BREAKING THE CYCLE OF OFFENSE

 

 

 

Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ! In the world we live in, there are many people who feel offended and are harbouring unforgiveness. However, many offended people never really feel like they are treated quite good enough.

 

My message is entitled : " BREAKING  THE CYCLE OF OFFENSE". Offended people may even feel that the reason good things don't happen to them is because society is out to get them. As a result, they are constantly moving from one unpleasant situation to another.

 

The scripture says, " Woe  unto the world because of offences! For It must needs be that offences come; but woe  to that man by whom the offence cometh." ( Matthew 18:7).

For instance, some people, move from one relationship to another, always complaining about the last person who hurt and disappointed them. This kind of behavior perpetuates the cycle of  offense. 

 

You must break the cycle of offense. To break this cycle, you must reject the belief that everyone is out to get you.

That is merely a lie from the devil and if you believe it, then you will play right into his trap. The devil's snare ( trap) is broken today in the name of Jesus !  ( Psalm 124:6-7). Refuse to expect something hurtful or wrong to be done to you. Don't allow the devil to keep you in that type of bondage.

 

Living in offense can cost you your life, your family, your sanity, or your ministry.

Offenses keep you in a spiritual solitary confinement and captivity. Don't give the devil a foothold! ( Ephesians 4:27).

 

Some offended people tend to change churches frequently.

Of course, there are legitimate reasons for changing churches, like a desire to be with family and friends, a job transfer, or God calls you to a new place.

These are among the various acceptable reasons for changing churches.

 

However, there are also unacceptable reasons for changing churches.

For instance , some people church  - hop because something a church does always offends them. They go to one church for a while, but when something is done that they don't like, they change churches.

 

These people can spend their entire lives floating from one church to another, always offended by the previous place.

There is always something wrong with the last church that sends them seeking yet another place of worship.

Moving from church to church is really no different than changing from one relationship to another - it is simply done on a larger scale.

 

A pattern of an offended person can also include switching from job to job.

After being in the job for six or eight months, suddenly someone doesn't treat them right, and they become offended.

Such people need to renew their mind with the word all the time, in order to break the cycle of offense. ( Romans 12:2).

 

Moving from one situation to another, whether it is friendship, a church, or employment, becomes  a pattern in the life of an offended person.

As you can plainly see, offense affects every aspect of life.

 

Although it may be possible to hoodwink others about being offended, when it comes to dealing with the things of God , you won't get away with it.

The next time you wonder why things are not going well, you might want to consider whether or not you are holding on to an offense that is preventing the blessing of God in your life.

If you will be truly honest with yourself, you will be able to recognize offense when it is hindering you.

 

Then you can be set free! Break the cycle of offense and live freely !

Offenses and unforgiveness, can hinder you from praying freely and receiving your blessings.

 

Release, bitterness, anger, temper, malice and unforgiveness, right now, in the name of Jesus. ( Ephesians 4:31-32, Mark 11:25-26).                      

Be delivered from the cycle of offense!           

 

Be strengthened and encouraged in the name of Jesus.                                       

May God bless you all richly!

BELIEVING IN MIRACULOUS PROVISION

 

 

 

 

Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ! Once again I  am glad to share a message of believing in the Lord's all sufficiency provision! The title of my message is : " Believing in Miraculous Provision!"

 

The Bible says, " And there came a man from Baalshalisha, and brought the man of God bread of the first fruits, twenty loaves of barley, and full ears of corn in the husk thereof. And he ( Elisha) said, Give unto the people, that they may eat. And his servitor, What,  should I set this before  an hundred men? He said again, Give the people, that they may eat: for thus says the Lord, They shall eat, and shall leave thereof. So he set it before them, and they did eat, and left thereof, according to the Word of the Lord." ( 2 Kings 4:42-44).

 

People of God, what is important in our lives is to know and understand the voice that speaks to our situations everyday. That is what brings life and hope to our inadequate and hopeless situations.

 

In the scripture above it did not make sense to feed hundred men with twenty loaves of barley and a small  portion of corn. But the Lord had spoken life into the available supplies for a miraculous provision to take place. " See what others can't see!" Believe what others cannot perceive and hear!

 

The same power that multiplied this food, multiplied the loaves and fish regarding Christ. Men judge our Lord the same as the Prophet's servant judged the barley cakes. They do not believe that He can satisfy the hunger of their hearts; however, all that the world offers can never satisfy man's hunger.

 

Jesus Alone can satisfy and give even more. So, there was plenty, and there was even some left. ( 1 Corinthians 9:11). Sowing in the spiritual realm, unlocks doors of supernatural provision in our lives. Luke 9:17 says, " So they all ate and were filled, and twelve baskets of the leftover fragments were taken up by them.

 

Let there be leftovers in your salary and food provisions! Let there be leftovers in all areas of your life. Remember, if you obey God's voice and His commandments, you can be elevated beyond human survival, to a miraculous supply level. ( Philippians 4:14-19, 2 Corinthians 9:6-12, Luke 6:38, Malachi 3:8-11, 1 Kings 17:9-16).

 

Whatever, situation you may be in, the Lord is able to meet you at the point of all your needs like the woman of Zeraphath, who obeyed God's voice through His , servant Elijah. She gave out of nothing,  and received a supernatural and ulimited provision from the Lord.

 

The same God, can do it again, if you obey his voice and commandments.

Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever! (Hebrews 13:8).

Today, you can still experience God's all sufficiency and miraculous provision, if you believe and obey God' s WORD!  (.Joshua1:8, 2 Chronicles 20:20, Matthew 6:33). 

 

What He did yesterday, He is still doing it today.

It is not by mighty, nor by power, but by His Spirit! ( Zechariah 4:6). 

   

The scripture says, "My God shall supply all your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus!

Follow God's instructions and you will experience a miraculous catch and abundant provisions. ( Luke 5:4-6).  May you experience God's miraculous provision in the name of Jesus Christ!

 

May God richly bless you all

THERE IS STILL HOPE FOR ISRAEL

 

 

 

 

Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ! I just want to encourage you that, despite the challenges and problems you are facing, as well as the prevailing situation, there is still hope for your life. The Bible says, " Then Shekaniah son of Jeniel, one of the descendants of Elam, said to Ezra, "We have been unfaithful to our God by marrying foreign women from the peoples around us. But in spite of this, there is still hope for Israel." ( Ezra 10:2).

 

The title of my message is: "There is still hope for Israel! "

Imagine that you live in a place that has battled a long drought. Everywhere you look, the soil is cracked, dusty and lifeless. It is like it never rained there.

It might seem like crops or trees would never grow again.

But, if you have lived very long,  you know that even the longest drought can be  broken by rainfall. Even the longest suffering and barrenness can come to an end. ( Genesis 18:14, Genesis 21:1-6, Psalm 30:5). ALL HOPE IS NOT LOST!

 

In life, we can feel like that dry, cracked soil. Everything goes wrong; we face a long dry season, hoping to experience something that brings hope and joy.

But you can move from hopelessness to joy!

 

You may be in a relationship that has become difficult and  drains you of your hope.

Like that drought - dried soil, you feel like you will never be able to grow again.

Maybe you placed your hope on someone and were  disappointed. Sometimes we can be fooled by things that appear real, but later rob us of joy and hope. 

 

At some point, you will discover that false hope has made your life dry and difficult.

You may want to give up. You may feel that there is no way forward and that you will die in that dry place of hopelessness.

However, there is still hope for your life, don't give up!  ( Hebrews 10:35-39, Romans 5:3-5).

 

Finding real hope is our desire as believers in Christ. Remember, hope does not disappoint!

There is hope for your marriage, health, relationship, business,  project, the society and Nation at large.

 

There is genuine hope that can bring joy back to you! Like rain on a drought -ridden desert, hope refreshes your life and brings you lasting peace.(John 7:37-39).

Where does such a hope come from? "Hope refreshes your life........" 

Hope comes from placing your trust in Jesus Christ.

 

Jesus came to solve a problem that every man and woman faces. It is called "sin".

The Bible says that because of the wrong things we do, everyone falls short of who God wants us to be. ( Romans 3:23

 

In the scripture above the Israelites, had been involved in foreign marriages and God was disappointed, but however there was still hope for the future.

There was still hope for Israel! 

 

When you allow Jesus Christ to take control of your life, then He will bring life giving forgiveness into your situation and bring you hope. Real hope that is as precious to you as rain falling on drought-ridden land. ( Isaiah 55:10-11).

 

You must always live in hope.

With Jesus in your life, you will never face your problems alone.

You will know victory instead of failure.

 

You can stand with Jesus and He will guide you through life in ways that are far better than you can ever think or imagine.

Jesus will put your life together again and walk with you step by step. ( 1 John 5:12, Ephesians 3:20, Romans 8:31-39, Isaiah 48:17). "There is still hope for Israel."

There is still hope for the Nation, your family and your life.          

 

Pray this prayer to discover real hope: " Dear Lord Jesus, I am in a place that is dry like a desert.

It is a place where I have no hope. Please forgive me of the wrong things I have done and send genuine hope into my life like rain in a dry, barren place.

I surrender my heart to you and ask that you take control of my life now in Jesus'name - Amen!

 

Once again don't give up or surrender, there is hope for your life( Jeremiah 29:11, Deuteronomy 31:6-8).                                  

May the Lord give you hope and richly bless you all!

BLESSINGS WHICH LATER BRING UNHAPPINESS

 

 

 

 

Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ! I just want to start by mentioning that many of us when we are praying to God, we always look forward to receiving positive blessings. The Bible in Psalm 106:15 says,  "And he gave them their request; but sent leanness into their soul." The title of my message is: "Blessings which later bring unhappiness!"

A lot of people have gotten their finger burnt in the place of seeking an alternative to God’s promise. When God’s promise is seemingly delayed, some Christians do not have the strength of character to keep waiting on the Lord and holding on to His promise. ( Hebrews 10:23, Hebrews 6:10).

 

They therefore seek out and accept man’s alternative to God’s precious promises. Not only does man’s alternative take you off God’s course and provide you with quick fixes that cannot really fix anything.  They also give you monetary joy that cannot absolve you of sorrow.

 

This was the experience of Sarah. In today’s Bible reading, after Sarah gave her maid, Hagar, to Abraham to raise children through her, she was happy and relieved that her problem of barrenness seemed solved. But her relief soon turned into grief as her happiness became sorrow. Genesis 16:4 says,
“And he went in unto Hagar, and she conceived: and when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.”

Sarah took good care of Hagar, in expectation of using her as a means to an end. For the purpose of child-bearing, she exempted her from the usual chores that her fellow maids would perform. However, the moment Hagar conceived, the tables turned against Sarah. Suddenly, all attention shifted to the new queen of the house. Everyone and everything had to be at her beck and call.

 

She no longer had regard for her mistress. Realizing she now had what Abraham earnestly wanted, she used her pregnancy as an excuse for gross misbehaviour. She took over Abraham’s attention and the poor man hardly even had time for Sarah anymore.

 

When she was disobedient and her mistress tried to correct her, she would simply tell her, “Madam, if you were ever pregnant, you would understand what I am going through. “That was the beginning of Sarah’s sorrow” Some blessings or gifts can become a curse to our lives.

 

Be careful of how you handle and fix somethings in life, as they may backfire and bring agony and pain in your life, like the case of Sarah and Hagar. Wait upon the Lord. ( Isaiah 40:31, Galatians 6:9-10). Don't assist God, let him act according to his will as you wait for the appointed time. ( Genesis 18:14, Genesis 21:1-6).

When you are tired of waiting for God’s will, plan or timing, and you decide to follow one of the alternatives that come your way, you will only be hurting yourself. May you not use your own hands to undo yourself!

 

When God blesses you, he removes every form of sorrow from it (Proverb 10:22). But whatever blessing you think you can derive from substituting God’s plan with an alternative will only be short-lived and will definitely come with sorrow.

 

Some people who knew and turned down God’s will in marriage, following the dictates of their flesh, ended up in sorrow. A good number of them are secretly weeping today. They cannot cry out because people warned them before venturing into such marriages, but their ears were deaf to those warnings.

 

In your own interest, take time to find out God’s will for every area of your life and apparently follow it. In years to come, you will understand why that was the best decision you ever made. It other cases people have prayed to God for blessings in the form of cars and business ventures, however after having been blessed, the tables turned against their families.

 

They are no longer sleeping in their own homes which they  so cherished and valued in the past. The attention is now focused on the so called concubines ( small houses). The families no longer enjoy the blessings of cars and business project's profits, as they are now being enjoyed by strangers,  instead of family members. 

 

The scripture says " Ye lust, and have not: ye kill,  and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not. Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts......" ( James 4:2-4).

 

Some blessings bring unhapiness and sorrow, instead of joy and happiness.  I come against that spirit of negative and sorrowful blessings in the name of Jesus.

It is better not to be blessed, than to be blessed and have sorrow with it.  

Blessings must always bring success and prosperity in people's lives, rather than sorrow and suffering all the time.

 

I declare you shall be blessed and enjoy the blessings together with your family, in the name of Jesus. (Jeremiah 29:11, Proverbs 16:1-3). You shall not labour in vain! ( Isaiah 65:22-24)

" The blessing of of the Lord brings (true) riches, And He adds no sorrow to it{for it comes as a blessing from God}" ( Proverbs10:22).

 

Once again I declare that your blessings shall bring happines, joy, peace, and not sorrow!                  

May God richly bless you with blessings that will last forever! Amen!

GOD NEVER FAILS

 

 

 

 

Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ! I am delighted to write this message which I hope will encourage and strengthen all those who will read it.

My message is entitled: "God Never Fails! "

 

The Bible says, " Not one word of all the good promises that the Lord has made to the house of Israel had failed; all came to pass." ( Joshua 21:45 ESV). God has no record of failure, because He is the facilitator and maker of all things in heaven, on earth and the under world.

 

Whatever the word says, it is always accomplished and settled. " For ever, O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven".( Psalm 119:89) The scripture also says, " So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it." ( Isaiah 55:11). God's word is trustworthy. His promises are true.

 

What God says he will do, he will do. ( 2 Corinthians 1:20). We live in a world that is broken, broken by sin and as we look about us it seems that everything is failing; all our plans , and other systems are failing, and as a result there is a great deal of dysfunction,  distrust, despair, and disillusionment.

 

It seems we are surrounded by dry and hopeless situations. You have lost hope and confidence in the Lord, because of many challenges which you are facing.  The things that we have counted on for generations seem to be crumbling before our eyes. Is there anything left that we can count on? However, there is still hope for Israel!

 

Our scripture today is about the faithfulness of God. God proved over and over again that whatever He told the children of Israel would become a reality in their lives. Joshua is reminding them of that, so that they would have courage and confidence in God for now and for the future.  We can have that same courage and confidence in our own lives as we trust in God too! ( 1 Peter 4:19, 1 Corinthians 1:9, 1 Corinthians 10:13, 2 Tessalonians 3:3, 2 Timothy 2:13, Hebrews 10:23, Genesis 12:1, 5,7, Genesis 17:8, Genesis 12:9, Hebrews 11:10, 13, 14, 15, 16, )

 

All the above scriptures confirm God's faithfulness to His promises in his word, that he never fails. The Bible also says, " God is not a man, that he should lie; He doesn't change his mind like humans do. Has he ever promised, Without doing what he said?  Look! I have received a command to bless them, And I cannot reverse it!" ( Numbers 23:19-20).

 

God never lies about his promises in his word. I do not know what you have been waiting to receive from God for a long time, be assured that it shall come to pass, because God never fails. He also doesn't change or fail in his promises. ( Malachi 3:6). Remember,  "God Never Fails! "  

 

Just believe and wait for your promises, it shall be well with you in the name of Jesus Christ-Amen! ( John 14:13-14, Isaiah 40:31).   God is able, He never fails! (Jeremiah 32:17,27, Ephesians 3:20).                           

 

May God richly bless you all !

STAND IN THE GAP FOR YOUR CHILDREN

 

 

 

Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ!

Everyday I feel a push to share God's word.

Today I want to share one of my favourite verse in the Old Testament.

Ezekiel 22:30 says, " I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me."
 

The title of my message is: " STAND IN THE GAP FOR YOUR CHILDREN".  Standing in the gap is serious business.

The eyes of the Lord go back and fourth, looking for someone who will stand in the gap for someone else. ( 2 Chronicles 16:9).
 

When someone is away from God, there is a gap between that person and God. He is not able to fill that gap and come to God because his faith is too weak.

Someone else is needed who is  willing to pray and stand in faith in the gap between that person and God .
 

By praying and standing in faith, the Christian builds a bridge for the weak person to come to God.This can be done for groups of people or even for entire cities, but this time I want to teach you how to stand in the gap for your children.
 

How you stand in the gap for your children depends on your prayer life.

Pray at night that God would visit you and wake you up to read the Bible and intercede for your children and other people. The Bible says, " Rise in the night and cry to your God. Pour out your hearts like water to the Lord;  lift up your hands to him;  plead for your children as they faint with hunger in the streets." ( Lamentations 2:19 TLB ).
 

Desire and feel the push to stand in the gap on behalf of other people as you intercede for them.

In particular you must always have that urge and responsibility to pray for your children everyday.  This is so important as it shapes and moulds your children to become strong Christian believers in future.
 

The love for your family must drive you to always find time to stand in the gap for them.

There are lions and leopards which are always desiring  to pounce and devour people,  particularly, children. 

So there is need to protect and cover  them with the blood of Jesus,  through prayer and declaration of the living Word of God. ( 1 Peter 5:7-10, Acts 20:32 ).
 

Even in the jungle, lions always go for the weak young buffalos and elephants, to attack and kill. Stand in the gap for your children and protect them from both physical and spiritual destruction.  Mothers and Fathers, be always alert and awake, as you contuously intercede for your children.
However, when you pray for something for two years without getting It, you will become nervous if you  aren't grounded in God's Word.
 

We need to always feed our spirits with the word of God. ( Collosians 3:16-17)  

God wants you to trust Him  with patience.  ( Isaih 40::28-31).

Anything outside of patience is doubt. Patience and endurance, is what you  need while waiting for God's time. ( Hebrews 10:35-39) 
 

If you do not have the peace of God about what you are asking God for, you are in doubt and it won't work. ( Philippians 4:6-7) 

So as you stand in the gap praying for your children and other people, you must be patient as you wait for answered prayers. ( Jeremiah 33:3, Isaiah 65:24, 1 John 5:14-15).
 

Be prepared to face  risks and sacrifices while standing in the gap for your children and other people. You must always set aside enough time for prayer and Bible study, so that you grow and be strong as a prayer warrior. ( Mark 1:35, Ephesians 6:18, Joshua 1:8).

You must also be prepared to carry the cross on your own behalf and on behalf of your children.   ( Matthew16:24).
 

It is a sacrifice and commitment, which calls for Faith and dedication, to stand in the gap for  your children.

Jesus Christ stood in the gap for all God's children. (John 3:16).

Him who knew no sin, became  sin, so that we could all  be saved.( Acts 4:12).

" Stand  in the gap for your children ".
 

Stand in the gap for your family and Church!
Stand in the gap for your Nation! (2 Chronicles 7:14 ).
Pray without Ceasing!  (Ephesians 6:18, 1 Tessalonians 5:17). 

 

May God richly bless you all!

LET DRY BONES LIVE AGAIN

 

 

 

 

 

Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ! 

I just want to share a word of hope and encouragement.

 

 The Bible in
Ezekiel  37:1-5 says,
"The hand of the Lord was on me, and he brought me out by the Spirit of the Lord and set me in the middle of a valley; it was full of bones. He led me back and forth among them, and I saw a great many bones on the floor of the valley, bones that were very dry.He asked me, “Son of man, can these bones live?”
I said, “Sovereign Lord, you alone know.
Then he said to me, “Prophesy to these bones and say to them, ‘Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord!, This is what the Sovereign Lord says to these bones: I will make breath enter you, and you will come to life."

 

The title of my message is : LET DRY BONES LIVE AGAIN".
(Ezekiel  37:1-14)
Ezekiel  was led by God to a valley of bones.

God took him there so that Ezekiel  would come out of that place with a message for His people.

 

God has led you to that place you are in today.

You might be looking around you and all you see is a lifeless situation.

All you see are dry bones.

 

You might be in a very difficult situation right now and everything around you is just not going your way.

It is not by chance you are in that situation.

God has led you there and there is something you should come out with in that situation.

 

Just as God commanded  Ezekial,speak the word of God into that testing situation you are in right now.
In our reading God instructs Ezekiel  to speak the word of God to the dry bones.

You need to Speak life into your situation.

Speak the mind of God in whatever testing and devastating  situation you are in.

 

"Dry bones hear the word of God".

 It does not matter about the worldly view of your situation, its the word of God that matters and the worldly view might be a fact about your situation. 

We don't  speak facts but the truth, the truth is above facts.

 

The word of God is the truth. ( John 8:31-32, John 17:17).
When God asked Ezekiel  if the bones could live again, Ezekiel gave the correct response.

"Only God knows".

By saying that, Ezekiel gave God His place in the situation and acknowledged that  "only God knows".

 

It is God and God alone who can change your situation.

"Not by mighty, or by power, but by the Spirit of the Lord."( Zechariah 4:6).

It is the Spirit of the Lord that is able to change your situation right now.

 

Every dead situation can live again in the name of Jesus. 

Submit to Him and give Him His place, only Him can give life to lifeless situations.

Matthew 17:20 says, "He said to them, “Because of your little faith. For truly, I say to you, if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you.”

You do not need to memorise the whole Bible,to speak life into your situation. 

That word you have is enough. 

 

The scripture in Matthew 17:20 says, if you have faith like that of a mustard seed you can move a mountain.

Your situation can have life when you have total faith in God.

 

Ezekiel  had faith in the word of God and He used it to prophesy life to the dry bones.

Speak positive things about your life, even when you are in the valley of dry bones.

Prophesy good in your life.

It does not matter where you are, just like the wind that brought breath to the dry bones, your turn around will come from different directions, to reach you and breathe life into your situation.   

The word of God says, Ask whatever you want in my name and,it shall be done.( John 14:14) 

I pray in  the name of Jesus, that whatever has been stealing your joy, be removed and your joy be restored today (Joel 2:25-27). Jesus is in the valley of your dry bones right now, to resurrect every area of your life which is dead. It could be your marriage, relationship, business, job,  dead cells in your body or your financial situation, may it be resurrected in the name of Jesus Christ.

 

Remember, the thief ( devil) comes to steal, kill and destroy, but Jesus came that you may have life, in abundance. ( John 10:10) 

I declare and decree a complete turn around for the best,  today and forever in Jesus mighty name.( Job 22:28-29).

Speak to your dry bones right now, in the name of Jesus.

" Let Dry Bones Live Again!"

 

Stay encouraged in the name of Jesus. 

May God richly bless you all!
