Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy & pleasing to God - this is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test & approve what God's will is - His good, pleasing & perfect will. (Romans 12:1-2).  God has good, pleasing, & perfect plans for his children. He wants us to be transformed people with renewed minds, living to honor & obey Him. Because He wants only what is best for us, & because He gave His Son to make our new lives possible, we should joyfully  give ourselves as living sacrifices for His service. We should serve Him in love, humility, simplicity, & for the glory of God. We should live holy lives & follow His perfect will always. We should do that which pleases God. What is that which pleases God? We should live by faith. Without faith, it is impossible to please God. Faith connects us to God. When Jesus returns, He is going to look for faith on earth. How do we get this faith? It comes by hearing the Word of God & putting it into practice. We receive all things from God by faith. Without faith, there is no deal. This faith is all about believing Jesus Christ. We must believe His Word, speak it & live by it. The kind of faith that God wants is the one that works through love. Why love? Because God is love. Whoever is loving, has been born of God & knows God. Thank you Jesus. Good morning Holy Spirit.  Prayer: Father, thank you for crafting a way for us to be saved. Thank you for Jesus & for what He did on the cross for us. Today, we are now your children, we are now royal. Help us to live as royal. Give us the grace to live holy lives as a way to say thank you for granting us salvation. The Bible says: Without holiness, no one will see the Lord. I have a burdened heart for your church today. We are not largely living according to your Word & will. We have adulterated your Word or distorted it. We are not living holy lives. Father, have mercy for us. Let your mercy locate us as Christ's church. Let your mercy speak for us. Give us a second chance. Save our souls. Deliver us. Align our lives & words to Your Word. Do not allow Jesus to return until we are largely in sync with you. Otherwise, many Christians will not make it to Heaven. They will find themselves in hell because of UNBELIEF. They will not see you. I am crying Lord for your church today. It's state is largely not Scriptural.In some parts, it has become  a CIRCUS. Have mercy on us. Deal with our unbelief. Help us to go back to the BASICS where church is about equipping & not entertainment. Restore power & glory in your church. Help us have true Christian character. Fill us with your love, joy & peace. Make us righteous, holy & pure as Your church. Send your angels to minister to our salvation & deliverance needs. In Jesus mighty name we pray, believe & give you thanks, Amen.  God bless you all.

 Business God's Way: During this annual shutdown for most businesses,  i urge you to rest, have quality time with the family & connect with God. Go for a holiday with the family if you can afford. After that, spend some quality time with God in a quiet place for an hour or so & seek His guidance. Carry your note pad & write the points down. Read your Bible, do meditation & pray. Present your plans to the Lord for the coming year & let Him approve them in His own time & in His own way. Be calm, quiet & composed, in order to hear that small still voice, gentle whisper from God. Result: The voice of God will give you guidance & direction for the coming year 2023. If things have not been okay with you in business, the Lord will enable you to have peace & joy in the midst of such storms. He will give you a way out. Do not panic no matter what comes your way. Remain focused on the perfomance & growth of your business. Do not murmur or complain...

 Truly I say to you, unless you change & become like little children, you will never enter the Kingdom of God. (Mathew 18:3).  The verse above is talking about a changed life. Christianity is about a changed life. What is Christianity? It is a relationship with God through His holy Son, Jesus Christ. Christianity is not a religion, though we have created Christian religion in the church today. Christianity is not an organization, it is an organism, a living thing. Our God is alive. Jesus is alive. God raised Him from the dead. He is seated with the Father on the throne of God's grace. The bones of all the founding fathers of religion are still in their graves, but the tomb of Jesus Christ is empty. The founding fathers of religion died & never rose up. Religion, because it is a mixture of God's laws & man made rules, does not make anyone righteous. It makes the people RELIGIOUS. Only Jesus Christ makes us righteous.How do we become righteous? We need to accept Jesu...

 They have greatly oppressed me from my youth - let Israel say - they have greatly oppressed me from my youth but they have not gained victory over me. (Psalm 129:1-2). No weapons formed against me shall prosper. The devil has been fighting me from my youth. He for years struck me with terrible & terminal sicknesses, but God healed me. I missed death on three occasions, in 1986, 1995 & 1997 but God delivered me from the spirit of death. God did not end there, He has given me divine health. Over the years I faced extreme hardships & lack. But God has shown His great mercy & grace to us. There is not even a day that we slept without having food. The Lord was faithful to provide to us.The devil fought me for decades of years. He has tried every trick in his book in a bid to stop this ministry that you see today. But God was faithful to me. He used the situation as the REFINERS FIRE - to refine me, change me & to prepare me for this God moment. Look at the result: G...
