This series has been a blessing to me, I hope you've been blessed too? Beloved friends, because of my love for Jesus Christ , I am now his prisoner for the sake of all of you who are not Jews, so that you will hear the gospel that God has entrusted to me to share with you. For this wonderful mystery, which I briefly described, was given to me by divine revelation, so that whenever you read it you will be able to understand my revelation and insight into the secret mystery of the Messiah. Ephesians 3:1‭-‬4 Paul had to give us an opening insight to what this chapter is all about. He was about to tell them of a great mystery but had to forewarn them in advance that the mystery wasn't him initiated, it's God revealed.  There has never been a generation that has been given the detailed understanding of this glorious and divine mystery until now. He kept it a secret until this generation. God is revealing it only now to his sacred apostles and prophets by the Holy Spi...

Welcome!!! I really hope Yesterday's episode blessed you?  We move again 💃💃💃 And his fullness fills you , even though you were once like corpses, dead in your sins and offenses. Ephesians 2:1  Okay, at this point you really have to pause and re-read that. While you were in your sins, dead, he saw beyond that, he saw what you could become; one filled with his fullness, and so he filled you.  It wasn’t that long ago that you lived in the religion, customs, and values of this world, obeying the dark ruler of the earthly realm who fills the atmosphere with his authority, and works diligently in the hearts of those who are disobedient to the truth of God. The corruption that was in us from birth was expressed through the deeds and desires of our self-life. We lived by whatever natural cravings and thoughts our minds dictated, living as rebellious children subject to God’s wrath like everyone else. Ephesians 2:2‭-‬3  At some points of our lives, we all lived...

Welcome!!!  For the course of this journey, I'll be quoting from "The Passion translation", except stated otherwise. Grab a chair, a cup of coffee, your notepad and your Bible. Let's journey together.  I’m writing this letter to all the devoted believers who have been made holy by being one with Jesus, the Anointed One. May God himself, the heavenly Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, release grace over you and impart total well-being into your lives. Ephesians 1:2   I said earlier in my previous post , that this letter or epistle was written to "New creation believers" and here in verse 2, we see Paul addressing them. ( I'll like you to follow this course with you in mind, not the Ephesian church in mind).  Here ( vs2) we see that there's grace released over us already to impart total well-being into our lives.  Every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realm has already been lavished upon us as a love gift from our wonderful heavenly Father, the Father...

It's with immerse joy in my heart that I announce that for the next couple of days or more, we'd be having a walk together through the book of Ephesians.  The reason for this walk will become clearer as we progress as we trust the Holy Spirit to walk with us  Moreover, what better time could we spend studying the book of Ephesians than now? Let me give you a little insight on what the book of Ephesians is all about.  1. It talks about our foundation in Christ: A lot of believers are yet to fully grasp who they are in Christ, this walk will become unveiling your identity in Christ.  2. It talks about God's plan for the church: We are the church, not the building, and this letter of Paul shows us what God did in redemptive history by making the church (By making us)  3. It reveals the Glory of God and his Grace. The last but not the least    4. The word "Ephesians" means " Early/New Christians". So the letter to the Ephesians was a letter to the "New ...

Hey, I am not expecting you to be all grown at once, it takes process but all I'm saying is "Don't stop moving, those baby steps matter, I'm not expecting you to start running now, trust me, I'm expecting the falls and scratches that come with it, but don't stop moving " While the world's ideology is "Perfection at Inception", my stand remains "Perfection at Continuation".  You might fall, no darling, you'll fall, but don't you dare remain on the ground. Stand, and take those steps, because while you're at it, you are gaining balance and you are beginning to take root in me. You begin to stand on the solid rock that won't fail.  Hey baby, those steps really matter Please take it and don't stop.  It's okay to feel frustrated at times, it's okay to feel down, but don't you for once forget that I'm Love and continually will I Love. Need I remind you that once you're with me, there...

Early one Saturday morning , after our usual morning devotion, my dad loves to watch the early morning news, because according to him, it's undiluted (Let's cut the old man some slack, but I honestly don't understand diluted and undiluted news). we immediately switched on the television to watch the news, but along the line as we searched for the news station, the person with the remote mistakenly or deliberately, tuned in to the famous NATGEO WILD (For those that don't know, this t.v station airs animal documentary).  As soon as he tuned it to this station, I got glued to my position as my eyes was fixed on the t. v screen. I was intrigued at what I saw, let me cut to the chase, and tell you what I saw. I was watching the Lion (The acclaimed King of the jungle), hunt and kill preys. Mind you, it's not the fact that he was hunting and killing preys that caught my attention, it's the attitude to which he did that got me. According to research, the ...

Mr O,  as fondly called by friends and neighbor was a hardworking and zealous man. At age 40 he retired from active service and started overseeing his company. He was a Christian and a good one at that. He was loved by many due to his warming and welcoming character. I remember a time he opened his home to strangers who had come from a very far place and had nowhere to lay their head. I was astonished at his behavior because none of us in the community knew this people from anywhere. Well,  this was just how he was. After his 50th birthday, Mr O took ill, it began with a mild fever that he waved aside as a little sickness, it escalated to stroke and before we knew it, Mr O was completely paralyzed. Wow, what a drastic and sad change. Mr O was taken from one hospital to another,  but without any positive change. His family members opted for prayer houses as according to them, his situation has exceeded hospitals Pastors trooped in and out of Mr O's house, everybody...
