"Marriage and Love"

"come let us get up early to the vineyards." let us see if the vine flourish... there will I give thee my loves." (Songs of Solomon 7:12)

Come, my beloved, let us go forth into the field; let us lodge in the villages.” (Songs of Solomon 7:11)

Marriages fail because it is devoid of fun. Fun cease shortly after we’ve tied the knot. We do nothing about achieving bonding. Perhaps we feel marital bonding will fall like manna from like the days of old.

Solomon gives us a clue on the importance of taking our spouse out for sightseeing and relaxation. He was quick to reveal what takes place between the married couples on such outing “…there will I give thee my loves!”

Continuous courting in marriage union refreshes the two people involved. Sightseeing involves intimate fellowship and opportunity to once again appreciate each other. If properly handled, communication becomes the major actor; and in the process doubts and fears are cleared. Sometimes such outings could be a holiday together. (Just the two of you) The result is that you would both have succeeded to fill such outings or holidays, you carry each other's presences.

It is something that is easily observed in the woman- she is seen laughing and behaving like the first day she was proposed to

"Don't Be Alarmed" Go Back!

The days of the end of the times are here, so do not be alarmed by the things you see going on in the world today. The prophesies of the scriptures must be fulfilled as concerning the last days, but by who?Like it is written; that, the son of man shall be betrayed, but woe unto the man by whose hand the saviour shall be betrayed:Luke 22:48.The scriptures are given to us for; correction , edification and so on, but we have the right to choose on whose side we want to belong.

I have taken a careful look into the happenings around , and have seen the attitude of many, especially the custodians of our great faith(Christians) in Jesus Christ and have discovered that truly; many are called ,but few are chosen. we are even sliding into the time of scarcity of faith, the time of it does not matter, the time of anything goes. I was in a church youth night programme a couple of years back and was ashamed. The programme was nothing short of a night party. The only thing missing was public romancing between boys and girls in the auditorium that night. I was one of the guest artist that night, and I ministered in one of my favourite songs"Run Run". the first line of the song says" the day of the Lord shall be like Sodom, the day of the Lord shall be like Gomorrah and he that have ears let him hear what the spirit is saying"... suddenly the energetic youths became very uninteresting longer; it dawned on me that; very few are expecting the coming of the Master. a song that should give us hope that one day we all shall be going home with our Master.

we must get ready for the separation, we must go back to where we started from. Can you just look back and see the day you first believed. can you feel the fire you felt that day? The desire to serve the Lord was unquenchable, you could dare anything for the Lord. from whence did you fall from you daughters of Zion? The Lord was proud of you, He spoke of you before the angel as a dependable one. one good thing is that He is still looking forward to that partnership. His gifting and calling are without repentance. Romans 11:29

"The Divided House"

God cannot be boxed or restricted in His move. So many of us have "traditionalized" God and indoctrinated the christian faith to suite ourselves. The issue of denomination has hampered the growth of Christianity as many work for their denominations rather than work for God.
Churches have abandoned the commission to win souls and have embraced capacity building and so on.The desire to remain un-scattered like the builders of the tower of babel has instituted the decline in the growth rate of Christianity. The commandment is:Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Matt: 28:19.

The woman by the well of sameria preached the message of division, but the Lord Jesus corrected her wrong doctrines; John 4:21 Jesus said to her, "Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem. 4:22 You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, for salvation is from the Jews. 4:23 But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such as these to worship him. 4:24 God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth."

Yes there may be increase in the rate of church planting, but does that reflect in the faith growth? Many join churches to "belong", but not really to be safe or saved, as there are lots of competition out there  among churches; many claiming to be "mega", and others; the "best". Many have adopted corporate identities to be able to sell and sell-out.
we need to go back to our first love, doing what the Master wants of us. We did not choose our-self, but He choose us, and commissioned us for His glory.

True Worship Of God

True worship of God is an expression of love and loyalty unto Him. God desires us to worship Him in spirit and in truth. Worship from us is likened unto sacrifice unto God;"Therefore I urge you brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living  sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God - this is your spiritual act of worship."  - Romans 12:1


The quality of worship we offer unto Him, show the value we place on Him. True and sincere worship unto God is one of the sweetest part of our relationship with Him; it is an intense affectionate display of love unto Him; declaring His glory, thus provoking His presence.

I can still remember most of my encounter with God were born out of heartfelt worship that changes lives.


God is jealous God, who does not share His glory with another.He is a God of complete devotion, who is devoted in loving us and expresses His love unto us.

Church vs God

Believe it or not, we are living in the end time.Mark 13:19 For in those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be. With all the happenings around us, it is quite clear that the prophecy about the end time are been fulfilled day by day. It really amazes me on the stand point of the church, it all appears to me that the church of God is now working against God.
So many have neglected the calling of God, and are fulfilling their own personal call(ambition). People are no more interested in the mind of God concerning the dying world; instead, the church seems to be going the same direction with the world. Ephesians 5:15 See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,
16 Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
Many are boastful of their achievements, most times taking the glory upon them self. They speak of how much they have in the banks,etc. 2 Timothy 3:1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, ...

Know Yourself Part 1

God is the Almighty one who does not change, but changes situations. He is never moved by complains, rather He responds to our faith in Him. He is never movede by our tears, rather by the heart that makes the eyes to cry.

Close Encounters of the God Kind: Experience the Power and Glory of a Trip to HeavenClose Encounters of the God Kind: Experience the Power and Glory of a Trip to HeavenClose Encounters of the God Kind: Experience the Power and Glory of a Trip to HeavenIn my little fellowship with God, I have come to understand that He(God) cares for us more than we could imagine.He desires that we be like Him in speech, in actions, and in walk; this is one of the reasons He gave us Himself in the person of the Holyspirit, to teach us all things.

God calls us gods; "I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most High. But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes" (Psalm 82:6-7).
 We must not be ignorant of who we are or else we will be short-changing ourselves. we must always depend upon the Spirit of God for everyday living.God wants us to live a full life on earth hence in Gen.1:28, He gave us the command to rule over all things; both living and non-living. Yes! man fell, but God has restored us to a more glorious position in Christ.We not only dominating the earth, we are also ruling with Him in eternity.

The Thoughts Of God

It’s impossible for God to forget you. When the spikes were fastening His hands to the cross, your name was being autographed on them! Don’t ever think He’s forgotten about you. When you go through situations that has no reason to be in your life, you have access to make inquiries from the maker of your life
.
The plan of God for your life is not of sorrow; as a child of God, no matter what the council that is given. For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.Jeremiah 29:11For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.psalm 84:11. His thoughts for us are so numerous for me to start counting.

“O Israel, trust in the Lord: He is their help and their shield. O House of Aaron, trust in the Lord; He is their help and their shield. You who fear the Lord, trust in the Lord; He is their help and their shield. The Lord has been mindful of us; He will bless us; He will bless the house of Israel; He will bless the house of Aaron. He will bless those who fear the Lord, both small and great. May the Lord give you increase more and more, you and your children. May you be blessed by the Lord, who made heaven and earth.” Psalm 115:9

It’s impossible for God to forget you. When the spikes were fastening His hands to the cross, your name was being autographed on them! Don’t ever think He’s forgotten about you.



We must not give the enemies an opportunity to rob us of our blessings by the lies he tells.he is the father of all lies(the devil).

Jos Mayhem- Love Your Enemies

I sometimes wonder what the true meaning of love is;yes love is God, know doubt about that. But in some circumstances it seems easier said than expressed. I read through the dailies in the past few weeks and saw the extent of carnage men will perpetrate in the name of religion. this is the story of the Jos, Nigeria inhumanity of man to his fellow man.
Well let me not bore you with tales of horror of reality.

Lets hear from our Master: JESUS CHRIST

Luke 6:27-36

[27] "But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, [28] bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. [29] If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic. [30] Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. [31] Do to others as you would have them do to you.

[32] "If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' love those who love them. [33] And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' do that. [34] And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' lend to 'sinners,' expecting to be repaid in full. [35] But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. [36] Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.

Welcome!

I greet you all in the matchless name of our Lord and Master JESUS CHRIST:The immortal, invisible; the only wise GOD, who has given us yet another opportunity to make a change in our lives and the lives of people that would come our ways in 2010. it is a great privilege to welcome you all into this fruitful year; "the year of gathering". In my subsequent articles, we shall be sharing the mind of God concerning nations of the world, especially the land where we dwell individually.
I must announce that recent global and local events, indicates the beginning of the end of this present world we are living in, and there is cause for attention!
once more welcome!
