Ephesians 4:32]]>599falsefullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/what-if-god-says-go-joshua-1-9--73513577 DAY 4: WHAT IF GOD SAYS “GO”?
“Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid.”
Joshua 1:9
There are moments in life when we know what we should do, but fear tells us to stay where we are.
We want to move forward, but we are afraid of failing. We want to take the opportunity, but we are afraid it will not work out. We want to obey God, but we are worried about what people will say.
And sometimes, in the middle of all that fear, God says simply:
“Go.”
Joshua must have understood that feeling.
Moses, the great leader of Israel, was dead. Joshua had been chosen to lead the Israelites into the Promised Land, but the responsibility before him was enormous. There were battles ahead, enemies to face, and an entire nation depending on his leadership.
God knew Joshua was afraid, so He told him, “Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest” (Joshua 1:9).
God did not promise Joshua that there would be no challenges. He promised something greater:
“I will be with you.”
Sometimes we think courage means having no fear. It does not. Courage is moving forward even when you are afraid, because you trust the One who is leading you.
Perhaps God is telling you to take a step today.
Maybe you need to apply for that opportunity. Maybe you need to start that work. Maybe you need to have that difficult conversation. Maybe you need to leave something that is damaging your spiritual life. Maybe you need to step forward and serve God in a way you have been avoiding.
Fear may tell you, “You cannot do it.”
But faith says, “God is with me.”
Peter experienced something similar when he saw Jesus walking on the water. Jesus told him, “Come.” Peter stepped out of the boat. For a moment, he walked on water because his eyes were on Jesus. But when he began to focus on the wind and the waves, fear took over and he began to sink (Matthew 14:28–31).
The waves were real, but so was Jesus.
Your challenges may be real. Your fears may be real. But God is greater than both.
Sometimes we are waiting for God to remove every obstacle before we move. But God may be saying, “Move, and trust Me as you go.”
Faith does not always mean knowing exactly what will happen next. Sometimes faith simply means taking the next step because you know Who is leading you.
There is also a “Go” that every Christian must take seriously. Jesus commanded His disciples, “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations” (Matthew 28:19). The gospel is not something we are meant to keep to ourselves. There are people around us who need to hear about Christ.
Perhaps God is saying, “Go and tell someone.”
And if you have never obeyed the gospel, perhaps God is saying something even more personal:
“Come.”
Come to Christ. Leave your sins behind. Believe the gospel. Repent, confess your faith, and be baptized for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38; Mark 16:16).
Do not let fear keep you from obeying God.
One day, we may discover that the greatest opportunities we missed were not because we lacked ability, but because we allowed fear to keep us from taking the first step.
So, what if God says “Go” today?
Do not wait until you feel completely ready.
Do not wait until every question has been answered.
Do not wait until you know exactly how everything will work out.
If God has made His will clear, take the step.
You may not know what is waiting on the other side of your obedience, but you can know Who is going with you.
God told Joshua, “The LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.”
And that same truth should give us courage today.
Go forward.
Go with faith.
Go with courage.
Go with obedience.
And most importantly, go with God.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/73513577Thu, 06 Aug 2026 01:02:02 +0000PreachifyTHEME: WHAT IF GOD IS TRYING TO TELL YOU SOMETHING?” DAY 4: WHAT IF GOD SAYS “GO”? “Have not I commanded thee?

“Let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us.”
Hebrews 12:1
Sometimes the hardest thing God asks us to do is not to take something up, but to let something go.
We often pray, “Lord, give me more.” Give me more opportunities. More blessings. More success. More happiness. But there are moments when God wants to give us something new, yet we are still holding tightly to something old.
It could be a sinful habit, bitterness, an unhealthy relationship, pride, guilt, fear, or even a past failure. We know it is hurting us, but we have become comfortable carrying it.
Hebrews 12:1 says, “Let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us.”
Notice that the writer mentions both sin and weight. Not everything that weighs us down is necessarily sinful, but it may still be preventing us from becoming what God wants us to be.
Imagine trying to run a race while carrying a heavy bag. You may be able to move, but you cannot run effectively. You may even wonder why your progress is so slow. The problem may not be the road ahead. The problem may be what you are carrying.
Perhaps that is where you are today.
You keep asking God to move you forward, but God may be saying, “Let it go.”
Let go of the bitterness.
Let go of the guilt.
Let go of the pride.
Let go of the sinful habit.
Let go of the relationship that keeps pulling you away from God.
Let go of the past that God has already given you the grace to move beyond.
Sometimes we want God to change our lives without asking Him to change what we are holding onto.
Paul said in Philippians 3:13–14, “Forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark.”
You cannot reach forward effectively while constantly holding onto what is behind you.
Perhaps you have failed before. Perhaps someone hurt you. Perhaps you made decisions you regret. But your past does not have to become your permanent address.
If you have repented, learn from it and move forward.
If someone has hurt you, forgive and move forward.
If there is sin in your life, repent and let it go.
Do not allow yesterday to steal what God wants to do with you today.
But there is one thing we must never let go of: Christ.
Hebrews 12:2 tells us to look “unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith.” When we let go of the things that weigh us down, we must hold more firmly to Christ.
And perhaps God is calling someone today to let go of sin and obey the gospel. Jesus calls us to repentance. Peter preached, “Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out” (Acts 3:19). Christ commanded belief and baptism for salvation (Mark 16:16), and those who accepted the gospel on Pentecost were commanded to repent and be baptized for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38).
Maybe the reason you are struggling to move forward is because you are still holding onto something God is asking you to release.
So ask yourself this morning:
What am I carrying that God is asking me to let go of?
Whatever it is, surrender it to Him.
You cannot change yesterday, but you can decide what you will carry into tomorrow.
Let it go.
Let go of what is pulling you backwards, and hold onto the One who is leading you forward.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/73453922Wed, 05 Aug 2026 01:01:02 +0000PreachifyTHEME: WHAT IF GOD IS TRYING TO TELL YOU SOMETHING?” DAY 3: WHAT IF GOD SAYS “LET IT GO”? “Let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us.” Hebrews 12:1 Sometimes the hardest thing God asks us to do is not to take something...

“Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart.”
Psalm 27:14
Waiting is one of the hardest things to do, especially when you have prayed for something for a long time and nothing seems to change. You prayed, you believed, you hoped, and you waited, but the answer did not come. Perhaps you have asked God for a job, healing, direction, a spouse, a breakthrough, or an opportunity. After praying again and again, you may begin to wonder, “God, have You forgotten me?”
Maybe God has not forgotten you. Maybe His answer is simply, “Wait.”
Psalm 27:14 says, “Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart.” Notice that the Psalmist repeats the word wait. Perhaps he understood how difficult waiting can be. We often want God to change our situation immediately, but sometimes God chooses to change us while we wait.
Abraham waited for the promised son. Joseph endured betrayal and imprisonment before seeing his dreams fulfilled. David was anointed king, but he had to wait before sitting on the throne. The promise was given, but the waiting came in between.
Maybe you are currently living in that “in between.” You know what you have prayed for, but you cannot yet see the answer. Please do not allow the waiting season to make you abandon your faith. Waiting does not mean God is doing nothing.
While you wait, God may be preparing you, strengthening you, protecting you, or preparing something you cannot yet see. Isaiah 40:31 says, “But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength.” So while you wait, keep praying. Keep serving. Keep trusting. Keep doing what is right.
Do not compromise your faith because you are tired of waiting. Do not take the wrong path simply because God's path seems slow. And do not become so focused on what God has not given you that you forget what He has already given you. Sometimes we ask God for tomorrow while He is asking us to be faithful today.
However, there is something we must not wait for. If you have heard the gospel and know that you need to obey Christ, do not wait. The Bible says, “Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation” (2 Corinthians 6:2). Jesus said, “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved” (Mark 16:16), and Peter commanded those who believed to repent and be baptized for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38).
There are things we may need to wait for, but obedience to God should never be postponed.
So, if God is saying “wait” concerning something you have prayed for, trust Him. His delay is not necessarily His denial. But if God is saying “obey,” do not wait.
Perhaps you are tired this morning. Perhaps you have been waiting so long that you are tempted to give up. Hold on. God has not forgotten you. Continue to pray. Continue to serve. Continue to trust.
Wait on the Lord.

DAY 2: WHAT IF GOD SAYS WAIT?
“Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart.”
Psalm 27:14
Waiting is one of the hardest things to do, especially when you have prayed for something for a long time and nothing seems to change. You prayed, you believed, you hoped, and you waited, but the answer did not come. Perhaps you have asked God for a job, healing, direction, a spouse, a breakthrough, or an opportunity. After praying again and again, you may begin to wonder, “God, have You forgotten me?”
Maybe God has not forgotten you. Maybe His answer is simply, “Wait.”
Psalm 27:14 says, “Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart.” Notice that the Psalmist repeats the word wait. Perhaps he understood how difficult waiting can be. We often want God to change our situation immediately, but sometimes God chooses to change us while we wait.
Abraham waited for the promised son. Joseph endured betrayal and imprisonment before seeing his dreams fulfilled. David was anointed king, but he had to wait before sitting on the throne. The promise was given, but the waiting came in between.
Maybe you are currently living in that “in between.” You know what you have prayed for, but you cannot yet see the answer. Please do not allow the waiting season to make you abandon your faith. Waiting does not mean God is doing nothing.
While you wait, God may be preparing you, strengthening you, protecting you, or preparing something you cannot yet see. Isaiah 40:31 says, “But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength.” So while you wait, keep praying. Keep serving. Keep trusting. Keep doing what is right.
Do not compromise your faith because you are tired of waiting. Do not take the wrong path simply because God's path seems slow. And do not become so focused on what God has not given you that you forget what He has already given you. Sometimes we ask God for tomorrow while He is asking us to be faithful today.
However, there is something we must not wait for. If you have heard the gospel and know that you need to obey Christ, do not wait. The Bible says, “Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation” (2 Corinthians 6:2). Jesus said, “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved” (Mark 16:16), and Peter commanded those who believed to repent and be baptized for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38).
There are things we may need to wait for, but obedience to God should never be postponed.
So, if God is saying “wait” concerning something you have prayed for, trust Him. His delay is not necessarily His denial. But if God is saying “obey,” do not wait.
Perhaps you are tired this morning. Perhaps you have been waiting so long that you are tempted to give up. Hold on. God has not forgotten you. Continue to pray. Continue to serve. Continue to trust.

“Speak, Lord; for thy servant heareth.”
1 Samuel 3:1–10
Have you ever wondered what it would be like if God called your name? In 1 Samuel 3, Samuel was sleeping when he heard his name: “Samuel!” He immediately got up and went to Eli, thinking Eli had called him. This happened three times before Eli realised that it was God calling the young Samuel. Eli then instructed him, “Go, lie down: and it shall be, if he call thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, Lord; for thy servant heareth.”
When God called again, Samuel responded, “Speak; for thy servant heareth.”
That simple response gives us a powerful lesson for today. What if God is calling you?
God may not call us audibly as He called Samuel, but He speaks to us through His Word. Hebrews 1:1–2 tells us that God has spoken to us through His Son. The challenge is that we live in a world filled with competing voices. Friends speak. Culture speaks. Social media speaks. Our desires speak. Sometimes, our own opinions speak louder than God's Word.
The question is therefore not simply, “Is God speaking?” The question is, “Am I listening?”
James 1:22 says, “But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only.” We can hear God's Word every Sunday, read the Bible regularly, and still fail to obey what we have heard. Samuel did not merely hear God. He responded.
Maybe God is calling you to change something in your life. Maybe there is a sin you have been excusing, an attitude that needs correction, or a habit you know you must abandon. Acts 3:19 says, “Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out.”
Maybe God is calling you to forgive someone, serve someone, encourage someone, or take your faith more seriously. You may think, “Someone else can do it.” But what if God is calling you?
Samuel was young and inexperienced, yet God had a purpose for him. God does not always require people who feel ready. He looks for people who are willing.
There is also a danger in repeatedly hearing God's Word without responding. We can become so familiar with sermons, Bible classes, and invitations that they no longer move us. We keep saying, “I will do it tomorrow.” But tomorrow is not guaranteed.
Perhaps the most important question today is whether God is calling you to salvation.
Jesus said, “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved” (Mark 16:16). When the people heard the gospel on Pentecost and asked what they should do, Peter answered, “Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins” (Acts 2:38).
The New Testament teaches us to hear the gospel, believe in Christ, repent of our sins, confess our faith, and be baptized into Christ for the forgiveness of sins.
If you have never obeyed the gospel, perhaps this is more than another devotional. Perhaps God is calling you. Do not allow fear, pride, people, or procrastination to keep you from responding.
And if you have obeyed the gospel but have wandered away, perhaps God is calling you back.
So, as you begin this day, ask yourself:
“What has God been telling me that I have been refusing to hear?”
Whatever the answer may be, do not ignore His voice.
Let your prayer today be the prayer of Samuel:
“Speak, Lord; for thy servant heareth.”
And when God speaks, may we have the humility to listen, the courage to obey, and the faith to follow.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/73348180Mon, 03 Aug 2026 01:02:02 +0000PreachifyTHEME: WHAT IF GOD IS TRYING TO TELL YOU SOMETHING?” Topic 1: WHAT IF GOD IS CALLING YOU? “Speak, Lord; for thy servant heareth.” 1 Samuel 3:1–10 Have you ever wondered what it would be like if God called your name?

If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world." — 1 John 2:15–16
The world has never struggled to capture our attention. Every day, it competes for our affection through the things we watch, the conversations we entertain, the ambitions we pursue, and the values we embrace. What begins as a harmless interest can gradually become an unhealthy attachment. Like water dripping steadily on a rock, worldly influences rarely transform a person overnight. Instead, they shape the heart little by little until spiritual sensitivity begins to fade. This is why the apostle John gave such a direct warning: "Love not the world." God is not asking us to hate the people in the world but to reject the sinful system that constantly seeks to replace Him in our hearts.
One of the greatest dangers of worldly contents is that they often appear harmless. A little compromise here, a little indulgence there, and before long, prayer becomes a burden, Bible study becomes occasional, and the desire for holiness slowly disappears. The enemy understands that if he cannot stop believers from attending worship, he can distract them enough to make their faith powerless. Many hearts that were once passionate for Christ have gradually become occupied with fame, wealth, pleasure, social media, entertainment, and the endless pursuit of acceptance. The tragedy is not merely that the world has become more influential, but that many Christians have become less watchful.
Pause for a moment and honestly examine yourself. If someone could replay everything your eyes have seen, your ears have heard, your lips have spoken, and your mind has entertained over the past week, would it reveal a heart that longs for God or one that has quietly settled into the patterns of this world? We are often careful about protecting our homes from intruders, yet we leave the gates of our hearts unguarded. Every song, every movie, every conversation, every social media post, and every desire is depositing something within us. Whether we realize it or not, our daily intake is shaping our eternal outcome. The heart is like fertile soil; whatever is planted repeatedly will eventually produce fruit.
Yet God never leaves His children without hope. He calls us not only to reject worldly influences but also to replace them with heavenly ones. A heart saturated with God's Word has little room for the corruption of the world. The more we spend time in prayer, meditate on Scripture, worship sincerely, and surround ourselves with believers who challenge us to grow, the more our minds are renewed. Victory over worldliness is not achieved by willpower alone but by allowing the Holy Spirit to continually transform our desires until loving Christ becomes greater than loving the things this world offers.
This transformation requires intentional daily choices. We must become more selective about what we allow into our minds, more disciplined in our use of time, and more willing to walk away from anything that weakens our relationship with God. Instead of allowing social media to dictate our values, let Scripture become our standard. Instead of seeking approval from the world, let us seek the approval of God. Instead of feeding our flesh with endless distractions, let us nourish our spirits through prayer, worship, and faithful obedience. Every decision either draws us closer to Christ or gradually pulls us away from Him. There is no neutral ground in the battle for the heart.
The most sobering truth is that eternity is shaped by today's choices. The world promises satisfaction but leaves the soul empty. It offers temporary applause while stealing eternal rewards. One day, everything that seems attractive today will pass away, but those who do the will of God will remain forever. When we finally stand before the Lord, our achievements, possessions, popularity, and worldly pursuits will have no value compared with a life that faithfully honored Him. Therefore, let us continually ask God to search our hearts, remove every worldly affection, and fill us with a greater hunger for His presence. A heart occupied by Christ has no room left for the world. Remember that, "The world does not conquer a believer in one great battle; it wins through countless small compromises. Guard what enters your heart today, because the contents of your heart will one day determine the course of your eternity."]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/72798771Fri, 03 Jul 2026 03:54:25 +0000PreachifyWorldly Contents Bible Text: "Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world.

An elderly man once spent years building the house of his dreams. Every brick was carefully laid, every room was beautifully furnished, and every detail reflected his hard work. Friends admired the magnificent home and praised his achievement. One evening, while sitting on his porch, a little boy innocently asked him, "Sir, when you leave this world, who will live here?"
The old man smiled at first, but the question lingered in his heart. He had invested decades preparing a place he would only occupy for a few years, yet he had spent so little time preparing for the home that would last forever. That simple question changed his life.
Many of us live exactly that way. We chase promotions, degrees, wealth, recognition, and comfort. There is nothing wrong with these blessings, but they become dangerous when they consume all our attention. We carefully plan our careers, save for retirement, and dream about tomorrow, yet we often neglect the one destination every human being is certain to reach, eternity.
The early Christians understood this truth. They lived with the constant awareness that this world was not their permanent home. That mindset gave them the courage to endure suffering, the strength to remain faithful under persecution, and the wisdom to invest in things that would last forever. When our hearts are fixed on heaven, life's disappointments no longer define us, and its successes no longer distract us. We begin to see every opportunity to love, forgive, give, and share the gospel as an investment in eternity rather than merely another moment in time.
Jesus asked a question that still echoes through the ages: "For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?" (Mark 8:36). Every sunrise reminds us that our days on earth are numbered. Every passing year is another step closer to standing before God. The decisions we make today are not just shaping our future on earth, they are shaping our eternal destiny.
Thinking about eternity does not make life gloomy; it makes life meaningful. It changes how we speak to others, how we spend our time, how we forgive, how we serve, and how we worship. When eternity fills our minds, temporary pleasures lose their grip, and eternal treasures become our greatest pursuit.
Today, pause for a moment and ask yourself: If Christ returned today, would I be ready? Let that question influence your priorities, your relationships, and your walk with God. Live each day not merely for what can be seen, but for the kingdom that will never pass away.
"The greatest tragedy is not that life is short, but that many spend a lifetime preparing for everything except eternity."]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/72783933Thu, 02 Jul 2026 03:57:25 +0000PreachifyThinking Eternity Bible Text: "So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom." — Psalm 90:12 An elderly man once spent years building the house of his dreams.

That mindset gave them the courage to endure suffering, the strength to remain faithful under persecution, and the wisdom to invest in things that would last forever. When our hearts are fixed on heaven, life's disappointments no longer define us, and its successes no longer distract us. We begin to see every opportunity to love, forgive, give, and share the gospel as an investment in eternity rather than merely another moment in time.
Jesus asked a question that still echoes through the ages: "For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?" (Mark 8:36). Every sunrise reminds us that our days on earth are numbered. Every passing year is another step closer to standing before God. The decisions we make today are not just shaping our future on earth, they are shaping our eternal destiny.
Thinking about eternity does not make life gloomy; it makes life meaningful. It changes how we speak to others, how we spend our time, how we forgive, how we serve, and how we worship. When eternity fills our minds, temporary pleasures lose their grip, and eternal treasures become our greatest pursuit.
Today, pause for a moment and ask yourself: If Christ returned today, would I be ready? Let that question influence your priorities, your relationships, and your walk with God. Live each day not merely for what can be seen, but for the kingdom that will never pass away.
"The greatest tragedy is not that life is short, but that many spend a lifetime preparing for everything except eternity."]]>663falsefullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/costly-mistakes-galatians-6-7--72765708 Bible Text: "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap." — Galatians 6:7
One wrong decision can change the course of a person's life forever. Many people are not living with the pain of what others did to them, but with the consequences of choices they made themselves. A few minutes of uncontrolled anger can destroy a lifelong relationship. A moment of temptation can rob a person of years of peace. Words spoken in haste can never be taken back, and opportunities ignored today may never return. Every decision we make is like planting a seed. While we may choose the seed, we cannot choose the harvest. This is why God calls His children to live carefully, seeking His wisdom before taking every step.
The Bible is filled with people whose lives were shaped by costly mistakes. Esau traded his birthright for a single meal because he valued temporary satisfaction over lasting blessings (Genesis 25:29–34). When he later realized what he had lost, his tears could not recover the opportunity. His mistake reminds us that impatience often makes us exchange God's best for immediate pleasure.
King David, a man after God's own heart, made the mistake of yielding to lust with Bathsheba and orchestrating the death of her husband, Uriah (2 Samuel 11). Though God forgave David after his sincere repentance, the consequences followed him for years. His family experienced conflict, sorrow, and division. David's story teaches us that while God's mercy is abundant, sin often leaves painful consequences.
Moses also made a costly mistake. Instead of speaking to the rock as God instructed, he struck it in anger before the people (Numbers 20:7–12). Although Moses had faithfully led Israel through the wilderness for many years, this act of disobedience prevented him from entering the Promised Land. It was a painful reminder that partial obedience is still disobedience.
Judas Iscariot made perhaps one of the most tragic mistakes recorded in Scripture. For thirty pieces of silver, he betrayed the very Saviour he had followed for years (Matthew 26:14–16). What seemed like a profitable decision quickly became unbearable regret. Money gained through disobedience could never replace the peace he lost.
Yet, the Bible also shows us the hope found in repentance. The apostle Peter denied Jesus three times during His trial. Unlike Judas, Peter wept bitterly, repented sincerely, and was graciously restored by the Lord. God used him mightily to strengthen the early church. Peter's life reminds us that while mistakes may be costly, they do not have to define our future when we genuinely return to God.
The safest way to avoid costly mistakes is to remain close to God. Pray before making decisions. Search the Scriptures for guidance. Listen to wise counsel. Do not allow emotions, pressure, or temporary desires to control your choices. A decision made with God's wisdom may take longer, but it will never leave you with the regret that accompanies disobedience.
As you go through today, remember that every choice matters. The decisions you make today are quietly shaping the life you will live tomorrow. Choose faith over fear, obedience over convenience, and God's will over personal desires.
"Many regrets begin with the words, 'It was just one decision.' Never underestimate the power of a single choice. One moment of obedience can bless generations, just as one moment of disobedience can leave scars for a lifetime."]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/72765708Wed, 01 Jul 2026 04:00:23 +0000PreachifyCostly Mistakes Bible Text: "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap." — Galatians 6:7 One wrong decision can change the course of a person's life forever.

Imagine walking into a room where two close friends have stopped talking to each other. The atmosphere is heavy. Every word is carefully measured, every glance carries tension, and everyone else feels uncomfortable. Many people would quietly walk away, hoping someone else would fix the problem. But then one person steps in with wisdom, kindness, and humility. Instead of fueling the disagreement, they calm the situation. They listen to both sides, encourage forgiveness, and slowly, the broken relationship begins to heal. That person is a peacemaker.
This is the kind of person Jesus calls every believer to be. The world is full of people who are quick to criticize, retaliate, and spread hurtful words. Social media, workplaces, homes, and even churches are not exempt from conflict. Sadly, it is easier to start a fire than to put one out. Yet, Jesus reminds us that those who make peace carry the very nature of God. They are recognized as His children because they reflect His character.
Being a peacemaker does not mean pretending that problems do not exist or sacrificing truth to avoid disagreement. Rather, it means confronting issues with love instead of anger, choosing forgiveness instead of revenge, and pursuing reconciliation instead of division. God reconciled us to Himself through Christ, and He now calls us to become agents of that same reconciliation wherever we find ourselves.
Before you speak today, ask yourself, "Will these words heal or hurt? Will they bring people closer together or drive them further apart?" Every conversation is an opportunity either to deepen a wound or to begin healing it. Choose to be the person who brings calm into chaos, hope into brokenness, and unity where there is division.
Strategies to Adopt
• Begin each day by asking God to make you an instrument of His peace.
• Think before you speak. Let your words solve problems rather than create them.
• Learn to listen with empathy before responding.
• Forgive quickly and refuse to keep a record of wrongs.
• Be willing to take the first step toward reconciliation, even when it is difficult.
• Pray for those who offend you and seek opportunities to show them kindness.
• Let your actions consistently reflect the love and gentleness of Christ.

"May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit."
Every day, we are surrounded by stories that can make the future seem uncertain. Rising prices, insecurity, unemployment, violence, and the struggle to meet basic needs have left many people discouraged. In Nigeria today, it is easy to feel overwhelmed and ask, "Will things ever get better?"
Yet, as Christians, our joy is not built on the condition of our nation or the stability of the economy. Our joy is rooted in God. The world may be full of uncertainty, but God remains faithful. He has not lost control, and His promises have not changed.
The Bible reminds us that God is the God of hope. This means that even when our surroundings give us reasons to fear, God gives us reasons to rejoice. Joy does not mean pretending that problems do not exist. Instead, it is the quiet confidence that God is with us through every storm and that He will never abandon His children.
When the apostle Paul wrote about hope and joy, he did so in a world filled with suffering and persecution. Even then, believers were encouraged to trust God because their hope rested on something greater than their circumstances.
Today, let us refuse to allow fear, bad news, or uncertainty to steal our joy. Instead, let us fix our eyes on Christ, encourage one another, pray for our nation, and continue doing good. God is still working, even when we cannot see it.

Welcome: we live in a world where people find it hard to believe the truth. History is being edited, as the truth is losing its place in human history. Instead, they embrace the packaged lies so attractive that no one is willing to raise some concerns. Diverse religions have emerged with their leaders claiming to be true. And we see many who follow these acclaimed messiahs.
But in the midst of these falsehood, the important question to answer is do I believe in Jesus?
We have the Bible that tells of Him; the prophecies, the reality, the miracles, the crucifixion, the death, the burial, resurrection, all in fulfillment of the scriptures. Yet, there are billions of people who will trample these evidences under foot, and hold unto disbelief, misbelief, and unbelief.
Even when we did not see Jesus with our eyes, touch Him with our hands, the miracles recorded are enough to believe in the person and existence of Jesus – John 20.31
My dear friends who perhaps, are still finding it difficult to believe in Jesus Christ as LORD and KING, may I present some of the evidences to you:
Jesus is Christ; He went to Galilee, walked on water which no other prophets had done. He died on mount Calvary. The tomb was found empty – 1 Corinthians 15.1-4
Jesus Christ fulfilled the scriptures. He made the blind eyes to see. The deaf ears were open. These testimonies reveal that Jesus Christ is Master over time – Mark 9.24
Jesus Christ brought the dead back to life – Lazarus (John 11.40-43). This is a proof that Jesus Christ is LORD over life.
He is now in heaven and He is coming again – 1 Thessalonians 4.13-15; John 14.1-3; Matthew 13.24-30
If your heart is hardened, allow these simple but real truth to bring you to everlasting freedom and joy with Christ. Do not stay too long in your doubt. Will you, after all these proof still hold onto your unbelief?
Jesus Christ invites you this morning to be like Apostle Thomas who after he strongly doubted the resurrection of his LORD and Christ came and fell down at the feet of Christ saying:
“My LORD and my God!”

Welcome: we live in a world where people find it hard to believe the truth. History is being edited, as the truth is losing its place in human history. Instead, they embrace the packaged lies so attractive that no one is willing to raise some concerns. Diverse religions have emerged with their leaders claiming to be true. And we see many who follow these acclaimed messiahs.
But in the midst of these falsehood, the important question to answer is do I believe in Jesus?
We have the Bible that tells of Him; the prophecies, the reality, the miracles, the crucifixion, the death, the burial, resurrection, all in fulfillment of the scriptures. Yet, there are billions of people who will trample these evidences under foot, and hold unto disbelief, misbelief, and unbelief.
Even when we did not see Jesus with our eyes, touch Him with our hands, the miracles recorded are enough to believe in the person and existence of Jesus – John 20.31
My dear friends who perhaps, are still finding it difficult to believe in Jesus Christ as LORD and KING, may I present some of the evidences to you:
Jesus is Christ; He went to Galilee, walked on water which no other prophets had done. He died on mount Calvary. The tomb was found empty – 1 Corinthians 15.1-4
Jesus Christ fulfilled the scriptures. He made the blind eyes to see. The deaf ears were open. These testimonies reveal that Jesus Christ is Master over time – Mark 9.24
Jesus Christ brought the dead back to life – Lazarus (John 11.40-43). This is a proof that Jesus Christ is LORD over life.
He is now in heaven and He is coming again – 1 Thessalonians 4.13-15; John 14.1-3; Matthew 13.24-30
If your heart is hardened, allow these simple but real truth to bring you to everlasting freedom and joy with Christ. Do not stay too long in your doubt. Will you, after all these proof still hold onto your unbelief?
Jesus Christ invites you this morning to be like Apostle Thomas who after he strongly doubted the resurrection of his LORD and Christ came and fell down at the feet of Christ saying:
“My LORD and my God!”
Do not keep Him waiting for too long, my friend.]]>726falsefullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/episode-754-preachify-daily-devotion--71884701 1 Thessalonians 4.13-18]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/71884701Wed, 06 May 2026 05:12:17 +0000PreachifyWILL I MEET YOU IN THE MORNING? 1 Thessalonians 4.13-18 1 Thessalonians 4.13-18]]>704falsefullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/this-is-the-preachify-daily-devotionals-to-god-be-the-glory--71870442 Habakkuk 2:2–3

Life often places us in seasons where answers are delayed, expectations seem suspended, and the future feels uncertain. It is in such moments that the word of the Lord to Habakkuk becomes deeply relevant: write the vision, make it plain, for it is yet for an appointed time. This is not a denial of fulfillment, but a divine assurance that God’s promises are governed by His perfect timing. Waiting is not wasted time in the hands of God; it is a sacred process where faith is refined and character is built. When God says wait, He is not ignoring you. He is preparing you, aligning circumstances, and working behind the scenes for a greater manifestation.

Why then should we wait? We wait because God’s timing is never late and never mistaken. The vision is certain, even if it tarries. What feels like delay is often divine arrangement. Waiting teaches dependence, strips away self-reliance, and anchors us in trust. It shifts our focus from what we want now to what God knows is best. While waiting, we are not idle. We are called to pray like Daniel, maintaining a consistent and disciplined communion with God even when answers seem delayed. We are to trust like Job, holding onto God in seasons of loss and confusion without abandoning faith. We must be faithful like Abraham, continuing to walk with God even when the promise seems far off. And we must believe like Esther, embracing courage and confidence that God will come through at the right moment.

However, there are dangers to avoid in the waiting season. Do not change your vision because of pressure. Do not modify your vision to suit circumstances. And do not abandon your vision because of delay. The temptation to adjust what God has said will always come when the wait feels long, but altering the vision leads to missing the purpose. God’s instruction to write it plainly was to ensure clarity and consistency, not confusion. Hold onto what God has revealed, even when nothing around you seems to support it. The delay is not denial. The waiting is not punishment. It is preparation. So stand firm, remain steadfast, and keep your eyes on the promise. At the appointed time, it will speak, it will not lie, and it will surely come.

In a world often shaken by uncertainty and chaos, the account of Noah offers a powerful reminder that God’s intentions for His people are always rooted in preservation and purpose. When God called Noah into the ark, it was not merely an escape from destruction, but a divine plan for continuity and hope. The ark itself had no rudder, no human system of navigation, and no visible means of direction. Yet it floated safely through the storm because God Himself was in control. This introduces a profound truth for every believer: even when life feels directionless, God’s hand is steady upon the course of those who trust Him.

The context of Genesis 7 reveals a world filled with corruption and impending judgment, yet in the midst of it all, Noah found grace in the sight of the Lord. God gave specific instructions, and Noah obeyed, entering the ark with his household. Once inside, the control shifted entirely to God. The rains came, the floods rose, and the earth was covered, but the ark was not abandoned. God steered it through waters of chaos until it rested in safety. In the same way, there are seasons in our lives when we are shut in with God, unable to control outcomes, surrounded by storms we did not create. It is in those moments that faith must rise, reminding us that God’s intentions are not to destroy us, but to carry us through.

The lesson is clear and deeply comforting: we are not called to control our destinies, but to trust the One who holds them. When life feels overwhelming and uncertain, we must remember that the absence of control does not mean the absence of God. Just as the ark had no rudder yet never lost its way, so our lives, surrendered to God, will not drift into destruction. God’s intentions for you are good, even when His methods are beyond your understanding. Therefore, hold on in faith, walk in obedience, and rest in His sovereignty. He who began a good work will see it through to completion, and no storm can overturn what God has purposed. Amen.

The world says gather more, achieve more, become more. But Christ says life is deeper than that. A good life is rooted in a right relationship with God, expressed through righteousness, contentment, and love.
Consider the story of a farmer who worked tirelessly year after year. His land produced abundantly, and soon he had more grain than he could store. One day, he sat down and said to himself, “I will pull down my barns and build bigger ones. Then I will relax, eat, drink, and enjoy life.” That night, however, he died. All his plans, all his wealth, all his confidence vanished in a moment. Jesus concluded that story by saying that such a man is not rich toward God.
Now imagine another man in the same village. He had far less, but he feared God, helped his neighbors, and lived with a quiet trust in the Lord. He did not have barns full of grain, but he had a heart full of peace. When his time came, he left this world with the approval of God. Between these two men, only one truly lived a good life.
The good life, therefore, is a life of godliness and contentment. As 1 Timothy 6:6 says, “Godliness with contentment is great gain.” It is a life that seeks first the kingdom of God, trusting Him for daily needs. It is a life that values character above possessions, obedience above applause, and eternity above temporary pleasure.
This does not mean that material things are evil, but they must never become the foundation of our lives. A good life is built on Christ. It is seen in a heart that loves God, hands that serve others, and a life that reflects truth and righteousness.

“And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.”
There is a common misunderstanding among believers that to be blameless means to be perfect, to never make mistakes, never fall, never struggle. But Scripture presents a different picture. To be blameless is not to live without fault, but to live with integrity, sincerity, and consistency before God.
Consider the story of Zacharias and Elizabeth. The Bible describes them as righteous and blameless, yet we later see Zacharias struggle with doubt when the angel announced the birth of John. This tells us something important: blameless people are not flawless people. They are people whose lives are aligned with God, even when they are not without weakness.
Imagine a white garment worn daily. Over time, it may gather dust or stains, but a careful owner does not ignore the dirt. He washes it, maintains it, and keeps it presentable. That garment may not be brand new every day, but it remains clean and well-kept. That is what it means to be blameless before God.
A blameless life is one that:
• Walks in obedience, not occasionally but consistently
• Responds to sin with repentance, not excuses
• Seeks to please God, not impress people
It is a life where no one can point to a pattern of wrongdoing and say, “This person lives in compromise.” Instead, even when faults appear, they are quickly corrected.
In a world where compromise is common and standards are lowering, God still calls His people to live above reproach. Not perfect, but genuine. Not flawless, but faithful.
The challenge for us today is simple but searching:
Are we living lives that are blameless before God, or are we comfortable with hidden compromises?
Blamelessness is not about never falling. It is about never settling in sin. It is about a heart that continually returns to God, a life that strives daily to walk in His ways.
May our lives, like Zacharias and Elizabeth, be marked by a quiet but powerful testimony:

oghenevwedeubiuku@gmail.com

Beloved, there is a quiet question that echoes in the hearts of many today: “Does God really care about me?” Not in theory… not in doctrine… but in the reality of daily struggles, silent tears, and unseen battles. And into that question, our Lord speaks with tender authority in Luke 12.7:

“But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.”


You see, Jesus uses the sparrow to teach us something profound. Sparrows were among the cheapest birds sold in the market; almost worthless in human estimation. Yet not one of them falls to the ground without God’s awareness. If God pays attention to something so seemingly insignificant, how much more are you my friend that He created in His own image?

Sometimes life has a way of making us feel forgotten. Our prayers seem unanswered. And the weight/pressure of responsibility grows heavier. And then, anxiety creeps in like a thief in the night. But here is a consolation: your situation has never escaped God’s notice. Because your pain is not proof of His absence. He is still working things out for you so, be of good cheer.

I need you to think about Hagar in the wilderness; she was alone, frustrated, and broken. Yet the Bible recorded her expression of hope restored when she exclaimed “El-Roi!” THE GOD WHO SEES. Also think about David who marveled at the height of The Father’s care when he said; “What is man, that thou art mindful of him?” These passages of the Bible should leave us with no better comfort knowing that God is mindful of us.

Despite all of these, many of us still find ourselves grappling with the reality of God’s promises concerning our lives. We perhaps, think that these promises are just too big for God to fulfill in our lives. In essence, we are not worthy of them. But Luke 12.7 corrects that thinking as he reveals a God who is sovereign and sensitive about our well-being.

Why then should you be anxious about your life?
Did He take care of you in January? What about February, March? In April, why do you think He has abandoned you? If God can feed, shelter, and care for the sparrows, how much more you who is more than valuable to Him?

Dear friends, you cannot trust in God and still be worried concerning the things you cannot help yourself with.

Beloved, there is a quiet question that echoes in the hearts of many today: “Does God really care about me?” Not in theory… not in doctrine… but in the reality of daily struggles, silent tears, and unseen battles. And into that question, our Lord speaks with tender authority in Luke 12.7:

“But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.”


You see, Jesus uses the sparrow to teach us something profound. Sparrows were among the cheapest birds sold in the market; almost worthless in human estimation. Yet not one of them falls to the ground without God’s awareness. If God pays attention to something so seemingly insignificant, how much more are you my friend that He created in His own image?

Sometimes life has a way of making us feel forgotten. Our prayers seem unanswered. And the weight/pressure of responsibility grows heavier. And then, anxiety creeps in like a thief in the night. But here is a consolation: your situation has never escaped God’s notice. Because your pain is not proof of His absence. He is still working things out for you so, be of good cheer.

I need you to think about Hagar in the wilderness; she was alone, frustrated, and broken. Yet the Bible recorded her expression of hope restored when she exclaimed “El-Roi!” THE GOD WHO SEES. Also think about David who marveled at the height of The Father’s care when he said; “What is man, that thou art mindful of him?” These passages of the Bible should leave us with no better comfort knowing that God is mindful of us.

Despite all of these, many of us still find ourselves grappling with the reality of God’s promises concerning our lives. We perhaps, think that these promises are just too big for God to fulfill in our lives. In essence, we are not worthy of them. But Luke 12.7 corrects that thinking as he reveals a God who is sovereign and sensitive about our well-being.

Why then should you be anxious about your life?
Did He take care of you in January? What about February, March? In April, why do you think He has abandoned you? If God can feed, shelter, and care for the sparrows, how much more you who is more than valuable to Him?

Dear friends, you cannot trust in God and still be worried concerning the things you cannot help yourself with. Why not release your anxieties to Him and rest on His breast (Matthew 11.28-30) and as the Bible says in 1 Peter 5.7, “Casting all your care upon Him; for He cares for you”. I need you to know that this is more than a promise, it is a command.

Let me close with this: If God knows the number of hairs on your head, then there is nothing about your life that is beyond His concern. Nothing is too broken, too small, or too complicated for Him. As the song says, “Are we weak and heavy laden, cumbered with a load of care? Precious Savior still our refuge, take it to the LORD in prayer”.

“So, I sought for a man among them who would make a wall, and stand in the gap before Me on behalf of the land, that I should not destroy it; but I found no one”. Ezekiel 22.30

WELCOME: We live in a society today where immorality is applauded and morality disdained. It is no longer surprising that our days can now be likened to the sinful days of Sodom and Gomorrah. The wickedness has risen above the heavens.
Historical background of the text: during the days of the prophet Ezekiel, God’s judgment was against the nation because the corruption cut across every facet of their lives; from the priest to the prophets who tell lies, the leaders who are corrupt and hands stained with blood, the people were completely immoral beyond recognition.
So God's next action was to bring this nation to ruin, but He needed to see if someone would stand in the gap to intercede for the people, but He found none at that time.
Definition: for there to be a gap, it means there is something lacking. There is a breach, or crack, or loophole. Standing in the gap means stepping into a task no one would want to take up. It could also mean interceding. Like taking the position of an intercessor or a watchman.
Our days are not different from that of Ezekiel. We see religious corruption, political dishonesty, and moral decline in our society. God searches for someone to breach the gap shows God’s interest in saving the soul of man (2 Peter 3.9).
How are gaps created?
1. By broken trust.
2. By unfaithfulness (23).
3. By the hardening of the heart (Deuteronomy 30.19; Joshua 24.15). Hardening of hearts are self-inflicted and accountable.
4. Disobedience (1 Samuel 15.1-29; Isaiah 48.12-13).
How can we breach these gaps?
1. By prayers (James 5.14-18).
2. By intercession (1 Timothy 2.1-4).
3. By warning humanity of God’s impending wrath against all unrighteousness (Isaiah 21.6-8; Ezekiel 3.17; 33.7; Acts 20.31; 1 Thessalonians 5.14).
4. By sound teaching and correction in love (1 Timothy 1.10; 2 Timothy 3.15; Titus 1.9; Ephesians 4.15).
Who are we to stand in the gap for?
1. The weak brethren – Galatians 6.1; 1 Thessalonians 5.14
2. The married, unmarried, and divorced
3. Our children, youth, and elderly ones. Even our unsaved friends.
4. Religious and political leaders
Why do we need to stand in the gap?
Because God desires all men to be saved, not willing that any should perish – 1 Timothy 2.4; Titus 2.11-12; 2 Peter 3.9
Because God desires all men to live a holy life – 1 Peter 1.16
Because God desires all men to live in peace – 1 Timothy 2.3
Conclusion: while the world is derailing into more chaos of unrighteousness, God has not given up on Man’s salvation. To this end, Christ died that any who believe shall be saved (John 19.37; Mark 16.15-16). God is still searching for an intercessor like Ezekiel, will you rise up this moment and say like Isaiah:
“Also, I heard the voice of the LORD, saying, whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then I said, Here am I; send me”. Isaiah 6.8
May the LORD help us to be ready for His use at all times in Christ name, amen.

Matthew 10.16

Dear friends, one of the most sensitive, yet neglected conversations in our generation is the position of the Christian when it comes to self-defense.

For a long time, this subject has been avoided, from the pulpit to the pew. And because of that silence, many believers have been left confused, vulnerable, and in some cases, unprepared for the harsh realities of life.

In many parts of our world today, including our very own environment, we hear of killings, abductions, destruction of properties, and lives being cut short without warning. These are not distant stories, they are real, present, and painful.

And so the question arises:

What does Christ expect of us in moments like this?

In Matthew 10.16, Jesus said: “Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.”

That statement alone captures the tension of the Christian life:

* We are sheep - gentle, harmless, not violent.
* Yet we are sent among wolves - dangerous, hostile, unpredictable.

So how do we live in that tension?

Let us begin by understanding what self-defense means.

Self-defense is the justified use of reasonable force to protect oneself from imminent harm or unlawful attack. It is not revenge. It is not aggression. It is a response; measured, necessary, and often urgent.

Even in Scripture, we see that God’s people were not always passive in the face of danger.

In Exodus 22.2-3, provision was made for defending one’s home.
In Nehemiah 4.17, the builders worked with one hand and held weapons with the other.
David, in 1 Samuel 17, did not fold his hands before Goliath, he acted, trusting God while using what was in his hand.

So clearly, the Bible does not promote foolish exposure to danger.

But we must be careful here. Because while Scripture acknowledges the reality of defense, it also places a strong emphasis on restraint, wisdom, and the condition of the heart.

Jesus did tell His disciples in Luke 22.36 to acquire a sword. But when that same sword was used in haste during His arrest, He said:

“Put your sword back in its place… for all who take the sword will perish by the sword.” (Matthew 26:52)

That tells us something important: “The presence of a means of defense is not a license for reckless action.”

Now, as Christians, we must hold two truths together.

First, we are called to be wise. Not careless. Not naive. Not ignorant of the dangers around us.

Second, we are called to be harmless. Not driven by hatred. Not quick to destroy. Not eager for violence.

This balance is where maturity lies.

The Apostle Paul, in 1 Timothy 5:8, speaks about providing for one’s household. And truly, provision is not only about food, clothing, and shelter but also about safety and protection.

A man who watches harm come upon his family without any sense of responsibility has misunderstood stewardship. At the same time, our confidence is never in weapons, strength, or strategy but in God.

As the Scripture says:
“For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God…” (2 Corinthians 10:4)

And again:
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood…” (Ephesians 6:12)

So even when we speak of defense, we must never forget: Our greatest battle is spiritual.

So what then should a Christian do in the face of danger?

First, be vigilant.
Awareness can prevent many tragedies.

Second, pursue peace where possible.
Words, wisdom, and calmness can de-escalate situations.

Third, make use of lawful means.
Report threats. Seek help. Do not isolate yourself in crisis.

And where life is directly threatened, there may be moments that require immediate and proportionate action but even then, guided by wisdom, not rage.

Beloved, this is not a call to violence.
This is a call to responsibility.
A call to wisdom.
A call to live with both faith and understanding. Because it is possible to defend your life and still preserve your soul.

As we reflect on the realities around us today, especially in places where lives have been lost and communities shaken, we must not respond with fear alone.

We must respond with clarity. Faith. Wisdom.

May God grant us discernment to know what to do in every situation.
May He preserve our lives and the lives of our loved ones. And may we never lose the spirit of Christ even in the face of danger. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

There comes a time in life when the things we once depended on begin to give way beneath us. What once felt stable suddenly becomes uncertain. Friends may disappoint, carefully laid plans may collapse, and doors we expected to open may remain shut. At such moments, it can feel as though the ground itself is shifting, leaving us unsettled and vulnerable. The painful truth is that the world, with all its promises, is not designed to carry the full weight of our trust.
Yet, in the midst of this instability, the word of God gives us a steady and reassuring reminder: “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” This is not just a comforting phrase; it is a declaration of God’s nature. He is not merely a helper from a distance, but one who is present, involved, and reliable even in our darkest moments. When everything else seems to fail, God remains.
One of the greatest struggles we face is misplaced confidence. It is easy to anchor our hopes in things we can see and control—our careers, relationships, finances, and even our own abilities. But life has a way of revealing the limits of these things. When they fail, we often feel lost, not because there is no hope, but because our hope was placed in the wrong foundation. God, in His wisdom, sometimes allows these failures to redirect our hearts back to Him—the only One who is unchanging.
Throughout Scripture, we see examples of individuals who faced deep disappointment and hardship. Yet, they found strength not in their circumstances but in their relationship with God. Their situations did not always change immediately, but their perspective did. They learned that God’s presence was enough to sustain them, even when the world around them was falling apart.
When the world fails you, it is not the end of your story, it is an opportunity to rediscover where true security lies. Instead of allowing disappointment to harden your heart, let it draw you closer to God. Spend time in His word, speak to Him in prayer, and remind yourself of His promises. God’s faithfulness is not affected by the instability of the world. What fails around you does not determine what stands within you when your life is rooted in Him.
What Should You Do When the World Fails You?
In moments like this, there are clear and practical steps that can steady your heart:
First, turn to God in sincere prayer. Do not hold back your fears, disappointments, or confusion. Pour them out honestly before Him. God is not moved by perfect words, but by a sincere heart seeking Him.
Second, anchor yourself in the word of God. When emotions are unstable, the word of God remains steady. Reading and meditating on Scripture will help realign your thoughts and remind you of truths that circumstances may try to hide.
Third, examine where your trust has been placed. Difficult times often reveal misplaced priorities. Use such moments to shift your dependence away from the world and fully onto God.
Fourth, remain faithful in obedience. It is easy to drift away when discouraged, but this is the time to hold even more firmly to God—continuing in worship, service, and righteous living.
Finally, stay connected to the body of Christ. God did not design us to walk alone. Fellowship with other believers provides encouragement, correction, and strength during difficult seasons.
These steps do not remove the situation instantly, but they position you where God can sustain and guide you through it.
There is a peace that comes from knowing that no matter what happens, God is still in control. This peace does not mean the absence of trouble, but the assurance that trouble will not overcome you. When God is your refuge, you are not defined by your losses, but by His sustaining grace.
Call to Salvation
If you have not yet obeyed the gospel, it is important to understand that a life built outside of Christ will always remain uncertain. The world may offer temporary satisfaction, but it cannot provide lasting security. That is found only in Christ.
God, in His love, has made a way for you to come into that security. You must hear the word of God (Romans 10:17) and believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God (John 8:24). This belief must lead you to repentance—a genuine turning away from sin (Luke 13:3). You are then to confess your faith in Christ (Romans 10:9–10) and be baptized for the remission of your sins (Acts 2:38). It is through this obedience that you enter into Christ, where all spiritual blessings are found.
Do not delay. The same world that fails others will fail you too, if you place your trust in it. But in Christ, you will find a foundation that cannot be shaken, a refuge that never fails, and a hope that endures beyond this life. Come to Him today.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/71004808Tue, 31 Mar 2026 04:01:01 +0000PreachifyTitle: Though the World May Fail Me Text: “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” — Psalm 46:1 There comes a time in life when the things we once depended on begin to give way beneath us.

What's the most beautiful place you've ever been?

Maybe it was a quiet cathedral, stained glass filling the room with colors, or a forest alive with bird songs and dancing leaves. Wherever your place is, have you ever wished you could stay there forever-surrounded by so much beauty and safety that your soul can finally breathe?

David prays that way in Psalm 27.4:

"I have asked the Lord for one thing, this is what I desire: to live in the Lord's house all my life, to gaze on the beauty of the Lord, and to contemplate in his temple." (NET)

For ancient Israel, Jerusalem's temple marked the center of their world-the place where Heaven and Earth meet. That idea first appears in Genesis, in the garden of Eden, where God walked with humanity and provided everything necessary-a place with no suffering, no threats, no death.

What's the most beautiful place you've ever been?

Maybe it was a quiet cathedral, stained glass filling the room with colors, or a forest alive with bird songs and dancing leaves. Wherever your place is, have you ever wished you could stay there forever-surrounded by so much beauty and safety that your soul can finally breathe?

David prays that way in Psalm 27.4:

"I have asked the Lord for one thing, this is what I desire: to live in the Lord's house all my life, to gaze on the beauty of the Lord, and to contemplate in his temple." (NET)

For ancient Israel, Jerusalem's temple marked the center of their world-the place where Heaven and Earth meet. That idea first appears in Genesis, in the garden of Eden, where God walked with humanity and provided everything necessary-a place with no suffering, no threats, no death.

There is a saying that being successful does not require hard work only, but more of smart work. However, there is a dimension of blessing that does not require human efforts and wisdom. This blessing is called the commanded blessing.
A critical study of the Bible from the Old Testament through the New Testament reveals the truth in the life of those who trusted and obeyed God.
A perfect example is seen in 1 Kings 17.4-6. The Bible declares:
“And it shall be that thou shalt drink of the brook; and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there. So, he went and did according unto the word of the LORD: for he went and dwelt by the brook Cherith that is before Jordan. And the ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning, and bread and meat in the evening, and he drank of the brook.”
Commanded blessings are divinely fashioned into fulfilling God’s ordained purpose. They are provisions that God Himself has structured to manifest in the life of His people. These blessings are not accidental; they are divinely intentional. They are not seasonal, they are sustained by divine authority.
After Elijah had declared that there will be famine in the land for about three years, God instructed him to go to a place at an appointed time, where He has arranged Elijah’s meal. Elijah was at the right location at the appointed time. So, God fed him twice because He was in charge of the ration.
You may have been struggling year in, year out to access God’s already ordained blessings for you, but you are in the dislocation. When the blessings comes, you are not at the right location at the appointed time. Therefore, accessing commanded blessings require:
Total obedience: In Genesis 12, the LORD appeared to Abraham and asked him to leave his father’s land to a country where He will establish his name. Abraham obeyed, and settled in the appointed place where the commanded blessings of the LORD was made a reality (Genesis 15.18-19; 21.2). This is a clear indication that there are some blessings we cannot access unless, we move out of what gives us pleasure. Commanded blessings are location-sensitive and instruction-dependent. If Abraham and Elijah had chosen a more ‘comfortable’ place, they would have surely, missed out.
Covenant relationship: When the Bible talks about covenant, it simply refers to deeper intimacy. A relationship that helps you to understand the mind and intention, and purpose of God. Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God (1 Corinthians 2.12). Elijah was able to access God’s blessings because of his covenantal relationship with God. We do this today by daily searching and studying of God’s word; to know His thoughts and plans for us – Jeremiah 29.11
By any means you are not in the place that God has appointed for you to be, you are guilty of a dislocation. And one of the things you will miss is the commanded blessings. Commanded blessings are made only for people who are in the appointed place. If you are dislocated, the ravens will never find you, the carrier of God’s commanded blessings will never find you. Remember John 5.1-15. When the angel of the Lord came to stir the water, those who were there at the appointed time were the ones accessing the commanded blessings of healing.
So, what is God telling you to do that you are seeing as uncomfortable?
Where is God asking you to go that you have chosen not to go?
Remember, commanded blessings are for those who trusted and obeyed to be at the right location at the appointed time.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/70765295Thu, 19 Mar 2026 22:04:47 +0000PreachifyACCESSING COMMANDED BLESSINGS 1 KINGS 17.4-6 There is a saying that being successful does not require hard work only, but more of smart work.

In the Old Testament, we see for example, Jacob mourning over the loss of Joseph and refusing to be comforted, David grieving over the anticipated loss of his infant son and the tragic end of his grown sons; Amnon and Absalom in battle, Prophet Eli was engulfed with grieve that lead to his sad end upon the news of his sons’ death on the battle field, and Jeremiah lamenting the death of King Josiah.

Especially moving is David’s grief when he learns that his closest friend, Jonathan, had died in battle.
While we mourn our loved ones periodically, we should leverage on such an opportunity to rather appreciate God than shutting the doors of our broken lives against His unmatched kindness.

But what does the Bible have to say about grief?
Firstly, God want us to find hope in our grief. While there are millions of people who find it difficult to believe in the afterlife, because for them, there is no hope for the future and death is the end of a relationship forever. But for the Christian who knows God, death is not the end of existence; it is the beginning of life eternal. God expects that those who understand His will and purpose for mankind with regards to the afterlife, should find hope amidst their grief.

The hope of meeting Jesus face to face and seeing Him just as He is (Revelation 22.4; 1 John 3.2) and we shall meet with those who have gone on before us (1 Thessalonians 4.13-14; Revelation 21.4).
Secondly, Grief is essential in the Christians’ life because it help us to reflect on how fleeting our days are. James describes it as “a vapor that vanishes away” and the Psalmist equate life to grass. Grief can connect us to the heart of God. Psalm 34.18 says “the LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit”. In our grief, we can as well learn surrender. Not trying to strike God against His will. Job becomes a perfect example when he said:

“Then Job arose, tore his robe, and shaved his head; and he fell to the ground and worshiped. And he said: Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return there. The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD” Job1.21

Conclusion: going through grief is not as easy as it may appear. If Job could asked those identity questions in his storms, and many others challenged the decision then, we too can ask. But, while we are asking, we should be reminded that despite all of Job’s questions, he was able to settle for God’s perfect response.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/70668945Mon, 16 Mar 2026 22:16:44 +0000PreachifyTHE BIBLE AND GRIEF Death and grieving are mentioned often in the Bible.

WELCOME: the saying is true that a casket is just a wooden box not then, your loved one is boxed therein.
Grief is experienced as every day goes by. It is something that humanity can resist. Life is fashioned in a way that while one is happy this moment, the tendency to be thrown into the pull of grief is high.
At some time almost all of us see loved ones die and experience the pain of grief. Billy Graham said. “When death separates us from someone we love, there is a time when we think no one has suffered as we have”.
In her book “Let Me Grieve but Not Forever”, Verdell Davis stated that “storms come in many forms. Some, indeed, come with no warning. Some we see brewing and know it is only a matter of time. The storm could be the death of a loved one, loss of health, home, belongings, finances, and security, all taken away”.
Grief is a rogue wind that comes without a second thought. Grief has gripped people since human existence; when Cain murdered Abel in Genesis 4, not only did Cain realized his crime, but its knowledge grieved him greatly. God shared in this grief thus, the curse upon Cain (Genesis 4.10-15).
WHAT IS GRIEF?
It is an experience of deprivation and anxiety that can show itself in one’s behavior, emotions, thinking, physiology, interpersonal relationships, and spirituality.
CAUSES OF GRIEF
Grief is not limited to the loss of a loved one through death. Any loss can bring grief! This includes:
Divorce
Retirement from a job
Departure of a loving neighborhood
Going to and graduating from college
Loss of youthful appearances
Rejection from the society
Unforeseen calamity etc.
Even though grief can have a variety of causes, most often it is associated with the loss of a loved one. This grieving is not easy. We may try to soften the trauma by trying to beautify the gravesite, with numerous roses around, but we cannot make grieving into something beautiful.
However, when a Christian is faced with the reality of grieve, our comfort comes from the words spoken by Christ to John in Revelation 14.13 and the encouragement found in 1 Thessalonians 4.13-18.
Eventually, everybody dies, but in the meantime most of us will grieve at least periodically. Therefore, in our losses, God expects that we grieve as people who have hope; the hope of eternal life. While grief is devastating, we are to remain calm in every storms life throws at us.
Prayers:
Lord, none of us would choose grief over joy and peace.
We desire to be strong for You, our loved ones, and self.
But it is out of will that we control what you have fixed before time began.
But Lord, no matter how draining we may look due to our losses, help us to always listen to your comforting words in our storms. To feel your love and presence in our darkest time.
Hold us still for we pray through Christ, amen.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/70651151Sun, 15 Mar 2026 22:46:24 +0000PreachifyDEALING WITH GRIEF “Then Job arose, tore his robe, and shaved his head; and he fell to the ground and worshiped.

There was a certain rich man who was clothed in purple and fine linen and fared sumptuously every day. But there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, full of sores, who was laid at his gate, desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table. Moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. So it was that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels to Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died and was buried. And being in torments in Hades, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
________________________________________
Let me tell you about two funerals I witnessed in the same week. The first was elaborate—a sea of black suits, flowers worth thousands, eulogies praising the deceased's business acumen and success. The second was sparse—a handful of faithful believers, simple wooden casket, songs of victory sung through tears. Within 72 hours, both bodies returned to dust. But that's where their stories diverged eternally.
Brothers and sisters, we must confront what most modern Christianity tiptoes around: there is life after this life, and it is terrifyingly permanent.
What Determines Your Destination?
Here's where we must dig deep into what this passage actually teaches. The rich man wasn't condemned for being wealthy. Abraham himself was enormously wealthy. The issue was spiritual poverty masked by material abundance.
Examine the text carefully: the rich man had everything except what mattered. Purple and fine linen—the clothing of royalty and luxury. Feasting "sumptuously every day"—the Greek lamprōs means brilliantly, splendidly, living in conspicuous consumption. But at his gate—pulōn, the very entrance to his estate—lay Lazarus.
The rich man stepped over eternal destiny every single day.
He wasn't ignorant. He knew Lazarus by name (verse 24). He saw him. He simply didn't care. This is the sin that damned him: practical atheism. Living as though this world is all there is. Making decisions based solely on temporal comfort while ignoring eternal consequence.
Lazarus, covered in sores that dogs licked, possessed the one thing that outlasts death: faith in God. His poverty wasn't virtue, but his trust in the Lord transcended his circumstances. The angels—not pallbearers but heavenly escorts—carried him to Abraham's bosom, the place of honor and comfort, what we now understand as Paradise.
The Permanence of Your Choice
Verse 26 devastates every false hope: "Between us and you there is a great gulf fixed, so that those who want to pass from here to you cannot, nor can those from there pass to us."
The perfect passive participle estēriktai means "has been fixed and stands fixed." This is divine, immutable establishment. Death seals your eternal state. Hebrews 9:27 confirms: "It is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment."
I've sat with dying people who suddenly wanted to "get right with God" after decades of rebellion. Thank God many did find genuine repentance. But I've also watched people whose deathbed "conversions" were merely fear-based crisis management—gone the moment they recovered. The rich man's plea in hell was for himself first (verse 24), then for his brothers (verse 27), but never once does he express repentance toward God.
He wanted relief from consequences, not reconciliation with the One he'd ignored his entire life.
The Urgency of Warning Others
The final section reveals something profound about hell: it produces eternal regret but not spiritual transformation. The rich man, now acutely aware of what he'd lost, begs Abraham to send Lazarus to warn his five brothers.
But notice Abraham's response in verse 29: "They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them." They have Scripture. They have God's revealed Word. The rich man protests—"if one goes to them from the dead, they will repent." But Abraham's answer should shake every soul: "If they do not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded though one rise from the dead."
What This Means for You Today
Let me be direct: Where will you be after this life?
If you died tonight—and any of us could—would you wake in comfort or torment? Don't hide behind religious activity. The rich man probably attended synagogue, observed feast days, tithed his mint and cumin. But he didn't know God.
Here's the practical reality: Your daily choices reveal your eternal priority. What you pursue, what you treasure, how you respond to need around you, whether Scripture actually governs your decisions—these are the measures.
Consider your calendar from the past month. Where did you invest your time? Your money? Your emotional energy? Now imagine standing before God and explaining those choices. Does that examination produce peace or panic?
If you've never truly surrendered your life to Jesus Christ—not just acknowledged Him intellectually but actually bowed the knee of your will and trusted Him alone for salvation—today is the day. Right now. The Holy Spirit is speaking to you through God's Word, just as Abraham said. Don't wait for some miraculous sign. Don't assume you have more time.
2 Corinthians 6:2: "Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation."
For the Believer: Live with Eternity in View
And for those of us who know Christ, this passage must ignite urgent compassion. The rich man's brothers were heading for the same fate. He couldn't warn them. But we can warn ours.
Who in your life needs to hear about Jesus? Your coworker who thinks they're fine because they're "a good person"? Your friend drowning in materialism? Your family member who's spiritual but not Christian? The neighbor you pass every day just like the rich man passed Lazarus?
We have what the rich man begged for: the opportunity to speak truth to people while they can still respond. Will we?
This week, I challenge you: Have one eternal conversation. Not about weather or sports or politics—about where someone will spend eternity. Yes, it's uncomfortable. Yes, you risk rejection. But what's their eternal soul worth?

Thank you for being here.
I want to start today by saying something you might need to hear: wherever you are right now, whatever you're carrying, you're not alone.
Maybe you're listening while driving to work, and you're already feeling anxious about the day ahead. Maybe you're at home, and you're struggling with something you haven't told anyone about. Maybe you woke up today feeling empty, wondering if things will ever get better.
I see you. And more importantly, God sees you.
Let me read you something Jesus said. It's from John chapter 8, verse 12:
"I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."
Those words—"I am the light of the world"—they're not just pretty words. They're a promise. They're an invitation meant for you, right now, in whatever darkness you're facing.
Because we all face darkness, don't we? Sometimes it's grief. Sometimes it's fear. Sometimes it's just feeling so tired and alone that you don't know how to keep going. And the world tells us to push through it, to be strong, to figure it out ourselves.
But Jesus says something different. He says, "I am the Light. Follow me."
There's a story in the Bible about a man who was born blind. He'd never seen a single thing his entire life. Can you imagine that? Never seeing a face, never seeing the sky, never seeing light.
When Jesus healed him, some religious people got upset and started asking the man all these complicated questions. And you know what he said? He said, "I don't know about all that. But I know this: I was blind, and now I can see."
That's it. Simple. Real. Honest.
And I think that's what Jesus wants from us too. Not perfect faith. Not all the answers. Just honesty. Just: "I was lost, and You found me. I was in the dark, and You brought light."
Maybe this morning you're thinking, "But I've made too many mistakes. I've messed up too badly. God couldn't possibly love me."
Friend, listen to me. Jesus didn't come for perfect people. He came for broken people. Tired people. People who've failed and fallen and don't know how to get back up. That's who He came for. That's who He loves.
When you know the Light of the world, you know you are seen. Not just the version of yourself you show other people, but the real you. The you that's afraid. The you that feels like giving up sometimes. The you that wonders if you matter.
Jesus sees all of that, and He doesn't turn away. He moves closer. He says, "I know. I see it all. And I love you anyway."
You don't have to clean yourself up first. You don't have to get your life together before you come to Him. You can come exactly as you are, right now, in this moment.
And here's what happens when you do: you start to see differently. Not all at once, maybe. But little by little, the Light shows you the way forward. One step at a time. One day at a time. Sometimes one breath at a time.
And as you walk in that Light, something beautiful happens. You become light for other people. Not because you're perfect, but because you know what it's like to be in the dark. You know what it's like to need help. And that makes you the kind of person who can reach out to someone else who's struggling.
So this morning, I want to ask you: Do you know Him? Do you know Jesus, the Light of the world? Not just know about Him, but really know Him as the one who walks with you, who sees you, who loves you?
Jesus promises that whoever follows Him will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life. Not a life without problems, but a life where you're never alone in them. Not a life where everything makes sense, but a life where you're held even when it doesn't.
The Light is shining for you right now. Right this moment. Jesus is reaching out to you with more love than you can imagine.
All you have to do is reach back.
Go in peace, friend. You are loved. You are seen. And you are not alone.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/69725645Mon, 02 Feb 2026 04:01:07 +0000PreachifyDo You Know the Light of the World?

WELCOME:
Every Christian is called by God through the gospel to live in a way that shows who we truly are in Christ. Christians need to understand that our conduct is a visible epistle that seal the spiritual transformation of the Holy Spirit in our lives (2 Corinthians 3.2-3). Our unbelieving and misbelieving friends watch how we speak in public, how we act in the open, how we respond to every circumstances that arose, and how we live daily. Therefore, we must ensure that our conduct will serve as a mechanism through which the world come to know Christ even more (2 Corinthians 6.3; Hebrews 12.15).
AS CHRISTIANS,
1. OUR CONDUCT SHOULD REFLECT OUR TRUE NATURE OF THE NEW MAN
We are new creatures in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17). This new life must show the world how we behave by putting off the old nature of the flesh (Galatians 5.19-20; Ephesians 4.17-35; Colossians 3.3-9; 1 Thessalonian 4.7). The likeness of Christ as the new man must reflect our true nature; rather than keeping some grudges and malice, we are to make peace so long as it depends on us (Romans 12.18), rather than hate and hypocrisy, we are to love without hypocrisy, genuinely forgiving just as God in Christ has forgiven us (Romans 12.9; Ephesians 4.35), rather than being cruel and violent, we are called to be kindly affectionate to one another (Romans 12.10; 1 John 3.17-19).
2. OUR CONDUCT SHOULD REFLECT CHRIST
Christ is our perfect example (1 Peter 2:21). Our lives must show His character, even when we face opposition or persecution. Our conduct must not reflect ourselves, but Christ's character of endurance in persecution, times of crises, hardship, difficulty, and uncertainties.
Our conduct must also reflect Christ character of truthfulness, integrity, obedience in total humility (Philippians 2.1-8).
Our conduct should also reflect Christ character of compassion (Matthew 9.36), compassion to lend a helping hand to those in need of rescue (James 2.15-17), but above all, compassion for dying souls (2 Timothy 4.2; 2 Peter 3.15; Colossians 3.12; Matthew 9.35-38).
3. OUR CONDUCT SHOULD LEAD OTHERS TO CHRIST
People may not read the Bible, but they read our lives.
Our good works must lead others to glorify God - Matthew 5.14-16
Even unbelievers can be won by pure conduct - 1 Peter 3.1-2
Our blameless life shines in a dark world - Philippians 2.14-16; 1 Peter 2.12
Conduct toward outsiders must be wise and gracious - Colossians 4.5.6
CONCLUSION

WELCOME:
Every Christian is called by God through the gospel to live in a way that shows who we truly are in Christ. Christians need to understand that our conduct is a visible epistle that seal the spiritual transformation of the Holy Spirit in our lives (2 Corinthians 3.2-3). Our unbelieving and misbelieving friends watch how we speak in public, how we act in the open, how we respond to every circumstances that arose, and how we live daily. Therefore, we must ensure that our conduct will serve as a mechanism through which the world come to know Christ even more (2 Corinthians 6.3; Hebrews 12.15).
AS CHRISTIANS,
1. OUR CONDUCT SHOULD REFLECT OUR TRUE NATURE OF THE NEW MAN
We are new creatures in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17). This new life must show the world how we behave by putting off the old nature of the flesh (Galatians 5.19-20; Ephesians 4.17-35; Colossians 3.3-9; 1 Thessalonian 4.7). The likeness of Christ as the new man must reflect our true nature; rather than keeping some grudges and malice, we are to make peace so long as it depends on us (Romans 12.18), rather than hate and hypocrisy, we are to love without hypocrisy, genuinely forgiving just as God in Christ has forgiven us (Romans 12.9; Ephesians 4.35), rather than being cruel and violent, we are called to be kindly affectionate to one another (Romans 12.10; 1 John 3.17-19).
2. OUR CONDUCT SHOULD REFLECT CHRIST
Christ is our perfect example (1 Peter 2:21). Our lives must show His character, even when we face opposition or persecution. Our conduct must not reflect ourselves, but Christ's character of endurance in persecution, times of crises, hardship, difficulty, and uncertainties.
Our conduct must also reflect Christ character of truthfulness, integrity, obedience in total humility (Philippians 2.1-8).
Our conduct should also reflect Christ character of compassion (Matthew 9.36), compassion to lend a helping hand to those in need of rescue (James 2.15-17), but above all, compassion for dying souls (2 Timothy 4.2; 2 Peter 3.15; Colossians 3.12; Matthew 9.35-38).
3. OUR CONDUCT SHOULD LEAD OTHERS TO CHRIST
People may not read the Bible, but they read our lives.
Our good works must lead others to glorify God - Matthew 5.14-16
Even unbelievers can be won by pure conduct - 1 Peter 3.1-2
Our blameless life shines in a dark world - Philippians 2.14-16; 1 Peter 2.12
Conduct toward outsiders must be wise and gracious - Colossians 4.5.6
CONCLUSION
Christ calls us to be examples in conduct. The world is watching, the church is watching, and God is watching. Let us choose to walk in a way that honours God, reflects Christ, and leads others to the truth. May our lives be a clear message that points people to Jesus.]]>875falsefullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/a-gospel-publication-presented-to-you-by-the-preachify-daily-devotionals-god-be-praised-forever-amen--69360740 Scripture: And one called to another and said:” Holy, Holy, Holy is the LORD Almighty; the whole earth is covered with His glory”. Isaiah 6.3

The personality of God as described in the entire Bible and across the history of human existence is such that display grand purity. God is holy and His holiness is such that it went to the third degree.

This is because God Himself is holiness. That is why in Isaiah 6.3, the Bible says; ‘Holy, holy, holy is the LORD God Almighty’.

The word Holy is from the Hebrew word QADOSH which means sacred (as use in the moral sense), saint, and God Himself (as in eminence). This means that God in His wholeness is perfect, and pure. God is so different that nothing can be equated to His nature; no gods either.

So my friend, God is inviting you into His holiness this morning. Sometimes, we often believe this is impossible because we are flesh but, the truth is, we can be holy only when:

We do not allow sin to reign in our mortal bodies (Romans 6.12).

We are separated from the desires of the world. Therefore, come out from among them and be separate says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean and I will receive you (2 Corinthians 6.17).

We do not present our members as instruments of unrighteousness (Romans 6.13).

We flee from every appearance of evil, and youthful lust (1 Thessalonians 5.22; 2 Timothy 2.22).

We put off the old self of strife, envy, hate, gossip, etc (Ephesians 4.17-24).

We have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness (Ephesians 5.11).

We can choose to go on listing possible ways from the Bible how we can be holy as our God. For He says; ‘be holy for God is holy’ 1 Peter 1.16. Because it is something we can become, that is why it is recorded for us to see.

God is holy and every one that names the name of the LORD must depart from iniquity, striving to be holy every day and be useful as a vessel unto honor.

Dear friends, our holiness may not get to the third degree as God’s perfect holiness is. However, every effort made to be holy each day is counted worthy by God.

So, what are those secret sins that you think will prevent you from becoming holy? Why not cast them out, and strive to be like Him who is Holy in every thoughts and intents, and every ways.

Remember, without holiness, no man can see God (Hebrews 12.14).]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/69360740Thu, 08 Jan 2026 22:03:53 +0000PreachifySermon: God Is Holy!

Most of the hymns we use in our worship and devotionals are intricately intertwined with messages from the Bible. And that is why when we sing them, we must not sing them because of the melody alone but, with understanding and of the spirit of God (1 Corinthians 14.15). The reason for this is because every of the Christians’ songs are aimed towards admonishing, and teaching one another for they are spiritual songs (Colossians 3.16).

So, this morning, we want the scripture to reveal more of Christ’s characters in our songs.

The song “O To Be Like Thee” is found in songs of the church (SOC) 408 and it was written by a fellow named T.O Chisholm in 1897. Unlike other songs with events behind them, this was different in the sense that the writer was just expressing his uttermost gratitude to God for helping him be like Christ.

“O To Be Like The” simply means to be like Christ! And the Holy Spirit says through Paul that Christians should strive to be just like Christ by imitating God. Thus, He says; “Let this mind be in you which is also in Christ Jesus!” Philippians 2.5

Therefore, the devotion this morning should help us to restructure our resolution this year to be just like Jesus Christ.
“O To Be Like Thee” we must:

1. Sacrifice like Christ. The first stanza of the song says;
O to be like Thee, blessed redeemer; this is my constant longing and prayer. Gladly I’ll forfeit all of earth’s treasure, Jesus the perfect likeness to wear.
This verse of the song reveals to us that for us to be like Christ, we must sacrifice like Christ. Now, how did Christ sacrifice? Christ sacrificed by coming to earth to die in our stead in order for us to live. John 15.13, Jesus says; ‘Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends’. Christ consider us to be precious thus, the reason for Him to die. John 3.16 reveals God’s ultimate sacrifice for giving us Christ as sacrifice for our sins. “For He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world”. 1 John 2.2. We can go on listing from the Bible Christ’ sacrifice for us. He did not considered His glory, crown, and position as God (Philp. 2.5-10; James 1.18), left all, forfeited all, and gave it all for you and I. The question now is, how are we sacrificing for Christ? Okay. Sacrificing for or like Christ doesn’t mean we need to die for one another. We can sacrifice like Christ by using our talents to expand the kingdom, picking up a ministry in the local congregation, serving and meeting the needs of the destitute through our time, resources and all. Getting out of our way to help our brethren (1 John 3.16; Colossians 4.17; James 1.27). These can be done when we forfeit all of earth’s treasures; the things that easily beset us, the weights of the flesh (James 1.21; Colossians 3.1-7; Hebrews 12.1-2).

2. Behave like Christ. Listen to the second verse of the song;
O to be like Thee, full of compassion! Loving, forgiving, tender, and kind. Helping the helpless, cheering the fainting. Seeking the wandering sinner to find.
We can decide to sermonize on each word in this verse. For us to be like Christ, we must have compassion like Christ. Compassion is a deep feeling of sympathy for someone in trouble. The Bible tell us that when Christ saw the crowd, He had compassion on them because they were afflicted, helpless, and scattered like sheep without a shepherd (Matthew 9.35-36). Christ was moved from within when He saw the helpless state of the people. It reveals two truth; we must not castigate those who are in the state of helplessness and we must be ready to extend a physical hand of fellowship to the helpless (Galatians 6.10; 1 John 3.17-18). And it also reveals the spiritual aspect of reaching out to those who are perishing. In this passage of scripture of Matthew 9.35-36, we see Jesus’ compassion, His love to help the helpless, to cheer the fainting and in verse 37, His desire to rescue the perishing. Can we have this character of Jesus towards one another? Can be compassionate, loving, and forgiving those who have hurt us? Remember, even on the cross, Jesus forgave those who wrongfully accused Him. Think about Stephen in the cradle stage of the church (Acts 7.60). Can we take it upon ourselves to seek the wandering sinner to find? (Romans 1.14-15).
We can also behave like Jesus through our speeches; they must be seasoned with salt and bring grace to those who hears us (Ephesians 4.29; 5.4; Colossians 4.6). We behave like Christ by speaking the truth to one another in love (Ephesians 4.25). There are so many ways we can choose to behave like Christ. Even in our giving, we can also give like Christ. Avoiding trouble like Christ would do (John 8.59).

3. Commit like Christ. The third and last stanza of the song in the original manuscript says;
O to be Thee! Lord I am coming, now to receive the anointing divine. All that I am and have I am bringing, Lord from this moment, all shall be Thine.
Committing like Christ is to give in all that we have; be dedicated to His service. Christ committed all He has, investing them in our salvation. He had no home, no luxury houses, because His mission is greater and He needs to be committed to service of HIM who sent Him (John 4.34, 9.4). We can be committed like Christ in the little things we do for Him this year. We can be committed in the work of the local congregation; in evangelism, visitation, and benevolence. In our attendance to weekly activities, we can be committed as well. Cleaning the church meeting place and attending to the Lord’s Table is a beautiful service we must be committed to. Above all, we should be committed to serving, loving, and honoring God with our lives, finances, and time.

Conclusion: our lives will be transformed when we become imitators of God as dear children. By sacrificing, behaving, and committing like Christ to His service. Therefore, our mantra should be thus, ‘dear Lord, may my life in 2026 and beyond reflect your perfect character of sacrifice, attitude, and commitment’, amen.

Life is filled with many dynamics. Yesterday we are fine, today we are sad, and tomorrow, we may be extremely sorrowful. We see people rejoicing over the blessings of a new born baby, achievement, celebrating milestones, abundance, etc. on the other hand, we find people who are caught up with grief, pain, sickness, lack, and war, diseases, etc. When all of these happens, the New Testament Christian often wonders why all these things happens. Many tend to conclude that God is partial. But then, in all of these human adversities, God is fully aware.
Listen to what God says through His Prophet, Jeremiah:
“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope”.
Even while the children of Israel were in captivity, God still cared for them. He reaffirmed His words to bring them back to their own land (Verse 10).
God understood the sufferings of His people just as in the days of the Israelites in Egypt. Perhaps, the children of Israel had lost hope thinking they have been abandoned by God in slavery but, God reminded them that He was still with them.
Life truly, is filled with many dynamics. It makes one confident today, and hopeless tomorrow.
However, as Christians, we must be rest assure that in all our travesties, God knows about them.
God knows your delay. He says He knows the plans He have for you my friend. And when God is in charge of making the plans, you have no need to worry because He will make everything beautiful in its own time (Ecclesiastes 3.11). So, whether you made your plans to get married by 25 but you are now 30, 40, 45, or 50, God who is the greatest match-maker of all time is preparing someone for you.
God knows your struggles. It may be that your businesses are crumbling, marriage on the brink of divorce, career and reputation about to be destroy, or what have you, and you are planning on giving up, God is saying to you this morning; ‘put yourself together, keep hope alive because it’s not over for I have a better plans for you and I know your problem’. So, do not kill yourself.
God knows your hidden battles. You may have tried everything you could; the therapy session, counselling, depressant, etc. And none is working therefore, the only solution therein is to take your life, because you feel God is forsaken you, He doesn’t want you no more! He knows what you are going through and should your attempts of breaking free is genuine, He knows also and He will set you free.


God knows and cares!

Mephibosheth is one of them. His life speaks to anyone who has ever felt forgotten, wounded or pushed aside by circumstances they didn’t choose. His journey is simple, but the message is powerful: God’s grace reaches even the places we try to hide.
Mephibosheth started life as royalty. He was the grandson of King Saul and the son of Jonathan, who was David’s closest friend. But everything changed in one heartbreaking moment. When news spread that Saul and Jonathan had died in battle, the palace erupted in fear. In the rush to escape, his nurse picked him up and ran, but she slipped and fell. That fall crippled him for life. The little boy who once had a future in the palace soon found himself living in a lonely place called Lo-debar, a name that literally means “no pasture.” It was a dry, forgotten place, and that was exactly how his life felt.
But God had not lost sight of him. In 2 Samuel 9, David suddenly remembered the promise he had made to Jonathan years earlier. He asked, “Is there anyone left of Saul’s family so I can show kindness for Jonathan’s sake?” That single question changed everything. Mephibosheth was brought to David, probably terrified, unsure of what would happen to him. Standing before a king his family once opposed, disabled and uncertain, he must have expected the worst.
Instead, David surprised him. He didn’t rebuke him or chase him away. He spoke gently. He restored his grandfather’s land, gave him servants to work the fields and then did something Mephibosheth could never have imagined: he offered him a seat at the king’s table for the rest of his life. A man who thought he had been forgotten was now eating every day like a royal son.
What makes Mephibosheth’s story so touching is how familiar it feels. Many of us have our own version of Lo-debar, seasons where we feel broken or overlooked, carrying wounds we didn’t cause. We know what it is like to limp emotionally or spiritually. Yet this story reminds us that God sees past the parts of ourselves we think disqualify us. His grace reaches into the quiet corners of our lives, lifts us up and gives us a place with Him.
David’s kindness paints a picture of what God does for us in Christ. He finds us where we are. He restores what has been damaged by life. He gives us a new identity and invites us into fellowship with Him. We don’t earn that place at His table. It comes from His love, just as Mephibosheth’s restoration came from David’s loyalty and compassion.
If you’ve never responded to Christ, this is a gentle reminder that His invitation still stands. He calls you to believe in Him, turn away from sin and obey the gospel so you can experience the new life He offers. His arms are open, His table is set, and He is ready to write a new chapter in your story. Just like Mephibosheth, grace can reach you, no matter where you are.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/68889197Fri, 05 Dec 2025 03:01:07 +0000PreachifyLifted from Lo-Debar – 2 Samuel 9 Sometimes the most moving stories in the Bible come from people who stand quietly in the background.

“His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant...”
It is natural to look at life and measure progress by distance. We often think in terms of how far we have gone, how many achievements we have collected, how many years we have served, or how much ground we have covered. But Scripture reminds us that God’s measure is different. He is not impressed by distance traveled, but by the faithfulness and sincerity with which we walk.
When the Bible says “Well done, good and faithful servant,” the emphasis is on well done, not far done. God does not reward the one who ran the longest, but the one who ran faithfully and obediently. It is possible to be busy yet not fruitful, active yet not aligned with the will of God. Jesus made this clear when He said many would claim to have done great things in His name, yet He would say, “I never knew you.” They went far in activity, but not well in relationship.
Throughout Scripture, the people God commended were not always the ones who went the furthest, but the ones who walked rightly. Saul ruled for many years, yet failed in obedience. David, though imperfect, walked with a heart that sought God. The difference was not distance but devotion.
Our journey with God is not a competition. Some advance quietly, unseen by many but fully known by the Father. Others cover great ground publicly. But on the final day, God will not ask, “How far did you go?” He will ask, “How well did you follow Me?” Did you obey? Did you stand for truth? Did you love sincerely? Did you serve with a pure heart?
Even in ministry, the temptation to measure by “far” is strong. We count numbers, positions and achievements. Yet God looks for faithfulness, purity, humility and sound doctrine. A short life lived well for Christ carries more weight in eternity than a long life lived without Him.
This truth brings peace. You do not need to outrun anyone. You only need to walk faithfully with the Lord today. If your steps are aligned with His Word, then you are progressing well, even if it feels slow.
Take a moment to reflect: Are you more focused on how far you seem to be going, or how well you are walking? Bring your heart back to what matters most. God desires obedience more than activity, and holiness more than visibility. His final commendation will never be “How far!” but “Well done.”
If you are reading this and have not yet begun this walk with Christ, the invitation is open. A life that ends with “Well done” begins with submitting to the gospel. God calls all people to come to Him through Jesus Christ. Salvation is not by feelings or personal achievements, but by obeying the simple, clear steps revealed in Scripture.
The Bible teaches that we must hear the gospel, believe in Christ, repent of our sins, confess His name and be baptized for the remission of sins. Through that new birth, God adds you to the church and begins a new journey with you. That is where “walking well” truly begins.
If your conscience is calling you, respond today. Tomorrow is never guaranteed. Christ stands ready to save, forgive and guide you into a life that is not measured by how far you go, but by how well you follow Him.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/68857463Thu, 04 Dec 2025 03:00:07 +0000PreachifyHow Well, Not How Far Matthew 25:21 “His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant...” It is natural to look at life and measure progress by distance.

Revelation chapter 4 vs 4 and 10 gives one of the most striking pictures of worship in the entire Bible. The twenty four elders, clothed in white and seated around the throne, rise from their seats the moment the living creatures give glory to God. They fall before Him, remove their golden crowns and place them at His feet. These crowns represent honour, achievement and heavenly reward, yet in the presence of God they become offerings of worship. The elders do not cling to them. They do not admire them. They simply lay them down.
This picture teaches an essential truth about walking with God. Crowns are not just ornaments; they stand for the things we value most. For some, the crown is personal accomplishment. For others, it may be knowledge, reputation, influence, or even the quiet confidence we have in our own abilities. There are also hidden crowns the heart holds tightly: the pride we defend, the fears we refuse to surrender, the habits we protect or the ambitions we pursue without considering God’s will. These crowns can silently compete with God’s place in our lives.
Beloved, To lay your crown at His feet is not to discard your gifts or pretend that you have nothing to offer. Rather, it is a conscious recognition that everything you have finds its true purpose only when it is surrendered to the One who gave it. The elders did not lose their crowns by laying them down. Their surrender was an act of worship that honoured God and placed Him in His rightful position. In the same way today, our worship becomes deeper and more meaningful when surrender becomes part of it. Worship is not simply a song; it is the posture of a heart that understands God’s greatness and willingly yields to His authority.
Every believer has a crown they must learn to release. Sometimes it is pride that whispers, “I can handle it myself.” Sometimes it is fear that keeps us holding on to control. At other times, it may be a talent or calling that we use for ourselves instead of offering to God. Growth in Christ makes these things clearer. The closer we get to Him, the more we realise that our strengths work better at His feet than in our hands.
Laying your crown brings freedom. It removes the pressure of self reliance and replaces it with trust. It keeps us from competing for glory that belongs to God. It reminds us that life is not about building our own kingdom, but about honouring the One who sits on the throne. Surrender invites God to work through us instead of around us. It shapes our character, strengthens our obedience and deepens our relationship with Him.
If you reflect honestly, you will likely find an area of your life where surrender is still needed. It could be an attitude, a pattern of behaviour, a personal ambition or a part of your heart that you have not fully yielded. God invites you to lay it down, not to diminish you, but to transform you. As the elders laid their crowns before the throne, so must every believer learn to recognise God’s worth and respond with joyful surrender.
For anyone who has not yet obeyed the gospel, the first and greatest act of surrender is to submit to Christ by believing His word, repenting of sin, confessing His name and being baptised for the forgiveness of sins, rising to walk in a new life within His body, the church. That is where genuine surrender begins. And for the Christian, laying your crowns is a daily invitation to keep Christ at the centre, place everything else at His feet and allow His glory to shape your entire life.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/68836415Wed, 03 Dec 2025 03:01:07 +0000PreachifyLay Your Crowns Revelation chapter 4 vs 4 and 10 gives one of the most striking pictures of worship in the entire Bible.

There are seasons when life becomes so heavy that even the strongest heart begins to tremble. You pray, you plan, you work, and still it feels like you’re pushing against a closed door. In moments like that, a painful question rises quietly inside: “Should I give up?”

If you’ve felt this recently, Scripture reminds us that you’re not the first to reach that point. David, a man after God’s heart, once said, “When my heart is overwhelmed, lead me to the rock that is higher than I.” He didn’t pretend to be fine. He brought his tiredness to God. That honesty is a reminder that God isn’t offended by your weakness. He sees it, and He draws near.

Paul also faced seasons that pushed him beyond his limits. In one letter he wrote that he was under so much pressure that he “despaired even of life.” But he discovered something important: his breaking point wasn’t God’s breaking point. When Paul ran out of strength, God didn’t. That is still true today. Your limits don’t intimidate God. If anything, they give Him room to show His power.

Throughout Scripture, God has a habit of arriving late to human clocks but right on time for His plan. Abraham waited years for a promise. Joseph spent a long stretch in prison. Hannah endured mockery before her joy came. The church prayed for Peter while he slept chained between soldiers, yet God sent an angel to walk him out of the prison in the middle of the night. So if your situation feels dark or quiet, don’t assume God has stopped working. He often does His deepest work in silence.

One of the most comforting pictures in the Bible is Elijah under a broom tree in the wilderness, asking God to end his life. He was exhausted and empty. God didn’t scold him. Instead, He fed him, strengthened him, and spoke to him in a gentle whisper. That’s how God handles His children when they’re at the end of themselves. He doesn’t argue with your pain. He meets you in it.

So when the thought “Should I give up?” passes through your heart, remember this: the work God started in you is not yours to abandon. He began it, He sustains it, and He will finish it. Your job is to stay connected to Him even when you feel weak.

If you’re in a season of discouragement, take a few quiet steps:

Pause and breathe. Rest is not quitting.
Talk to God honestly, not with polished words but with the sincerity of someone who needs help.
Go back to what God has said in His word. His promises hold you when nothing else does.
Lean on the brethren. Even Moses needed people to hold his hands up.
Recall the victories God has already given you. They remind you He hasn’t changed.

Galatians 6:9 carries a gentle but firm encouragement: “Do not be weary in well doing, for in due season you shall reap if you faint not.” The harvest is on the way. Weariness is natural, but fainting is what the enemy wants. The very moment you feel like giving up may be the moment just before the breakthrough God has prepared.

So should you give up? No. Not because you’re strong, but because God is faithful. The same God who sustained David, Paul, Elijah, and countless others is the same God holding you today. When the weight feels too much, simply whisper, “Lord, lead me to the rock that is higher than I.” And trust that He will lift you again.

THE CALL: If you’ve reached a point where life feels overwhelming and you’re wondering whether to keep going, the deepest answer is found in Christ. He is the One who gives rest, heals the wounded heart, and offers a new beginning that the world cannot give.

But this hope isn’t automatic. God lovingly calls every person to respond to Him in the way Scripture teaches. The gospel isn’t just comfort in hard times; it is an invitation to enter a relationship that anchors your soul.

The New Testament shows a clear pattern for coming to Christ:

You hear the message of the gospel, because faith comes by hearing the word of God.
You believe that Jesus is the Son of God and the only Savior.
You repent, turning away from a life directed by self and sin to a life directed by God.
You confess Jesus before others, just as the Ethiopian eunuch did.
And you are baptized into Christ for the forgiveness of sins, where God washes you clean and adds you to His church.
Then you continue to walk faithfully, growing daily in grace and knowledge.

This is not a man-made process. It is God’s way of bringing a person from darkness into light, from despair into hope, from “Should I give up?” to “Lord, take my life and lead me.”

So if your heart is tired, if your strength is failing, or if you’ve been searching for meaning, Christ is calling you. He offers a peace that doesn’t collapse under life’s pressure and a hope that will carry you far beyond this world.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/68823157Tue, 02 Dec 2025 03:01:07 +0000Preachify“Should I Give Up?” There are seasons when life becomes so heavy that even the strongest heart begins to tremble.

So should you give up? No. Not because you’re strong, but because God is faithful. The same God who sustained David, Paul, Elijah, and countless others is the same God holding you today. When the weight feels too much, simply whisper, “Lord, lead me to the rock that is higher than I.” And trust that He will lift you again.

THE CALL: If you’ve reached a point where life feels overwhelming and you’re wondering whether to keep going, the deepest answer is found in Christ. He is the One who gives rest, heals the wounded heart, and offers a new beginning that the world cannot give.

But this hope isn’t automatic. God lovingly calls every person to respond to Him in the way Scripture teaches. The gospel isn’t just comfort in hard times; it is an invitation to enter a relationship that anchors your soul.

Yesterday, we were able to look at one of the four scholarly researched types of crises; accidental or Situational Crises which has to do with an event that's less or not expected. We saw this in the life of the religious man - Job who never knew of the debate that went on between God and Satan concerning his life. And we saw that many of us are in the position of Job too when we lost our loved ones, encounter new diseases, experience of rape and violence, social disturbance like war and killings etc. we become worried in the midst of these accidental crisis. But the consolation is that God is aware and He will take control of the situation.
Therefore this morning, we will consider the remaining three types of crises namely:
2. Developmental crises is an event that's mostly expected hence, creating a room for adjustment. Like moving to school, getting married, handling criticism, facing retirement, adjusting to declining health and staying alone when your children have all become adults, the death of one's friends can all be crises that demand new approaches to coping. Consider Abraham and Sarah, who coped with their unknown journey to an unknown destination but with a known God. Handling barrenness for years alongside criticism. We might also wonder how an elderly Zacharias and Elizabeth handled their unique son like John the Baptist, or how Mary and Joseph were able to raise their unusual and brilliant son, Jesus. It appears these were developmental crises leading to a turning point that demanded adjustment and a prolonged period of decision making that also led to increased growth.
3. Existential crises overlap the other two. These are situations that all of us face when we encounter disturbing truths, often about ourselves. For example, thinking about not getting married, not achieving your goals at old age, dealing with the thought of incurable illness, seeing that your life is complex, having no direction, facing the fact that you are now a widow or widower again.
Realizations like these take time and effort to assimilate. They are changes in self perception that can be denied temporarily, but in time they must be faced realistically if life is to go on and be fulfilling.
After a great spiritual victory, Elijah ran into the wilderness with a conclusion that his life is a failure. Jonah had similar thoughts as he debated with God. In the midst of his crises, Job must have wondered why all these crises were happening. Did the disciples also wonder about the uncertainty of their future in the hours following the crucifixion? The beautiful part of all these crises is that God is aware.
4. National or Community Crises extend beyond individuals to involve large groups of people. When a country is attacked by insurgency like we are experiencing in Nigeria currently. It affects everyone through the economy and health and other sectors. People can't go to the farm which has resulted in the hiking of prices of food. Public properties are being destroyed and young girls abducted. People are being killed everyday and it should be of concern to everyone in the Nation or community where this crisis is happening.
We shouldn't feel unbothered when others are being inflicted with pain, because it may get to our doorstep tomorrow. The terrorists are already in Kwara State, who knows if your State will be next.
In all of these, people wonder why? The truth is that crises may be as a result of disobedience against God's law by the leaders and the people like the nation of Israel. It could be the bad decision of the leaders like David. Though the Bible talks about all types of crises, it does not give clear and complete reasons to explain why crises occur. However, we may agree that every event has a divine purpose and ultimately is under God's control. We know that crises can be a learning experience that mold character, teach us about God and His resources, and stimulate sound growth. But the ultimate reasons for specific life crises may never be known, at least while we live on this earth.
It is my earnest prayer that God will help us to trust in Him in our crises time in Jesus' name. Amen!

Topic: Accidental or Situational Crises

Much of the Bible deals with crises. Adam, Eve, Cain, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Joseph, Moses, Samson, Jepthah, Saul, David, Elijah, Daniel, and numerous other people faced crisis that the Old Testament describes in details.
Jesus faced crisis especially at the time of the crucifixion, and also the disciples. Paul, and many other believers as well. Several of the epistles were written to help individuals and congregations meet crises.
Contemporary writers have identified three types of crisis, each of which has both modern and biblical examples. So, let us meticulously identify each one of them.

1. Accidental or Situational Crises: this crisis occurs when there is a sudden threat, disruptive event, or unexpected loss. Examples include the death of a loved one, the outbreak of diseases, the experience of serious violence like killings, rape, and abduction. Social disturbance like war, and depression.
All are situational crises that can affect an individual, and family members.
Think about Job. Within a short period of time, Job lost his family, wealth, health and status. His marriage appears to have been strained and his critics soon learn about Job's anger and inner turmoil. He was confused at the spot about why a caring God would let such crises happen to a good Job.
Yes, you and I may have been in similar situations of the accidental crisis. How did we respond? Did we go about hating God or trusting His word?
Given the current situation in the country, many people are confused about why God will sit on His throne and watch evil befallen His children. The truth is, when crises happen to us, we are expected to trust more in God's word and a call to live a holy life.

It has often been stated that the Chinese word for crisis involves two characters.
One means danger; the other means opportunity.
Crises are filled with danger because they disrupt life and threaten to overwhelm the people who are affected.
We read in the Bible of those who are in this group:
Moses faced the disruptive version of his life when he murdered an Egyptian royal guard - Exodus 2.11-12
The Israelites faced the disruptive version of their lives when a new Pharaoh who knew not Joseph arose - Exodus 1.9-13
What about Elijah? He fled for his life after slaughtering the prophets of Baal (1 Kings 19)
Paul's life and ministry was disrupted when he was arrested and beaten even by his own country men (Acts 21.27-36; 22.22-24)
Given the current situation in the world; the middle east, Africa, Nigeria, Plateau, Benue States and other areas facing the danger side of crises, you will notice that many people have been displaced, churches burnt down, schools destroyed by the insurgency and family relationship disrupted yet, man being wicked, claimed that there's no Christian genocide in Nigeria.
People are being killed, farm properties are being destroyed, people can no longer sleep in the houses they built and some people due to selfish interest proclaim no Christian genocide. Woe to them.
We can also see the danger side of crises even in our homes; when parents are head confused, it disrupts the peace and love of the home. When brothers are at crises, it only fosters disunity. Even in the church of Christ, when leaders are at crises with each other, the growth of the church will be greatly impacted negatively.
But then, when we are faced with all of these, we should not fret, we should understand that these ugly moments are building us in a way that we will develop an extra effort to cope with crises on a larger scale and to use every opportunity provided.
It is my earnest prayer that Christ will help us to anchor our hope on Him even in our darkest days of crises in Jesus' name. Amen.

Trust is a powerful word. It speaks of confidence, reliance, and surrender. In a world where people often depend on logic, experience, or their own strength, Proverbs 3:5–6 calls believers to a higher way of living — to trust God completely. This passage is one of the most quoted and yet one of the most challenging to live by. It invites us to place our full confidence in God, not partially or occasionally, but with all our heart.
To trust God “with all your heart” means to depend on Him wholeheartedly — without reservation or divided loyalty. It is the decision to believe that God’s wisdom surpasses human understanding, and that His plans are always for our good, even when we cannot see the full picture. Human understanding is limited and often influenced by emotion, fear, or pride. But when we lean on God’s wisdom, we lean on something unshakable — His eternal truth, His perfect timing, and His unfailing love.
The verse continues, “and lean not on your own understanding.” This is where many believers struggle. We often rely on what we see, what we feel, or what makes sense to us. But faith does not operate by sight; it operates by trust in the unseen. Leaning on our own understanding is like putting our weight on a weak branch — it may seem firm for a while, but it cannot hold us for long. God, on the other hand, is a solid foundation. When we trust Him even when things don’t make sense, we discover His faithfulness in ways we never imagined.
Solomon goes further to say, “In all your ways acknowledge Him.” This means bringing God into every aspect of our lives — not just in crises or spiritual matters, but in our daily choices, plans, relationships, and work. To acknowledge God is to recognize His authority and to seek His will before making decisions. It is saying, “Lord, not my way, but Yours.” When we invite Him into every area of our lives, we allow Him to guide us, correct us, and lead us to peace.
Finally, the verse assures, “and He shall direct your paths.” This is God’s promise to those who trust Him — He will make the way clear. He will remove confusion, close wrong doors, and open the right ones. This doesn’t mean life will be without challenges, but it does mean that our journey will have divine direction. God’s guidance may not always be dramatic or immediate, but it is always sure. The path He directs may not always be easy, but it always leads to His purpose and our ultimate good.
Trusting God completely is not a one-time decision; it is a daily choice. It means surrendering our will for His, believing that His ways are higher than ours. It is learning to rest in His promises even when the future looks uncertain. Trusting God doesn’t mean we stop thinking; it means we stop worrying and start believing that He knows best.
Lessons and Applications:
Trust requires surrender. You cannot truly trust God and still cling to control. Let go and let Him lead.
God’s wisdom surpasses human logic. When your understanding fails, lean on His Word — it never falters.
Acknowledging God is practical. Pray before making decisions, seek His Word for guidance, and involve Him in your plans.
God’s direction brings peace. When you allow Him to guide you, confusion gives way to clarity, and fear gives way to faith.
In a world that constantly tells us to “believe in ourselves,” the Bible reminds us to believe in God more. Trusting Him completely is not weakness — it is wisdom. It is the recognition that our Creator knows the path better than the creature ever could. When we learn to rest our full weight on God, life becomes less about control and more about confidence in His care.

True trust in God begins with obedience. The ultimate act of trusting Him is surrendering your life to Jesus Christ — not just in words, but in action. Baptism is that step of faith where you acknowledge that your own understanding and strength cannot save you, and you entrust your life fully into God’s hands. As the Scripture says in Mark 16:16, “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved.”
Through baptism, you declare that you are done leaning on yourself and ready to lean completely on Christ — dying to the old life and rising to walk in the newness of life (Romans 6:4). If you have not yet obeyed the gospel in baptism, today is the perfect time to trust God fully. Let go of fear, pride, and hesitation, and let Him direct your path into eternal life. For the wisest decision a person can ever make is to place their whole heart, soul, and future into the hands of the Lord.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/68168947Fri, 17 Oct 2025 04:01:07 +0000PreachifyDay 5: Trusting God Completely Text: Proverbs 3:5–6 — “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.” Trust is a powerful word.

The people we walk with in life have a powerful effect on who we become. Whether we admit it or not, our associations influence our thinking, habits, and direction. Proverbs 13:20 reminds us that wisdom is not developed in isolation — it grows through relationships and the company we keep. To “walk with the wise” means to associate closely with those who fear God, live by His Word, and make decisions guided by divine wisdom. When we spend time with such people, their example, speech, and attitude sharpen our character and shape our walk with God.
The opposite is equally true. The verse warns that “a companion of fools shall be destroyed.” Foolishness, in biblical terms, does not refer to a lack of intelligence but to a lack of reverence for God. A fool rejects correction, disregards truth, and follows personal desires without regard for consequences. When we constantly surround ourselves with such influences, it becomes easier to drift from righteousness and compromise our convictions. Even if we start well, the wrong company can slowly corrupt our values, much like rust eating away at iron over time. The Apostle Paul emphasized the same truth when he said, “Do not be deceived: bad company corrupts good character” (1 Corinthians 15:33).
Walking with the wise also goes beyond friendship — it includes the influences we allow into our hearts and minds. In today’s world, we may not always realize how deeply social media, entertainment, or certain conversations shape our worldview. If our daily diet is filled with ungodly voices, we begin to reflect them, often without noticing. But when we surround ourselves with godly influences — wise mentors, Christian fellowship, and spiritual teachings — our hearts grow stronger in discernment and godly wisdom.
This principle also teaches us the value of mentorship. No one becomes wise by accident; wisdom is often learned through humble observation and consistent fellowship with those who have walked the path of faith before us. When we seek counsel, listen to godly advice, and emulate righteous examples, we position ourselves for growth. The wise are not self-made; they are God-taught and people-shaped.
In essence, Proverbs 13:20 calls us to intentional living. Our associations must be deliberate, not casual. We must choose to walk with those who draw us closer to God rather than those who pull us away from Him. It is not about pride or isolation, but about protecting the heart and nurturing the soul.
Lessons and Applications:
The people we associate with will either build us or break us; choose companions who strengthen your walk with God.
True wisdom grows in an atmosphere of godly influence — seek relationships that inspire spiritual growth.
Avoid environments and conversations that promote ungodliness; what we continually expose ourselves to eventually shapes us.
Seek mentorship and accountability. God often uses other believers to refine our faith and direct our steps.
Ultimately, to “walk with the wise” is to choose alignment with God’s ways through godly company. It is an act of humility, showing that we value growth and recognize our need for spiritual guidance. As we walk alongside those who walk with God, we too will grow in grace, in wisdom, and in favor before both God and man.

If you desire to truly walk with the wise, the first and wisest step is to walk with Christ. Wisdom begins with surrender — turning away from sin and choosing to follow Jesus fully. Baptism is that moment of obedience when one dies to the old life and rises to walk in newness of life (Romans 6:3–4). It is more than a ritual; it is a declaration that you have chosen to walk with the wisest of all — the Son of God. If you have not yet been baptized into Christ, now is the time to make that decision. Let today mark the beginning of your walk with Him, where true wisdom, peace, and eternal hope begin.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/68157081Thu, 16 Oct 2025 16:01:07 +0000PreachifyDay 4: Walking with the Wise Text: Proverbs 13:20 — “He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.” The people we walk with in life have a powerful effect on who we become.

Words are among the most powerful forces ever given to mankind. They have the ability to shape destinies, heal wounds, inspire hope, or destroy relationships. With just a few words, nations have gone to war, families have been restored, and hearts have been broken or mended. Solomon, in his timeless wisdom, declares that “death and life are in the power of the tongue.” This verse reveals a sobering truth — our words are not neutral. They carry within them the power to produce either blessing or harm.
From the very beginning of creation, God demonstrated the power of words. He spoke, and the universe came into existence: “And God said, ‘Let there be light,’ and there was light.” (Genesis 1:3). God’s words carried authority, life, and purpose. Being made in His image, we too possess the ability to use words that create — not worlds, but atmospheres. With our words, we can create peace in our homes, joy in our relationships, and faith in our communities. The same tongue, however, can also unleash destruction, bitterness, and pain. That is why the Bible warns us to be slow to speak and quick to listen (James 1:19).
Our speech reflects the condition of our hearts. Jesus said, “Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.” (Matthew 12:34). If our hearts are full of anger, pride, or envy, our words will reveal it. But if our hearts are filled with God’s love, peace, and humility, our speech will build others up. The mouth simply exposes what already lives within. Therefore, before we can truly control our tongues, we must allow God to cleanse and renew our hearts.
The tongue, though small, is immensely powerful. James compares it to a spark that can set an entire forest ablaze (James 3:5–6). A single careless statement can ruin a reputation or end a friendship. On the other hand, a single kind word can bring comfort to a grieving soul or courage to someone ready to give up. Our daily conversations carry more spiritual weight than we realize. Every word we speak is either planting life or sowing death — and in time, we will eat the fruit of our speech.
Speaking life means using words to uplift rather than tear down. It means choosing kindness over criticism, truth over gossip, encouragement over complaint. It also means speaking faith instead of fear. Many people live defeated lives because they constantly speak negatively about themselves and their situations. They say, “I can’t make it,” “Things will never change,” or “I’m not good enough.” Such words shape their mindset and become self-fulfilling prophecies. Proverbs 6:2 says, “You are snared by the words of your mouth.” The more we declare defeat, the more we walk in it. But when we speak God’s promises — “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13) — we align ourselves with His truth and open the door to His power.
The way we speak to others matters just as much. Proverbs 15:1 teaches that “a soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.” Our words can either calm a storm or make it worse. How many relationships have suffered simply because of words spoken in haste or pride? Learning to control the tongue requires humility and wisdom. Sometimes, silence is the best answer. Proverbs 17:27 reminds us, “He who has knowledge spares his words, and a man of understanding is of a calm spirit.” A wise person knows when to speak and when to stay silent.
To speak life, we must let the Holy Spirit guide our words. Colossians 4:6 says, “Let your speech always be with grace, seasoned with salt.” Grace-filled speech brings healing and light into dark situations. When we speak truth with love, we reflect God’s nature and influence others for good. Our tongues were never meant for cursing, gossip, or deceit — they were designed to bless, encourage, and testify of God’s goodness.
Every day, we face countless opportunities to choose between life and death with our words. The person who constantly complains, criticizes, and curses will eat the bitter fruit of negativity. But the one who speaks faith, gratitude, and love will taste the sweetness of life. The principle is simple: we harvest what we say.
In conclusion, the power of words is not a poetic idea; it is a spiritual reality. Words can destroy what took years to build or heal what was broken beyond repair. Our tongues are small but mighty instruments, capable of changing the atmosphere of our lives. Let us, therefore, use them wisely — to speak truth, to bless others, and to glorify God. If we fill our hearts with His Word, our lips will speak life. And when life flows from our speech, it will flow into every part of our existence.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/68141072Wed, 15 Oct 2025 04:29:07 +0000PreachifyDay 3: The Power of Words Text: Proverbs 18:21 – “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.” Words are among the most powerful forces ever given to mankind.

The heart, in biblical language, is not merely the organ that pumps blood but the very center of a person’s being — the seat of thought, emotion, will, and moral character. It represents who we truly are when no one else is watching. Solomon, in his wisdom, commands: “Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of life.” This verse reminds us that the direction of our lives is determined not primarily by external circumstances but by the internal condition of our hearts.
The heart is like a fountain from which all actions flow. Just as a polluted spring cannot produce pure water, a corrupted heart cannot produce righteous living. Jesus affirmed this truth in Matthew 12:34, saying, “Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.” Everything we say, do, or desire originates from within. That means the quality of our lives — our speech, relationships, decisions, and spiritual growth — depends on how carefully we guard our hearts.
To “keep” the heart implies vigilance and discipline. It is not a passive instruction but an active duty. The Hebrew word translated “keep” carries the idea of guarding something precious against intrusion or corruption. The Christian life requires spiritual watchfulness because the heart is under constant attack. The devil seeks to sow seeds of doubt, fear, pride, and lust, hoping to turn our hearts away from God. Likewise, the world around us continually bombards us with ungodly values that can subtly erode our spiritual integrity. Therefore, Solomon calls us to guard our hearts with all diligence — not occasionally, but continuously.
Guarding the heart involves controlling what enters it. The eyes and ears are the main gateways. What we watch, listen to, and dwell upon shapes our thoughts, and our thoughts, in turn, shape our character. If we feed on worldly entertainment, ungodly conversations, and corrupt influences, our hearts will reflect the same. But if we fill our minds with God’s Word, worship, and prayer, our hearts will remain pure and steadfast. Psalm 119:11 declares, “Your word have I hidden in my heart, that I might not sin against You.” The Word of God acts as both a filter and a fortress, purifying our desires and protecting us from sin’s deception.
Moreover, guarding the heart means being mindful of what flows out of it. Anger, bitterness, jealousy, and pride are signs of a neglected heart. These attitudes must be identified and uprooted early through repentance and humility. Left unchecked, they can poison our relationships and spiritual lives. Proverbs 14:30 warns, “A sound heart is life to the body, but envy is rottenness to the bones.” A guarded heart nurtures peace, joy, and love; an unguarded one breeds confusion and destruction.
To keep the heart pure, one must also learn to surrender it to God daily. Jeremiah 17:9 reminds us that “the heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked.” We cannot trust our own hearts without the guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is only by continually yielding to God that we can discern right from wrong and truth from deceit. Prayer becomes essential in this process, for through prayer, we invite God to search and cleanse our hearts. As David prayed in Psalm 139:23–24, “Search me, O God, and know my heart; try me, and know my thoughts: and see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.”
Practically, guarding your heart means setting boundaries. Choose your company wisely, because as Proverbs 13:20 says, “He who walks with wise men will be wise, but the companion of fools will be destroyed.” Avoid environments that feed sin or weaken your convictions. Be intentional about your influences — what you read, what you watch, who you listen to, and what you meditate on. The heart cannot remain pure if constantly exposed to corruption. Just as a gardener protects tender plants from weeds and pests, so must a believer protect the heart from spiritual contamination.

In the final analysis, every aspect of life flows from within. If the heart is right with God, the life will be upright before men. But if the heart is neglected, sin will find its way out. The world says to “follow your heart,” but Scripture says to “guard your heart.” The difference is profound — one leads to deception; the other leads to life.
Therefore, let every believer take Solomon’s charge seriously. Guard your heart not with fear, but with faith. Protect it not with walls of isolation, but with the truth of God’s Word. Fill it not with worldly desires, but with divine wisdom. Remember that the heart is the wellspring of life; if it is pure, your whole life will flourish under God’s favor.
In conclusion, guarding the heart is not a one-time act but a lifelong discipline. It requires prayer, reflection, and continual dependence on God’s grace. The heart you guard today determines the life you live tomorrow. Let us, therefore, keep our hearts with all diligence, for from them flow the issues of life.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/68124333Tue, 14 Oct 2025 04:00:08 +0000PreachifyDay 2: Guard Your Heart Text: Proverbs 4:23 – “Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of life.” The heart, in biblical language, is not merely the organ that pumps blood but the very center of a person’s being — the seat of... Text: Proverbs 4:23 – “Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of life.”
The heart, in biblical language, is not merely the organ that pumps blood but the very center of a person’s being — the seat of thought, emotion, will, and moral character. It represents who we truly are when no one else is watching. Solomon, in his wisdom, commands: “Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of life.” This verse reminds us that the direction of our lives is determined not primarily by external circumstances but by the internal condition of our hearts.
The heart is like a fountain from which all actions flow. Just as a polluted spring cannot produce pure water, a corrupted heart cannot produce righteous living. Jesus affirmed this truth in Matthew 12:34, saying, “Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.” Everything we say, do, or desire originates from within. That means the quality of our lives — our speech, relationships, decisions, and spiritual growth — depends on how carefully we guard our hearts.
To “keep” the heart implies vigilance and discipline. It is not a passive instruction but an active duty. The Hebrew word translated “keep” carries the idea of guarding something precious against intrusion or corruption. The Christian life requires spiritual watchfulness because the heart is under constant attack. The devil seeks to sow seeds of doubt, fear, pride, and lust, hoping to turn our hearts away from God. Likewise, the world around us continually bombards us with ungodly values that can subtly erode our spiritual integrity. Therefore, Solomon calls us to guard our hearts with all diligence — not occasionally, but continuously.
Guarding the heart involves controlling what enters it. The eyes and ears are the main gateways. What we watch, listen to, and dwell upon shapes our thoughts, and our thoughts, in turn, shape our character. If we feed on worldly entertainment, ungodly conversations, and corrupt influences, our hearts will reflect the same. But if we fill our minds with God’s Word, worship, and prayer, our hearts will remain pure and steadfast. Psalm 119:11 declares, “Your word have I hidden in my heart, that I might not sin against You.” The Word of God acts as both a filter and a fortress, purifying our desires and protecting us from sin’s deception.
Moreover, guarding the heart means being mindful of what flows out of it. Anger, bitterness, jealousy, and pride are signs of a neglected heart. These attitudes must be identified and uprooted early through repentance and humility. Left unchecked, they can poison our relationships and spiritual lives. Proverbs 14:30 warns, “A sound heart is life to the body, but envy is rottenness to the bones.” A guarded heart nurtures peace, joy, and love; an unguarded one breeds confusion and destruction.
To keep the heart pure, one must also learn to surrender it to God daily. Jeremiah 17:9 reminds us that “the heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked.” We cannot trust our own hearts without the guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is only by continually yielding to God that we can discern right from wrong and truth from deceit. Prayer becomes essential in this process, for through prayer, we invite God to search and cleanse our hearts. As David prayed in Psalm 139:23–24, “Search me, O God, and know my heart; try me, and know my thoughts: and see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.”

Wisdom is one of the most sought-after virtues in human life. People go to school, read books, and attend seminars in search of it. Yet, the Bible reveals that the true starting point of wisdom is not in academic achievement or worldly experience, but in the fear of the Lord. Solomon begins the book of Proverbs with this foundation because everything else in life — decisions, relationships, success, and even survival — depends on having a right relationship with God. Without this reverence for God, knowledge becomes shallow, and man’s intelligence turns to pride.
The phrase “fear of the Lord” does not mean being terrified of God, but rather having deep reverence, awe, and submission to His authority. It is the recognition that God is holy, righteous, and sovereign over all things, including our lives. The one who fears God understands that He sees every action, hears every word, and knows every thought. Therefore, such a person lives in constant awareness of God’s presence and seeks to please Him in all things. This fear becomes the foundation of moral integrity, humility, and discernment.
In contrast, the Bible says that “fools despise wisdom and instruction.” A fool in the biblical sense is not an unintelligent person, but one who deliberately rejects God’s guidance and resists correction. Foolishness is rooted in pride — the refusal to be taught or corrected. Such individuals prefer their own opinions to divine truth and end up destroying themselves by their own stubbornness. Solomon contrasts these two attitudes to show that the difference between the wise and the foolish is not intelligence but humility — the willingness to listen, learn, and obey God.
The fear of the Lord therefore shapes not only what we know but how we live. True wisdom is moral, not just mental. It goes beyond intellectual reasoning and becomes evident in one’s choices, speech, and character. A person who truly fears God will depart from evil, walk humbly, and pursue righteousness even when it is inconvenient. This kind of wisdom cannot be taught in a classroom; it is born from a heart surrendered to God.
In everyday life, the fear of the Lord should govern our decisions. Before making plans, we ought to acknowledge God’s authority and seek His guidance. Proverbs 3:5–6 reinforces this when it says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.” The wise man or woman submits their understanding to God, knowing that human reasoning without divine direction leads to error. Wisdom, therefore, is not how much you know but how much you depend on God.
One practical way to grow in wisdom is to remain teachable. A humble person accepts correction — whether it comes through God’s Word, through a teacher, or through life’s experiences. Even rebuke, when received rightly, becomes a stepping stone to growth. Those who fear the Lord value correction because they know it is one of God’s tools for shaping the heart. As Proverbs 12:1 puts it, “Whoever loves instruction loves knowledge, but he who hates correction is stupid.”]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/68110511Mon, 13 Oct 2025 04:57:08 +0000PreachifyDay 1: The Beginning of Wisdom Text: Proverbs 1:7 – “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction.” Wisdom is one of the most sought-after virtues in human life.

A beautiful morning to anyone listening to this message. I want you to take a few deep breaths. Allow your mind to slow down because God is near, and He is longing to spend some quality time with you today, starting from this morning. Amen!
Have you ever been in a position to secure something precious to you: relationship, properties, life etc. and you let down your guard when you are not supposed to? Probably, you got lazy. Maybe you got distracted. Maybe you cared too much about someone else’s opinions. Maybe you got tired of standing your ground.
When we take a careful look back at history, we have come to see many great men, women, boys and girls who went down, due to one of those reasons listed up there.
Peter, one Jesus’ closest disciples, would understand your situation right now. And he will understand better. He left everything to follow Jesus. He loved, trusted, and believed in Jesus. But when associated with Jesus threatened his own security and reputation, Peter denied his LORD and Christ whom he at one point of his life, confessed to be “the Son of the Living God.” (Matthew 16.16). And this denial went on for three times (Matthew 26.34, 74; Luke 22.34, 55-60).
Thankfully, Jesus forgave him (Luke 22.31-32), restored him, and even empowered and entrusted his gospel and key to His Kingdom to Peter (Matthew 16.18-19) that the Bible says Peter preached with boldness on Pentecost day, the same day we read of 3,000 people were saved through baptism and the church of Christ began (Acts 2.14-47). It was the same Peter who writes:
“Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. Therefore, stand firm against him and be strong in your faith. Remember that Christians all over the world is going through the same kind of suffering you are experiencing.” 1 Peter 5.8-9 (NLT)
When we think about what it looks like to follow Jesus, it is important to remember that we have an enemy who doesn’t want us to go closer to God. But when we take it as a priority to live our lives closer to God, though we encounter divers form of darts thrown at us by the devil God is always there to give us victory. However, if we are going to resist the devil, we must stay on both the offensive and defensive.
The offensive: stay focus with the LORD. Stand firm by daily equipping yourself with God’s word. Make friends of God’s dear children (Ephesians 5.1). Fight for time and constant connection with Him. Remind yourself that there are others fighting in prayers with you.
The defensive: if someone is twisting the truth of God’s word, call it out. If you notice an injustice, do something to help with humility. If your enemy the devil is wreaking havoc in someone’s life, marriage, and spiritual journey, have the courage to confront that situation.
We need to stay alert because the devil is not happy seeing God’s people doing well for God. When marriages are peaceful, he always finds a way to distort it. When an addict is struggling to push that lifestyle away, the devil brings new friends and ideas and ten thousand reasons not to discontinue such deadly habit. We must be aware of the wiles, vices, and tactics of our enemy the devil.
The reason why many of us fall prey to the devil’s attack is because of our negligence in studying God’s word.
Dear friends, for the times you have already let your guard down, do not allow yourself to stay stuck in guilt and shame. We have all had moments where we have slipped. What do we do? We simply ask for mercy. Let us be like Peter who despite his mistake never considered taking his life like Judas Iscariot did but genuinely sought for forgiveness.
As a wife, you may have broken your marital vow to defile your bed and the guilt is running down like drops of sweat. As a husband, you may have cheated on your wife and made her look like a fool, and you are not comfortable with your action, don’t think of killing yourself. God understands your weaknesses, and He expect we acknowledge our wrong and seek His mercy.
What about the young unmarried ladies who for one reason or the other got themselves involved in acts that are shameful to speak of among the unbelievers: abortion, prostitution, double-dating, lying, drug and hard substance intake, nudity etc. and you have realized these things are unhealthy, Christ is here to recalibrate you. To wash and cleanse you of your dirt. The invitation? Come, just as you are! Same goes to the young men into fraudulent activities, drug and substance intake, Jesus is calling and waiting for you.
When Jesus came back to life, He found Peter, broke bread with him, He gave him another chance. You also can have another chance today. Come just as you are. Do not stay broken because you were carried away from your guard post. Come, we members of the Church of Christ will help you come back to Christ, where you will find peace, and a new purpose for living.
Let me pray for you:
Dear Father in heaven, we thank you for calling us your own. Thank you for grace you have made sufficient to us. This we will never take for granted. Father, we truly long and desire to live our lives for you. All we ask is your help for us to stay alert throughout today and always. Help us to be aware of the things you want us to pay attention to, both good and bad. Give us the courage to step out in faith when you ask us to. Help us to discern what is holy, so that we can please you in all that we do. In Jesus’ name, Amen.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/67715442Thu, 11 Sep 2025 06:04:50 +0000PreachifySTAY ALERT!

Dear friends, for the times you have already let your guard down, do not allow yourself to stay stuck in guilt and shame. We have all had moments where we have slipped. What do we do? We simply ask for mercy. Let us be like Peter who despite his mistake never considered taking his life like Judas Iscariot did but genuinely sought for forgiveness.

A beautiful morning to anyone listening to this message. I want you to take a few deep breaths. Allow your mind to slow down because God is near, and He is longing to spend some quality time with you today, starting from this morning. Amen!
The letter from James, found in the New Testament, is overflowing with practical wisdom for our daily lives. James was the brother of Jesus, and his writings are full of teachings similar to how Jesus taught in the gospels.
James 4.17 provides us with a very simple definition of sin. James says that sin is when we know what we ought to do and we choose to neglect it, makes it a sin. It is when we have knowledge of what is right, but we deliberately choose not to do it.
There are many ways that we learn what the right thing to do is. When we read Scripture, we are constantly learning how God wants us to live, and what He wants us to do with our lives. we also have the Holy Spirit within us who guides and teaches us on the right path which leave us with no excuse for not knowing the right thing to do in almost every situation – because God has told us how He’s designed things to work and how we should act. So, when we decide not to live according to God’s ways, we are sinning.
To our text this morning, James 4.17; it’s sobering because it reminds us that sin is not just about what we do wrong but also what we failed to do when we know what is right. We often assumed that as long that we are not doing anything evil, we are fine. But what if God makes it clear; when we know the will of God and choose to delay or ignore it that too is a sin. And sometimes the LORD will prompt you to reach out to someone, you know, to forgive, to let go, to give, to speak, and to step forward and those moments obedience is not optional, it is crucial. Because delayed obedience, is disobedience. And when we miss the timing of obedience, we also miss the blessings that comes with it.
Look at King Saul in 1 Samuel 15: God told him to utterly destroy the Amalekites, every man, woman, child and livestock, but Saul thinking he had a better idea spared king Agag and kept the best of the sheep and the cattle which he called sacrifice but God called it rebellion. The single act of partial obedience caused him everything: his anointing, his crown, his legacy. He obeyed 95% but it was 5% disobedience that disqualified him before God.
Dear friends, let that be a warning and a wake-up call that partial obedience is still disobedience. God is not impressed by how much of His word we obeyed. He’s honored when we follow His instructions fully and completely even when it’s hard and difficult, especially when it doesn’t make any sense. The encouragement this morning; if God is prompting you to move, please move. If God is telling you to speak, please speak. If God is calling you to let go, let go. Don’t delay, don’t argue. Don’t reason your way out of obedience because the cost of disobedience is far greater than the sacrifice of disobedience.
If you have been hearing the pure gospel of salvation for your soul, why tarriest thou? Arise and be baptized, for your sin to be washed away, calling on the name of the LORD – Acts 22.16 What has God asked you to do that you have been avoiding to do or intentionally delaying? Remember, delayed obedience is disobedience. But today, you can do what is right! So, I want you to take some time to think about an area where you know you are not following God’s best for your life. Confess that sin holding you captive to Him and experience His loving forgiveness. If you truly want to know more about THE WAY OF LIFE, visit The Church Of Christ nearest to you. It is my earnest prayer for you that God will help you to find the strength in Him to fully obey Him promptly, completely, and joyfully. Let me pray for you:
Dear loving Father, the inhabitant of all eternity, thank you for your faithfulness towards us. We ask that you forgive us of the times when we felt you’re calling and choose not to act. Convict us of areas in our lives where we are not following you. Thank you Daddy for the gift of second chance. Guide us as we strive to live better for you and others in Christ name, amen.

A beautiful morning to anyone listening to this message. I want you to take a few deep breaths. Allow your mind to slow down because God is near, and He is longing to spend some quality time with you today, starting from this morning. Amen!
Let me say a word of prayer for us as we journey with God together this morning:
Dear Father, we are so grateful that we can call You, “Father.” You are perfect in all Your way and yet, in our weaknesses, You choose to know us and call us Your children. When we consider what that means, we are truly overwhelmed and humbled. You are so good to us and we hold You dearly in our lives. holy is Your NAME, Father! We love You because You loved us first and we ascribe all praise to You through Christ we pray, amen.
Journeying with God is not a one-time decision. It is a life-long pilgrimage, a day-by-day walk of trust, transformation, and faithfulness. Psalm 84 points a beautiful picture of some travelers whose hearts are set on reaching a particular destination; God’s dwelling place. They’re blessed, not because the road is easy, but because their strength comes from HASHEM.
If our strength came from ourselves, we would not make it very far because life brings challenges; the unexpected moments and seasons: dry seasons, steep climbs, unexpected detours etc. If we are depending only on our own energy, it is easy to get weary and discouraged. But when our strength is in God, the journey changes. We are not walking alone. We are empowered by God’s Holy Spirit. We are supported by His promises. With Him we have a clear destination, and the blessing is not just at the end, but along the way.
So, my dear friend, where do you get your strength? Eating some healthy food, doing some exercises, or reading a book or thinking of spending time with friends might be a possible good way of developing some strength for a while. Psalm 84.5 reminds me of a story from a folk in a Christian community:
Forty years ago, Cephas was in a car accident that caused him to suffer paralysis in both his arm and his legs. His fingers on his left hand no longer works and a limited movement on his right hand. Something as simple as opening his bible became nearly impossible. But Cephas doesn’t let his situation keeps him from spending some quality time with God’s word; he continued to engaging with God’s word on his phone through the bible app. During one of his moment in scripture, he came across today’s verse. Through God’s word, Cephas was reminded of the joy he received when we get our strength from God. Here’s what Cephas shared:
“When we go through rough times, even if we are not sure why these things happened, we should not neglect to read God’s word because God is in every situation. God is my strength because there is no way I could do everything by myself.”
No matter our circumstances or situation, we need to understand that God is the source of our strength. We don’t have to do things alone. God is with us; He will lead us through all our difficult moment as our hearts are on Him. So today, I want us to keep in mind that God is the ultimate source of our strength; not in our healthy meals, sound exercises, skillfulness, smartness, brilliance, and beauty.
When you are feeling tired in your marriage, empty with ideas on how to go about your project or low on energy to continue your studies and spiritual journey, seek God’s strength just like Cephas does.
If today finds you tired or uncertain, remember this: the strength you need is not something you have to muster up. It is something God freely gives. Lean into Him. Set your heart on the journey. He will be faithful every step of the way. Because a heart set on pilgrimage is a hearts that knows this world is not our home. We are pressing on toward something greater and someone greater.

But the cross of Christ does not allow for divided loyalty. It draws a clear line between righteousness and unrighteousness, holiness and compromise. God says, “Be ye holy, for I am holy” (1 Peter 1:16). His call to holiness has not expired with time. The same God who was holy in the days of Abraham, Moses, and Paul is still holy today. To lower His standard because of cultural shifts is to imply that God Himself has changed, but Malachi 3:6 reminds us, “I am the Lord, I change not.”
Pretence is a dangerous spiritual deception. Jesus, in Matthew 23, rebuked the Pharisees sharply for this same sin. He described them as people who looked clean outwardly but were full of corruption inside. Pretence makes us comfortable in sin while convincing us that all is well. It blinds us from true repentance because we cover ourselves with religious activities. It makes us quick to condemn others while excusing ourselves. And perhaps worst of all, it confuses unbelievers who look at the church and see no difference between the world and those who claim to follow Christ.
Today, many justify their compromises with the excuse that “the times have changed.” They say, “What was considered sin before is not as serious now,” or “We must blend in to be relevant.” But my friends, the cross of Jesus has not changed. Holiness has not expired. Truth has not evolved into something relative. The culture of the world does not determine the standard of Christ. Paul warns us in Romans 12:2: “Be not conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” When we adjust our morals to fit the world’s trends, we are not following Christ; we are abandoning Him. Christ came not to adapt to sinful times, but to redeem people out of them.
God desires truth in the inward parts (Psalm 51:6). Christianity is not an outward show—it is an inner transformation that reflects in our daily lives. Paul reminds us in 2 Corinthians 5:17: “If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” This means there is no room for double life, no space for secret sins covered up by public religiosity, no pretending on Sunday and compromising throughout the week. The world is not in need of pretenders but of witnesses, genuine men and women whose lives reflect the power and purity of the cross.
Beloved, pretence may deceive man, but it can never deceive God. Scripture makes it plain in Galatians 6:7: “Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” The mask of hypocrisy will one day be stripped away. Christ is coming back for a church without spot or wrinkle (Ephesians 5:27), not a church hiding behind excuses of modernity. This is the time to tear away the false covering and return to genuine Christianity—where our words, actions, and hearts align with the standard of Christ.
If you find yourself living a double life, hear the voice of the Spirit today: repent and return to the Lord. Acts 3:19 says, “Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.” There is still mercy available for all who will lay aside pretence and live sincerely before God. And if you have not surrendered your life to Christ, or you once did but drifted away, today is the day of salvation. Do not harden your heart. Confess Him as Lord, believe in your heart, and commit to walk in truth.
Pretence is a dangerous mask. It destroys our witness, corrupts our souls, and separates us from the reality of Christ’s transforming power. Let us put it away. Let us return to authentic, genuine Christian living. Let our lives declare Christ not only by what we say but by how we live.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/67563416Sun, 31 Aug 2025 04:01:07 +0000PreachifyIn our world today, the issue of pretence has become a serious matter in the body of Christ. Pretence simply means living a life that is not real, putting on an appearance that does not match who we truly are inside. Sadly, many believers have fallen...

That is the plain truth. Every day we wake up to the harsh realities of the world we live in, rising prices, hunger in many homes, unemployment for graduates who worked hard to earn their certificates, and endless news of killings, kidnappings, and corruption. Everywhere we turn, there seems to be a reason to sigh in despair. Even as Christians, these prevailing hardships sometimes shake us, leaving us destabilized and questioning: “Where is God in all of this?”
The devil takes advantage of such moments. He whispers: “You need to survive. Just do what others are doing. Cut corners. Bend a little. It doesn’t matter how—just make sure you belong.” Sadly, many who once walked with Christ fall into this trap. In desperation to “make it,” they cross the line. Some get involved in internet fraud, others sell their bodies, some join cults, and many dabble into dishonest businesses. The desire to belong, to escape hardship, has led many to ruin. Yet, the word of God comes clearly today: “Don’t be discouraged.”
In Psalm 42:5, the psalmist cried out, “Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him, the help of my countenance and my God.” Discouragement is real, but it is not final. Hardship is real, but it does not define the end of our story. Throughout Scripture, we see that suffering was never the conclusion for God’s people. Joseph endured betrayal and prison before he sat on the throne in Egypt. Israel groaned under the weight of slavery before the Red Sea parted. Even our Lord Jesus wore a crown of thorns before He was given the crown of glory. Child of God, your present struggle is not your final destination—it is only a passage.
The temptation in these moments is to compromise. When food is scarce, when bills are piling, when the pressure to “show success” is unbearable, the world’s shortcut begins to look attractive. But Jesus warns us in Mark 8:36: “What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his own soul?” There is a kind of wealth that destroys, a kind of success that is short-lived, and a kind of comfort that leaves eternal regret. The devil has nothing to give for free—every offer comes with destruction attached.
But here is our assurance: God is still on the throne. He is not blind to your struggles, nor deaf to your cries. The same God who sent ravens to feed Elijah in the wilderness, who brought water from a rock for Israel, and who multiplied loaves and fishes for the hungry crowd is the same God watching over you today. David said in Psalm 37:25, “I have been young, and now am old; yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.” God has not changed. He who was faithful then is still faithful now.
Beloved, understand this: faith is not tested in good times; it is tested in fire. Daniel’s faith was not proven in the palace but in the lion’s den. The three Hebrew boys did not demonstrate their loyalty to God by singing hymns in the temple but by refusing to bow before the golden image, even when the furnace was seven times hotter. In the same way, your faith is being tested in this season. Will you stand with God, or will you bow to the pressure of compromise? James 1:12 reminds us: “Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.”
So I say again: don’t be discouraged. Don’t let the hardship of today rob you of the glory of tomorrow. Don’t let the pressure of belonging push you into ungodly means of income. Don’t sell your eternity for a temporary taste of comfort. The God who lifted Joseph, who preserved Daniel, and who restored Job will also lift you.
And perhaps as you hear this message, you realize you have already crossed the line. Maybe you have compromised, maybe you have given in, maybe you feel trapped in the web of sin or shortcuts. The good news is that Christ is still calling you back. In Matthew 11:28, He says: “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” You do not have to remain where you fell. His arms are open. His blood still forgives.

Life is hard. That is the plain truth. Every day we wake up to the harsh realities of the world we live in, rising prices, hunger in many homes, unemployment for graduates who worked hard to earn their certificates, and endless news of killings, kidnappings, and corruption. Everywhere we turn, there seems to be a reason to sigh in despair. Even as Christians, these prevailing hardships sometimes shake us, leaving us destabilized and questioning: “Where is God in all of this?”
The devil takes advantage of such moments. He whispers: “You need to survive. Just do what others are doing. Cut corners. Bend a little. It doesn’t matter how—just make sure you belong.” Sadly, many who once walked with Christ fall into this trap. In desperation to “make it,” they cross the line. Some get involved in internet fraud, others sell their bodies, some join cults, and many dabble into dishonest businesses. The desire to belong, to escape hardship, has led many to ruin. Yet, the word of God comes clearly today: “Don’t be discouraged.”
In Psalm 42:5, the psalmist cried out, “Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him, the help of my countenance and my God.” Discouragement is real, but it is not final. Hardship is real, but it does not define the end of our story. Throughout Scripture, we see that suffering was never the conclusion for God’s people. Joseph endured betrayal and prison before he sat on the throne in Egypt. Israel groaned under the weight of slavery before the Red Sea parted. Even our Lord Jesus wore a crown of thorns before He was given the crown of glory. Child of God, your present struggle is not your final destination—it is only a passage.
The temptation in these moments is to compromise. When food is scarce, when bills are piling, when the pressure to “show success” is unbearable, the world’s shortcut begins to look attractive. But Jesus warns us in Mark 8:36: “What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his own soul?” There is a kind of wealth that destroys, a kind of success that is short-lived, and a kind of comfort that leaves eternal regret. The devil has nothing to give for free—every offer comes with destruction attached.
But here is our assurance: God is still on the throne. He is not blind to your struggles, nor deaf to your cries. The same God who sent ravens to feed Elijah in the wilderness, who brought water from a rock for Israel, and who multiplied loaves and fishes for the hungry crowd is the same God watching over you today. David said in Psalm 37:25, “I have been young, and now am old; yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.” God has not changed. He who was faithful then is still faithful now.
Beloved, understand this: faith is not tested in good times; it is tested in fire. Daniel’s faith was not proven in the palace but in the lion’s den. The three Hebrew boys did not demonstrate their loyalty to God by singing hymns in the temple but by refusing to bow before the golden image, even when the furnace was seven times hotter. In the same way, your faith is being tested in this season. Will you stand with God, or will you bow to the pressure of compromise? James 1:12 reminds us: “Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.”
So I say again: don’t be discouraged. Don’t let the hardship of today rob you of the glory of tomorrow. Don’t let the pressure of belonging push you into ungodly means of income. Don’t sell your eternity for a temporary taste of comfort. The God who lifted Joseph, who preserved Daniel, and who restored Job will also lift you.
And perhaps as you hear this message, you realize you have already crossed the line. Maybe you have compromised, maybe you have given in, maybe you feel trapped in the web...]]>669falsefullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/go-with-god-episode-593-preachify-daily-devotional--67550185https://api.spreaker.com/episode/67550185Fri, 29 Aug 2025 05:58:06 +0000PreachifyProverbs 16:3308arrogance,god,humility,jehovah,plans,succeedfalsefullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/making-it-count-ephesians-5-15-16--67535757 Text: Ephesians 5:15–16 – “See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil.”
Life is a precious gift from God, but what we do with it is our gift back to Him. Each day we live is a page written in the story of our lives, and one day that story will be presented before God. The question we must ask ourselves is: Are we making our lives count? Many live carelessly, wasting opportunities as if they will live forever on this side of eternity. Yet the Bible reminds us that our days are numbered. Psalm 90:12 says, “So teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.” In other words, life is short, fragile, and uncertain. James 4:14 compares life to a vapour that appears briefly and then vanishes away. Understanding this truth should compel us to live wisely, intentionally, and purposefully.
To make life count, we must first understand the value of life. Time is limited, and opportunities are precious. Once lost, they cannot be regained. Your influence matters too, how you live will affect not only your own future but also the lives of those around you and generations to come. This means we cannot afford to drift through life aimlessly; we must live with purpose and direction.
How then can we make life truly count? First, by making our salvation count. 2 Corinthians 6:2 says, “Now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.” Without Christ, life is empty no matter how successful it appears outwardly. The most important decision anyone can make is to surrender to Jesus Christ and build their life on Him. Second, we must make our service count. 1 Corinthians 15:58 encourages us to be steadfast and abound in the work of the Lord, for our labour in Him is never in vain. Don’t be a passive observer in God’s kingdom, be actively involved in His mission. Souls are perishing, and the harvest is plentiful; what you do for the Lord will echo into eternity.
Third, we should make our relationships count. Hebrews 10:24–25 urges us to consider one another, stirring up love and good works. Life is not just about accomplishments; it’s about impact. Use your relationships to encourage, uplift, and bring others closer to God. Forgive quickly, love genuinely, and speak words that build, not tear down. Finally, make your decisions count. Proverbs 3:5–6 tells us to trust in the Lord with all our hearts and lean not on our own understanding. Every choice we make shapes our future, so seek God’s guidance in every step you take.
Why is all this important? Because time is running out. Romans 13:11 warns us that salvation is nearer now than when we first believed. Eternity is real, and Hebrews 9:27 reminds us that it is appointed for man once to die and after this, the judgment. We will all give an account of our lives to God (Romans 14:12). On that day, what will you present to Him—excuses or evidence of a life well-lived?
The Bible is filled with examples of those who made their lives count. Paul could confidently declare in 2 Timothy 4:7, “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.” Esther risked her life to save her people, seizing her God-given moment in history. And Jesus Christ Himself, though He lived only about 33 years on earth, filled every moment with purpose, culminating in the cross where He triumphantly declared, “It is finished.”
Beloved, you have one life to live, and it will soon be past; only what’s done for Christ will last. Are you making it count? If you have not yet given your life to Christ, today is the time. Tomorrow is not guaranteed. If you are already in Christ, evaluate your walk with Him: Are you living intentionally, redeeming the time, and impacting lives for His glory?
Let us resolve today to make every breath, every talent, and every opportunity count for God. May we, like Paul, be able to say at the end of our journey, “I have finished my course,” and hear the Master’s words, “Well done, good and faithful servant.”]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/67535757Thu, 28 Aug 2025 04:05:07 +0000PreachifyMAKING IT COUNT Text: Ephesians 5:15–16 – “See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil.” Life is a precious gift from God, but what we do with it is our gift back to Him.

Text: Ephesians 4:32 – “And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.”
In today’s world, where selfishness, bitterness, and harshness seem to be the order of the day, the command to be kind stands out as a divine necessity. Kindness is more than mere politeness or good manners; it is a reflection of God’s nature in the life of His people. It is one of the fruits of the Spirit listed in Galatians 5:22, meaning it is evidence of a Spirit-filled life. True kindness is not passive but active; it moves beyond mere words to tangible deeds of love and compassion.
To understand kindness, we must first define it from a biblical perspective. Kindness is the deliberate act of showing goodness, compassion, and mercy to others, whether or not they deserve it. Luke 6:35 teaches, “But love your enemies, do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, for He is kind to the ungrateful and the evil.” This shows that kindness is selfless, unconditional, and practical. It is not based on feelings but on a decision to do good as God commands.
Our perfect example of kindness is God Himself. In creation, He shows kindness by providing for both the righteous and the wicked; “He maketh His sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust” (Matthew 5:45). In salvation, His kindness reaches its peak: while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us (Romans 5:8). Titus 3:4–5 calls this the “kindness and love of God our Savior.” Daily, His kindness sustains us; His mercies are new every morning (Lamentations 3:22–23). If we have received such overwhelming kindness, how can we refuse to extend it to others?
Why, then, must we be kind? Firstly, because God commands it. Micah 6:8 reminds us that one of the things the Lord requires of us is to “love mercy.” Secondly, kindness reflects Christ in us; Colossians 3:12 calls us to “put on kindness” as part of our Christian character. Thirdly, kindness is a powerful tool for evangelism. Acts of love often speak louder than sermons. Jesus Himself said in Matthew 5:16, “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” Finally, we all need kindness. Today you may be the one showing it, but tomorrow you may be the one in need of it.
The Bible is filled with inspiring examples of kindness. The parable of the Good Samaritan in Luke 10:30–37 teaches that kindness knows no boundaries of race, religion, or status. Dorcas, in Acts 9:36–39, was known for her acts of kindness, making garments for widows, and her good works spoke for her even in death. Jonathan’s kindness to David in 1 Samuel shows loyalty and selflessness in friendship, and David’s later kindness to Jonathan’s son Mephibosheth (2 Samuel 9:1–7) shows how kindness can endure beyond generations.
How can we show kindness in our daily lives? We can start with our words. Proverbs 15:1 says, “A soft answer turneth away wrath.” A kind word can lift a broken spirit or calm a troubled heart. We can show kindness through our deeds by helping those in need, visiting the sick, comforting the grieving, and supporting the weak (James 1:27). Forgiveness is another profound act of kindness—letting go of grudges, as Christ forgave us (Matthew 18:21–22). Lastly, we can be kind through hospitality—welcoming others into our homes and hearts (Hebrews 13:2).
However, obstacles hinder many from being kind. Selfishness blinds us to the needs of others (Philippians 2:3–4). Pride makes us feel superior, unwilling to stoop low to help (Romans 12:16). Unforgiveness hardens the heart, making kindness impossible (Ephesians 4:31–32). If we are to be truly kind, these barriers must be torn down by God’s grace.
Kindness, therefore, is not optional for the Christian; it is a command and a calling. It is a mark of spiritual maturity and a witness to the world that Christ lives in us. Imagine a church filled with kindness—grudges would fade, unity would thrive, and unbelievers would be drawn to the love of Christ.
But let us not forget, beloved, that the greatest act of kindness ever shown was when God gave His Son, Jesus Christ, to die for us. Romans 5:8 declares, “But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” This is kindness we did not deserve, but which we desperately needed. Perhaps you are here today, and you have not yet received this kindness. The kindness that forgives your sins, that gives you eternal life, and that transforms your heart so you can truly love others—this kindness is found only in Jesus Christ.
Friend, without Christ, your efforts at kindness will always fall short. You may do good outwardly, but the power to forgive enemies, love sacrificially, and live selflessly can only come from a heart changed by Him. Today, He extends His hand of kindness to you. He invites you to turn away from sin and accept Him as Lord and Savior. 2 Corinthians 6:2 reminds us, “Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.”]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/67522385Wed, 27 Aug 2025 04:01:07 +0000PreachifyKINDNESS Text: Ephesians 4:32 – “And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.” In today’s world, where selfishness, bitterness, and harshness seem to be the order of the day,...

We pray with tears streaming down our faces. We believe with all our hearts. We labor in hope, clinging to God’s promises. Yet, sometimes, the answers we seek seem delayed. And in the silence of unanswered prayers, a question often escapes our lips: “For how long?”
It is not a question of rebellion but of longing. It is the cry of a weary soul, like David’s in Psalm 13:1: “How long, O Lord? Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me?” If you have ever tossed on your bed at night, staring into the darkness, wondering if heaven still hears you, know this: you are not alone.
The pages of Scripture are filled with men and women who once asked this same question.
• Abraham waited twenty-five long years for the son God promised, watching his body age and Sarah’s womb remain barren. Yet, at the appointed time, Isaac was born.
• Hannah wept year after year in the temple, mocked by her rival, yet she held Samuel in her arms at God’s perfect time.
• Joseph dreamed of greatness as a teenager but spent thirteen years as a slave and prisoner before seeing a throne.
Each of them must have whispered in quiet moments, “Lord, for how long?” And yet, their lives testify to this unshakable truth: God’s timing is perfect.
Habakkuk 2:3 declares, “For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.” Beloved, your delay is not denial. God is not late; He is meticulous. What appears as silence is often His preparation. Behind the scenes, He is aligning people, circumstances, and resources to bring about not just an answer, but the right answer at the right time.
But why does He make us wait? Waiting has a purpose. It refines us. Romans 5:3-4 says, “Tribulation worketh patience; and patience, experience; and experience, hope.” Waiting shifts our focus from the gift to the Giver. It teaches us that faith is not measured by how loudly we shout “Amen!” but by how firmly we stand when heaven seems quiet. The waiting room, though painful, is never wasted; it is God’s classroom where He teaches us to trust Him beyond what we see.
Still, let us be honest—waiting is hard. There are days when the enemy whispers, “God has forgotten you.” Circumstances seem to laugh in your face, saying, “Nothing will ever change.” Perhaps you have prayed for a child, for healing, for a job, for a breakthrough in your family, and nothing has happened yet. Hear me: God has not forgotten you. History proves it. Sarah laughed at ninety, but she still cradled Isaac. The Israelites panicked at the Red Sea, but God split it wide open. Mary and Martha mourned for four days, but Jesus raised Lazarus from the grave. When God seems late, He is often setting the stage for a miracle that will silence every doubt and bring Him greater glory.
But in all of this, there is a greater question we cannot ignore. While we wait for earthly desires, have we secured our eternal destiny? What is the use of receiving your deepest earthly longing if, in the end, you lose your soul? Mark 8:36 asks, “For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?”
Today, the most urgent call is not for a job, a spouse, a healing, or a promotion, it is the call of salvation. Jesus Christ, the Son of God, left heaven, died on the cross for your sins, was buried, and rose again so that you might have eternal life. He offers this gift freely, but He will not force it upon you. He calls you to believe in Him (John 3:16), repent of your sins (Acts 17:30), confess Him as Lord (Romans 10:9-10), and be baptized for the forgiveness of sins (Acts 2:38).
Maybe you have been waiting for the “right time” to surrender your life to Him. Friend, that time is now. Tomorrow is not promised. Just as your earthly prayers have an appointed time, so does your life. 2 Corinthians 6:2 says, “Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.”
Listen closely: God is speaking to you right now. He is saying, “I have not forgotten your prayers. I have not overlooked your tears. Trust Me with your life and your eternity.” Will you keep Him waiting? Or will you come?
Beloved, your “how long” will not last forever. His promises are sure. His timing is flawless. Keep trusting. Keep praying. Keep serving. And above all, give Him your heart today. For the greatest miracle is not when you finally hold what you have prayed for, it is when Christ holds you, saves you, and gives you eternal life.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/67510459Tue, 26 Aug 2025 04:01:07 +0000PreachifyFOR HOW LONG?

Idolatry is not just about bowing to a carved image or worshipping a statue. It is far more subtle, far more personal, and far more dangerous. It is anything—anything—that takes the place of God in your heart. The Bible declares plainly in Exodus 20:3, “Thou shalt have no other gods before me.”
Idolatry is not just an Old Testament problem; it is alive today. It creeps into our homes, sits quietly in our hearts, and steals away the devotion that belongs only to God. It is not always obvious; in fact, it often wears a friendly face. Family, career, wealth, ambition, entertainment, even self—these are not evil in themselves, but when they rise above God in our priorities, they become idols.
Paul warns in Colossians 3:5, “Put to death therefore what is earthly in you… and covetousness, which is idolatry.” Did you catch that? Covetousness—an excessive desire for things—is idolatry. You may never bow to a shrine, but if your heart is consumed by money, status, or comfort, you are guilty of the same sin that provoked God’s wrath in the days of Israel.
Examples That Speak Loudly
Consider Israel at Mount Sinai. They had just been delivered from slavery by God’s mighty hand, yet when Moses delayed, they made a golden calf and called it their god (Exodus 32). How quickly they turned away!
Consider Solomon, the wisest king to ever live. Blessed beyond measure, yet his heart was stolen by foreign wives and their gods (1 Kings 11). Wisdom was not enough to save him when idols crept in.
Consider Demas, a companion of Paul, once faithful in the work of the Lord, but Paul wrote of him in sorrow: “Demas hath forsaken me, having loved this present world” (2 Timothy 4:10).
What about you? Are you relying more on wealth than on God? Do you love entertainment more than prayer? Do you prioritize your career, family, or hobbies above worship? What would you struggle to surrender if God asked for it?
Why Idols Are Deadly
Idols are not harmless distractions—they are soul killers. Jesus said in Matthew 6:24, “No man can serve two masters.” You cannot serve God and something else at the same time. Idols rob God of His rightful place, and they lead to death: “The wages of sin is death” (Romans 6:23). Jesus Himself warned in Matthew 10:37, “He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me.”
Brethren, idols do not just endanger your spiritual life—they can cost you your soul eternally.
The Way Out – Total Surrender to Christ
There is only one way to break free from idols: full surrender to Christ. Jesus said in Luke 9:23, “If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.” Daily denial. Daily devotion. Daily allegiance.
But surrendering to Christ begins with obedience to His Gospel. Here is the way, according to the teaching of Christ and His apostles:
• Hear the Word (Romans 10:17): Faith begins by hearing God’s message.
• Believe in Jesus (Hebrews 11:6, John 8:24): Without faith in Him, you cannot be saved.
• Repent of your sins (Acts 2:38): Turn away from sin and every idol.
• Confess Christ as Lord (Romans 10:9-10): Proclaim Him before men.
• Be Baptized for the remission of sins (Mark 16:16, Acts 22:16): Baptism is where your sins are washed away, where you put on Christ, and where you are added to His church (Galatians 3:27).
• Live Faithfully (Revelation 2:10): Remain loyal to Him until death.
A Final Plea
So, I ask you again: What are your idols? Are they worth your soul? Jesus asked in Mark 8:36, “For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?”
Will you continue to cling to your idols until it’s too late? Or will you cast them down today and come to Christ? The apostle Paul writes in 2 Corinthians 6:2, “Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.”
The Lord is calling you right now. If you have never obeyed the gospel, come and confess His name and be baptized for the remission of your sins. If you are a Christian who has drifted back to idols, repent and come home. Do not wait. Do not delay. Eternity is too long, and your soul is too precious.
The Lord is calling. Will you respond?]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/67502059Mon, 25 Aug 2025 05:55:28 +0000PreachifyWHAT ARE MY IDOLS?

Message:
There are no more powerful words in human history than the three Jesus uttered on the cross: “It is finished.” Those words weren’t spoken in defeat, weakness, or resignation. They were spoken in strength—an eternal proclamation that the plan of salvation was complete, the power of sin was broken, and the path to reconciliation with God was fully opened.
What Jesus finished on the cross was the fulfillment of a plan set in motion before the foundation of the world. From the moment man fell in the Garden of Eden, a rescue mission began. Through every shadow in the Old Testament—the Passover lamb, the bronze serpent lifted in the wilderness, the sacrifices in the temple—God was pointing forward to a single moment when His Son would hang between heaven and earth and cry out, “It is finished.”
He didn't say "I am finished." He said "It is finished." That means your shame, your guilt, your condemnation—finished. Your fear, your curse, your addiction—finished. Your past, no matter how dark, has no power over your future when you are in Christ. That’s not wishful thinking. That’s the solid foundation of our faith.
Let’s revisit the emotional story of the thief on the cross (Luke 23:39–43). This man lived a life of crime, rebellion, and dishonor. By all earthly standards, he deserved the punishment he was receiving. Yet in his final moments, when he could do no good deeds, when he had no more time to make up for his past, he simply looked to Jesus and said, “Lord, remember me…”
Jesus replied, “Today, you will be with Me in paradise.”
Why? Because “It is finished.” Grace was extended not because the thief earned it, but because Jesus purchased it.
The same goes for you. You may feel like you've failed too many times, or that your prayers have gone unanswered for too long. You may be carrying regrets that feel heavier than you can bear. But the cross declares that Jesus already bore them. Every whip, every nail, every drop of blood had a purpose—to give you freedom.
Some still try to earn what Jesus already gave freely. They live in spiritual exhaustion, striving to be good enough, holy enough, or acceptable. But the Gospel is not about your effort; it’s about His finished work.
“By one sacrifice, He has made perfect forever those who are being made holy.” — Hebrews 10:14
What does this mean for you today?
• You don’t fight for victory—you fight from victory.
• You’re not striving for forgiveness—you’re already forgiven.
• You’re not abandoned—you are accepted in the Beloved.
• You don’t walk alone—the Spirit of God lives in you because of the cross.
No more condemnation. No more fear. The debt is cancelled. The door is open. You are invited—not just to visit God's presence, but to dwell there.
If Jesus finished the work, stop trying to finish what He already completed. Instead, rest in it. Walk in it. Trust in it. Live like it’s true—because it is.

Prayer:
Lord Jesus,
I thank You for finishing the work I could never do on my own. You carried the weight of my sin, the shame of my past, and the punishment I deserved—and You paid it all with Your blood.
When You said “It is finished,” You declared that I am no longer bound. My chains are broken, my record is cleared, and my soul is redeemed.
Father, I ask for forgiveness for the times I’ve tried to earn what You already gave. Teach me to walk in the freedom, the peace, and the confidence that comes from knowing it’s already done.
Today, I lay every burden at the foot of the cross—my pain, my questions, my struggles—and I trust You with the outcome. Help me live not in defeat, but in the power of the finished work.
Like the thief on the cross, I say: “Lord, remember me.” And I know, because of Your mercy, You will.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/67138460Sun, 27 Jul 2025 05:28:01 +0000PreachifyDay 7: Jesus Finished the Work Text: John 19:30 — "It is finished."

________________________________________
Message:
Words are not just sounds that come out of our mouths. They are spiritual instruments — seeds that either produce life or death. Many times, we are quick to blame the devil, our background, or other people for our stagnation, yet we fail to recognize the power that lies in our own mouths.
The Bible says that we will eat the fruit of what we speak — whether good or bad. That means every time you speak defeat, fear, or failure, you plant seeds that will eventually bear bitter fruit. On the other hand, when you speak faith, truth, and life, you partner with God’s Word, and those seeds will produce fruit in due time.
Sadly, many Christians today live defeated lives, not because God failed them, but because they’ve declared defeat long before the battle even began. They say things like:
• “This sickness will kill me.”
• “I will never get married.”
• “There’s no hope for my child.”
• “My situation is beyond repair.”
These words may sound honest in the moment, but they are dangerous. They create an atmosphere where God’s power is hindered by our unbelief. God does not respond to complaints — He responds to faith-filled words.

Emotional Biblical Story: Ezekiel and the Valley of Dry Bones (Ezekiel 37:1–10)
In Ezekiel 37, God takes the prophet Ezekiel to a valley filled with dry bones — not just dead, but very dry bones. It was a scene of total hopelessness. This was Israel’s spiritual state: defeated, scattered, lifeless.
Then God asks a question that seems almost cruel:
“Son of man, can these bones live?”
Ezekiel wisely answers, “Sovereign Lord, you alone know.”
God then commands Ezekiel to speak to the bones. Not to mourn, not to analyze, not to strategize — but to prophesy. Ezekiel had to say, “Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord!” He was instructed to speak what God said, not what the situation looked like.
And when he did, the bones rattled, came together, gained flesh, and eventually stood up — a vast army.
What brought the transformation? Words. Spirit-filled, God-given words spoken in faith.
This isn’t just a story of a prophet — it’s a story for you. Maybe your own life feels like a valley of dry bones:
• A dead marriage
• A lost child
• A shattered dream
• A delayed promise
• A body wracked with pain
God is asking you today: Can these bones live?
The answer lies in what you are willing to speak.
________________________________________
Speak What God Says:
God doesn’t ask you to lie about your situation — He asks you to speak His truth into it. Say:
• “I shall not die, but live to declare the works of the Lord.” (Psalm 118:17)
• “I am the head and not the tail, above and not beneath.” (Deuteronomy 28:13)
• “My God shall supply all my needs.” (Philippians 4:19)
• “By His stripes I am healed.” (Isaiah 53:5)
This is not “positive thinking.” This is faith speaking, aligning your voice with heaven.
________________________________________
Reflection:
Take a moment and examine the pattern of your speech. What do you say when you're frustrated? What do you declare over your children, your finances, your ministry, your body, or your future?
If your words were seeds, what kind of harvest would you expect?
Remember, life and death are in your tongue. Speak like someone who believes God still moves mountains. Speak life into that dead place. You may not see results overnight, but keep speaking — your words are working underground. A harvest is coming.
________________________________________
Prayer:
Father in Heaven,
Thank You for reminding me that my words carry power. I confess that I have often spoken carelessly — in fear, frustration, or doubt — and for that, I repent. I ask for Your mercy and grace.
Lord, I want to be like Ezekiel. Teach me to speak life, not death. Give me the courage to prophesy to the dry bones in my life. Let my lips be instruments of Your truth and not tools of the enemy. I declare today that every dead dream, every broken promise, and every dry season in my life shall live again — in Jesus’ name.
I pray for those who feel hopeless today — for the weary mother, the broken man, the sick child, the struggling believer. May Your Word revive their spirit. May new life come forth as we speak in faith.
Let Your promises be my language. Let Your truth be my confession. Let Your Spirit breathe upon every dry bone in my life.
In Jesus’ powerful name I pray,
Amen.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/67124769Sat, 26 Jul 2025 06:12:12 +0000PreachifyDay 6: Speak Life, Not Defeat Text: Proverbs 18:21 — "The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit." ________________________________________ Message: Words are not just sounds that come out of our mouths.

And when he did, the bones rattled, came together, gained flesh, and eventually stood up — a vast army.
What brought the transformation? Words. Spirit-filled, God-given words spoken in faith.
This isn’t just a story of a prophet — it’s a story for you. Maybe your own life feels like a valley of dry bones:
• A dead marriage
• A lost child
• A shattered dream
• A delayed promise
• A body wracked with pain
God is asking you today: Can these bones live?
The answer lies in what you are willing to speak.
________________________________________
Speak What God Says:
God doesn’t ask you to lie about your situation — He asks you to speak His truth into it. Say:
• “I shall not die, but live to declare the works of the Lord.” (Psalm 118:17)
• “I am the head and not the tail, above and not beneath.” (Deuteronomy 28:13)
• “My God shall supply all my needs.” (Philippians 4:19)
• “By His stripes I am healed.” (Isaiah 53:5)
This is not “positive thinking.” This is faith speaking, aligning your voice with heaven.
________________________________________
Reflection:
Take a moment and examine the pattern of your speech. What do you say when you're frustrated? What do you declare over your children, your finances, your ministry, your body, or your future?
If your words were seeds, what kind of harvest would you expect?
Remember, life and death are in your tongue. Speak like someone who believes God still moves mountains. Speak life into that dead place. You may not see results overnight, but keep speaking — your words are working underground. A harvest is coming.

Message:
The devil is a master accuser. He’s relentless in digging up our past, throwing it in our face, and convincing us that we are nothing more than the sum of our worst decisions. He wants us to wear shame like a cloak, to see ourselves as disqualified, damaged, and dirty. His strategy is to keep us stuck—paralyzed by guilt, silenced by regret, and robbed of our future.
But the Word of God declares a truth that shatters those lies: “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.” This is not symbolic. It is spiritual and real. When you come into Christ, God doesn’t just patch you up—He makes you new. He doesn’t just forgive you—He recreates you from the inside out. The old you, with all its mistakes, failures, and shame, is gone. What remains is a redeemed person, marked by grace and destined for purpose.
Your past does not have veto power over your future. Your identity is no longer defined by what you did, but by what Christ did on the cross. You are not the addict, the liar, the fornicator, the failure, the backslider. You are the forgiven, the redeemed, the beloved, the chosen, the sanctified. God's specialty is in rewriting stories, turning testaments of brokenness into testimonies of grace.

Emotional Biblical Story: The Story of Rahab
Rahab’s story is one of the most powerful demonstrations of how God can rewrite a person’s destiny regardless of their past. She lived in Jericho, a city known for its wickedness. As a prostitute, Rahab was a woman whose life was associated with sin, shame, and exploitation. In society’s eyes, she was unworthy of attention, unclean, and unsuitable for any kind of noble future.
Yet, when the Israelite spies entered the city, something stirred in Rahab’s heart. She had heard of the God of Israel—the One who parted the Red Sea, the One who delivered His people from Egypt. And despite her background, she chose to believe. She risked her life by hiding the spies, not out of fear, but out of faith. Her confession was bold: “The Lord your God, He is God in heaven above and on the earth below” (Joshua 2:11).
That act of faith forever changed her story. Instead of perishing with the rest of Jericho, Rahab was saved. But God didn’t stop at her salvation—He wove her into the very fabric of His redemptive plan. Rahab later married Salmon, a man of Israel, and they had a son named Boaz, who became the great-grandfather of King David. Eventually, Rahab was listed in the genealogy of Jesus Christ Himself (Matthew 1:5). From the house of shame to the lineage of the Savior—Rahab's past was no match for God's grace.
This story teaches us that God is not looking for perfect people—He’s looking for available hearts. A stained past does not stop God from birthing a glorious future. Rahab’s life reminds us that faith, even from the most unlikely person, activates divine transformation. It doesn’t matter how far gone you feel or how deep the mess is—God’s grace goes deeper still.
________________________________________
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for the transforming power of being in Christ. Thank You that my past no longer defines me and has no authority over my destiny. I bring every sin, every failure, every regret before You, and I lay them at the foot of the cross. I receive Your forgiveness, not because I deserve it, but because You freely give it through Your Son.
Help me, Lord, to walk daily in the truth that I am a new creation. Break every chain of shame and silence every voice of condemnation that tries to speak louder than Your promises. Just as You did with Rahab, use my life as a trophy of grace—a testimony that You still change lives and call the unqualified. Let my story reflect Your mercy and inspire others to trust You.
I step out of the shadows of my past and into the light of my calling. I embrace the future You have for me, knowing it is filled with purpose and hope. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
________________________________________
Encouragement:
Don’t let the scars of your past rob you of the beauty of your future. God is not consulting your history to determine your destiny. If Rahab could go from a harlot to a heroine, from shame to significance, then you too can rise from your lowest point. You are not beyond redemption. In Christ, your story is not over—it’s just beginning. Let grace have the final say. Let God rewrite the narrative. You are a new creation. Walk like it. Live like it. Believe it.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/67108186Fri, 25 Jul 2025 06:02:39 +0000PreachifyDay 5: Your Past Doesn’t Define Your Future Text: 2 Corinthians 5:17 — "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.

Emotional Biblical Story: David the Shepherd Boy
Consider young David. He was the youngest of eight sons, left to tend sheep while his older brothers were presented before the prophet Samuel. No one, not even his own father, thought he was king material. Yet God saw his heart.
“Man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” (1 Samuel 16:7)
While others saw a shepherd boy, God saw a king. While others laughed at the idea of a boy facing Goliath, God empowered him to conquer a giant with just a sling and a stone. David wasn’t trained in warfare. He didn’t have Saul’s armor. He had faith—and that was enough for God.
Lessons from David’s Story:
• God sees your potential even when others overlook you. David wasn’t invited to the lineup of potential kings. His own father underestimated him. But the anointing found him in the field. The lesson? Man may leave you out, but God will seek you out.
• Preparation happens in obscurity. The time David spent with the sheep wasn’t wasted. He learned courage by fighting lions and bears. He developed intimacy with God through worship. Don’t despise your hidden seasons—they are where God trains you for your public assignments.
• Faith is more powerful than physical strength. Goliath was a trained warrior; David was a youth with conviction. Your confidence in God will always outweigh the threats you face.
• You don’t need to wear someone else’s armor. Saul tried to clothe David in royal armor, but it didn’t fit. What God will use to elevate you isn’t borrowed methods or man-made titles—it’s what He’s already equipped you with.
• Victory brings glory to God, not self. When David triumphed, he didn’t boast in himself. He declared, “The battle is the Lord’s.” (1 Samuel 17:47). Your testimony is not for your fame but for God’s glory.
Your own “shepherd field”—that place where you’ve been overlooked—might just be where God is preparing you for your Goliath moment. Like David, you may be ordinary by the world’s standards, but in God’s hands, you are chosen for something great.
________________________________________
Prayer:
Heavenly Father,
Thank You for seeing value in me even when the world overlooks me. Thank You for reminding me that I don’t have to be perfect or powerful for You to use me.
Lord, just as You used David, Moses, and the disciples—ordinary people—to do extraordinary things, I surrender myself into Your hands. Remove the doubt and fear that hold me back. Help me trust in Your strength, not my own.
Use my life to bring glory to Your name. Let my weaknesses become a platform for Your power. And when people see what You’ve done through me, may they know that it was only by Your grace.
In Jesus' name,
Amen.

________________________________________
Message:
Waiting can be one of the most painful seasons of life. When the doors don’t open, when prayers seem unanswered, and when silence is the only reply from heaven — discouragement creeps in. But God’s Word reminds us that a delay is not a denial. His timing is not like ours. He sees the full picture and moves in wisdom, not haste.
One of the most touching and emotional examples of this truth is found in the story of Lazarus, in John 11. Mary and Martha sent word to Jesus: "Lord, the one you love is sick." They expected an immediate response — after all, Lazarus was Jesus’ close friend. But surprisingly, Jesus delayed. He stayed where He was for two more days. By the time He arrived, Lazarus was dead and buried for four days.
Martha met Him with words many of us have whispered in frustration:
"Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died."
Mary fell at His feet, weeping. Those were gut-wrenching moments of grief and confusion. They had called on Jesus in faith, but it seemed He had come too late. Yet, what looked like a delay was really a setup for a greater revelation of His power. Jesus wept with them — showing His deep compassion — and then called Lazarus out of the grave.
He could have healed Lazarus from afar, but He chose resurrection over healing, to demonstrate that delay is not defeat — and that God's glory sometimes comes through our darkest moments.
________________________________________
Lesson:
So maybe you’ve prayed for a child, a job, a breakthrough, or a restored relationship, and it seems heaven is silent. Don’t let delay sow the seeds of doubt. Trust the God who sees beyond your moment. He’s not ignoring you — He’s preparing the stage for something greater. God's delay is never without purpose. In the waiting, He is working — preparing you, building faith, aligning events, and ensuring that when the answer comes, it will be perfect and undeniable. Do not grow bitter in delay. Hold on to the promise, for it shall surely come.

Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for reminding me today that delay is not the same as denial. Like Mary and Martha, I’ve sometimes felt like You didn’t show up when I needed You most.

What promise have you laid in a “tomb” because of delay? Like Lazarus, God can still call it forth. Write that promise down again. Speak life over it in prayer.

________________________________________
Message:
The size of your faith is not what matters most; it is the presence of it. Even mustard-seed faith, when placed in the hands of the all-powerful God, can produce mighty results. In a world that praises self-confidence and visible strength, God invites us to trust Him, even in our smallest, weakest moments.
Many people delay taking steps forward because they believe they are not strong enough, not prepared enough, or not worthy enough. But Scripture teaches that God delights in using the weak, the overlooked, and the hesitant — because it reveals His power. Faith is not about how much you feel; it's about whom you trust.
Biblical Story: The Woman with the Issue of Blood (Mark 5:25–34)
For twelve long years, a woman suffered from a flow of blood. She had spent all she had on physicians, yet instead of getting better, she grew worse. She was isolated, unclean by the law, and invisible to society — a walking symbol of hopelessness.
But something changed the day she heard Jesus was passing by. She didn’t have a loud voice to call Him. She didn’t dare ask for attention. She didn’t even have strength to push through the crowd. All she had was a tiny, desperate faith.
"If I can just touch the hem of His garment, I will be made whole," she whispered in her heart.
And she did. One trembling reach, one small act of belief — and immediately, her bleeding stopped. Jesus felt power go out from Him and turned around, not to scold her, but to affirm her: “Daughter, your faith has made you well.”
This woman didn’t move a mountain with loud declarations or public faith — she simply believed, and acted. That’s mustard-seed faith.
Her story reminds us: It is not about the size of your faith, but the direction of it. Faith doesn’t deny the pain — it dares to believe that God is greater than it.
________________________________________
Encouragement:
Whatever mountain you’re facing — be it financial hardship, health issues, broken relationships, or internal battles — don’t wait for perfect faith. Just reach out. Even a quiet prayer, a whispered trust, or a simple step forward can activate heaven’s response.
God does not ask for full understanding; He asks for belief. And when you believe, even in weakness, mountains begin to shift.
________________________________________
Prayer:
Heavenly Father,
I come before You today with the little faith I have. Sometimes I feel tired, overwhelmed, and unsure. But I believe — help my unbelief. Teach me to trust You, not based on what I see, but on who You are.
Like the woman who touched the hem of Your garment, I reach out today in faith. I may not have all the strength, but I know You are strong. I may not have all the answers, but I know You are wise.
Let my mustard-seed faith move the mountains in my life. In Jesus’ name,
Amen.

Message:
When life hits hard, when the walls won’t move, when the answers won’t come — it’s easy
to feel stuck and defeated. We look around and see others progressing, doors opening for
them, while we remain waiting. The truth is, we all face moments where the odds seem

When life hits hard, when the walls won’t move, when the answers won’t come — it’s easy
to feel stuck and defeated. We look around and see others progressing, doors opening for
them, while we remain waiting. The truth is, we all face moments where the odds seem

We just lost the former president of Nigeria as the entire Nation is grieving. Though, some are happy he passed away while others call in retrospect those beautiful moments they had with him.
He once had the power to schedule meetings, appointments waited for his approval, bills waited for his powerful signature. He traveled with the most secured jets and cars even while he walked on the road; security was intact! However, just in the twinkle of an eye, his life disappeared like a mist. Those ranks, national glamour, awards and so on remain as he was left to his new world outside his beautiful house in Daura.
This should be a thousand reasons for everyone to reflect on the emptiness and futility of life; the uncertainty of life and the certainty of death. To those who boast in their ignorance and arrogance about their tomorrow, about what they will do to people, about what they will achieve tomorrow, where to travel to for business, God is asking you this morning again - WHAT IS YOUR LIFE?
Maybe it's a difficult question for you to answer, worry no more; here is how your life, my life is described:

1. Like mist or vapor
2. Like a shadow
3. Like a grass

Hmmm!

“But the wisdom that is from above (that is the wisdom from the throne of God, the wisdom from the Spirit of God Himself) is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.” James 3.17
Arison O. U. Evangelist/CC

It tells us about this supernatural wisdom, spiritual wisdom, this wisdom from the Spirit of God. Not like the wisdom of men that falters, the wisdom of men that darkens their understanding, the wisdom of men that makes them appear foolish in the sight of God; “Thinking to be wise they become fools” because in their folly, their hearts have been darkened in the emptiness of their wisdom.

This wisdom from the Spirit of God tells us about the qualities of that wisdom and how the Christian should live, interact and deal honestly with the people around them.

First it says that this wisdom is PURE! Not impure; for it does not lead us to impurity, it doesn’t lead us to pollution, it doesn’t lead us to evil, and unrighteousness.

The Spirit of God leads us with the wisdom that is first PURE. In all honesty, will you say ‘I have prayed to receive this kind of wisdom?’ well, you need more because;
More challenges will come
More people will cross your way
They will accuse you falsely
They will try to oppress you, deprive certain good things of life from you.

You need more of this wisdom that is pure. Keeps you pure. Keeps other people pure. And everyone that interacts with you becomes purer than they meet you. That is because you allow the pure wisdom of God to have authority in;
What you say
What you do
Where you find yourself
How you do things

That is the wisdom of God that your life makes people pure. Makes people purer than they were before they met you. Will your meeting with others cause a negative impact on their lives? Such can only happen when the wisdom of God is not there; pollution of mind and thoughts becomes prevalent. The wisdom that makes you purer and purer every day! It says;
“But the wisdom from above is first PURE…”

That is the first thing to be notice in the life of a Christian that have wisdom from above. Because you can notice that this man, this woman, this boy, this girl, this minister, this preacher has wisdom that keeps him pure, that keeps her ministry pure, and keeps everything that he does pure. She is more purer than we first knew her; that is wisdom from above.

Secondly, the wisdom that comes from the throne of God, the Spirit of God is then PEACEABLE! This wisdom doesn’t leads us to being angry, fighting, violent, and quarrelling. Rather, it is the wisdom that enables us to follow peace with all men.

The wisdom that makes the husband to follow peace with his wife and the wife to follow peace with the husband. The wisdom that makes the head of the organization pure and peaceable with all the people working and living with him in the house.

The wisdom that makes you peaceable with your father in-law, the wisdom that makes you peaceable with your mother in-law, the wisdom that makes you peaceable with your colleagues in the office, customers in your business place.

The wisdom that makes you peaceable with everybody around; and the world that rushes on will turn and say ‘he is a man of peace, she is a woman of peace…he is a possessor of peace, peace runs through his heart. Peace is seen in his dealing with neighbors and friends around. He is not boisterous, and oppressive.

The wisdom we are praying about and we should yearn for is the wisdom that is pure, peaceable and gentle. Will you reflect this pure, peaceable and gentle wisdom at home today as a husband, a wife, a child, a friend, a colleague, associate, and brethren? Pray more for this wisdom this morning as you walk and work the talk.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/66991286Wed, 16 Jul 2025 00:30:10 +0000PreachifyQUALITIES OF DIVINE WISDOM – PART ONE “But the wisdom that is from above (that is the wisdom from the throne of God, the wisdom from the Spirit of God Himself) is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good...

So many people strive for one thing more than any other—peace. The reason they seek it is because there’s no lasting comfort or freedom in their lives. It’s like they are always unsettled. The Bible defines peace primarily in three ways.
Psychological peace, the comfort within - 2 Thessalonians 3.16
Relational peace, harmony among humanity - Hebrews 12.14
Spiritual peace, which is between God and man - Peace with God means our consciences are cleared (Hebrews 10:22; Titus 3:5). The overwhelming weight of guilt that plagued us all is gone, placed on Jesus on the cross (Colossians 2:14; 1 Peter 2:24).
The Bible outlines how sin damages or wipes out all three types of peace. When God created man, he was at peace with God, himself, and everyone else. However, that peace was lost when he turned against God. Peace can be restored, but we can’t do it alone. God provided a way.
Jesus Christ, God’s only Son, was sent to our world to take away our sins. He did so by allowing Himself to be crucified, and it was that sacrifice that made it possible for us to have peace again—peace within ourselves, peace with each other and peace with God.
After Jesus died on the cross, He came back to life. That demonstrated Jesus is God, but also made it clear He desires for everyone to have perfect peace. “For He Himself is our peace, … and He came and preached peace to you who were far off and peace to those who were near” (Ephesians 2:14-17).
Jesus empowers each of us to overcome every type of sin. No matter how difficult your situation feels, Christ can break through it. But you must first acknowledge your sin and commit to Jesus, then you can have perfect peace and know its meaning.
Jesus said, “I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me” (John 16:33).
The fact is that you can not give yourself that peace, your husband, wife, siblings, family, colleagues and pastors can give it to you!
To have this perfect peace, you must know the One who can give it. And you must be ready to make that happen by yourself.
Are You Ready For The Peace Jesus Offers?
Just what you need to do is to receive the Lord Jesus Christ into your life as your only Savior and hope for eternal life not by the creed and assumptions of men which you can also declare to yourself. But a better way Christ has laid down for us to carefully follow and that is found in scripture. Come to Christ just as you are by;
Hearing and obeying the gospel - Romans 10.17
Believe the gospel - Mark 16.15-16; Romans 10.13-14; Hebrews 11.6
Repent off your sins - Luke 13.3;5, Acts 3.19
Confess faith in Christ - Acts 8.33
Be baptized for the remission of your sins - Mark 16.16; Acts 2.36-40; 16.30
And you will be added to the church Christ bought with His precious blood - Matthew 16.16-18; Acts 20.28; Romans 16.16
And the God of peace will guard your heart with the peace that surpasses all human understanding in Christ name, Amen.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/65551829Sat, 12 Apr 2025 21:21:17 +0000PreachifyYOU CAN HAVE PEACE WITH GOD What Is Peace?

It is mostly sung during or just after the serving of the Lord’s supper. Little did I know it was solely written to invite perishing souls to Christ.
In 1836, Charlotte Elliott wrote this song just after her conversation with an evangelist. She felt at that moment she was an invalid, discouraged and full of doubt. She wondered if she ever had anything to contribute so, she went to an evangelist and said; “what can I bring to God?” And the evangelist in his softest of tune said to Charlotte; “All you need to bring is YOURSELF!”
These words changed her thinking about her life, purpose and who she was before God. Thankfully, these words have changed so many lives and hearts today. Will you allow these words to have a change in your life today?
This song is divided into three simple points;
Just As I Am
O Lamb of God
I Come
May we open our Bibles to a profound account that portrays the truth of these words; Luke 5.12-17;
“While he was in one of the cities, there came a man full of leprosy. And when he saw Jesus, he fell on his face and begged him, “Lord, if you will, you can make me clean.” And Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, “I will; be clean.” And immediately the leprosy left him. And he charged him to tell no one, but “go and show yourself to the priest, and make an offering for your cleansing, as Moses commanded, for a proof to them.” But, now even more the report about him went abroad, and great crowds gathered to hear him and to be healed of their infirmities. But he would withdraw to desolate places and pray.”
When we come to the Lord, we all show up wherever we are with the things we carry — our baggage, our attitudes, habits, relationships — all the stuff of our lives. I brought a metaphorical backpack filled with good and bad desires and a past full of stories, some of which I was ashamed of. I came believing in Jesus, dying to myself, and rising from baptism without any more sin. But you know what followed me home? Some of those things that were in my backpack! Because I was a new man, but I was also the same guy as two minutes before. Before God, everything changed — I had no more guilt! I was a child of God! And yet, I had the same relationships and some of the same ways of thinking.
But I started a journey that day with Jesus, living honestly before him so that he could continue to work in me, help me, and change me as I sought him because we find what we seek. What are you pursuing? Make sure you’re seeking the right thing! If you want to change what you’re seeing, change what you’re seeking! I wish someone had told me years ago that you eventually start to find what you seek. If you hunger and thirst after righteousness, you’ll be satisfied.
Trying to get it together before coming to the Lord is like lighting a flashlight without a battery!
Just As I Am!
Luke stacks three stories together, lining them up next to each other like a triptych.
First, Jesus heals a leper — someone disgraced, diseased, and disassociated from the rest of his community (Luke 5:12-16). Then, before mending a lame man, he forgives him of his sins, helping us to see the greater need we all have for healing (Luke 5:17-28). Finally, he calls Levi, the tax collector, to follow him, completing the trio of outcasts and bringing us full circle from fixing a disease to bringing true restoration and wellness (Luke 5:27-30). These stories — the leper, the lame man, and Levi — move us from physical healing to a grand declaration about the spiritual healing we need at the end of the passage (Luke 5:31-32). There, we learn who qualifies for Christ’s salvation:
“Jesus answered, ‘It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance’” (Luke 5:31-32).
If you need Jesus (which you do!), you qualify for his rescue! He calls YOU to repent so he can heal you. A recent update on Charlotte Elliot’s classic hymn adds a new chorus.
“I come broken to be mended;
I come empty to be filled.
I come desperate to be rescued
I come empty to be filled
I come guilty to be pardoned
By the blood of Christ the Lamb
And I’m welcomed with open arms
Praise God, just as I am”
It’s a painful but ultimately healing truth to meditate upon and accept. We come to Christ broken and wounded (Jer. 31:12-13; Ps. 51:17). We come guilty, desperate, and empty (Jer. 30:14-15; Luke 5:27-32; 15:14-16). But praise God, that’s not the end of a Christian’s story.
As the song says, we come broken to be mended, not to wallow in brokenness.
O Lamb of God
Another classic hymn asks, “What can wash away my sins?” The first word of the hymn’s answer is “Nothing.” What a tragedy if we ended the chorus that way! Thankfully, that’s not the whole answer. Instead, we sing: “Nothing but the blood of Jesus.” Nothing else will do the job. But the sacrificial death of God’s perfect lamb, Jesus Christ, can cleanse and heal us (John 1:29).
Jesus invites us to come just as we are, but he loves us too much to leave us that way. As the song says, we come broken to be mended, not to wallow in brokenness. Find healing and wholeness in Him (Luke 5:12-26; Jer. 30:17,9; Isa. 53:5). He can rescue and fill you (Luke 5:27-32). He will pardon and welcome you (Luke 15:20-24)!
I Come
But none of that can happen until we come to him. Come believing you bids you to come and that he’s the One who heals. Come to Christ, trusting that his sacrifice is enough.
Come Repenting (Luke 5:32). We come as we are to become as He is. And come confessing Him (Matt. 10:34-35). Come to the Lord dying to yourself, buried in water, and rising in Him (Rom. 6:1-6).
Come and surrender all to Him daily (James 4:8-9). He will take you as you are, whoever and whatever you are, and you will be changed — day by day — as you walk with him.
“Just as I am, and waiting not
To rid my soul of one dark blot.”
Don’t wait. Come to Christ today.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/64947934Tue, 18 Mar 2025 04:50:08 +0000PreachifyJUST AS I AM!

Samson, the prophets were not around samson, the people that can wake you up, warn you, they were not around Samson. The nearest person, the most influential person around Samson was that, Delilah. Who is the most influential person in your life? Who is the closest person to you? Not even your wife, it’s that other Delilah. Your Delilah can be a he or she. Have you been able to identify that Delilah, the one you feel so comfortable to share your strength with, the one that will be sober because you refused to tell him/her the source of your progress. Look around you, check the circle you find yourself, check your contact list, the groups you belong to, and carefully identify who the Delilah is. As a married man, you think abandoning your family at home, not paying attention to their every needs, forsake your Bible at home and you are going everytime to that Delilah. As a young adult, no advice gets into your head the moment you sits with your Delilah of drunkenness, womanizing, prostitution, stealing, backbiting, and the likes. You will soon loose every kind of fire you ever had!
Please, come back! Come back!! Heed His call, accept His grace!!!
Come back to the Bible, come back to where you can find peace and preserve your strength and keep your fire burning. And the fire will start burning again.
So, this woman, Delilahs in the world, they are wicked. They can show love apparently and yet, they will ruin you and wreck you and arrange the people that will scrape off your hair, your strength, and zeal. When Delilah successfully scraped off Samson’s hair, she shouted, “wake up Samson, the Philistines are upon you!” and she knew that Samson’s strength has gone. His hair has been shaven. And samson woke up wanting to demonstrate power. Failing to realized that that strength is no more. Because the fire and spirit has left. May your zeal never grow dim.
Are you the Samson of your family, identify your Delilah.
Are you the Samson of your generation, identify your Delilah.
For Delilah is weakness, backwardness, and failure.
The moment you realized that you have been taken too far by that Delilah you have identify, all you need to do is you regret, that is not enough, remorse, that is not enough, repent and today come back to Him who says; “Behold, I stand at the door knocking, if anyone hears my voice and open, I will come in and dine with him” or are you thinking your sins can never be forgiven?

For most of the religious community, Christmas is celebrated
as the day of Jesus’ birth. We often see signs and other items
with phrases such as “Let’s keep Christ in Christmas ,” or
“Jesus is the reason for the season.”
What does the Bible have to say about Christmas? Should we
celebrate the birth of Jesus? What is the origin of Christmas?
These are some of the many questions we hope to answer in this
study.

WHAT IS THE ORIGIN OF CHRISTMAS?

History records that some celebrated Jesus’ birth as far back
as the 2nd century A.D., being noted in the reign of the Roman
emperor Commodus, who died in A.D. 180. During the reign of
Diocletian, (A.D. 284-305), a group of Christians had gathered
to celebrate the birth of Jesus in the city of Nicomedia.
Diocletian ordered the building doors sealed and then set fire
to the building, killing all those inside.

The
Catholic Bishop Liberious (circa A.D. 354) suggested the date
of December 25, not because of any special significance, but
because many parishioners were taking part in the pagan
holiday festival of Saturnalia, or the feast of the pagan god
Saturn. (Saturn was the god of agriculture.) This festival was
instituted by decree of Caesar Augustus and was celebrated
from December 17-23. It was reasoned that local church members
could continue to celebrate the pagan holiday under the guise
of celebrating the birth of Christ.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/63457736Tue, 24 Dec 2024 04:56:43 +0000PreachifyIS IT WRONG TO CELEBRATE CHRISTMAS?

These days I often see that we seldom sadden or identify murmuring as a sin, we forget that murmuring is ungrateful and we usually do it without realizing it.

Murmuring is the same as slandering, mumbling, speaking in a low voice, speaking ill of someone or something.

So I ask how many times have you mumble today, this morning?

The Nation of Israel did murmur for things that are of low esteem before God (Exodus 17.3), they murmured against His Prophet and priest(Numbers 14) and the response from God was not easy to bear 1 Corinthians 10.9-11; 5.

Murmuring has lead so many to their unnoticed destruction. Their disappointment and regrets.

We complain about so many things that we don’t even notice, because the more we complain, the more we will complain, but also the more we thank, the more we will be grateful.

In 1 Thessalonians it is written that we should always be grateful, because that is what God wants from those who are united to Christ.

Sometimes most people murmur against the preacher when he's taken a little longer in his sermon.

People murmur against the song leaders, prayer moderators and most times secretaries for longer announcement. We need to be careful lest, what befall the Israelites in the wilderness...

Don't be an obstacle to the worship of others through your murmuring. Be grateful for being saved as a Christian. Moreover, it's the Lord's day and we are to give Him our all in service.

We may not realize it, but murmuring takes us away from God, because when we murmur we cannot see everything he has done in our lives. Our Lord is faithful to us and does not rejoice in ingratitude, being grateful is an act of worship and that shows confidence in God. Let us be thankful for the things we can see and have rather than murmuring for what is not there:

We have a roof over our heads

We have food, clothing and water

Good health

Businesses and jobs

We have Christ, the church and brethren

We have the Bible

We have our families

Just continue with the list

Indeed, as the song rightly says; WHEN I THINK OF THE GOODNESS OF JESUS AND ALL HE HAS DONE FOR ME, MY VERY SOUL SHALL SHOUT HALLELUJAH, PRAISE GOD FOR SAVING ME!

CONCLUSION: Philippians 2.14
May the LORD help us to be thankful everyday of our lives in Christ name, Amen!]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/60623226Sun, 07 Jul 2024 05:36:48 +0000PreachifyDO YOU GIVE THANKS OR MURMUR?

Luke 10.38-42

When we choose to listen to the Lord, we take the best path. Spending our time at the feet of Christ is the best choice, and nothing else matters when we have this closeness to Him.

In Luke 10, we see God clearly express this truth to Martha and Mary. Hear the following!

“As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him. She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to what he said.” Luke 10:38-39

Mary left behind everything that had to be done in the house, as she knew what a great opportunity it was to have Jesus there with them. They could hear the Master, face to face, sitting with them. But in our own situation, we don’t encounter Jesus in the flesh, like they did, but we have Him with us every day and at all times. He lives in our hearts, and we can talk to Him at any time of the day.

The Lord knocks on the door to sit with us too and invites us to be at His feet, listening to everything He has to teach.

All of the teachings that Mary was receiving from Jesus, all of His words spoken to her, none of that would be taken away from Mary because she chose to listen to the Lord.

DON’T BE DISTRACTED!

“But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, ‘Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!”. Luke 10:40
Martha, unlike Mary, did not leave everything to listen to the Lord.

I don’t want to say anything bad about Martha here, but I want to make you think about how many times you were distracted by people around you. When you were at the feet of Jesus, worshiping and listening to His voice, but another person or situation stole your attention with things that soon pass.

On the other hand, how many times have you acted like Martha? So distracted by things around you that you didn’t notice the presence of the Son of God? Or even, sometimes, also distracting those next to you? Especially, during worship hours, devotions and special moments with Christ.

The house would later get dirty again, the mess could happen again, but that visit was important, and it could be the last time it happened face to face in their home. Don’t miss the opportunity to enjoy the presence of Jesus.

HE IS HERE!

“Martha, Martha,’ the Lord answered, ‘you are worried and upset about many things, but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.” Luke 10:41-42

When Martha questions Jesus and asks for Mary’s help in organizing the house, Jesus points to the best choice: being in His presence.
Nothing else matters when He is present. Our status, degrees, professions, skills, brilliance, and positions don't matter when Christ is involved.

Every day, we are covered with so many worries that we miss the presence of God. HE IS HERE! And we can feel Him when we seek Him. But we are too busy with our jobs, studies, home, friends, spouse, family... taking away our attention from the Lord.

We need to leave everything for His sake, understanding that when He is there, He cleans, organizes, renews, and transforms. We don’t need to worry about fluffing the pillow if He is in the middle of the room with open arms to welcome us.

May we not miss the opportunity to truly live in Christ, in relationship and depth of His love, Amen!

Psalm 71:9-14, Proverbs 20:29

As we grow older, our lives undergo significant changes. Our bodies may not be as strong as they once were, our energy levels may wane, and our roles in life may shift. But despite these changes, our worth and purpose remain unchanged. In fact, as we grow older, we have the opportunity to grow wiser, more compassionate, and more grace-filled.

In Psalm 71, the psalmist writes, "Do not cast me away when I am old; do not forsake me when my strength is gone" (v. 9). This prayer acknowledges the natural decline that comes with aging, but also expresses a deep trust in God's continued presence and care.

In Proverbs 20:29, we read, "The glory of the young is their strength, but the gray hair of experience is the splendor of the old." This verse reminds us that age brings its own unique beauty and dignity. Our experiences, our wisdom, and our character are refined and polished over time, making us more radiant and more lovely in God's sight.

What happens when we grow older?

We will start getting weak
What we used to do before, we will not have that time nor strength
Our health will be fading away
Diverse challenges will come with old age
Restrictions as per our diets will surface.

What have you done with your youthful days?


As we grow older, may we embrace the opportunities to:

- Share our wisdom and experience with others
- Pray for and support those around us
- Trust in God's continued guidance and care
- Find joy and contentment in our present season
- Grow in grace and compassion, becoming more like Christ

May God bless us as we grow older, and may we honor Him in every stage of our lives.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/59721659Tue, 30 Apr 2024 03:51:09 +0000Preachify"As We Grow Older": Psalm 71:9-14, Proverbs 20:29 As we grow older, our lives undergo significant changes.

Text: James 4:13-15

"Come now, you who say, 'Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit'; whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away. Instead, you ought to say, 'If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that'."

James is addressing the tendency to presume upon the future, forgetting that our lives are but a brief, fleeting moment. He reminds us that:

1. Our plans and control are illusions (Proverbs 16:9; 19:21)
2. Life is uncertain and transitory (Psalm 39:5; 1 Peter 1:24)
3. God's sovereignty and will are the only constants (Isaiah 46:10; Matthew 10:29-30)

James encourages us to:

1. Humble ourselves and acknowledge God's control
2. Submit our plans to His will (Matthew 6:10; 1 John 2:17)
3. Live with gratitude and dependence on Him

May we embrace the uncertainty of life with faith in the certainty of God's love and guidance.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/59692805Mon, 29 Apr 2024 03:58:11 +0000Preachify"The Uncertainty of Life" Text: James 4:13-15 "Come now, you who say, 'Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit'; whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow.

Text: John 17:3

In John 17:3, Jesus defines eternal life in a way that might surprise us. He says, "This is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent." According to Jesus, eternal life is not just about living forever; it's about knowing God.

Eternal life is not just a quantity of years, but a quality of relationship. It's not just about existing forever, but about living in intimate connection with our Creator. Jesus says that knowing God and knowing himself is the very essence of eternal life.

But what does it mean to know God? It means to experience His love, His grace, and His presence in our lives. It means to trust in His goodness, His wisdom, and His power. It means to seek Him with all our hearts, to listen for His voice, and to follow His guidance.

As we walk with God, we begin to see the world through His eyes. We see the beauty of creation, the value of every human life, and the hope of redemption. We see the depth of our own sin and the breadth of His mercy. We see the temporary nature of this life and the eternal nature of the next.

And as we know God, we begin to experience eternal life. We taste the joy of heaven, the peace of His presence, and the freedom of forgiveness. We find purpose in our lives, meaning in our struggles, and hope in our darkness.

So let us seek to know God, to love Him with all our hearts, and to live in His presence. Let us embrace eternal life, not just as a future destination, but as a present reality. For in knowing God, we find the very essence of eternal life.

May the Lord help us to seek Him earnestly to know Him better in Christ name, Amen.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/59680572Sun, 28 Apr 2024 04:20:25 +0000Preachify"This is Eternal Life" Text: John 17:3 In John 17:3, Jesus defines eternal life in a way that might surprise us.

Oftentimes, many of us have been asked this question whenever we return from a trip, be it a long or short trip.

Some of the times we do our best to present something presentable to those we are meeting either for the first time or those we just can't stop giving.

However, we are posed with same question concerning our relationship with the Savior who sought and bought us even while we were still helpless and sinners (Romans 5.6,8), dead in our trespasses (Ephesians 2.1-2), "What have you brought for the Lord? (Acts 6.9).

A lot of times we do sang these pledging and thoughtful songs in worship, but then how often do we internalize the messages? (1 Corinthians 14.15).

I want to believe that it was the Lord himself, using it as a reminder to help us allow this song to resonates in us His precious sacrifice.

He gave His all for us. He died that we might live.

He took and accepted the shame and hate made for us, the chastisements and cruelty, so that we can be loved.

He received our stripes and reproach on His body so that we will be healed and made whole.

Why not choose to bring your all, body, soul and spirit to Jesus Christ this moment just as you are.

Jesus gave His all for you (Mark 10.45), some brought back shame and re-crucifixion through their conducts.

"He gave His all for me, what have I given to Him?"

"He brought everything for me, what have I brought to Him?" Not a soul, not a transformation.

Revelation 14.12-13

Death according to nature is inevitable. Everyone as the scripture says were all made from the dust and to the dust everyone shall return. Although, in the entire history of mankind, it has been recorded that only two men did not die, Enoch and Elijah.

Death is the termination of breath from the human body, the extraction of the spirit which gives life and direction to the human body back to its maker "all go to one place. All are from the dust, and to dust all shall return" (Eccl. 3.20).

But it becomes so funny to see people who are not certain about their tomorrow praying for others who are gullible and afraid that they will not die. Revelation is an interesting scripture that depicts the essence of Christianity with its rewards. But then, it appears to be one of the most scary scriptures to study because of its imagery messages from the spiritual to the physical.

To begin with, Revelation 14.12-13 tells us about the saints who have labored for the cause of the gospel, whose blood were spilled all over the earth. Verse 12 speaks of the patience of these saints. Who then are these people?
The scripture says they are people;
Washed by the blood of the Lamb Rev. 1.5
Who endured all the pains - Romans 8.18
Who were faithful with their works - Rev. 14.13
Who will inherit the eternal rest - Rev. 2.10

How did they reach these above listed blessings?

The saints became saints;
Through the new birth - Romans 6.4
By staying in the straight path with obedience to the word of the LORD
By faith in the LORD - Hebrews 11.38

On the whole, this is an urgent matter that needs careful thought as we journey in this world. One of the most important questions we need to ask ourselves is; "What if...?"
"Will I make it...?"
For the scripture says that it is appointed for you and I to die once and after that is judgment (Hebrews 9.27).
What will become of you when you die?
Will you be counted among the blessed who are sleeping in the LORD and will inherit the eternal rest (Hebrews 4.9)?
How about putting your best to come before His Presence Just As You Are if you are thinking you're not gonna make. But if you know, that you are not going to make it to heaven with Christ either by death or ascension, why not make sure this moment by visiting the Church of Christ nigh you or call 07060510595 for further information.

May the LORD help us to live for Him, be patient as those who have gone on before us. Amen!]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/58720398Sun, 18 Feb 2024 05:15:40 +0000PreachifyBLESSED ARE THOSE WHO DIED IN LORD. Revelation 14.12-13 Death according to nature is inevitable.

Mark 5.25-34

At some point in our lives, sickness affects us. We may not “be sick” physically, but accountable individuals “get sick” spiritually. The source of spiritual healing is God: have we been “healed”?

1. “Sickness” Takes A Toll On Man. Hospitals are constantly being used to treat those who are sick. The woman in Mark 5:25-34 had suffered for twelve years and continued to get worse.

a) “Spiritual sickness” is by far worse than even the ailment of the woman.

b) Ultimately, the pleasures of sin will given over to the realization of our souls' condemnation (Heb. 11:25; Rom. 6:23).

c) Sin will “cost” more than man will want to “pay” (cf. Cain-Gen. 4:13-14 and Saul-1 Sam. 15:24-29).

2. Healing Is Found In The Lord. The woman trusted so much that she could be healed by the Lord (Mark 5:27-28). Likewise, we should trust that we can be “spiritually healed” by the Lord (John 8:24; 14:6; Acts 4:12). Ultimately, our trust in the Lord should lead us to obey the Gospel (Rom. 1:16; Heb. 5:9).

3. Once “Healed”, Man Can Be At Peace. The woman, who had suffered so long, was now able to have peace (Mark 5:29-34). We, no matter how long we have suffered spiritually, can have peace (Phil. 4:7; 1 John 1:6-7; 5:13; cf. John 14:27).

CONCLUSION
We need not to remain “spiritually sick”! “Healing” awaits those who will obey the voice of the LORD.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/58644334Sun, 11 Feb 2024 05:55:44 +0000PreachifySPIRITUAL HEALING Mark 5.25-34 At some point in our lives, sickness affects us.

a) “Spiritual sickness” is by far worse than even the ailment of the woman.

b) Ultimately, the pleasures of sin will given over to the realization of our souls' condemnation (Heb. 11:25; Rom. 6:23).

c) Sin will “cost” more than man will want to “pay” (cf. Cain-Gen. 4:13-14 and Saul-1 Sam. 15:24-29).

2. Healing Is Found In The Lord. The woman trusted so much that she could be healed by the Lord (Mark 5:27-28). Likewise, we should trust that we can be “spiritually healed” by the Lord (John 8:24; 14:6; Acts 4:12). Ultimately, our trust in the Lord should lead us to obey the Gospel (Rom. 1:16; Heb. 5:9).

3. Once “Healed”, Man Can Be At Peace. The woman, who had suffered so long, was now able to have peace (Mark 5:29-34). We, no matter how long we have suffered spiritually, can have peace (Phil. 4:7; 1 John 1:6-7; 5:13; cf. John 14:27).

CONCLUSION
We need not to remain “spiritually sick”! “Healing” awaits those who will obey the voice of the LORD.]]>781falsefullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/this-is-a-gospel-publication-presented-to-you-by-the-preachify-daily-devotional-to-god-be-all-the-glory-amen--58632353

“Be to me a rock of refuge, to which I may continually come; you have given the command to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress” (Ps. 71:3).


The Christian songs in worship are designed to instruct as well as praise... For in them we teach and admonish one another. By them the Word of Christ can dwell in us richly - Co 3:16.

A familiar song with an important message is "Rock of Ages”
In “Songs of The Church”, it is song #445

Certainly the children of God are to take refuge in God in such a time like this.

Like most of the metaphors applied to God in Scripture, the idea that our Creator is a rock is multifaceted in its meaning.

In addition to informing us of the Lord’s stable, unchanging nature (Deut. 32:4), it also tells us about His strength and ability to safeguard His people, much as stone fortifications provide an excellent refuge from the elements and other dangers.

This, in fact, is how the metaphor of God as a rock is used in today’s passage.

Psalm 71, is an expression of confidence in the ability of our Creator to rescue His people according to the standard of His own righteousness (v. 2).

Because the Lord is true to His promises, He must ultimately save His children from all their enemies (Ex. 23:27; Ps. 41:1–2). Certainly, God often intervenes on our behalf to deliver us from our foes when we fail to ask for His assistance, but that does not mean we should take His protection for granted or believe that we need not go before Him in prayer to ask for His help. He delights to hear us confess our reliance on His mighty hand.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/57189283Wed, 11 Oct 2023 05:05:24 +0000PreachifyROCK OF AGES “Be to me a rock of refuge, to which I may continually come; you have given the command to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress” (Ps. 71:3).

Even at this point in many of our lives we have driven ourselves away from God.
Currently, in the world we find ourselves where a lot of things are welcomed, most especially to destroy us with its pleasures and pain, there is a need for us to stand up from our ashes and realized how far we've come alone.

The narrative of the prodigal son illustrates timelessly of the infinite Love of God for mankind despite their evil ways and poor decisions that always, in most cases, leads to destruction.

He rose up one morning and felt like it was a fine time for him to explore and this couldn't be done without taking his own share of his father's wealth.

Nevertheless, he quickly realized how stupid and shortsighted his decision was to leave the splendor in his father's house thus, the need to come back home.

The pleasure and pressure of this world has caused so many especially, young adults to equally demands their freedom as possessions from God to get enslaved with the empty promises of the devil: the gods of this age, its power,fame and pleasures.

Check yourself and ponder on these questions;
1. Do I really understand the DECISIONS I have made?
2. What is the current state of my relationship with God?
3. Will I be accepted if I go back to Him?
4. What is the cost of Him receiving me again?

Christ says; "Come unto me and there's an assurance of rest, hope, peace, joy and a purpose for living."
Why not heed the call of the LORD and come back home to Him right away!?

Even at this point in many of our lives we have driven ourselves away from God.
Currently, in the world we find ourselves where a lot of things are welcomed, most especially to destroy us with its pleasures and pain, there is a need for us to stand up from our ashes and realized how far we've come alone.

The narrative of the prodigal son illustrates timelessly of the infinite Love of God for mankind despite their evil ways and poor decisions that always, in most cases, leads to destruction.

He rose up one morning and felt like it was a fine time for him to explore and this couldn't be done without taking his own share of his father's wealth. The father gave him the time, shares and whatever he requested...he joyfully, in his ignorance left to far away land to lavish all his possessions.

Nevertheless, he quickly realized how stupid and shortsighted his decision was to leave the splendor in his father's house thus, the need to come back home.

Philippians 3.10
“that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death,”

Sometime ago I presented a lesson, "Who is Jesus?" And we clearly see from scripture that Jesus is Christ, the Saviour, messiah, King, LORD and God etc.
He is the way and truth to the father — John 14.6
In Him is light and life
He is the head of His Church
He is our advocate and Judge.
So many things to know about this Jesus. But here is a question;
do you really know this Jesus?
Have you been transformed by His life?
Is your attitude demonstrating the LORD in His fullness?
Apostle Paul who once had an encounter with Christ, still longs for a perfect knowledge about this Jesus. We can't say that Paul knowledge about Christ was shallow, he didn't cried out for proper explanation, but he yerns for a deeper understanding of who Jesus is. Thus, Paul said; that he may know Him...
Why was Paul not contented with the knowledge he already had? There you go! Paul understood that having a deeper knowledge of Jesus Christ does the following;
1. Knowing Jesus changes our decision: In Acts 9, we see the swift turnaround on Paul's decision. He aimed at persecuting the body of Christ, that was is decision. Just to satisfy his evil urge believing, he's in the right. Little wonder to him that his decision was about to take a new look. He became an instrument of power for the growth of the kingdom.
What is your decision this morning?
Have you decided not to assemble with the saints in worship this morning, have you made up your mind to cause yourself trouble by engaging in an act not pleasing to God? Your decision too can be transformed by you knowing Jesus just as the apostle Paul did. Have you made up your mind not to talk with your neighbor, siblings and members of the Lord's Church, malice, grumbling etc. Yes it can still be change.
2. Knowing Jesus changes our actions:
3. Knowing Jesus changes our destiny.

The children of Israel had wandered in the wilderness for 40 years and it was up to Joshua to lead them into the promised land. He’d have to claim the land from its current inhabitants, fight and lead battles, and provide spiritual leadership for a large group of people. As he was feeling the overwhelming weight of the task before him, the Lord offered these words of encouragement:
“Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goes.”
Joshua 1:9

These comforting words can apply to all of us as we seek to live a good life and overcome our own unique challenges.

What does it mean to be strong?
Part of being strong and of a good courage means trusting in the Lord as our true source of strength. In Joshua’s case, he didn’t have all the answers for the challenges before him. But he was counseled to go forward anyway, acting in faith. Like Joshua, we seldom have all the answers to our personal challenges. But God promises that when we turn to Him for guidance, we will succeed. God is all-powerful and all-knowing. He has the answers and the strength we need to face any challenge before us. He was with Joshua, and He will be with us.

How can we be strong and of a good courage?
Being strong and courageous usually doesn’t require any grand gestures. More often, it’s made up of small decisions we make every day that show our trust in God. As we prayerfully seek His direction, study His word, and follow His example each day, we will have the courage to let go of fear and face our challenges with faith.

Exodus 2.23-25

A beautiful historical account to remind us again about how precious we are to God. The situation of the Nation of Israel in the land of Egypt raised up to God as a petition, they were compelled by pharaoh to make bricks without straw. It was an affliction on the Children of Israel.
At this point, to whom would they run to?
Affliction is a persistent pain and great suffering (Miriam Webster). The Children of Israel had no political godfather to run to, no military general to fight for them, no judge to attend to their case but then, little did they know that their SIGHING ascended as a petition.
The scripture says; "So God heard their groaning and REMEMBERED His Covenant... with Abraham..."

Are you weary and heavy hearted with the way things are going?
Have you been asked to make bricks without straw?
Are you being afflicted with the challenges of:
1. Childbearing?
2. Suitable life partner?
3. Unemployment?
4. The flesh?
5. Finance and turbulent marital homes?
6. Health
etc.

Exodus 2.23-25

A beautiful historical account to remind us again about how precious we are to God. The situation of the Nation of Israel in the land of Egypt raised up to God as a petition, they were compelled by pharaoh to make bricks without straw. It was an affliction on the Children of Israel.
At this point, to whom would they run to?
Affliction is a persistent pain and great suffering (Miriam Webster). The Children of Israel had no political godfather to run to, no military general to fight for them, no judge to attend to their case but then, little did they know that their SIGHING ascended as a petition.
The scripture says; "So God heard their groaning and REMEMBERED His Covenant... with Abraham..."

Are you weary and heavy hearted with the way things are going?
Have you been asked to make bricks without straw?
Are you being afflicted with the challenges of:
1. Childbearing?
2. Suitable life partner?
3. Unemployment?
4. The flesh?
5. Finance and turbulent marital homes?
6. Health
etc.
God always pay attention to us but, we just need a little more patience to give God access to our problems. Let Him fix it.
Whatever your groaning may be today, I pray for you, may you and your household be remembered by God.
To those who are yet to be part of the kingdom of Christ, Jesus is standing, waiting patiently for you to come close for He is waiting.]]>895falsefullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/preachify-daily-devotion--56761323

In our old classic song, we are told some of the things we must do to overcome the times.
In times like these, we need;

An anchor (Hebrews 6:18-20). An anchor give stability to a ship during a stormy weather. Anchor your faith in Christ and his word.

In times like these, we need the help of our saviour.
In life, we need either a divine helper or human helper in times of crisis (Psalm 119:147). We need to seek God in these PERILIOUS times.

In times like these, we need to fight the fight of faith (1 Timothy 6:12; Hebrews 6:11,12; 2 Kings. 4:8-37).

In times like these, we need to be rooted in the Word of God. We must learn to draw comfort from the word of God in times of adversity ( Psalm 119:50,143). Don’t just read the word, meditate on the text and recites them in prayers ( Psalm 27:13,14).

In times like these, we need to stand on the promises of God. The third stanza of the popular hymn, “Stand up stand up for Jesus, YE soldiers of the Cross…” reads thus: “Stand up! Stand up for Jesus!, stand in his strength alone, the arm of flesh will fail you – YE dare not trust your own. Put on the gospel armour, And, watching unto prayer, where duty calls, or danger, be never wanting there.”

We need to persevere in faith in times like these. Child of God, don’t give up, you are at the brink of a miracle. In Ephesians 6:10-13, Paul enjoins us to be strong in the Lord. Then in verse 13, he gives this command, “Therefore take up the whole armour of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.”

We need to constantly renew our strength in the Lord in times like these (Proverbs 24:20; Psalm 84:5-7). Only the weak fail in times of adversity. Those who renew their strength daily in God overcome hard times.

We need to hold fast the confession of our faith (Hebrews 10:23). Stop confessing negative ideas. Words are powerful in the realm of the Spirit. God created this material word with words. Confess the word of God. Confess the picture of hope God has created in your heart and what you find in the word of God.

Times like these, we need to pray like we never did. In the old hymn, “Christian seek not yet repose…”, the last stanza of that hymn reads, “Watch, as if on that alone, hung the issue of the day, pray, that help may be sent down, watch and pray.”

Desperate times calls for desperate prayers. The cold, lukewarm and stale kind of prayers cannot see us through the present times. We need more fervency, more determination and persistent faith in our prayers. May we seek for God in these PERILIOUS times and may we walk with him.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/56551508Tue, 22 Aug 2023 05:03:07 +0000PreachifyWHAT DO WE NEED TO DO IN TIMES LIKE THESE?

If anyone of us will be told when we were little that a time will come, when the economic, security, health and educational atmosphere in Nigeria and in extension, some parts of the world, will be acidic as this, who among us would have believed? We are now living in a society where the strong gets stronger everyday and survive while the weak on the other hand, is always on his knees begging for his right. A time where you can't walk freely, a time when you return from your outing and start thinking about the uncertainty of tomorrow. Truly, these are PERILIOUS times!
These are extraordinary times. A time when you will be praying for the things that has gone up, skyrocketed to remain where they are if they will not move. Health sectors are failing, our educational system is no where to be discussed.
The Bible describes these times as:
A time of trouble. There is trouble every where in the world
A time of adversity. Daily we are confronted with adversities.
A time of distress and uncertainty. These are times of great stress and uncertain.
A time of political and economic changes that have brought hardship on people.
A time of severe violence, terrorism, conflicts everywhere.
A time of famine and hunger in nations and in the world.
A time of unemployment. Many of the youths are unemployed.
A time of low economic activity, many workers are hardly paid their salaries regularly.
A time of business’s failure, devaluation and inflation.
A time of fear, worry, anxiety, suffering.
A time of low global oil price which has affected the economy of nations so severely
Conversely, it is also true that for many these times are a time of limitless opportunities. A time of creativity. A time to invest. A time to work harder than before. A time for strategic thinking. A time to sow seeds in strategic ways. Most certainly, God is not indifferent and aloof in times like these. Like God did to JOSEPH and Daniel, He is busy positioning his favored one in strategic positions in difficult times as these.

In moments of despair, we might ask why we are chosen to endure hardships. But let us not forget that even the strongest trees face storms, and from their trials, they grow deeper roots. Similarly, our challenges help us grow stronger and wiser.

When we ask "Why me?" let's also consider the blessings that surround us. In times of difficulty, we can find unexpected sources of support and love from family, friends, and even strangers. These moments remind us that we are never alone on this journey.

Our faith teaches us that there is a purpose for everything under the sun. The struggles we face are opportunities for us to learn, to show resilience, and to develop empathy for others facing similar trials. Through our experiences, we can become beacons of hope and inspiration for those around us.

Today, we gather to reflect upon the question that resonates deeply within each one of us: "Where do I stand with God?" This inquiry is not one to be taken lightly, for it digs deep into the core of our spiritual journey and relationship with the God.

In our fast-paced and often chaotic lives, it is easy to lose sight of our connection with God. We get caught up in worldly pursuits, consumed by material desires, and burdened by the trials and tribulations of life. Yet, amidst the chaos, we must pause and turn our hearts towards the source of all existence – God.

To understand where we stand with God, we must first recognize the significance of self-awareness.

Have you been helping the helpless and cheering the fainting?

Having you been loving, forgiving, tender and kind?

Have you been glorifying God in your live with abundant Thanksgivings and unceasing prayers?

This was the second question asked by our Lord Jesus Christ. Knowing the value of your soul, He is still asking you, WHAT IS IT THAT YOU CAN EQUATE TO YOUR SOUL??
A. The word “exchange” pictures a business transaction in which one is bartering for something else. “Barter” means “to trade or exchange one commodity for another.” Thus, it means to trade your soul for something else.
B. Things for which people trade their souls.
(a) Some people have traded their souls for earthly riches and fame – things which are corruptible and can be stolen (Matt. 6:19-21).
(b) For some, it is the fleshly pleasures of sin. Examples include sexual immoralities, drunkenness, etc.
(c) Some allow their souls to be sold into slavery of false doctrine and unbelief. Paul warns that we should beware! (Col. 2: 8,18). See also 2 Cor. 11:13-15 (NIV). Only the truth shall set such a soul free (John 8:32).

CONCLUSION
How valuable is your soul? Are you prepared for eternity? Have you given your life to Christ? Tomorrow might be too late.
If you have been baptized, are you living right? Are you sure to make heaven? The bible says you can be sure because someone else was sure (2 Tim. 4:7-8).
If you succeed in things of this world and fail to save your soul, then you have been a miserable failure. But if you fail in material things of this world but save your soul, your life would have been a marvellous success.

“For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?” Matthew 16: 26

(a) Man is a multi-dimensional being – body, soul and spirit (1 Thess. 5:23). The physical body is the dwelling place of the God-created spirit. It is the spirit of man that illuminates the soul, which is the emotional and intellectual part of man. Man is thus spiritual in the sense of possessing both spirit and soul. He is physical in that the real person is resident in a physical body that is of the dust of the earth (Eccl. 12: 7).
(b) Oftentimes, man tends to spend more time pampering the body that has limited earthly life and neglect the soul which is made in the image of God and will continue living after this earthly life.
(c) Jesus said that the soul is worth more than the rest of the world put together. He asked: “What will it profit a man if he will gain the whole world and lose his own soul?” (Matt. 16:26; Mark 8:36).

OUR SAVIOUR ASKED THESE QUESTIONS OVER 2,000 YEARS AGO – NEVER BEEN ANSWERED.

It is a two part question:
(a) “For what will it profit a man if he will gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?” Or,
(b) “What will a man give in exchange for his soul?”
Christ is simply teaching that it is a foolish bargain if we should try to exchange our souls for the world. Therefore we need to recognise the value of our souls.

WHY IS THE SOUL OF MAN SO VALUABLE

1. The value of a soul is measured by the source from which it originates.
(a) Man was made in the image of God (Gen. 1:26-27; 2:7).
(b) Yet God does not have a physical body like ours (John 4:24; Luke 24:39).
(c) Therefore it must be our soul or spirit that is in God’s image.
(d) It is that part of you that possess wisdom, intellect, emotion and will – just like God. That makes man different from animals.

2. The value of the soul is measured by its eternal quality
(a) The soul will never die, it will live forever.
(b) The body soon dies and returns to the dust where it originated, while the soul returns to God who gave it (Eccl. 12:7).
(c) It is the soul that will stand in judgment when the body resurrects in a new form (Heb. 9:27; 2 Cor. 5:10).
(d) The soul in its resurrected body will bear the brunt of the judgement either in heaven or in hell (Rom. 2:7-9).
3. The value of the soul is measured by the devil’s interest in it.
The devil is greatly at work in our world, and he is after our souls. He is walking around like a wounded lion (1 Pet. 5:8).
4. The value of the soul is measured by God’s concern for saving it.
God is very passionate about our souls.
(a) He is “not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance” (2 Pet. 3:9).
(b) “God demonstrated His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us” (Rom. 5:8).
(c) God sees man’s soul as the most valuable thing in the whole world, which is why He sent His son to redeem it. So what will it profit a man…? (Mk. 8:36).

5. The value of the soul is measured by the price paid for its redemption.
(a) The Bible says “knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold… but with the precious blood of Christ” (1 Pet. 1:18-19).
(b) What are you doing with your soul? Are you gambling with it or just taking a change with it?]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/56279010Sat, 29 Jul 2023 05:42:56 +0000PreachifyTHE VALUE OF A SOUL “For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?

Time is collapsing on us. How brief is time? The Scripture says, “You have made my days as handbreadths, and my age is as nothing before You” (Psalm 39:5). If I live to be a hundred years of age, that’s nothing in eternity.

The Scripture says, “For a thousand years in Your sight are like yesterday when it is past, and like a watch in the night” (Psalm 90:4). A watch in the night was four hours, that’s all. One day with the Lord is as a thousand years, and a thousand years is as one day. The Bible says, “My days are like a shadow that lengthens, and I wither away like grass. But You, O Lord, shall endure forever, and the remembrance of Your name to all generations” (Psalm 102:11-12).

Each of us has the same amount of time in every day—1,440 minutes a day, 168 hours a week. “The days of our lives are seventy years; and if by reason of strength they are eighty years, yet their boast is only labor and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away” (Psalm 90:10).

Time calls for immediate action. “Now is the accepted time; today is the day of salvation.” Every time your clock ticks, it’s saying, “Now, now, now, now, now, now, now.”
