Rhythm of Faith

I AM MYSTERIOUS! I am mysterious! I am a Terrorist! I eat flesh and drink blood! I am an Overcomer! Everything about the Kingdom of God is mysterious. Our Angels who are assigned to minister to us cannot be seen but they are there. We feed on the flesh and blood of our Master Jesus when we take communion. We as Christians are drinkers of the blood and eaters of the precious blood and body of Christ. We eat spiritual food that is greater than any spiritual food even that of witches and wizards. 1 Tim3:16: And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. Satan has told us lies to make us afraid. He tries to get us to believe he is a mystery that he knows everything about us. That is not true!.   We are the mysterious beings. The bible says in 1 Corinthians 2:16  "Who can know the LORD's thoughts? Who knows enoug...

Write Your Challenge a Sympathy Letter! Imagine if Nigeria were to go into battle with Russia or China. We do not need a soothsayer to tell us that  Nigeria will be defeated. Nigeria lacks the military might that Russia and China have. I do not believe that Nigeria can lay claim to even a single nuclear warhead. To fight Boko Haram ( a Nigerian rebel force), we need international assistance. This tells us that in a war situation, Nigeria will not stand the hope of a chance. Then imagine that as weak as Nigeria is, Japan, Germany or the United States comes out and declares that they are solidly behind Nigeria. All of a sudden,Nigeria's victory is almost assured because we are now being backed by Nation with greater military might. Our hope of victory changes, we even begin to brag because we have great confidence in the nation backing us. Russia then begins to fear that they might be defeated and might begin to regret. The whole situation changes. Then imagine further that Nig...

There were once two men, and each needed to build a house. The first man was foolish, and chose to build on sandy soil where it was easy to access and easy to dig the foundations. In a few short weeks he was almost finished. The second man was wise, and chose to build his house on a rocky hill, where it was very hard to access and to dig the foundation. He spent many months building his house. As time passed a huge storm broke upon the houses of these men. After much rain, a flood swept through the valley and the man's house that was built on the sand was swept away. But the second man who had built on the rocky hill was safe. No matter how hard it rained or how fierce the floods were his house remained solid and immovable. Let's ask ourselves the question. What's the foundation of our life? Are we like the foolish man, are our lives built on sand? The story above is from the Matthew 7:24-27 where the Bible says: Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mi...

As Christians we do not need to live in constant fear in assumption that something terrible may happen to us. For nothing can happen to us except our heavenly Father wills it and maybe,  just maybe God doesn't even permit those fears we have in our lifetime,  but we cannot know until the moment comes (or never comes),  So we must live in the confidence of God's protection everyday, every moment of our lives.  "Fear not" is written in the bible 365 times. That means at all times, everyday of our lives we are to live without fear.  Sometimes in our lives we face challenges that are so unpleasant that at that moment it is difficult to believe that God has permitted such trial to come our way. Let us refer to Job's story (Job 1vs. 12),  here God gives satan permission to try job.  Also in Luke 4: 14-31 when Jesus preached in Nazareth and was almost pushed over a cliff but passed right through the crowd because His time had not yet come, in other words God ...

"What does it mean to have the fear of God?"  After reading 2Corinthians 7:1;  "Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit,  perfecting holiness in the fear of God." I realized that holiness could be perfected in the "fear of God",  I wanted to know what it truly means to have "the fear of God".  Answer:  For the unbeliever, the fear of God is the fear of the judgment of God and eternal death, which is eternal separation from God (Luke 12:5; Hebrews 10:31).  For the believer, the fear of God is something much different. The believer's fear is reverence of God. Hebrews 12:28-29 is a good description of this: “Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, for our ’God is a consuming fire." This reverence and awe is exactly what the fear of God means for Christians. This is ...

Why Does God Bless Some People Even When They Have Nothing to do With Him? Have you ever asked yourself what success is in the eyes of God? We often say a person is successful if they have wealth or power–and that is understandable. But God doesn’t define success the way we do, and His definition is different from ours. Success in God’s eyes has to do with our character and with our faithfulness to what God wants us to do. Jesus wasn’t successful in a material sense, nor was He socially or politically powerful–not at all. And yet in God’s eyes He was absolutely successful, because “He was faithful to the one who appointed him” (Hebrews 3:2). God sent Him into the world to save us from our sins by His death on the cross, and He was successful because He did exactly what God sent Him to do. You see, a person may be very successful in the eyes of the world and yet be a failure in God’s eyes. This is why material success isn’t necessarily a sign of God’s blessing. Yes, sometimes it is; God...

The Four Laws Of God’s Blessings “I will make you into a great nation. I will bless you . . . and you will be a blessing to others” (Genesis 12:2 NLT). The Bible teaches that we should use our blessings to bless others – Our blessings should flow to others  The Bible teaches us that we are blessed not just so that we can feel good, not just so we can be happy and comfortable, but so that we will bless others. God told Abraham, “I will make you into a great nation. I will bless you and make you famous, and you will be a blessing to others” (Genesis 12:2 NLT). This is the first law of blessing: it must flow outwardly.   When we bless others, God takes care of our needs God promises that if we will concentrate on blessing others, he’ll take care of our needs. There’s almost nothing that God won’t do for the person who really wants to help other people. In fact, God guarantees this blessing. Jesus said, “I tell you the truth . . . no one who has left home or wife or brothers or pa...
