The Gospel is so simple that children can understand it, yet so profound that studied by the wisest theologians will never exhaust its reach. To fully understand the gospel you need to understand why it’s needed in the first place. 3 questions that can help you articulate this thought  1 Why does man need to be saved? 2 What does he need to be saved from? 3 What must man do to be saved?

Balance is an important principle in life and as believers, we have to be balanced in every aspect of our spiritual life. We need to be able to know what is lacking and overemphasize it until it meets up to what it should be.

The believer should have the attitude of an ever-learning student of the Word and every cell group is a ground for discipleship. There are things to know about cell group meetings: 1. Cell groups are for spiritual growth 2. Cell groups are for evangelism 3. Meetings are to be regularly 4. Cell group meetings should be kept small

There are 2 common things that can be seen in all the accounts of the great commission 1. Discipleship 2. Teaching It involves continuous learning and training. There is a kind of training Jesus expects us to have as students of the Word, and there are things to note about a student: 1. A student must be taught from scratch 2. A student must be taught everything about a particular subject 3. A stu...

Prayer is an investment in your life and it requires investment of time. There are reasons why we pray long: 1. We have examples and standards all through scriptures 2. It births faith demonstration 3. It is an investment to yourself and your future

To be effective in the word of God, you must put it to practice and this applies to prayer. When it comes to prayer, you have to take practical steps to not leave it to chance.

As believers, we ought to look through the lens of the scriptures and Jesus to learn about prayer. To pray right, we have to pray according to the Word.

Growth and consecration change prayer focus. With a proper understanding of identity and consecration, our Father's business becomes our business. Jesus taught consecration and obedience in prayer.

Jesus taught the disciple's how to pray and the Lord's prayer is not a chant to recite but a pattern of how to pray. God is our Father and we have access to Him, this should be our approach to prayer.

When you approach prayer you have to approach it rightly because there is a standard in God. 3 reasons why you must pray 1. Prayer projects faith in God. 2. Desire is silent, but prayer is heard. 3. It is the last days.

Baptism is an immersion into a spiritual experience and this series is to pull you into a journey to experience the fullness of prayer. The teaching of God's word isn't just for explanation but also instruction, so learning about prayer from the word of God is to spur you unto more prayer.

What influences us is the word of God and its curriculum, this applies even in relationships and marriages.

Marriage is an earthly institution with eternal implications. It is a lifelong journey and that's why one must choose right.

One thing as believers you must do is to cherish relationships. Relationships are bound to have friction but it's how you respond to the situation that matter.

A purposeful relationship is one that leads to marriage to the end that you both spur yourselves up unto good works. In building a relationship, there is more work to be done to sustain it and make it work.

Choosing a person to spend life with is an intelligent decision. When building your criteria, prioritize rightly. A major reason for wrong criteria is wrong identity and purpose.

Courtship is when to love intelligently and marriage is when to love blindly. It is important to consider the things you see when choosing a life partner.

As a believer, you need to ask the right questions to get the right answers to build the right relationship. As much as you want to know the "God when", it is needed to know the "God why".

Love is beyond an action, it is a person: God. When you consider God's love, then you can truly learn how to love.

God's number one desire is the salvation of all men; as believers, this should also be our priority. God has given us the message, we must announce it.

Honour is a biblical culture. You can't claim to honour God and not honour His messengers. Through honour, your growth and faith can be discerned.

We continue to unpack all God has told us for the year and look at signs for our spiritual well-being.

.The Going train is the 2nd metaphor God used to explain the year to the community. As the individual gears work collectively towards the total working of a clock, the different aspects of a believer's life have to work collectively towards their effectiveness.

.As a community, we are guided by prophecies and this year, God said, is our year of the 5th gear. The 5th gear is a metaphor to describe the greatest range of speed with the least amount of work. A gear of limitless possibilities and flight.
