GOMER

  MEANING :  Completion STORY IN BRIEF: Gomer - wife of The Prophet, Hosea, mocked at her husband's tenderness while allowing other men to seduce her upon squandering her husband's gifts. Earlier, The Lord instructed Prophet Hosea to marry a whore from an adulterous nation, so he did. And the names of their three children, meaning: "God scatters" , "Not loved"  and "Not my people", pronounced the severity of the Prophet's seperation from his wife. Hosea is now heart-broken. The Lord does not only see the fulfilment of God's Word in His life; God teaches him lessons from Israel's unfaithfulness through her wife's misdeeds. Finally, God asks Him to still love his wife just as He, God, still loves Israel inspite of their stubbornness. When the Prophet did, his wife returned and their love life was restored.

THE LAW OF ATTRACTION

  "...that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we have gazed upon, and our hands have handled,..." John 1:1 If you consider your circle now, you will conclude that friends with whom you have similar personality outnumber those with deferring personality. You should also notice that, often times, you suddenly meet with or receive calls from, those you strongly  think of and long to see. These are manifestations of the Law of Attraction ! " The heart is DEEP beyond all things... " Jeremiah 17:9 Brenton Septuagint Translation. And Psalm 42:7 says DEEP calleth unto DEEP. Equating the two scriptures will help us deduce that, HEART calls unto HEART.  SOUL calls unto SOUL. That is the Spirit of the law - Like attracts LIKE ! Our opening verse starts with HEARING or SEEING and ends with HANDLING. Until a man hears or sees, he cannot handle. Yet, what we finally touch is always LIKE what we already hear and see according to the Law of Attra...

THE GREATEST WEAPON !

  “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds…. “ 2 Corinthians 10:4 KJV As christians, we are not improverished of ammunitions with which to withstand the enemy and his wiles. Yet these weapons are variably effective. There is, therefore, the need to look into the nature of each of them and reasonably determine the most productive. According to Paul, in the preceding scripture, our arms are not physical; prayer, praise/worship, faith, obedience and Light, are all rather abstract though results-yielding. Now, which of these does satan fear most? Let us find out from the following paragraphs. Prayer is a good arm. It transforms both on the inside and on the outside of us. But if prayer is a request, then satan can pray too; he got far into God’s presence, requesting of His permission to try Job. He demanded of The Lord to sift Peter like wheat. Thus, prayer is not satan’s most-feared ! Afterall, he too can pray to God. D...

NAAMAN'S LIFE STORY !

MEANING OF NAME  :  Sweetness  or pleasantness. HIS REGRET      : He  could not live all the years of his life as his name suggests; he was struck with leprosy. HIS JOY         : He  had a good wife and a good maid both of whom played large enough role in his healing.   STORY IN BRIEF : NAAMAN, a Syrian captain of Ben-hadad's  army, was a son of Caleb - a friend of Joshua. The valiant man was living joyously till he became a leper. Fortunately, NAAMAN had a good wife who also often expressed her displeasure about his sickly state. This would always attract their servant - an Israelite, into singing the praises of Elisha to them. Now, the couple were not only enthused by the songs of praise their maid sang; they also believed in the Prophet, Elisha, upon hearing of the miracles he had been performing as recounted by their maid servant. So NAAMAN rose to meet with Elisha in Samaria. Elisha would instruct him to was...

REVELATION PART 2

 


"And he informed me, and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I am now come forth to give thee skill and understanding."
Daniel 9:22 KJV
Our verse here lets us know that Daniel received some divine secrets from God through His angel. But how else can we obtain revelations from God? This second PART of the subject enlightens us on the ways by which we access the LIGHTS of God.

1. READING OR STUDYING.

"When you come, bring the bookcase and the books that I left in Troas with Qarpus, especially the parchment scrolls." 2 Timothy 4:13
By this verse, we understand the secret behind Pauls depth in God; Paul read stories of Bible figures; He studied the Law; He acquainted himself with the promises of God, and heard the Words of our Lord Jesus as narrated by his disciples. He even made notes, kept the books and meditated upon them constantly for Lights. Paul only taught after he had studied long enough to receive some revelations. No wonder, God wrought special miracles by his Hands. And his teachings? Extraordinary ! Now, we are privileged to have these sermons on digital platforms. As we make the most of these technological advancements, studying diligently like Paul, his kind of rewards would be our portions too - God is no respector of person.
( Acts 19:11 , Romans 2:11 & 2 Timothy 2:15 )

2. The Presence of God

"... In your Light do we see LIGHT."  Psalm 36:9.
The Bible says, God is not just a Light Himself; He gives us this LIGHT when we approach Him too. We enter his court with a grateful heart, worshipping and praising Him for His LOVE. Before long, the Holy Spirit launches us into the inner court where physical distractions are hardly noticed. Now, conversation must have been sparked. God talks back to us as we talk to Him. And we may see in part because we are still just halfway through. It is the stage where He starts granting us new Lights on the scriptures we already know. But what actually dominate this stage are the signs or languages of the angels. When we continue long enough but heartedly, the Spirit further pushes us into the last court - the Holy of Holies. It is that moment where you no longer feel the impact of your senses. You do not hear the phone ring, the door knocked nor the voice of a neighbor calling. You are with the celestials now. Unlike the preceding stage, His voices and visions are not faint or flashy; you see or hear more clearly. He also gives you deep divine understanding of the times, events or experiences and the scriptures; Daniel was a man of prayer. Paul always prayed in the Spirit. David was an addicted worshipper - the three were marvelously filled with revelations in their days. When we carry and practise God's presence as shown here, we would constantly flow in LIGHT ! ( 1 John 1:5, 1 Chronicles 16, Daniel 6:10-7, & 2 Corinthians 14:18)

3. HOLINESS.

"Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God." Matthew 5:8.
Seeing God equals accessing His LIGHT. Yet this is reserved for only those that maintain purity in heart.
 Before we have our own experiences, we must first get the ticket that qualifies us into the kingdom as witnesses by becoming born again. After rebirth, we need to observe to do His word through the help of His Spirit. His word also must we constantly feed on as that would keep us sanctified from deviations. This is the life that guarantees the breaking forth of LIGHT. Again the Bible says, "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding."  Proverbs 9:10.
Daniel, a loyal and God-fearing servant had skills and understanding. Joseph eschewed the evil of sleeping with his master's wife, and God granted him revelations. Indeed, "The secret of the LORD is for those who fear Him,... " Psalm 25:14.
( John 3:3,5, Deuteronomy 281-2 & John 15:3 )

Now, "Arise! Shine! For your light arrives! The splendor of the LORD shines on you!" Psalm 60:1.
