We have the mind of Christ as believers, but let's cultivate and groom it. That's the essence of discipleship.

To me, these are the two most powerful prayers in the Bible and in the right order:
"Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me."
"Lord, that I might receive my sight."

We don't approach God on the basis of: "I pay my tithe or firstfruit faithfully." We come to God on the platform of MERCY - AT THE MERCY SEAT; bringing nothing in our hands, but clinging to the cross.

You're already in a ditch of carnality and deception when you begin to think that you're the best Christian, your pastor is the best pastor, or your church the best.

Net-breaking and ships-sinking blessings await those who'll obey the Lord's instructions this year. But we need to enlarge our capacity for more. Throw in more NETS, not just one net, for a draught. Multitude of fishes are waiting to rush into your nets.

Amen. God bless you.

"I've never tasted alcohol." "I've never smoked." "I've been sexually pure." "I love my neighbors." You've been deceived if your righteousness is based on these. Christ is our Righteousness.

Temptations come to us because we still have the ability to yield to temptations even after we're born again. There's no level of spirituality that we attain in life that will remove from us the ability to sin. But though the ability to sin is still in us, the grace of God has appeared to us and it enables us to say "NO" to sin.

From my personal experience, I've found out that when we preach Jesus and God's kingdom, miracles of healings happen with ease among the people even without praying for them to get healed.

My prayer for 2022.

"Awake, O north wind! Awake, O south wind! Breathe on my garden with your Spirit-Wind. Stir up the sweet spice of your life within me. Spare nothing as you make me your fruitful garden. Hold nothing back until I release your fragrance. Come walk with me as you walked with Adam in your paradise garden. Come taste the fruits of your life in me." Song of Solomon 4:16 TPT

Many people are high-spirited at points "Z" and "A", but they get despondent between points "A" and "Z". It's not enough to be hopeful in December and January. Put your hands to work and keep the fire burning between January and December. That's the secret of success.

God created the world in six days. He can still do what He promised you He'll do in 2021 before the end of the year. Only believe.

"How many are the lost that I have lifted?
How many are the chained I've helped to free?
I wonder, have I done my best for Jesus, when He has done so much for me."
Edwin Young

There are many unbelieving believers who claim to be following Jesus. They're the so-called disciples of Jesus Christ who always betray the Lord.

"But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not and who should betray him." John 6:64

I'm like a weak ox yoked to a strong and compassionate Christ. He carries me on and His strength alone does the job on the farm.

The height of a tree trunk must be directly proportional to the depth of its root. The spread of the branches of a tree only reflects the spread of its roots beneath the soil. Deepen! Heighten! Widen! This is the order.

It's more profitable to be taught by the author of a book than by a student of the author. Let the Holy Spirit who's the Author of the Bible be your principal Teacher.

The growth pattern of a tree that will live for 70 years can't be the same as the tree that will live for centuries.

The evil spirit cried to Jesus: "I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God." Mark 1:24
Holy living (not charisma, wisdom or wealth) makes your name popular and dreaded among devils.

I'm a willing and satisfied bond slave of Jesus Christ. My pleasure is to do the will of my Lord everyday of my life.
