ONLY GOD’S WORD CAN TRANSFORM A PERSON

  Proverbs 4:20-22 (AMPC) “ My son, attend to my words; consent and submit to my sayings.   21 Let them not depart from your sight; keep them in the center of your heart.   22 For they are life to those who find them, healing, and health to all their flesh.”   Dear people of God, the beauty of God’s Word is amazing. Every born-again Christian heard God’s Word preached, became convicted, repented of sin, and submitted to the Lordship of Jesus Christ as Saviour and Messiah.   God tells every one of His children in today’s lead Holy Bible text above to consent and submit to His Word, to never let His Word depart from their sight, to keep His Word in the center of their heart.   God goes ahead to state why His children should take to this simple instruction, which is that His Word is life to those who find them, healing and health to all their flesh.   This is a simple but profound statement.   There is nobody who pays attention to...

SADISTS AND SADISM

  Proverbs 6:16-19 (AMPC) “ These six things the Lord hates, indeed, seven are an abomination to Him:   17 A proud look [the spirit that makes one overestimate himself and underestimate others], a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, [Ps. 120:2, 3.]   18 A heart that manufactures wicked thoughts and plans, feet that are swift in running to evil,   19 A false witness who breathes out lies [even under oath], and he who sows discord among his brethren.”     Dear people of God, the online dictionary defines sadism as “ the tendency to derive pleasure, especially sexual gratification, from inflicting pain, suffering, or humiliation on others.”   A sadist is also defined as a person who takes pleasure in inflicting pain, punishment, or humiliation on others.   According to medicinenet.com some of the typical characteristics that a person with a sadistic personality has are:   ·        T...

DO YOU JOIN OTHERS TO MOCK YOUR CREATOR?

Psalm 1:1 (AMPC) “ BLESSED (HAPPY, fortunate, prosperous, and enviable) is the man who walks and lives not in the counsel of the ungodly [following their advice, their plans and purposes], nor stands [submissive and inactive] in the path where sinners walk, nor sits down [to relax and rest] where the scornful [and the mockers] gather.”   Dear people of God, many ignorant people commit sin by careless words they speak.   Some equally ignorant Christians join ignorant people to commit sin by either being silent to sinful comments or joining to laugh at sinful comments mocking their Creator Jesus Christ.   Sometime in February 2022, there was a conversation about the level of rot and moral decadence amongst the security agencies in Nigeria following a revelation of high- level corruption against a once celebrated police officer.   One ignorant non-Christian now stated that he had given up on Nigeria and that even if an angel came to rule this nation, he would be co...

THE GREATEST BEING NEVER GIVES APPOINTMENTS TO SEE HIM

Psalm 146:3-5 (AMPC) “ Put not your trust in princes, in a son of man, in whom there is no help.   4 When his breath leaves him, he returns to his earth; in that very day his [previous] thoughts, plans, and purposes perish. [I Cor. 2:6.]   5 Happy (blessed, fortunate, enviable) is he who has the God of [special revelation to] Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God, [Gen. 32:30.]   Dear people of God, in this world, you always need to book an appointment to see a dignitary or an important personality.   Sometimes, you would need to visit the dignitary severally just to get that appointment because they are usually very busy attending to their personal, family and other humans’ needs.   There is a limit to the number of hours they can work and rest they must!   When you eventually get to see the dignitary, there is a limit to what he or she can do for you because his or her resources are limited.   For some humans, they woul...
