10M ago
Humility is self-awareness,awareness of our fallibility, awareness of our human proclivities and our need for salvation.And salvation embodies a profound understanding of the human condition and our inherent struggles. It acknowledges that as humans, we often find ourselves trapped in patterns of self-destructive behaviour, misguided desires, and harmful tendencies. Whether it be our tendency toward selfishness, pride, greed, and the likes. Recognising the need for salvation begins with humility, a humble acknowledgment that we are not perfect beings and that we are susceptible to making mista ..read more

Trust in God

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.” Proverbs 3:5 Trusting God can be very easy in seasons of plenty but challenging during difficult times.When we face challenges or when things don’t go according to plan, our level of trust and confidence in God is put to the test. Little wonder the wise one needed to remind us that trust is essential if we want to live a fulfilling and meaningful life. Trusting in God means putting our faith in Him completely. It means acknowledging that we don’t have all the answers and that we need His help to navigate through l ..read more

Praise is Pleasant

Hallelujah! How good it is to sing praises to our God, for praise is pleasant and lovely. Psalm 147:1 How good is it really to praise God? If the psalmist said it is a pleasant thing to do, we may ask, pleasant for who? For the praised or the one that praises, that is God or man? Singing praises comes from a grateful heart, it comes out of joy and deep appreciation of gift or service received. So, that is what makes praise pleasant, because it naturally comes from a place of joy and happiness. And so Christians should be God’s praise singers at every opportunity because God indeed gladdens our ..read more

The year 2022 is about to draw to a close and it is a time to take stock of our journey so far. One certainty about the year 2022 is that God has been faithful, he has kept to all his promises to his people. He remains unfettered about keeping future promises.

His promises to never leave nor forsake his children was fulfilled, his promises to make all things abound towards his generous children was fulfilled, his promise to provide for his children was fulfilled. All his promises for his peop ..read more

The Ministry of Reconciliation
Made Perfect In Weakness
by U. Bassey
1y ago
The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom and the knowledge of the fear of God elicits the desire to persuade others to obtain same knowledge. For it is borne out of the love of God. The kind of love that compels us through conviction to share with others that which we have freely received. The conviction is that of the dead of Christ for all. A substitutionary death in place of everyone who, as a result of the human condition stood condemned to death. But Christ became that substitute, that none should die again because he took that death upon himself. That was the ‘payment’ for sin. When we ..read more

Jesus, Highest Heaven’s Completeness

Jesus, highest heaven’s completeness, Name of music to the ear, To the lips surpassing sweetness, Wine the fainting heart to cheer. Eating Thee, the soul may hunger, Drinking, still athirst may be; But for earthly food no longer, Nor for any stream but Thee. Jesus, all delight exceeding, Only hope of heart distrest; Weeping eyes and spirit mourning Find in Thee a place of rest. Stay, O Beauty uncreated, Ever ancient, ever new; Banish deeds of darkness hated, With Thy sweetness all bedew. Jesus, fairest blossom springing From a maiden ever pure, May our lips Thy praise be singing While eterna ..read more

Becoming One with God

But now in Christ Jesus, you who were far away have been brought near by the blood of the Messiah. For He is our peace, who made both groups one and tore down the dividing wall of hostility. Ephesians 2:13-14 In time past, Gentiles did not know God for several reasons. One reason was cultural: Jews who knew God had rituals, feasts, and ceremonies that distinguished them from the nations. Another reason is racial, the Jews could boast of having the blood of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob flowing in their veins whereas the Gentiles could not. But through Christ these two groups of people have become ..read more

THAT I MAY KNOW HIM AND THE POWER OF HIS RESURRECTION
Made Perfect In Weakness
by U. Bassey

The knowledge of God is truly essential to all humans. For the Christian, we can say that we know him. Although our level of knowledge is different from person to person. The Apostle Paul was one who knew God and Christ at a very personal level. The Lord appeared to him and spoke to him upon his conversion; he also had many experiences of divine guidance. So, he is an example of one who KNEW the Lord. But beyond this, Paul knew much more. He knew that knowledge puffs up (1 Cor 8:1-2). One can become proud because of the knowledge that he or she has been able to acquire, including the knowledge ..read more

God makes all things beautiful in their time

He has made everything beautiful in its time. He also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from the beginning to the end. – Ecclesiastes 3:11 In designing everything, God made sure that each work of his creation is beautiful for its time and purpose. When he had finished creating everything, he looked back and admired his work that he had carefully crafted. The psalmist said, “I am fearfully and wonderfully made”, we all are. Another beautiful observation may be seen in the gospel of Matthew 6 when the scripture talks about adornment; that Solomon in all hi ..read more

He Promised ALL Things

In 2 Pet 1:3, the apostle Peter spoke of the divine power of God having given us ALL things that pertain to life and godliness. The apostle Paul echoed a similar message in his writing to the Romans in chapter 8 verse 32. He said that if God did not spare his own Son but gave him up to die for us, that he will also through his son give us ALL things. Little wonder Paul himself proclaimed that he could do ALL things through Christ who strengthens him when he wrote to the Philippians. The keyword throughout these statements is ALL. Not some, not many, not few but ALL things are promised. That is ..read more
