The secret to carrying God’s power is in spending quality time in His presence. I believe God is calling all Believers and Christian ministers into the secret place through consistent fellowship with Him in the prayer closet. If we are to do great exploits such as preach the gospel with power and perform miracles, signs and wonders there is a lifestyle that God has modelled for us in His Word. We can carry God’s fire for our generation and make great impact in our time! In this episode I delve into the scriptures and discuss the secret to hosting the power of God and how to always remain infused with God’s supernatural presence.
The presence of God is cultivated through consistent fellowship with the Holy Spirit. If we are to make an impact in our generation we must be seekers of God! How hungry is our generation for God or have we simply become lukewarm and indifferent? How desperate are you for God? In this episode we discuss the need for every Believer to seek God through intensive prayer and meditation on God’s Word! The psalmist says, “As the deer panteth for the streams of water, so does my soul long after God”. It is time to seek God!
Our Lord Jesus Christ ascended to heaven publicly in the midst of 500 witnesses. According to the scriptures; He is now seated on the right hand of the Father as our heavenly representative and Great High Priest as it pertains to matters in relation to God. He ever lives to make intercession for us. And if we have sinned; we have an Advocate with the Father; Christ Jesus the righteous One. In this episode, I discuss Jesus’ ascension and the heavenly ministry of Jesus as our Great High Priest, Intercessor and Advocate.
After Jesus rose from the dead; He spent 40 days showing Himself by many infallible proofs that He had resurrected. He went about teaching and preaching about the kingdom of God and at the end of the 40 days He ascended to heaven publicly in the midst of 500 witnesses. In this episode, I discuss the benefits to the Believer of Jesus’ ascension. There are benefits that we would not have obtained if Jesus had not ascended to heaven, let’s look into the scriptures and find out.
The story of Mephibosheth in the bible is one of God’s mercy and grace. In it we see God’s power and divine ability to lift somebody from the dung hill to the palace, from disgrace to embrace and from poverty to prosperity. God is a covenant keeping God whose promises are Yes and Amen in Christ Jesus! In this episode, I show us how God can restore all that the enemy has stolen from us and make our lives whole again!
Perhaps you’re overwhelmed by pressures of life and it seems as if you have been in that predicament for so long. Maybe you’ve suffered sickness for years or have not recovered from the effects of the recent COVID pandemic, there’s hope for you. Your major breakthrough is coming! Don’t give up, hope in God and have faith that sooner or later God’s help is on the way. In this episode we take a look at the story of mercy and grace in John 5 where a man had suffered an infirmity for 38 years.
In this episode we answer the question, what does it mean to be a born-again Christian? In part 2, I extensively discuss the subject of adoption and sonship as it is very central to our subject of the new creation in Christ. God has bestowed upon us such a manner of love that we are now called the children of God! What a privilege it is to be born of God, born of the water of the Spirit and to be washed in the Blood of Jesus! We are now part of God’s family and co-heirs with Christ! Thank God for the resurrection of Jesus Christ which has begotten us to a new hope! Glory to God!
What is regeneration and who exactly does this work in a Believer’s life? In this episode we answer this question amongst others, what does it mean to be a born-again Christian? Jesus told Nicodemus that you cannot see the kingdom of God unless you are born again. He went on further to say unless you are born of water and the Spirit you cannot enter the kingdom of God. In this episode, I discuss the encounter that Nicodemus had with Jesus that is written in John 3 and extrapolate answers to the subject in question in order to provide more clarity on the subject based on the scriptures. Be blessed and enjoy!
In this episode we answer the question, was Jesus actually resurrected? Many often wonder what are the proofs of the resurrection whilst others often want to know, did Jesus have a physical resurrection? Was Jesus’ body stolen from the tomb? Therefore, in this episode I answer all these questions and discuss twelve eyewitness incidents that prove that Jesus was raised a physical body and came out of the grave. He conquered death and the grave. The tomb is empty! He is risen because He is the Resurrection and Life! Resurrection is important and true because it is the bedrock upon which our faith is built upon! Glory to God!
In this episode we answer the question, why the resurrection is significant. Some religious sects such as the Watch-Tower society claim that Jesus was not raised as a physical body. However, this is contrary to what the scriptures teach us. Resurrection is the very bedrock upon which Christianity is built upon. Be blessed!
In this episode we answer the question, Is Jesus God? Many people consider Jesus as just a carpenter’s son. Others say he was just a prophet thus relegating Him to an ordinary human-being. However, the scriptures are replete with evidence that show us that He is God and that Christ is the express image of the Father. There are so many proofs of the deity of Christ all over the Bible. Thus, I provide 5 reasons from the scriptures in support of the fullness of the Godhead embodied in Christ.
In this two parts series, I discuss the role of the Holy Spirit in our lives today. It is important that we get to know the Third person of the God Head so that we develop an intimate fellowship with Him. We also take a look at the ministry of the Holy Spirit earth. There are three witnesses in Heaven, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. I zoom in to His work at salvation which is exactly when a Believer receives the Holy Spirit and His various facets and involvement in our daily Christian walk.
In this part 2, we further take a look at the role of the Holy Spirit in our lives. I discuss the gifts of the Holy Spirit that manifest in His operation in the church as well as the fruit of the Holy Spirit which should be evident in all Believers’ characters. A lot of us place too much value on gifts and lesser emphasis on the fruit. Let’s find out from the scriptures which is the more excellent way.
Submitting to the leading of the Spirit should be every Believer’s primary pursuit. In this episode, I discuss some of the weaknesses in the law of Moses in order to provide a simple understanding of law and grace.
When Christ died for us, he put an end to the law of condemnation that was contrary to us by blotting it out and nailing it to His cross. He gave us the Law of Liberty by which we can have fellowship with God through the Holy Spirit who lives in us. In this episode, I discuss why the law of Christ is superior to the law of Moses.
The heartbeat of God are the souls of mankind. He does not want any of them to perish. He expressed His highest form of love through His Son Jesus who died in our place and took the harsh punishment that we deserved. By laying down His life for us; our Lord Jesus was setting a pattern for us that we should follow. In this episode, I cover the highest form of love that we can give to our friends, families and relatives.
The dangers of the internet have contributed to our youth’s minds becoming corrupted. Furthermore, Bible study lessons are being discouraged in most of our school systems, instead schools are indoctrinating our generation with wrong human evolution myths in order to water-down the authority of the Bible. As a result, the moral fabric of our society has diminished largely because of the compromised standards of God’s supreme word in our modern day culture.
The question that often arises amongst most Christians is, “Can I be spiritual and not religious?” Hence, in this episode we take a look at the difference between religion and spirituality. The message being driven is how to cultivate a spiritual relationship with God rather than relating with him from a place of religion. We discuss Jesus’ perspectives as it relates to the subject matter.
Do the Old Testament laws still apply to Christians today? In this episode I give you 8 reasons why the Old Covenant is no longer binding under the new covenant of Christ. As we already know there are some differences between the Old and New Testaments. We also take a look at some of the flaws with the old covenant and why it had to be replaced with the new covenant based upon better promises.
In this episode, we take a look at how Jesus is foreshadowed in the Old Testament. Old Testament typology of Christ is a very critical part of the Bible as it unveils to us the person of Jesus. In the Old Testament Scriptures we find Jesus concealed whilst in the New Testament, He is revealed. Messianic prophecies were made by the prophets of old which have been fulfilled by our Lord Jesus. Hopefully this study will strengthen our faith and grant us a deeper knowledge of the person of our Lord Jesus. Join me as we study the subject together!
Since no one knows what tomorrow holds, it is important that you live like it’s your last day. It is a true saying that yesterday is history tomorrow is a mystery but today is a gift which is why it's called the present. Today is a gift from God given to us to pursue divine purpose. In this episode, I discuss the importance of seizing every opportunity that our present time presents to us and show you how you can deal with procrastination.
One of the best ways fulfill your divine purpose in life is to ignore your critics and live like it’s your last day. God has placed you on earth according to His plan. In episode 1, I dealt with reasons why it is so important to seize every opportunity that God presents. In this episode, I discuss 5 obstacles that need to be surmounted in order for us to pursue divine purpose.
God’s standard when it pertains to matters of sacrifice and atonement, sanctification and purging of sins can be found in His word. In this episode, I attempt to give you scriptural revelation why God was pleased with Jesus’ sacrifice and as a result His anger was appeased. Thereby this brought peace between God and mankind. From the times of the Old Testament sacrifices through to the New Covenant, God has always kept His requirement that every sacrifice presented to Him should be acceptable. Be blessed!
