THE POWER UNTO SALVATION
1 Corinthians 1:17-31

Man can never know God by rational thinking or by calculations of the brain. The so called learned and enlightened that have tried to analyse and explain God by logic ended up with meaningless theories and arguments.
Our passage today questions therefore, “Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom did not know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who believe.”

The world may trivialise or disdain the gospel. But you and I know that the Gospel is “...The power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth.” It is our duty to go for these disputers and bring them to have a taste of the goodness of the Lord. Never make the mistake of thinking that any one has gone too far in sin that they cannot be drawn to the Lord. Again, never consider anyone too rich, too comfortable or too sophisticated to be reached out to with the word of God.
You will be surprised to find out when you make the move that the “bigger” people also have bigger burdens that have robbed them of sleep and kept them searching for help.
If you truly believe that God’s word is powerful, take the Good News to all and sundry. You are the angel God will send to certain persons. If you fail to reach them, they will perish and God will hold you accountable.

Pray that converts will mature quickly into disciples and sons – playing effective roles in God’s kingdom.
Pray that the church will embrace evangelism and church growth with a sense of urgency

CONFESSION: Lord, I surrender afresh my spirit, soul and body to you. Use me any way you choose.

THEME: You Can Create Whatever You Desire John 16:21-27 The instrument with which you exercise dominion over creation is your mouth.You can create whatsoever you desire by speaking that thing into existence.Whatever you say begins to exist in the spiritual form.Jesus said in John 6:63,"The words that I speak unto you,they are spirit,and they are life". In like manner,you create whatever you say and the things begin to exist in the spiritual form.What you create through words also have life and they continue to live until they find physical expression. This is exactly what happens when you pray.The things you declare in prayer come alive and begin to exist in their spiritual form.They remain in that spiritual form until they are converted to their tangible equivalent through work. Jesus said,"until now you have asked nothing in My name.Ask,and you will receive,that your joy may be full" (John 16:24). Don't make the mistake of relaxing after you have pray...

You Must Forgive Yourself Hebrews 12:1-11 You have heard quite a lot about forgiving those that have offended you – and that you must do. It happens often that the person you must really forgive is yourself. You may have committed an offence or a sin and your conscience has condemned you, just as the Holy Spirit has chastised you. You may also have repented of this sin, confessed it to God and resolved not to go back that way. But you discover that the heaviness, clouded vision, and the erosion of confidence occasioned by the sin you committed continue to weigh you down. At such moments, you need to make another type of confession to God in order to regain your liberty from the weight that holds you down. You have to confess your unbelief in His word that says, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9). When you have genuinely repented of a sin and confessed it to God; and you have pleaded ...

Block All The Leakages

“In order that Satan might not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes” 2 Corinthians 2:11. It is difficult to gather up resources for any productive use, or to assume control of one’s finances if leakages are not identified and blocked. Leakages are channels through which resources or money is been drained, either knowingly or unknowingly. They are instruments employed by the devil to wreck one’s destiny and finances. Thus, whatever drains your resources is never from God (John 10:10). Leakages have both spiritual and physical dimensions. One can experience leakage if one is under a curse-not giving God His dues in the form of tithe; if you have flair for life’s frivolities; if you commit sin; if you constantly experience physical or spiritual robberies; if you are involved in gambling; when there is an illegal access to your secrets or bank accounts; and when you are perpetually under demonic attack of sickness; when you invest heavily in a business you do not know an...
