HEEDING GOD !

 Obeying God is foolishness to this world, yet it's this  "foolishness"  God uses to confound   "the Wise in this world"  ( Jeremiah 8:9, 1 Corinthians 1:27 & Issaiah 44:25 )

THE EYES OF GOD !

“The eyes of the Lord run to and from through the whole earth.” Zechariah 4:10. The Greek name for God is Theos. It comes from the Greek root which makes up the word Theisthai, and that means, ” To see”. So God is the One who sees! God’s eyes refer to the all-knowing, all-seeing limitlessness of God, and yet at the same time His personal, ever-caring nature. Now does He see like men do? The content below exposes the uniqueness of God’s eyes. Emotional. God doesn’t only speak or show visions ! He often communicates with His eyes too. God’s eyes help Him to convey His feelings. The eyes He bears on His frowning face differ from those that appear on His smiley face. Now it takes spiritual discernment to ably tell what God says through His eyes at a time. Same eyes that show His displeasure, sadness, or anger now, at a different time may reveal His satisfaction, gladness or mercy. We can tell through His eyes if there’s an impending destruction or honour. We understand from Genesis 6:8 tha...

CAIN

  MEANING OF NAME:   Acquisition, fabrication or possessed.  STORY IN BRIEF: Eldest son of Adam and Eve, the first man to be born naturally, and founder of the family of Kenites (Kenite is called Kain in the Hebrew) The terrible story of Cain proves how quickly man’s fallen nature developed. Soon after that, he became desperately wicked; it was by him Polygamy started.  By calling Cain was an agriculturist, but he was not happy in his calling since he did not fear God. His heart became jealous as he witnessed the happiness of his brother Abel and his favor with God. Ultimately he yielded to his jealous feelings and slew Abel, just as the Jews for envy sought Christ’s death. Because Cain’s heart was destitute of love, his sacrifice had no heart in it and was therefore miserable, worthless and unacceptable to God. “The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord, but the prayer of the upright is His delight.” Cain was right in his desire to bring an offe...

SHUN DISTRACTIONS !

  “And still the Christians in the churches in Judea didn’t know me personally. All they knew was that people were saying, “The one who used to persecute us is now preaching the very faith he tried to destroy!” And they praised God because of me” (Gal. 1:22-24, NLT). Many people have been held captive by what others think of them. They are afraid to stand for the truth. When people criticize you for one thing or the other, do you forsake your calling? Don’t forget you are not accountable to man but to God. Paul persecuted and killed the Christians in his day. But he became a new person after his encounter with Jesus on the way to Damascus. Some of the people found it difficult to admit that he had changed. And even when he spoke and preached about Christ, some were not convinced. But that did not prevent him from standing for the truth. What are you doing that people are talking so much about, that is making you lose focus? Remember people will always have something to say whether ...

LISTEN CAREFULLY !

    " Be careful therefore how you listen..."  Luke 8:18. Words do not only have the efficacy to colour our thoughts; with their forceful potency, they simulate and propel our Spirits into a certain direction. Whereas some words deepen our fears, others expand our faith depending on their source. God-originated Words do not only invigorate us with His POWER; they also never disappoint when we live them out. So we are charged from our opening verse to listen to God alone. And when we do, we must also understand Him so we can aptly effect His Words. Here's the reason for the failure of some prophecies -  The Prophet of God might be mistaking another voice for God's voice or he misinterpretes what he actually heard God say leading to an erroneous application. It's the reason why James says, " be quick to listen but slow to speak". James 1:19. Ezekiel, the Prophet of God, full of this wisdom, would never prophesy until God first commanded him. And when he di...

REVELATION ( PART 1 )


" The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things REVEALED belong to us and to our children forever, that we may follow all the words of this law."

Deuteronomy 29:29

REVELATION can be defined as that unique inspirational illumination of the mind in virtue of which the recipient conceives such thoughts as God desires him to commit to writing, but may not necessarily involve supernatural communication. It is a special understanding brought forth through contemplations or focus.

Revelation is Light; Light that unveils the nature, ways, plans and purpose of God to us through the scriptures, creatures, His son – The Lord Jesus, events ( historical and present ) and miracles.

In this section, we share on the two major types of revelation and their channels. Rightly Following are the these two types of revelation.

GENERAL REVELATION

These are revelations obtained from God through The Lord Jesus, creatures and people. For declaring that He and His father are one, we understand that we can God by imitating the ways of Jesus. When the stars fought against Sisera, we understand that even God’s creatures have instincts that comply with the WILL and POWER of God. And now, everyone, irrespective of their religious background, has a conscience that guides him or her. Afterall, we were made in the likeness of God Himself.
( Psalms 19:1-4, Acts 17:24-28,

SPECIFIC REVELATION

These illuminations are obtained through history or experiences, and the scriptures. Moses’ attention was drawn to God by the unconsumed burning bush. God’s Word is also a sure source of LIGHT. From Genesis through the book of Revelation, God progressively shows us His divine nature or attributes. ( John 1:1, Revelation 19:13, Hebrews 1:3 )

According to our opening verse, we can only lay hands on that which is revealed. So let us be more desirous of God’s Lights in order to make greater exploits in Him.
