INsPIRED LIVING FOR CHRIST OR PLEASURE When you live for Christ, Christ is your priority. Daily, you seek for ways to please Him and do the works of the Kingdom. When you live for pleasure is all about you first, your comfort, your interest, your way. Philippians 2:3-8 summaries it accurately. "Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death — even death on a cross! Philippians 2:3-8 A. L. Hephzibah

INsPIRED JESUS WAS GOD YET LIVE WISELY AS A MAN I appreciate God for your beautiful lives and for your eagerness to read God's Word. I pray His Word will enrich your destiny. Uuuuh, I was studying the Life of my Lord Jesus  in the book of John 7  (deliberately I used Jesus instead of Jesus Christ) because in this Bible passage, I saw more of His humanity than divinity. In John 7:1, the Bible says "After this, Jesus went around in Galilee. He did not want to go about in Judea because the Jewish leaders there were looking for a way to kill him." Jesu Christ is the Anointed one who had the Spirit without measure and had thousand upon thousands of angels at His disposal, therefore any threat from the Jewish leaders to take His life should be a play at futility. Yet he avoided a particular location because of their evil plots at that period in time. LESSONS FROM THIS STORY Jesus lived a very careful  and discreet life. He was not a careless Son of God who  exposed his d

INsPIRED "Jesus’ brothers said to him, “Leave Galilee and go to Judea, so that your disciples there may see the works you do. No one who wants to become a public figure acts in secret. Since you are doing these things, show yourself to the world.” For even his own brothers did not believe in him." John 7 We don't win souls, pray, fast, give and do offering with other  kingdom business and activities for fame, for the applauds of men,  for profiting; our motive is not to become public figures even if our relatives and family are on our necks to produce results if indeed God is with us. We win souls, pray, fast, heal to do the works of our Father as Christ did. Have a beautiful week. A. L. Hephzibah

INsPIRED "For even his own brothers did not believe in him. Therefore Jesus told them, “My time is not yet here; for you any time will do. The world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify that its works are evil. You go to the festival. I am not going up to this festival, because my time has not yet fully come.” After he had said this, he stayed in Galilee. However, after his brothers had left for the festival, he went also, not publicly, but in secret."  John 7 The Bible made a statement about our Lord Jesus  in Luke 2:52 "And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man." The wisdom of God is demonstrated in the action of our Lord Jesus in John 7. He hid His plans and intentions from His brothers who did not believe in His ministry at that time. Although many believe that blood is thicker than water. Our Lord Jesus chose to follow the Word and the leasing of the Spirit instead of following His blood relatives desires. Thank G

INsPIRED The AGE OF THE LEAVENED  BREAD There are different dispensations in the Church History and each dispensation has its peculiarities, strengths, weaknesses, challenges and its problems. One of the problems of this dispensation in  Church History  is the rapid spread of  Leavened Bread. Our Saviour warned in the Book of Matthew 16 "How is it you don’t understand that I was not talking to you about bread? But be on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.” Then they understood that he was not telling them to guard against the yeast used in bread, but against the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees. Matt 16:11-12' This is  era of Bread  mixed with YEAST (Be on Guard) # Where a small dough of bread is made to appear bigger than its original size ( You can be deceived) # Bread consumers  are attracted to get more than their money value but ultimately get far less than its true value (each man is drew by his/her lust, guard your heart, your

WORD FROM CHRIST THE CHURCH OF CHRIST IS AT THE VERGE OF SEVERE PERSECUTION YET WE ACT & LIVE AS IF ALL IS WELL. The Disciples of Christ in previous generations of   Church History lived such sacrificial lifestyles that seem almost humanly impossible but you will observe that it was made easy for them because of the grace of the Almighty God. Presently in the world, there are men who are doing much more than the believers in terms of diligence and sacrifices in making the world a living hell for the human race.  Such men go to great extends to keep men and women in bondage to the enemy of their soul by spreading false religion, immorality, heresies, pain, agony, etc and they suffer pains bodily and mentally achieving their evil missions.  There are technocrats, business men, scientists, economists etc, who work hard to create new inventions; they spend all day and all night studying, reading, researching, inventing and re-inventing new things to sustain humanity and also leave
