Holy Spirit- The Resurrection Power

The Power of His [Christ’s] Resurrection is the Holy Spirit. He [The Holy Spirit] is the power of God Who raised Jesus from the dead.

So we see the Triune God [Trinity- God The Father, God The Son, and God The Holy Spirit] at work in Resurrection. Praise The Lord!

“And he was shown to be the Son of God when he was raised from the dead by the power of the Holy Spirit. He is Jesus Christ our Lord.”- Roman 1:4 

May the resurrection power in-dwell you today and quicken your mortal body in Jesus name-Amen!

“And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you.”- Romans 8:11

In Times of Adversity- SERIES 2

Commit Your Case to God & Hope in Him

Adversity is defined as 'a difficult or unpleasant situation.'

According to the latest figures from the World Health Organisation, over a million people have been infected globally with Coronavirus (COVID-19). This is a very disturbing news in view of reports from Johns Hopkins University indicating a global death toll of over 70,000 people from the virus.

How then, do you react in times like these?                                                             
What do you do in times of adversity?

Please observe all government health, hygiene, social distancing and stay home guidelines. 
In addition, let us look at the Bible (Job Chapters 5,13 & 14) for examples and answers:

1-) Appeal to God in prayer continuously
"Yet man is born to trouble as surely as sparks fly upward."- Job 5:7 NIV
"However, if I were you, I would appeal to God and would present my case to him."- Job 5:8 CSB
In difficult, uncertain and troubling times like this, wisdom demands that we seek the face of God continuously, and appeal for His mercy and help.

In Times of Adversity- SERIES 1

Return to God & Develop a Close Relationship with Him 

Adversity is defined as 'a difficult or unpleasant situation.'

At a time when Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has claimed over 24,000 lives, and over a quarter of the world's population is under some form of lockdown. These are indeed difficult and unpleasant times!

How then, do you react in times like these?
What do you do in times of adversity?

Please observe all government health, hygiene and stay at home instructions and policies.
In addition, let us look at the Bible (the book of Job 22:21-30) for examples and answers:

1-) Get to know God more
"Get to know God, and you'll be at peace with him, and then prosperity will come to you."- Job 22:21 ISV
Submit your life to God. Spend more time in His presence. Get acquainted with the Lord. This will give you peace.

You must be born again

Spiritual birth, not human birth is a Prerequisite for acceptance and entrance into the Kingdom of God.

“Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’” -John 3:5-7

 

Forgiveness

If man’s greatest need in life was pleasure, then God would have sent an entertainer. If man’s greatest need would have been money, then He would have sent a financial consultant. If man’s greatest need would have been for information, He would have sent an educator.

 

But God in His infinite wisdom knew that man’s greatest need was forgiveness — and so He sent a Saviour (Matthew 1:21).

Consult God

Man's duty is to make plans (for his life, activities, undertakings ...), God's duty is to determine and confirm the outcomes of man's plans.

So, why not seek and consult God, before making plans for your activities today.

Have a full-filling day.

"We can make our plans, but the LORD determines our steps."- Proverbs 16:9

"We make our own decisions, but the Lord alone determines what happens."- Proverbs 16:33

The Journey of Faith

The life of a Christian is a Journey of Faith.

“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.”- 2 Timothy 4:7

Dealing with evil spirits: In the name of Jesus

The following excerpts on dealing with evil spirits is from Kenneth Hagin's book 'The Triumphant Church' :

"I asked Jesus, "Lord, how do I deal with the evil spirit in this woman?" The Lord answered, "You just simply say, You foul spirit that is operating and manifesting yourself in the life of ______________ (and Jesus called the woman's name), I command you to stop in your operations. I command you to cease and desist in your

maneuvers, in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ."

 

I said, "Is that all I have to do?" I thought perhaps I would have to prepare myself and get ready or some big battle or something. 

Evangelism! Evangelism!! Evangelism!!!

'God will go with us, but God won't go for us'

"And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen."- Mark 16:20

God is with us

God's presence with a man, woman or people is perhaps the greatest privilege we can enjoy in life as children of God.

When the presence of God is with a people, God watches over them; God provides for them; God protects them; God cares for them; God defends them etc.

In the Bible, a man called Daniel was wrongly accused and thrown into Lions' Den, but the lions could not hurt him because God's presence was there in the Den with him.
