Epiphany - A Bright Idea

Contributed by Robbie Parsons on Dec 26, 2024

An examination of epiphany through the visit of the magi to the toddler Jesus. Their gifts stimulate us to living out our Christian lives in this new year by living holy lives that glorify God.

The earliest reference to Epiphany as a Christian feast was in AD 361, by Ammianus Marcellinus. The holiday is listed twice, which suggests a double feast of baptism and birth. The baptism of Jesus was originally assigned to the same date as the birth because Luke 3:23 was read to mean that Jesus ...read more

When The Heavens Are Opened

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jan 22, 2025

Open heavens signify divine access, favour, and intervention. When the heavens are opened, the supernatural becomes evident in the natural, and God’s blessings, presence, and voice are revealed. It is a season of transformation, where limitations are removed, and breakthroughs are experienced.

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Matthew 3:16-17 “When He had been baptised, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him.

Preparing For Easter: An Outline For An Easter Sunday Message

Total Surrender

Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on Apr 20, 2023

The power of the Holy Spirit deposited in the life of a believer cannot be fully exercised until the believer fully surrenders all to Jesus Christ. We don't need more power, we only need to surrender more to God to put the power in action.

TEXT: MARK 14:36 (NKJV) "And He said, “Abba, Father, all things are possible for You. Take this cup away from Me; nevertheless, not what I will, but what You will.” GOD'S POWER IS AVAILABLE The power of the Holy Spirit deposited in the life of a believer cannot be fully exercised until ...read more

Family Services For God

Contributed by Dr. Abraham Obadare on May 11, 2024

Joshua said, “But for me and my family, we will serve the Lord.” (Joshua 24:15 NLT) I want to use this opportunity to inspire parents to view God's service as a shared family endeavor.

Often, Satan sows seeds of discouragement to deter families from serving God. When a parent is actively involved in God's service, questions may arise about why their children should also be deeply involved. For instance, if one parent is a choir leader, gatekeeper, or priest, and one or two of ...read more

Church Laziness While Waiting For God

Be that as it may, their absence of action just drove them into ...read more
