2 PETER 1:5-6 The fact I have been trying to establish since Monday is that, Character is a spiritual fruit that is built from a real, godly relationship and commitment to Christ. It is the fiber of our moral centre and stretches throughout our being, embracing and binding together our relationships, as a community, family, […]
2 PETER 1:5-6 One of the qualities that brought David to the limelight was his positive character. His courage and trust in God. He slayed Goliath, at the time his own brothers didn’t believe in him. ( 1 Samuel 17:28) David was a man of compassion, tender hearted and gentle in spirit. We see the […]
2 PETER 1:5-6 We all have the ability to be good or bad; to take what Christ has given us ( that is humility) and use it or ignore or even perverse it. This is not about reputation and ambassordorship in Christ. It is about how we must be, it’s about how we must fully […]
2 PETER 1:5-6 ( NIV) “FOR THIS VERY REASON, MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO ADD TO YOUR FAITH GOODNESS; AND TO GOODNESS, KNOWLEDGE; AND TO KNOWLEDGE, SELF-CONTROL.. It is said that; charisma, gift or talent will take one to a place, but CHARACTER will keep you there”. “Character is what you are in the dark” ( […]
2 THESSALONIANS 3:14 Many church leaders have abused the processes leading to church discipline. Even in civil government, there’s always room for people to make amends. The church is like a hospital, where people come to be treated of their ailments. “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick”.( Luke 5:31 […]
2 THESSALONIANS 3:14 Church discipline has always served as a formative and corrective means. Sound Biblical teachings and godly examples are two vital components with regards to the life of every true believer and thus; produces discipline in the body of Christ. Unfortunately, we live in a “fast food generation”, where Christians no longer want […]
2 THESSALONIANS 3:14 “IF ANYONE DOES NOT OBEY OUR INSTRUCTION IN THIS LETTER, TAKE SPECIAL NOTE OF THAT PERSON AND DO NOT ASSOCIATE WITH HIM, SO THAT HE WILL BE PUT TO SHAME”. The downward trend of church discipline is perhaps the most visible failure in modern day history. It is difficult to imagine what […]
2 CORINTHIANS 8:21 In our daily walk with God, we have decisions to make; whether it’s about how to handle money honestly, relating to people in our social circles or promises we make to people. Do you inflate figures as a purchasing officer just so you can later have your share? As an accountant, do […]
2 CORINTHIANS 8:21 “FOR WE ARE TAKING PAINS TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT, NOT ONLY IN THE EYES OF THE LORD, BUT ALSO IN THE EYES OF MAN”. One day a man was asked to build a house. It was a Three Storey Complex. The works supervisor ( foreman) had been working with the contractor […]
PROVERBS 4:23(KJV) The Hebrew word for; GUARD, (which is interchangeable with “KEEP”) literally means, “to set a watchman over it”. This means, believers must filter their emotions, desires, thoughts and responses with the word of God. “How can a young man (young woman) have his way pure? By guarding it according to your word”. (Psalm […]
PROVERBS 4:23( KJV) “KEEP THY HEART WITH ALL DILIGENCE, FOR OUT OF IT ARE ISSUES OF LIFE”. The heart is one of the human parts that has been mentioned in the Bible more than any other part. Without your heart, your body would cease to function. Infact, I dare say, the human heart is the […]
EPHESIANS 4:29 ( NIV) Many believers do not understand the word “MINISTER”. If people understand that, a Christian Minister is a “Servant”, they will not lord over people. To minister to someone means to serve the person. In most churches, people don’t see themselves as servants, they see themselves as “little gods”, who want to […]
