SEEK IN THE RIGHT PLACES.

SEEK IN THE RIGHT PLACES.

Scriptural Highlight: (Luke 24:5-6 KJV) - "And they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek ye the living among the dead? He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spake unto you when he was yet in Galilee,"

When Jesus was with His disciples before His crucification, He spoke of His death. He also spoke of His resurrection from the dead on the third day. But when the prophecy came to fulfillment, the disciples seemed to be lagging behind. These women religiously came to do their good work of anointing Jesus' body. They hoped to find His dead body, when the tide had already turned. The other day it was ok; but this day, no; they were lagging behind prophecy. They are now seeking the living among the dead. He has risen and has no more business with the grave.
The angels had to remind them the words of Jesus again, how Jesus spoke to them of His resurrection when He was yet in Galilee. Beloved, isn't it  true that sometimes God's words will come to us over certain situations and yet we'll still be searching for answers at the wrong places. The resurrection of Jesus is the birth into a life of victory and dominion for the church but the defeated lives many lead, is a sign that many are seeking the living among the dead. It's a sign that many, just like these disciples, have forgotten the words of Jesus. There is need for revival. We need to remind ourselves again who Jesus is and what He represents for the church.
Bible clearly states that in the last days the love of many shall wax cold because iniquity shall abound. Beloved, Jesus is still real. He is still the same yesterday, today and forever. He can't change, even if the whole world grows cold. He promised He will come again in power to rapture the Church. His words will still come to pass again. I pray that we'll not be found among those lagging behind when He comes again. Flourish!
Pray: Lord, open my eyes to your word in Jesus name

The Issue With Wealth II

There is a point one can get to in life where money is no longer a challenge. If one reaches this level and care is not taken, you may discover that dependence on God on certain issues may begin to decline. Because some of the things the person used to pray about, money can now provide them. There is another category of people who have all the money they will ever need in life; and there are others that have never known what is called lack all their life. These kind of people may never understand if you tell them how impoverished people are, out their. They may see it in the television or in the papers but they may not fully come to terms with it. Some in this group can put people down to make sure they maintain position. Then, finally we have the poor folks and those trying to make ends meet. I have one problem with this last two category, especially the poor, they always think that the rich is the cause of their poverty. You may never blame someone who was born with a silver ...

The Four Abilities of God Needed For a Turn Around

The reason people troop to the wrong places looking for answers to the various questions that life asked them is because many do not understand the ability of the Almighty God to save through Christ Jesus. Many have been duped, raped, destroyed and plundered because instead of coming to God who can truly save, they were deceived by people, personalities and powers claiming to offer solution.  God in Himself has several abilities that He has manifested at various times and I will just discuss shortly four out of the many needed to turn the situation of any man around:
