GUARD YOUR HEART
With the advent of social media, you can take in so many things from different sources all at once. You can get multiple pieces of advice from multiple people on one matter, in a few seconds. This is not always a bad thing and it’s not always a good thing either. The internet exposes us…

Faith as Righteousness
For people of the kingdom, having faith is not negotiable, since it is impossible to please God without faith (Heb. 11:6). However, today we would be looking at faith from a different angle. Not just as a key to pleasing God, but as imperative in our stance as righteous people. In the book of Hebrews,…

Faith.
For Christians, this is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not yet seen (Heb. 11:1). What does this mean? It means that while we are expectant of that unanswered prayer, we can hold on to faith. Our faith is evidence of our hope. And hope, scripture says, does not put…

Jesus Our Great High Priest
A high priest is a supreme religious leader and according to scripture, this was the only person who could represent the people before God. It was a role restricted to only the males of the tribe of Levi. Some of the roles of the high priest include offering sacrifices and gifts for the people and…

Jesus Our Perfect Sacrifice
When God created this world, it was perfect. It was free from sin, sickness, and every other kind of evil. However, man’s initial error caused sin and death to enter this world. The initial relationship we had with God was lost. The penalty for sin is death and because of the fall of man, we…

Jesus Our Mediator
According to Google, a mediator is a person who attempts to make people involved in a conflict come to an agreement; [that is] a go-between. Jesus Christ is our mediator. He assumes that role for all who believe in Him. Because of sin, we were at enmity with God. The Bible helps us understand that…

Sufficient Grace to Love
As believers, we are called to do the impossible. That is, we have been called to do that which the natural man would find terribly hard to do. Last week, we covered a very critical aspect of our identity as believers; here on earth, we are just like Christ is (1 Jhn. 4:17). This means…

Jesus Makes the Difference
People say the old testament is the new testament concealed and the new testament is the old testament revealed. Reading through the letters of the Apostles, you would realize that everything they said was hinted at in the old testament. The manifestation of Jesus uncovered the scriptures. All of the old testament became revealed in…

Gratitude
Maybe today’s topic is a little cliche, maybe it’s not. What is important is that we get the message. It’s the end of the year and most people are evaluating how their 2022 went, checking for loose ends that need to be tightened, and patting themselves on the back in the areas where they feel…

God’s Faithfulness
For someone reading this, this is a reminder that whatever God has said concerning you will surely come to pass. This is because He that has promised is faithful. Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful. Heb. 10:23 ESV The faithfulness of God is not…

With Grace Comes Ease
Grace means unmerited favour. It is a free gift of God to us. And if there’s one amazing thing we receive from Jesus, it is grace. It is because of God’s grace that we have been saved (Eph. 2:8). It is because of this same grace that we have access to God. The deposition of…

Wrestling With God
So Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him till daybreak. When the man saw that he could not overpower him, he touched the socket of Jacob’s hip so that his hip was wrenched as he wrestled with the man. Then the man said, “Let me go, for it is daybreak.” But Jacob…

The Joy Of The Lord
Then he said to them, “Go your way. Eat the fat and drink sweet wine and send portions to anyone who has nothing ready, for this day is holy to our Lord. And do not be grieved, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.” Nehemiah 8:10 ESV If there’s one thing I’ve been learning and…

UNFEIGNED FAITH.
Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen (Heb. 11:1). So, what does it mean to have unfeigned faith? It means for one’s faith to be unwavering. In other words, it means genuine and sincere faith. It doesn’t necessarily mean that your faith won’t shake, issues of life may cause it…

THE MIND OF CHRIST.
N.B: heart and mind may be used interchangeably in this article. It all starts with the mind. Many psychologists would tell you what you allow into your mind is what you become. Even scripture backs this up with Proverbs 23:7 that says as a man thinks in his heart, so is he. Again scripture says…
