THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST Part 2

Acts 9: 1-8
Having a revelation of Jesus Christ is a life changing experience.
Jesus is a life changer and when He reveals Himself to you your life must change for the better. Saul's life turned around completely after an encounter that revealed Jesus to him.
Having a revelation of Jesus is an experience every believer should crave for, for it has loads of benefits for us now and in the world to come. Mark 10:29,30

Our investments in the Kingdom is never a waste. Matthew 19:29
Jesus is the most important man who ever lived. Jesus is the most powerful person who ever walked the face of this earth and He is the encounter every person should have.
He was 100% divine, yet He was 100% human when He walked the face of this earth.
Jesus and His Kingdom is the investment every business man and woman should make.
Jesus's teaching ministry was unparalleled.
He spoke with authority and taught like nobody else ever taught.
His ministry was creative, fresh, dynamic and colourful. You cannot invest in God's Kingdom with your time, talent, gifts and treasure and go wrong. Matthew 6:33

His wisdom is still being looked into and researched after walking on this earth over 2000 years ago. The mind of Jesus is miraculous and unique. 1 Corinthians 2:16
His significance and importance hasn't reduced since He ascended back to heaven. With the passage of time His relevance and importance seems to be increasing. Generation after generation will hear of Him if He tarries and His people and impact will continue to grow.

Kingdoms have come and gone but the Kingdom of God which Jesus brought is ever growing and expanding. Psalm 145:13
Kings have come and gone but Jesus is the King death could not limit. Jesus is the Master of death.
2 Timothy 1:10, Isaiah 25:8, Hebrews 2:14
Jesus humbled evil Spirits, manifested miracle money, conquered death, cast out sicknesses and diseases, fixed mangled bodies, turned water into wine, released understanding to people, He sent the Holy Ghost, He forgave sin, He came with a Kingdom, He reconciled humanity back to God, He overcame all temptation, He healed blind eyes, He made the lame walk, He walked on water, exhibited divine wisdom and raised the dead.

This is the kind of leader christians are privileged to follow. And following Jesus has privileges. Matthew 12:15, Luke 9:11, Matthew 20:34, Matthew 4:18-20
Even after having an encounter with the Lord Jesus it is important to seek His face for more revelations of Him. One encounter with Jesus is not all there is to Him. Philippians 3:10
Jesus is one with the Father. Whoever is united with the Lord is one with Him in Spirit. When you become one with Jesus evil spirits loose their power over you because Jesus is one with the Father who is the King of Spirits. 1 Corinthians 6:17, John 10:30, Hebrews 12:9

The body of Christ has a responsibility to pray more than ever before that Jesus will start revealing Himself to us more than ever before, and to our family and loved ones.
If truly we want revivals in our church, the body of Christ, among our family members and if we want to see a harvest of souls for the Lord and bring repentance to the world we will need to double our efforts and pray more.
If we don't want to see those we love- friends and relatives end up in the wrong side of eternity we will have to act promptly and quickly.

For us to be motivated for the task ahead we need to have revelations of Jesus Christ.
It was encounters with Jesus and revelations of Him that made the chief of sinners become one of the greatest soul winning instruments in the hand of God. Saul who became Paul.
It was revelations of Jesus that made the disciples of Jesus willing to die for the gospel.
It was revelations of Jesus that made the Apostles and followers of Jesus in Acts 17:6 "turn the world upside down" to God's glory.

Martyrs of Christ who died for the Lord over the years didn't mind doing so because they are men and women who had caught a revelation of Jesus.
They knew the Lord whose cause they were dying for is a master who is worth it.

The questions to us today are-
a) what are we doing for God?
b) do we really know Him?
c) are we investing where it really matters- in His Kingdom?
d) can we truthfully and honestly say we know Jesus as Lord and savior?

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18...

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...

Healing For Your Soul Wounds!

Malachi 4:2 Your soul is a vital part of your life. Your soul is part of who you are. Your soul needs to function well for things to go well with you. Your prosperity is linked to your soul. 3 John 2 Your soul is the decision making center of your life. God cares about the state of your soul. God created your soul and wants your soul to function well. It is the will of God that your soul is preserved until the coming back of Jesus Christ. 1 Thessalonians 5:23 Your soul is made up of your will, your mind and your emotions. You need your will, your mind and your emotions to function properly and to be regarded as a well balanced human being. Your soul is valuable and the enemy wants it. Your soul is part of the reason you are saved and a part of God's kingdom. 2 Corinthians 4:3,4 We are spirits who have a soul and live in a body. When your soul is wounded As our natural bodies can be affected, so can our souls. As we can have physical wounds and sores caused b...
