THE FOUNDATION OF GIVING 1A

God specializes in dismantling strongholds. The present location of Jerusalem was a stronghold of the Jebusites. God sent his son, David, to take possession of that place and it became his headquarters. That is why when the Devil begins to mess up with you, ensure that you don’t chicken out. All you need do is to stretch, look up and receive grace. True grace is an empowerment to live above the obstacles, all the schemes and wiles of the forces that are unleashed against the purpose of God in your life. That is the true meaning of grace. The one who comes from above is above only.

There are some basic things that you must know otherwise your Christianity will be wishy-washy and you will just be floating. When people are in the dark, they move from anther to post looking for what was never lost. The devil specializes in doing this to people, he blindfolds and he sets people against those whom God has ordained to help them. I have seen this severally in ministry.

If only people knew how dependent their lives, their success, their well being is in their relationship with God, they will learn to put God first in everything they do. The greatest success  factor is the God factor. Jesus understood this. I wonder why Christians struggle with it. I wonder why some pastors, bishops and preachers of the gospel struggle with this basic truth. Jesus never had time for frivolities. He was such a focused person.

“Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.”

John 4:34, KJV

Jesus never had time for nonsense. True God chasers don’t bow to nonsense. They don’t submit to rubbish. Until we start producing true God chasers, the world will continue to ask the question – where are the sons of God? I pray that anytime there is need for a child of God to manifest and you are there, you will not disappoint in Jesus name.

One of the ways not to disappoint is to really know God. The people that do know their God shall be strong and they shall do exploits (Dan. 11:32). Those who don’t know their God will be weak and will be exploited. It is already happening. People are celebrating superfluity of naughtiness, empty messages that cannot lift anyone beyond the atmospheric heaven; that is what people are celebrating all over the world.

The bride’s message is very rare; it is a wonderful privilege to hear it. It is not a common message because it does not appeal to the unregenerated mind. It is not a message of motivation. It is a message that kills the old man in you, the old man which so many people want to spare. That old man cannot be a new man. These things are no longer preached because preachers don’t want to hurt your sensibilities. You don’t solve a problem by avoiding it. The only way I know to solve a problem is by confronting it. Knowledge is so important. This is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent (John 17:3).
