Tri-partite

W e all have things we are expecting God to do for us this year. Certainly, most of us hope that this year we will see God in action in various aspects of our lives, saying, 'I am trusting God to do this and that for me🙏 this year  '.  However, to see the hand of God (God's power) takes more than amazing plans. At times we hinder God from working, and sometimes God is at work, and we don't see it😳, all because we lack  a key component .  What is this key ingredient to seeing God move? While giving the popular sermon on the mount, Jesus said, ' Blessed are the pure in heart for they,  shall see God' (Matthew 5:8). You are probably thinking "what does being pure in heart have to do with my goals?"  Basically, ensuring your heart is pure implies not exposing yourself to what can 'corrupt the heart', which is very important. But, on the flip side , it also means making sure that the motive of your actions and goals (that you are trusting God for

Many things happened to us this year that we didn’t plan for.  Also, unlike others, some of us didn’t get all we asked and prayed for to happen this year😩.  Frequently, when we thank God for how the year has been, at times these degrading thoughts pop up in our hearts along with our sonorous voices during thanksgiving. Rather than this heart posture, there are two✌️ key postures that Jesus desires of us to truly worship God. Jesus spelt it out in John 4:24 , “God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth” What does 'in spirit' imply? 🤷 Remember, when we accepted Jesus as our Lord and Savior, He gave us the Holy Spirit. Thus, it is apt to say that when Christ said ‘worship in spirit’, He wants us to thank Him for what He has given us and not worry about what He hasn’t given us. Thus, we aren’t pained because we haven’t gotten a Rolls Royce yet; rather, we thank Him for the vision He has given us that will certainly prosper beyond imaginat

D elay is not always caused by your “village” people or spiritual attacks. Sometimes, the main reason we haven’t gotten the answer to our prayers is that we forget an important principle of God. So, before you go to that next 'night vigil' or embark on marathon fasting, make sure you understand this precious tenet of God. Genesis 2:5 lays the foundation of this principle -" no shrub  or  plant of the field was yet in the earth, and no herb of the field had yet sprouted, for the LORD God had not caused it to rain on the earth, and  there was no man to cultivate the ground ," . In simpler terms, God didn't send rain because there was no one to work on the ground. Could it be that God hasn't sent rain in that area of your life because you haven't become the person that can cultivate the ground i.e. you haven't become THE ONE, that God can entrust with the riches of the earth? Jesus said, "we perish for lack of knowledge", or more easily put, we

W e are in the first double-digit month of 2022.  The Bible urges us to understand the times that we live in. As always, there are splendid things that God is doing per season and the tenth month is not an exception.  However, through the word, the light to our path, we can see the marvelous things associated with the number 10 and the tenth month and be partakers of these blessings. Let's move 💃. 1. Creative power : Do you know that during creation, God uttered ten authoritative creation statements ('God said' occurred ten times)?  2. Grace and Favour: The  Bible recorded that in the tenth month, Esther found grace and favor before the King. Thus, she was enthroned and made queen even in a strange land (Esther 2). 3. In the 10th month, A word from God came through Ezekiel, that Pharoah, a proud self-proclaimed stronghold, and principality, will be displaced out of his territory with his cohorts and utterly disgraced (Ezekiel 29). 4. Also, although God wiped the earth, He
