When God Arises!

  Numbers 10:35 Our God is a God of action. He is a living, productive, creative and powerful Spirit. He is no idol or carved image, He is the Creator not a creation.

Restoration Of Fortunes

 Jeremiah 33 vs 7 God is a restorer. He restores that which was stolen whether they are opportunities, years, youthfulness, virtues, health or stars. We can be restored spiritually and physically. Restoration should be part of your life story, it is part of God's script for you. Zechariah 9:12 Restoration has been factored into the story of your life because God hates waste and if you are not restored your life or parts of it will be wasted. John 6:12 Restoration is evidence of the presence of God's kingdom in a life. Those in God's kingdom are entitled to restoration, restoration is what God wants for humanity. When Jesus visited the home of Zacchaeus the tax collector, Zacchaeus promised to restore four fold  what he had taken from everyone unjustly. The presence of Jesus in his home compelled Zacchaeus to restore those who he had taken from unjustly.  Then Jesus replied "today salvation has come to this house because he (Zacchaeus) is also a son of Abraham, for the ...

The Realm Of Instant Miracles

  Mark 5:27-34 There are times we need immediate miracles. There are times we need instant miracles because of the urgency of the situation we find ourselves in. Human beings can find themselves requiring an instant miracle because we are people who live in time.  A lot of things concerning us are time dependent. Our lives, our destiny, and opportunities are all wrapped in time. A miracle occurs when God intervenes in a life or situation to fix what is beyond man to do. When you need God to do for you what you can't do for yourself and what people can't do for you; you need a miracle! When you need the miracle to happen within a time frame and your situation shows you will be in trouble if it doesn't happen in that time frame, you need an instant miracle! The beauty of such situations is that God loves to glorify Himself in circumstances like that. In the scriptures we see examples of people who needed an urgent miracle, and they got it! You can get your instant, urgent mir...

Work With Your Angel

Hebrews 1:14 God would have you work with the angel(s) he has assigned to your life. It is what He expects of you if you are in Christ Jesus. Be sensitive to the Spirit realm, there is an angel beside you, even angels. This is not strange. While it is alright to be cautious as ministers of the gospel, I have a responsibility to teach people about the dynamics of the spiritual realm. In my doing so, spiritual things become real to people and they learn and know what is available in the spirit realm to them and how to apply them. We have to present the things of the spirit to the world in such a way that its not only truthful, relatable and believable, we have to let them know how spiritual things work. Many Christians have found themselves stuck due to a lack of knowledge of what they should know. These are facts about the believer and their guardian angel: i) You and your guardian angel are from the same source- the Father of all Spirits. ii) You and your guardian angel are from the sa...

Your Guardian Angel

  Acts 12:1-15 Our text passage shows us one of the cleanest prison escape ever. Imagine how king Herod must have felt and the guards assigned to ensure Peter remained in prison. They must have been baffled the following morning trying to figure out the mystery. By an angelic intervention, God mocked them. By an angelic intervention Peter was set free. It happened because the church prayed, there was a group of intercessors interceding for Peter. They didn't want to lose Peter the way they had just lost James. Peter was delivered overnight, the night before he was to be executed! The interesting thing about Peter's deliverance is that the angel was right beside Peter. It is the prayers of the saints/church that activated this angel. I believe this angel had always been with Peter. He was most likely Peter's guardian angel. The prayers of the saints which was constant made this angel bring about a deliverance for Peter. Even those who prayed for Peter were shocked when Peter...

God's Leading & The Challenges Of Life

  Exodus 14:6-12 God was leading the children of Israel and their leader Moses, but they still found themselves stuck with the Red sea before them and Pharoah and six hundred chariots chasing behind them with the intention of destroying them . They couldn't go forward and they couldn't turn backwards. To go forward would lead to them drowning, to stay in one spot was to be killed or taken back to Egypt as slaves by the Egyptians, to turn backwards was to hand themselves over to Pharaoh and his riders which would defeat their whole liberation effort and make Moses and God liars. They were stuck! This is where God's leading had brought them to. God's leading is not evidence life will always be smooth sailing for us. What God's leading ensures  is divine presence- God will be with you despite the storm, despite the challenge. When God leads us, it doesn't mean the journey will always be smooth or easy but it doesn't change the fact that God is the one leading. ...
