    What does revival look like?

    “That is why the Lord says, ‘turn to me now, while there is time. Give me your hearts. Come with fasting, weeping, and mourning.

    Ash Wednesday (B). Too often we focus on our outward behavior, our sins. But the root of our problem is not sins, but sin, our sinful nature. Joel urges us to "Turn to God and live."

    J. J. May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen. “Give up giving up” What are you giving up for Lent? Anything? Some people give up something for lent. Not with the purpose of earning ...read more

    And so, what I learned through these experiences is that it is good to be able to make decisions; I don’t want to be one of those people who are unable to decide; but I need to know that there is usually someone over me that makes the final decision

    Introduction When I got my driver’s license as a teenager, my parents did not automatically buy me a car like parents do today. So, I would make some decisions with my friends what we wanted to do over the weekend, and then I would have to go to my dad and ask him if I could borrow the family ...read more

    Though Joel is a book of Judgment, it is also a book of Hope. In this book, God’s people are made to understand that even in the midst of divine judgment there is always hope if they will simply and humbly seek the Lord (2:12-13).

    IT’S NOT TOO LATE! Joel 2:12-13 “Therefore also now, saith the LORD, turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: 13 And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of ...read more

    Our life should be all about living in expectation for Christ's return. Praying for the end. Working for the kingdom. Making sure that we’re at peace with God, and at peace with each other.

    If we ever have questions about the end of the world and about what will happen when King Jesus returns in glory, we turn to the book of Revelation. There in that last book of the Bible, there’s much about the end-times: signs and wonders, disasters and persecutions, and the Lord Jesus coming in ...read more

    Repentance... How would you define it? It may be the case if I asked every person in this room to give me a definition of repentance, I may get quite a few different answers. This is a subject that I believe is greatly misunderstood in the religious world

    Genesis 1.14, tells us that God created the Moon & heavenly lights to be for signs and for seasons and for days and years. It’s like God wants to signal us about His appearing/coming. If so, what is the signal? What “signs” should we be aware of?

    Supernatural Restoration

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Apr 26, 2025
     | 202 views

    Supernatural restoration is when God steps into your situation and reverses every loss, heals every hurt, and repays every injustice. It goes beyond human repair; it is divine re-creation. When God restores, He does it in such a way that what was lost cannot be compared to what is gained.

    SUPERNATURAL RESTORATION By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Joel 2:25-26 "And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.
