Rooted in Christ: The Power of Individual Faith

 Rooted in Christ: The Power of Individual Faith =============================================== The Importance of Personal Strength in the Body of Christ --------------------------------------------------------- In the life of faith, it's crucial to understand that our walk with God is not merely a group endeavor. While we are indeed the body of Christ, it is the individual contributions of each member that maintain and strengthen this body. As the speaker eloquently states, "this body you see that is maintained and well kept by what every joint supplies, it's made Strong by what every joint supplies." This means that you and I, as individual believers, have a vital role to play in the overall health and vitality of the body of Christ. We we must each make sure of our own calling and be strong in faith, just like the great men and women of the Bible. Abraham, Moses, Samson, and others are held up as examples of individuals who walked in unwavering faith, contributing

Navigating the Realm of Money as a Child of God

 Navigating the Realm of Money as a Child of God =============================================== The Ministry of Reconciliation ------------------------------ As children of God, we all have a shared ministry of reconciliation. This means that our lives should be a testament to God's grace and mercy, guiding others towards the kingdom of God. The five-fold ministers of the gospel - apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers - have the primary responsibility of ensuring the growth and spiritual maturity of the church. However, the ministry of reconciliation is not limited to these leaders; it is the duty of every child of God. The Cost of the Gospel ---------------------- Fulfilling the gospel mandate requires financial resources. In 1 Corinthians 9:7, the Bible states that a soldier does not go to war at his own expense. Similarly, as soldiers in the kingdom of God, we do not bear the full cost of the work we are called to do. The Lord Himself is committed to providing

God With Us

So many times, as children of God, we tend to lose consciousness of His Presence with us. As a result, we find ourselves overwhelmed and defeated by the circumstances of life. I want to remind you that your faith is what overcomes the world. If you do not apply your faith you may not stand a chance against the storms of life. These storms come to everybody, no exceptions. But whenever the winds beat upon you they must find you founded upon The Rock of Ages. I want to share with you a testimony that will help you remember your roots in Christ. It is a tale like no other, and comes from the depths of my heart, and the contents of this tale are true. Some 3 years ago I was in one of those positions where the circumstances of life caved in on me. As a man of Goind, I could in no wise yield that easy for I am loaded with the knowledge of the principles of the Kingdom of God. I had been battling for an entire year with these circumstances, and at that point I was nearing defeat. So I took on

Spiritual Work-Out

 The Bible tells us to work out our own salvation, with fear and trembling. For it is God who is at work within us both to will and to do of His good pleasure. We live in a day wherein working out is a vital part of our lives, and we thank God for this wonderful aspect of life. Bodily exercise is profitable, no doubt. Actually, the very scriptures tell us so. But exercising your human spirit is much more profitable, having promise of the life that now is, and that which is to come. You can gain more out of life by exercising your human spirit with the written Word of God. The Word of God has got so much to teach us, only we must be teachable and not bring our own preconceived ideas to make the Word match them. We cannot tell God how to run His Kingdom. We must be careful that our definitions of words and concepts do not try to dominate the definitions of God Almighty. As for God, He has His own definitions of certain concepts, and we must be careful not to replace His definitions with

Fix Your Focus

 There are so many things in life that are competing for our attention. Millions of dollars are spent daily by advertisers to get our attention in its undivided state. Unless we learn to prioritize, we will always play roles in somebody else's vision. You will find that time has gone by, you have aged without attending to the things that filled your heart while growing up. As a child of God, you need to make time for fellowship with God. A relationship with God that is not nourished with fellowship will not be enjoyable. The Bible tells us to look unto Jesus, the Author and Maturer of our faith. That is to say that we should intentionally fixate our eyes, hearts, and minds on the Lord. Set your mind on things above.  It is unfortunate that some of God's children are swallowed up in the things that are prevalent on social media. They have no life outside of what is fed to them there! The word of man has taken dominance in their hearts over God's Word. If you fall to the dist

On our Persecutors

 Being a leader is an aspiration of many, most often the responsibility that comes with that leadership is overlooked. There are plenty tears that accompany such leadership. Be that as it may, the corresponding glory is not to be compared to anything, it surpasses them by far. Persecutors are better left to God, not for punishment, but like our Lord Jesus Christ we say "Father, forgive them. They know not what they do." There is a saying that goes "There are many who don't know, and they don't know that they don't know." This saying applies to our persecutors, they have no idea what they are doing. And it shouldn't surprise you that persecution towards you will come from baby Christians and unbelievers. But for the most part, it will be the baby Christians. We face, as it were, lions that want to devour us. Like the apostles of old, they were in peril of dangerous people, of false brethren, and so forth. But only the will of God will happen to us, no
