We live in a world where we struggle to ensure things are done the right way. Even with that, when given a task to be done, sometimes we take the task lightly, just because we don’t consider the person involved seriously, but when it’s a highly reputable person or someone who is wealthy, we tend to do the task quickly by putting our backs into it. But sometimes even with the fact that we get things done for the reputable person, we sometimes grumble. The Amplified version of Colossians 3:23 says, “whatever may be your task, work at it heartily (from the soul), as [something done] for the Lord and not for men.”
We are expected to do things with the heart that God is the one we are doing it for. As Believers, God has called us into the kingdom of Jesus Christ of whom we believe by faith. Jesus said before He went back to heaven, that we should go into all the world and preach the gospel to the ends of the earth, but how are we to do this in our daily lives?
Going by Colossians 3:23, whatever we are to do is to be done to the glory of God. Apostle Paul who wrote letter to the Colossians definitely must have related verse 3:23 to Matthew 25:31-46 where Jesus about Himself on the last day as a King where He said, “I was hungry and you gave Me food; thirsty and you gave Me drink; stranger and you took Me in; naked and you clothed Me; in prison and you came to Me.” The King in the parable said “Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me” (Matthew 25:40 NKJV).
Our attitude is to reflect Christ, no matter how annoying or painful the situation may be, we are sent here to set a new and good example as God has given us the Grace to live His lives which we live by faith. For the just shall live by faith and faith comes from the regular study of the Word of God which is the way we get transformed by the renewing of our minds, reminding us who our true nature is, which is the very nature of Christ.
Our attitude is what makes people want to know about Christ and then we fulfil the mandate given to us by Jesus which is the great commission. Remember, “whatever may be your task, work at it heartily (from the soul), as [something done] for the Lord and not for men.”
Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you’re are now brand new!

With Due Respect
Really, there is nothing as difficult as being a leader, making decisions for a body. Everyone seems to wait for your decision before doing anything and what you decide has to favour who you lead positively. This is so with Spiritual leadership, and this is why we Believers are to give respect to our Spiritual leaders. Respect and NOT worship your leaders; respect, because of all they have to go through in maintaining orderliness.
Apostle Paul said in 1 Thessalonians 5:12-13, that we especially Believers are to hold our leaders who are over us in the Lord in very high and most affectionate esteem in appreciation of their work. This is true because, first of all God prevents us from going astray through our Spiritual leaders. They warn and kindly reprove you and exhort you, all in ensuring you grow in strength with grace in the Lord Jesus.
But as Romans 10:17 which says, “So faith comes by hearing [what is told], and what is heard comes by the preaching [of the message that came from the lips] of Christ (the Messiah Himself). (AMP). Now as Romans 10:14-15 in the Amplified version, which says “But how are people to call upon Him Whom they have not believed [in Whom they have no faith, on Whom they have no reliance]? And how are they to believe in Him [adhere to, trust in, and rely upon Him] of Whom thy have never heard? And how are they to hear without a preacher? And how can men [be expected to] preach unless they are sent? As it is written, How beautiful are the feet of those who bring glad tidings! [How welcome is the coming of those who preach the good news of His good things!]
In other words God has to send our leaders to us, our leaders have to listen attentively to carry the right message of faith to us, and when this message is disseminated we hear the Word and believe by faith which channels our heart more to Jesus. So you see our leaders need to hear the right message from God, or else they could lead the church astray.
Not only are we to give our spiritual leaders respect, we are to pray for them because if they don’t hear the right thing, we then believe the wrong thing and we move far away from the faith and the truth. They are humans like we are; we are to pray their flesh doesn’t take control of their decisions. Why not pray for your leaders today and see God move through them and through you Spiritually.
Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!

Don't Be Caught Unaware
The scriptures says Jesus will come like a thief in the night just as sudden labour pains upon a woman. This expression doesn’t imply Jesus coming at night, it just implies Jesus coming unannounced, just the way the thief and the labour pain come unannounced too. This sounds like a warning to all of us, but are we expected to be surprised at the sudden appearance of Jesus’ coming?
Every day we wake up to fine things going on steadily and in a comfortable manner, that we plan, we even say things like, “see you tomorrow” or “I’ll buy that next week”, all these and more without even considering the truth that our plans for the future might be stopped with the sudden return of Jesus. Don’t get me wrong, having goals isn’t bad at all, but when goals are set we shouldn’t be negligent of the fact that that day might be the last before His coming.
Apostle Paul said the coming of the Lord to us shouldn’t come as a surprise to us, just as he put in 1 Thessalonians 5:4 which says, “But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief.” Paul was referring to believers here saying those who are unsaved are easily carried away by their selfish ambition and goals, and do not bother if the present day could be their last or not.
Apostle Paul said being a Believer, we are to live as Sons of light and Sons of the day, therefore, we are not to sleep as others do, but we are to watch and be sober, calm, collected, being ready at any time. It takes faith to do this, so we are to put on the breastplate of faith and love, and helmet of salvation. This is why we are expected not to forget the great commission which is to go into all the world and preach the gospel.
We shouldn’t be carried away by where we work and how much money is given to us, we have been sent for a purpose, so no matter where you are, whether at work, school, home, wherever, the great commission must be achieved, then we should stay alert and also get others saved and at the end of the day we get a powerful “well done, good and faithful servant”.
I challenge you today to refocus your reason for being sent where you are, which is to get the unsaved saved, because “whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16b NKJV). Not perishing is one thing, having eternal life is another which is the major factor, which is to have a solid relationship with the Father through the Son, Jesus Christ. This is important so those who are unsaved shouldn’t be caught unaware.
Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!

Where Do You Place Your Decisions?
Are you that person who is not stable in their thoughts; today a decision is made, tomorrow another and so on. You seem not to be stable in the way you handle things. Jesus explained to us that if we listen to His words and do them, we would be likened to the man who built his house on the rock. No matter the situation and circumstance that was faced, it didn't affect the house because it was founded on the rock. On the other hand, the man who hears the word but doesn't put it to practice is likened to the foolish man who built house on the sand; every situation and circumstances faced affected the house which eventually collapsed.
The house represents your life and Jesus is explaining to us that His sayings serve as a solid foundation for our lives and every decisions made which brings wisdom and victory even on the last day. Why don't you trust Jesus today by meditating on His words today and putting His Words to use and see our lives become victorious in every way because He Himself is Victory personified.
Why not accept Jesus today if you haven't. Pray out loud, "Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me."

Be The Light
Have you ever encountered an issue or a problem which could related to health, finance, security and so on; and you kept on battling with it? You read books on how to tackle the problem, observed how others tackled it; true you seem to be tackling the problem, but the problem didn't disappear. The question is why does this keep happening? I'll tell you why. The obvious answer is that we seem not to have a permanent solution to our problems. In other words we could be likened to people kept in a very large dark room, where the solution is but can't find it. The first thing that comes to your mind is to get light!
Jesus said in John 8:12, "I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life." NKJV. In other words Jesus said He is the solution to the world's problems which includes yours. But because we were born to meet darkness, we have grown to think darkness is the way of life, we have decided to accept our health challenge, our financial challenge, our security challenge and other challenges. So when someone brings something different which you can't find in any theory, but solves your problems, you quickly push it out. But has your situation gotten any better?
Why not throw away your ego and look unto Jesus whom you assumed is wasting His time; and get your problems solved. To show us how generous He is, He has made provision for anyone who wants to be a light bearer just like Himself; this you would get only by believing Him.
For He Himself said, "You're here to be light, bringing out the God-colors in the world. God is not a secret to be kept. We're going public with this, public as a city on a hill. If I make you light -bearers, you don't think I'm going to hide you under a bucket, do you? I'm putting you on a light stand: Now that I've put you there on a hilltop, on a light stand-shine! Keep open house; be generous with your lives. By opening up to others, you'll prompt people to open up with God, the generous Father in heaven." Matthew 5:14-16 Message.
So, as you meet Jesus who would give you the solution, you shouldn't be selfish, share it with others and as you do so, you become a light-bearer, showing others the way out of their problems; and the praises go to the original bringer of light, Jesus.
Why not accept Jesus today if you haven't. Pray out loud, "Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank you for saving me!"

The Executive, Legislature and Judiciary
In a typical democracy, there are three arms of government, the Executive, Legislature, and Judiciary. The Executive arm of government is responsible for implementing and administering the public policy enacted and funded by the legislative branch. The Legislative branch of government is responsible for enacting the laws of the state and appropriating the money necessary to operate the government. While the Judicial branch is responsible for interpreting the constitution and laws applying their interpretations to controversies brought before them.
When I looked at these three arms government, I marvelled because this system was copied and I believed it was a great inspiration from God Himself; this is also because this is the system of the Trinity in other words this is how God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit operate! I’m sure you’re like ‘huh?’ but it is. Now let’s take a look; God the Father is the Executive, God the Son is the Legislator, while the Holy Spirit is the Judiciary.
Let’s take a look at the Genesis of the book of Genesis, when God said “let there be light” in Genesis 1:3, it was with faith just as Hebrews 11:3 says, “By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.” To say you declare a thing through faith implies it is seen as having existed even before they exist. In other words it is clear to say God created the universe in accordance with the principles of faith itself, thus falling in line with the roll of the Executive who is responsible for implementing and administering the public policy enacted by the legislative branch.
The executive role played by God the Father is also in line with John 1:3, which says, “All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.” This shows God the Son acting the Legislative role of whom nothing happens without going through Him; just the way we understand nothing is enacted in a country without going through the Legislature.
Philippians 2:9-11 explains how God the Son is the Legislator, as seen in verse 9 which says, “Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name.” God raised the position of God the Son above Him, even though it is still Him but in another person. This shows God the Father respects order.
For God the Holy Spirit, let’s look at John 14:16 in the Amplified version which says, “And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Comforter (Counselor, Healer, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, and Standby), that He may remain with you forever.” The Holy Spirit who stands as the Judiciary interprets what legislator has put down as law.
Now, we know that for us the word of God (Bible) is what the Legislator has put down for us; it is the Holy Spirit who interprets the scriptures to us; this is why the Holy Spirit doesn’t just tell us things we haven’t at one point or the other studied. So, it is important for us to meditate on the scriptures in order for the Holy Spirit to explain what we’ve studied.
So, whatever God the Father does, He ensures it is in line with the principle laid down by God the Son and the interpretation of God the Holy Spirit; this is why in Genesis 1:26 God said “Let Us [Father, Son and Holy Spirit] make mankind in Our image, after Our likeness...” AMP. So when God says He has blessed us with all Spiritual blessings [ref. Ephesians 1:3], just know that it a collective effort of the Trinity, and no power or authority can stand against that the declaration made.
However, the Executive, Legislator and the Judiciary are embodied in one being who acts as three persons. This is the Gospel Truth.
Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!

Life Requires Diligence And Discipline NOT Struggle
Success is an important thing everyone in life would love to achieve, but many believe in achieving success, it requires struggle. Although, people add diligence and discipline which is good, but how is it possible to be so successful without a part of struggle? There is a lot of burning of candle, sleepless night and other related things, but the point here is that it is wrongly channelled. So let’s see how to achieve true diligence and discipline without struggle.
Solomon the wisest man said in the book of Proverbs 4:7-9 which says, “Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding. Exalt her, and she will promote you; she will place on your head an ornament of grace; a crown of glory she will deliver to you”; and in verses 11 and 12 it says, “I have taught you in the way of wisdom; I have led you in right paths. When you walk, your steps will not stumble” NKJV. Wisdom is an important aspect in achieving success, Solomon tells us to incline our ears to wisdom by searching for it as one seek for silver and search for hidden treasure. But with all these, Solomon told us where to get wisdom, he said the LORD gives wisdom and from His mouth comes knowledge and understanding.
People struggle using their own mind, knowledge and degrees to achieve success, but success comes from wisdom. It is in the achievement of wisdom we are to have sleepless night for, burn candles for, why? This is because when we gain wisdom, everything we intend to do becomes a work over and not struggle. To achieve wisdom it requires discipline and diligence, this is the area we are to put all our effort, because wisdom is the key to success. But where does wisdom come from? From God!
1 Corinthians 1:24 says Jesus is the wisdom of God; so once Jesus is in your heart, it implies you have wisdom beyond human knowledge. And remember, the wisdom comes with Grace; you receive deep insights which makes you wise. An example of someone who was filled with the wisdom of God is Jesus with reference to when He was here on earth; have you ever wondered why He couldn’t get any question wrong? The answer is simple; Jesus didn’t rely on His human understanding, but on God’s understanding.
Jesus was uneducated formerly, that is He didn’t go to a formal school, yet He knew beyond any man [ref. John 7:15]. The truth is that the wisdom of God is God’s wisdom and not your wisdom; therefore since God is all-knowing then and no one knows more than He does, once you have His wisdom you have more understanding than your teachers. What you just need to do is to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit.
You have to be discipline and diligent when it comes to searching wisdom. Apostle James said, “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.” James 1:5 NKJV; he went ahead saying, “But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways. James 1:6-8 NKJV. When you ask for wisdom from God, you have to believe that God is the giver of wisdom and believe that you have received it, and see wisdom in action.
Always depend on God when faced with a difficult situation. When I face any difficult situation, I always say, ‘Holy Spirit give me the wisdom to know what to do’, and before I know it a great idea come my way which is just perfect for the situation. Don’t be scared that you are not qualified for certain responsibilities given to you, just push all your worries to God and ask Him for wisdom to know what to do, this is what God regards as humility; and because you have depended on God, He would exalt you by giving you a way out of every situation that troubles you; it takes discipline and diligence NOT struggle [1 Peter 5:6-7]. To struggle is to do things without the help of God, and also mixing your wisdom and God’s wisdom, it doesn’t work that way, it has to be completely God’s wisdom.
With God, there are no struggles because with the wisdom of God, He reveals the path we are to take, all we need to do is just to follow the path but most of all is to meditate and receive constant flow of God’s wisdom. This is the Gospel Truth.
Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!

Exalt her, and she will promote you; she will place on your head an ornament of grace; a crown of glory she will deliver to you”; and in verses 11 and 12 it says, “I have taught you in the way of wisdom; I have led you in right paths. When you walk, your steps will not stumble” NKJV. Wisdom is an important aspect in achieving success, Solomon tells us to incline our ears to wisdom by searching for it as one seek for silver and search for hidden treasure. But with all these, Solomon told us where to get wisdom, he said the LORD gives wisdom and from His mouth comes knowledge and understanding.
People struggle using their own mind, knowledge and degrees to achieve success, but success comes from wisdom. It is in the achievement of wisdom we are to have sleepless night for, burn candles for, why? This is because when we gain wisdom, everything we intend to do becomes a work over and not struggle. To achieve wisdom it requires discipline and diligence, this is the area we are to put all our effort, because wisdom is the key to success. But where does wisdom come from? From God!
1 Corinthians 1:24 says Jesus is the wisdom of God; so once Jesus is in your heart, it implies you have wisdom beyond human knowledge. And remember, the wisdom comes with Grace; you receive deep insights which makes you wise. An example of someone who was filled with the wisdom of God is Jesus with reference to when He was here on earth; have you ever wondered why He couldn’t get any question wrong? The answer is simple; Jesus didn’t rely on His human understanding, but on God’s understanding.
Jesus was uneducated formerly, that is He didn’t go to a formal school, yet He knew beyond any man [ref. John 7:15]. The truth is that the wisdom of God is God’s wisdom and not your wisdom; therefore since God is all-knowing then and no one knows more than He does, once you have His wisdom you have more understanding than your teachers. What you just need to do is to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit.
You have to be discipline and diligent when it comes to searching wisdom. Apostle James said, “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.” James 1:5 NKJV; he went ahead saying, “But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways. James 1:6-8 NKJV. When you ask for wisdom from God, you have to believe that God is the giver of wisdom and believe that you have received it, and see wisdom in action.
Always depend on God when faced with a difficult situation. When I face any difficult situation, I always say, ‘Holy Spirit give me the wisdom to know what to do’, and before I know it a great idea come my way which is just perfect for the situation. Don’t be scared that you are not qualified for certain responsibilities given to you, just push all your worries to God and ask Him for wisdom to know what to do, this is what God regards as humility; and because you have depended on God, He would exalt you by giving you a way out of every situation that troubles you; it takes discipline and diligence NOT struggle [1 Peter 5:6-7]. To struggle is to do things without the help of God, and also mixing your wisdom and God’s wisdom, it doesn’t work that way, it has to be completely God’s wisdom.
With God, there are no struggles because with the wisdom of God, He reveals the path we are to take, all we need to do is just to follow the path but most of all is to meditate and receive constant flow of God’s wisdom. This is the Gospel Truth.
Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
