THERE IS JOY FOR THE CHILDREN OF GOD!

(TEXT : Psalms 5:11)
But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.

FOCUS :

God defends us even as we depends on His everlasting Joy that is unspeakable in our lives. Many at times we go through storms of life and the life in us most time seems not be enough to see us through the journey; however, glory be to God that we are unstoppable by the power of the Joy of God living inside of us. Sometimes, the enemies has literally taken everything from you a believer: your job is gone, your finance is bankrupt, your marriage is struggling with depression, your vision is delusion, your ministry doesn’t seems to be growing in grace and all things are not just seems right with you; but you still have JOY.

Job 13:15
Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.

In addition, the devil don’t know how to quit. And because of this, he is only after one single thing about you, and that is your Joy. Guide your Joy with all jealousy, because that is the only thing that matters the most in your earthly journey. It’s through your abundance of Joy that your salvation is sealed. Because when you are saved, whole lots of trouble, temptations, suffering, afflictions, and challenges will surely come your way; but in the midst of all these, the only thing that can keep you till the very last end it’s your JOY.

Psalms 48:2
Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King.

Psalms 113:9
He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the LORD.

Habakkuk 3:18
Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation.

2 Corinthians 8:2
How that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded unto the riches of their liberality.

Finally, even though we are going through too many problems at a time in the world today, the only reason some of us are still surviving all this “EVIL TIME”; it is simply because “WE STILL HAVE JOY.” Not all can withstand all that is happening at a time like this in all over the world; but the more our joy grew, the more we overcome the world. Many have died and many are still dying from depression because one way or the other, they lack Joy or misinterpret “Joy for Happiness.” Meanwhile, happiness it’s external which can last for just few minutes or even the whole day, and after all, you will still go back to your normal mood. However, Joy it’s internal, which comes from within and by subscription to it, it’s eternity. Let nothing steal your JOY from you!

Job 19:25
For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:

John 16:20
Verily, verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.

John 16:24
Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

PRAISE GOD AT ALL TIME: REASONS TO PRAISE GOD (PART 3)!

(TEXT : Psalms 66:8)
O bless our God, ye people, and make the voice of his praise to be heard:

FOCUS :

We have started this series since two days ago, and we have covered some reasons we should praise God. And as I begin to roundup on this series, I will like to inform us that It is only the living that can praise God here on earth. When we gets to heaven, we will be told how to praise God there. But for now, we are still here on earth. And as far as we are still living in this world, “let everything in us PRAISE GOD.

Psalms 150:6
Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.

In addition, today we move on to the next number; which is number six, praise God because you have your two legs still working and walking. Your two legs are your first means of transportation, if any of the two breaks down, then transportation will be expensive for your entire body. There is a popular saying that says: “a thousand journey begins with just a step.” Now, it is when you have your legs that you can think to start by taking a “single step” forward. However, if your legs are not functioning as they should, that means you are a “lame”, and if you are a lame that means the devil has planted a darkness in you. However, when you praise God vehemently, God will moved on your behalf and lift you up, so that you can walk into His “light and perfect praise.”

Acts 3:2, 6-8 And a certain man lame from his mother’s womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the temple; Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk. And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ancle bones received strength. And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.

Finally, number seven reason why we should praise God, it is because God gives us “sound sleep.” As little as this might sound, if you have tried it not to sleep for just one night, to some people the result will be that their BP will rise immediately, to some they will immediately start having serious headache and why to some they will just collapse. However, just for a few minutes imagine how many time you have slept and wake-up, and how many time you have denied yourself of sleeping and yet, you have no reason to be hospitalized. PRAISE GOD! Naturally, God gives all His beloved children “sound sleep”; and for this alone, our strength are renewed. So next time when you hear “PRAISE GOD, your response you should echo HALLELUJAH.

Psalms 127:2
It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep.

PRAISE GOD AT ALL TIME: REASONS TO PRAISE GOD (PART 2)!

(TEXT: Psalms 27:6)
And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.

FOCUS :

Yesterday, by the Grace of God we started the journey of this series. And we spoke about three reasons why we should praise God. Reason number one, because you are made in God’s image; number two, you are not sick; and why reason number three, you are not in the prison. These are the three point we discussed yesterday, and truly, we need to praise God for all these particularly, if God had been faithful to you in all these three aforementioned. Praising God gives you access to receive more from God, because whenever your praises goes up and it’s acceptable by God, surely blessings will be released upon you.

Psalms 148:14
He also exalteth the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye the LORD.

1 Peter 2:9
But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:

In addition, today, by the special Grace of God, let talk about other reasons why we should praise God. And on that note: let move to number four, praise God because you are not mad. You see, let me tell you the truth, it is not only those who are walking naked on the street or in the marketplace that are regarded as mad fellow. There are some people who are still living under our roof clothed with nice clothes, but they are moronic or lunatic. However, God has not allowed the plans of the enemies over you to run you made, you should praise God. Madness is not a good thing. There are many mad people around us who know no heat, when it’s sunny, when it’s rainy, who sleeps anywhere and eat and drinks anything. But your own case is not like that, PRAISE GOD.

Mark 5:2-9 And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him. And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones. But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him, And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not. For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit. And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.

Finally, number five, praise God because you are moving and not stagnant. You see, you might not have arrived where you wanted to be, but the truth is, you are not where you used to be. God has been faithful to you in many ways and moving you forward from one little journey to another. Compared to some people who are stocked and couldn’t move anywhere. Even though they are seeing, but they are either been afraid of taking step forward or they have been magnetized spiritually, emotionally or mentally. Praise God because you can move your body, you are in charge by the Grace of God of your own movement.

John 5:5-9 And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years. When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole? The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me. Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk. And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.

PRAISE GOD AT ALL TIME: REASONS TO PRAISE GOD (PART 1)!

(TEXT : Psalms 7:17)
I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high.

FOCUS :

In the next few days, we will be talking about Praising God. Because praising God brings Blessings to God’s own people; and bring absolutely nothing to those who ignores to praise God. There are many reasons in which we must praise God for; and if we praise God correctly, we will receive an unusual visitation by God. Number one, reason we should praise God: praise God because you are made in God’s image. Do you know that you could have been made as something different entirely, far from human beings, or perhaps, as an animal or beast? But it pleases God to have chosen you as a “human being” and not an “animal being.”

Genesis 1:26-27 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

In addition, number two, praise God because you are not sick. You see, when you visit the hospital particularly (general hospital), you will not be forced to praise God willingly. If you hear the ridiculous amount they are charging on single patient sometimes, you will just be wondering if the people hospitalized are the same human beings as you. There are some diseases that grammatically when you hear their names, that alone is enough to make one go bankrupt. But here you are walking around, driving around, working rigorously; and yet, you never breakdown nor being hospitalized. Praise God for this, because He has continuously be your “HEALER” with divine medications.

Exodus 15:26 And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee.

Mark 5:26-29 And had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse, When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment. For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole. And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.

Finally, let me stop with this three points today, and we will continue tomorrow if Jesus has not come. Number three, praise God because you are not in the prison. It is not all the people in the prison that are supposed to be thrown in the prison; because it is not all of them that are criminal. So, praise God because you are not in the prison. If anyone has ever been in the prison before and you know what it means to be free from the prison: “such person” when he or she gets out, praising God it is not a “metaphor but a realistic.” That is why, PRAISE GOD at all time; praise Him when you are bands and praise Him when you have your freedom in your hands.

Acts 16:25-26 And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them. And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one’s bands were loosed.

DON’T REGARD INIQUITIES IN YOUR HEART!

(TEXT : Psalms 66:18)
If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me:

FOCUS :

If you are holding any grudges against your brother or sister, that is iniquity and if iniquity is found in you; the Lord will not hear your prayers. You see, why the devil is pushing you never to forgive the brother or sister that offended you? No wonder you have been praying, fasting and moving from one mountain to another and yet; no “Greenlight” on all your request only Red light as response to your prayers.

Matthew 6:12,14,15
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

In addition, unforgivness its like iniquity regarded in one’s heart and God will not want to have anything to do with you. I know it’s very hard sometimes to let go and forgive, but learn to forgive anyone who has wronged you, it is the best way to live again. When you forgive, It’s like you opening the “door heart of God” to pour you His devine blessings, favour, breakthrough, and joy. It’s impossible that you will live in the midst of “people or human beings” and you will not be offended; that is why you must be preparing and trained your heart to always be ready to forgive and to always let go.

Daniel 9:9
To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgivenesses, though we have rebelled against him;

Finally, unforgivness its a bondage and the only way to free yourself is to forgive quickly, no matter how hard it hurts. God will not answer your prayers if your heart is so bitter and heavy against your brother or sister. Meanwhile, you have to understand that you are not forgiving the fellow who has offended you because they deserved it, NO! Rather, you are forgiving the fellow simply because you want God to answer whenever you pray to God. Don’t allow anyone to robb you of your “Divine Blessings, Favour, and Breakthrough. Forgive quickly so that you can receive from God quickly.

Psalms 32:1
Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.

Psalms 130:4
But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.

GODLY COUNSELS BRINGS SAFETY!

(TEXT : Proverbs 24:6) For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellors there is safety.

FOCUS :

When a man that is Godly seeks for counsels from those who have the knowledge of God in them, that man will be in safety hands all the days of his life. Godly counseling are always available for those who are seeking after Him, and with this counsel directed from God, the fellow will never perish. Because he will be dwelling in the secret place of God.

Psalms 91:1-2 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

In addition, the kind of counsel you seek for will determine your behavior, attitude and character in your day-to-day life. A right counsel for instance, will give you a right directions, corrections, instructions and with all these mentioned; that will exposed you to the wisdom of God without struggle. God has positioned His “daughters and sons” available to give you God’s rightly counsel; and which is directly from His Thorne, but are you willing to submit and receive?

Judges 18:5
And they said unto him, Ask counsel, we pray thee, of God, that we may know whether our way which we go shall be prosperous.

Judges 20:18
And the children of Israel arose, and went up to the house of God, and asked counsel of God, and said, Which of us shall go up first to the battle against the children of Benjamin? And the LORD said, Judah shall go up first.

Judges 20:23
(And the children of Israel went up and wept before the LORD until even, and asked counsel of the LORD, saying, Shall I go up again to battle against the children of Benjamin my brother? And the LORD said, Go up against him.)

Finally, submit to the authority above you to receive His or her counsel, and you will end up doing exploit in the journey of life. God has not placed that authority over you by mistake, He did so for a purpose and that purpose becomes “power” that can contribute to your journey of success. The journey to the top in the ministry comes with price and with steady counseling. Moses gave himself to God counsel, and he passed the mantle to Joshua; who is your own counsellor?

2 Samuel 15:12, 31 And Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David’s counsellor, from his city, even from Giloh, while he offered sacrifices. And the conspiracy was strong; for the people increased continually with Absalom. And one told David, saying, Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom. And David said, O LORD, I pray thee, turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness.

2 Samuel 16:20, 23 Then said Absalom to Ahithophel, Give counsel among you what we shall do. And the counsel of Ahithophel, which he counselled in those days, was as if a man had enquired at the oracle of God: so was all the counsel of Ahithophel both with David and with Absalom.

2 Samuel 17:7, 11, 14 And Hushai said unto Absalom, The counsel that Ahithophel hath given is not good at this time. Therefore I counsel that all Israel be generally gathered unto thee, from Dan even to Beersheba, as the sand that is by the sea for multitude; and that thou go to battle in thine own person. And Absalom and all the men of Israel said, The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better than the counsel of Ahithophel. For the LORD had appointed to defeat the good counsel of Ahithophel, to the intent that the LORD might bring evil upon Absalom.

GREAT SIN REQUIRED GREAT MERCY!

(TEXT : Deuteronomy 32:39-40)
See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand. For I lift up my hand to heaven, and say, I live for ever.

FOCUS :

God will always be God and He will always have mercy on anyone He is well pleased with. When the whole world committed a great sin through a single man (Adam); the whole world needs just a greater mercy from God to take away their sins. And God did, by sending His precious one and only begotten Son (Jesus) for the atonement of the “great sin” of the world. If Jesus had not come as “Great Mercy of God” to plead for the sins of the world, the whole world would have been doomed. Even so, while we have the “Great Mercy of God” in our midst, the whole world still choose to humiliate Him and take the Great Mercy of God for granted. Sometimes, the world are desperate for Great Mercy of God for their great sins: however, in their hearts, souls, spirits and minds; they are far from following the will of God.

John 3:14-19 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

In addition, in the time of Moses, at first he was seen as a man that God speaks with “mouth to mouth;” and which God never stop enjoying the conversation and fellowship with him. Even though Moses was found in the midst of rebellion, disobedience, and stiffneck people; and with this pressure and frustration on daily basis this led Moses to commit GREAT SIN against God. Not that he wishes to commit this Great Sin, but when you mixed old win with the new win, the result sometimes will be useless, testless, and horrible.

Numbers 20:11-13 And Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote the rock twice: and the water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their beasts also. And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed me not, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this congregation into the land which I have given them. This is the water of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove with the LORD, and he was sanctified in them.

When you look at this history from verses 3-5: you will find in the account that it was the children of Israel that chode Moses and with this single act, this led to frustration and frustration led to “Great Sin” for Moses before God. I would think if God had to punish anybody on this account, it should be the children of Israel and not Moses. But very unfortunate, Moses had to pay dearly for the Great Sin, the children of God made him to commit. But do you know that God shown Moses His Great Mercy by not allowing him to entered into the promised land but take him to heaven by himself? Yes, He did! Simply because God knew that if this same man I have watched to lead this generations of my people from Egypt could be frustrating Moses every single day (in the land of Egypt) and throughout their journey in the wilderness, they will frustrate him even the more in the promised land, if he should entered with them. Not that this Great Sin can’t be forgiven by God, and of course, it has been forgiven (within God’s own mind); but allowing Moses to enter into the promised land with the children of rebellion, disobedience and stiffneck people: this will lead Moses to commit another terrible and great sin inside the promised land with all this people frustrating him day and night.

Exodus 2:12-14 And he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man, he slew the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand. And when he went out the second day, behold, two men of the Hebrews strove together: and he said to him that did the wrong, Wherefore smitest thou thy fellow? And he said, Who made thee a prince and a judge over us? intendest thou to kill me, as thou killedst the Egyptian? And Moses feared, and said, Surely this thing is known.

Numbers 12:6-8 And he said, Hear now my words: If there be a prophet among you, I the LORD will make myself known unto him in a vision, and will speak unto him in a dream. My servant Moses is not so, who is faithful in all mine house. With him will I speak mouth to mouth, even apparently, and not in dark speeches; and the similitude of the LORD shall he behold: wherefore then were ye not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?

Finally, Deuteronomy 32:49-51 Get thee up into this mountain Abarim, unto mount Nebo, which is in the land of Moab, that is over against Jericho; and behold the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel for a possession: And die in the mount whither thou goest up, and be gathered unto thy people; as Aaron thy brother died in mount Hor, and was gathered unto his people: Because ye trespassed against me among the children of Israel at the waters of Meribah-Kadesh, in the wilderness of Zin; because ye sanctified me not in the midst of the children of Israel.

The sin striking the Rock the second time instead of speaking to it, as the Lord commanded, was actually a grievous sin. The Rock typified Christ, who would be smitten at Calvary and, from what He would do at the Cross, a life-giving stream would pour forth for thirsting humanity. To turn and strick the Rock again at a later time, in essence, spoiled the type, which, in effect, said that the Cross of Christ, regarding its Sacrifice, was insufficient. In other words, it was a repudiation of the Cross, which, no doubt, Moses did not intend to do. But nevertheless, it was done.

Deuteronomy 32:52 Yet thou shalt see the land before thee; but thou shalt not go thither unto the land which I give the children of Israel.

However, Moses might not have made it to the promised land with the children of Israel, but he saw it ahead of them. And with proof and believe Moses GREAT SIN has seems to have obtained GREAT MERCY of God; and has been taken to Heaven even while the children of Israel are still wondering about in the promised land.

Matthew 17:1-3 And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light. And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.

Jude 1:9 Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.

BROTHERLY LOVE!

(TEXT : Hebrews 13:1)
Let brotherly love continue.

FOCUS :

In a tough time like this when terrible things are happening in everywhere we turned; it’s obvious that all we need is each other to survive. As brothers and sisters (in love), we are both on a mission assignment here on earth, and on this mission it is a battlefield. Your brother or sister will be wounded and sustain many fractions, bruise and damages all over. At this point, your brother or sister at the battlefield needs your help to get back on his or her foot. We might not have this same colour of skin or speak the same language, talk the same way, thinks the same way, have the same status, or eat and drink the same way as brothers and sisters; but the truth is, our BLOOD is from the “same source” and that is the secret in our DNA. If your brother or sister falls, raise him or her up and stop looking down on them.

Proverbs 18:19
A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle.

In addition, the brotherly of the old and the apostles are those who we should be emulating on this path of our FAITH. The road to heaven it’s very narrow, but you will always need a brother or a sister that will keep your FAITH steady alive on this path. Nobody is useless, or worthless; in the body of Christ, we are useful, impactful and very important in the sight of God. We all need each other to survive any physical, spiritual, financial, emotional, ministerial business and even marital (storms), challenges and temptations. The brotherhood of the old, were found busy “breaking breads” from one house to another knowing fully well that they are in one accord to fulfill one common goal and with single mindset of achieving one mission.

Acts 2:42, 46 And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart,

Acts 6:1-7 And in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplied, there arose a murmuring of the Grecians against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration. Then the twelve called the multitude of the disciples unto them, and said, It is not reason that we should leave the word of God, and serve tables. Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business. But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word. And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch: Whom they set before the apostles: and when they had prayed, they laid their hands on them. And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great company of the priests were obedient to the faith.

Finally, in the body of Christ today, some brothers are for Apollo, some sisters are for Paul, and some are for Cephas or Christ. Why the division amongst the body of Christ today? We are meant to be strengthing one another in a time like this and not otherwise. Some brothers and sisters are “weak” (physically, spiritually, emotionally, materially, financially, ministerial, maritally, mentally, and academically under our watch and yet, we behave ourselves as if nothing has happened to them. Stop exposing your brothers and sisters to danger, you are suppose to be covering their nakedness; and that is what brothers and sisters in the Lord do for each other.

1 Corinthians 1:12-13 Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ. Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?

1 Thessalonians 4:9
But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.

WHERE IS YOUR BROTHER?

(TEXT: Amos 1:9)
Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Tyrus, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they delivered up the whole captivity to Edom, and remembered not the brotherly covenant:

FOCUS :

There are so many people around you today who their relationship with you is to totally bring you down to absolutely nothing. There are many brothers who does not know the condition of their brothers; because they didn’t bother to check on them. God is asking you today, where is your brother? You are well fed but your brother is out there hungry and you know this, but you have decided to take your eyes off from such matter.

Romans 12:10
Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another;

2 Peter 1:7
And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.

In addition, some your brother is half naked due to lack of no clothes, but here you are with many that you are even flummoxed on which one to put on for the each days; but your brother is half naked and without shoes. Haven’t you read in the scripture that “as you bring nothing to this world, you will certainly take nothing back to heaven?” Simply because we are all made from the DUST, in the dust we will all return someday. Why do you find joy in seeing your brother roaming about on the street without shelter, food, clothes, medical attention, and financial assistant; and all you do is to act as if that doesn’t matter to you?

Proverbs 18:24
A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.

Proverbs 27:10
Thine own friend, and thy father’s friend, forsake not; neither go into thy brother’s house in the day of thy calamity: for better is a neighbour that is near than a brother far off.

Ecclesiastes 3:20 All go unto one place; all are of the dust, and all turn to dust again.

Finally, nobody knows what tomorrow is holding for one another. It can hold peace, joy and prosperity for you today; please, remember your brother/sister who needs your help desperately out there. Because you do not know what will become of that your brother tomorrow. A brother you do not show concerned about or helped today, won’t recognize you tomorrow when the table has finally turned around for good in his own favour too. And of course, when we talk about (brothers here) we are equally also talking about sisters too. Be a reliable one to your brother\sister, a compassionate one to your brother/sister, an exquisite one to your brother/sister, a loving one to your brother/sister and a giver to your brother/sister always. If you fail to help your brother in the time of needs, his blood will be required of you when it is time.

Genesis 4:9-10 And the LORD said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother? And he said, I know not: Am I my brother’s keeper? And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother’s blood crieth unto me from the ground.

GOD IS NOT EVIL!

(TEXT : Ecclesiastes 3:14)
I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.

FOCUS :

Whatever God has done and that He is still doing in our present lives, it can only mean one thing; and that means that, “God is good all the time.” God does not change and He has never plan to change; because He was, He is, and He is forever. Can you imagine the earth we are both living on, it’s like a ball rolling without nothing holding it up; I mean, this is super amazing. Whatever God does, it is forever and it needs no approval of anything of anybody before it can be implemented. The power of God alone creates fear, His love creates compassion, His Spirit (Holy Spirit) creates comfort and fellowship.

In addition, God is unquestionable and the unchangeableness of God’s actions and purpose awaken reverential fear, holy, love and worship. The Bible says: “God sits in heaven and do whatever that pleases Him”; another one says: “He that sit in heaven shall laugh.” Imagine yourself trying to crack your little brain on how God come into existence or predicting in your philosophy “eclectic”; who, how or what God can be? God is sitting in heaven and He is just giggling.

Psalms 2:4
He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision.

Psalms 115:3
But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he hath pleased.

Finally, there are many ways in which you can understand the character of God. And these are: you fear Him with all your heart, soul mind, spirit and even in your body; worship God in the “spirit and in truth”, this is more or less you communicating with God even in your physical body; and the other last one which I will like to mention is holiness, this is the key factor of the whole creation in all generations. There is absolutely nothing that God has created that has not come from His “HOLINESS”; because our God is a “TRANSPARENT GOD.” He called for light out of the dim of darkness, and the light is very beautiful to behold; and you are now the LIGHT.

Psalms 52:6
The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:

Matthew 5:14-16 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

John 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
