By Rev. Michael Benson Ajayi.  Proverbs 29: 18 "Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he. "          God reveals His will to us through visions. The word vision is the Hebrew word 'chaza' which means to gaze upon; mentally to dream, be usual. A vision is a pictorial display of a divine plan of action concerning a situation. It comes as a flash in your subconscious. The scriptures says in Numbers 12:6 AMP 'And He said, Hear now My words: If there is a prophet among you, I the Lord make Myself known to him in a vision and speak to him in a dream.' God makes Himself known through visions. This shall be common in these last days as prophesied in Joel 2:28 AMP "And afterward I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions." It is worthy of note that a divine vision points to the righteousness of God ...

By Michael Benson Ajayi Ephesians 1:11 "In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated  according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:"         The above scriptures says that the born again christian has an inheritance from God, and what that means in reality is that there is no such thing as a poor person in the kingdom of God . Poverty is man made and it is as a result of not having sufficient knowledge of what the will of God is. The reason why there's an increase in poverty among Christians is because the level of ignorance of God’s word is on the increase.Much of what is practiced as worship is nothing but man- made religion. Religion is against divine wisdom and logic or rational thinking born out of divine revelation.            The early church by divine revelation operated on a economic system of commonwealth and as a result ,there ...

By Michael Benson Ajayi Matt 8:8-9 NKJV   “ The centurion answered and said, "Lord, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof. But only speak a word, and my servant will be healed. “              God loves to hear your voice in harmony with His written word. The word of God is of no effect when unspoken. It is laden with awesome potential energy when left unspoken. Potential energy is the energy due to the position of a thing and is of no use until it is dynamic.      When the word of God is spoken, we convert spiritual energy from the word within our hearts from potential energy to kinetic energy or energy in motion.            Until energy is in motion or dynamic, nothing moves. This is what happens when we pray out the scriptures .Romans 1:16 AMP says “ For I am not ashamed of the Gospel (good news) of Christ, for it is God's power ...

By Rev. Michael Benson Ajayi. Matt 5:7 NKJV   “ Blessed are the merciful, For they shall obtain mercy.       The word ‘ blessed ’ is a Greek word which means to be happy, envied, and spiritually prosperous — with life-joy and satisfaction in God's favor and salvation, regardless of one ’ s outward conditions. It is a state of being well spoken of by God and man .             God ’ s love unconditional but salvation vis a viz the process of appropriation of the provisions of this great salvation is conditional. For example, the scriptures say in Romans 1:17 that ‘ the Just shall live by faith ’ and that with God all things are possible (Matt19:26) ; this presupposes that access to unlimited resource and boundless opportunities are consequent upon a person working in harmony with God. Faith in God is a must to receive anything from Him and faith is: harmony in divine purpose. Every failure recor...

By Rev Michael Benson Ajayi. Your Faith Shall Not Fail Matthew 10:33, "But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven. ”   The word ‘ deny ’ is a Greek word ‘ arneomai ’ which means to contradict, i.e. disavow, reject, abnegate, refuse.             Every Christian will be tested at one time or the other on their level of loyalty to the lord. This is often done through very precarious conditions that we find ourselves in that requires making a choice between Christ and self. As we grow, we would encounter such events, however it doesn ’ t mean that every time we fail the test, it would lead to our being rejected by God as many preachers erroneously claim.   If that was the case, Peter who was appointed the first general superintendent of the church wouldn ’ t have been forgiven after he had denied Jesus three times in a row (John18:25-27). Jesus had foretold ...
