GOD ALREADY KNOWS YOUR NEED AND HAS MADE PROVISIONS

By Rev. Michael Benson Ajayi

GOD ALREADY KNOWS YOUR NEED AND HAS MADE PROVISIONS
 Matt 6:32 AMP”For the Gentiles (heathen) wish for and crave and diligently seek all these things, and your heavenly Father knows well that you need them all.”
      Prayer is simply a communication between God and His children. In communication there is exchange of information. It is a two way exercise therefore after speaking to the heavenly Father; one should wait for an answer. The answer could be through an inner voice by the Holy Ghost or through an anointed servant of God, ministry of angels or through the written word of God. God always replies all prayers and if we could develop the habit of waiting to hear from God to speak back to us, we would be less anxious and make fewer mistakes (errors) in our decision making. Satan always reminds us of our weaknesses during prayers in other to weaken our faith and eventually give up.
          God does not need you to ask for air to breath before giving you air to breath, He knows you need clean air as a matter of necessity. He already knows what we need. The scriptures say God has given us all that we need, 2 Peter 1:3-4NLT”By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. We have received all of this by coming to know him, the one who called us to himself by means of his marvelous glory and excellence.”What this means literarily is that just like the air we breathe, God has made provision for our jobs, marriages, healing, finances, academics, ministry etc. and we receive them through an intimate knowledge of Jesus’ voice. Therefore, instead of asking for a thing, we rather give thanks acknowledging that He has made the provision and should show us how to receive what has been made available. This is the essence of seeking for wisdom (James1:3)  
  There is a misconception of the scripture in Luke 18:1-7,8… "And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?.. " . God is likened to an unjust Judge who needs to be arm-twisted before He can answer a prayer .Many persons have gotten hurt as a result while carrying out so-called ‘spiritual assignments’ needed for answers to their prayers. The parable is a contrast, not a representation. Jesus is contrasting His willingness to answer our prayers with this unjust judge's unwillingness. This widow had more confidence in man solving her problem than in God, that’s shouldn’t be, He wants us to trust Him more than we trust any human being for our needs despite the devil’s delays (Daniel10:12-14) He will surely meet those needs. Trust Him. .

BREAK EVIL FAMILY PATTERNS

Image
 By Rev.Michael Benson Ajayi  Titus 1:12 -14 "One of themselves,   even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians   are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.  This  witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply,  that they may be sound in the faith;  Not giving  heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of  men, that turn from the truth."       The church in Crete was in disarray and the apostle assigned Titus to go and put things in order . On investigation it was discovered the church suffered from a vicious cycle of evil family  patterns. They were not enjoying the fruits of the salvation experience . An example of evil family patterns is that of King David who defiled Uriah's wife ,murdered him and his son Absalom murdered his brother Amnon (2Sam13) dethroned him and defiled his concubines openly (2Samuel16). His son Amnon defiled his sister Tamar (2Sam.13) and so on yet David was the anointed of the Lord.     Many christians suffer evil family patterns ( repeated d

CONSEQUENCES OF LACK OF FAITH

By Rev. Michael Benson Ajayi " Be careful then, dear brothers and sisters. Make sure that your own hearts are not evil and unbelieving, turning you away from the living God." Hebrews 3:12 NLTBible  ' Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and look at my hands. Put your hand into the wound in my side. Don’t be faithless any longer. Believe!”John 20:27 NLTBible     Faith is the guarantee of the manifestation an unseen reality . It is the reason behind the hope we have in God and the fulfilment of his promises. It is the substance ( title deed) of things hoped for ,the evidence of things not seen (Hebrew 11:1) .The Bible warns against not having faith in God. Lack of faith is equal to calling God a liar and untrustworthy. This type of reasoning turns us into enemy's of God.    The gospel is so much under attack by the activities of faithless religionists . They plan to replace the holy scripture with humanistic dogma. The danger in this is the relative approach t

COMMON CAUSES OF DISUNITY.

Image
 By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi "Even some men from your own group will rise up and distort the truth in order to draw a following."Acts 20:30 NLT   "An angry person starts fights; a hot-tempered person commits all kinds of sin." Proverbs 29:22 NLTBible        Disunity is defined as : disagreement and conflict within a group. It is the greatest hindrance to the promotion of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Disunity creates an avenue for Satan to promote sin.       The causes of disunity are not farfetched ,they include : Unhealthy Crave for power or self- promotion. Whenever there is an unhealthy pursuit of influence in a family or group it results in resistance. Self-promotion gives birth to unfair practices and injustices. In Numbers 12: 1-15  Moses' sister Miriam and Aaron rebelled against him desiring to rule by force and in Numbers 16 :1-35 Korah led an insurrection against Moses desiring to be part of leadership. In both cases ,God was not pleased with the rebels
