“But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen”

(2 Peter 3:18)

The Lord is doing something beautiful in our day. We’re in a new era in the move of the spirit; an era where the believer is unlimited through the grace of God; a period that tremendous things are happening. The glory of God is everywhere, His righteousness spreading like wild fire. Satan is not happy hence he fights back in wickedness but we’re not perturbed because what the grace of God is doing is far more greater than the wickedness of Satan.

Through the grace of God, this year we will do more in expanding God’s kingdom. As we preach the Gospel, the kingdom of God will be established in the hearts of men. God is dispatching more people with the Gospel to lead more people to righteousness and environments and nations that earlier restricted the preaching of the Gospel are now wide open for the sake of souls.

But unfortunately, the church is not seizing this opportunity; the church is busy engaging in entertainments, instead of spreading the glory. They don’t have understanding of the time. Jesus after His resurrection met with two of His disciples on their way to Emmaus who had the same problem as the church today. “Then he said unto them, o fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets has spoken” (Luke 24:25).Not that Jesus was abusing them, He was actually addressing their state.

The word “fools” is translated “anoets” in Greek and it means to lack a particular understanding. It is the same word Paul used in (Galatians 3:1, 3). The word “slow”is theGreek “bradus”. It means to be dull in understanding. The two disciples lacked a perception, a knowledge of the period they were which was the time of the fulfillments of the prophecies of the prophets.

Today the church is acting in the same way the disciples did. The death, burial and resurrection of Jesus is the unleashing of the promised glory (Luke 24:26) we’re in the era where we can do more for the kingdom. It is now time for us to change our perception and go for available souls. Never you allow this opportunity to slip through your hands. It is now time for us to give more for the preaching of the Gospel. If you can see what God is seeing you’ll wake up to do something.


REFERENCES: James 4:6; Jeremiah 4:6

PRAYER: Dear Father, I pray that your church will understand the era we are, in Jesus name – Amen.


WE PASSIONATELY CARE ABOUT YOU
     We believe there is a void in every person that only a relationship with God can fill. We’re not referring to finding religion or joining a particular church we are referring to having a relationship with your heavenly father through his son Jesus Christ. We believe that knowing him is the source of true peace and fulfillment in life we encourage you to pray thus: Jesus, I believe you died for me and rose from the dead I hereby confess you as my lord and savior. I receive the life of God into my spirit and now am born again.
Thank you lord Jesus for the new life I have now in you. In Jesus name – amen

                                                  January 29. “So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it” (Isaiah 55:11) The life that we’ve been called to live in Christ is the transcendent life. It is a life that’s far removed from failure and defeat. It is a life in the word of God. To manifest the glory and splendor of this life, the word of God should become an integral part of us; what we live by. At salvation, we became associates of the God-kind; we’re joint heirs with Christ. Why then should any Christian suffer defeat and pain? The problem is that we’ve not given the word of God its proper place in our lives. God gave us His word to live by. His word is the revelation of His will, nature and character an...

February 18. “The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available (dynamic in its working)” (James 5:16 Amp) The happenings in our environments and the world over calls for our importunity in prayer. Out of ignorance a lot of people are blaming God for certain occurrences in their lives. But if things must change in the direction of God’s original plans and purposes, then we must keep praying. God knows that there’s no situation a child of His cannot change because the divine power necessary to effect such change is already resident in you; it was deposited in you the moment you became born again. God doesn’t expect you to cry out for help or start complaining but He expects you to enforce your victory in the place of prayer. I Kings 17 tells us of Elijah’s  confrontation with Ahab the king where he said, “… As the Lord God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my ...

                                                  January 19. “And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great” (Genesis 26:13) Child of God, your journey this year has been ordained only in one direction – upward and forward. This is exactly the way God has called you to live your life. He wants your life to be that of progressand advancement – not in theory but practically. It means that at the end of this year, success will be evidently seen in every area of your life. This is because as a joint heir with Christ, you have the nature to be absolutely successful. You must therefore make up your mind to develop a consciousness – a mentality that’s consistent with your personality in Christ. Bible says, “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he” (Proverbs 23:7). So, you must refuse thoughts of failure occupy your heart bec...
