Romans 12:1 “ Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship.” Our bodies are in persecution because we lost love, but Jesus came so that we may be healed. Psalm 103:3-4 “ who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, 4  who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion,” Why God forgives you? It is because He loves you and through that forgiveness there is healing. If you are under judgement, your body will be under every kind of persecutions even death before your time, therefore God has sent His love to us so that we may be redeemed. We lost His love after sin and became under persecution, but Jesus came to restore that love for us to be healed. Do not say you love God if you have not given out your body to Him.  Yes you believe Him but there is no love. The character of love is giving,

Genesis 18:14 “ Is anything too hard for the Lord? I will return to you at the appointed time next year, and Sarah will have a son.” It may be hard to you but not to God.   It may be hard but not impossible, Trust God. God’s promise to Abraham and Sara came to pass when Abraham was 100 years old and Sara was 90 years old. Sara already passed the age of conception, so it was not easy for her to get a baby, as it was over. No matter how hard it is, don’t say it is impossible. See possibilities even in impossible situations. The devil can create hard environment but God will make a way out.   Take your eyes out from the impossible and look at the possibilities. Let your eyes see the possibilities.  When you see the possibilities it is easy for you to get what you want. If everything is easy to you, you won’t need God. We need Him because the life we are in is limited and we have limitations, so we need the one who has no limitation. Your limitation depends on the purp

Job 33: 14-20 “ For God does speak—now one way, now another—though no one perceives it. 15  In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falls on people as they slumber in their beds, 16  he may speak in their ears and terrify them with warnings, 17  to turn them from wrongdoing and keep them from pride, 18  to preserve them from the pit, their lives from perishing by the sword. [ a ] 19  “Or someone may be chastened on a bed of pain with constant distress in their bones, 20  so that their body finds food repulsive and their soul loathes the choicest meal ” Verse 27- 28 “ And they will go to others and say, ‘I have sinned, I have perverted what is right, but I did not get what I deserved. 28  God has delivered me from going down to the pit, and I shall live to enjoy the light of life.’”. It is not the problem of God, but the problem of man on how he perceives and considers when God speaketh. When you sleep and dream make sure you consider what you have dream

Deuteronomy 8:11- 15 “ Be careful that you do not forget the Lord your God, failing to observe his commands, his laws and his decrees that I am giving you this day.  12  Otherwise, when you eat and are satisfied, when you build fine houses and settle down,  13  and when your herds and flocks grow large and your silver and gold increase and all you have is multiplied,  14  then your heart will become proud and you will forget the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.  15  He led you through the vast and dreadful wilderness, that thirsty and waterless land, with its venomous snakes and scorpions. He brought you water out of hard rock.” God told Moses to remind Israelites not to forget because devil uses that weakness of human to do the following: Weaken us   Punish us Forgetting is a state of losing. When you remember you have power to gain. People with high capacity of remembrance are always winning in all aspects, school, business, m

Psalm 91:1-13 “ Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. [ a ] 2  I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” 3  Surely he will save you from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart. 5  You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day, 6  nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday. 7  A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you. 8  You will only observe with your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked. 9  If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling, 10  no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent. 11  For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; 12  th

Life can seem to be cruel to some people and sometimes bad breaks can happen to someone, and he or she may not like that thing and may not be convinced that it can happen to him/her. The fact is, we have limited amount of vision to why some things happens and what you need is to concentrate on what you have to be when both bad and good things happen to you for they happen to anybody. The encouragement to you is that what lies ahead may be better that anything you might have thought of, but it is up to you to get up and show up. Tears cannot do you any better. The moment you are in is up to you and your Maker and not what is happening. You can be so good but in the bible we have seen many stories of good people to whom bad things happened to them. It may not be fair that you are not born into an easy life, but if that is your life reality you have to work over it. You may stumble at the beginning and people may have doubt on what you are doing, but just focus. All of us

Psalms 118:1-7 “ Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever....... When hard pressed, I cried to the Lord; he brought me into a spacious place. 6  The Lord is with me; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me? 7  The Lord is with me; he is my helper. I look in triumph on my enemies.” They have searched for you in all ways but you are still alive because your Redeemer is alive! This year is your year of identification. Everyone should know that he/she is from God regardless of where you are coming from. You are here on earth for God’s kingdom. Anyone who is recognized in the world today, has started somewhere, and aimed to get higher. For spiritual people to be recognized there must be things to be done. Who is identified? The identified person is only who is born again and does the will of God. Everyone in church will be identified by God according to what God has installed in him/her which is different from other people. You
