The Test of Knowing God
In 1 John 2, Apostle John shows us how to conduct the test of knowing God in our lives. He says that knowing God means keeping (treasuring in your heart) the commands of God.
God Wants to Teach You Great and Unsearchable Things
God wants to teach you great and unsearchable things that’ll affect your life and also generations unborn if you’re determined to cling unto Him.
God Will Never Stop Loving You
The extent of love God has for you is at its peak, and it’ll never diminish. If you love Him back by becoming submissive to Him in all your ways and obeying His commands, you’ll enjoy His love more.
Make Your Pastor Joyful for Shepherding You
You ease the pressure and burden on your shepherd’s (pastor’s) mind when you obey his teachings of Jesus Christ and become submissive to the spiritual instructions that he gives you.
Let the Dead Bury Their Own Dead
“Let the dead bury their own dead” means leave everything behind to follow Jesus. If you refuse, they’ll soon turn to a trash in your walk with God.
God Counted You Faithful Before Putting You into the Ministry
God counted you faithful before putting you into the ministry. He knew you’d mess up sometimes, make mistakes, mishandle opportunities and even commit evil acts sometimes unconsciously. But He’s focused on your roots – what’s within you, not the filth you’re letting out.
Are You Hindering or Advancing God’s Work?
Build security around your life by being accountable to other responsible ministers of God in your life. So that when such people correct you for doing something wrong, you’ll not drift away from the truth. Do what God has told you to do because you’ll give account to Him (Romans 14:12).
The Unbelieving Believer
In which area of your life have you limited God to do wondrous things? There’s nothing too hard for God. Don’t box Him with your limited mindset.
Will You Leave Everything for Jesus’ Sake?
Never allow anyone to deceive you that whatever you’re doing for God is a waste of time. No! It’s, instead, a wise spiritual investment that will yield incredible results, both on Earth and in heaven – said Jesus (Matthew 19:29). Keep serving the Lord acceptably.
A Man’s Life Is a Reflection of What Is in His Heart
A man’s life is a reflection of what is in his heart. And that would mean we should check the things stored in our hearts, especially offences. It should be good and good alone – not evil.
What You See Cannot Satisfy You
What you see cannot satisfy you – whether humans, products or other material possessions. None of them can fulfil the deep yearning in your soul. God placed that hunger there, so you’ll always desire to connect to Him and view things according to his lenses.
Settle Disputes in Secrecy
One of the ways to appease someone’s heart after grieving him is to give the person a gift secretly. It can be a private phone call, text message expressing an apology or a short note. Whatever it is, your goal should be keeping destiny relationships intact no matter what.
