NOW THAT YOU KNOW

NOW THAT YOU KNOW Know what you asked? That's; Salvation comes of the Lord and not by any form of fretting or good works, why then don't you go to Him for yours. A delay is too deadly a time to waste in this case. I'm also convinced you know by now that Jesus is coming. Yes, you have this conviction in your heart. You can't afford to continue living your life the same way compared to those in the world. It's brought to your knowledge this day again as a reminder that, WE BROUGHT NOTHING TO THIS WORLD NEITHER WOULD YOU TAKE ANYTHING OUT OF IT. I'm sure you know this.... All this your flamboyant and glamorous but questionable lifestyle is too costly and risky to put your mansion on high on mortgage... If at you know you have one. Without gainsaying, you should have known that, striving with your Maker makes you to be in the same category with a potsherd... What's potsherd here? You're reduced to a piece. Also, you should have heard this and com...

TAKE NOTHING - Part III

TAKE NOTHING - Part III Are we any better with all we've taken? Or are we any less for not taking them. The children of Levi would have thought that God was cruel and wicked at first for not giving them an inheritance alongside their brethren. This could be mostly ascribed to them not knowing the mind of God. When God told them not to take anything or share with the remaining tribe, they would have felt used, cheated or wasted; just like most of us do feel nowadays. We go about complaining, nagging and murmuring our lack, wants and needs. Is God not aware? For your Heavenly Father know that ye have need of them, saith Jesus. Now to the Levites, they had no inheritance to share with their brethren...did that make them destitute, wretched or any poorer? At all. THE PRIESTS THE LEVITES, AND SHALL HAVE NO PART NOR INHERITANCE WITH ISRAEL:...Deuteronomy:18:1. If you were to be in their shoes then, what would your reaction be? They followed well the hymn which says, LET'S GO TO...

WHAT WILL BE, WILL BE

WHAT WILL BE, WILL BE Would God that everyone be successful, but surely it has to be done, to be. I hate it when something unpleasant happens but what lacerate me the most is the comment people give as "what will be will be." This statement makes it sound as if we cannot do anything about it. I disagree for through Christ I can do all things. Brethren, if you prepare well, you will be successful, what will be will be. But if you fail to prepare, for sure your failure will find you out. Yes, what will be will be. You have the whole day to build yourself spiritually, intellectually, and physically. If you do, what will be will be and if you don't still on the same lane of history. There are always better ways of doing things. Whenever we hear the above statement, we should know that if something should have been done; who knows maybe what will be won't be anymore. There was a widow in the times(days) of Elijah when famine was at climax. This situation and condition ...
