Thought For The Day: August 24, 2015

Posted on by Uplifting Christ

Today’s prosperity messages have led many people to the Broad way that leads to destruction. Gone are the days when people weep and turn away from their old sinful lives when they hear the Word from the pulpit. Poverty is now referred to as the Old Life whereas riches and power are termed as the New Life. 

What happened to the messages about Purity, Holiness, Sanctification, Repentance, Prayer, Fasting, Forgiveness, etc? Jesus is coming again and what account are we going to give if we shun the message of the Cross?

Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. (‭Matthew‬ ‭7‬:‭13-15‬ KJV)

The Enemy of Your Soul

Posted on by Uplifting Christ

The enemy (Satan) isn’t after your business, he isn’t after your family, neither is he after any physical thing you have. Satan is after your soul. He knows that you came naked, and you will leave the same. Therefore what matters to him most is your soul.

When your days on earth are over, and your soul leaves the body, where would your soul be? Would it be in eternity with God, or Satan? Nothing really matters to God than your soul for whom Jesus came to die. John 3:16 says “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Satan, on the other hand, doesn’t want to go to the lake of fire alone. He is after your soul.

Satan knows what you desire, and he is aware of your greatest fear. As a result, he attacks you in the way(s) that will shift your focus from God. He seeks to destroy your love for God. When you take three people for instance, Satan will attack the first one’s family, the second one’s job, and the last one’s properties. He works in various ways but his mission is to make God’s children doubt God’s love for them. When he achieves this, he would then be able to destroy their love for God which in effect will make them his servants.

Satan can also add up to what you have through evil ways which may be right in your sight. You may say “Well, everyone is doing it. It is normal to steal, deceive, lie, etc to make money, or seek dark powers for money.” When He comes this way, remember what Jesus said that “For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?” (Mark 8:36, 37 KJV)

“Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passes away, and the lust thereof: but he that does the will of God stays for ever.” (1 John 2:15-17)

Friend Satan is after your soul. However, he can’t touch you when you take delight in the things of God. That is when you allow your love for God to supersede everything you do. In that way, you dwell in the secret place of the Most High and Jesus holds you securely. You walk on the narrow road that leads to eternal life. When you are on the narrow road, you lead a restrictive life. In other words, you limit yourself to the things of God, and that the things of this world mean nothing to you.

“Consider how precious a soul must be, when both God and the devil are after it.” Charles Spurgeon

I pray the Holy Spirit guides you, and protects your soul from the evil one in Jesus’ Name. Amen

GOD’S FAVOR

Posted on by Uplifting Christ

In our daily lives, we face challenges; some huge, and some small. We struggle to fix things our own ways. We prefer to carry our heavy burdens alone, ignoring the fact that God cares.

“Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.”

God cares and His favor will make life easy for you.

Favor is deceitful. Favor ain’t fair. God’s Favor will make things go your way when you don’t deserve them. It will do stuff the way you want them to be. You may not understand but people will break rules for you. A touch of God’s favor – all your struggles, pains, fears, sorrows will disappear.

Esther was accepted because of the Favor of God. Samuel was loved because of God’s Favor. David had the Favor of God. Joseph had that too. Noah, Gideon, Moses, Mary, Jesus, etc. all had the Favor of God. Am not so surprised they could do supernatural things on earth. You have the Favor of God. I heard the story of Bishop T.D Jakes; he had a touch of God’s Favor and that made him who he is today.

When you have a touch of God’s favor, you will produce amazing results. Where others failed to win, you will go there, do the same thing, and you will win. Where others are rejected, you will be accepted. Friends, Families, Strangers will always be confused about your life. They will cease to understand your life because of the extraordinary things you will do.

Be encouraged today that God’s favor will turn your life around for good in Jesus’ Name.

The LORD gave special strength to Elijah. He tucked his cloak into his belt and ran ahead of Ahab‘s chariot all the way to the entrance of Jezreel.

Today, I pray God gives you special Strength to do things you couldn’t do before. I pray he impacts Speed upon your life. I believe the Power of God, the Mercy of God, and the Favor of God will be your portion. The Holy Spirit will order your steps. I call an end to every negative situation in Jesus’ Name! May you begin to experience supernatural victories, supernatural miracles, signs, and wonders in the mighty Name of Jesus! Amen.
