RECEIVE POWER II

Scriptural Highlight: (Acts 1:8)- "But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit is come on you, and you will be my witnesses."
 From our scriptural highlight for today, we read "but you will receive power when the Holy Spirit is come on you, and you will be my witnesses." In other words, you don't have the power to "be" unless you have the Holy Spirit. But, in our world today, we see lots of people trying to "be" things for God without the Holy Spirit. Many claim to represent God but God's requirement is lacking. I have been in situations where people who came to share the gospel ended up grieving my spirit though am a Christian too. What was been said lacked power and fervor of the Holy Spirit. If this can happen to me, what about the unbelievers who need the message to be saved. What an error to talk about a mighty God without His presence and power! Before the out pour of the Holy Spirit, it amazed me that before Jesus sent out his disciples two by two for outreach, He had to empower them. Beloved, don't run off in haste to do things for God in the flesh, it will fail. The word of God is clear that no man shall prevail by his strength. Paul said "In the last days that men will have a form godliness but denying the power" (2Timothy3:5). Seek God and his enabling power for the assignment over your life. In the days of His power, the people shall be willing, (Psalm 102:3). Go and Flourish!

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

MY PAST HUNTS ME! HOW DO I DEAL WITH IT NOW THAT AM IN CHRIST?

  DRAW A LINE BETWEEN YOUR PAST AND YOUR FUTURE ! Many people come to Christ daily but battle with the memories of their past life which probably was rough, painful or traumatic. I have seen many people who struggled to live their new found faith in Christ just because a terrible past life comes hunting: I have seen some who got delivered from occult involvements, terrible abuses, sexual lifestyles and other dehumanizing struggles battling to live the Christian life because of the height of what they had been through. For some of them even when God has forgiven their sins, they find it hard to forgive themselves. So the devil takes advantage of the struggle, self condemnation or guilt to hinder their growth in the things of the spirit. But the Bible teaches that, he that is in Christ is a new creation, old things are past away and behold all things are new. No matter what a person has done, as long as the person has not grieved the Holy Spirit, he can be saved. So the...
