There are benefits to following the way of the Lord, but not without sacrifice. Loving God can come with demands. Some of His instructions aren’t always pleasant because they can make you very uncomfortable. But it is always worth it. If I don’t know anything about God, at least I can boast of it that He is faithful. Hope in Him.
Do you want to stand out in anything you are doing as a believer – church-related or not? You need the anointing of the Holy Ghost on your mind and hands.
From Proverbs 20:8, you can only winnow evil with your eyes (of spiritual authority) when you sit on your throne. That means that before you can function in your highest divine authority, you must walk in the consciousness of who you are in Christ.
Every person who was in Christ while physically alone and his name has continued to remain in the world, still impacting lives, is a manifestation of the promise of the Word — that whoever does the will of the Father will live forever. Their impact still exists, and they will shine brighter in heaven, also.
As believers, God has called us to preach the gospel to all nations. Maybe you thought the divine calling applies exclusively to pastors or people in full-time ministry, but it’s not. As we have accepted Christ as our saviour and are part of the body of Christ, it is our divine mandate to spread the good news in whatever way we can.
In our families, siblings love one another. Right? Why? Because they are from the same parents. In the same way, you can’t say you love God but hate any of His children, no matter how the person behaves.
Lack of service, prioritising family voices over God, and not allowing the dead to bury their dead are roadblocks to following Jesus that we create ourselves. Trusting and putting Jesus first as a leader is the way to go on our journey with Him.
True service to God involves a genuine connection from within, a sincerity that comes from the depths of one’s being. So, whether in public or private, you’re expected to uphold purity in all aspects of your life. To serve God effectively, you need a heart wholly devoted and surrendered to His will because He is holy. Only then can your actions turn from mere religious routines into meaningful service aligned with God’s plan.
By prioritising your spiritual fervour, prayer, consistent fasting, and forgiveness, you can maintain the strength and joy needed to serve God faithfully.
Every action and effort in this life has eternal significance, so serve God with your eyes on your true reward, which is in heaven.
Don’t let the devil deceive you. Every word of prophecy God has released upon your life will be fulfilled. But be careful. You don’t determine the time God will fulfil it. Your work is to believe in Him and labour consistently in prayers for that Word to be fulfilled.
Remember that everything earthly is temporary, so don’t let ALL your life goals be about getting material possessions. Kingdom wealth isn’t perishable. Go for it instead of settling for mere earthly rewards.
