If The Lord Is Your Treasure!

 If The Lord Is Your Treasure!


Do you know that all our labour on earth is in search for our treasures? Look into this introspectively. 


Your daily struggles are not for anything, but for where you will gain your comfort, peace and all humanely acclaimed actualization. And it is because of these, that your heart yearns to amass all that it desires.


However, if the Lord is your treasure, there is no need to over burden yourself with unnecessary worries. For his presence takes care of that, even to the beyond.


Friend, if the Lord is your treasure, no action of the enemy scares you. For you know with confidence that it will never succeed. Why? Because of the assurance you have in the Lord (Isaiah 54:17).


The troubles may come, the promises may delay. But as far as the Lord is your treasure, they all will work out for your good (Romans 8:28). For the vision is for an appointed time, and though it tarries, it will surely come to pass (Habakkuk 2:3).


Therefore my dear, do not relent on seeking the Lord (your treasure) with all your heart, soul and might. Be loyal and stay steadfast with him, he will draw nigh to you and answer all your requests in due time (Jeremiah 33:3; Matthew 7:7). Just let him remain your treasure and you will never regret.

Stay Blessed!

Stand For Holiness!

 Stand For Holiness!


As representatives of God on earth, we are admonished to be true examples of him (1 Timothy 4:12), proving to the world that he lives in us.


It is obvious and critical to assume that leaving holy as humans is not and will never be easy. However, with help of God through the Holy Spirit, this is made quite easy (Matthew 19:26).


Friend, no matter what lies before you, you need to psyche yourself to stand for holiness as a believer in Christ Jesus. For it is through this that the blessings and promises of God are made evident and perfect in our lives.


Being holy does not deprive you from anything. Rather, it opens you up to much glories, both in the sight of God and righteous men. For it makes your sacrifice pleasing unto God (Romans 12:1).


Stand for holiness my dear, even when there is no hope, stand for holiness when you are all alone (in any situation), believing that your reward will be worthwhile (nothing can be compared to it). For it will be eternal to the glory of God. Amen!

Stay Blessed!

How Long Has It Been!

 How Long Has It Been!


To everything there is a season, and a purpose to every time (Ecclesiastes 3:1). Meanwhile, it gets worrying and of great concerns when one's expectations tarry for long. 


Though logically normal to worry, it is unhealthy to over worry your head off. For God is in control.


How long has it been for you in that situation or condition that has swallowed your pride, peace and joy? Why do you feel and think all hope is lost? Come on, never give the enemy chance to rejoice over you! 


Girt your loins and stand fast to rejoice in the Lord, for he is your refuge. Your redeemer and friend, the comforter who brings peace and good tidings. He will never forsake you.


If you have forgotten, let me help you! Remember the man at the pool of Bethesda, the woman with the issue of blood, the man at the beautiful gate begging for alms and many others. They all received their quota of the Lord's blessings and restoration in due times. Why won't you also look up to the him for yours (Hebrews 12:2)? Bear in mind that he has not forgotten you and will not do so!


Meanwhile as you wait, you ought to have faith and exercise it diligently. For without it is impossible to please God. In spite of having faith my dear friend, always resolve to have good and clear conscience, staying focused on the goal that is set before you. For with these, you are more than victorious in Jesus name. Amen!

Stay Blessed!

He Never Lies!

 He Never Lies!


God is faithful, and he's always true to his words. He never lies, because his words are yea and in themselves amen (2 Corinthians 1:20). Nothing falls short of them.


Friend, what has the Lord said about your life? Be assured that it will come to pass. For the Lord never fails. Always have it in mind that, the vision is for an appointed time, and though it tarries, it will surely come to pass (Habakkuk 2:3).


Never lose hope when things are not going on as expected, relax and rest in the Lord. He is ever ready to carry you up to where you belong. For his yoke is lighter (Matthew 11:28-30).


He knows what is best for you, and he's working it out for your sake. Be confident in his love and faithfulness. He never fails nor lies!

Stay Blessed!


Numbers 23:19, Hebrews 6:18, 1 Samuel 15:29, 2 Timothy 2:13, Matthew 19:26, Romans 3:4, Malachi 3:6, John 17:17.

Be Right With Your Conscience!

 Be Right With Your Conscience!


Conscience is one valuable instrument God gave everyone in the quest to create us in his image and likeness. It is the main factor that makes us averagely appreciable above other creatures.


In view of this, we are required to use our consciences judiciously. Meaning, we ought to act right or be right with our consciences.


However, acting right with your conscience requires that your conscience is strong and not weak, else your actions will be in disarray. 


As a matter of fact, the only tool to guide you into being right with your conscience is the word of God. For it is truth (John 17:17). It is the best instructor (personified) and at the same time, contains the best instructions constructive enough to make you righteous. For with it, your steps are well guarded.


Under no circumstance would you do wrong or be tagged negatively if you be right with your God-given conscience. Knowing that, to the pure, all things are pure (Titus 1:15). Sella!


Friend, do not be deceived by the corruption and deceitfulness of this world, but be filled with the fear of God, which is the beginning of wisdom (Proverbs 9:10). That you may be wise, to know how best to live right with your conscience. This is key to your sustenance on earth, even to eternity. Live it!

Stay Blessed!


John 8:9, Acts 23:1, Acts 24:16, Romans 2:15, 1 Corinthians 8:7, 1 Timothy 1:5, 1 Timothy 4:2, Hebrews 13:18.

Why Play The Harlot!

 Why Play The Harlot!


Many of us upon the sacrifice and shame the Lord went through to redeem us from sin, have turned back unto the Lord. This is evident in the scripture saying, we all, like sheep have gone astray, each has turned to his one way... (Isaiah 53:6). Why should this be?


Why do we try to make mockery of Christ's sacrifice for us? Why at all do we play the harlot with God? What at all will it cost you to obey the Lord's will? Is that cost more worthy than the cost Christ borne for your sake?


Friend, don't be an ingrate. Be content with what Christ has done for you and make your gratitude evident by devoting and pledging allegiance to him. For that is what he requires from you.


Stop chasing after deceitful and unfulfilling treasures, when the all-fulfilling treasure (Christ Jesus) is so close to you.

For he alone is the way to life, wealth and peace. What else can you desire or ask for if Christ is with you, in you and for you? Nothing!


 For all things were made by him, and without him was nothing made (John 1:1-5).

Cleave to Christ Jesus, and stop playing the harlot. It will not help you.

Stay Blessed!


Ezekiel 16:1-19, Hosea 4:12, Hosea 5:4, Isaiah 1:21, Ezekiel 23:35.

How Prepared Are You!

 How Prepared Are You!


Preparation is one of the hallmarks of every successful person. It is very crucial to anyone yearning to breakthrough and make it in life. Without constructive preparation,  one's plans become futile.


For this reason, it is imperatively required that we all take time to get prepared towards accomplishing our purposes on earth.


Dear friend, there is a great mission upon your life, and until you plan and prepare yourself well to fulfill it, your satisfaction may never be complete. 


As a matter of fact, irrespective of our missions on earth, we all are set to face the judgement and commendation of the Most High God. How prepared are you?


What would you have to say or do assuming he comes before you now? Would your life be in shambles or would you be at peace with him? Sella!


The day of the Lord is at hand, it is coming and would not be delayed any longer. Prepare yourself well to meet him. 


Flee every evil and do good. Seek righteousness always, for righteousness exalts a nation. He that is coming is a righteous judge, and he will never mix his judgement (Revelation 22:12). Be prepared, no time to waste!

Stay Blessed!


Revelation 6:1-17, Proverbs 24:27, Luke 21:36, Proverbs 22:3, 1 Peter 1:13, 2 Timothy 2:15, 2 Timothy 4:2, Ephesians 6:16, Matthew 24:44.

Flee From Indoctrination!

 Flee From Indoctrination!


Many are eager to know the truth of life, and are thereby following diverse doctrines. Meanwhile, there is only one truth and that is Christ Jesus (John 1:1-5), the word of God (John 17:17).


For he has said, " I am the way, the truth and the life... (John 14:6). And it is also written that the words he speak are spirit and life (John 6:63). And, nothing can stand in replacement of him.


In view of this my dear friend, it has become very necessary for us to beware of false doctrines and their implications. Why? Because, the days are evil, full of wickedness and deception. 


We have been exposed to diverse forms of doctrines due to our quest for spiritual freedom and flexibility.  Many are growing cold to the love of God and the gospel. And this is the more reason why you need to flee from every form of indoctrination. 


Meanwhile, the best way to do this, is to be acquainted with the gospel (Word of God). Thus, you need to study the word and live it (2 Timothy 2:15). Make it a part of you that can not be devoid with. For it is only by the word that you'll overcome the world with all its lust and deceit. This is truth imbibe it!

Stay Blessed!


Matthew 16:1-12, 2 Timothy 4:3-4, 1 Timothy 6:3-5, 1 John 4:1-3, 1 Corinthians 14:33, Isaiah 5:20, Ephesians 4:14, Matthew 7:21-23.

Shalom!!!
