Preachers


Preachers 


Preachers are not super humans. Preachers are prone to every sinful bait that happens to all men. Preachers preach so that their preaching can preach to them also. They encourage so that they can be encouraged as well. They motivate to be motivated also. So Paul would say, Instead, I discipline my body and bring it under strict control, so that after preaching to others, I myself will not be disqualified. (1 Cor 9:27). So Preachers do not preach just because they know more than the listeners, neither because they are more qualified than the listeners nor more perfect than the listeners.

However, Preachers must know and do better. As a Preacher, you must practice what you preach and live your talks. You don't just preach for others and relax somewhere. Whatever sermon you preach must be a command you must obey as well. You must discipline yourself after you have preached a subject because there is a high possibility of falling to that sermon and the devil can silence you in that area forever. Practice what you preach. To the gospel musicians, do not just sing the song for others alone, sing it for yourself too. Scripture says, even if you think you can stand up to temptation, be careful not to fall. (CEV 1 corinthians 10:12).

Regardless, ministers are also human beings subject to passion and errs, when they fall let's pray for them to come back excellently. Satan will first attack your head (Ministers), once your leaders are captured, you are automatically captured. The Philistines took to their heels when their leader Goliath was defeated. Pray for your Pastors, Ministers, other church leaders etc., for in their stand is your stand. Thank you.

Leadership is for all

Leadership is for everyone Never underestimate yourself, when it comes to leadership. Whether young or old, the spirit of leadership lives in you. It's your ability to step into it courageously. You can be young but fully prepared for leadership. The brothers of David, were older than him but the inbuilt leadership capability in David triggered him to fight the philistine, Goliath. Change your mindset about leadership, the young can lead a group of elderly people. In the book of  Job, we were also told that wisdom lives not only in the aged, the young too. The secret is this, as coined by the late Dr Myles Munroe, when a lion leads a heard of sheep it will definitely overcome a heard of lion being led by a sheep. You can be a young lion leading a sheep of the aged. So step into your leadership capabilities now, because within every follower lies a crying spirit of leadership. God bless you.

Where's God?

Where's God? In our days at the primary school, we were told that God is omnipresent, which meant that He's present everywhere. So in the storm, flood, drought, turbulence, attack, ups and downs etc., God has never left us. He's always there on time. But sometimes it seems God isn't present during the storms. It seems He's no where to be found  in the storm. Yeah, we don't find Him there. This is it: During the storm, the atmosphere becomes blurred and you hardly see your way out, so though God will be right there but the atmosphere wouldn't let you see. So in that, He says, walk by FAITH not by SIGHT. This is why in the book of Romans, we are told that the just shall live by FAITH. the Christan walk has always been a FAITH WALK. It takes faith to acknowledge the presence of God during the storms, the challenges, the seasonal fluctuations in business. If you live in these period by what you only see, you will falter. He has said it in His word, that He w...

PRAYING FOR WISDOM FROM ABOVE

PRAYING FOR WISDOM FROM ABOVE Join Paul and Daniel in marveling at God’s wisdom : “Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and how inscrutable His ways!” (Romans 11:33) “ Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, to whom belong wisdom and might. He changes times and seasons; He removes kings and sets up kings; He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding; He reveals deep and hidden things; He knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with Him” (Daniel 2:20-22).    prayer ….Thank God for His gracious promise to give wisdom generously to those who lack it. Claim that promise for yourself by asking Him for it in faith  (James 1:5). Acknowledge to God that fools always think their way is right, but a wise person listens to advice (Proverbs 12:15). Ask the Lord to help you to be humble and teachable, willing to ask for and receive counsel from others. Confess ...
