THE LORD'S PRAYER

Image
Prayerfully read this article.                       Our Father Who Art In Heaven. - YES? - Don't interrupt me. I'm praying. - BUT -- YOU CALLED ME. - Called you? No, I didn't call you. I'm praying. Our Father who art in heaven. - THERE -- YOU DID IT AGAIN. - Did what? - CALLED ME. YOU SAID, "OUR FATHER, WHO ART IN HEAVEN." WELL, HERE I AM. WHAT'S ON YOUR MIND? - But, I didn't mean anything by it. I was, you know, just saying my prayers for the day. I always say the Lord's Prayer. It makes me feel good, kind of like fulfilling a duty. - WELL, ALL RIGHT. GO ON. - Okay, Hallowed be Thy name... - HOLD IT RIGHT THERE. WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT? - By what? - BY "HALLOWED BE THY NAME"? - It means, it means ... good grief, I don't know what it means. How in the world should I know? It's just a part of the prayer. By the way, what does it mean? - IT MEANS HONORED, HOLY, WONDERFUL. - Hey, that makes sen

FAITH AND ACTION

GOOD MORNING IN JESUS NAME. . In Matthew 7:24-27, Jesus said: "Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash. " I think what we see here is the same kind of thing James is talking about in James 2:14-26: "What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, "Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed," but does nothing about his physical need

CALLING GOD

This is a good and short night prayer. Hello God, I called tonight To talk a little while. I need a friend who'll listen To my anxiety and trial. You see, I can't quite make it Through a day just on my own. I need your love to guide me, So I'll never feel alone. I want to ask you please to keep My family safe and sound. Come and fill their lives with confidence For whatever fate they're bound. Give me faith, dear God, to face Each hour throughout the day And not to worry over things I can't change in any way. I thank you God for being home And listening to my call, For giving me such good advice When I stumble and fall. Your number, God, is the only one That answers every time. I never get a busy signal, Never had to pay a dime. So thank you, God, for listening To my troubles and my sorrow. Good night, God, I love You too, And I'll call again tomorrow!

DREAM INTERPRETATION

Good day Sir, 1.I had a dream that I accompanied a friend's brother to the airport . 2. I saw myself measuring beans... MEANING 1. Something good is about to happen to someone close, it could be foreign trip or some other blessings. 2. Beans is blessing, it means you are already blessed by God but you need hard work and prayer for its physical manifestation. GOD BLESS YOU.

ACTING ON THE WORD

TEXT:   Matt 7:24-25 24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: 25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. TOPIC: ACTING ON THE WORD My last post was eight tips togetting closer to God, an important tip to getting closer to God is ACTING ON THE WORD. In today’s article, I will write on this important tip “ACTING ON THE WORD” Believing demands action, creates action. Acting on the Word is doing the Word, it is letting Christ act through you. Acting on the Word, then, gives God an opportunity. Giving the Word its place in our life is giving Christ His position of Lordship. The term “believe” is made simple when we know that it is acting on what God has spoken.                                  Matt 7:24-25 24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of

8 steps to a better relationship with God

1. Schedule a devotional "appointment." Write a specific time and location on your calendar, or in your planner. You might want to choose a time that corresponds with another daily activity: after you get up in the morning, right after school, or immediately after dinner. Try to avoid putting devotions off until the end of the day. 2. Choose your tools. Some basics include:  1) A Bible. Biblegateway.com offers 16 versions for you to compare, from that classic King James Version to modern versions like The Message. Or, consider using a student or study Bible—many contain reading plans and practical ways to apply Scripture to everyday situations.  2) A devotional book. Some are specifically for students. Many have a "thought for the day" and questions to help you relate the verses you've read to your own life. 3) A journal. Use it to record your favorite verses and reflections on Scripture. Or, try writing a poem or letter to God. 3. Start with prayer

THE CHURCH

Image
                                                                                 TEXT: ACTS 2:47      Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved. TOPIC: THE CHURCH            The term church is derived from a Greek word EKKLESIA, ekklesia means the called out. Understanding the definition of Ekklesia is an important component of understanding the church. Ekklesia is a Greek word defined as “a called-out assembly or congregation.” Ekklesia is commonly translated as church in the New Testament. For example, Acts 11:26 says that “Barnabas and Saul met with the church (Ekklesia)” in Antioch. And in 1 Corinthians 15:9 Paul says that he had persecuted the church (Ekklesia) of God. The “called-out assembly”, then, is a congregation of believers whom God has called out of the world and “into His wonderful light” (1 Peter 2:9). The Greek ekklesia is the basis for our English word ecclesiastical (pertain

A CALL FROM GOD

One Saturday night, a pastor was working late and decided to call his wife before he left for home. It was about 10:00 PM, but his wife didn't answer the phone. The pastor let it ring many times. He thought it was odd that she didn't answer but decided to wrap up a few things and try again in a few minutes. When he tried again, she answered right away. He asked her why she hadn't answered before, and she said that it hadn't rung at their house. They brushed it off as a fluke and went on their merry ways.The following Monday, the pastor received a call at the church office, which was the phone that he'd used that Saturday night. The man that he spoke with wanted to know why he'd called on Saturday night. The pastor couldn't figure out what the man was talking about. Then the man said, "It rang and rang, but I didn't answer." The pastor remembered the mishap and apologized for disturbing him, explaining that he'd intended to call his

WHOM SAY YE THAT I AM?

TEXT: MATTHEW 16:13-19 TOPIC: WHOM SAY YE THAT I AM?                 In the above text, Jesus Christ asked his disciples who people said he was. His disciples answered Him, some said He was Elijah, some one of the Prophets, some john the Baptist. Jesus then asked His disciples “who do you think I am?” Jesus Christ had to ask His disciples this important question because it is ok if the people of the world do not know whom He is but it is disastrous for His disciples not to know Him.                 Thank God one of Jesus’ disciples Simon peter knew who He was and gave Jesus the right answer. Jesus Christ is asking you the same question He asked his disciples at Phillipi that “who do you think I am?”                 From the text above, I can see that there are two sources of God’s revelation, I mean one can know God via two ways. The first source is from other’s people testimony about God and the second one is through one’s personal revelation of God.  REVELATIONS O

THE WORD CONT'D

                                                                       Yesterday, I introduced us to the Word, we were made to understand that Jesus Christ is Logos/the word. Today, i  want us to look at the importance or works of the Word, in today's lesson, we shall all see how important Logos is to all believers.                                                                                                                                       THE WORKS OF THE WORD Word is our contact with God  The word is our contact with God the Father.

We are convicted by the Word  Conviction come from no other source than the Word. It is a threefol

Memo from God

From: God To: All His Children I am God. Today, I will be handling all of your problems. Please remember that I do not need your help. If life happens to deliver a situation to you that you cannot handle, do not attempt to resolve it. Kindly put it in the SFGTD (something for God to do) box. All situations will be resolved in My time, not yours. Once the matter is placed into the box, do not hold onto it by worrying about it. Instead, focus on all the wonderful things that are present in your life now. If you find yourself stuck in traffic, don't despair. There are people in this world for whom driving is an unheard of privilege. Should you have a bad day at work, think of the man who has been out of work for years. Should you despair over a relationship gone bad, think of the person who has never known what it's like to love and be loved in return. Should you grieve the passing of another weekend, think of the woman in dire straits, working twelve hours a day,

My Attorney

                          PAID IN FULL After living what I felt was a "decent" life, my time on earth came to the end. The first thing I remember is sitting on a bench in the waiting room of what I thought to be a court house. The doors opened, and I was instructed to come in and have a seat by the defense table. As I looked around, I saw the "prosecutor." He was a villainous looking gent who snarled as he stared at me. He definitely was the most evil person I have ever seen. I sat down and looked to my left and there sat My Attorney, a kind and gentle looking man whose appearance seemed so familiar to me; I felt I knew Him. The corner door flew open and there appeared the Judge in full flowing robes. He commanded an awesome presence as He moved across the room. I couldn't take my eyes off of Him. As He took His seat behind the bench, He said, "Let us begin." The prosecutor rose and said, "My name is Satan, and I am here to show you why this m
