'HAGEE QUOTES'

I'm sure by now you know that Saturdays I step out from meditating hard with my own messages to bring you those from others.

Now, today I feature Pastor John Hagee.
A little about him and then the QUOTES.

John Charles Hagee (born April 12, 1940) is the founder and senior pastor of Cornerstone Church, a charismatic megachurch in San Antonio, Texas.
Hagee is also the CEO of his non-profit corporation, Global Evangelism Television (GETV).

He's the president of John Hagee Ministries.
His ministrations are on national radio &TV in USA reaching over 150 million people.
Also shown on Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN).

The QUOTES NOW:
@ PastorJohnHagee
Everyone has the power to bless you. Some people bless you by coming into your life and others bless you by leaving it. #JHMRally

@ PastorJohnHagee
Worry is like a rocking chair, it will give you something to do, but it won't get you anywhere.

@ PastorJohnHagee
What do you want out of your life? What would you attempt to do for God if you knew you couldn't fail?

@ PastorJohnHagee
Don't let another person define you and don't let the past control your present. You are a child of God liberated from the past. #JHMRally

@ PastorJohnHagee
Stop allowing other people's opinions about you to control your life. You take charge of your life or somebody else will. #JHMRally

@ PastorJohnHagee
A good leader cannot be all things to all people. You can either offend man and please God or offend God and please man. #JHMRally

@ PastorJohnHagee
Sometimes you have to let go of the life you pictured, in order to have the life that God has planned

@ PastorJohnHagee
Don’t wait for the people and circumstances surrounding you to make you happy. True happiness is only found in Jesus Christ!

@ PastorJohnHagee
God's grace is far greater than any sin you have committed. If there's not redemption for one of us, there's not redemption for all of us.

SO I SAY:
HAGEE QUOTES... TOUCHING ON OUR CHRISTIAN LIFE TOO.  BE BLESSED

WHAT CAN I DO LORD?(PHIL. 4:13)

A very good morning to all of you.
It's all about our Christian life this week and today is no different.

Today, it's about seeking to find out 'WHAT WE CAN DO LORD?'
Yes, asking God WHAT WE CAN DO?

This is a true story of Don and his wife Vivian who are in their mid 90's and have been married for more than 70 years.

At their ages, they  are still active members of the church but not until Vivian broke his hip and they gradually grew weaker unable to do what they used to.

However, they asked, WHAT CAN WE DO LORD? They couldn't be frequent at church but being prayer warriors they spent time praying for souls.

In the powerful prayer movie, War Room, this is what the similar aged Miss Clara did by having a prayer closet where he asked God to lead her to who he (God) wants her to help.

Hmmm, so you think you can't do anything just because:

*At age 17, you've lost your parents and there's no one to look up to.

(Apart from looking up to God, what he has done in innumerably hopeless ones should give you enough confidence)

* As a young,vibrant, bright,visionary and widely acclaimed to be full of promise; suddenly being incapacitated in a wheelchair, the loss of sight,legs have made you think you're useless.

(Beloved, maybe before but now and even then, God has shown us countless stories of people who've made it.YOU CAN DO SOMETHING)

A lot of people have left their families for missionary works, facing persecutions, are without a meal a day all for the sake of CHRIST.

Therefore, for you, the  Financial constraints, People's attitude, Distance factor, Petty squabbles shouldn't be a hindrance AT ALL.

By now, you should know that NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS TO YOU, YOU CAN DO SOMETHING.

So I think the title question shouldn't be asked but as human as we are; we sometimes do at our wits end.

SO I ASK:
WHAT CAN I DO LORD?...YOU CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS YOU!!!

MEDITATE!!!

Good morning.
It's MEDITATE time once again.

All I want you to do is to think deeply about the passage below and let the Holy Spirit speak to you.

That's MEDITATE!!!

HEBREWS 12:1-13
1Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,

2 looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.

DO NOT GROW WEARY
3 Consider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted.

4 In your struggle against sin you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood.

5 And have you forgotten the exhortation that addresses you as sons? “My son, do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord,
nor be weary when reproved by him.

6 For the Lord disciplines the one he loves, and chastises every son whom he receives.”

7 It is for discipline that you have to endure. God is treating you as sons. For what son is there whom his father does not discipline?

8 If you are left without discipline, in which all have participated, then you are illegitimate children and not sons.

9 Besides this, we have had earthly fathers who disciplined us and we respected them. Shall we not much more be subject to the Father of spirits l and live?

10 For they disciplined us for a short time as it seemed best to them, but he disciplines us for our good, that we may share his holiness.

11 For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.

12 Therefore lift your drooping hands and strengthen your weak knees,

13 and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be put out of joint but rather be healed.

SO I SAY:
MEDITATE!!!

QUESTIONS???(PART 1)

QUESTIONS,QUESTIONS, QUESTIONS

All about QUESTIONS today.
As I said, purposefully the messages this week are all centered on our Christian lives.

Okay, so today I just want to ask you the following QUESTIONS, leave you to ponder over them and provide answers if you may.

You can share your answers right here.

THE QUESTIONS NOW:

*Who are you???

*What are you made for???

*What's your life???

*Who/what do you depend on???

*How do you relate to the different kind of people??? 

(Introverts, extroverts, Proud, annoying,humble,rich, poor, loud, believer, worldly)

*What keeps you going???

*Where are you normally seen???

*What do you do when mostly alone???

*Who are the people you normally associate with???

*How do your friends see you???

* What are the things that influence you???

*How do you handle influences???

*How far do those influences take you???

*Do you have your own principles, philosophies, beliefs???

*How strong or weak are they???

*What are they based on???

Let's end here and see what QUESTIONS bring us today.

IN ANSWERING, JUST KNOW THAT CHRIST IS & SHOULD BE THE CENTER OF IT ALL.

SO I SAY:QUESTIONS???( PART 1)(More to come on this)

'SPARE ME A MOMENT...LET'S DO THIS. (Matthew 6:19-21)

It looks like this week, the messages are on our Christian lives& the state of it.Yesterday, we looked at the word TESTIMONY which  concentrated on our salvation and OUR LIVES.

Today, I want you to SPARE ME A MOMENT...LET'S DO THIS.

*You get back home and you realise that all your valuables are not there.
(Your house, Cars,Designer Shirts,Garments,Gold Watch among others)

TELL ME WHAT IS THE FIRST THING YOU WOULD  DO?

SPARE ME ANOTHER MOMENT WITH THIS ONE
*So you buy that  GHS3000 Phone essentially to aid you in your business.
You Pay for it on the spot. You get home and can't find it because your accompanying friend took it briefly as a test.

WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU WITHIN THAT TIME IT WAS MISSING?

Where are our hearts as Christians? 

These things and many others seemed to have totally taken us over even without our knowing. Put a direct question to someone on some of these issues & he'll flatly deny it with seemingly good reasons.

Phones for instance have become an addictive mainstay(It seems we're all culprits). No wonder Lindstrom's research using  Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI) helped to discover that the ringing of a Phone fired off in the brains a feeling of love and affection as of a relative or girlfriend. 

The Bible says 'WHERE YOUR TREASURE IS, THERE IS YOUR HEART'

God continues to tell us to take our hearts from the Earthly and place them in the heavenly which is lasts forever.

I admonish you today to sit down and evaluate what would happen to you IF...

Then, continue to pray&seek God's help NOT to live off worldly pleasures rather to live on heavenly jewels even on earth.

Where is your HEART?

Heyyy, let me not miss this... 

  Another SPARE ME SCENARIO IS:
*Exactly,what  happened to you when the LIGHTS went off and on TV,you missed your... (You know best, continue for me)

SO I SAY:
SPARE ME A MOMENT...LET'S RATHER DO...

'TESTIMONIES'

Good morning people of God.

A holy nation. A royal priesthood .A Peculiar people.(I love that one)

Today it's about TESTIMONIES. Do you have any to share?

Certainly, by now you should know you don't have to wait till that special something happens before... (That is the mistake we mostly make)

So obviously we're looking at CHRISTIAN TESTIMONIES and not the one where you're brought into a courtroom,under oath and EXPECTED to give a true personal account/witness to a case being heard.

Okay, so a Christian testimony is  simply the Christian sharing how he became a Christian by God’s wondrous intervention (Grace)& also his forever work in our lives through myriad ways.

This also means our whole life is a TESTIMONY to God and for others to see.
This is where my concentration is on today.

It's not to trivialise  the sharing of our salvation experience which is key but what people normally wants to see is what comes after. You're a Christian...So?

In Psalm 81:5,David says
'This he ordained in Joseph as a TESTIMONY, when he went out through the land of Egypt:where I heard a language I understood not.'

Like Joseph, your whole life is a testimony to the one called you so that you can also call others with that same testimony.

With this, tell me...what kind of Christian ought you to be?
First, it fully reminds you of who you are and what you're made for?

Then, it leads you to commit  your whole self to  him to truly making your life a TESTIMONY.

It's why the Lord answers us in Psalm 40:3 that he puts a new song in our mouth(every moment),a hymn of praise to our God so that many will see and fear and put their trust in the Lord.
( This is also backed by Lamentations 3:22-23)

So continue to share those wonderful Testimonies like saved from a fatal accident,  deliverance from demonic attacks,secured a billion dollar contract, Car, Mansion.

However, never forget the testimony of your life . First, your salvation and your life after.
Let someone see you and say because of the mere sight of you, I give my life to CHRIST.

WHAT A GREAT TESTIMONY IT WILL BE TO SHARE.

SO I SAY:
'TESTIMONIES

'MEDITATE' (1CORINTHIANS 15:50-58)

Today's Meditation is on the above passage.
Let's see what God has for us in this as we MEDITATE

50 I declare to you, brothers and sisters, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.

51 Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed—

52 in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.

53 For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality.

54 When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”

55 'Where, O death, is your victory?

'Where, O death, is your sting?

56 The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.

57 But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

58 Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.

SO I SAY:
'MEDITATE!!!'

'LAND/EARTH_ A KEY ELEMENT DESCRIBING OUR GOD'

This element ends our series  on the various elements that I have chosen from the scriptures.

So far we've looked at WATER, LIGHT&AIR.
Let's get to our focus  for the evening.

Typical of this series we always start off with the general knowledge.
Of course,  LAND/EARTH are used interchangeably.

There's some differences to choose between the two which is, LAND is the PART OF THE EARTH which is not covered by oceans or other bodies of water while EARTH is (uncountable) soil &include dry land with all other bodies.
(Mind you Earth is also a planet, third out of the sun)

A STRONG POINT HERE:
The Earth's total land mass is 148,939,063.133 km 2 (57,505,693.767 sq mi) which is about 29.2% of its total surface. The rest of EARTH surface belonging to Water. (which have been treated in this series)

So back to the scriptures which  captures Earth in these lights:

*As that creation of God- Genesis 1:1, IN THE BEGINNING GOD CREATED THE HEAVENS&THE EARTH.

*The rest of it as shown in Genesis is its usage in relation to man and other inanimate objects.

*Aside Land whose definition above is clearly shown in Genesis 1:9, the other usage of it is in relation to towns and countries....EGYPT, CANAAN et al.

*Th classical definition of this elements in the new testament is that LAND/EARTH is equated to the WORLD and how fleeting it is..the nothingness of it (Matthew 6:19, 5:18, 9:6)

LAY NOT FOR YOURSELF TREASURES ON EARTH WHERE MOTH&RUST DESTROY...

HEAVEN&EARTH WILL PASS AWAY...

However, back in Genesis we're told to TAKE DOMINION OVER THE EARTH. ..(Genesis 1:28)

So....simple, we're here for a purpose. God made us greater than all other things including the  EARTH itself. Take full charge of it, fulfil your divine mandate and vamos....we're gone

My key point here about the EARTH is that take a look at it. Have you....Have you really have???

If not which I'm sure we've not really have then let's do it.
Aside the beauty, vegetation& panoramic view that most of our untapped lands give us;there is this awestruck sight&voice it tells us.

Checking the whole Earth size and even the vastness of the little we see...the simple question:
WHO MADE THIS? ...THEN, HE MUST BE GREAT....HOW WIDE DEEP, HIGH....

There should be something about this supreme one and it can only be one divine being.... GOD!

Don't miss the opportunity to specially stand on that mountaintop,in a plane or any viewing of a sort to really get a a deeper description of our God (Let me whisper this You're not CRAZY)

SO I  RAP UP& SAY:
JUST AS WATER, LIGHT&AIR ARE KEY ELEMENTS DESCRIBING OUR LORD, SO IS THE LAND/EARTH WE STAND ON.

(THE OTHER ELEMENTS DESCRIBING OUR LORD,Minor elements you can say FOLLOW SUIT IN THE COMING WEEKS)

'WAR ROOM PRAYER_RAISE 'EM UP LORD'

WAR ROOM is a movie that touches my heart. Simply, it's a movie on PRAYER. Movies such as this are not those you just watch, have fun with &go away.

They are meant to SPEAK,CHANGE and TRANSFORM lives and what a way to do this than through PRAYER. ( I simply define prayer here as spending time with GOD).Prayer is something most Christians find it hard doing. They will rather want it to be done for them by another even at a cost.

Meanwhile,what is required is  just your heart, mind, soul and Spirit. The raising of hands and the kneeling down is only used as and when led or necessary. Is this not something everyone has or..?  

(We may need a help on how to pray at a point but remember the more you pray, the more you learn how to pray. The Holy Spirit is the best teacher)

Thankfully, the movie aptly, delightfully and enjoyably weave a transformational spiritual life along one of the pillars in the christian Life -PRAYER. HURRY UP IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCH THIS!

Okay, the movie is from the Kendrick Brothers, makers of the equally powerful movies-COURAGEOUS& FIREPROOF.

The movie victoriously ends on this powerful prayer note of the old woman(MISS CLARA) asking God to send another person her way to help. I love this part..So all this while, this is something she has been...(Get the movie to understand)

This is a prayer for all of us....

Here we Go: ( VIDEO LINK ATTACHED)

"You've done it again Lord.
You've done it again.

You're good& you're mighty and you're merciful.

And you keep taking care of me when I don't deserve it(PRAISE YOU JESUS)
YOU'RE LORD.

Give me another one LORD.
Guide me to who you want me to help

Raise up more that will call upon your name.
Raise up those that  Love you& Seek you and Trust you.

RAISE 'EM UP LORD...RAISE 'EM UP!!!

Lord, we need a generation of believers who are not ashamed of the Gospel.

We need an army of believers LORD that hate to be lukewarm&will stand on your word above all else. .. RAISE 'EM UP LORD...RAISE 'EM UP.

I pray for unity among  those that love you.
I pray that you open their eyes so that they  can see your truth Lord.

I pray for your hand of protection and guidance.
Raise up a generation Lord that will take light into this world...that will not compromise when under pressure...that will not cower Lord when others fall away.

RAISE 'EM UP LORD...that they will proclaim that there is SALVATION in the name of JESUS CHRIST.

Raise up warriors who will fight on their knees...who will worship you with their  whole hearts LORD.

LORD, CALL US TO BATTLE...THAT WE MAY PROCLAIM YOU KING OF KINGS&LORD OF LORDS.

I PRAY THESE THINGS WITH ALL MY HEART.

RAISE 'EM UP LORD!!!

SO I SAY:'RAISE 'EM UP!!!...AMEN'

'SHINING EVEN IN THE END’ (Daniel 12)

It's a gamut of scriptures today on ON THIS MORNING.

Let's Start:
Do you know we're in the end times???(I'm sure you do)
All the prove of this is laid bear in Matthew 24.

V. 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you dare not alarmed, for this  must take place, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation will rise against nation, and
kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places.

8 All these are but the beginning of the birth pains.
9 “Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake.

10 And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another.
11 And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray.

12 And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold.
13 BUT THE ONES WHO ENDURES TO THE END WILL BE SAVED.

For most of us, the mere mention of the END TIMES spell only DOOM DOOM &PERPETUAL DOOM.

It looks like suddenly our LOVING& COMPASSIONATE  GOD has turned wicked for allowing such a day to visit us.

One biggest scare in it is that NOONE KNOWS THE DAY/HOUR...NOT EVEN THE SON HE SAYS. Then, he also likens such a day to the work of a thief.(2Peter 3:10)

However, in the face of all these, I write this morning with a MESSAGE OF HOPE.
A message from the same GOD. 
A Message from the same Holy Book.

The Message is very simple and it says EVEN IN THESE END TIMES HE HAS MADE AS SHINING LIGHTS.

SHINE EVEN IN THE END!!!

And these are why you need to have HOPE, BE REASSURED AND FACE THIS WORLD WITH ALL CONFIDENCE TO THE END.

*'In the Last days, GOD says I WILL POUR OUT MY SPIRIT ON ALL PEOPLE. YOUR SONS AND DAUGHTERS WILL PROPHESY, YOUR YOUNG MEN WILL SEE VISIONS, YOUR OLD MEN WILL DREAM DREAMS.'
(Acts 2:17/Joel 2:28)

*I pray that the eyes of your heart may be ENLIGHTENED, so that  you will know what is the hope of this calling.... and what is the surpassing GREATNESS of his POWER toward us who believe....
(Ephesians 1:18-19)

*His DIVINE POWER has granted to us EVERYTHING pertaining to LIFE &GODLINESS, through the true knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and excellence.
For by these, he has granted to us his precious and magnificent promises, so that by THEM YOU MAY BECOME PARTAKERS OF THE DIVINE NATURE, having escaped THE CORRUPTION THAT IS IN THE WORLD...(2 Peter 1:3-4)

LASTLY,
DANIEL 12:3
'THOSE WHO ARE WISE WILL SHINE LIKE THE BRIGHTNESS OF THE HEAVENS, AND THOSE WHO LEAD RIGHTEOUSNESS, LIKE STARS FOR EVER AND EVER.'

This is who GOD has made us even in the end. As for WISDOM as stated above, ITS SOURCE IS ONLY IN GOD.

SO I SAY:
'SHINING EVEN IN THE END.'

“LORD, 'PLEEASE' HELP OUR FOOLISHNESS” (PSALM 38)

Ooh yes that's my title today. 
I'm not insulting or finding a way to say you are FOO.. but the fact is we all are.

That is what our human self or frailties lead us to...FOOLISHNESS. We vow no to, really know what is right to, we even write or tell others about it yet we repeatedly repeat the same things.

Now isn't that  FOO...FOOLISHNESS. (Eeei did I say we even write about it.)

Okay, so many are the things we do that qualifies us for this unwanted title.

The classical one is in the below which bears all the naked evidence both implicitly& explicitly:

*So why do you hold on to that firm but empty belief that there is NO GOD? An Atheist, huh? Then you might as well believe in the nothingness of this world. (Maybe, that will do)

 In spite of all these, you are gripped with fear and if stones,wood and the like are not your idol; it's the material things of this world. (Money, Education)

Even for that, you believe if you only work hard, diligent, faithful to, determined, put the mind to it, you'll succeed. In all these, you FORGET THAT THEY EMANATED FROM SOMEWHERE OR HAS A SOURCE. 

Again, Is it because of what you went through growing up.The things& people in our life?...It will surprise you that they eventually believed which is what saved them in all these.(Well, I believe 'GOD IS NOT DEAD' MOVIE WILL DO JUSTICE TO THIS.GRAB IT IF YOU HAVEN'T)

Now,

I will quote the popular and related Scripture on this which shows the FOOLISHNESS of doubting the ONLY one God because EVEN DEMONS BELIEVE  IN THIS ONE GOD AND SHUDDER (Go to James 2:19)

So then,this is the Scripture for them:
THE FOOL SAYS IN HIS HEART, THERE IS NO GOD.(Psalm 14:1)

This is backed by these verses:
Jeremiah 10:8
'But they are altogether stupid and foolish in their discipline of delusion--their idol is wood!'

Jeremiah 4:22

"For My people are foolish, They know Me not; They are stupid children and have no understanding They are shrewd to do evil, But to do good they do not know."

Now,  Let's look at the everyday ones.
On my way to work just this morning, I saw a car speedily appraching a dog on the way.
The dog stood there till it was nearly hit by the car. The Car had to slow down a bit before it moved away. That is how most of us are...not once, twice but on countless occasions. The merciful truth in our over-speeding foolishness as humans is that our God slows down on them even in exceeding measure.

Again, we are as described in Proverbs 26:11, 'As a dog returns to its vomit, so fools repeat their folly.'

* How many times have we not forsaken the word which has led us to a bitter experience.
(God delivers us and we worm our way back into that old life sinking even deeper.)

*How many times have we not said we won't be late again? (ooh this one please Lord, help our foolishness..we've so much trivialized it. Let's change now!)

*How many times haven't we said we wouldn't let those issues go? (Forgetting that Ishmael forgave you 96 hours ago for a similar offence.)

*And ooh how many times have you not said that you would win a soul?
(For this, Bible is so clear in Proverbs 11:30 -'The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and he who wins souls is wise.')
Therefore, simply, if you don't win souls you are ...Think about it very well. What's the essence of being a christian all these years and you can't win our soul?

Simply, God knows our FOOLISHNESS and the root of it and that's why he gives a REBIRTH through SALVATION making his GRACE abundantly available.(Romans 10:9)

The Bible says 'No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God's seed remains in them; they cannot go on sinning, because they have been born of God.(1 John 3:9) 

This means that yes as Christians, we may have that back and forth with sin but as we move on in him, we get to that point where sin will no longer have a hold on us. It is possible. The same Bible provides us with examples.

Again, God knows this and so all he asks of you is to ENTER HIS GRACE, PURPOSE IN YOUR HEART & ALLOW HIM TO USE YOU FULLY. 

Don't always forget to run back to seek and access his HELP- STRENGTH,POWER  and GRACE he's already laid out for you.Remember, you are still in that renewal and transformation process to finally be the perfect saint he's already made you spiritually. 

I believe we don't do this enough- A determined heart &mind to live for God letting him order our steps every step of the way. 

Without this, we will constantly repeat those foolishness!

SO I SAY:
'LORD, PLEEASE HELP OUR FOOLISHNESS'

'MEDITATE!!!' (GALATIANS 5:1-14)

We're back and
I bring you 'MEDITATE' this morning.

Galatians 5:1-14 is the passage to reflect on.

'FREEDOM IN CHRIST'

1 It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.

2 Mark my words! I, Paul, tell you that if you let yourselves be circumcised, Christ will be of no value to you at all.

3 Again I declare to every man who lets himself be circumcised that he is obligated to obey the whole law.

4 You who are trying to be justified by the law have been alienated from Christ; you have fallen away from grace.

5 For through the Spirit we eagerly await by faith the righteousness for which we hope.

6 For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love.

7 You were running a good race. Who cut in on you to keep you from obeying the truth?

8 That kind of persuasion does not come from the one who calls you.

9 “A little yeast works through the whole batch of dough.”

10 I am confident in the Lord that you will take no other view. The one who is throwing you into confusion, whoever that may be, will have to pay the penalty.

11 Brothers and sisters, if I am still preaching circumcision, why am I still being persecuted? In that case the offense of the cross has been abolished.

12 As for those agitators, I wish they would go the whole way and emasculate themselves!

13 You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh ; rather, serve one another humbly in love.

14 For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”
SO I SAY:
'MEDITATE!!!'

'MEDITATE!!!' (DEUTERONOMY 30:11-20)

'MEDITATE' TIME  IS HERE.

Straight, I hand you over to DEUTERONOMY 30:11-20.

THE OFFER OF LIFE OR DEATH
11 Now what I am commanding you today is not too difficult for you or beyond your reach.

12 It is not up in heaven, so that you have to ask, “Who will ascend into heaven to get it and proclaim it to us so we may obey it?”

13 Nor is it beyond the sea, so that you have to ask, “Who will cross the sea to get it and proclaim it to us so we may obey it?”

14 No, the word is very near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart so you may obey it.

15 See, I set before you today lifev and prosperity, death and destruction.

16 For I command you today to love the LORD your God, to walk in obedience to him, and to keep his commands, decrees and laws; then you will live  and increase, and the LORD your God will bless you in the land you are entering to possess.

17 But if your heart turns away and you are not obedient, and if you are drawn away to bow down to other gods and worship them,

18 I declare to you this day that you will certainly be destroyed. You will not live long in the land you are crossing the Jordan to enter and possess.

19 This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live

20 and that you may love the LORD your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him. For the LORD is your life, and he will give  you many years in the land he swore to give to your fathers,Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

SO I SAY:
'MEDITATE'
(SEE YOU IN CHURCH)

‘WHAT…WHAT AT ALL ARE YOU HIDING??? (PSALM 139)

Yes, this morning I ask YOU. ..yes YOU...WHAT...WHAT AT ALL ARE YOU HIDING?

You know I don't know... but first let's start off with these verses in Psalm 139

1 You have searched me, LORD, and you know me.
2 You know when I sit and when I rise;you perceive my thoughts from afar.

3 You discern my going out and my lying down;you are familiar with all my ways.
4 Before a word is on my tongue you, LORD, know it completely.

5 You hem me in behind and before, and you lay your hand upon me.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain.

7 Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence?
8 If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.

9 If I rise on the wings of the dawn,if I settle on the far side of the sea,
10 even there your hand will guide me,
your right hand will hold me fast.

Okay, that ends the Psalm for me.
Are you still hiding something?

*To you the Pastor, you preach all the powerful&touching sermons yet you forget you're a Christian first.

You dabble in...ooh No, not the 'big' sins of adultery oo but the normalized 'professional' backbiting in the Pastoral associations.

*Eeei haven't you heard Adwoa is fornicating with Rich Andrew...but do you know the richest person in the church?...

That's You, you think you're a common church member,  cleaner and only live on that tabletop  business and so your gossip is nothing at all. Always hiding behind people and seeking favours.

*I'm wondering YOU, you've been walking with that friend for months behaving as if you like her but in your head you've set up  the perfect plan for her downfall
(You know why?...because she gets all the favours...hmmm)

*So the Boss likes you ee, YOU have made him believe you're so good but that huge percentage cut that comes to you every month. ..3y3 as3m(it's a big issue)

*Do you know the annoying thing? That's when the husband continues to say to his brother 'ooh my wife de3, i know she's faithful which the wife passionately affirms. Meanwhile the wife& the brother...

Hmmm...I end right there but do you know GOD IS WATCHING YOU.
Anyway, he still loves you all the same thou he hates them but waiting for you to change.

In all these, he keeps giving you the signs, providing the solutions. The verses above speak enough.

YOU KNOW IT AIN'T RIGHT!!!
SEEK THE SOLUTIONS&BE THE NEW CREATURE YOU TRULY ARE.

SO I SAY:
'WHAT...WHAT AT ALL ARE YOU HIDING???'

‘SPIRITUAL RESHUFFLES'

Spiritual Reshuffles is my title this morning.

Shall we?... ooh don't tell me you've not heard of the word RESHUFFLE.

It's a popular word in the political circles or you don't listen to politics. 'Eeei Akristofo) no no'(Meaning Christians for you). Well, i think a general knowledge of it will do (Remember, In as much as we aren't OF this world, we are IN it)

So RESHUFFLE is simply an act of reorganizing or rearranging something. It also means an  interchange in the positions of members of a team, especially government ministers by mostly the president or head of state to whom a sovereign power have been vested in.

Enough of the political meanings. We're looking at Spiritual  Reshuffles here. 

Spiritual Reshuffles is when the sovereign God in his own wisdom decides to change, turn around or move us from one situation, place or calling which are mostly uncomfortable yet are always best for us& in line with his will  for us. 

Spiritual Reshuffles extend to every single Christian. I believe no one Christian is immune from this and oh yes God does reshuffles too. It's only that his is with the purest of intentions which we mostly don't understand. (Especially, when SEEN in the negative)

Let's look at some few here:

PASTORS&MEN OF GOD FIRST
-"ooh God why? from this big church which I've solely toiled&founded from the UK.
And you're telling me to move to the new branch in Praprababida with no network signal and where Bicycle transport is rarely seen. Aba God!!!"

- "I can’t do this oo...to where? Qatar...to evangelize ..ooh it's not me. Check the Prophecy again.
It must be someone else."

- "Osofo(Pastor), God is moving you from Bogni in the Northern Region to the East Legon branch in the Greater Accra where the church is in serious turmoil due to the Homosexuality issues .We have prayed&the mantle fell on you"

TO YOU:(The Christian)

-God is telling you to temporarily stop your singing ministry and go&settle in some remote part of Kumasi. What to do?... may be unclear for now.

-You are still at sea as to why God has told you to clearly leave your fat paying professional job to start that less- fancied mushroom business.

-All of sudden you hear a voice telling you to let go your pride& status and move around in cars and your neighbourhood doing Evangelism.

In all I ask you?...Will you obey?

These are what we call SPIRITUAL RESHUFFLES.

Before I continue, Let me say know that it isn't all times that the situations above and even more are from God or his workings. It may be schemes of (evil minded) people to knock us out or the devil to derail us from our purpose irrespective of its genuineness. 

This is where DISCERNMENT comes in and you can know it if you only seek for it earnestly even without this particular gifting. (It may come directly or indirectly)

A colleague at the office or even a Head Pastor may even scheme because he feels threatened, you're noted not to be on his side or out of sheer annoyance. 

However, I'm sure you remember this verse: 'All things work together for the good of those who love him and are called according to his purpose.'

Yes, they may or may not be God's plan for you but as you face them never forget to turn to him and ask for his leading.

However, Spiritual Reshuffles genuinely exist and as intimated are difficult to take even for Pastors who are a classical feature in this. Some woefully fail at this.

It will surprise you to know a lot of our men of God especially are living in disobedience of a SPIRITUAL RESHUFFLE they should have obeyed.In fact, they still think they are okay and very 'spiritual' whiles they are possibly under a time tomb or even suffering the consequences.

Let's look at the reasons why God choose to do these needful Reshuffles from time to time:
*To save lives momentarily
*Train&equip us for  greater purpose
*Those there are his flocks too and need to be cared.
*That's what he's destined for you. (His Blessings for you)
* For his glory to be seen.

So you see...

In all,  I say EVERY CHRISTIAN SHOULD BE READY FOR SPIRITUAL RESHUFFLES FOR THE MASTER DOES IT FROM TIME TO TIME& IT IS ALWAYS FOR OUR GOOD.

Read Acts 8:26-40, a classical one happened with Philip & the Ethiopian Eunuch.

SO I SAY:
'SPIRITUAL RESHUFFLES'

'FF' BIRTHDAY QUOTES'

I wanted to do this, this Saturday on my QUOTES edition and see, God brought it a little earlier

Sensing something different today on ON THIS MORNING.

Hmmm...it's the birthday of one great man of God in our church (TRINITY BAPTIST CHURCH, PATASI-KUMASI)

He's been a blessing and continues to be a blessing. Surely, what God has put in him will fully manifest. So this GENERATION...WATCH OUT!!!

We're not just doing birthday stuff. You know with ON THIS MORNING, the message is never lost

He shares messages mostly in the morning like I do.
I therefore bring you 'FF' QUOTES TODAY'. He's FRANK FOSU.

Just love some selected few:

What you have gone through becomes a reference point at the verge of your breakthrough. There is a DAVID in the making. [1 SAMUEL 17:34-37] 
~Frank Fosu~

God chooses to credit our mess in life with His mercy we do not deserve. When you sow mercy, you reap mercy. [MATTHEW 5:7]
~Frank Fosu~

Zion is the place where God services His children both physically and spiritually. This checks on every wear and tear in your system. [PSALM 84:7]
Appear in Zion this morning.
~Frank Fosu~

Money must be our servant but not our master. We have become servants of this earthly virtue and fallen prey to the greed and glutton syndrome. [Matthew 6:24]
~Frank Fosu~

God is not solely interested in releasing wealth TO us but THROUGH us. We can command wealth zones if only we have the right revelation of kingdom prosperity. [PROVERBS 11:24-25]
~Frank Fosu~

When Christ becomes your ultimate focus, you become the focus of the world. Christ is the utmost priority. (ACTS 17:6)
~Frank Fosu~

When you are complete in Christ, you don't compete with men. I declare your opportune season of divine completion.
(COLOSSIANS 2:9-10)
~Frank Fosu~

Interestingly, God views the happenings of our life just like watching a replay match between Manchester and Arsenal. God already knows the final scores. (ISAIAH 46:10)

I have chosen to create a proactive forgiveness account due to all the seeds of hurts people sow in interpersonal relationships. I freely forgive. (EPHESIANS 4:32)
~Frank Fosu~

Every problem, challenge, opposition, persecution, obstacle, hurdle of life has an expiry date. Fix your gaze on both the crown and the cross. (JOB 38:8-11)
~Frank Fosu~

The pain of Christianity is the cross and the gain of Christianity is the crown. Bear your cross with grace and wear your crown with joy. (2 TIMOTHY 4:6-8)

Raising altars at strategic places and specific times is crucial for the aversion of negative trends and tendencies in our lives and endeavours. [1 SAMUEL 24:15-25]
Lift up a PRAYER ALTAR.
~Frank Fosu~

That ends it. He's a man of PRAYER so I chose to end on that.

SO I SAY:
HOPE YOU'VE BEEN BLESSED &JOIN ME IN SAYING

HAPPY BIRTHDAY OSOFO

AIR- A KEY ELEMENT DESCRIBING OUR GOD.

You remember:
AIR- A KEY ELEMENT DESCRIBING OUR GOD.

We did PART 1 last Friday. Today, we continue with PART 2.
As usual, with the Part 2, we turn to the scriptures and see how they are captured.

As I said the last time, AIR is mentioned few times in both the old and new testament.

However, its key role of giving describing God is never discounted.

You remember this  key verse  in Genesis 2:7 "Then the LORD God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the BREATH OF LIFE, and the man became a living being"

This forms a pivot of all our existence as human.  Out of the AIR that came out of his nostrils gave YOU HAVE LIFE.
(AIR equaling LIFE here)

Other verses in the old testament are all embodied in the use of fowls& birds.
Check out the verses:

GENESIS 1:28
And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the FOWL OF THE AIR....

GENESIS 2:20
And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.

DEUTERONOMY 4:17
or like any animal on earth or any bird that flies in the air,...

The New testament is no different from the old as it also dwell mostly on birds and  fowls.
MATTHEW 6:26
Look at the BIRDS OF THE AIR; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?

The other different meaning  is in:
1 Corinthians 14:9
So likewise ye, except ye utter by the tongue words easy to be understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? for ye shall speak into the air.

EPHESIANS 2:2
Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience.

Now these two AIR Scriptures tell us of two Spirits that back the forces of AIR surrounding us.

Of course, AIR is of God but there are evil forces/spirits who are allowed to operate within these atmosphere(AIR)& God has given them a timespan.(Rev. 2:10)

This tells us of the need to be careful and not just engage ourselves in any atmosphere we find ourselves.

Essentially,BE IN TUNE WITH THE SPIRIT at all times through word study&prayer and be safe.

So I want you to do this for me.
One of these days, go to an 'open place' with a whole breeze of AIR(could be through an excursion)

Aside the panoramic view, close your eyes in meditation, feel the AIR and let his SPIRIT speak or give you a vivid description of our GOD.

SO I SAY:
'AIR IS A KEY ELEMENT DESCRIBING OUR GOD'

Savior i come, quiet my soul
Remember,
Redemptions hill
where your blood was spilled for my ransom

Everything i once held dear.
I count it all as lost.

Lead me to the cross
where your love poured out.
Bring me to my knees
lord i lay me down.
Rid me of myself
i belong to you
Lead me, lead me to the cross

You were as I
Tempted and trialed
Human
The word became flesh
bore my sin to death
now you're risen

Everything i once held dear
I count it all as lost

Lead me to the cross
where your love poured out.
Bring me to my knees
Lord i lay me down
Rid me of myself
I belong to you
Lead me, Lead me to the cross...to your heart
lead me to your heart...

JUST 5 MINUTES

‘JUST 5 MINUTES’ is today's title for your All-Round Devotional ON THIS MORNING.

So let's start  like this:

This is what we all preach,canvas and admonish all the time. That is,to have Quality  Devotional Time in word and prayer with our maker.

The quality here meaning being able to:
* Spend 'long' fruitful hours in word study and meditation
* And also spend 'lasting' time in prayer based on the word.....

This must be consistent in order to really know & receive deeper revelations, unravel mysteries and know God's plans& purposes for your life&his people.

Now, this is the reality.

It takes someone who has grown&matured in the faith, discipline in 'all' areas among others to be able to do the above.

Therefore, this is what God says I should tell you.

He understands all the following about you...ooh yes he does. They are:

*That you are born-again, new or a baby in the faith

* That you're coming from a serious backsliding experience.

*That you're struggling to have that relationship with him because of your new job and its arduous demands, the humanly repetitive gargantuan sin &generally pressures of life.

Oswald Chambers said
" It's not the thing on which we spend the most time that moulds us, but the thing that exerts the greatest power. FIVE MINUTES with God is worth more than the rest of the day."

Surely, we are never saying that be okay with just 5 minutes or complacent with that when clearly you can do far better. This is exactly what today's message seeks to discourage.

We're rather encouraging the many people  i believe who are weak or new in Christ to start gradually, take those baby step building up to MATURITY& HOLINESS.(which is our ultimate goal as Christians)

Yes, God knows such people, knows their greatest needs,their weaknesses and provides for them.

JUST DON'T COUNT YOURSELF AMONG THOSE WHO MAY REQUIRE A 5-MINUTE START IN THEIR WALK WITH GOD WHEN CLEARLY YOU CAN DO FAR BETTER.

In furtherance of the above points are these scriptures:

2 Peters 3:18
"...but grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ To Him be the glory, both now and to the day of eternity."

Ephesians 3:17-19
"....So that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God.

1 Peter 2:2
"Like newborn babies, long for the pure milk of the word, so that by it you may grow in respect to salvation,..."

Colossians 3:16
"Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God."

1 Timothy 4:15
"Take pains with these things; be absorbed in them, so that your progress will be evident to all."

If you're having trouble establishing or re-establishing your relationship with God; why don’t YOU start with just 5 mins and be committed,consistent, discipline NOT being complacent.

God values your 5 minutes...Just 5 Minutes...yes 5 quality minutes in your initial walk with him.

With that, I know automatically it will lead to 10, 15, 30 mins..then an hour and that will be your offshoot for building that quality personal relationship with your maker.

SO I SAY:
“JUST 5 MINUTES”

MEDITATE!!!

Oooh yea
MEDITATE!
         MEDITATE!!
                 MEDITATE!!!

It's meditate Sunday and today we look at Psalm 1.

A very sweet verse if you read before. Let's go:

1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

2 But his delight is in the law of the
LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

SO ALL I WILL SAY IS:
MEDITATE!!!

KEY ELEMENTS DESCRIBING OUR GOD- 'AIR' (PART 1)

We continue with our series
KEY ELEMENTS DESCRIBING OUR GOD.

'AIR' is our focus today. (PART 1)

So far we've looked at  WATER and LIGHT and how key they are, in their apt and perfect description of God.

As has been the format, we look at Air in its generality before we submerge ourselves into its spirituality and source.
AIR from the scientific angle)-The mixture of invisible odourless, colourless, tasteless gases (as nitrogen and oxygen) that  surrounds the earth.

The sky-the firmament, A giant void, of nothingness.

An atmospheric movement; a breeze or wind.

Other definitions relate to:
To express an opinion. A tune or short melodious song.

Okayyy, I love  the first scientific definition about the INVISIBLE MIXTURE OF GASEOUS SUBSTANCES.

Hear me here, does that suggest to you of its supernatural source.

Obviously, the naturally cool, breathless indescribable feel that AIR brings can never be made by man  but by God himself. (Chrck its artificial counterpart FAN)

The Bible doesn't specifically tell us of the creation of AIR but  then he created the Sky and its firmament.
(Gen 1:1-6)

Naturally and obviously in-built in it is the AIR we feel and overabuse all the time.
It's around us 24/7 even in the darkest part but we mostly fail to recognise, appreciate its true meaning and essence till...

Take this...till by some unfortunate circumstances,you find yourself stuck in a very enclosed area where AIR is fast fading out.

Until your screams& your shouts meet the helping hand of a good samaritan; you really get to understand that THE AIR WE BREATHE IS LIFE.

Remember, this song
THE AIR WE BREATHE, IT ALL BELONGS TO YOU

Gen 2:7
Then the LORD God formed a man from the dust of the ground and BREATHED INTO HIS NOSTRILS THE BREATH OF LIFE, and the MAN BECAME a LIVING BEING.
(Our focal passage)

Air appears few times in the Bible but its key essence of revealing God's nature is intact.

Join me for Part 2 as we dig deeper into the Scriptures for more.

SO I SAY:
'AIR IS A KEY ELEMENT DESCRIBING OUR GOD'
