“And He said to them, Be careful what you are hearing. The measure [of thought and study] you give [to the truth you hear] will be the measure [of virtue and knowledge] that comes back to you–and more [besides] will be given to you who hear.” ‭‭Mark‬ ‭4:24‬ ‭AMPC‬‬ “So pay attention to how you hear. To those who listen to My teaching, more understanding will be given. But for those who are not listening, even what they think they understand will be taken away from them.” ‭‭Lu

“And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind Him, and touched the hem of His garment: For she said within herself, If I may but touch His garment, I shall be whole.” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭9:20-21‬ ‭KJV‬‬ Do you need something from Jesus today? Are you facing situations beyond your control? Have you tried everything and have been left with the problem unresolved? Has the diagnosis caused you to despair of hope? What have you been saying to y

“The Lord took hold of me, and I was carried away by the Spirit of the Lord to a valley filled with bones. He led me all around among the bones that covered the valley floor. They were scattered everywhere across the ground and were completely dried out. Then He asked me, “Son of man, can these bones become living people again?” “O Sovereign Lord,” I replied, “You alone know the answer to that.” Then He said to me, “Speak a prophetic message to these bones and say, ‘Dry bones

“You are coming to Christ, who is the living Cornerstone of God’s temple. He was rejected by people, but He was chosen by God for great honor. And you are living stones that God is building into His spiritual temple. What’s more, you are His holy priests. Through the mediation of Jesus Christ, you offer spiritual sacrifices that please God. As the Scriptures say, “I am placing a Cornerstone in Jerusalem, chosen for great honor, and anyone who trusts in Him will never be disgr

“Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. And this same God who takes care of me will supply all your needs from His glorious riches, which have been given to us in Christ Jesus. Now all glory to God our Father forever and ever! Amen.” ‭‭Philippians‬

When your service to the Lord becomes a chore, it ceases being a labor of love. When your service for the Lord becomes an obligation or duty, it loses its fragrance. When your service for the Lord causes you to question the motive of others, it leads to resentment and complaining. Let’s read. “As Jesus and the disciples continued on their way to Jerusalem, they came to a certain village where a woman named Martha welcomed him into her home. Her sister, Mary, sat at the Lord’s

I overheard the title in a dream. In the dream pastor Demola (deceased) it appears was having a conversation with pastor John, my current pastor. Pastor John repeated what pastor David had shared. And it was the title. If you deny Me, I will deny you. I woke up and began to speak to the Lord. But as He responded, I thought He would’ve taken me to the scripture where He spoke those words, instead He used the scripture below, but stopped short of what most preachers used this

Well Franklin Graham certainly believes that. In his effort to encourage people of faith to take the vaccine, he has succumbed to embellishment. What a disgrace! If we have to use innuendos to sell a vaccine then my friends, it is certainly not worth the risk. As a matter of fact I’d much rather trust in the real Jesus who wouldn’t need the vaccine for this simple reason: HE DOESN’T GET SICK! HE HEALS THE SICK! No wonder the watching world sees us as a joke, and not to be tak

“May the God of your hope so fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound and be overflowing (bubbling over) with hope.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭15:13‬ ‭AMPC‬‬ Are you a believer? No, I’m not asking if you’re a Christian. Are you a believer? If you’re having trouble responding, then you’re not. Next question. If you are a believer, what are you believing for? This isn’t a trick question. We’re all b

I heard a preacher make this statement and I latched on to its truth. “Doubt tolerated, is faith contaminated” let me write it again in case you missed it, but I’ll write it slowly this time. DOUBT TOLERATED, IS FAITH CONTAMINATED. That my friends is the reason why the Church is drying up and dying like a severed branch. Because it is impossible to to please or even approach God without it. If you’re living with contaminated faith because of teaching, which is really ignoran

“If you are faithful in little things, you will be faithful in large ones. But if you are dishonest in little things, you won’t be honest with greater responsibilities. And if you are untrustworthy about worldly wealth, who will trust you with the true riches of heaven? And if you are not faithful with other people’s things, why should you be trusted with things of your own?” ‭‭Luke‬ ‭16:10-12‬ ‭NLT‬‬ Yet another title where I said scripture please. He’s in rare form today, l

Go ahead! Say it! I’ve lost my mind. My much learning has made me mad. Well that’s what they said about Paul when they tried to understand spiritual things with an unregenerate mind. But I hear you. When the Holy Spirit gave me this title, I said what! Scripture please. Well He shot right back. “Then Peter began to speak up. “We’ve given up everything to follow You,” he said. “Yes,” Jesus replied, “and I assure you that everyone who has given up house or brothers or sisters o

I’m chuckling while I write the topic for this message. I went to read the passage I’m about to share, and saw that I had underlined these words of Jesus. “You know the way to the place where I’m going.” As I read it out loud, I said to the Lord, “ You’re a thought provoking God! You love to get us thinking.” You say things already knowing the response we will give. Not so we will be embarrassed by our answers, but so that You’ll grow us by Your responses. He loves it when we

The Holy Spirit brought this title to my mind as we were having a conversation about Christians who have become fearful of pushback from the world pertaining to Biblical truths. He brought certain events in scripture to mind, that I will share here. Then I’ll wait for Him to elaborate more on what He’s alluding to. “When Ahab saw Elijah, Ahab said to him, Are you he who troubles Israel? Elijah replied, I have not troubled Israel, but you have, and your father's house, by fors

“After David had finished talking with Saul, he met Jonathan, the king’s son. There was an immediate bond between them, for Jonathan loved David. From that day on Saul kept David with him and wouldn’t let him return home. And Jonathan made a solemn pact with David, because he loved him as he loved himself. Jonathan sealed the pact by taking off his robe and giving it to David, together with his tunic, sword, bow, and belt. Whatever Saul asked David to do, David did it success

“Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He will give you the desires and secret petitions of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord [roll and repose each care of your load on Him]; trust (lean on, rely on, and be confident) also in Him and He will bring it to pass.” ‭‭Psalm‬ ‭37:4-5‬ ‭AMPC‬‬ Question. What will He bring to pass? What you have committed to Him. Keep that thought as you read. “And God chose me to be a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher of this Good News. That

Have you looked through your spiritual eyes lately? There’s so much going on around us, that it’s easy to miss out on the wonderful things that the Lord is doing in and for us. No wonder the apostle Paul instructed us not to look to the left or right, but to look away or unto Jesus. The enemy is the master of distraction, but we must endeavor to faithfully fix our eyes on Jesus Christ alone. In 2 Kings 6, Elisha, surrounded by the Armenian army, prayed that the eyes of his pa

“Faith shows the reality of what we hope for; it is the evidence of things we cannot see. Through their faith, the people in days of old earned a good reputation. By faith we understand that the entire universe was formed at God’s command, that what we now see did not come from anything that can be seen.” ‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭11:1-3‬ ‭NLT‬‬ “All these people earned a good reputation because of their faith, yet none of them received all that God had promised.” ‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭11:39‬ ‭NLT‬‬

“Who else has held the oceans in His hand? Who has measured off the heavens with His fingers? Who else knows the weight of the earth or has weighed the mountains and hills on a scale? Who is able to advise the Spirit of the Lord? Who knows enough to give Him advice or teach Him? Has the Lord ever needed anyone’s advice? Does He need instruction about what is good? Did someone teach Him what is right or show Him the path of justice? No, for all the nations of the world are but

“I write this to you who believe in (adhere to, trust in, and rely on) the Name of the Son of God [in the peculiar services and blessings conferred by Him on men], so that you may know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that you [already] have life, yes, eternal life. And this is the confidence (the assurance, the privilege of boldness) which we have in Him: [we are sure] that if we ask anything (make any request) according to His will (in agreement with His own plan), He
