When You Are Truly With God, Nothing Else Matters


When You Are Truly With God, Nothing Else Matters

What decides, determines and shows that you are truly with God is how you live and treat your fellow humans.
Not coming online to lie and name dropping God in the conceit and deceit of fallacy and hypocrisy.
Not in the eye service and lip service of deceivers and pretenders.
You may fool as many people as you can, because the world prefers to live pretense and prefers lies to the truth.
But no one can lie to God, because He is the TRUTH.

Our Lord, Saviour and Messiah Jesus Christ has cleared all doubts. If you are still confused, go and read Matthew 7.

To my brethren who need the gift of discernment from the Holy Spirit, read the following revelation of Jesus Christ and ask for His Holy Spirit. The Spirit of TRUTH.

The Fall of Haman, the Enemy of Progress


The Fall of Haman, the Enemy of the Chosen People of God.

Esther 7, New King James Version (NKJV).

Haman Hanged Instead of Mordecai
7 So the king and Haman went to dine with Queen Esther. 2 And on the second day, at the banquet of wine, the king again said to Esther, “What is your petition, Queen Esther? It shall be granted you. And what is your request, up to half the kingdom? It shall be done!”

3 Then Queen Esther answered and said, “If I have found favor in your sight, O king, and if it pleases the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request. 4 For we have been sold, my people and I, to be destroyed, to be killed, and to be annihilated. Had we been sold as male and female slaves, I would have held my tongue, although the enemy could never compensate for the king’s loss.”

5 So King Ahasuerus answered and said to Queen Esther, “Who is he, and where is he, who would dare presume in his heart to do such a thing?”

6 And Esther said, “The adversary and enemy is this wicked Haman!”

So Haman was terrified before the king and queen.

7 Then the king arose in his wrath from the banquet of wine and went into the palace garden; but Haman stood before Queen Esther, pleading for his life, for he saw that evil was determined against him by the king. 8 When the king returned from the palace garden to the place of the banquet of wine, Haman had fallen across the couch where Esther was. Then the king said, “Will he also assault the queen while I am in the house?”

As the word left the king’s mouth, they covered Haman’s face. 9 Now Harbonah, one of the eunuchs, said to the king, “Look! The gallows, fifty cubits high, which Haman made for Mordecai, who spoke good on the king’s behalf, is standing at the house of Haman.”

Then the king said, “Hang him on it!”

10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the king’s wrath subsided.

New King James Version (NKJV)

Every Haman standing against you in every public office or private office shall be defeated by Almighty God JEHOVAH in the mighty name of Jesus Christ our Lord, Saviour and Messiah. AMEN.

Stand right with God and continue speaking the Truth to expose every lie and every evil.

Psalm 91:14-16, New International Version (NIV).

14 “Because he[a] loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him;
I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.
15 He will call on me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble,
I will deliver him and honor him.
16 With long life I will satisfy him
and show him my salvation.”
AMEN.

Symptoms of Witchcraft in Fake Christians


Many church goers pretending to be Christians are in fact witches and wizards practicing withcraft in the camouflage of Christianity.
As we all know; not all church goers are Christians.
Going to church is not the qualification for Christianity, but accepting and obeying the commandments of our Lord Jesus Christ. As He said in John 14:15 KJV: "If ye love me, keep my commandments".
If you don't keep the commandments of Jesus Christ, you are not a Christian.
There is no argument or disputation.
That is the absolute truth.
Don't let the conceit and deceit of many church goers fool you.
The eye service and lip service of fake Christians can only fool those who are ignorant of what Jesus Christ said.

The Tree and Its Fruit

15 “Beware of false prophets who come disguised as harmless sheep but are really vicious wolves.
16 You can identify them by their fruit, that is, by the way they act. Can you pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?
17 A good tree produces good fruit, and a bad tree produces bad fruit.
18 A good tree can’t produce bad fruit, and a bad tree can’t produce good fruit.
19 So every tree that does not produce good fruit is chopped down and thrown into the fire.
20 Yes, just as you can identify a tree by its fruit, so you can identify people by their actions.

The Virus of Evil


Evil is a deadly virus.
Small evils become big evils.
The virus of evil is in the DNA of humans from the original sin.
And they reproduce to increase and spread through human relationships.
The virus of bitterness.
The virus of covetousness.
The virus of envy.
The virus of jealousy.
The virus of falsehood or lies.
The virus of greed.
The virus of hatred.

The mutations of these viruses turn humans to devils to do evils if they or we fail to destroy these evils from the first sight of them.
The evils humans failed to destroy are what have been destroying millions of humans since the original sin caused by disobedience, because disobedience causes violence and violence causes destruction of humans.

You must attack and destroy every evil immediately you see it in yourself or anyone else.
Don't cover evil.
Expose every evil before it is too late.
Once you expose evil, it does not last long. But if you cover evil and hides it like a contagious disease, it will increase and spread and becomes worse.
Say the truth even if the bitter truth condemns you or someone you love.
Anyone who hates or dislikes you for saying the truth is an EVIL Doer.
If we don't destroy evils; evils will destroy us.

My Thoughts On My 71st Birthday


My Thoughts On My 71st Birthday.
 ðŸŽ‰

The happiest day of my life was when I fell in love with The Holy Spirit on a Wednesday morning at 7:00 a.m., July 13, 1994. He is my very life. And, my obsession is to obey him every second of every hour until I see Him face-to-face. His Companionship Is The Secret To Surviving The Storms.

“When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee,” (Isaiah 43:2).

The Mystery of The Passion, The Resurrection and Power of Salvation in Christianity


The Mystery of The Passion, The Resurrection and Power of Salvation in Christianity

The celebration of Easter is based on The Passion of our Lord and Messiah Jesus Christ from His triumphant entrance into Jerusalem to His arrest, trial and His crucifixion on Mount Calvary; followed by His victorious resurrection which is the confirmation of our Salvation.
King David and Prophet Isaiah gave extraordinary revelations of the birth, The Passion and Resurrection of Jesus Christ hundreds of years before He was born by the Virgin Mary.
The accuracies in the Holy Bible are astonishing.
But majority of church goers who confess and profess to be believers and Christians often fail to express the power of their faith, because they have failed to worship Almighty God JEHOVAH heart and soul and spirit.
As it is written in John 4:24:
"God is spirit, and His worshipers must worship Him in the Spirit and in truth."


You cannot experience the power of our faith if you are just playing church in eye service and lip service without practicing Christianity.
You cannot worship God in conceit and deceit.
Almighty God does not answer the prayers of liars.
Jesus Christ said clearly as it is written in John 14:15:
"If you love me, keep my commandments."
That is the only way to prove that you are a true Christian.
And until you do so, you can never experience the power of our faith which is our spiritual strength.
Majority of church goers are just emotional without spiritual relationship with God. And you cannot have any relationship with Him without connection to His Holy Spirit.

Before Jesus Christ started his divine mission, He was baptized by Prophet John and then the glory of the Holy Spirit descended upon him.


Note the Water and the Spirit and then he started his mission which ended with the bleeding and shedding of His precious innocent blood as the immaculate lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world as written in Matthew 26:28:
"This is my blood of the new covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins."
It is written in Revelation 12:11: "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death".


The mystery of The Passion and the Resurrection and the power of our faith is revealed in First John 5:5-12:

5 Who is it that overcomes the world? Only the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God.

6 This is the one who came by water and blood—Jesus Christ. He did not come by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth. 7 For there are three that testify: 8 the[a] Spirit, the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement. 9 We accept human testimony, but God’s testimony is greater because it is the testimony of God, which he has given about his Son. 10 Whoever believes in the Son of God accepts this testimony. Whoever does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because they have not believed the testimony God has given about his Son. 11 And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12 Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life.

Why People Remember the Stories of Jesus More than His Sermons


“By now, everybody knows me to be a storyteller. Our Daddy in heaven, Jesus, was the best storyteller you can ever find. I have discovered that some people remember the stories more than the sermons,” the author quotes Pastor Adeboye has explaining of his trademark style of exhorting people when he preaches.

“I tell you these stories because when you hear those in the Bible and hear those happening right now, you appreciate them better,” he explains at a different forum while on another occasion, he notes that: “When these stories or testimonies come to some people, they sometimes mean much more than even the sermon.”

Click here to order "Stories of Pastor E. A. Adeboye: The Power of Testimony".

Stories of miracles indeed enhance faith-building and what Daniels has done in this engrossing work of 350 pages and six sections is to painstakingly compile the testimonies of Daddy GO, the spiritual leader and chief missioner of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), and present them chronologically, right from his birth to the present (February 2017), to read like an autobiography.

Given the magnitude of Pastor Adeboye’s task and the near impossibility of getting him to sit down for interviews for a real biography, the author’s approach is ingenious. And not only is it creative, it works because Pastor Adeboye narrates the testimonies in his measured, calm voice that reassures.

Testimonial Evangelism: Seeing is Believing


Testimonial Evangelism

What is testimonial evangelism?
It is the preaching of the gospel by facts of the evidence or proof of the experience of the presence of Almighty God JEHOVAH in your life.

John 4:48 "Unless you people see signs and wonders," Jesus told him, "you will never believe."

If you have no testimonials of the Holy Spirit, you cannot convince unbelievers.
As our Lord and Messiah Jesus Christ said: Seeing is Believing.

You must show by example what Almighty God has done for you.

Your lifestyle must show your true essence of Christianity in character and faith no matter the challenges, difficulties, temptations and trials of foreseen and unforeseen circumstances of life.

I was a refugee child during one of the bloodiest uncivil wars in Africa.
My beloved mother had lost three of her six children and I was very ill. Neighbours told her that I would not survive. She was totally heart broken, but she did not give up her faith in Almighty God. She continued to cry and pray to Him. They thought I would die, but then the Holy Spirit came upon me and I started speaking in tongues. And I was healed. Almighty God JEHOVAH saved my life. That is why I can share this awesome testimony of His amazing grace and shout "HALLELUJAH!" today.

What's your own evidence of His existence and presence from your personal experience or an eye witness account?

Solemnity in Divinity as Pastor Adeboye Celebrates 75Th Birthday


Adeboye@75: silence on a loud day

~ by Bisi Daniels

It was Pastor E.A. Adeboye’s birthday and the 31st anniversary of the monthly Holy Ghost Service of the Redeemed Christian Church of God on March 2. The service is always heavily attended, a part reason for a 3-kilometre-by-3-kilometre auditorium called The Arena. But people who had taken a cue from the 75-hour non-stop praise of the Lord to expect fanfare and cake-cutting during the week arrived the Arena to the usual service, the birthday having been celebrated privately. Pastor Adeboye is not known to put himself in God’s way or share in God’s glory or time. In fact, preachers at the service on March 2, were youths from four zones of the church.

This is My Beloved Son, in Whom I am Well Pleased; Hear Ye Him


"And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light. And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elijah talking with him. Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah. While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him. And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid. And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid. And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only. And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead."
(Matthew 17:1–9, KJV)

Many Churches in Nigeria Need To Clean Up Their Dirty Environment


1 Corinthians 14:33 For God is not a God of disorder but of peace--as in all the congregations of the Lord's people.

I see many churches in Nigeria in urgent need of general sanitation of the dirty and stinking surroundings of their church buildings with heaps of refuse decorating the streets of the church.


Dirty churches should clean up their nearby streets and clear the gutters full of refuse and human waste. The dirty and filthy environment of a church is a bad testimony of the church and church goers.

Lest we forget, our Lord and Messiah Jesus Christ was so clean whilst on earth over 2000 years ago that his Roman executioners cast lots to win His precious garment during His crucifixion.

Our Almighty God JEHOVAH loves orderliness and does not compromise His holiness. So, any form of disorderliness, dirtiness and filthiness is not of God.
Being dirty and filthy is a bad testimony for Christianity.

I Will Revive the One With A Broken Spirit and A Contrite Heart


15 For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.

16 For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be always wroth: for the spirit should fail before me, and the souls which I have made.

17 For the iniquity of his covetousness was I wroth, and smote him: I hid me, and was wroth, and he went on frowardly in the way of his heart.

18 I have seen his ways, and will heal him: I will lead him also, and restore comforts unto him and to his mourners.

19 I create the fruit of the lips; Peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is near, saith the Lord; and I will heal him.

20 But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt.

21 There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.

You Cannot Know God Until He Reveals Himself To You


Anybody can claim to know God.
But You cannot know God until HE has revealed HIMSELF to you. And HE cannot reveal HIMSELF to you without HIS Holy Spirit. So, without His Holy Spirit you can never know God.
Anyone who knows HIM does not live a life of conceit and deceit.
God hates lies for He said Satan is the father of lies.
So, whosoever tells lies is not of God.
Because, our Lord Jesus Christ said:
"You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies."
- John 8:44.

The chief demon is known by several names: Lucifer, Satan, the Devil, Old Nick, Beelzebub, the Tempter, the Father of Lies, the Evil One, and the ancient Dragon. And those who belong to him behave like him. Deceivers, liars, pretenders, ingrates, troublemakers, evil doers and others like them who are legions among humans.

If you truly know God, you will not live a life of lies.
And without God your life is empty even if you are Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg or President Donald Trump.

How Magnificent You Are, O Lord!


How Magnificent You Are, O Lord!

How magnificent you are to me
How magnificent for my eyes to see
To see the wonders of your creations
Your magnificent creations beyond human imaginations
To behold the beauty of your holiness
And to behold the glory of your righteousness.

Refrain: How magnificent you are, O Lord!

You are highly exalted throughout the ages
And we praise you in our different languages
Praising your holy name from nation to nation
As we rejoice in the joy of salvation
Because we are the redeemed of the Lord
And we have become the children of Almighty God.

Jesus Christ Does Not Like Empty Life Without Worthy Legacy

Jesus Christ Does Not Like Empty Life Without Worthy Legacy

The contradiction in the lives of majority of Nigerian church goers who claim to be Christians is that their lifestyles are contrary to the commandments of Jesus Christ and they don't even follow His teachings. And that's why they have empty lives.
Our Lord Jesus Christ said:

Matthew 5:13 "You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.

Matthew 5:16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

Luke 11:33 "No one lights a lamp and puts it in a place where it will be hidden, or under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, so that those who come in may see the light.


Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.
NOW LOOK AT YOUR LIFE

Does your life have any saltiness (worthiness) to your society or you are just living for yourself?

Is your life shining in the world?
Do you shine for others to see your good works?
Or you don't even have any good work to show at all?

Lest we forget, your works are your achievements and your achievements are your legacy.
