THE PLEASURE OF SIN DOESN’T EASE THE GUILT
Enjoy the wealth and forget how it came his friend advised him; they’ve just successfully defrauded one man of his money and right now, they are in cloud nine.
When James started feeling guilty, his friend told him to enjoy the money and party that the guilt would disappear in the face of beers and parties and girls and clean-cars etc. well these seems to work on his guilt for a while but after he became sober and the girls were gone, the guilt resurfaced. What if the man that was defrauded had killed himself for his loses? What if he got defrauded too seeing that whatsoever a man sows he must reap etc. the more thoughts like these continued to haunt him the more he drank more wine, invited more girls, went to clubs  etc. and yet the guilt wouldn’t go away.
I looked at him and told him, there was a man in the bible who thought women would curb the guilt and got more than a thousand of them yet they didn’t, he thought having the best of stuffs will help him with the guilt yet they didn’t and all that he did by buying whatsoever his body desired didn’t help him either.
And whatsoever mine eyes desired I kept not from them, I withheld not my heart from any joy; for my heart rejoiced in all my labour: and this was my portion of all my labour. Then I looked on all the works that my hands had wrought, and on the labour that I had laboured to do: and, behold, all was vanity and vexation of spirit, and there was no profit under the sun.  Eccles. 2:10-11
Only Christ can take your guilt I told him every other thing would be vain.
When you sleep with men for money and your heart is filled with guilt, you might be deceived that buying the best of stuffs would help you ease such guilt but nope, it won’t. Only Christ can take away our guilt because He died for our sins.
It’s not late for you to repent, it is not too late to escape the bondage of sin and be free indeed.
Jesus shall save His people from their sins. No matter the sins, Christ will save you if you’ll call on Him; He will give you righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
God bless you

EVIL

By -
WHEN GOD ALLOWS EVIL ON THE RIGHTEOUS When Christ the righteous was allowed to be crucified in the midst of the guilty, He resurrected in Glory and the enemy was defeated and put to shame. God doesn’t allow evil come on the righteous except He has planned to use the devices of the evil against the righteous to put the evil planner to shame. When the wicked is prospering in his evil against the righteous, it’s because God wants to by the evil of the evil doer puts him to shame. If you have questions over the prosperity of wickedness over your life though you believe in God, think on why God allowed the devil succeeded in killing Christ and what happened afterwards, Christ resurrected in greater glory and the devil was forever defeated before Christ. As it was for Christ so it would be for you, that enemy that is prospering over your life now though you believe in God, will be brought low via his wickedness and you’ll resurrect to greater glory and restoration Pr 11:5 ¶ The

THE STRUGGLE FOR WHOM TO BELIEVE

By -
After a program back in Nigeria early last year, a woman met me by the car and wants me pray for her conception, since she had a first son, having another has been difficult. As I was about to pray for her, I told her she is now pregnant by the word of God (Ex 23:26). After few days, she called to say, she went for medical test and the report isn’t so, and I replied, God is far above medical science, she said ‘amen’. She went for test again after few more days and the result was negative and she called and told me its negative, I laughed and said, Doc’s of these days are so blind, they see things late. She was surprised at my reply. She went for the third test after few more days, and result was still negative but this time, she told herself, I am pregnant because God has said so and by that she rejected the doctor’s report of negativity and thus the fourth test announced itself; an experienced mother asked her, are you pregnant? Instead of saying no according to the doc,

ORDAINED TO BE FRUITFUL

By -
Someone said because of the suffering he was passing through that God has ordained it therefore he is going to accept the financial barrenness as part of God’s plan for him. (I will therefore present my discussion with him like a drama) Me: (I looked at him and asked him) how do you know this barrenness is God’s plan for you? He:   If it’s not God’s plan, why hasn’t God done anything about my situation? Me: How does God change or create a situation isn’t it by His word as in creation? He: Yes Me: Has He spoken that you’ll be barren in life through His word to you? He: Not actually, but that’s what am experiencing, that’s how I feel right now Me: If your experience and feeling isn’t in accordance to God’s word, then your feeling and experience is devilish Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. John 15:8 God is so happy when you are fruitful in life; when you give birth to kids, it excites God, when you get results in
