GOD DOES NOT HATE YOU

By Rev.Michael Benson Ajayi
Matthew 18:14 "Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should
perish."Matt18:12-14
    True love is a rare commodity in today's world . It is against this backdrop that
the message of God's unconditional love for us when preached seems unreal , most people would say if God so loved us ,why
does he allow so much sufferings in the world .
        As difficult as it may sound the irrevocable truth still remains that we are the objects of God's love. God's plans for our salvation was not driven by a sense of pity for us or of moral obligation to save us. He saved us because of His infinite love for us (Jn. 3:16).God loves people. He even loves those who rebel against Him.
        Jesus said in (Lk. 15:7), "I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance."Once we experience the life-changing power of Christ,
there is a tendency to become harsh and impatient with others who continue to live outside God's will . We sometimes forget that
it was the love and goodness of God that brought us to repentance (Rom. 2:4), and we become condemning and judgmental
toward those outside our religious circle of friends. This is not the attitude that Jesus had, nor the attitude He wants us to have.The scriptures says in Eph2:4-8AMP Bible"But God—so rich is He in His mercy! Because of and in order to satisfy the great and wonderful and intense love which He loved us,
Even when we were dead (slain) by [our own] shortcomings and trespasses, He made us alive together in fellowship and in
union with Christ; [He gave us the very life of Christ Himself, the same new life with which He quickened Him, for] it is by grace
(His favor and mercy which you did not deserve) that you are saved (delivered from judgment and made partakers of Christ’s
salvation). God loves YOU!

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....

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 wa...

CONSEQUENCES OF LACK OF FAITH

Image
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...
