There’s more for you

But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day (Proverbs 4:18).
   Christianity is a beautiful life of ever-increasing glory. Everything just keeps getting better and better. Where you start and how you start, really don’t matter; but as you walk with the Lord and get more acquainted with Him through fellowship, you’re transformed from glory to glory. There’s always something better for you; a greater and higher level of success to aspire to. Therefore, refuse the status quo and press on in victory.
   It doesn’t matter how glorious your journey of faith has been; there’s always something better for you in Christ. All you need do is open the eyes of your spirit to see the greater glory that lies ahead. This is where fellowship with the word and the Holy Spirit in indispensable. The Bible says in 1 Corinthians 2:12, “ Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely give unto us of God.” The more you spend time with the Lord through His word, and fellowship with His Spirit, the more you discover new realities about your inheritance in Christ.
 The reason many Christians suffer and struggle is that they’re unaware God has something better for them. For example, Jesus said to the Samaritan woman, in John 4:10: “…if thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.” Prior to that time, everything the woman had, including the water she came to fetch at the well, provided only temporary satisfaction. She didn’t know something better existed until she met Jesus and He introduced her to the living water of life.
  When you come to Christ, he shows you and gives you something better than what you already had. Today, it doesn’t matter where you are financially, academically or spiritually, there’s more for you in Christ.

How to follow Jesus

                  Following Jesus is not going to church always, it is not praying always, it is not reading the bible always etc. although, all these activities are good but they do not make one a follower of Christ Jesus. Matthew 19:16-21, the rich young ruler was perfect in all of them yet something was missing which was the most important one. In the book of John 3:1 Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jew, was disqualified in spite of his knowledge of the law.              What is following Jesus? So, what is following Jesus? Following Jesus Christ is living by the word of God. Luke 4:4 and Jesus answered him saying man shall not live by bread alone, by every word of God. This is living your life according to the direction of the Word of God. It is abiding in the word of God or Jesus. John 15:4-5.     Steps to follow  ·          You must believe in Jesus Christ, John 3:16   ·          You must be born again John 3:3 ·          You must have faith in God. Heb 11:1-6 ·

Salvation is for the Living

     Some people have asked if Christians could intercede on behalf of a person who died without receiving Christ, so such a person could go to heaven instead of hell. The answer is No. “For the grave cannot praise thee, death cannot celebrate thee: they that go down into the pit cannot hope for thy truth. The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I do this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth” Isaiah 38:18-19. Anyone who didn’t receive Christ while on earth stands condemned. In John 3:18, Jesus said, “… but he that believeth not is condemned already….”   So, the one who dies without knowing Christ, died in condemnation, and it would be of no use praying for such a one to go to heaven because the choice of whether to make heaven or not is personal one.   It’s important to realize that the salvation message is for the living and not the dead. You can only receive Christ as Lord and Saviour in response to the Gospel while you’re still in the earth. Jesus

Keys to Effectual Prayers

  And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him. Lord, teach us to pray… (Lake 11:1)   When you study the lives of the early prophets and the apostles, even the Lord Jesus Christ, you’d find they were very effective in their prayer lives. In our opening verse, disciples asked Him to teach them how to pray because they observed His prayers' effectiveness. So, it’s not just enough to pray; it’s the effectual, fervent prayer of the righteous man that produces results.   There’re scriptural rules and guidelines for effectual prayers. There are some things you have to pray about continually, you intercede continually; and there’re things that you pray for only once because if you keep praying about them, you’re getting into unbelief, rather than applying faith.    Meanwhile, there’re things you’re not even supposed to pray for, because no matter how long you pray about them, God is not going to respond becaus
