Every believer when they become born again becomes part of the church. This is the universal church, the church which Christ gave Himself for. However there is also the local church. You can never realise or actualise the universal church without the local church. The church life is practiced in the local church. You must be a part of the local church.

Practicing The Local Church

God can give up on you, on a nation and on a generation. The wrath of God can come from, eternal wrath, end time wrath, cataclysmic wrath, consequential wrath and the foresaken wrath of God. The foresaken wrath of God is when God completely gives up on you.

When God Gives Up On... Pt 1

The Christ rejecting generation is an evil generation. The death of Christ saves us from eternal damnation and His life saves us from a wicked generation. If you want a brand new world, you need people with a renewed heart. Jesus is the only one who can change our hearts from the inside out.

Save Us From This Generation, O Lord

The Christian life begins with faith and is sustained with love towards God. As believers, we must continue in the faith and ensure we do not walk away from the hope of the gospel; they work hand in hand. Faith, love and hope are the three dimensions of a Christian life. If these three abound in us, we will experience the great blessing we have in God.

The Three Dimensional Christian Life

Before the fall, plant life was for feeding. After the fall, they needed the animal life for feeding and redeeming. Jesus is the Lamb of God for our feeding and for our redeeming. This is why He said we should eat His flesh and drink His blood. To eat Christ means to believe in Christ. When you believe in Christ, it means you are feeding on Him.

Eat My Flesh And Drink My Blood

Life can be challenging and come with unexpected incidents and situations. God will not give up on you, so don’t give up on God. In the difficult times and in the stress of life, count your blessings and not your burdens

Count Your Blessings, Not Your Burdens

If God is going to speak to you, He will do so through an authorised agent (prophet). A prophet is someone who speaks forth on behalf of God in the interest of God’s eternal agenda. You cannot accept Jesus and detach Him from the prophets. The testimony of Jesus is the core, the essence and the spirit of prophecy.

I Believe The Prophets

Life is full of seasons. As long as we remain on this earth, there will be a season for everything. You might go through a season of difficulty or hard times, but this is not permanent. Jesus also went through such a season. For Christ, the cross was that season but, it wasn’t permanent. The only permanent thing in life is God’s word and God’s promise. If you are going through a time or season that seems difficult or frustration, rest assured that it is not the end and there are better days ahead.

What To Do In Times Of Crisis

There are vital keys for understanding the Bible. Without these, you can’t get understand word of God.  God cannot be researched, God is revealed. God cannot be discovered, He reveals Himself. It takes the Spirit of God to understand the Bible therefore it can only be understood by a person whose spirit is subjected to God. The more your spirit is open to God with reverence, the more you will understand the Bible.

Basic Principles For Understanding The Bible

We must look for the God factor in every area of our lives, this means that God must be the builder, maker and foundation; of the important areas of our lives. In everything we encounter, from relationships to any personal pursuits, there must be a God factor within it. 
To do this, we must make a shift from focusing on how we feel, to walking by faith and see what God is impressing on us. Building our lives on a Godly foundation is an essential part of this. We must make the choice to walk by faith. When we do this, we put our confidence in God and move away from fear

The God Factor

God answers based on us calling His Name. When we ask in His Name it shall be given unto us. This message teaches us what happens, when we call on the name of the Lord. When we call on the name of the Lord the following things happen: God hears us, he comes down to help us, he will show us what to do and raises a deliverer or a prophet on our behalf.

Call On His Name
