HOW TO DISCOVER YOUR FUTURE IN THE PAGES OF THE BIBLE

By Rev.Michael Benson Ajayi 
2 Tim 2:15 KJV  “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth”.
      The word ‘study’ is the Greek word ‘spoudazo’ it means: to use speed, to make effort, be prompt or earnest: do (give) diligence, be diligent , endeavour, labour. This implies that the studying of God’s word requires hard work, diligence and promptness. It requires the analysis of every word individually and it’s grammatical structure, biographical illustrations, historicity of each statement, authentication of authorship of each book, topical analysis and its relevance to present day life.  This is what it means to rightly dividing the word of truth. It is during this process that power is released to change our circumstance.   
       The bible is the revelation of the will of God in relation to man and the universe. It contains sufficient information about every human that had ever lived till date and through the scriptures one could safely predict the outcome of every action taken by man. It is for that reason that it remains the most reliable moral compass for all generations.
  The bible is coded with mysteries that can only be unlocked through indebt studies.  It contains the word and power of God . If there is anyone Satan dreads, it is has to be that fellow who is well grounded in the Holy Scriptures.
  The first thing one must recognize is that the Word of God is Spiritual therefore a spiritual approach to studying scriptures is indispensable .It must be approached with a reverential mindset because it is not an ordinary literature and should not be read from a carnal or fleshy point of view    1 Cor 2:14-15 NKJV  “But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.”  
    It is imperative to develop a hunger for truth, it is the conscious need to know the purpose and meaning of life that leads to the opening of the gate to spiritual knowledge . The hunger for truth should exceed that for food. The religious approach to reading scriptures may satisfy the ego and sense of duty however, it is insufficient in opening the doors of spiritual discernment. A great cook with a store of choice food supplies could still go hungry until he or she makes conscious effort to prepare the meal and eat it ,likewise having a library full of books is no guarantee for revelation knowledge.  A personal effort is necessary to discover the truth of the gospel  it should be received uncensored and unfiltered .
   Many believers are trained to owe more allegiance to their infinitesimal denomination than to the truth of the gospel  and as such see the bible through religious filters handed down by their leaders . A first- hand knowledge is indispensible to avoid reechoing human errors. The fact that a theology has been in existence for years does not make it truth. Some persons have become experts at promoting errors; often garnishing lies with sophistication. Matt 22:29 KJV  says “…. Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.”  We must seek the deep truth of scriptures , most truth do not lie on the surface .They must be mind through diligent search like a miner searches for precious stones .
  The more of truth you know, the more of the liberating power of God you will experience . As you receive Jesus Christ as lord and savior and read this now , receive grace to break every satanic stronghold in your life 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
