Church history has it that the Church suffered so much in times past because imbalanced doctrinal emphasis, controvesrsies and personality cults. What was paul's appeal to the Church in Corinth in v.10? Christians are not called to be men's followers but followers of Christ, you must be careful about how you esteem your spiritual leaders not to cause division in the church or shift your focus from Christ. Mentoring is good but it must not shift your eyes from your creator, the Author and the finisher of your faith.
Prayer for the Day: Lord Jesus, help me by your Spirit not to be an agent of division in your body the church, in Jesus name.

UNCONDITIONAL LOVE RONMANS 5:8-11
Friday 4TH Feburay 2011
But God proves His own love for us in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us. This means how much He love us we did not do anything to deserve such a love, in (1 John 3:1). Says we should look at how great ove the Father has given unto us, that we should be called His own children. And we are! The reason the world does not know us it that they did not know Him.'' For the love of God is made manifeast in our lives through His work on the cross, because He love us that is why He gave up His life for us that as we trust and believe in Him we shall have everlasting lasting life. Not that we love Him but that He love us and sent His only Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Friends if God love us in this way then we must also love one another, no one has ever seen God but loving our brothers and sisters will tell God is in us.
Prayer for the Day: Lord Jesus help me to love as you love me and die for me that your name will glorify.

WHAT IS YOUR DOUBT ABOUT JESUS? MATTHEW 11:1-15
February 3rd 2011
Jesus taught and preached in surrounding cities but not at the expense of His disciples. His teaching and preaching came after He had instructed His disciples. What lesson can leaders and pastors in church and ministries learn today from what Jesus did? Do not starve the disciples while feeding the crowd. Can we learn something important from John's inquiry about Jesus? A good disciple of Jesus should not go about on rumour mongering. It is good to be always sure about crucial issues of life. Jesus affirms the prophetic role of John. Is your ministry recognize by Jesus or men, and are you working for yourself or for Jesus.
Prayer for the Day: Lord Jesus, help me to settle all doubts in my mind about you and increase in faith in Jesus Name.

THORN IN THE FLESH 2 CORINTHIANS 12:1-10
2nd January 2011
Paul had a revelation from God while he went through tough times but he said he refuse to boast about them because it will a waist of time for him to that. He said even though the experience he had worth boasting but he will rather boast in his weaknesses, he has every right to boast because he will not be telling lies of what he saw whiles in paradise. We must always allowed the glory of God to seen rather than forcing people to believe what we are doing.
We are not to take credit for what God uses us to do for He is the only one who deserve the glory, Paul did not want any one to praise him for what God was using him to do, with all the wonderful revelations he receive from God. Sometimes we go through some certain situation in other to keep us in check, and we are not worry when we go through such times but rather rest upon the strength of God. Paul pleaded to God for healing but God refuse to heal for His own purpose we can not always understand God for what He is doing He does thing according to His will and not our will. So if you are going through tough, difficult, and hardship, do not start complaining but rather ask God to help you stand so His glory can be seen through those times. Paul went through all that he went through for the seek of Christ are you also ready to take up that task? If you are ready then His grace will sufficient for you as it was for brother Paul.
Prayer for the Day: Lord help me with your grace in time of hard time in Jesus Name.

ALL POWERFUL GOD EXODUS 15:1-9
Music played an important part in Israel's worship and celebration. Singing was an expression of love and thanks, and it was creative way to pass oral tradition. Moses and the Israelites praised God in (v.1) The reasons are 1. God destroyed the Egyptian army in the red sea in the same (v.1). 2. God was the strength and the Savior of the Israelites it continues in (v.2). 3. God is a man of war who fought for the Israelites, in Exodus 14:28. The Egyptian army that went after the Israelites non of them survive and you can count on this great blessing of God for your life, for the past one year and give Him all the praise He deserve. (v. 4-8). Give details of what God did for the people of Israel. You can also ask God for a fovour in your work, school, business, ministry, leadership and in every area of your life in this New Year. Look at (v.9). for the expectaion and the plans of the enemy. You must beware Satan also wants to do the same but Jesus is ready to deliever you from his hands. The purpose of the thief is to steal kill and to destroy. But my purpose is to give you much rich and satisfying life.
Prayer for the Day: Lord Jesus hear my cry and deliever me from the plans of my enemies.
