Masquerade Is Not Transform By Segun Tewogbola The inadequate knowledge of Kingdom matters have made us make the Devil what he is not.  Some Christians are fond of saying, ‘Esu ni agbara, ko ni igbala’ – (the devil has power but has no salvation). The truth of this was made known when Jesus said, “ALL POWER HAVE BEEN GIVEN UNTO ME” – means nothing left! In the same light and manner, many still believe, the devil can transform himself to another being entirely. This is a big lie! “And it is no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel…

WHAT IS THE NAME OF YOUR GOD? (Exodus 3:13 – 17): By Ben Omoregie Names are very important. Some people in the church may not know the name of the God they assemble to worship. It is important to know the name of your God. People may ask you the name of your God, as they did to Jonah the Prophet, (Jonah 1:4-10). God met Moses by the side of the desert by the burning bush that was not consumed. God called him and Moses answered. God told Moses that He was sending him to bring the children of Israel…

Grace is The Opposite of Karma By Babatunde Olugboji This is a pertinent question as we continue our series on grace. Grace is most needed and best understood in the midst of sin, suffering, and brokenness. We live in a world of earning, deserving, and merit, and these result in judgment. That is why everyone wants and needs grace. Judgment kills. Only grace makes us alive. A shorthand for grace is “mercy, not merit.” Grace is the opposite of karma. In Hinduism and Buddhism, karma means your reward will be based on your action. If you are good, you will…

Abraham, David, Job, and Our Lord Jesus: Examples of Saints’ Divine Responsibility By Femi Adebayo There are ancient landmarks that  Fathers of Faith have set! Don’t remove them (Proverbs 22:28). Rather, follow such examples. Jeremiah declared, “Thus saith the Lord, stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls…Unfortunately, …they said, we will not walk therein.” Jeremiah 6:16. Abraham rescues his nephew Lot (who we can say got what he deserved ) – Genesis 13-14 That was a spiritual old…

An Insight into Grace By Babatunde Olugboji  Grace! Someone once described the doctrine of the grace of God as “The very centre and core of the whole Bible.” It is a word that is thrown around a lot, especially in church and among believers. Sometimes we even use it to excuse our bad behaviour, as if God condones bad behaviour.  But what does it mean? We will seek to answer this question in the next couple of weeks, as we dissect the concept of God’s grace. Grace has been variously defined as free sovereign favour to the ill-deserving; love that…

What’s My Purpose? By Babatunde Olugboji What exactly is my purpose? You may have asked yourself this question more than once. A preacher provides a good clue: the place where God wants you to be, as opposed to where you are at the moment. It’s often a spiritual location but could also be a physical one. Prophet Elijah in 1 Kings 17 went through several situations and locations, including the Brook of Cherith, one of the many ravines that emptied its waters into the Jordan from the mountains to the east. God commanded Elijah to depart from Samaria, to turn…
