“And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, where art thou?” Genesis 3:9 (KJV) Over the years, religion has taught us that God is quick to turn His back on us, especially when we do something wrong. So, we have become very distant from God and will rather relate with God from a distance. The truth is that God desires intimacy with you...

“Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power…” Hebrews 1:3 (KJV) Everything is held up by the Word of God. If the word is taken out, everything will dematerialize and will fall apart. That’s how important the word is. So, I challenge you today, if there is anything you should...

“Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise”. John 5:19 (KJV) Beloved, if you want to prosper and continue to prosper in whatsoever you are doing, you have to get into the Word. The bible...

“Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever”. 1 Peter 1:23 (KJV) The word of God is incorruptible; therefore anyone born of the word is also incorruptible. Our text scripture says, being born again not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible by the word of God, which lives and abides forever. This means that...

“Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth”. John 17:17(KJV) These are unusual times and everyone is saying, can’t you see that things are not working and there are no answers. The world is in a cup of trembling and many are wondering, what’s going on. No one has the answer. All the postulation, calculations, and predictions are falling flat. But I come to present...

“Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed thereto according to thy word.” Psalm 119:9 (KJV) If the wise man is telling us to give attention to the word of God, then give attention to the word of God. God is saying that we should be addicted to the word. When we talk about addiction, it is not something you do occasionally. It’s...

“My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings,” Proverbs 4:20 (KJV)   There are many things that people are busy about and yet the most important thing at this period is generally ignored. In Luke 10:38, Jesus went to the house of Mary and Martha and scripture tells us that Martha was busy with a lot of things while ignoring the needful thing....

“But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her”. Luke 10:42 (KJV)   In a world that is filled with uncertainty, insecurity, and hopelessness, and in a world where there are all kinds of blood-shedding, confusion, and violence in a dimension that’s never been seen before and more especially at this pandemic, it is so vitally...

“These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full”. John 15:11 (KJV) Beloved, considering the type of challenges that we face in these days, my counsel to you is that you should never allow anything to cause you to lose your joy. Make up your mind to rather be excited about what God is...

“And Samuel said unto Jesse, Are here all thy children? And he said, There remaineth yet the youngest, and, behold, he keepeth the sheep. And Samuel said unto Jesse, Send and fetch him: for we will not sit down till he come hither”. 1 Samuel 16:11 (KJV)   The question I want to ask today is what do you do when you are going through great contradictions...
