The Sinner And Saint Swap

Image
  Sinner And Saint Swap Ezekiel 18:21,24 "But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die. But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath sinned, in them shall he die." Let us put things right. Once a saint, does not guarantee that one will remain a saint. There must be a continuation of the things that keeps one a saint.  Hebrews 10:26 "For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,..." Wilful sinning by the saint will make him loose his or her place. For the sinner coming to repentance from sin to righteousness, h...

Success For The Saint

Image
 Success For The Saint Psalms 118:24-25 "The LORD has done it this very day; let us rejoice today and be glad. LORD, save us! LORD, grant us success!' The above prayer is typical of the average saint: "LORD, save us! LORD, grant us success!' The saint of God is conscious of his or moves to be approved by heaven. Success to the saint of God is part of the whole package to fulfill God's purpose and will. Infact, the will of God is the target for success. Since success is preconceived, the saint of God is said to be successful if the will of God is known before hand and when it is fully achieved, the saint is said to be successful. One of the predetermined will of God is for the saint to be like Jesus. This is success! 1 John 4:17 "Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world." Once we become like Jesus in life and walk with God, we are successful. The saint may get all the rich...

Success For The Sinner

Image
  Success For The Sinner Job 6:13 "Do I have any power to help myself, now that success has been driven from me?" Generally, success can be understood as the achievement of a desired goal, the fulfillment of an objective, or the realization of one's ambitions. It is often associated with a sense of accomplishment, progress, or favorable outcomes in various aspects of life. However, success is not solely determined by external markers such as wealth, status, or recognition. It can also encompass internal factors such as personal growth, happiness, fulfillment, and the alignment of one's actions and values. Success is a multifaceted concept that can encompass different dimensions of life, including career, education, relationships, health, personal development, and contribution to society. Note that success is a journey and not a destination. It involves setting meaningful goals, working towards them and making adjustments until the end result is achieved. Questions we ...

Trace The Old Way

Image
 The word of God is new every morning. Ever fresh from the first day it was published in another platform 1st January 2022. Trace The Old Way Ecclesiastes 1:9-10: "The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us." Happy new year. In this year, it shall be well with you. Some things will come by surprise. Some will come as if it has never happened in that manner before. Take note, learn to calm down and in the sanctuary of your heart, learn to hear God speak. By this i.e. constantly communing with God, you will be amazed by the success you will achieve in the year. You will be taken by surprise. You will have a need. You will need rest. You will need explanation. You will need provision. You will need protection. God will be your source through the year. One thing tha...

Ministry To The Saints

Image
 Ministry To The Saint 2 Corinthians 9:1 'For as touching the ministering to the saints, it is superfluous for me to write to you:.." Paul the apostle emphasized severally the need for the saints of God to minister one to another. He saw it needful to repeat the emphasis on ministering to the saints. Having in mind that the saints are they that have been ministered to and converted from sinners or sinful way of living to sainthood to serve the Lord. They are not abandoned and left to be on their own. It is through ministering to the saints that progress and growth is achieved. Spiritually stunted growth is traceable to unhealthy ministry to the saints. A saint may work hard to get sinners converted while he or she is depleted of grace. When the saint have nothing to offer, he or she starts sinking (spiritually, emotionally and psychologically speaking). The benefit of ministering to the saints is great and must not be underestimated. While different groups of the body of saint...

Ministry To The Sinner

Image
 Ministry To The Sinner Psalms 25:8 "Good and upright is the LORD: therefore will he teach sinners in the way." The sinner is one who breaks the law(s) of God simply because of disobedience or lack of knowledge of the liberating power of God and the finished work of Christ Jesus on the cross. A sinner is powerless to set himself or herself free from the power and clutches of sin thus the need of a mediator to reconcile the sinner back to God. This ministry of reconciliation to God was made possible by Christ on the cross of Calvary. We are brought into this ministry when we accept Jesus to be Lord of our lives. The sinner's chances of becoming a saint is enhanced when we accept to partner with God through Christ to reach out to the sinner. "...therefore will he teach sinners in the way." The sinner needed to be brought into the kingdom of God by an insider in the faith or by hearing the word of God. Faith for salvation from sin to Christ is activated by the word...

Sinner And Saint

  Sinner And Saint Ephesians 2:18-20 "For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father. Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God; And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;..." Who is a sinner? In many religious traditions, a sinner is generally defined as someone who has violated moral or religious laws. The specific acts or behaviors considered sinful in Christianity, for example, sin is often associated with actions that go against the commandments of God as spelt out in the Bible, such as lying, stealing, or committing adultery.  Who is a saint?   In Christianity, a saint is generally seen as someone who has lived a life of exemplary faith and virtue and is believed to be in heaven if dead. Saints are generally considered to be role models and intercessors, capable of interceding with God on behalf ...

BECAUSE THE LORD SO

Image
  Because The Lord Said So St. Matthew 1:18-20 "Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost. Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily. But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost." In life, there can be difficult decisions to make especially about relationships and money. The reason(s) to make any particular choice can be based on many criterias. People make decisions because majority of the people are making the same decision and in a bit not to be left behind, they make the same decision. Decisions can be made because a famous person made the same decision. Not minding what the final outc...

Every Man A Measure

Image
  Every Man A Measure St. Matthew 25:15 "And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey." Jesus taught many of his teachings in parables. By this, he gave his teachings some degree of depths and at the same time, only the serious minded gave attention to the lessons in the teachings. One such teachings was the parable of the talent. Parables are stories with deeper meaning. They make lessons taught to be easily understood. This parable in question is one among others about the kingdom of God. God gave gifts or talent or responsibilities to men, what becomes of the talent is up to them. No one is left out in the share of the talent. "...to every man according to his several ability..." One is given more than the other. There is no one left out. Whether big or small, every man (man or woman) was (and is) given according to his ability i.e. capacity. We will not be m...

IMPORTANCE OF REVELATION

Image
 Why The Revelation St. Matthew 1:22, 23: "Now all this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, "Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us." If the purpose of a thing is not known, abuse is inevitable. There is a lifestyle that is 'AS USUAL' and there is another lifestyle that is 'SUPERNATURAL'. The 'AS USUAL' life will do things to please or conform to the natural principle and laws while the lifestyle conform to the 'SUPERNATURAL' will do things to conform to the supernatural, spiritual laws and principles. You can never get supernatural results doing business as usual. God will bring you into the supernatural by revelation and unfolding of His plans. This is what happened before the birth of Jesus Christ. This is where parents should watch and take heed to what God is saying before the...

GIFTS FOR JESUS

Image
  Gifts For Jesus St. Matthew 2:1,10-11 "Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,.. When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy. And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh." What is a gift? A gift is something that is given to someone without the expectation of receiving anything in return.  Gifts can be a wonderful way to show someone that you care about them and appreciate them. There are many different types of gifts that you can give, and the best gift will depend on the recipient's interests and preferences. In general, gifts can be a meaningful and enjoyable way to express one's feelings and strengthen relationships with others. They can bring joy and happiness to both ...

WELL ADJUSTED IN GOD'S KINGDOM

Well Adjusted In God's Kingdom Romans 12:1-2 "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." For you to have any measurable success and peace of mind you need to know how to conduct affiars and consciously practice what works in your own peculiar situation. In God's kingdom, affairs are conducted by the word of God. The will of God concerning anything and everything (including everyone) is known by His word. Once the will of God is known, that will in question is accomplished by the grace that is available and comes by Him. The word of God has potential power to change any man from failure to success, from sinner to saint, from slavery to freedom, from bondage to salvation. To be well ...

THE DETRACTOR OF GOD'S KINGDOM

Image
  2 Corinthians 4:3-4 "But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them." Every kingdom has some way to maintain law and order. In some kingdoms, those who have taken lawlessness to the extreme are served with serious punishment. Orderliness is checked so that the kingdom can achieve a greater degree of success. The detractor(s) are brought to book by some form of enforcement. If not checked by law enforcement, disorderliness will reign in the kingdom. If checked, lawlessness is stopped and success can easily be attained. In God's kingdom, there is this lawless one who is bent on making disciples of as many as possible out of the faithful citizens of God's kingdom. The lawless one is called the devil. He will not stop until he has caused disorder and destroy the lives of many by ultim...

CARRYING THE PRESENCE OF GOD

Image
  Carrying The King's Presence Genesis 39:2 "And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian..." Prosperity and success does not come by accident. Men and women who acted according to specific rules and principles will meet success along their way. The domain any man operates will determine what rules governs his or her actions. Consistency in taking the right actions will trigger either success or failure. Success will come if the actions are triggered by responsible and tested principles. Failure will come when carelessness is put into play. One principle that will guarantee success in God's kingdom is the practice of 'GOD'S PRESENCE'. It has been proven time without number that consciously practicing God's presence brings success. True peace and happiness comes by knowing that God is able to do all things and by knowing how to walk with Him and for Him, a presence of God's glory will ...
