God's Glory


Scriptural Highlight: (Isaiah 60:1) - "Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you."


Glory is the beauty of God; it is the manifestation of God's presence in a person's life or in a place. God is everywhere and knows everything but when He decides to reveal Himself more to someone - that is His glory. Psalm 19:1KJV says, "The heavens declare the Glory of God; and the firmament showeth his handiwork." If you want to see how glorious God is, just look at heaven, look at the firmament, look at His handiwork. If the firmament declare God's glory, what about us - the image of God?

It takes God to make a place heaven. Anywhere God finds Himself in, automatically becomes glorious. Heaven is heaven because God dwells their and His radiance just overshadows everywhere. The Garden  of Eden was glorious because God always showed up. Beloved if you can give God a place in your life, He'll turn your life to glory. Any home that gives God a place becomes heaven on earth. In Revelation 21:36-37, John writes, "The dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying nor pain anymore for the former things have passed away." You see, when the dwelling place of man becomes the dwelling place of God, that place becomes heaven on earth.

Our scriptural highlight for today charges us to arise and shine. To arise is to believe; to arise is to give Jesus, who is our risen light, a place in our hearts; to arise is to walk in light of His words. And when these are achieved in a man's life, glory is inescapable for that life. Flourish!

Pray: Lord, I arise, please help me to shine forth 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

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...
