Complete in Him.

We have been given different templates for defining completeness in life by pou society.Some schools of thought have it in the form of physical substance.They believe that you are complete if you have money and influence.Others believe you are complete if you have men at your beck-and-call,yet others believe that a complete man is one who can satisfy his woman in all ramifications.
What is completeness then?The bible tells us that completeness is not in the things we do but in who we are.In this world,there are two kinds of people: those who are in the middle of an identity crisis (No thanks to the fall),and those who now know who they are in Christ. Paul the Apostle said in Eph 1:22-23 that God made Christ the head over all things to the Church which is his body,the fullness of Him who fills all in all ,so you see that Christ is not only the fullness of all things in God but he also fills all things in God.We can also say that Christ is the completenes of all things in God and He completes all things in God.Hallelujah!
Your positioning and relevance in this system of things is not a function of what society defines (Because society is bound in the realm of the five physical sences and can not concieve any thing beyond this realm),it is a function of who you know you are.People who battle with complexes and self-esteem issues have got to know that in Christ,it is not about what the world says or think about you,but it is all about who Christ has made you become! If only believers will realise this,then we will be free from frustration and depression.We will not have issues with acceptance because we have been accepted into the beloved.Do you see that?
People of God let us now walk tall in the accurate knowledge of who we are in Christ.He is our completeness and we are complete in Him.What more can we ask for!

The Grace of Our Lord Jesus, the love of God and communion with the Spirit

On the Grace of our Lord, the Father's love and the communion of the Spirit in the life of the Believer. 2Cor 13:14 is a portion of Scripture quoted so often in church that the mention of it brings closing of service or benediction to mind. In this portion of Scripture which indeed is a prayer, is hidden an eternally powerful truth. It is my confidence that the Spirit of God by the will of God will shed light on our spirits as we seek the light of this truth, embrace it and apply it daily in our walk with God. It says "the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Love of God and the sweet fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all". What a prayer! First it is seen in this prayer, THE WORD, THE FATHER and THE SPIRIT. Once upon a time, in the beginning of time, there was a convocation and in that meeting, Elohim, was there with The Logos and His Pneuma, and the result was creation. What if there is a creative mystery embedded in this prayer in the life of a believer? What ...

A case for Heavenly Mindedness.

It is often said "do not be so heavenly conscious that you become earthly useless" but I say unto you, the man who is conscious of eternity as he ought cannot and will not be earthly useless. His heart will be set on pleasing God and that means obeying God's every instruction on his life. There is no man who has so lives that turns out useless to his world and generation. Jesus didn't turn out that way nor did the apostles and every other saint whose names we mention and whose works we reference. Their contributions derived from inspiration that flowed from their following God faithfully is the light we now shine for the next generation. This systematic secularization of the church is what is standing between men and their eternal destines on the earth. We complain we do not have devoted men serving God but we preach that men should balance spirituality and secularism. It is not so in God’s word. You cannot serve two masters. You are either following God or you are f...

SEXUAL PURITY

Sex. This three letter word is one of the most talked about subject in the world. In fact, we live in a highly sexualized generation. I have seen bill boards that have pictures of ladies not properly dressed, advertising tooth paste! Movies are not interesting without sex, novels struggle to sell if there is no touch of sex. It is hard these days for young people to live untangled lives, free from the grip and influence of sex. Marriages are not free either as infidelity remains a leading cause of divorce. I read twenty-six different stories today, sad tales of young men who were molested at some point in their life, some were raped. There are also stories of women whose lives carry scars from sexual abuse. The world we live in is sexually charged and there are now all sorts of ways people go about discharging. The journey towards sexual purity begins at gaining a proper understanding of sex. This understanding can only be formed from God's word. This understanding will be built...
