to this great and awesome God. Studying His word regularly, makes us acquainted with the nuggets of Holiness even while in the company of other believers. However savvy we may become, we can only strengthen our prowess in the shrewdness of God’s i...

THRIVING IN THE RETINUE OF GODLY CAMARADERIE

Man was created to be a social being, and it is only in the retinue of godly camaraderie that we can thrive and maximize our God given potentials. The apostle Paul in writing to the Corinthian church first wrote, “Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular” (1 Corinthians 12:27). This statement depicts the beauty of godly camaraderie where every believer plays a unique role as members of the body of Christ.  Godly Camaraderie is characterized by mutual trust, respect, and fellowship among believers who share the common goal, vision and purpose of winning the world for Christ. The Holy Bible affirms the importance of godly camaraderie in various verses, and one of the notable ones is Proverbs 27:17, “Iron sharpeneth iron, so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.” Just as iron sharpens iron, so also does every believer forged with the righteousness of God need other believers bought with the precious blood of Christ, to sharpen and help become that which Chris...
