  Exodus 12:2  This month   shall be   unto you the beginning of months: it   shall be   the first month of the year to you. At what stage does success for a glorious year begin? Is it in the heart or in our action? If we do not note the beginning, there is little chance of ending well. We do not begin randomly or haphazardly and expect a perfect project at the end. God began his walk with man on earth in the book of Genesis. We are told in the book of  Genesis 1:1  In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth. When we have a beginning, it is to mark the journey and how long till realization. When we involve God in the beginning of this year or indeed, subsequent years, we are bound to succeed because He is in our team. Do not involve God in the middle, but from the start; trust him for all your needs in 2022.  Psalms 90:2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from   ev...

  Matthew 17:21  Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting. Hebrews 11:6  But without faith  it is  impossible to please  him : for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and  that  he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.  How do you persuade God to take back what he has said or pronounced? After all, he has told us what comes out of his mouth shall not return until it has accomplished its mission and purpose. [life or death]. Let us read  Isaiah 55:11, 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. There is only one way to move God to do or to renege what he has ordered. To do that, put a smile on his face and a nod of approval from his Holiness [God too has emotion; God can be pleased or made angry see  Genesis 6:6  And it repented the LORD th...

There is no land where word of wisdom is not part of daily application. Words that are not prophetic, but are true most of the time. Words, when diligently applied to one’s life, will envelop our life in peace, progress, and love for everyone. The book of proverbs in the Bible is an example.Proverbs 3:21 My son, let not them depart from thine eyes: keep sound wisdom and discretion: It is important to say from the start that keeping a resolution is not a piece of cake. It is more than clinching your teeth to achieve. It takes an inner strength. Like I have always averred, breaking a long held habit is like asking a lunatic to stop doing crazy things overnight. We know if he can stop, he would have chosen that part long ago, not to mention the mental state responsible for his abnormal actions. But there are some of us out there whose vices have landed us in a hotspot, had drawn tears, pain and regret. The sad experience kind of galvanized us to take a practical steps to change and turn ...

Hebrews 12:2:“Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.” How do you provoke God to pour out his blessing upon you despite the gloom being predicted by the expert for the fast approaching 2022?, [thanks to the omicron variant] one can hardly see any brightness in the horizon when pitched against their conclusion. ‘2 Kings 7:1-2 Then Elisha said, Hear ye the word of the LORD; Thus saith the LORD, tomorrow about this time shall a measure of fine flour be sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gate of Samaria. Then a lord on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, Behold, if the LORD would make windows in heaven, might this thing be? And he said, Behold, thou shalt see it with thine eyes, but shalt not eat thereof. When there is so much gloom, so much despair, filling the air of our tomor...

1 Corinthians 7:9 But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn. When the city of David parish of The Redeemed Christian Church Of God (RCCG)launched an online Christian dating platform for mature singles, it received a lot of reviews and raves with mixed reactions. The Parish Pastor, Idowu Iluyomade, revealed at a forum, that the platform will enable singles to interact and find their life partners. He further stated that when a single lady or young man registers on the site, the information would still have to be processed before approval. It did not go down well with some pastor’s notable Leke. Leke Adeboye, son of RCCG General Overseer Pastor E.A. Adeboye, has expressed his objections after the church launched an online dating site. One day after they announced that the RCCG City of David Parish has launched an online Christian dating platform for mature singles, Leke took to Instagram to reveal what he thinks about it. He shared photos of ...

Exodus 12:38 And a mixed multitude went up also with them; and flocks, and herds, even very much cattle. We live in this present WOLRD, where yardstick for a pastor’s success is measured in numerical strength alone.[Matthew 7:14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.] And not how many are true Christians and dedicated to the service of God. It is mostly sinners from Mondays till Saturday, then saints on Sundays. Christianity is no longer about living a holy life, but all about doing what you feel and basking in the confession of grace; for we are saved by grace. When the church ought to be the one to turn the world to christ, the church is most time copying the world. Cases abound of comedians taking the stage on the pulpit to make men laugh and have fun. Cases abound in the world where prayers must be recited or made before the opening of any agenda. The so called mixed multitude are the ones in the church who are ne...

Matthew 6:10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. The government is still funding the membership of Nigeria in all the International Islamic organisations like OIC and its allies without being part of any international Christian organization. ——Rev. Francis Ayokunle The news that the united states has removed Nigeria from the list of countries without religious freedom has come as a surprise to many christian howbeit the Nigeria christian association, CAN. Rev Samson Ayokunle in a statement titled, ‘CPC List: We Are At a Loss On the Data the US Government Used for the Delisting of Nigeria–CAN,’ said the US supposed to have contacted it before taking such a decision. Ayokunle said the US government did not contact CAN when they were listing Nigeria among the countries of ‘Particular Concern’ on religious freedom, neither did they seek its opinion before removing Nigeria from the list. “If they had done, we would have been able to compare the statistics ...
