THE ONLY WAY

Text : John 14:6 ISV 

 *Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.* 

Many people and religious Sects do not have problem with God the father as it were, the problem has always been with them accepting the person of Jesus Christ. 

In fact, today, it seems politically incorrect to say that Jesus Christ is the only way to the Father. So what do you tell others who don’t’ believe this?

The early church was often called people of, “ *the way* ," Acts 9:2. Meaning, it was the way that Jesus taught, who Himself said He was the way, the truth, and the life. Obviously, Jesus meant that it is only through faith in Him that we have access to the Father in heaven. 

The world is what it is today because majority of people do not know *the way* Instead of seeking *the way,* they improvised other means for themselves. You hear students saying stuffs like, " he who knows the way will top his class." People in the market place, ask themselves about *the way* to success...

However, all these perverted ways only lead to more miseries and woes without any lasting Joy. But Jesus categorically declared that *"I AM THE WAY."* 

He didn't say he is a way or he is one of the ways. But He said I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE... A good question to ask here is, Jesus is the way to what? 

Well, He (Jesus) supplied the answer, He said, "...no one comes to the Father but through me" John 14:6. It is Important to know therefore, that Jesus is the way to the Father(the very source of life). And this presupposes that He is the way to the solution of all of man's problems. 

He is the way out of the predicament you are in now. Becauae Jesus is the only way to the Father, then, if you follow the way, you will gain access to the One who controls all things.*God is the creator of the universe and He rules over the affairs of men* . 2 Chronicles 20:6.  

For my fellow believers already in the church, It is very possible for you to have gotten so used to the name and person of "Jesus" that you no longer rely on His affirmation as the Way anymore. Hence, you are seeking another way to help yourself. I want to encourage you to find grace at this hour as you open your heart to approach and access the way(JESUS) one more time. 

He will surely come true for you. 

 *PRAYER FOCUS*

1. Repent of every alternative ways you have carved for yourself and ask God to forgive you. 

2. Ask God to give you grace to locate the way again and stay in Him. 

Bible reading: John 14:1-14.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

HIS VOICE- 2

Text : John 10:3. To him the porter opens; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out. We established yesterday that one thing you can't joke with as a true follower of Christ is *His Voice.* You must recognise and hearken to (obey) His voice. It is in doing this that your safety is assured.  Today, we want to see another responsibility of the Shepherd over His sheep.  To him the porter opens; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calls his own sheep by name, *and leads them out.* John 10:3.  He called you, that He might lead you. It is not enough for you to hear or recognise His Voice, you must allow Him to lead you as well.  Romans 8:14 says *For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.*   The Spirit leading you determines the family you belong to. Basically,  there are only two families in this world - the family of God, and the family of satan. In other words, we can say the Kingdom...
