PARENTING

Text :  Psalms  127:3

Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.

When you think about normal children, the first thing that readily comes to mind is a child that appears physically and mentally healthy. Well, this definition can suffice in an academic or medical parlance, but not in the Spirit realm. 

A normal child is one that is whole spirit, soul and body. And this can only come about with the aid of Godly parenting.

God expects His children to raise goodly children for Him. This is one of the reasons He said you should not be unequally yoked with an unbeliever. (2 Corinthians 6:14).

When a believer joins himself/herself in marriage with an unbeliever,  he/she has joined himself with a wrong spirit. 

 *Essentially, everyone is controlled by a Spirit.  A child of God is controlled by the Spirit of God, if you are not His child, you are controlled by the evil Spirit.*  

Romans 8:14 says *For all who are led by God’s Spirit are God’s children.*  So, when a child of God goes into Union with a non-child of God , he/she automatically accepts the devil to co-parent their children for them.

The only caveat to this is, when the two (man and wife) both got married as unbelievers, then if along the line, one of them got converted. 

The new believer shouldn't separate from his/her partner except if the partner wants out. This is well stipulated in the word of God. 

For the unbelieving husband has been sanctified because of his wife, and the unbelieving wife has been sanctified because of her husband. Otherwise, your children would be unclean, but now they are holy (1 Corinthians 7:14).

God knows the importance of parenting, that's why He ensures that no child jumps down from heaven, they all have to come through a father and a mother.

Once, the parents failed to perform their duty, the child will not be balanced in life except through divine intervention. This explains why we have many wounded and internally abnormal children today.

However, there's no child so damaged that God cannot heal. He is a Father that cares for His children even when the child does not deserve it. 

He is still in the business of changing abnormalities to normal. Go to Him today and He will see you through.

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...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

IN MY NAME.

Text : Mark 16:17-18  And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. Having believed in the gospel (Good news of the resurrection of Jesus and His victory over Sin, Satan and Death), you now need to start using the name of Jesus authoritatively. JESUS said that in His name you shall cast out devils; you shall speak with new tongues; you shall take up serpents; and if you drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt you; you shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. This means that you will undertake all these in the authority of Jesus' name. No matter how small or powerless you may think you are in your own eyes. Once you believe in His name, you shall do all that He promised.   Unbelief was the sin that Israelites committed that wasted a whol...
