At the Synagogue..
Jesus sat and watched two categories of people,those who put in money into the offering box out of their wealth and those who put in what they cherished most. Jesus sat down and watched....
What you give is not important to Jesus as the way you give it.
Giving makes us like unto God who gives to all but receives from none.
When we give, we are to give in humility and humbling. When you give in humility and humbling, we give for God's sake.
When we give for God's sake, we shall receive a hundredth fold.

Romans 12:8
Owe nothing to anyone- except your obligation to love one another. If you love your neighbor, you will fulfill the requirements of God's law. For the commandments say,"You must not commit adultery. You must not murder." You must not steal. You must not covet. These and other such commandments- are summed up in one commandment:
THINK ABOUT THAT
When you live according to your destiny, you become an authority in your calling.
If you are destined to be a fisherman, you become an authority in it...you can become a billionaire through your destiny
Do not copy other people's destiny thinking that you will succeed but follow your own that you may become an authority in it.

To those who are Going to school, God has told me to tell you to study hard as if your life depends on it and pray hard as if all you do in your studies depends on God .
By Ezekiel Minja.
THINK ABOUT THAT AND SHARE TO OTHERS
In whatever situation you are in, either bad dreams or arguments or divorce or anything else, Remember that God has something to say....
THINK ABOUT THAT
By Ezekiel Minja
I meet a lot of people expressing the desire to be spirit filled.
I applaud that... for it is a good thing
But you must be grounded in the word of God before you're spirit filled as there will be nothing for the Holy Spirit to remind you of.

THIS MESSAGE IS AN EYE OPENER!
Let me tell you all my brothers and sisters, we may think that we may be fulfilling all the commandments of our Lord God but we are not.
YOU MAY ASK WHY?
Let me open your eyes....
The word of God says that you shall not steal.
But we forget that we even steal from God himself.
God blesses us with possessions and all wealth but we do not even offer him with any tithe and offerings...
God says,"Should people cheat God? Yet you have cheated me! But you ask what do you mean? When did we ever cheat you?"
"You have cheated me of the tithes and offering due to me. You are under a curse for your all nation has been cheating me..."Malachi 3:8-9
So people let us not cheat God for we make it seem to the Lord that it is wrong for him to bless us. We must know and remember that everything we have is from HIM and so we should learn to give back. Some might say there minister of God after money... but that is not the only option.
There are people in the streets without food, poor etc learn to give to them for when you give for God's sake to them you are giving what you have received to God.
We make a life from what we give and we make a living from what we receive.
Remember, you are a solution to someones problems
SHARE THIS MESSAGE THAT ALL MAY KNOW AND THEIR EYES BE OPENED!Amen
LOVE IS THE GREATEST PART 1
Whatsoever you do to your neighbors you do to Jesus. That is why Jesus asked Peter "Do you love me?" Three times
Through this, Jesus made it clear that if you love him you will do to others what you expect them to do to you and treat you no matter if that person is your enemy or a person in need.
There three great things that will last in this world...faith, hope and love... but love is the greatest...
Whether you are a farmer or a rich man the only thing that may bring you close to Jesus is loving Jesus or in other words loving others.
As a Christian you are to have two ministries in order to prosper and see the face of God in you life: These ministries are the ministry of Charity and that of which you were called by God to be...
Anyone who loves is a child of God so as Christians we need to learn to love our neighbors as ourselves.
PRAYER
Lord give me your loving heart in Jesus name! AMEN.
A member of the church, who previously had been
attending services regularly, stopped going. After a
few
weeks, the pastor decided to visit him. It was a chilly evening. The pastor found the man at
home alone, sitting before a blazing fire. Guessing the
reason for his pastor's visit, the man welcomed him,
led him to a comfortable chair near the fireplace and
waited. The pastor made himself at home but said nothing. In
the grave silence, he contemplated the dance of the
flames around the burning logs. After some minutes,
the pastor took the fire tongs, carefully picked up a
brightly burning ember and placed it to one side of the
hearth all alone then he sat back in his chair, still silent. The host watched all this in quiet contemplation. As
the one lone ember's flame flickered and diminished,
there
was a momentary glow and then its fire was no more.
Soon it was cold and dead. Not a word had been spoken since the initial
greeting.The pastor glanced at his watch and realized
it was time
to leave. He slowly stood up, picked up the cold, dead
ember and placed it back in the middle of the fire.
Immediately it began to glow, once more with the light and warmth of the burning coals around it. As the pastor reached the door to leave, his host said
with a tear running down his cheek, 'Thank you so
much
for your visit and especially for the fiery sermon. I will
be back in church We live in a world today, which tries to say too much
with too little. Consequently, few listen. Sometimes the
best sermons are the ones left unspoken.
God's word refreshes our mind and His Spirit renews our strength.
The more you think about God's word, the more you become familiar with God's voice and the more the spirit can act upon the word.
To walk with power, move with power, sleep with power, talk with power it is necessary to meditate in God's word.
There is no power in the flesh.
To the extent we stand to obey God's word the spirit shall be released within us.
The more we stand to read and understand God's word the more the Word of God changes your mind, your heart and your character.
Christianity is not in the flesh.
We are to manage and guard your heart... be careful of what you think of for your heart is heaven.
You have to learn to walk with heaven
Christ and the word are one therefore Christ has no position in your life without His word
We position our selves for God's favour by reading the word and acting on it
PRAYER
Lord Jesus may you make your words abide in me and me in you in Jesus name! AMEN
“Our personal cares for the present, future, family and others are capable of changing our focus from running the straight race with God, especially when they arise from unbelief and distrust. Therefore, don’t be agitated and thrown into confusion. Worries about tomorrow do not advance our cause at all; they are absolutely useless. Remember that anxiety distracts one’s mind and hinders our interest in the service of God”.
“Free yourself in the Word of God. When your spirit is free, it becomes sensitive to the Spirit of God. Do you want a free spirit? Keep your heart from cares. He who bore the burdens of our sorrows, worries, fears, cares and anxieties desires us to leave it entirely for Him because He alone knows what it takes to give us rest. Why don’t we trust Him and let Him prove Himself? After all, He is the Governor of our future – He owns the future
Prophets and pastor are sent to utter the deep things of God for the conviction of sins, for edification and comfort.
Prophesy is not necessarily predictions on future events but preaching and preaching the Word with power.
That power is received when we are adopted by the Holy Spirit.
When you read the book of Genesis 1:1-... we see that God created the heavens and the earth in six days and on the seventh day he rested.
When you read your bible it tells us for God a thousand years are a passing day.
So the six days used by God to create heavens and the earth are equal to six thousand years hence proved.
The bible does not deny that the earth is a billion of years... you may ask how let me tell you...
When you read the Book of Genesis 1:1it says,
"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and empty, and darkness covered the deep waters. And the spirit of God was hovering over the surface of waters.
Through this we see that,"In the beginning God created heavens and the earth," there is the use of two past tense as I may say which are beginning and created. This shows us that God did not create the earth by the time of Genesis 1:1 but the earth and waters were already there. That's why when you read the second verse it says the earth was formless and empty and darkness covered the deep waters...
Through this we find a clear prove that the earth was not really created by that moment but it had already been there...
But the bible tells us that everything God creates is good... then a question may arise in your minds, why was the earth formless and what thing or creature made it formless?
We do not see God creating the waters or any darkness but it was there...
When we come to read the book of Ezekiel 28:12-18
We discover that there was someone living in the earth when the earth was first created and he was the one who caused the earth's destruction...
Doubt can become sin if it leads you far from God.
As you move closer to God in the midst of doubt will move you to making your faith stronger in God.
Satan wants you to think of what you do not have... and if you are thinking of what you do not have that will lead you to an unhealthy doubt...
Never doubt Gods desire and ability to help you.
1Samuel 17:23
God gives everyone plenty of evidence to believe in Him.
Doubt comes when we fail to stop long enough to observe all the evidence.
Many of us were born into poverty striking families but today we are able to live above all that.
When you have doubt review God's track record in your life. When you are struggling wit doubt take time to remember what God has done for you in your past life that you may grow confident in God.
As you take time to recall what God has done for you in your life you will be confident that He will be able to solve your present situation.
Doubt can move one closer to God.
If one genuinely seek God in the midst of doubt God does not mind for it shall help you to trust more in Him.
God is spirit and He is to be worshiped in spirit and in Truth. The word of God is the sword of the Holy Spirit because the Holy Spirit talks to you depending on the word of God in you. Ephesians 6:17
It is only through the word that the Holy Spirit will tell you that this or that is from God or from the devil. For in everything we do we are to examine it in the light of God's word. Everything we read from various books and other things which talk about God are to be examined in the light of God's word. Everything you hear from various people, whether prophets or priests or pastors and others should be examined in the light of God's word for the word of God is the Truth and the life. It is only through the word that we are strengthened.
We as Christians have one common enemy that is Satan himself. We usually underestimate his power and ability because of the authority we were given by the Most High Living God through Jesus Christ who died in order to reconcile us with the living God. It was through Jesus Christ that we were given a helper known as the Holy spirit. He is the one to guide as through our Christian life... other than that we see that many Christians underestimate the power of the enemy. From this teaching we will get to know more about the enemy and how he operates in our lives because of underestimating and being ignorant about the word of God.
THE ENEMY!
Well lets begin!
We know that the Lord God has many plans for our lives and for oud future if we agree to follow Him but at the same time Satan has 1000 plans gor which he can destroy us. The Lord destroys 999 of Satan's plans but still one out of the three plans succeed in getting us of the right track with God who loves us to such an extent.

"Who has believed our message?
To whom has the Lord revealed his
powerful arm?" Isaiah 53:1
The love of money is the root of all evil. But I say the lack of money is the root of all evil.
People may wonder why I say this so let me tell you;
At first reason is that if one has money and he or she values it more that God himself who is the provider of all things or even has no love for other people, he or she will be sinning because through love is when we pray cover a multitude of sins but that person has built his or her love on money and is worthy even of killing others so as to get money.
On the side of "the lack of money is the root of all evil." Its like this, when a person does not have money he or she may steal, kill, prostitute him or herself in order to get money and thus this concept is understood.
One of the reasons why the richer get richer and the poor get poorer, and the middle class struggles is that the subject of money istaught at home not at schools. Most of us learn about money from our parents due to the fact that most of them own various businesses and companies.
Money is not taught at schools. This explains how smart bankers, doctors and accountants who learned and attained excellent grades at school may struggle financially all their lives.
People have habits of saying,"I cannot afford it." While oter people forbade those words to be used and instead insisted the use of words
