GOD NEVER FAILS

GOD NEVER FAILS MEMORY VERSE: - Deuteronomy 31:6 - “Be strong and of good courage, do not fear or be in dread of them: for it is the LORD your God who goes with you; he will not fail you or forsake you." Everything else may fail, but God does not fail, He cannot fail and will never fail. When you trust in the Lord He can never abandon you, He will always intervene in your life.  Everyone of us at one point or the other have failed to Keep a promise but God never fails; His promises are not ordinary promises; there are authentic. The scripture says, "Then Job answered the LORD and said, “I know that You can do all things, And that no purpose of Yours can be thwarted” (Job 42:2). God is ever faithful, He stands by His Word to perform it. Wherefore, the scripture tells us, "God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? (Numbers 23:19). ...

FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION 4

FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION Part 4 MEMORY VERSE: - 2 kings 4:1 - "Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant did fear the Lord: and the creditor is come to take unto him my two sons to be bondmen." Furthermore, Elisha asked the prophet's wife what she had in her house and she said nothing but a small oil. Obviously, the woman belittled the oil, she did not see anything meaningful coming out of it, she didn't see the oil being a way out of her misery, she commonize and devalued that which she has.  The reason why a lot of people are where they are, is as a result of not valuing what they have. You must appreciate what you have. There's something in that little seed in your hands, there's something in that job, there's something in that spouse that God gave you, do not devalue what you have, put it to use and God's grace will mak...

FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION 3

FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION Part 3 MEMORY VERSE: - 2 kings 4:2 - "And Elisha said unto her, What shall I do for thee? tell me, what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thine handmaid hath not any thing in the house, save a pot of oil." It is not enough to hear but to put to practice what you heard. That which you hear can only benefit you when it's put into action. The word did not profit the ancient Jews because they did not believe it and as a result of their unbelief, they did not act on it and thus, it was unprofitable to them. (See Hebrews 4:2). Moreover, Romans 2:13 made us to know that "it is not the hearers that are made perfect but the doers." That is to say, it is only those who takes action on what they were told that will enjoy the glorious riches stored up for them in Christ.  The prophet didn't apply or practice what he learnt from Elisha. He lived frustrating God's grace. He was poor, he was in debt, and eventually died a de...

  FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION Part 2 MEMORY VERSE: - 2 kings 4:1 - "Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant did fear the Lord: and the creditor is come to take unto him my two sons to be bondmen." There's no failure, no lack, nor poverty in God. Jesus said they're many mansions in heaven (John 14:2). Mansions are not small houses, there are very massive and impressive houses that only the wealthy can have. Therefore, what our heavenly Father gives to us is massive blessings, success and abundance.  Abundance in this sense is a life of overflow, a life of running over, a life full of everything you need to sustain yourself in joy and purpose and to go beyond yourself and reach out to others. Christianity is a call to live out heavenly life here in this world. If you cannot live the abundant life here on earth, you certainly, cannot fit into...

FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION Part 1 MEMORY VERSE: - 2 kings 4:1 - "Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant did fear the Lord: and the creditor is come to take unto him my two sons to be bondmen." Life is what we choose to make out of it. What you believe is what you get. It's an error for a child of God to believe in and accept Failure in life. Failure might present itself to you but you must not chose it, you must not allow it to have it's way, you must resist it with everything in you. For in Christ failure is not an option. No matter the resistance we see, no matter what the challenges maybe, all we have and all we do is to win. You must have a mindset of a winner, and you must be a goal getter. You must not give in to fear because it will make you to give up and accept failure and defeat. Fear tolerate but faith terminates all fears.  Th...

GRACE FOR SUCCESSFUL LIVING

Image
GRACE FOR SUCCESSFUL LIVING MEMORY VERSE: - Luke 22:35 - "And He said unto them, “When I sent you without purse and pack and shoes, lacked ye anything?” And they said, “Nothing.” In Luke 10:4 we saw where Jesus sent the apostles to go out to do the kingdom work and instructed them to "neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes:" Why? It is for the reason that a workman is worthy of his wages". (Matthew 10:10) .  And now in our memory verse, it shows that on that mission they lacked nothing because grace constrained people to give to them. When God calls He equipped, when He sends you, he provides. God can never abandon you in the assignment he gave you; He will always make all grace that brings about all sufficiency to be available for you. He said, "I said not unto the seed of Jacob, ‘Seek ye Me in vain." (Isaiah 45:19). Certainly, He takes care of His own, He rewards every labour and supplies every need. Grace provides, He brings about favour, He...

ESTABLISHING GOD’S WILL 2

  ESTABLISHING GOD’S WILL 2 MEMORY VERSE: - Jeremiah 29:11 - "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." In Psalm 33:11 the psalmist says, “The Lord’s plans stand firm forever.” Now, for the fact that the Lord says His plan for us is to prosper, it then means that His plans to prosper us stand firm and are eternal, no power, force nor any human agent can stop us from prospering. Furthermore, in Mathew 6:10 we see Jesus making us to understand how important it is for us to be in the center of the perfect Will of God when He said we should pray for it. “ Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done in the earth as it is in Heaven” God's plans are His perfect Will for us. Jesus through this great teaching on prayer for God’s Will to be done, has revealed to us the importance of us experiencing God’s plans in our lives on earth. Thus, there is a great need for us to desire to know God's pe...
