Hebrews 1:7 (NIV) In speaking of the angels he says, “He makes his angels spirits, and his servants flames of fire.” There is a point you get to as a Christian where you're no longer commanding fire to come down; you ATTRACT FIRE, and you BECOME it!  Ever seen clothes, materials or substances written flammable? When you look at them, they look unassuming. You don't even think twice when you consid...

1 Peter 2:9 (KJV) 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; What a powerful scripture this is, praise God! Do you see what this is really saying brothers and sisters? Okay, let's break it down: God came looking for you specifically, by name, found...

Psalms 16:11 (KJV) Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. Christianity is not boring. Contrary to what the world thinks – a relationship with God is anything but boring!  Take another look at the scripture above. It says in the presence of God, you’re guided in every road you take – there are no mistakes. And it do...

John 14:15 (KJV) If ye love me, keep my commandments. Love is not as complicated as people think. Simply put, it's really backing up the affections you express with your words through your actions. When it comes to God, the proof of your love for Him is to  do  His Word; it’s to manifest His love, His character. His life and nature in you—His righteousness in you—not only makes right living possib...

1 Timothy 3:15 (KJV) But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.   The opening scripture for today indicates there is a certain type of behaviour we're expected to have in the house of God. It is a decorum that ought to be followed by all Christians. You see, we are ca...

1 Corinthians 15:4 (AMP) And that He was buried, and that He was [bodily] raised on the third day according to [that which] the Scriptures [foretold]. Despite all the arguments and debates concerning His divine nature, Jesus needed only three days to prove to His critics and naysayers that He was God incarnate; three days were all He needed to show the difference between His divinity and humanity,...

Philippians 4:6 (AMP) Do not be anxious  or  worried about anything, but in everything [every circumstance and situation] by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, continue to make your [specific] requests known to God. You need certain tools in the process of your formation through prayer. Remember, prayer is not for your information but for your formation. You need to understand that prayer goes...

Ephesians 1:13 (KJV) In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise. When Prophet Samuel anointed David as king of Israel, the Spirit of God came upon David (1 Samuel 16:1-13). In the New Testament, the Spirit of God is described as the Spirit with which we are sealed...

1 Corinthians 15:57 (KJV)   But thanks  be  to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. The potency of Christianity is found in power as the differentiator. Christianity is not a religion but a relationship with God. Religion aspires to reach out to God, fearing His anger. That is the dichotomy with Christianity, for we know we serve a loving, caring and merciful God who, in...

Luke 18:1   (KJV) And he spake a parable unto them  to this end , that men ought always to pray, and not to faint. Prayer is not for information but for your formation. Whilst the countries of the world base their population statistics on head counts, God takes a different approach. God records populations of cities and countries based on men of prayer! In a city of ten million, if only one millio...

2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV) I have fought a good fight, I have finished  my  course, I have kept the faith . Over the years of my walk with God, wherever I go, I have observed that many Christians are enthusiastic and energised from the very moment a call to prayer in the Church is launched. The first five to ten minutes can be fiery, full of power and passion. However, as the prayer time progresses, it i...

1 Kings 1:34 (NLT) There Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet are to anoint him king over Israel. Blow the ram’s horn and shout, "Long live King Solomon!"   There are luminaries in the realms of the spirit who captured what I term the technology of priesthood and used it to do exploits for God. They journeyed beyond the curtain of time to tap into another realm where they transformed spiritual...

1 Timothy 4:12 (KJV) Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. There is a time and a window of opportunity to plunge into your calling and impact your generation, and that time is now! We see footballers starting their careers at a tender age, knowing that by a certain age, that gift or talent will n...

2 Corinthians 4:7 (KJV) But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us. From ages past, God, in His infinite wisdom, decided to hide treasure. No other place seemed suitable, not inside diamonds, gold, or rubies, except in an earthen vessel called man! This clay vessel did not only carry treasure but "eternal life" (John 3:15).  The Gree...

Luke 7:8 (KJV) For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth  it . Jesus, who defied the viscosity of water and walked on it, the same Jesus who multiplied five loaves of bread and two pieces of fish and fed five thousand men, not counting children, marvelled at...

2 Timothy 2:3 (KJV) Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.   Paul, a steadfast apostle of Christ, shipwrecked severally, imprisoned for the Gospel, hazarded his life to take the Word of God to the furthest corner of the world. Indeed, he is qualified to admonish his spiritual son, Timothy, to endure "hardness" as a good soldier.   You can either choose to be a good sold...

2 Timothy 4:7   (KJV) I have fought a good fight, I have finished  my  course, I have kept the faith. One of the many characteristics of being a soldier is the aptitude to always be ready when called to duty. A good soldier's readiness for battle on any day, week, month, or year suggests that battle readiness or preparedness is a lifestyle. A soldier on the battlefield must be in a mode to kill or...

Jeremiah 51:20 (KJV) Thou  art  my battle axe  and  weapons of war: for with thee will I break in pieces the nations, and with thee will I destroy kingdoms. Imagine God—the One who sits in the circumference of Himself, the Almighty, the One who declares the end from the beginning—yes, the CEO of the universe searching for a weapon of war and picking you as His battle axe!  A battle axe is like a h...

Romans 4:20 (KJV) He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God.   Faith that does not waver is faith that triumphs. Abraham is a powerful example of unwavering faith. Romans 4:20 tells us that he "staggered not" at the promise of God through unbelief, which means he did not withdraw from what God said. Abraham did not allow circumstances or...

Matthew 19:26 (KJV) Jesus looked at them and said, With man this is impossible; but with God all things are possible. Nothing is impossible for those who are in the Lord! Don’t turn your focus to the left or to the right; set your sights solely on the Lord! No matter how weak and feeble you think you are, God has placed power on the inside of you to live above your circumstances!  Never allow your...

Romans 12:2 (NIV) Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing, and perfect will. The Kingdom of Heaven is likened to a man who sowed good seed, but while everyone was sleeping, an enemy came and sowed weeds among the man’s produce. This parable gets these comparisons be...

Luke 15:7 (KJV) I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance. From the senior pastors to the newest member of the congregation, you were called to win souls! In these end times, with all the distractions put in place by the devil to prevent God’s children from turning away from sin and bac...

1 Corinthians 14:10 (KJV) There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is without signification. The words you speak can make or break your future! The Bible tells us there is not one word that is without signification, yet many Christians can be found saying things that they do not realise may be causing them harm!  In the realm of the spirit, regardless of intent...

Genesis 1:28 (KJV) And God blessed them, and God said unto them, be fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the fowl of the air and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Produce and multiply! Whilst many people can only recognise this scripture within the context of Adam and Eve, this passage can be applied to a...

Psalm 30:11-12 (NLT) You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing. You have taken away my clothes of mourning and clothed me with joy, that I might sing praises to you and not be silent. O Lord, my God, I will give you thanks forever! There is celebration that has the power to produce results! Many problems faced by Christians today can be overcome through the power of praise and celebration. T...
