Walk With Me #Deararn.

Peter was sure of his loyalty to Christ even if others denied Him. It did not take long before he learned it was not about self-will. It was all of grace. The man who boasted about staying true to the Master no matter what confronted them found himself failing at the slightest provocation, even before a servant girl, a grown man swearing before a servant. Jesus answered, “I tell you, Peter, before...

Lent is a time of reflection and introspection. It is a time to self discipline. It is a time to join other believers as we self correct, acknowledge our frailties and ask for divine help. Lent is a commitment to spiritual growth

The day before, He had the Passover meal with his friends and close associates. He told them it was time to fulfil the prophecy, and yes, they came for him. Accusations were levied, and guilty was the verdict. His mother, by then, had become a follower of Christ, the anointed one. The day came, and He had to walk the long road Via Dolorosa, bearing the cross, the emblem of guilt and shame. It was...

Religion is a set of ordinances, beliefs, systems, rules, traditions, behavioural attitudes, ethics, and moral codes, organised to ensure strict adherence to its tenets and geared towards the worship of the preference of a "higher" being or force. It seeks to govern its followers with strict rules, which no compliance commands dire consequences. It also emphasises the role of effort and...

Do you sometimes wonder how destiny makes his house calls? Have you ever imagined if you were on Fortune's list, and if not, what would you need to be? Let us meet Simon of Cyrene. He was one of those we would term "waka pass" (one who makes a cameo appearance) characters in a role play. He got a one-liner mention in the History of Life, the Bible, and God's Manual for anyone int...

How have the events of the suffering, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ shaped your outlook on life? The martyrs of old felt it was an honour to suffer for Christ. How would you compare your suffering to that of the martyrs and to Christs?

What would you do if you knew someone who has done life with you is about to do you in? How would you react if your trusted ally became your greatest enemy? How do you deal with a foe wearing the garb of an ally, and you have the power to get them or, better still, stop their evil act, but you would not because they are working in line with God's purpose for your life?

What is it about having a prayer place and time? Does it mean God would not hear us otherwise? On the contrary, it is the force of habit. The art of separating ourselves into specific locations signals that we consider prayer crucial to life and value our time with God. It is an honour to be allowed in God’s presence. Separating ourselves to receive such grace is a delightsome act. Blessed are tho...

when we take or observe communion, we take on the life of Christ. It is called the power of exchange. Since the cutting of the covenant makes one of the two parties involved, the believer has access to everything Christ has. He is transformed, forgiven, revived, renewed, healed, delivered, protected, preserved, enlightened and at peace with God. The terms of the covenants are blessings; and, when ...

To be a great leader, you must seek to serve. Come down to the level of the people. It is how Jesus dealt, if you are His followers, you must do likewise.

Do you look, talk, and act anointed but lack power? Does anyone around you even know that you belong on the way, or did you let the sticker on your car bumper or door frame at home do the talking? Do you occupy the front-row seat and need to learn a lesson or two on how to be ready to serve the King whenever He chooses to come by? Does your worship have substance, or do you only look the part?

Is   it   possible   that   all   that   has   been   happening   to   you   is   to   prepare   you   for   when   the   Master   wants   to   arrive   in   style?   What   would   have   been   going   through   the   colt's   mind   all   the   time   it   was   tied   up,   and   it   would   watch   other   colts   go   by? Has   life   tied   you   down?   Is   anyone   laying   a   clai...

Jesus commended her actions. He informed the onlookers that her generosity prepared Him for the days ahead. She understood forgiveness and how it brought about gratefulness. She depicted love, devotion, sacrifice and service, the reason you invited people to feast with you in your home.

Mama and her two boys in tow found an opportune time to approach Jesus. She knew what to do. Approach God in worship as it is a vital key to gaining access to the presence of God. Jesus saw through the plot and did not waste time letting them know what they requested was beyond their pay grade. It was in the Father's jurisdiction to determine who got what and when. Besides asking for a tricky...

As Christians, we do not have to worry. Our lives and destinies are secure in Jesus, who has guaranteed the future by His death and resurrection. Hallelujah! Do you find yourself still worrying despite knowing Gods word? What measures have you put in place to ensure the word has effect on your life and situation?

Jesus said, "My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations." What are we to do in church? Pray, intercede, bring the nations before God, heal the sick, exalt the Lord and not use His name to trade or do business. God's promise to us, What then shall we say, brothers and sisters? When you come together, each of you has a hymn, or a word of instruction, a revelation, a ton...

   Do you sometimes feel like you do not belong or are not enough? Have you ever played host to rejection, shame, low self-esteem, frustration, anger, vulnerability, inadequacy and many more negative emotions? Do you have questions about your self-worth and identity? If so, you're not alone. This book is set to help you rediscover your identity and overcome any negative emotions and their effe...

Life   offers   us   many   models;   people   have   walked   on   the   same   roads   we   find   ourselves.   Folks   have   faced   similar   situations.   Their   stories   and   lives   are   our   witnesses,   but   Jesus   is   our   ultimate   role   model.   To   live   successful   lives,   we   must   stop   to   consider   how   He   did   it   whilst   He   was   here   on   earth....

The Bible refers to it as the root of bitterness. It calls it poison; it spreads, festers and defiles. It is dangerous; it kills the one who lets it in. Don't let it have room in your life. So many have fallen victim to its deadly grip. Run from it, as your existence depends on your fleeing the vice. Because we live in a world of sin, we face situations that evoke negative emotions. We must do...

1. Take heed to yourself. 'The first shall be the last" is still a potent force. Self-righteousness has never landed anyone a spot in the kingdom of God. 2. Obedience to the Father's command proves we love Him. 3. Repentance is a pivot to our walk with God. 4. It does not matter how you start; how you end is crucial. 5. You do not qualify for the kingdom because of your ranking in lif...

Finding Your Identity in Christ, The "I AM"

Do not apologise for God's gifts in your life. God's authority in a man's life is bestowed, not snatched. All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Mathew 28:18 Understand that the grouse may have nothing to do with you but everything to do with how you made them feel. Admit that the only person you have control over is yourself. Refrain from being dragged into argumen...

In what areas of life have you faced opposition? What is your reaction to areas of opposition? What does the Word of God say about facing opposition? What specific word(s) helped in the time of opposition? Is there a correlation between the way of the cross and the opposition you face?

For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. 14 I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well. 15 My frame was not hidden from You, When I was made in secret, And skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. 16 Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were writte...
