For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.  Text: 1 Corinthians 1:18 Understanding the power of the cross is instrumental in our understanding of the concepts of KingdomNomics. It is by the cross that we are crucified to the world and have new life in Jesus Christ. Paul boasted about the cross in his own life with regard to his relationship to the world and the passions of the flesh. He was dead to them by the power of the cross. The same can be said of us when we apply the power of the cross to our own lives. God’s power overcame Jesus’ death on the cross! And it is the power of the cross that gives us new hope and new perspective for living. Through the power of the cross, we are able to overcome the giants of consumerism and greed. They relentlessly pursue us to keep us from giving to the work of God. It is the power of the cross that enables us to overcome these giants by the p...

  And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me. Text: Psalms 50:15. Please read the whole of Psalms 50  bring your questions and comments. God wants you to ask him for help when you are in trouble. And I guess that this must be a quick, short, to-the-point kind of a call: Like, Help!. When temptation strikes suddenly you don’t have time for a long prayer to God, simply cry out! Lord help me! I know that no human calls out another for help mentioning their first and last names. David, Daniel is just enough. Countless people in the Bible prayed this kind of instant prayer for help whilst in trouble. The Bible guarantees that our cry for help will be heard because Jesus is sympathetic to our struggle. He faced the same kinds of problems we do. He understands our weaknesses. If God is waiting to help us, why don’t we turn to him more often? Honestly, sometimes is like we don’t want to be helped! At that moment we thi...

Pretty words are not always true and true words are not always pretty.

If we say we have no sin [refusing to admit that we are sinners], we delude ourselves and the truth is not in us. [His word does not live in our hearts.] 1John 1:8 Please read the whole of 1 John 1 When you are sinning, and thinking that what you are doing will produce better result, you are deceiving yourself. Sin always involves deceit. To stop this self defeating experiences, you must stop deceiving yourself. To do this: Take a honest look at your life. Face the truth and deal with any issue you discover. Answer the question: Is there something in my life that I am pretending is not a problem? If so, No matter what it is, you are definitely using it to manage a pain. The truth is that until you acknowledge the root of the problem healing will remain elusive.

Acknowledge the root of the problem and ask God...

Your happiness shouldn't come from looking Good, but from doing Good. One thing is sure, after you have gone, people will only remember you deeds, not how good you look.

Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. Text: Proverbs 22:6 Please read the chapter One of the most important phase in life is the childhood phase. Most of the things that we do as adults are the by-effects of our childhood experiences. This is why we need to ensure that our children be taught the right things while they are growing up. The "right way" to train a child is to bring them up in the things of God. Children are never too young to learn about the gospel. Teach them about Jesus Christ and what He came to do for us on earth. As the child grows, advance the teachings until the child is able to understand the Bible on their own. As a parent, teachers, and leader, pour out as much love, wisdom and knowledge into your children as you can, so that they can grow up to do greater things than you have done. Now, training a child is beyond telling them what to do. Children are keen observers. They learn fro...

Obstacles can't stop you. Problems can't stop you. Most of all people can't stop you. Only you can stop you. The only person that has the ability and capacity of stopping you, is you. Nobody else can stop you from whatever you have made up your mind to do. You're unstoppable, you're unlimited in anywhere. You have to develop a right motive of mindset that you're not limited to where you're, you're not limited to what your are doing at the moment, what you've achieved now is not what you're limited to achieve, you can achieve more and more greatness in life, keep believing in yourself, believe you can achieve your goals and make your dreams become realities.

Failure is not the worst thing that could help to you, the worst of it is not starting all over again, tryi...

Two things to remember, Don't make decisions when you are angry. Don't make promises when you are happy.  These two principles are very especial to adhered to in life. Promisees and Decisions are key words that keeps you going. The decisions you make today will definitely affect you tomorrow in a positive way or the way round, today I ask you never to make a decision when you are angry, when someone provokes you, never say never, mind the words you spake as a result of what someone has done to you. The decisions you make at that moment maybe a wrong decision, you have finally calmed down, then you will start to recollect what you have said or what you have done is the right thing to do. When you are provoked, learn to walk away, learn to always calm  yourself down, before you could say or act. Mind you is never easy to do so, but that the best thing to do. When you are happy and excited don't make Promises, this is very important because I have seen wh...

The connection between Divinity and Humanity is a straight line called 'Humility'. Jesus Christ, the son of God, to be human has to be Jesus of Nazareth, son of man, by implication has to relinquish his heavenly, glorious throne just to dwell and dine with humanity, even as an average human (citizen). After all his said and done, to be a divine entity, he still has to humble himself to death, even death on the cross (crucification), a form of death meant for notorious and unrepenting criminals, by implication, the highest form of condemnation at that time. He didn't accept the death sentence because he was guilty or powerless to stop the sentence, but accepted it because he was sentenced in the name of the government that being human, he was subject to and he don't want to be rebellious. Moreover, in all Jesus' story, was an action and word that is always pronounced and observed in both his personality and preachings, the word is "humility...

And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another : and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. Text: Hebrews 10:24-25 Please read the chapter and bring on your question and comments. Walk in love with one another is part of our profession of faith Jesus said, our love for one another will testify to the world that we are his disciples. The world looks to Christians when seeking the existence and legitimacy of God. If they do not see that love of God emulated within us, they will not be convinced of who we say God truly is. Instead of provoking one another to anger or dispute, we are to provoke one another to love. We should seek to bring out the loving side of every believer that we come across. This can be done through our words and actions. Pay attention to the needs and concerns of others and treat them if you can. Good works are a p...

Everybody is important as Everyone. Never Belittle Anyone! It is often said: Don't break the bridge after you have crossed the river, because you don't know what awaits you where you are heading to at the moment. It is also said: Be careful on how you treat people on your way up, because you might need them when it is time for you to come down. This statement can't be overemphasized in the story of Naaman (Captain of the Army of the King of Syria) and his maidservant an Israelite (a captive in Syria). Naaman a man of valor and mighty in stature was inflicted with leprosy, he covered it so hard that no one learns about his illness. He look happy and gallant outside, but he is always bitter and vulnerable to himself when he is alone. Naaman was very careful not to let anyone learn about his problem, so he is always in his armor, he didn't show that carefulness to his maid because he thought of her to be just a maid and nobody would even believe he...
