Seek Your Freedom


Anchor Scripture: “Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.” John 8: 39

Further Reading: Joshua 24: 14 – 15; John 8: 31 – 36; Romans 6: 15 – 23;

Admonition 
One of the things I found so amazing in Christianity today is that we Christians are making a mockery of the basic tenets of our faith. Christians today are ignoring what they should take very seriously, but taking very seriously, things that should be ignored.
What I am saying, in essence, is that we Christians today deceive ourselves too much. Many church leaders are masters in deceits and crafts; they are like the Pharisees of old, washing the outside clean, but leaving the inside dirty (Mat. 23: 25 – 26).
You see brethren, most times when prayer points are called, I just laugh. You know why? It is because we are not sincere with God. Hear this and hear it well, man is not a slave to witches and wizards, nor any principalities and powers. THE ONLY THING MAN IS A SLAVE TO IS SIN. It is sin that makes a man vulnerable to these satanic messengers.
But Proverbs 16: 7 says “When a man's ways please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.” God has power over all powers and principalities to keep them quiet if we yielded ourselves unto Him. But as long as we dwell in sin, those powers will continue to dominate us because we are a slave to sin which happens to be their motivator/driver, and from which, they derive their legitimacy to torment man.

Brethren, no one who wants to FINISH STRONGLY with God will remain a slave to sin by continuing to commit sin. Apostle Paul admonished that sin should no longer be our master. It is not bad to have walked, wallowed and even lived in sin in the past, but it is worst to continue in it.
Therefore, on a final note, to FINISH STRONGLY with God, we must seek our freedom from sin. Stop seeking deliverance from witches and wizards, BUT SEEK DELIVERANCE FROM SIN for until you’re free from sin, you can’t be free from witches, wizards, principalities and powers!

Till tomorrow when we shall meet again on this beautiful journey of FINISHING STRONG together, keep keeping on in Him!

Yours in Him,

Hold On To Your Faith

Anchor Scripture: “ Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him:” – Job 13: 15a Scripture References: Job 23: 8 – 12 Admonition Greetings from the Throne of Grace! Another word for faith is TRUST. So, this morning, God is calling us to trust Him whatever our situations might be. The natural man will instinctually try as hard as possible to avoid pains and discomforts. However, the book of Job 5: 7 speaks a truth that is a common heritage of all humans. It says, “ Yet man is born unto trouble, as the sparks fly upward.” And Job 14: 1 corroborates this truth, saying,  “ Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble.” These are truth which no man has been able to disprove. Resting on these Scriptures, I do tell people during Bible classes that there is no man without his own trouble, no matter how little . And this is true irrespective of whom you are, what you have and or where you were born; we all have our own measures of troubles. The pro

UNDERSTANDING THE WILL OF GOD: Lean Not On Your Own Understanding

Anchor Scripture: Isaiah 55:8   For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.”   Focus Scripture: “ Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.” – Proverbs 3: 5 Scripture Reference: Numbers 14: 39 - 45 Admonition Greetings from the Throne of Grace! Yesterday, the Holy Spirit made known to us that what is called the Will of God is God’s plan or Wish for us as His children, and that these cannot be changed by anyone or anything if we stick with Him. Sometimes, we tend to believe in ourselves because of some things such as talents, ability, resources, knowledge and or wisdom. Because of these things and many more, we take decisions without honouring God in our thoughts. At the end, God makes a mess of whatever venture we embarked on. Such was the Israelites in Numbers 14: 39 - 45. As said yesterday, just as each man has a thought or will for themselves, so is God for every man.

AVOID CONDEMNATION: Walk in the Spirit

Anchor Scripture: Romans 8: 1 “ There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.”  Focus Scripture: “ This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. ” –Galatians 5: 16 Scripture References: John 3: 1 – 8, 16 - 19; Romans 1: 18 – 32, 1 – 14; Galatians 5: 16 – 26; 1 John 2: 15 - 17 Admonition Greetings from the Throne of Grace! Yesterday, the Holy Spirit of God admonished us to watch the companies we keep because our association with them could make us do things that are contrary to the Kingdom’s choice. And an example was given of Jehoshaphat. May God help us in Jesus name, amen. Today, we are being told to “Walk in the Spirit”. The Holy Spirit was given to us as Guardian to help and keep us in and on the way to the Kingdom. The Holy Spirit is a teacher, meant to teach us right from wrong and He helps us in making the right choices. Most often,
