RICHES AND WEALTH SHALL BE IN THE HOUSE OF THE RIGHTEOUS



By Rev. Michael Benson Ajayi 
Matt 19:29-30 TLB “And anyone who gives up his home, brothers, sisters, father, mother, wife, children, or property, to follow me, shall receive a hundred times as much in return, and shall have eternal life. But many who are first now will be last then; and some who are last now will be first then."
     The life of the righteous is a life of sacrificial love. It requires moving against the tide of popular opinion and  suffering losses for refusing to compromise . The world sees this as foolishness, but it is the wisdom and power of God. 1 Cor 1:18-19 NLT “The message of the cross is foolish to those who are headed for destruction! But we who are being saved know it is the very power of God. As the Scriptures say,"I will destroy the wisdom of the wise and discard the intelligence of the intelligent." Ironically , the so-called educated or wise of the world are the most miserable and insecure : a confirmation of the validity of this scripture.   
      Planning one’s life outside the righteous will of God is the most frustrating thing to do as the world’s system and its anti-God ideals are cursed by God and angels assigned to ensure they fail. Except God approves of any project, it is bound to fail. Sustainable wealth is founded on integrity.  Unfortunately, many church goers daily make plans in exclusion of God’s righteous will preferring carnal principles for success from books authored by persons  with love for money over God. Marriages have suffered greatly as a result of this; it is one of the reasons behind the increase in mortality among young married men. Seeking wealth outside God’s righteous will is dangerous.Godliness and contentment is of great reward. James 4:13-16 NLT says “Look here, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we are going to a certain town and will stay there a year. We will do business there and make a profit." How do you know what your life will be like tomorrow? Your life is like the morning fog—it's here a little while, then it's gone.  What you ought to say is, "If the Lord wants us to, we will live and do this or that." Otherwise you are boasting about your own plans, and all such boasting is evil.”  The born again Child of God is already a success by reason of our inheritance in Jesus Christ . You cannot be blessed of God and at the same time be a failure.
    The righteous is blessed with the anointing to get wealth . There righteous labour is often rewarded with gifts from those whose lives have been impacted by their generosity and uncompromising righteousness , Ps 112:1-9TLB says  “For all who fear God and trust in him are blessed beyond expression. Yes, happy is the man who delights in doing his commands. His children shall be honored everywhere, for good men's sons have a special heritage.  He himself shall be wealthy, and his good deeds will never be forgotten. When darkness overtakes him, light will come bursting in. He is kind and merciful- and all goes well for the generous man who conducts his business fairly. Such a man will not be overthrown by evil circumstances. God's constant care of him will make a deep impression on all who see it.  He does not fear bad news, nor live in dread of what may happen. For he is settled in his mind that Jehovah will take care of him.  That is why he is not afraid but can calmly face his foes.  He gives generously to those in need. His deeds will never be forgotten. He shall have influence and honor.”
    Do not be intimidated by the false success of those who have compromised their righteousness to get a head way in life, Jesus said the uncompromisingly righteous will eventually overtake them. Those who seem to be ahead of you today and mock your righteous stands will soon be behind  “ But many who are first now will be last then; and some who are last now will be first then” Matt 19:30 . 
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 grace for uncommon financial breakthroughs and good health 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....

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...
