HE GIVES STRENGTH

 


By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi v

"He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless."

Isaiah 40:29 NLTBible 

    Thermodynamics is the branch of physical science that deals with the relations between heat and other forms of energy (such as mechanical,  chemical energy, electrical , potential ) and how they relate with each other.

 The first law of thermodynamics says: the total quantity of energy in the universe remains constant. This is the principle of the conservation of energy .The second law of thermodynamics states : the quality of this energy is degraded irreversibly. This is the principle of the degradation of energy. This means the physical world and it's elements are in a process of deterioration .

  This means naturally we would experience weaknesses , our bodies are made out of chemicals and are subject to aging and deterioration. 

   The bible speaks of the deterioration of the world and its system   "Those who use the things of the world should not become attached to them. For this world as we know it will soon pass away."1 Corinthians 7:31 NLTBible. This agrees with science and it is the consequence of Adam's sins in Eden. 

   God is the source of life and the creator of energy therefore he has to be greater than energy  , he is the anointing and anointer . The anointing of the Holy Ghost is the source of strength for the believer in Jesus Christ. 

   The bible says " But the salvation of the righteous is from the Lord ; He  is their strength in the time of trouble." Psalms 37:39 NKJVBible we can be sure to go further reach father because of the anointing of God's favour upon us. King David said "For by You I can run against a troop, By my God I can leap over a wall." Psalms 18:29 NKJVBible

    Whenever you feel like giving up or you are overwhelmed ask the Lord for his strength and he will strengthen you . 

   We should dedicate regular time for prayer , fasting and studying scriptures while meditating ( waiting on the Lord)  increases strength . " But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.

" Isaiah 40:31 NKJVBible

    Human strength is never sufficient to face life's challenges , we need power from within to overcome ." So he answered and said to me: “This is the word of the Lord .. ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ Says the Lord of hosts." Zechariah 4:6 NKJVBible

   The power to overcome  dwells within us and responds to our faith (2Cor4:7) therefore, we can say "  I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Philippians 4:13 NKJVBible. 

Prayer : Heavenly father forgive me of my sins against you I believe Jesus Christ died and was raised again for my salvation I receive him as lord and saviour and receive the Holy Ghost and power to overcome the opposition 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
