Did you know that LOVE is better than HATRED?

It may be easy to say "yes" to the above question especially by those practicing it but to others it may not. It is by far the best thing that has ever happened to mankind in general. The word LOVE brings people together. It connotes harmony and a peaceful coexistence. It promotes caring and sharing wherever it is found. It is in the dwellings of LOVE that TRUST is found. As Martin Luther King Jr. rightly equates LOVE with LIGHT, it brightens the countenance of those that cherish it.


Now the question that we need to answer is DO WE CHERISH LOVE?


If we value it as an exceptional phenomenon which must be accommodated, it will not be difficult for us to practice it. We must also remember that GOD is LOVE personified. If you love and cherish the God that created you, wickedness will be far from your thoughts. Whenever you discover that the thought to "deal drastically with the woman called your wife" if festering because she made a little mistake, then you must remember that LOVE has escaped from your heart. But whenever you turn to God and say "Dear LORD, I have come to you because I discovered this disgusting attitude and character in my wife. Please, help me to take it away from her and polish her lifestyle and make it satisfying in thy sight, in Jesus name, Amen" just then will the LOVE grow, spring forth and bud while bearing fruit in million fold. This can also be applied to every situation.


Do not try to run away from God's presence when circumstances proof tough. Dare to take it to the LORD GOD in prayer. And as you do, you will reap the blessings that accompanies such act of faith in Jesus Name, Amen.

DO NOT DEPAIR

Having found out whom God is... DO NOT DESPAIR TEXT: PSALM 13:1-6 Key verse: “How long wilt thou forget me, O LORD? for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?” (Psalm 13:1) . Life throws up new challenges every day. This often makes the believer begin to think that God had abandoned him. Except he rouses himself up, he would become discouraged and lose all hope that help would ever come to him. David got to that point many times in his numerous battles in life. He probably prayed and fasted for long periods, but the onslaught of the enemy did not end. He was running out of options, hence he spoke in desperation to God. He seemed to conclude that He had forsaken him and wondered how long God would hide himself, and how long he was going to be abandoned to himself, getting ever more sorrowful daily. He was troubled that the enemy seemed to be triumphing over him; ...

NO SHORTCUT

If it is to be done aright, be rest assured that there is... NO SHORTCUT BELIEVERS' DIGEST PUBLICATION Bible Reading: 1 KINGS 15:16-24 Key Verse: “There is a league between me and thee, and between my father and thy father: behold, I have sent unto thee a present of silver and gold; come and break thy league with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me” (1 Kings 15:19). Men always seek shortcut to success in life. Rather than live by God’s righteous standard, they seek to achieve success by any means possible. They justify their action by arguing that the end does indeed justify the means. This is despite their moral failings and character flaws, all of which contravene God’s expectations from His children. Such was the beginning of the end for King Asa, who had begun well to rule Judah and had introduced gr...

A GEM OF SPECTACULAR INFLUENCE

WINNERS' INTEREST PUBLICATION A GEM OF SPECTACULAR INFLUENCE Bible Reading: 1 Samuel 3:19-21 (KJV) Key Verse: “And Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him, and did let none of his words fall to the ground” (1 Samuel 3:19). The world, in which we live today is filled with corrupting influences. This forms the basis of God's call to His people to rise as rare treasures of purity and power. A “Gem of Spectacular Influence” is not an ordinary person. It describes a believer whose life carries unique, enduring value that transcends fleeting worldly trends. Like a precious gem that retains its brilliance even in darkness, such a life reflects resolute determination to pursue excellence in glorifying God, undimmed by surrounding negativity. The story of Samuel powerfully illustrates this truth. Raised in the tabernacle at Shiloh under the aged priest Eli, Samuel was surrounded by evil practices. Eli’s sons, Hophni and Phinehas, were notorious for ...
