Nicodemus saw the LIGHT - and moved towards Him. He crawled out of his holes at night to meet the Master Jesus. He was no longer held captive by grave-clothes and napkins.

"Have you received the Holy Ghost?", Apostle Paul cried out to the saints at Ephesus. It is the Holy Spirit alone that can un-bind the gravely clothes restricting our hands and feet, and eyes. Receive ye, today the fresh breath of GOD!

Before you blindly want out of a system in which you have found yourself, do God and you a favor today: Seek God in prayer, asking, "God, WHY did you place me in this family, country, company - or situation?"

Paul finished well the course of the Gospel that the Holy spirit had assigned him. He called the elders of the church at Ephesus together to Miletus, and charged them. You too will finish well IF you take to heart, the few points that Dr. Joseph has made mention of in today's podcast.

Paul engaged another gear when he saw "divers of the crowds" at Ephesus: become hardened, disbelieve and slandered the Christian message - and possibly the messengers and his co-workers. It is the same that you should engage anytime you encounter these SIGNS in any of your endeavors.

Some of you have heard the call of the Lord for the ministry whilst you're still in pursuit of your secular calling/education. Listen to what Dr. Joseph has to share with you in today's Man2MEN podcast. It will make a whole new difference to your life.

Paul at Ephesus found 12 disciples who were offshoots of John the Baptist who had no knowledge of the Holy Spirit, and he bagn to firmly place his seal of teaching ministry upon their lives. Such as you too would need to do to affirm your identity in Christ Jesus.

Find a ministry-collaborator; a partner, a group/team of people of same mind, same likeness with whom you would work hand in hand to make your work grow.

If you don't bow to the little tiny demonic pulls of gods or images vying with your worship of God, you will not bow to the humongous image, the caricature of the AntiChrist erected by Nebuchadnezzar.

God deposits in you in trining season, equipping you for the task ahead. There will be a period your gift will be in demand. Wait for that time. It's coming! And when your time comes, you sieze the opportunity.

Not only did the four Hebrew teenagers purposed holiness, they made their requests known to God and Ashpenaz. The rest was history. Do the same today.

Let us in this month of July anticipate the God's deliverance through our observance of Godly traits as found in these four young children of Judah.

Signs to help you realize that you've reached the Promise Land, and the signs that reveal that you've started journeying onwards south, away from the land of Promise!

Don't you ever let anything gore you out of the land of promise, the land of Canaan. Stay fit. Stay focused. Stay tight in faith so that you may inherit the Promise.

Bog downs: All too common! These prevent us from inheriting the promises of God, and enetering the promised land! What are your bog-downs today? God wants to work with you through these to inherrit His promise!

God predestinated, called, justified, and glorified. The end-result of God's calling in glorification!

Others of Paul's instructions to timothy included: 1. No strife; 2. Continuance in the doctrine that you have been taught from youth; and 3. Respect ALL people - old women and men, take as you mom and dad; and younger women and men treat as sisters and brothers.

You may need to physically take to your heels to escape temptations. "Run, baby; RUN!" Paul was admonishing his son, Timothy.

Young or old, you need the power of focus to achieve and realize your goals!

Not only did Paul appoint young Bishop Timothy the official of the Church at Ephesus, he also found Titus as his trouble-shooter at Crete to sort out the wanting parts of the work of the LORD. We must be part of a progressive, passionate team to make indelible impact!

Timotheour or Timothy met Apostle Paul as a young man. Haters in Derbe and Lystra and Corinthi were waiting on the Apostle to produce his team. Paul took disciple Tim, and added him to his team. He spoke his life's existence to being. Are you allowing haters to break you today?

What does the AntiChrist do to Earth's dwellers? Learn with Dr. Sammy Joseph as he pinches a few grains of salt from the Word of God.

What are the Antichrist's middle-names? Oh, the Holy Scriptures explained to us in many revelations to God's prophets. Let's have a closer look at some of these from 2 Thessalonians 2

The Word of God soundly teaches about the coming of the AntiChrist. Now, let's delve deeper into his mention in 2 Thessalonians 2.
