GO BY HIS POWER



 GO BY HIS POWER

Scriptural Highlight: (Philippians 4:13 ESV) - "For I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
God has the ability to empower you to do any assignment for His kingdom. Being a disciple for Christ requires extraordinary strength and power. Bible admonishes us in Ephesians 6:11-12 to: " Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places." From this scripture, we see that evil have forces that enforce its influence over people. Merriam Webster' Dictionary defines an aspect of force as "a body (as of troops or ships) assigned to a military purpose". So the spiritual forces we saw in Ephesians 6:12 have one purpose, and that is to make sure that evil is reigning in the world.
To be on the Lords side and create the requisite impact requires strength from God in your inner man. Jesus told His disciples not to move out until they be endued with power.
The power of God is the answer the world is looking for. In any sphere of life that God has called you: be it business, ministry, career, whatever; the power of God will always bring out the answers we are looking for.
Jesus said "all things are possible to them that believe." What God will do with a life seeking His strength is yet to be heard of. People are tired of dry sermons. We need sermons loaded with power and Spirit of the word of God. We need songs from the Spirit; songs that convict; songs that will draw down the weight of God's glory. We need men that will arise in the political front with kingdom grace and power. All these can only happen by the strength that comes from knowing Jesus. Bible said that out of Zion shall go forth the rod of His strength... (Psalm 110:2). Zion is the church of God; believers in Christ.
Beloved, we can do wonders, if only we can connect and stir up the power within us in Christ. Flourish!

Pray: Lord I receive strength for the journey ahead of me in Jesus name.

What We Represent

Ride The Tide Tide is the periodic variation in the surface level of the oceans and of bays, gulfs, inlets, and estuaries, caused by gravitational attraction of the moon and sun (The American Heritage Dictionary).  Just as the physical tide exists with its implications in our environment, a spiritual tide also exists in the life of a human being which tend to rise occasionally. And when it does rise, many are not well equipped to handle issues.  In this platform, we expose you to the fact that the tide can be turned to your favour, for with God nothing is impossible. How one is going to react in the midst of a tide, whether you will ride over it (turning it to your favour) or not is dependent on the quality of your spirit. We believe it is only the word of God that gives quality to a man's spirit. We use the phrase "Ride The Tide" because it captures the inspiration well in our heart. contact: chuks4flourish@gmail.com

The Issue With Wealth

It has been said that wealth is a reward for value. I agree a million times. I was discussing with a friend over something and he said, "What I want is the one that will be bringing money quick, quick". Immediately he said that I was taken aback. This kind of statement is what would be glaring, were you to cut open many hearts. But the truth is that only one percent of the world's population are controlling the wealth , others are just following and wishing they were more lucky. The average man on the street is hustling believing that one day more than enough money will enter his account. If a new flourishing business comes to town you will see everyone running into it looking for wealth. If for instance Nigeria discovers oil in a new sight now, many will rush to become oil workers. They are all in search of wealth. They need more money (ego, kudi, owo)! But on the other hand, wealth creators or rather value creators do not move with the trend or the hassles rath...
