FRIENDSHIP

Text: Proverbs 17:17.

A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.

Friendship is an asset. True friends are not in the relationship for what they can get out of it nor do they abandon or betray their friends in bad times. 

Biblical friends stick with you even when there is no perceived benefits in it. A true friend stays even in the midst of adversity.

Friendship is scarce today, you must take time out and make effort to build one.

Proverbs 18:24  says A man that has friends must show himself friendly. The first principle to making or getting a good and reliable friend is to ensure you are one yourself. MAKE YOURSELF FRIENDLY.

Essentially, you attract who you are. If you want a trustworthy, reliable and caring friend, you must have those qualities too.

Go out of your way to be of help to others. Be hospitable and be  accommodating.  The truth is, God has designed it that the ladder you need to climb to the next phase of your life is wrapped in another person. Until that person is favourably disposed towards you, your much needed help may not come. 

Abraham's decision to help the angels who disguised to him as strangers was what  unlocked the blessing which God had promised him.

It was Lot's show of hospitality that saved him from being perished with fire alongside the people of Sodom and Gomorrah. 

It was Rebecca's kind heart and diligence that got her a Godly husband. 

As we start a new month today, make yourself friendly and good friends will come your way.

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...
