    based on 1 rating
     | 4,714 views

    The success of a pastor cannot be fully measured until after his departure. If he has equipped the church to continue in his absence, then his ministry will have been successful.

    The Gratitude for the Saints 2 Peter 1: 12-15 As we continue to examine this first chapter of Peter’s second epistle, I am convicted and encouraged by the heart of this man of God. His love and concern for the church cannot be missed or overlooked. He is now a seasoned apostle and his focus is ...read more

    Faith’s Response To The Word For Optimal Profit

    Contributed by James Awosina on Jul 2, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,375 views

    To profit from the Word requires an action of faith. Reading, hearing and receiving the Word passively and superficially is of no profit to a person.

    FAITH’S RESPONSE TO THE WORD FOR OPTIMAL PROFIT Hebrews 4:2 “For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it” “The Word preached did not profit them…” What a fearful declaration!

    Studying For Divine Approval

    Contributed by James Awosina on Jul 5, 2019
     | 8,491 views

    The apostolic charge to every preacher and teacher of the word is "study". Our ministry will lack the substance of divine approval and saving, sanctifying power without the diligent study of the Word of God on daily basis.

    STUDYING FOR DIVINE APPROVAL 2 Timothy 2:15 “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth” Paul was Timothy’s mentor, pastor and leader. He understood perfectly Timothy’s shortcomings as a young pastor under his tutelage. To ...read more

    Contributed by James Awosina on Jul 15, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,883 views

    The route to the experience of the presence of God is earnest desire to seek Him. God will not draw near to us if we have no thirst and hunger for His fellowship.

    INTIMACY WITH GOD: OUR SOULS’ DESPERATE NEED Psalms 42:1 “As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God” In these days of abysmal disconnect from God, the most fitting inspirational counsel is “Draw nigh to God” James 4:8. Our hearts are prone to wander away ...read more

    When Thomas Spoke Up for Jesus Introduction: When we think of the men Jesus called to be His disciples, we can forget, sometimes, that they were human beings just like us.
