Faith is not just the substance of things hoped for, but the action you put to get an undisputed evidence.

war room
Okay, this is being posted late but this movie is a must watch. The movie is simply the best.
The movie portrays the power of putting your kneels on the ground to talk to the one who can actually change your story and give you a brand new start.
War room is about a family that thought they knew God because they went to church every Sunday but still were living a miserable life, every other day until God sent someone to them. I would call her the Elijah of her time in the movie, who was preparing a way for the Lord in the heart of people instead of the wilderness.
The movie encourages us to pray, pray for our nation, pray for our leaders, pray a kind of prayer that after we leave a spot people can still feel the Holy Spirit and know someone prayed here. The aim of the movie is to encourage Christians to pray till they receive change in all aspect of their lives and their family. It encourages trust in God and oneness with him (God).
As an individual
As a family
As a man in authority
As a church
The movie is saying we should use prayer to war against every and any situation because that is the only place we as Christians would have victory. God in His word has already promised to bind what we bind on earth in heaven and also lose whatever we lose on earth in heaven. So the request now is Lord teach me to grow my prayer life to be like a sword that would break lose every captive from darkness.
Philippians 4vs6
Be careful for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your request be known unto God
Let this be the hanging words over our ears that God is able to change the economy of this nation, change your family situation, heal you. The bible says if my people would humble themself and pray, I would hear from heaven and I will heal their land. 1thess.5vs 17 also speaks of us as Christians to pray without ceasing.
As Christians we should pray more, and the sun would rise again because God is sooooo much interested in hearing our voices each day.
Thank you and I hope you create a prayer alter today…
BE STILL
Hmmmm, life is funny.it has a way of making fun of one and making a person of strong will fill foolish. When life laughs, it tries to laugh out as loud as possible, that one begins to question HIS father in heaven. This type of laughter could bring great shame that goes straight for your heart and that moment we break.
This laughter is worse than human laughter, because it seems you are living but you don’t feel alive, the world outside is turning and yours is dying still. Things seem not to move and even when you take a step forward; it seems you just took ten backward. You cry out, pray out, praise out and it is still, still.
Ps 23 v 2b said….. He leads me beside the still waters. When everything seems still, then be STILL. Because God just said in the above scripture that He will lead you beside whatever is still in your life, yes, He knows it is still. Who else do you think can see you through? Who do you think can bring hope to you even when you think you are far in your still zone.
Mark 4 vs. 39 said……He awoke and rebuked the wind and said Peace BE STILL and the wind ceased, and there was great calm. Things are STILL with God for a reason, is not that the wind was not good, No, but it was not needed at that point in time, to show itself of. As hard as it may be or seem, WE need to be STILL like the wind so that the Name of God be glorified in our life.
sometimes things may happen and we say it is not God, so we look for alternative ways of getting what we want, but God is coming in straight for your heart and all He needs is you to BE STILL and know that HE is God, He would bring light to the darkest part to your life and everything would change…..just know you are not too FAR from HIM.
I guess what has been going on since I started writing could be to remind you and me that the night can’t last for long, so lift up your eyes, look beyond the clouds of life that laughs at you. You are going to make it. If your heart is breaking, because there is a promise to those that hold on even when you can’t imagine a way out. BE STILL………Ps 46 vs 10a………..BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD.
CALLING HEAVEN
Ring!!!! ring!!! ring!!
And an Angel picks my call,and He said how may i help you Daughter of Zion(calling my name),at first i was shocked that He knew my name so i asked. sorry please how did you know i was the one calling, i could feel the smile on his face as he spoke,he said that i am a regular caller and whenever i called the host of heaven in charge of my request and thanks giving were always happy,this was so pleasing to my ears that i could not help but blush.
well, after a long chat i told him(Angel) my request for that moment and told him that i needed the holy spirit to be my back up. he(Angel) said no problem.so my request started like this…….
IN THE NAME OF JESUS………………………..the moment i said that, the connection became faster and smoother,as if i was in the general store of the daily loads of blesses. And i began to make my request known.
long grant me long life
lead me oh lord
help me to be the head and not the tail. e.t.c
after the long telling of my list ,i was transferred to another service center were i was told that all the things i requested for has been delivered,and then in shock i asked ,how come i have not seen my packages,the angel replied, that the day i gave my life to Christ all i needed to run the NARROW ROAD was given to me but i am only able to access them in the name of JESUS.
He went further to tell me more,he told me that i am a share holder in Heaven,and for me to acquire more share i needed to follow the manual which every shareholder have(BIBLE)and i have all the entitlement of a share holder as far as i don’t fall short of the glory of God.
Hmmmmmm, i was humbled but in all this i realized that for any speedy answer to any request(prayer) the name of Jesus should not be ignored.
remain bless.

coconunt christian
Today March 19th ,2015, I was with choristers of Covenant University ,which I proudly belong to. We were praying for our concert which is to take place on the March 22nd ,2015 titled IN HIS PRESENCE. This is a much talked about program that we started preparation for months ago but on this faithful day as the children of God were praying the only thing I heard was that we are COCONUTS. This got me thinking, and I asked myself, why I should be thinking of such but it kept ringing and during a prayer point I understood the meaning…
Now let me explain this to you how I was explained to, I will try and make you understand but you need the understanding of God to make this work. You and I know that there are many sides to a coconut that makes it a COCONUT. Firstly, from the tree it has a green bark, then a brown bark which is rough, has sharp thorns and quite hard. We then have the inner part which is also brown but smooth, the white part which many people love then the water which I don’t still understand how it got in. Now as Christians we are in our green stage when Christ paid a price HE did not owe, by buying us from the devil and freeing us from his(devil) bondage, we enter the next stage with the rough bark of the coconut when we do not get our lives to Christ and we do all sought of things, why? Because we don’t care about God who paid the price and we also don’t know how much he cares but when we get to care and realize how much HE(JESUS) loves us and cares for us we then enter the next stage which is the smooth brown back: Christians who pray, speak in tongues, attend church meetings and programs but still listen to worldly music, still keep malice, still lie, still cheat, still do so much that is not right. now you may be asking me what is right ? I believe what is right is what you do and the Spirit of God in you and the presence of God in you do not frown at it and still will give you a lending hand. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
The next not to bore you is the white part ,this is when you have overcame your flesh, when the stirring of waters can happen by you, when men and women will see the fulfillment of prophecies, like when the scriptures said greater works shall ye do. This is a stage that when men and women see you they would call you blessed, because why, you are as the white as a coconut inside and milky as it is when stewed without its back. At this stage you are ready to explode in singing, writing, dancing etc. When this takes place the water in which we do not know how it entered would break lose and people would experience the flow of God in you, the regular question would be how did she/he become this famous, rich, intelligent, anointed .etc. But all this has always been in us because the Bible says HE called us to be the sons of God, so when you are a son of GOD,which means you have the same blood and genotype as GOD and work under the function and auction of that GOD works.
That is where the fulfillment of the scriptures starts to take place and people call you BLESSED.
RELATIONSHIP
OKAY I KNOW WE HAVE HEARD ABOUT RELATIONSHIPS A LOT, BUT RIGHT NOW I’M ABOUT TO TELL YOU OF SOMEONE YOU HAVE BEEN DATING FOR SO LONG AND PROBABLY DO NOT KNOW,HMMMMMMM………DID YOU JUST ASK IF THAT IS POSSIBLE? OKAY LET ME SHOW YOU THAT IT IS.
WE AS CHRISTIANS ARE IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS ,MOST OF US KNOW BUT WE DO NOT KNOW HOW WE GOT INTO IT AND SOME OTHERS KNOW HOW THEY GOT INTO IT BUT DON’T KNOW HOW BEST TO KEEP IT SO I PRAY THIS SHOULD HELP YOU UNDERSTAND IT.
“RELATIONSHIP”
IN EVERY RELATIONSHIP WE HAVE THE GUY’S SETTING THE PACE AND AFTER HE DOES THAT WELL…YOU KNOW WHAT NEXT. JESUS IN THIS RELATIONSHIP IS SETTING THE PACE AS OUR CURRENT GUYS DO AND HOW DID HE DO THIS , BY SENDING PREACHERS ,MISSIONARIES TO YOU AND I TO PREPARE OUR MIND FOR HIM THOUGH CURRENT GUYS (EARTHLY GUYS) DO IT WITH MATERIAL THINGS. THE NEXT STEP JESUS TOOK WAS TO SHOW US LOVE AND BY BLESSING US WITH EVERY THING WE DESIRE THAT IS GOOD ,THAT WOULD ALSO CREATE COMFORT. AFTER THAT HE( JESUS) TOOK THE BOLD STEP TO ASK YOU AND ME OUT ,THROUGH WHAT WE KNOW AS ALTER CALLS. DURING THIS PERIOD WE AGREE AND START DATING HIM(JESUS), DURING THIS PERIOD WE START COURTING(COURTSHIP),THIS PERIOD IS WHEN YOU READ YOUR BIBLE EVERY DAY, PRAY, FAST, ATTEND CHURCH PROGRAMMES, BE GOOD AND JESUS SEES YOU AND LOVES YOU MORE THAN EVER AND PROPOSE MARRIAGE AND YOU AGREE.
SO YOU MARRY AND AFTER FEW MONTHS OF MARRIAGE TO JESUS, YOU FEEL LIKE YES, I HAVE GOTTEN HIM SO WHAT MORE DO I NEED,THIS PERIOD IS WHEN YOU STOP GIVING HIM SO MUCH ATTENTION AS BEFORE,NO MORE SPECIAL TIME AND MOMENT AS YOU SHARED BEFORE MARRIAGE, BECAUSE YOU ARE ALREADY HIS BRIDE. THE ONE WHO PAID THE BRIDE PRICE WITH HIS LIFE, THE ONE THAT WHO HAD SLEEPLESS NIGHT FOR YOU, SO THAT YOUR HEART DESIRES WOULD BE ANSWERED AND DELIVERED FROM THE FACTORY OF BLESSING WHICH BELONGS TO HIM (JESUS).
AFTER ALL THIS, ALL HE WANT IS A CHILD OR CHILDREN FROM HIS BRIDE WHICH IS SOUL WINNING, YOU GETTING OTHERS TO KNOW HIM MORE, BY PREACHING THE WORD, LIVING THE WORD, THAT WOULD CREATE THE BIRTH OF A CHILD OR CHILDREN WHO WOULD SURROUND HIS TABLE BUT WE AS BRIDE ALL WE THINK OF IS OUR BODY AND SHAPE (PHYSICAL AIMS). THE AIM OF THIS MARRIAGE WAS TO BE FRUITFUL AND MULTIPLY (WIN SOULS)
SO IN ALL, THIS IS HOW FAR YOU CAN RATE YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS
I PRAY I WILL BE A BETTER BRIDE .
THANK YOU.

Review of the Movie:ANOTHER PERFECT STRANGER
The movie perfect stranger is all about a girl who did not believe God existed, she ran away from home because her loving parents where all about her giving her life fully to God but she did not believe it was necessary because she hated religion.
In the movie the difference between Christianity and religion was made known to us. While running away, she meets with Jesus on the plane(without knowing it was Jesus) and there He made her know all she needed to know,she told a stranger her deepest secret, because He never judged her belief but instead loved her in her disagreement that Jesus(God) really existed, HIS love was further shown when she told Him how she was raped,He wept and still showed her more love.
One can experience God in different ways but this girl spoke to Jesus,touched Him and ate with Him but still did not know He was the one till He left her.
However, according to the movie her mother also experienced Jesus but after having dinner with Him.
In conclusion,let your heart be open,do not look at your past because God is not concerned all He needs is to be your number one lover and you His bride.
A sign that the girl knew it was God was the nail that went through his skin.
