2015: A Year of Marching Out (4)
Every step you’ll make after reading this article shall be transmuted and magnified! Today, as you begin to move, your enemies, oppositions (spiritual and physical) shall begin to hear sounds and effects that will make them run away! And this movement shall also bring about total, all-round breakthrough in your life! The lepers did not only save themselves but the entire nation from starvation. I imagine how the king and the people showed gratitude to those lepers that they had thrown away? I believe they were now brought into the city as heroes, saviors and very wealthy men. Celebrated! The stone that the builders rejected has become the chief corner stone! This is what stepping out in faith does for you. I see you being celebrated even by the people who had rejected you in the past.
For Miracles to OccurMiracles are frequently defined as events in our lives that defy mortal explanation, which only occur as a result of divine intervention. Many Christians apply this definition when they see infants born without any physical or mental defects in a world of prevalent disease, and see the births as ordinary occurrences, instead of as miracles, the rule instead of the extraordinary exception. To many people, the children born with infirmity and then suddenly healed by the power of God are the true miracles. Nonetheless, Jesus has told us that miracles, large and small, will occur every day of our lives as we, 1) humbly have enduring faith in him, 2) overcome our fear of doing what he has commanded us to do, and 3) by placing ourselves unconditionally under the wise and loving will of God. Giving God the praise for things that occur, and the things that don’t occur requires a firm commitment to live the faith that we proclaim to possess. By praising God as much for a healthy baby born without defect, as one suddenly healed of defect we will better express our love for God. The following essay explores these thoughts.
Reigning As KingsSince the late 70’s the Church began to hear a great deal about how the Lord wants us to “reign as Kings” and to “prosper.” Many preachers have become incredibly wealthy by preaching this message. What is truly sad is that we did not and still do not have the discernment to see through the subtle error that has been sown in the misapplication of this kind of preaching.
Empires 7, 8, and 9 ComingWe die and go to Heaven. But what of the believer’s future here on Earth?
The Spirit of Jesus ChristThe difference between Christianity and all other religions is Christianity has the Holy Spirit. Without the Holy Spirit Christianity would be just another man made religion. What is the Holy Spirit? What is the purpose of the Holy Spirit? How do you know if you have the Holy Spirit? and is the Holy Spirit really necessary for today?
The AccountingHave we not been taught since we were little to live in such an honorable way so as to not need to give an accounting? Have we not been taught that if we do things in such a way as to maintain a good conscience that our purpose is plain?
2015 – A Year For DiscernmentOver the past decade or so when the time of the New Year has began to approach, I have made it my habit to wait upon the Lord to see what He wanted to say about the coming year. The year 2015 has been a bit different in this regard in that I have been impressed again and again to tell the body of Christ that this is going to be a year in which we will need an increased level of “discernment.”
Great Sinner!Don’t give me that old religious stuff! Why not, what if it holds the key to a powerful and true explanation for our morally disintegrating world? And then, just what do I mean by this old word ‘sinner’? Already, we’re stirring enough questions to aim at a few answers. And I must make clear at the outset that whatever I mean by ‘great sinner’, I am not setting up grades of severity of sin. Is this all religious gibberish, or is it going to make sense? Let’s see.
