A paralyzed man was brought to Jesus and He healed the man by saying, “your sins are forgiven.”
Sometimes, the prayer we need to pray to get healed is for God to forgive us. Our miracles come when we acknowledge God as a holy God, and that we are most evil (unclean) of all.
Confess your known and unknown sins to God (so He can forgive you) and ask Him for healing to take place. Your confession (of sins) may unlock the healing and miracle you have been waiting for.
Be well in Jesus name.
Path to greatness differs for each of us. The distance you cover in life is different from other people. Some can run 100 meters dash. Some even run shorter distance. And some run long distance like 5,000 meters, and some run even longer like 10,000 meters and marathon. All reaches their destiny.
So, how wrong it is to be looking at your neighbor’s successes comparing it to your own. Though we know this, yet we do the same thing over and again.
The bible says to compare yourself with others and among peers is foolishness. Do not be a fool.
Stop comparing your neighbor`s success to yours, especially if it causes you to worry about your present position in life.
You can achieve success if you run carefully and diligently and stay focus on your path to success.
Run this race. Do not look back. By faith you will win. Through grace, you will be victorious.
The past is gone. The new is here. 2017 is gone. here comes 2018.
Opportunities to live anew are here.
Start the new year well and run this race to the finish line. Finish well.
Happy new year 2018!
Wishing you all good tidings in this season.
Again and again, we tend to think help can come from abroad. The source from abroad equally hopes for help to come from somewhere. So, everyone is in the same cycle. This often leads to disappointment.
The source of help has never been from abroad but from above.
God lives above and sees everything below. He knows where your blessings are located.
Seek Him who lives above to supply your need and not someone who lives abroad to send your blessings.
Remember, Jesus came from above as God’s gift to mankind. Your Blessing is from God; not from any man.
Blessings do not go into vacuum. It occupies a place to display the beauty of the blessing. When there is a need, God sends His blessing to the need. He does not bless emptiness.
The blessings of God need contact to manifest. Your hands must be occupied with a work for Him to bless. No work; no blessing. He sends His blessings to what your hands are busy doing–the work.
So, fill your hands with at least one work/job or any action (at all), He sends His blessings there–on your handiwork.
Your hands; His blessings.
Forgiveness when we deserve none. Love when we do not merit it. Endless Help on daily basis. Yet, this God lavishes us continuously with benefits unmerited. Yes, this is called grace. We all misbehaved, and God has generals who do His works and He also has kids who not just constantly messed up but do it annoyingly. Yet, He is not mad at them. Love that is better than that of a parental love is God’s love.
What a sweet God and what a loving Father we have. What a God! This is truly God; this is Grace. Grace is love unending.

You do not discuss your sin with God.You do not negotiate your sin Him. Also, do not try to explain your sin to Him. You are to do only one thing–to repent of your sin before Him.
In the Bible, David tried to negotiate his sin with Bathsheba but that did not work.
When you go to God because of any sin, just do one thing–repent.
Today, it is so hard to live a perfect life. “Perfect” here refers to a lifestyle acceptable to everyone. This is really hard.
So, how can we determine if a thing is right or wrong?
Test it against a predetermined standard. Standard are usually proven and established. Standard can verify a statement whether it is right or wrong. The Bible is a standard which has been tested and proven over the years to be infallible.
Test every statement against a former experience. It is said, “Experience is a good teacher.” If you have fallen for a trick or a lie before, you will be smart enough not to fall for it again.
Test lifestyle against norms and acceptable lifestyle. Although it is difficult to live a perfect life, nevertheless, it is abominable and unworthy to follow someone who has a poor lifestyle or bad records and shows no consistency.
Test words against the truth. You can and will know the truth. When you do, you are free from lies and deceits. To know the truth, train your heart to love God.
Your leader may fall too but the true test of a good leader is recognizing his error and making necessary changes.
There are many false teachings today because for every good thing there is a bad replica. For every good human cells, there is a tendency for a cancerous cells. What do you do? Try and kill the cancer cells.
Watch yourself and watch your life. Again, you can avoid making mistakes by testing everything. By doing this, you will be confident in what you believe.
