The moment you were born into this world, you had a purpose. Every man or woman has a purpose. Regardless of where you are or the condition of your life right now, you can know why you were born and live a very rich and fulfilling life. Your purpose is established by God and discovered by you.
Step into your purpose Part 2: How to Fulfil your calling
Everybody has a calling. In that calling lies their purpose in life. Your life purpose requires a moment of decision and decisive action. God needs everyone where they are today, to simply decide to take one step forward into where they should be to decide to step outside of the mundane day-to-day, the status quo, and be different because everyone’s calling is unique.
How to stop sinning and the guilt of sin-Repentance teaching
Ever wondered how you can stop sinning and break out of the cycles of addition, and bondage? Every time sin happens God expects you to Him. There are certain habits, actions, words or experiences that you will go through in life which are so sinful, and convicting you’d almost give up on everything. But God has a purpose for sin, its purpose is for you to know that His life (the Righteous Life) in Jesus Christ is always there for you. Everyone sins but not every person is a sinner. There’s a big difference, a believer in Christ is righteous ( right with God), a non-believer is not righteous (not right with God)A Christian can sin, but he or she still remains the righteousness of God through Jesus Christ. Whereas, non-believers can sin and remain sinners till they die. That is why Jesus must be a part of your life. Because as long as we are in this world, sin will take place but there is a way to deal with it, regardless of the magnitude. God wants you and I to always confess the sinful thought, and act that has taken place. And for those who aren’t following Jesus Christ, He wants you to surrender, repent from your sins and follow Jesus Christ. there are some things, in your life that only God can get rid of and until you let Him they won’t stop. Is it possible to even stop sinning? The bible says, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1:9 Never think that if you have sinned, you are in trouble or God does not want anything to do with you. Let me tell you, if your life is surrendered to the Lord Jesus Christ. Nothing will happen to your salvation because it was sealed by the body and blood of Jesus Christ, with the gift of the holy spirit. Any sin in your life today that you have tried to get rid of, pray about it without seizing, cast your cares upon the Lord, confess your sins, and God as faithful as He is, will wash it away. You will need to study the word of God and understand what God says about you. Repetitive sin has specific patterns it follows, master its patterns to deal with it. The Bible says, “But each one is tempted when by his evil desires he is lured away and enticed. Then after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and when sin is fully grown, it gives birth to death.…”James 1:14-15 Sin begins with a thought, allowed to go for a while, which eventually gives birth to the act. When you see that pattern begin to pray about it, declare your right path in Jesus Christ, and surrender it to God. Because God will make a way out from pornography, drug addiction, stealing, cussing, gossiping, jealousy, pride, and every other thing called sin. When you read 1 Corinthians 10:13, it says ” No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can endure it”.Temptation happens with every believer, but God always has a way of escaping from that Temptation ( that first thought of sin). Don’t fall for the devil’s schemes of casting fear upon your mind. If you are a believer, you are saved and sealed with the holy spirit of promise and no one can change that. Not even your sins or devil can.If you’re not a believer, you still have a chance with Jesus Christ. Give your precious life to him. I invite you to do this right now. Call unto Him, and invite him into your life.
Love is the greatest gift of all
Among all the gifts I have shared with you, none is greater than love. Love is the greatest gift of all. And every person has the ability or capability to love because you were made in the likeness and image of God, meaning you are like God in all your form. There are some characteristics that love embodies, that I want to share with you today, for I believe this will change your life. Qualities of Love (This is a love test!) “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, and it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts always hopes, and always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.” 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 How do you guard the greatest gift of all? That means, if you were impatient, even for a moment it was not love. If you were boastful or had a proud look over someone it was not love. If you were self-seeking it was not love, If you were easily angered even in a moment, that wasn’t love. If you were not truthful to the other, it wasn’t love. If it did not protect the other’s heart or did not trust always it wasn’t loving, if there was no more hope, love had checked out the window, and if it did not persevere it wasn’t love. If it failed it wasn’t love. Are you really loving? Or are you really in love? Are your decisions led by love? Is love a big part of your life, because we are told it is the greatest gift you can ever have. “Three things will last forever—faith, hope, and love—and the greatest of these is love.” 1 Corinthians 13:13″ Unfailing Love ‘Love never fails. As you do your part in life, always incorporate spiritual love. Love from the heart. Anything done with love will last forever because the spirit of God will carry it beyond your lifetime and into new generations after your own. The Bible says, ‘Love never fails’ as for all other things. Prophecies, healings, charitable causes, and every other thing you may think of doing. When these are empty of God’s kind of love. They are empty. When you die, you die with your achievements, because they were empty of real love. The impact of it will last only for your lifetime. God intended your life to be eternal. Including your works. Spiritual love makes them eternal. The Bible says God is Love. When you love with the God kind of love. God remains in what you do when you are long gone and his holy spirit carries it forth without end. Work that embodies your true spiritual love makes an amazing and transforming impact. Anything you do with God in it, through love from your heart is spiritual and eternal and unfailing. It always stands the test of time (it does not give up). However, it has to pass the love test I gave you above!! Actions of Love Just as you walk by faith today, walk also in love. God’s word is full of it. A life with God drenches with it. The world walks by sight, and so do they walk in mental love. Listen sex is not a sign or determinant of love, abuse of any kind is not a sign of love, anger is not a sign of love, impatient decisions with someone is not a sign of love, physical touch is not a sign of love, if it did not endure even a painful moment with someone, it’s not love because love endures all things, and that really means everything. I am just giving you random examples here. There’s a lot out there that is coined love that is not.To walk in that love or for love to have its greatest meaning in you, believe in Jesus Christ from the heart, and confess your belief in Him from the heart, daily. As you do, His love will endow itself in you and produce a sweet aroma that even your enemies will not be able to resist. We know how to love because God is love. without Jesus, you are doomed to fail at love 99%. The strength of love comes from God 24/7. Such is the love that comes from the heart. It not only says, but I also Love You. And I Love You too. It shows I Love You and I Love you too. Why? And How?? 1 John 3:18-20 “Beloved, let’s not merely say that we love each other; let us show the truth by our actions.” Choices of Love That means love chooses also. It chooses to be all the qualities above, chooses to act right, and it chooses not to fail. Don’t be quick to choose based on how you feel. I’m sure from today, you can love better than before. Guard your gifts!
The Importance of Recognizing and Nurturing Your Gifts from the Holy Spirit
There are three sets of gifts that you will get to enjoy in your lifetime. Every person has a set of motivational gifts, leadership gifts, and also gifts from the Holy Spirit. It is important that you recognize and nurture these gifts so that they can work together. The only way you can make sure you are guarding them is for you to know them and use them well. They all come from God but serve different purposes. Motivational Gifts “We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith; if it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach; if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead, do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully.” Romans 12:6-8 Somewhere inside you are one or more of the motivational kind of gifts. You’re encouraged to give, to love, to motivate, to teach, to lead. Motivational gifts tend to operate mostly in your emotions. For example, Did you know it’s innate for you to love and to feel loved? Love is a gift. So is encouragement. Truth is, we don’t all encourage others the same. Some do it better than others. So from this, can you identify yours? Leadership Gifts Some say, others are naturally born leaders, others say you are not born a leader but you can become one.I’d like to say somewhere inside you there is a leader and everyone can lead, they just have to identify their place. “But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ. Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men Ephesians 4: 7-9. Verses 10-11 goes on to say And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;” So there is either an Apostle (a self-starter, a builder) in you, A prophet ( destiny changer), an Evangelist (promoter or marketer), or a teacher (an equip-er) or a Pastor (a guide, a mentor) somewhere in you. You could be a banker, a cash teller, a government minister, a teacher, etc..but you’re performing the role of leadership. So which one are you? Everyone has a leader in them. Gifts from the Holy Spirit The Holy Spirit has gifts he confers to those who have come to know and walk with Jesus Christ. And unto them, He gives gifts that help Christians do their work well, in the Kingdom life. Without Christ, you may not know or even get anywhere near experiencing these. This set of gifts can be divided into 3 different sets, but I will keep it simple for you for now. The word of God says, “But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kind of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: But all these work that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will. 1 Corinthians 12:7-11 This set is special because it makes Christianity a lot more fun to live out. and this set is the kind of Gift you cannot control. They are God-controlled gifts, and God determines when and where they are used, especially if you make the environment or your day-to-day conducive for the holy spirit to move in your affairs. As you step out of your door, today know that you are a motivator, a leader, and may have the gifts of the holy spirit, if you don’t yet know Jesus Christ. You have someone to love or encourage, someone to lead and you have God’s work waiting for you, and in Christ, you can be used by God to do big things in the world. Use them, and protect them. Here is how you can guard your gifts to avoid abuse and manipulation.
How to guard your gifts and always protect your blessings
God does not build a beautiful airplane, make it take off fast on a runway and then eventually crash-land it. That is not God’s style of doing things. It’s either the devil would have attacked somewhere or the pilot will have misjudged somewhere and made a mistake. A lot of times, a gift or blessing you get from God, either physical or spiritual, is always good but the devil or human error or irresponsibility can affect that blessing. That is why it is important to guard your gifts and always protect your blessings. Very often you have to put effort to make things work out in your life. Be it in business, relationships, marriage, work, ministry, and even with family. The Bible says every good gift comes from God above. “Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.” James 1:17 Sometimes we blame the devil for things we are responsible for doing ourselves. Not every failure is from satan, some of it is you. For example, you cannot expect to earn without working with your hands, for God blesses the work of our hands. Deuteronomy 15:6-16. Also, you may not expect to do something great without the necessary training for it. think about it? that means when you work, expect to get paid, and when you get trained expect your skill to get you some kind of reward. The value of your skill ( your gift) is determined by how well you use it. But other times it really is the devil. You can receive a good gift from God, and the devil can try everything and anything to take it away, or frustrate it but these threats seldom have any power over one who believes in Jesus Christ. Because the gifts and calling of God are without repentance Romans 11:29. This means that God does not reverse a blessing. But be careful not to reverse it yourself thinking it’s just gonna fall from heaven. God forbid you to think like that. Protect your gift, your relationship, your marriage, your family, your business, your talent, your everything that God has blessed you with. Because believe me, when you put effort into it. You will soon reap the rewards. I just remembered a great verse in the bible. “Don’t be misled–you cannot mock the justice of God. You will always harvest what you plant.” Galatians 6:7They may try to take what you have produced due to your ability from God, but they can’t take what God has put inside you. It’s your responsibility to take of it. He has made you a steward. Protect your blessings. Do what it takes. God bless
Prayer that produces results
Therefore, confess your sins to one another [your false steps, your offenses], and pray for one another, that you may be healed and restored. The heartfelt and persistent prayer of a righteous man (believer) can accomplish much [when put into action and made effective by God—it is dynamic and can have tremendous power]. James 5:16 AMP What kind of prayer produces results? There is a special kind of prayer, that you can pray to get results. The above scripture reveals something remarkable. Your prayer doesn’t have to belong all the time, but earnest, heartfelt and persistent. A continuous prayer that does not end until a result appears. This means you got to pray until something happens. There is something powerful about earnest prayer. The Bible’s says in James 5:17: “Elijah was a human being, even as we are. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years” NIV It did not rain because Elijah prayed earnestly. Elijah prayed a heartfelt prayer. Sincere in His desire for what He wanted to see. And if you read much about Him, you will discover that He was a righteous man. A time. Then came after it had not rained for so long that, he had to pray again for it to rain. This time, He did not pray once. He prayed and prayed seven times until it rained again. He had to pray until the result came. That’s why persistence is required in your prayers. Earnest prayer produces results. Tremendous ones even. If a man could stop the rain, and cause God to bring it back, what more for you. You can determine anything you want for your life. You just have to see to it that you pray, and you pray until the results are showing in your favor. Jesus said we should not give up in our prayers but we should always pray. He even teaches us prayer secrets and strategies that give 100% assurance of answers. One of those secrets is shared in Luke 18:1 NIV where it reads, ” Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up” He was talking about an effective and fervent kind of prayer. When you are about to give up, you pray all the more. Another verse in the Bible says, “Pray without seizing”. “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18. ESV This means when you are about to give up or feel that it’s going for too long, or you can’t seem to get there. Pray ‘until it rains’ metaphorically speaking. That’s what Elijah did, that’s what Jesus did before being led to the cross. He had to endure the moment of death for the world, He prayed 3 different times for 3 hours, respectively. And He needed this kind of prayer to produce the result. (Salvation for the world, at the cross). This prayer will help you carry out God’s will for your life, change circumstances in your life to favor the will of God. And produce tremendous results. It is not nagging God Luke 18:1, neither does it annoy him when one prays the same prayer long enough to see a change. The devil can get you thinking this way, don’t believe it. But God wants you to pray until something happens. Be earnest (most sincere, unrelenting) in your prayers for that prolonged situation or desire of your heart, and soon enough you will reap the rewards. What have you been praying about? Is it taking long? Keep praying, and don’t stop until you produce the result. You are almost there. You can learn how to pray and get results everytime. God bless and prosper you.
Time-tested biblical principles of investing
Invest your money in foreign trade, and one of these days you will make a profit. Put your investments in several places—many places even—because you never know what kind of bad luck you are going to have in this world. Ecclesiastes 11:1-2 GNB The Lord Jesus Christ doesn’t want you to suffer in life. In fact, He wants you to prosper. He never wants you to lack money. God wants you to work and earn, but even more, He really wants you to be an investor. Someone who adds value where there was none, or rather who multiplies where there was value, to make even more value. Another version says, “Give your portion unto seven, or eight, for you know not what trouble shall come upon the earth”. Investing will avert lots of financial troubles. And it’s an act of giving. A lot of wealthy people today actually follow this one principle ‘Investing’. God says you need to invest in foreign trade. Even more, He says not only to invest in foreign trade but to have mastery of how to put your money in several places, that it may multiply. Jesus told a parable with this principle in it- the parable of the talents, ” do read it when you get time”. One thing you will discover is that God endorses business big time. Look at the opening verse again. Notice the keywords- Investing, foreign trade, several places, and profit. This is from God! Jesus once told a story, where a nobleman gave his money to his ten servants and went away to search out a kingdom. But when he came back he had to check who had added to it. “Do business with this until I come back”. Luke 19:11. He told them.When he returned he was after one result. To find out who have done trade and multiplied his money. The Bible says; “And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading.” Luke 19:15 KJV Don’t wait on money or seat on it, it doesn’t like that. It will slip out of your hands unto those who do trade, invest and make profits. This is exactly how ‘money’ works or rather flows. Walk in the footsteps of the great. Invest, and make a profit. Divide your portion among seven or eight, and when trouble falls on the earth, you will be safe, because trouble will come. In finance, they call this diversifying your portfolio. My mother always used to say, “don’t put your golden eggs in one basket”. Although she wasn’t referring to money back then, now I understand why she said so. It’s very very risky to have your most priced treasure invested in one thing. Especially money. And yes a job is one risky way of counting on the money. Have the job but invest, or go for the long haul; do business and invest. Do yourself a big favor and start praying, and searching for investments, because God wants you to be great, to profit, and to be financially safe. He wants you to be generous with the money He has blessed you with, and when it multiplies to be even more generous, and bless others by adding value where there was none. I am sure when you start praying and seeking the Lord for answers, he will show you where you can invest your money. In the NIV Bible, the title says INVEST IN MANY VENTURES: “Ship your grain across the sea; after many days you may receive a return. Invest in seven ventures, yes, in eight; you do not know what disaster may come upon the land.” Did you know this? I’m glad you do now! Four key things to remember-Invest (the act of giving or adding value)-Foreign trade (global business)-Several places (different ventures)-Profit (adding value or making a return). This is how great economies and nations are built. God bless and prosper you.
Master how to make your dreams come true
There are times when you have to understand the process of things when working to make your dreams come true. You do not just wake up one day living your dream life, as if it were some fairytale. I remember when I wrote my first book. It wasn’t like the experience, of writing the second one. I knew I had a gift from God, to write and publish the Gospel. I knew the word of God enough to share and teach somebody about Christ. However there was a certain knowledge I did not have at the time. I didn’t know how to publish books. So I learned that God wants us to learn the way it works (the process) even if He has given us a vision to do something. So I learnt how to self publish books. The Bible in Proverbs 3:19-20 GNB says; “The Lord created the earth by his wisdom; by his knowledge, he set the sky in place.” Wisdom and knowledge work hand in hand. Wisdom gives you the idea, vision, destination, and that which you want to make. But knowledge helps you put it all in place. The word of God is replete with so many examples about, getting understanding. Wisdom without understanding is empty, but wisdom gotten with understanding bears fruit. A Greek word is given for such knowledge. And it’s called epignosis. Today I can say I have mastered how to make my dreams come true and have the epignosis of how to write inspiring content, put together and publish it into books. So how did it happen? It all comes from the way God did it when He made the earth. In the Bible it says, the Lord created the earth with wisdom; by his knowledge, He set the sky in place. And in another place the Bible says, “Getting wisdom is the most important thing you can do. Whatever else you get, get insight.” Proverbs 4:7 GNB insight can be translated (understanding). There is an insight here. What caused the Lord to create the earth was wisdom, the idea was in mind, and He created it. But what caused Him to set up the sky (heavens) was the knowledge, that He put to work after the wisdom He had. And that’s exactly what happened when I wrote my first and second book. I just know that I know the process. Now it’s much easier. What does it take to make your dreams come true? So this is how you make those dreams you have to come true. By wisdom, you can create a marriage, business, ministry, invention, product anything really. And by knowledge (epignosis: knowledge of a particular point; directed towards a particular object) you can set up its skies (its limits). In other words, you can set up the whole thing in full. So wisdom is important, and make sure you are getting the knowledge of what you want to create. Otherwise, it will remain just a dream. There is an understanding that you need to make your dreams come true. And God’s word can guide you to that understanding. After all, He is the source of all wisdom. So Get wisdom but also get understanding ( epignosis: knowledge, to know that you know, that you know, how to do it). Don’t buy a gun and not know how to shoot with it, lest you get shot before you shoot yours. Neither should you buy a car when you don’t know how to drive one. Otherwise, you will just park it. Do you get it? You have to know how to do it for that dream to come true. Learn the process, get knowledge and make your dream come to life. The right process will make it a success. May this be a turning point to your dreams and plans for your life. Next, I will show you the other insight in this process. There is an order you must follow. “Through wisdom is a house built; and by understanding it is established: And by knowledge shall the chambers be filled with all precious and pleasant riches.â€Proverbs 24:3. Wisdom, understanding and knowledge are essential for the success of any given venture. Wisdom will provide the building blocks, understanding will certify it and knowledge will cause it to be fruitful. This is the specific order to make your dreams a reality. It’s literally a 1,2,3 process all working together to produce one thing, amd that isyour dream. One may ask, “but How does wisdom come about, and how do I get understanding and knowledge?†Rather, how does one know they are operating from wisdom, understanding, and knowledge of Something. It’s very simple. Let’s look at the Lord Jesus Christ. The Bible says, “The beginning of wisdom is to fear the LORD, and acknowledging the Holy One is understanding.†Proverbs 9:10. Wisdom begins when there is a deep reverence and respect for the Lord Jesus Christ. Without this holy fear, there will be no wisdom, and that’s not all. And if you are unsure about how to get wisdom, the bible clearly tells us to ask from God. What about understanding? The Bible also says, “acknowledging the Holy One is understandingâ€. When you truly acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, that’s understanding. But it doesn’t stop here either. When you have wisdom and acknowledge who Jesus Christ is, then you have knowledge. You cannot acknowledge what you don’t know. It’s like saying this burger is nice without tasting it or taking a bite. That’s not understanding neither is that wisdom. That becomes an assumption or a guess. But then when you fear God, and acknowledge Him, through Jesus Christ, it is because you know Him. It can only mean absolute knowledge or unabated knowing. This is primary knowledge that sets the foundation for all kinds of knowledge that you will have of something. The Bible talking about Christ says, “He is before all things, and in him, all things hold together.â€
You’ve been given absolute power to choose the life you want
Can you really choose the life you want? According to the Word of God, you sure can! Long before Jesus came God gave man the opportunity to choose life or death, between a good life and a bad one. A life of blessings against a life that is not of blessings. The first covenant God made after His people had left the land of Egypt, was at Mount Sinai (commonly known by the 10 commandments). The second time, God made a covenant with the children of Israel through His servant at the time Moses when they were approaching the promised land (land of prosperity and good life). In this Second Covenant, He wanted His people to prosper and it was an addition to the first covenant. The Bible says; “These are the terms of the covenant the Lord commanded Moses to make with the Israelites while they were in the land of Moab, in addition to the covenant he had made with them at Mount Sinai.” Deuteronomy 29:1-2. Most people don’t know that God wants them to prosper His way. This was established thousands of years, long before Jesus set foot on earth. How to choose the life you want The Bible says; “Now listen! Today I am giving you a choice between life and death, between prosperity and disaster. For I command you this day to love the Lord your God and to keep his commands, decrees, and regulations by walking in His ways. If you do this, you will live and multiply, and the Lord your God will bless you and the land (promised land) you are about to enter and occupy.” Deuteronomy 30:15-16 You are the master of your own destiny. Given this willpower means that the life you are living today is determined by the choice you have made, and the ones you will make henceforth. You have to understand that not every failure comes from the devil, some of it is you. He says He has given you a choice between life and death. Blessing and disaster. He so wishes that we choose life. To choose the blessing. He has given you that power. He so wishes that you choose life because He wants you to succeed beyond your greatest dreams. That means your failures are not on God’s calendar for your life. Though they may happen, they are not his ultimate plan for you. So they can not remain permanent. His permanent solution for your life is a prosperous and blessed life. Can you imagine that God wants you to be rich in all areas of your life? As if His wishes were not enough, heaven delights in your prosperous life. How do you make this choice? The word of God says; “Today I have given you the choice between life and death, between blessings and curses. Now I call on heaven and earth to witness the choice you make. Oh, that you would choose life, so that you and your descendants (future generations) might live! You can make this choice by loving the Lord your God, obeying Him and committing yourself firmly to Him. This is the key to your life. And if you love and obey the Lord , you will live long in the land the Lord swore to give your ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.â€Deuteronomy 30:19-20 The word of God says that the covenant of blessing is the key to your life. If you choose life your blessings are guaranteed. If you choose otherwise, you will be in a disaster. It’s black and white.This covenant the Lord did not only make with the people back then but also for the future generations. He had you and me in Mind. We are that FUTURE GENERATION. The Bibles says; “But you are not the only ones (meaning the children of Israel) with whom I am making this covenant with its curses. I am making this covenant both with you who stand here today in the presence of the Lord our God, and also with the future generations who are not standing here today. Deuteronomy 29:14â€-‬15 NLT God made this Covenant with His people (anybody who worships Him only) long before Jesus Came. So if this was the case, your prosperity was guaranteed thousands of years ago. Why should you live in death, lack and problems? Why should you live accursed? It’s not necessary because you can choose life. Now just imagine what life is like after Jesus came, died for the whole world and was resurrected. Life is even more glorious. Jesus, Himself said”The thief cometh to steal, kill and destroy but I come that they might have life and have it more abundantly.” John 10:10 You have the power to choose the life you want, daily. Whether to live in lack, poverty, and sickness or in riches, prosperity, and health. There is much for you to enjoy in Christ, and that includes a prosperous life. “Listen! I, the Lord, am giving you a choice between the way that leads to life and the way that leads to death.†Jeremiah 21:8. Your destiny lies within the choices you make every day. What you decided yesterday has decided your today, and what you decide today will decide your tomorrow. God is giving you a choice every day that you live to choose the way that leads to life against the way that leads to death. And that choice is yours.That way is found in Jesus Christ and Jesus Christ only. Every day is a choice.When Jesus came, He had something profound to say about the life He came to give each and every human being on earth.“The thief (the devil), comes not but to steal kill and destroy, I am come that they might have life and have it more abundantly†John 10:10 In the opening verse, Jeremiah was telling the people of Jerusalem what the spirit of the Lord was saying about their destiny, in that they were given a choice
