TEXT: 1 Corinthians. 15:14 

And if Christ is not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain.

The preaching and faith of every other belief systems are all in vain. There is no other way to God, there is no truth and there is no other life. except Jesus Christ our LORD. This is just the very truth. 

Being a genuine Christian makes you the most privileged person on this planet earth. This is because you are worshipping the true and the living God who gave His only begotten Son as a sacrifice for all. 

Jesus Christ, having offered himself as a sacrificial lamb unto God on the cross, he died and he rose again. The resurrection of Christ is the very evidence that Jesus conquered Sin, Satan and Death. His resurrection is the very testimony to the fact that He is still working both in heaven and on earth till this very moment.

Having risen from the dead, Jesus said, *"All power is given unto me in heaven and on earth...."* Think about the implication of this profound statement- If all the power in heaven and on earth has been given to Jesus, it therefore means that the devil has got no more power left after Jesus' resurrection.
 *"...In this way, he disarmed the spiritual rulers and authorities. He shamed them publicly by his victory over them on the cross." (Colossians 2:15).* 

In view of this, the resurrection of Jesus Christ has bestowed upon you Christ's authority and power over the devil, his cohorts and all their evil works. 

Hence, the celebration of Easter is always a sorrowful reminder to the devil of his defeat.  The devil has been totally disarmed. You must therefore take to heart the very essence of Easter- It is the celebration of Christ's victory over the devil and his works!

May you continue to walk in the victory that Christ has given unto you even beyond this season in Jesus name.

 *BIBLE READING:* 

Philippians 3:10-11

 *PRAYER FOCUS:* 

1. Father LORD, thank you for giving your Son as a sacrificial lamb for my sin, curse, poverty and diseases on the cross of Calvary.

2. I receive all the blessings that the resurrection of Jesus Christ brought in Jesus name

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...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...
