BECOME AS LITTLE CHILDREN Matthew 18:1-4 , 1 At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” 2 Then Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in the midst of them, 3 and said, “Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Therefore whoever humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. The Lord Jesus saw some traces of strive, pride and competition among his disciples and He gave them a warning that unless they become converted and become like little children they can’t enter the kingdom of heaven. We can see that the body of Christ is plagued by unnecessary competition, too many people seeking the approval of men at the expense of another brother or sister repeating the same mistake of the disciples. No one is the greater or the greatest, God is the greatest and we must accord Him that honour. The devil...

DON'T BE AFRAID  2  Timothy 1:7( KJV) For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. We are leaving in a time where there is no shortage of bad news and disaster. I once said CNN does not have to look for news again. News is everywhere. The recent rise in terrorism,wars, the global economic downturn, the way diseases and plagues are rising and taking many to an early graves is making fear to attack many. Someone defined fear as false evidence appearing real, whenever you are afraid, it's not real evidence but a false one. Fear is also the opposite of faith. Archbishop Idahosa was a man that was so fearless in his days, He was told us a story, that  there was a city that death had told that he was going to visit but never gave them the time, by the time death arrived many had died because of the fear of death. The meaning of this is that many die from fear but I declare that you will not be a victim of f...

The August Blessing This month of August, all things are possible for you! Mark 9:23 King James Bible Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. I declare all things are possible This month because you believe, all things are possible Mark 10:27 New Living Translation Jesus looked at them intently and said, "Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But not with God. Everything is possible with God." Everything that was humanly impossible is possible for you this month Whatever has been medically impossible is possible for you this month Whatever has been legally impossible is possible for you this month   God is with you and for God and nothing shall be impossible for you! Matt. 17:20  ( King James Bible) And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto thi...

Ezekiel 22:30 (KJV), And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none. Isaiah 63:5 (KJV), And I looked, and there was none to help; and I wondered that there was none to uphold: therefore mine own arm brought salvation unto me; and my fury, it upheld me. We cannot overemphasize the importance of prayers in this season. Child of God, the ministry of intercession is under attack by Satan because he knows that if there is a man to pray, there is a God to answer. Satan knows that when intercessors go on their knees, they obstruct his plans and interpose God’s will. To be called an intercessor is to be called into the duty of standing in the gap for others. What does it mean to intercede? It is to stand in the gap It is to mediate It is to intervene It is to come between parties It is to plead for the mercies of God on behalf of someone It i...
