THE POWERFUL INTERVENTION OF JESUS CHRIST FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH IMPOSSIBILITY

The King James version of the Holy Bible is filled with numerous powerful interventions of Jesus Christ for individuals facing impossible situations. From healing the sick to raising the dead, His miraculous interventions have left a profound impact on countless lives. In this article, we will explore some of these interventions and the enduring lessons they offer those encountering impossibilities. One of the most known interventions of Jesus Christ is the healing of the paralyzed man. In Mark 2:3-12, we read about how a group of friends brought the paralyzed man to Jesus Christ, but the crowd was so large that they found it somewhat difficult to get him close. Undeterred by the negative situation in which they found themselves, they made a hole in the roof and lowered the man down to Jesus. Upon seeing their faith, Jesus said to the paralyzed man, "Arise, and take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house" (Mark 2:11). Instantly, the man was healed and walked out of the h...

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...

THE PREVAILING INTERCESSION OF JESUS CHRIST FOR SINNERS

When Jesus Christ was physically in this world, he made the remarkable aspect of His ministry to showcase His love, compassion, and desire for the salvation of mankind. In the book of Hebrews 7:25, it is written, "Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them." The prevailing nature of Jesus' intercession for sinners must not be interpreted for weakness because the LORD GOD has reserved a day in which He shall judge the entire world in righteousness(Acts 17:31). His compassionate nature must be viewed as a privilege to make amends and jettison all wrong doings. The concept of intercession is deeply rooted in the Old Testament, where Moses as the servant of God interceded on behalf of the people before God. However, with the coming of Jesus Christ, His intercession has a unique and powerful significance since he is our great High Priest(Hebrews 4:14). In the book of Romans 8:34, it sta...

GLOW WITH GOD'S SUFFICIENCY

In our world today, there maybe times when it seems like we don't have enough strength, wisdom or resources to overcome the trials that we encounter along our way to heaven. At such times as Christians, it is expected that we do not forget that we are not alone. Even in our struggles, Jesus Christ has assured us that "he is with us always even unto the end of the world" (Matthew 28:20). The LORD himself assures us of God's sufficiency in all things, and as we lean on Him, we can glow with His sufficiency in every aspect of our lives. In 2 Corinthians 12:9, the apostle Paul writes, "And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness." This powerful verse serves as an ointment of grace that greases the faith of all who remembers that even in times of weaknesses, God's grace is more than enough to sustain us. When we feel incapacitated or experience inadequate zest for the journey ahead, we can rest on the know...

AGILITY OF SUCCESS AND ITS CONGRUENT NUGGETS

In the similitude of constant change and predominant evolution, success is no longer just about achieving a set goal or reaching a particular milestone alone. Instead, it is about squaring up ones shoulders and brazing for the best while influencing others in the same perspective. Being agile and adaptable in the face of challenges and uncertainty very well defines the notion of achievers that will not succumb to obstinate perceptions of ostrobogulous and nefarious creatures. The agility of success is about being able to pivot, innovate, and thrive in the midst of change. It is about being resilient and resourceful, and finding new opportunities in the midst of adversity.   One of the essential aspects of success agility is resident in its ability to embrace progressively intertwined change steaming from God's presence. Agreeably, in an ever changing world gravitating towards the acclimatization of productivity which very well defines its the ability to adapt to new technologies, m...

CONFIDENCE IN THE PROMISED BREAKTHROUGH

It is best for us to know that even as we journey from Earth to Eternity, especially when the darkest of night tend to surround us; the bright light of the morning will come shining through. This proven reality becomes true when God steps into the equation. Now, let this be known, that God does not interfere with man's affairs but intervenes in man's precarious situation often to institute a positive turnaround specifically reinforcing our courage on manners that forestalls a beacon of hope while curating amazements. He sets these in array by introducing series of events to destroy the work of the Devil. While reaching out to us in His healing wings to uplift all who believe, he delivers from the debilitating effect of those dark moments. God declares to every believer that the perfection of His strength takes effect in our weaknesses (2 Corinthians 12:9). So, don’t be dismayed about that situation that you may have found yourself in this present moment, God’s offer in this New...

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...
