YOU WILL FINISH WELL

*LET US PRAY* *(PRAYER FOR THE WEEK)*. *YOU WILL FINISH WELL*. "The hands of Zerubbabel Have laid the foundation of this temple; His hands shall also finish it. Then you will know That the Lord of hosts has sent Me to you. Zachariah 4:9. Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Ps 150:6. According to the spalmist the reason why God keep giving us breath is for us to praise him and so we continue to praise Him because it takes only God to give breath. May His name be praised both now and forever for great things that He has done and for the greater things that He will do in our lives and families by the power in the name of Jesus. Beloved on this beautiful day that the Lord has made as i rejoice with you i pray for you and with you that whatever you have started in this year that seem to have no end i pray for you that the anointing of finishing and finishing well and strong fall upon you now for you to finish all your projects by the power in the name of Jesus. I rebuke eve...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT36

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT36* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. We have seen how generous the new tree(vine) is that He came down so low as to call us His branches and so we are and we saw that every branch depends solely on the tree and we said that it is the will of God that we depend on him as our source and provider and i can authoritatively tell you dear friend that there is no better place to be than to be in the vine(Jesus) It is more than enough that Jesus has chosen to make us a branch in Him but let me also tell us that the same Jesus will never force us to stay or remain in him. Like as it is said "you were created without your input and consent but you cannot be saved without your cooperation) and St Paul will put it this way. *Therefore, my beloved, as you have always ...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT35

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT35* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. What a mighty God we serve, indeed we have come a long way in being enlightened and i believe that none of you that has been reading and sharing this reflection will get blinded by the God of this age by the power in the name of Jesus. Beloved while Jesus is and continues to make efforts that we might be enlightened and come to see the glory of the gospel the devil on the other hand is trying to blind the hearts of many and so we decree that the devil and his agents will not succeed in our lives and all that concerns us in the name of Jesus. Remember that we said that the tree of old was in the middle(midst) of the garden but the new tree(vine) is not just in the middle(midst) but within us, with us and for us but today the...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT34

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT34* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. I trust God that you are already been enlightened in this series because am overwhelmed with what God is revealing in this faith nuggets as i have come to realise that indeed that the labourer is deserving of the first fruit. We have seen that we have been enlightened to enlighten others and that the only way to do that is to avoid compromise. While this new and wonderful tree(vine) has come to make sure that we are enlightened to enable us to enjoy the good things of this new era(salvation) the devil on the other hand knowing full well that this knowledge will make many to escape his manipulation and lies is trying to make sure that men don't come to this light. *Whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT33

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT33* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. We have seen that one of the benefits of embracing the new tree(vine) as against complaining about losing the first one is that the new tree(vine) came to enlighten us about the glory that is within us, with us and for us and not only that yesterday with the help of the holy Spirit we were led to see that we are not only to be enlightened but that we are lights to enlighten others. Just yesterday St Paul was telling us that we must not compromise with those we are meant to enlighten as the reason why we are to enlighten them is that their works which are unfruitful need to be brought to the fruitful and finished work of Christ by exposing them and their work with our light(character and virtues) According to prophet Isaiah...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT31

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT31* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. We have said that this new tree (vine) which replaced or brought better blessings than the tree in the middle of the garden has so many functions and we went ahead to see the functions and we said that one of the functions is to enlighten us to see the glory within us and ahead of us(heaven) and so under the inspiration and guide of the Holy Spirit our our principal we will continue to see more today. Amen!!! We have seen that our vine is the light of the world and not just that He is the light of the world but under this enlightenment series has also told us that we took are the light not to our families and friends but to the world, that is to say that you and i has the capacity to influence the world and by the grace of ...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT30

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT30* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. We are still looking at the benefits of being enlightened if we allow ourselves to be part and parcel of the new tree which is called the "vine" thank God for the privilege to seeing what it means to be part of the vine and today with the help of the Holy Spirit our inspirer we are trusting God to see more. Amen!!! One important thing that i will quickly place on record here is to say that Jesus did not just come to make us see or to enlighten us but to make us light. He is the light of the world and He also told us that we are the light of the world so we are not just to see but we will make others to see. *Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, "I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not wa...

DIVINE PROTECTION

*LET US PRAY* *(PRAYER FOR THE WEEK)*. *DIVINE PROTECTION*. *He shall cover you with His feathers, And under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler*.  *Ps 91:4*. I pray for you and with you that in this new week and beyond that the God of all grace will be your shield, he will so protect you that the enemies of your faith and life will never have access to you and all that belongs to you. Whatever evil that may exit and looking for a place of manifestation I pray on this day that it you not find in you or in any member of your family any means of expressing itself or birthing in the name of Jesus. Henceforth may divine protection be your lot, may you not lack it anytime any day and may it be evident that God is the one protecting you. Henceforth any power or kingdom that want to dare you will know that shame of defeat, the fire of God will answer them, the wrath of God will be kindled against them and their kingdom and they will perpetually perish i...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT29

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT29* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. We are still talking about the enlightenment that comes from knowing God and we said that this enlightenment has enabled us to walk out of the darkness of sin, of ignorance and all the ugly situations that the enemy the devil wants to befall us because he wants us to loose our inheritance in Christ Jesus. *As His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust*. *2 Pet 1:3-4*. In the garden man lost everything but in Christ Jesus all was ...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT28

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT28* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. Yesterday we saw that Jesus our vine has a very important mission in our lives and that mission is to make sure that those that are sitting in darkness and in the shadow of death comes to the fullness of His light especially those in the shadow of ignorance of the craftiness and manipulations of the devil and his agents. *The people who sat in darkness have seen a great light, And upon those who sat in the region and shadow of death Light has dawned*." *Math 4:16*. To sit in darkness is to say that one has given up and is no longer interested in taking further steps or make more efforts hence sitting down is a sign of giving up already. These group of people are not ready to make efforts anymore and in the course of th...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT27

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT27* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. Yesterday we said that one of the qualities of this good tree is of salvation is "enlightenment" and we went ahead to see that this enlightenment starts from or entails knowing God, loving Him, worshipping Him and being ready to be with Him in eternity and today we will start from where we stopped. Having known what it means to be enlightened we will continue to see more on that. To give light to those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death, To guide our feet into the way of peace." Lk 1:79. Zachariah the father of John the Baptist has shown us what it means to be enlightened by Jesus, he tells us that to be enlightened means to pull one out of the darkness of sin which is a product of disobedient to G...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT26

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT26* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. We have been seeing how privileged that we are for the grace that was made available to us to be part of the people that enjoy the benefits of the new tree of life(salvation) we make bold to say that we are privileged because it can only be grace and not all are wise enough to utilise that grace. Thank God for you and i. Amen!!!. We saw that this new tree of life produces wine and wine gladdens the heart of man and apart from gladdening the heart of man this new tree of life has much more benefits which includes enlightenment, wisdom, resilience, longevity, spiritual growth, and connectivity.  All these benefits are to make sure are to show that this new tree of life(the vine) is interested in making sure that our backgroun...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT25

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT25* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. We don't know the name of the tree in the in the midst of the garden but we know the name of the tree in the new garden(salvation) and this new tree is called vine and we know that the vine produces wine and we saw also that the wine makes the heart glad. *Am the vine you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing*. *Jn 15:5*. Jesus our new tree of salvation did not say that am like a tree, no sir, he did not say that I can be likened to a tree, no sir or that he has come to replace the old tree no sir he said categorically that "I am the vine" which keans that with Jesus you don't neet to ask about the old tree, with Jesus we a privileged peopl...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT24

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT24* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. We have seen two sources of life in a tree which is the tree of life, the old tree of life was in the middle while the new tree of life which we identified as Jesus is not interested in being in the middle but with us, within us and for us and we said that the reason why the tree of life is with, within and for us is to give each and everyone of us the opportunity either to choose the tree of life or not. The choice is ours to take  Today we want to take a look at the tree as it was the tree that brought about the loss of Eden and the life giving to man by God because the moment man touched the tree against the will of God man died as commanded by God and Jesus had to come to cancel that curse by shedding His on the tree. W...

LORD LEOAD ME

*LET US PRAY* *(PRAYER FOR THE WEEK)*. * LORD LEOAD ME*. *For the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will shepherd them and lead them to living fountains of waters. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes*." *Rev 7:17*. *This is the day the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it*. *Ps 118:24*. Unto the Lord be the glory for all that he has done and many more that He will continue to do for us and our families especially for making us to see not just another beautiful day but week and so we return all the glory to Him both now and forever. Beloved i pray for you and with you that the Lord that is with you and within and for you will arise for your sake to make a way for you where there is no way and where the enemies of destiny has blocked your way and cause you to prosper in the way that He has made for you by the power in the name of Jesus. May He shepherd your life to places where opportunities of blessings abound, may He lead you to greener pastures. As ...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT23

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT23* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. We have seen midst as in middle in relation to the tree that was in the garden and we went ahead to see that there is a new tree of life which is also in the midst but this time within and with us no longer in the middle as God is in the business of helping man. We have seen from St John's point of view that this source of life is a king and He went ahead to tell us the kind of kingship that this source of life offers. *For the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will shepherd them and lead them to living fountains of waters. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes*." *Rev 7:17*. Having seen the characteristics of this source of life according to st John let us go ahead to ask king David what it means ...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT23

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT23* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. Are you not surprised at the efforts that God has made and is still making to make sure that man is comfortable? He created man and took him personally to the garden that he has made for him and after that He went ahead to plant trees for the man and not just trees but "tree of life" and as if that was not enough He put the tree at the middle for easy access by man and when man failed Him instead of him to be angry at man he went ahead to give man what is better than what He gave him before. What a mighty God we serve. We have seen this new tree of life which is with us and within us and we want to see it from St John's perspective or point of view. *For the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will shepherd...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT22

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT22* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. We have been looking at the tree not in the middle of the garden but the tree of life that is within us and in us as we have come to know that Jesus is the new life giver not in the middle but with us and with us and for us and yesterday we said that the only way to experience the blessings of this life giver with us is to know him, follow him and allow him to live in us and to lead us. We have said it time again that God is in the business of helping man and still in the business and interested in helping only and if only man is ready to accept and take this help and as we have said this help is available if we are ready to go for it King David understood this side of God and he proclaimed it this way. *I will lift up my e...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT21

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT21* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. We started by seeing that there was a tree in the midst of the garden and we said that the word "midst" stands for middle and within, in the old the tree was in the middle but now he is with us because he is interested in helping us and because God is interested in helping we are privileged but God cannot impose his help on us. Having establish the fact that God is with us we must arm ourselves with the following to be able to live in that awareness. First and foremost we must know that if God is for us we must know the God that is with us otherwise we can fall to the deception of the devil. We must also have the necessary Knowledge because it is not about knowing that God is with us but we must know how this Go...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT20

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT20* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. We said yesterday that the new tree(source) of life(Jesus) is in our midst and this time not in the middle as in the old tree of life but with us so that we don't have to stretch ourselves to get to him and as a matter of fact He is the one looking for us not the other way round which is supposed to the the normal way. Jesus the new tree of life who is with us has so many reasons for being with us and St Paul gave us one of the many reasons why He is with us and we will be looking at what St Paul told us is the reason of the tree being in our midst as we proceed. *What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us*? *Rom 8:31*. Remember that God said that it is not good for the man to be a...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT19

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT19* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. We have seen so many trees in the garden, we saw the tree that is good for food, we also saw the tree that was in the middle of the garden that gives life and we saw also that Jesus is the ultimate life giver and today we will continue from where we stopped. Amen!!! The word midst apart from the fact that it signifies middle it also signifies presence, in that context it is playing a dual role, representing the ancient and the new. So Jesus the new source of life is not in the middle for us to go for him but he is presently present in our lives. He is not far from us for us to go all out in search of him but with us. What this means is that if you have not embraced Jesus you have no excuse because He is within and around ...

GOD HAS WIPED AWAY MY TEARS

*LET US PRAY* *(PRAYER FOR THE WEEK)*. *GOD HAS WIPED AWAY MY TEARS*. *For the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will shepherd them and lead them to living fountains of waters. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes*.". *Rev 7:17*. What shall we say into the Lord all we have to say is thank you Lord(2×), thank you Lord, thank you Lord all we have to say is thank you Lord. What else can we say other than thank you Lord because even if we were to give you an offering in accordance with your love and care for us the whole world will be an offering too small to thank you. Beloved i pray for you and with you that the God that wipes away tears will visit you in this season not just to wipe away your tears but to put an end to tears in your life and family especially those secrets tears that no one can understand and those that you cannot discuss with anyone by the power in the name of Jesus. I pray that the oldest and still the youngest in heaven will roll away anything ...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT18

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT18* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. Are you not amazed at what God planned for you and i as the good father that he is especially by giving us a better tree of life in Jesus i want us before we take a look at the branches of this tree to look at things that has to do with this tree. Amen!!! God has placed each one of us in a garden of opportunities of salvation, He may choose to show you the opportunities but will not work it out for you so you have a part to play in your salvation hence St Paul will tell us to do it this way. *Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling*; */Phil2:12*.  It is also necessary to state it here that this salvati...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT1

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT17* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. We have been privileged to see that God as a merciful and loving father and that He has prepare a paradise for Himself and for His prince to live comfortably like Him, He choose to prepare a palace for him(man) and He went ahead to make all necessary provisions for man to live in aboundance. Can you take few minutes to say thank you God for being so good? We looked at the tree in the middle of the garden as the bible told us that the tree is the tree of life and today we are going to be seeing a better tree of life or a life giving tree in the person of Jesus. Remember that we said that even though we lost Eden in the first place that being in God through Jesus is a better Eden. Amen!!! Why did i say that Jesus is a better ...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT16

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT16* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. Yesterday we saw that God made the trees pleasant to the eyes so that we can go for it as what one sees he can possess and we went ahead to see that there is a blessing attached to seeing as we saw in what God said to our father in faith. Abraham and today by the grace of God we will be enlightened the more. Amen!!! One significant thing that i will like us to take a look at today in that passage is what the bible said about the tree, it said that there is one tree in the midst of the garden and that the tree is for life, are you not excited? There are trees for food and there are also trees for life. Wow. It tells me that God did not intend that man should die, infact i believe that the tree of life was to make sure that m...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT15

*FAITH NUGGET* GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT15 *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. Yesterday we saw that the trees that God made for man were good for food because God only gives what is good so God did not make the tree to be pleasant for admiration but for food and we said that the trees were good because God wanted what was good for man or that God wanted and will always want to give man the best of everything. Why did God make the trees to be good? Apart from the fact that God wanted the tree to attract man to it by its pleasantness there is also this blessing in seeing. It is only what you can see that you can pursue and untill you pursue you cannot possess. *And the Lord said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him: "Lift your eyes now and look from the place where you are—northward, southwar...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT14

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT14* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. In our last session on this topic we saw that it is God that makes humans, animals and trees to grow and we have been privileged to know that after creating man that it was God Himself that brought man to this garden to make sure that man does not go to the wrong place and to make sure that man flourish. *Those who are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God*. *Ps 92:13*. Remember that the garden was the house of the Lord and the man that He created He brought to the garden to be planted there so as to make him to flourish and we have seen that we can be planted elsewhere of we choose not to remain where God has planted us. Before i proceed i want to lay hands on one thing today and that is ...

GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT13

*FAITH NUGGET* *GOD IS A GREAT PROVIDER PT13* *And out of the ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil*.  *Gen 2:9*. We have been looking at how God makes us and things to grow because we have been led to be able to establish the fact that it is God that makes to grow though it can be done otherwise but yet if it is not by God it can't be like that done by God. Amen!!!. Having seen that it is God that makes things to grow we will be seeing today what it means to grow because in our generation we hardly hear of growth but of blowing. Everybody wants to blow and nobody wants to grow. One thing that i will like to quickly point out here before i proceed is to say that growth depends to a large extent on the ground on which you are growing. Remember that when God made man that He took the man that He has made to the garden so that man can...

MY EXPECTATIONS WILL BE BIRTHED IN THIS MONTH

*LET US PRAY*  (*PRAYER FOR THE MONTH*) *MY EXPECTATIONS WILL BE BIRTHED IN THIS MONTH* *For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off*. *Prov 23:18*(KJV). Once and again we continue to thank God whose mercies and benevolence we continue to enjoy without any merit or qualifications on our part but by His special love and compassion for us and so we return all the glory to Him both now and forever in Jesus name. Beloved, as i join family, friends and well wishes to congratulate you for the grace of God upon your life that made you to make it to this EMBER months it is my sincere desire, wish and prayer for you that in this month that whatever be your good expectations that all of them will be birthed in a hurry before end of this month by the power in the name of Jesus.
