BE DEEPLY ROOTED IN YOUR FAITH

If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister ( Colossians 1:23). As a Christian, you must be deeply rooted in God’s Word. That’s how to build prevailing faith— the faith that can face any challenge and win. The Bible typifies Abraham as one whose faith was deeply rooted in the Word: “And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah’s womb: He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God” (Romans 4:19-20). When your faith is deeply rooted in the Word of God it will be impossible for you to vacillate! You won’t stagger at the promise of God through unbelief. Rather, like Abraham, your faith will be strong, and will always prevail—your confidence in God and in His...

KNOW THE WORD FOR YOURSELF

The life of a Christian isn’t ordinary; it’s supernatural. This is why we’ve been instructed through God’s Word, to live with the consciousness of who we are in Christ. You have to leave the realm of the ordinary and get into the realm of the supernatural, where you take control of the affairs of your life. We are citizens of Zion, the heavenly Jerusalem; this is the city of the living God. As a citizen of this city you have undeniable rights: the right to live, to choose and to receive God’s blessings in Christ. It is also important to know that we have an adversary – the devil, whose mandate is to stop you from enjoying and exercising your rights in Christ Jesus. If you don’t know your rights in Christ, you’ll be at his mercy and that’s a dangerous way for you to live as a Christian . Start today by digging into God’s Word and searching the Scriptures for yourself. Discover your rights and privileges in Christ: what God has said you can do and have, and then begin to appropriat...

BE VORACIOUS FOR THE WORD - PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME.

And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified (Acts 20:32).  The Word of God gives you much more than a moral code of conduct; it builds, lifts, transforms you and catapults you to your inheritance and destiny in Christ. Proverbs 11:9 tells us that through knowledge—revelation knowledge of God’s Word—shall the just be delivered into their inheritance. Thus, you have to know the Word, store it in you, and consciously put it to work in your life. That’s your guarantee of a life of ever-increasing glory. The Bible says, “...All things are yours” (1 Corinthians 3:21); that means there’s nothing you require today that hasn’t already been made available to you by God through the Word. This is one reason you must meditate on the Word. Become voracious in your passion, hunger, and appetite for the Word. There’s no way of appropriating the blessings of God to yo...
