YOU ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOU KNOW IT

John 9:35 "Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said unto him, Dost thou believe on the Son of God?"
        Most  persons underestimate the magnitude of God's love and care for humanity  , we consider ourselves as not being important enough to deserve a special place in God's plan.However , the contrary is the truth as revealed in the above verse of scripture.If you were the only person on earth , Jesus would have still gone to the cross for you. 
         By seeking for this man in John 9:35 ,Jesus brought him into the center stage of God's love  . Jesus sought this man out when others had forsaken him. The acceptance and recognition of a person by Jesus is worth more than everything this world has to offer This is what launches a person into prominence with overflowing joy amidst difficulties. When our sufferings in Christ abound, then the comfort and consolation of Christ abounds much more.Those who for fear of rejection by men refuse to share the message of God's kingdom, do not have Jesus seeking them out (Jn. 9:22).They prefer the company of the hypocritical scribes and Pharisees than honour from God.
       Even though the believer in Christ is redeemed and delivered from many afflictions that were as a result of sin and its power, we are  not exempted from experiencing the sufferings or afflictions of Christ (2 Cor. 1:5; Col. 1:24). However, these afflictions are not sickness and poverty as some religious teachings suggest. These afflictions are described as the "fellowship of sufferings" that the believer will encounter for doing the will of God, or the sufferings brought on by one's allegiance to Christ.
      Rejection for righteousness' sake is not something we can avoid (2 Tim. 3:12). We must remember that as we live godly lives, suffering will follow.  These trials of our faith will result in a glorious promotion and praise at the appearing of Jesus Christ (1 Pet. 1:7). Jesus' comfort, strength, help, and love overshadows our trials if we make Him the center of our affection(Heb. 12:2)
     As you read this now receive grace for promotion and boldness to declare God's righteous counsel in the midst of persecution  in Jesus name..

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
