O LORD MAKE ME WHOLE.

*LET US PRAY* *O LORD MAKE ME WHOLE.* (THANKSGIVING) *When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that He had been now a long time in that case, He saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole*?  *John 5:6*(*KJV*) We thank God for bringing us successfully to the end of this month and we return all the glory to God for all His graces at work in our lives in the name of Jesus. Beloved, i pray for you and with you today that whatever that has tampered with your wholeness in any area of your life, family, carrier and business as we pray right now joining my faith with yours we curse that thing and command it or them to die from their root by the power in the name of Jesus. As this month of February is completely complete i pray for you that from now that you will be complete. Anything lacking in your life is supplied now by the grace of God and the power of the Holy Spirit in the name of Jesus. The number two stands for witness, may you from now begin to produce evidence that will make people to believe G...

YOU ARE UNIQUE PT12

*FAITH NUGGET* *YOU ARE UNIQUE PT12* *Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth*."  *Gen 1:26*. Yesterday we were saying that for us to be like God who made us in His image and likeness that we must be holy and we tried to see what holiness all about and to buttress that even God Himself had to remind us that he is holy.  *Lev 20:26*. *And you shall be holy to Me, for I the Lord am holy, and have separated you from the peoples, that you should be Mine*. Today we want to look at another dimension of God. The bible told us that God is love. *He who does not love does not know God, for God is love*. *1Jn 4:8*. St John is telling us that God does not love but that He is love personified. Unfortunately in our world of today the word love is the most abused word. It is mostly used t...

YOU ARE UNIQUE PT11

*FAITH NUGGET* *YOU ARE UNIQUE PT11* *Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth*."  *Gen 1:26*. We have seen how we can look like God in His image and since then we have been trying to see how we can look like Him in his likeness and we said that God is a Creator and as his creation that we are supposed to look like Him in advancing His creation. We are also made to understand that God is a holy God and the question now is what does it mean to be Holy? To be holy simply means being perfect, pure, immaculate and complete in moral character; Properly, whole, entire or perfect, in a moral sense. The standard for judging or measuring holiness is perfection, purity etc God created us and hallowed us and consecrated us and set us apart for a sacred use( for His own pleasure), in t...

RESTORATION OF GLORY.

*LET US PRAY* *(PRAYER FOR THE WEEK)*. *RESTORATION OF GLORY*. *Arise, shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you*.  *Is 60:1*. I pray for you and with you that the glory of the Lord will envelope your glory so that your glory will begin to manifest again more gloriously to the glory of God by the power in the name of Jesus. May this later days of your glory birth a new you that people will marvel at what the Lord has and is doing in your life and may this new wave of glory launch you into your next level in life by the power in the name of Jesus. Anywhere your glory has been tempered with by the reason of the glory of the Lord enveloping your glory may a better and more glorious glory be restored in the name of Jesus. By the reason of the glory of the Lord rising over you may you enter into your season of rest on all sides, prosperity, favour and increase on the name of Jesus. I pray for you that any power that wants to tamper with your glory hencefort...

YOU ARE UNIQUE PT11

*FAITH NUGGET* *YOU ARE UNIQUE PT11* *Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth*."  *Gen 1:26*. Yesterday we said that Jesus became fully human to show us the way we are to be like God. And we went ahead to see how he saw the relation to the human that he was by the way that he related with the father. We were able to point out how Jesus was saying i and my father are one. I do the work of my father and all that reasons been that he had a close relationship with the father and we saw how he was creating chair from trees and all that. Today as i just want us to take a look at something. Jesus did the work of the father because he was interested in doing the work of the father that says multiply now what i want us to consider today is this. All the Adam that are marrying Steve an...

YOU ARE UNIQUE PT10

*FAITH NUGGET* *YOU ARE UNIQUE PT10* *Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth*."  *Gen 1:26*. We have been taking a look at how we are supposed to be according to the word of God as it relates to us being made in the likeness of God. Today we shall be seeing it from the way Jesus did. I mean how Jesus saw the father from the human that he became. Before we continue let us first of all establish the fact that Jesus was fully human and as such felt like every other man in all things but sin. *But made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross*. *Phil 2:7-8*. Now consider the following statements o...

YOU ARE UNIQUE PT9

*FAITH NUGGET* *YOU ARE UNIQUE PT9* *Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth*."  *Gen 1:26*. Yesterday we started talking about looking like God because God told us that He made us in his image and likeness. Today we will look at what it means to look like God in relation to our life. Amen!!! First of all let us see what likeness means. What does it mean to have a likeness of God. Likeness means to resemble in form. To look like in character. It simply means doing what will make people not to fell the absence of the one you look like. Have you not heard the saying"like father like son?" Another good example is what happened at Antioch where the disciples of Jesus were first called christians not because they were living anyhow or quarrelling amongst themselves or e...

YOU ARE UNIQUE PT8

*FAITH NUGGET* *YOU ARE UNIQUE PT8* *Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth*."  *Gen 1:26*. I want to thank God for the impact that this messages are making in your life especially this series that is geared towards making you to know God's original intention in creating you. His plans, consultations and finally the creation of man. God had two intentions in creating man, the first is for man to be his image(mirror) where he can see Himself and today we will be looking at the second one "In His likeness" To talk about the likeness of God is first of all to know what God looks like. First of all God is a Creator. God created the world and rested for man to take over from there. God did most of the work and left man to complete the process.. for instance God knew...

YOU ARE UNIQUE PT7

*FAITH NUGGET* *YOU ARE UNIQUE PT7* *Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth*."  *Gen 1:26*. Yesterday we tried to paint a picture of how man feel and got broken like a mirror that God intended to use to see himself and can no longer give God a true reflection of Himself which was the very reason that made God to creat man. Can you begin to imagine how glorious God intended man to be? God wanted to see a glorious man. The kind of man that he can leave the earth for and the man will make the earth a kind paradise such that man may not need to bother about going to heaven because man has created heaven on earth. But all that dream and aspirations was cut short by man. The return for investment which God had in mind and intended to get was cut short because man proved that he ca...

YOU ARE UNIQUE PT5

*FAITH NUGGET* *YOU ARE UNIQUE PT5* *Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth*."  *Gen 1:26*. Remember that God made us with two things in mind "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; simple put we are God's mirror because we are his image. After now we will look at his likeness. What is an image? An image is what we see that points to what we don't see. An image in other words is a reflection of something that we cannot see. Let me explain it small. When you look at the mirror what you see is exactly yourself but you cannot touch it but it will tell you exactly how you look. If you are frowning your image will definitely frown and if you are smiling your image will definitely smile so whatever you want to see of yourself is what you present to ...

YOU MUST SHINE

*LET US PRAY* *(PRAYER FOR THE WEEK)*. *YOU MUST SHINE*. *Arise, shine; For your light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you*..  *Is 60:1*. To the glory of God we made it to another beautiful week. To the one and only true God that does wonders without number be glory both now and forever. I pray for you and with you that in this week that whatever that is keeping you down and has vowed that you will not arise not to talk of shining as we pray now may the God of heaven answer them from the place of thunder in the name of Jesus. Anyone that is jealous of your shine or scared of your shine or claims that your shine will or that it is stopping his or her own shine and he or she is about to do something about it may all that they will do make you to shine more and more in the name of Jesus. Whosoever that is sitting on your glory that it will not rise or manipulating it or trying to delay its rising after now may they have brain failure so as not to remember to do you harm ...

YOU ARE UNIQUE PT4

*FAITH NUGGET* *YOU ARE UNIQUE PT4* *Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth*."  *Gen 1:26*. Yesterday we painted a picture of God as a father with a massive investment hoping that his son will grow and take over the business having invested much in the child to be able to take over the business but unfortunately instead of the child to grow(be like God) the business he decided to destroy it(sin) Today we will be painting another picture of man disappointing God in not ever wanting to be like God in holiness and righteousness. Another picture that i want to paint is about humans. Imagine you having a son and you are proud of this son but only to discover that the more your own son, i mean your very own son grows that more he looks like an ape. And instead of this son trying t...

YOU ARE UNIQUE PT3

*FAITH NUGGET* *YOU ARE UNIQUE PT3* *Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth*."  *Gen 1:26*. We started this series by saying that for God to creat man he had to consult Himself by Himself and had to plan it all because he wanted man to be unique from other creations and we went ahead to say that another reason is that God wanted man to be like Him. The uniqueness of man in relation to what God intended him to be can never be over emphasised. God wanted man to be a reflection of himself.what do i mean sir? God wanted to instead of looking at a mirror to see how he look like He would rather look at man and see how exactly he look like. Let me try to paint a picture of what am trying to say here. Do you know the joy of a father that has a wonderful son that looks exactly like h...

YOU ARE UNIQUE PT2

*FAITH NUGGET* *YOU ARE UNIQUE PT2* *Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth*."  *Gen 1:26*. Yesterday we said that God created other things by His word but when He came to the creation of man he made consultation amongst Himself and planned it out before making man and we said that reason for him to do so was because man is unique. Another reason why God had to consult Himself by Himself before creating man was that he wanted man to be like Him. You heard me! You are just god in human form. *Jesus answered them, "Is it not written in your law, 'I said, "You are gods"'? If He called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken)*, *Jn 10:34-35*. It was necessary that for God to produce another god He had to plan it very wel...

YOU ARE UNIQUE

*FAITH NUGGET* *YOU ARE UNIQUE* *Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth*." *Gen 1:26*. God was creating before now by His words but when it came to the turn of man He decided to make consultations and have to come to terms with His team of creators and He outlined the reason for man to be created. God in Himself is a community of persons. We call them three person in one God (father, son and Holy Spirit) they have to put heads together to know what man should be and look like and at the end of taking a look at what God(father) presented they went ahead to creat man. Why was God trying to convince Himself to creat man and why did He go all out to present what man should look like and what is expected of him to Himself before embarking on the creation of man? For me it is to t...

EXCESS LOVE

*FAITH NUGGET* *EXCESS LOVE* *Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love does not know God, for God is love. In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another*.   *Jn 4:7-11*. What a wonderful day that the Lord has made for us all a day that calls for the celebration of the love of God towards man and the love of man to God and to fellow man. It is really a day of Love. Today Christians all over the world celebrate the the beginning of the practical manifestation of Jesus's Love for mankind by going into the wilderness to prepare to die for those(you and i) that supposed to die. St Paul captures what am trying to say in this words ...

YOUR WORK, YOUR WORTH

*FAITH NUGGET* *YOUR WORK, YOUR WORTH* *God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth, and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good. So the evening and the morning were the fourth day*.  *Gen 1:17-25*. Though we have ended our beginning with God series we will still continue to reflect on the book of genesis and fortunately it is a book that tells us how much God worked and so i believe that it will encourage us to work. Amen!!?? Did you see how God kept on working without break? The moment he gets done with one He moves to the next one and one begins to imagine why He would not stop to celebrate his success even if He has not done such before. At least He needs to praise Himself like the lizard that fall from a tree which said that it must praise itself even if nobody praises it. Another things to note there is the orderliness, the bible did not tell us when God planned all that He create...

THE LAST AFFLICTION IS THE VERY LAST

*LET US PRAY* *(PRAYER FOR THE WEEK)*. *THE LAST AFFLICTION IS THE VERY LAST*. *What do you conspire against the Lord? He will make an utter end of it. Affliction will not rise up a second time*.  *Nahum 1:9*. Father we thank you for the gift of life and all the rights and privileges that you allowed to come our way in the previous week we return all the glory to you for all that you have done, all that you are doing and all that you will continue to do in the name of Jesus. Child of God i pray for you and with you that in this week that whatever that has troubled your life and destiny before now especially those that boasted that even God cannot help you, i pray that God will answer them by fire in the name of Jesus. Every power and kingdom planning to frustrate the plans of God over your life. Wherever they have gather to conspire against the plans of God over your life may that conspiracy be their doom now in the name of Jesus. The word of God says that he will make an utter end o...

LAST DAY OF OUR BEGINNING WITH GOD

*FAITH NUGGET* (*LAST DAY OF OUR BEGINNING WITH GOD*) *Then God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He made the stars also. God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth*.  *Gen 1:16-17*. Today we are not going to be talking much because it is our last day of beginning with God and as such it is a day of Thanksgiving. Amen!!!!. Before the Thanksgiving and declarations let me say this in a hurry. Have you began something? If you have not i think that you are somehow late because the God that began the beginning bagan the beginning in the beginning, He did not wait or procrastinate rather He began the beginning in the beginning so if you have not began anything you are late because we have passed the point of beginning. The best time to plant a tree was ten years ago but another great opportunity to do that is now so if you have not began anything the best time you have which we call second chance is ...

BEGIN WITH GOD PT28

*FAITH NUGGET* *BEGIN WITH GOD PT28* (*39TH DAY OF OUR BEGINNING WITH GOD*) *Then God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He made the stars also. God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth*.  *Gen 1:16-17*. We have been looking at the heavenly bodies and how they did their best to fullfil divine mandate for them and to the glory of God since creation they have never failed. Another thing that is worth looking into as far as these heavenly bodies are concerned is the fact they did not choose were to stay, they did not choose how to be and they did not choose how they were made or what they were made for. In life there are so many things that we meet the way they are for instance, none of us choose our parentage, our nationality or our tribe. We were privileged by grace to be where we are today. Why are we looking at these factors? Many of us allowed our background to keep our backs on the ground, ...
*FAITH NUGGET* *BEGIN WITH GOD PT27* (*38TH DAY OF OUR BEGINNING WITH GOD*) *Then God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He made the stars also. God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth*.  *Gen 1:16-17*. Am being led by the spirit of God to buttress the very fact that you and i need to shine so today we will be looking at Jesus our model as we make up our mind to shine. The first thing that we are going to be looking at today is to encourage us to connect to Jesus who is the real light and light personified and this is my reason for saying so. *Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me*. *Jn 15:4*. How can we connect to Jesus genuinely? By believing in Him, loving Him, serving Him, by obeying His words, by worshipping Him and by making Him the Lord and master of all that we do and say. Why would w...

BEGIN WITH GOD PT26

*FAITH NUGGET* *BEGIN WITH GOD PT26* (*37TH DAY OF OUR BEGINNING WITH GOD*) *Then God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He made the stars also. God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth*.  *Gen 1:16-17*. Congratulations dear for joining us thus far. just few days to go. God is our strength. We have seen how the heavenly bodies existed in their space and time and how they all helped each other to be their best and till date they continue to be their best because they decide to each other keeper and the good news is that you and i are the beneficiaries of these their cooperation. Let us now take a look at you and i who are the beneficiaries of these great light. Remember that we said that if these are great light that we are greater but greater what? Check this out. "*You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden*. *Math 5:14*. So permit me to say that you ar...

BEGIN WITH GOD PT25

*FAITH NUGGET* *BEGIN WITH GOD PT25* *Then God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He made the stars also. God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth*.  *Gen 1:16-17*. We have seen so many things that the heavenly bodies did not do that made them to put up their best and today we will continue to see as the spirit of God continues to lead and inspire us in Jesus name Amen. COMPLAINTS. Do you remember the parable of the stewards that was entrusted with the talents? The one given one talent refused to trade his talent because he was not giving the same amount with others. The moon and the stars did not complain about the sun shining more than they. The moon did not complain of over shinning while others are not shinning fully. The sun did not complain of giving light to both the moon and the stars rather it was busy encouraging them hence when the moon starts shinning the sun continues to encourage...

BEGIN WITH GOD PT24

*FAITH NUGGET* *BEGIN WITH GOD PT24* *Then God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He made the stars also. God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth*.  *Gen 1:16-17*. We have seen how the heavenly bodies occupied their space in time and each of them mattered when it mattered most and we said that the reason why they were able to put up their best was that they collaborated and cooperated. I will like us to look at some things that may likely hinder us this year if we engage in them by taking a look at the ways the heavenly bodies existed. 1. UNHEALTHY COMPETITION. Do you want to live unhappy this year? If your answer is yes then the best way to do that is to begin to compete with every dick, tom and Harry. Competitions that are not necessary will keep you unhappy and unsatisfied. It will lead you to jealousy and back bitting, complaints and unsatisfied. Unhealthy competition will only make you t...
