There are supposed Christians who are bombarded with the will/requirements of God through the introduction of doctrine. And there are others who set out to seek the will of God that they may follow after. The former feel burdened with the requirements of God and easily become rebellious. The latter are yielded to God and consequently come to a deeper appreciation of the will of God. Those who go a...

Anyone who will receive the blessing of the Lord (Divine Love and Wisdom) must first go through struggle. The struggle is initiated by approaching the light of the Word of God which is the agency of the blessing. The struggle becomes necessary because there are contrary desires and wisdoms initially with the person. The goal of the struggle is to give up the evils with us, which tend to deprive us...

What we desire determines how we relate with God and His Word. Those who love and seek God, by virtue of their freewill, submit their will and understanding to be filled with the Divine Love and Divine Wisdom respectively. To such, God becomes their God and they become proper men. Those who love themselves and the world, shut out the Lord by misinterpreting the Word in line with their carnal desir...

Many think they would be better off in their faith if they had encountered the Lord during His incarnation. As a result, they rate the material birth of God above His spiritual birth (the appearance of the Lord to the hearts of men). What they do not realise is that, because God is spirit, any form of manifestation of Him in the flesh veils his glory. That is why Jesus in His earth walk, emphasise...

Whatever the Lord would accomplish on earth, He requires a body (that which will express His will) for it to come to pass. Thus, the one who would be used by the Lord must first consecrate themselves to the Lord’s desires by yielding themselves in prayer till they are consumed in it. This goes beyond uttering of words, usually accompanied with groanings which cannot be uttered. In the message, “Th...

Jerusalem was known as the Holy city because of the presence of the temple, which represented the Word of God, in it. Since our worship is in our submission to the Word, Jerusalem was known as the place of worship. It was therefore the custom of the Jews to pray facing the temple within Jerusalem. Their facing the temple in prayer was indicative of their agreement to that which the temple represen...

When the Lord opens our eyes to understand His intentions, His intentions become our expectation (hope). It is this hope that drives the watchman into the place of prayer. Anyone that comes into contact with the revelation of the promised glory of the Lord’s church will have only one desire – to see it rest with men. In the message, "The Ministry of Intercession: The Hope Of The Intercessor", Past...

The one who lives the spiritual life in the earth comes to an understanding of truth, which makes them able to see. Such is the one who is awake and is called to be a watchman, i.e., an intercessor. They therefore have the ability to see what the Lord is up to and what is militating against it. This is what drives the watchman into prayer. In the message, “The Ministry Of Intercession: The Watchma...

Just as the Israelites always encamped around the tabernacle, so is the Lord’s church organised around the Word of God. In the Lord’s new church, it is the Word of God that is paramount. The spiritual sense of the Word, not the literal form. It is the reason why we gather as a church; it dictates how we gather and the course of our lives. The vitality of the word in the building of the Lord’s chur...

The heart of a man together with the belief systems that it generates is a man's truest foundation, for it is from this fountain that the man lives his life. Consequently, the church's greatest and most important work is upon the hearts of men, teaching men to turn from their selfish desires towards love for the Lord and the neighbour which is from heaven.   The presence of the church in soci...

Every civilisation is built by men. However, the men who will build the civilisation are plagued with selfishness, the main nemesis of civilisation. How will the builders be healed from their selfishness, without the church? It is the church that deals with the hearts, way of thinking and dealings of a people, which naturally don’t promote civilisation. And these are the core of every civilisation...

Divine order cannot be circumvented. For a person to receive from God, their heart must be set on God. The one whose heart (desires) is set on the world detests everything of God. Since the rendezvous point of our reception of God is in the heart, the heart that loves the world has no room for what is of God and can therefore not receive from God. The reality is that, we do not truly desire the th...

The Lord in His incarnation, operated in two states: the state of humiliation and the state of glorification. In the state of humiliation, His human needed to be brought in subjection to the Divine so that the Divine will dwell and have full expression in the human. On the other hand, the state in which the Divine fills and find expression in the human represents the state of glorification. As hum...

The Kind of person you are in the midst of a troubling or perhaps an unbearable situation is more important than the eradication of the situation. Since most of the happenings around us are not within our control, our greatest asset is the kind of person we are in the unsavoury situation. And this is what God does for us: builds us (inner self) up to be formidable to withstand any kind of adversit...

The church is a temple of God according to its relationship with the Word. The destruction of the temple during the Babylonian captivity is symbolic of the decline of the Christian church to the point where the Word has no place to dwell amongst the people of the church. Thus, the rebuilding of the temple refers to the return of the Word in all its fullness. That is, the glory of the Word that sha...

As the gloves were made for the hands, so are we made for the Word of God to dwell in us in all its depths and dimensions and not just as a mere information. The Word has a place in every area of our being. And it’s when every area of our being respond to the Word that we are at our optimum potential. But how can we receive the hidden manna (whose presence constitute the solution we need) in the W...

01 The Word Of His Grace | The Nature Of The Word The phrase, “the son of man” as used in the scriptures refers to the Lord as to the Word. When Jesus asked, “Whom do men say that I, the son of man am?”, He was enquiring of people’s thoughts and relationship with the Word. We were made to receive life force from the Word. The Word of God, our creator, therefore possesses all the faculties and capa...

The reason why perseverance is a must in the spiritual journey is because it’s not a straight forward journey. It tends to be frustrating and the progress we seek may not be forthcoming as desired, not because God has made it so but because of our individual frames. Our journey becomes prolonged because we navigate from a series of misunderstandings and mixed-up motives. Hence the need to be patie...

The spiritual journey is a tortuous path. It is chronicled with a lot of ups and downs; several failed attempts; several misunderstandings; many unpardonable errors; a lot of despairing moments etc. But the key is, not to give up. To make great strides spiritually, one must intentionally cultivate the habit of persevering. In the message, “Being Intentional In Spiritual Things: Perseverance”, Past...

People who make great strides spiritually do not stumble upon it. This is because our natural habits are sensual and thus, blocks us from divine influx. In order to reap any spiritual dividend, we must break away from sensual habits by intentionally taking steps contrary to our old habits. The daily good steps we are drawn to, albeit unceremonious are that of the Lord’s and they are the very steps...

When God comes to us, He delivers us from our darkness and makes us vessels of light unto others in the same darkness. Thus, the deliverance of others is tied to our own deliverance. Many are counting on our encounter with the truth, which we come to when we resist evil. When the enemy succeeds in stopping us, he succeeds in hijacking the freedom of others. In the message, The Word Of Reconciliati...

God has a vision for us: to bring us to a place of true greatness (glory and virtue). We can not attain unto this vision without the wisdom set forth by the word of God. In our quest to realise this vision, the enemy comes in to sell another vision to us. He besets us with numerous temptations, beguiling us into believing there’s nothing to lose. Thus, our resolve to stand our ground is weakened....

The one who proves the Word of God experience its power in truly reconciling their inward rebellious part to God. Such a person comes to the realisation of how crucial the word of reconciliation is in the lives of men. They are therefore unwilling to allow anything to undermine the effectiveness of this word. To be effective carriers of the word of reconciliation, the priest must renounce EVERY hi...

Everyone lives from their inner understanding (a deep-seated conviction). This inner understanding is the light that instructs a person how to live their life. Thus, one becomes a slave to their inner understanding. As such, a person who agrees to the word of God only in the outward understanding, has their inner understanding leading them in a path contrary to the truth. In the message, The Word...

"We must fight the enemy to the end", this must be our mentality in fighting the battle against the things that hold us back from fully committing to the priesthood.   The end thus is in view when we have broken free from the bondage of our addictions and cannot be stirred up again by them.   In other words, when we do not have any affection for these addictions because we consider them...
