Isaiah 38:1-9 The text passage is an insightful story that shows the power and speed of prayer. Hezekiah the king of Judah had an illness that wasn't responding to treatment. Hezekiah overcame his predicament by turning to the right person. King Hezekiah turned to God and he received a positive turnaround in his health. Like king Hezekiah we may find ourselves in situations that are beyond us, we may find ourselves in conditions that defy every form of help we have sought whether it's medical, herbal, therapies, physiotherapy, exercise, or even spiritual help. During such times, who and where you go to for help matters greatly, it will determine whether you overcome what you are going through or not. When God's word came to king Hezekiah through the prophet Isaiah that he would not overcome his sickness but die, he was smart enough to turn to the only person who could heal/help him- God. Many people accept it as their fate when unfortunate reports come to them. People oft

 James 2:13 The latter times is like the days of Noah. Matthew 24:37 You will need mercy to survive these times, the mercy of God. Mercy is wonderful, mercy is a wonderful virtue, Mercy is also a person. The scriptures show us all the wonderful things the mercy of God can do to a life and destiny. In every generation, individuals and societies have benefitted from the mercy of God. Humanity will always need God's mercy. In Noah's day, Noah found grace with God and he and his family benefitted from God's mercy. 1 Peter 3:20 They were preserved when the known world was perishing. The mercy of God has preservation power . Lamentations 3:22,23 In these times you need God to preserve you. We are in the end times- a tough season spiritually, economically, mentally, and socially upon the earth. As the days of Noah, the end times will be a time when fallen angel interference will be great upon the earth. Spiritually and technologically, this is happening already. We are truly in t

 Isaiah 61:1 God has made soul healing available. God heals our emotions, He's made provision for the healing of our souls. He binds up the broken hearted, being broken hearted is an emotional matter. The quality of our lives cannot be better than the state of our souls. Your emotions is a part of your soul. Your reasoning faculty, your mind  is a part of your soul. Your will is a part of your soul. Your will is your ability to be determined, your resolve, the ability to make up your mind and stick with it. A person's mental health whether good or bad is a reflection of the persons soul. Your soul is essential to your salvation. You believe the gospel through your soul- your ability to process information with your mind. Romans 10:10 It is through our soul we feed and nourish our spirit man. Your soul processes information which then reaches the spirit in you. Human beings are made up of their spirit, soul and body. 1 Thessalonians 5:23 Our body cloths our soul and spirit. Your

 Romans 9:15 You get what you expect. What we expect in our lives matters. Jesus left an instruction for His followers to tarry in Jerusalem until they are endued with power from on high. Luke 24:49 It's only 120 people who expected the enduement with power Jesus spoke about that remained in the upper room. God honored their waiting, God honored their expectation. According to Biblical scholars there were 500 people waiting in the upper room in Jerusalem, with the passage of time they reduced from 500 to 120. This means 380 people missed out on the day of Pentecost. They missed out on the promise of Jesus, they missed out on the fulfillment of prophecy, they missed out on being part of history, they missed out on being part of what is believed to be the birth of the church, they missed out on the supernatural. The 120 who tarried until the promise of Jesus was fulfilled are those who kept their expectation alive. They endured and waited until their expectation of Jesus's promis

 It is with great pleasure and gratitude to God that your kingdom minded, Jesus focused, teaching ministry turns nine years old. This time, nine years ago, The Light Of Jesus Christ was being born. Glory Halleluyah! It has been nine years of God's faithfulness, God's mercy, and God's support to us as a family and church group. Thanks to everyone who has been part of the journey. You are appreciated. Your well wishes and prayers have gone a long way. We continue to value your support. We covet your prayers at this time. We value your intercession. Much Love!

Mark 10:46-52  The story of blind Bartimaeus which our text passage is about is a classic example of the power of the mercy of God. Crying out for the mercy of God is never wasted time. There is no issue of life the mercy of God cannot solve. There is no matter of life the mercy of God cannot tackle. There is no situation beyond the mercy of God. The mercy of God keeps us from the traps of life. God in His mercy gives wisdom to the man He choses to keep, to deliver him from the 'forces' that devalues, reduces, and preys on his life. Proverbs 6:23-29 Mercy changes our story for the better. Mercy is the compassion of God, it is the forbearance of God towards us, it is God being lenient with us. Mercy is what makes God withhold punishment, it is what makes God give forgiveness. The mercy of God is what makes God look away from our sins and gives us a new beginning. Hebrews 8:12 The mercy of God is what makes God not deal with us for our wrong doing as we deserve. Psalm 103:10 Merc
