FACTS ABOUT THE NEW BIRTH (THE NEW CREATURE) 2 Corinthians 5:17 Just as we have been looking through this topic for the past four Wednesdays now, we can deduce that as soon as a anyone takes on the leadership of Jesus Christ, the new creature is activated immediately. This also indicates that a particular life is ended and another commences immediately. The old nature is gone and the new nature is activated. A particular life experience ends while another is automatically activated.  FIVE (5) FACT ABOUT THE NEW CREATURE 1. YOU ARE A CHILD OF GOD – John 8:44 You must understand that as soon as you become a New Creature, you are clothed with the garment of sonship to God who is now your Father. We have learnt in the previous lessons that sinners are Spiritual Seeds of Satan. Hence, the moment there is a New Life in Christ, there is a transfer from being a son of the devil to being the child of God. This sometimes doesn’t look like so because the devil sometimes comes and tells you di...

Text: Genesis 32:24-28 For the past three Mondays, we have been considering the topic “Manifested Glory” and one of the vital facts about the Manifestation of Glory is that until you take a bold step of faith, you may never experience it. The story in the Bible text above shows us a man who wrestled with an Angel until he got his solution. The first thing about that story is that he was swift enough to take hold of that opportunity to change his destiny, if he had missed that opportunity, another one wouldn’t have come. That is why we need to pray. 1. Father, as I am in your presence tonight, I am taking this opportunity, that manifested Glory that would change the situation of my life completely, let it happen to me tonight in Jesus Name. Another thing we can learn is that Jacob didn’t give. He could have decided to relax after he had made several attempts to plead his case but we saw that he stood with God till he got his miracle. 2. Father, I will not give up until you settle me in ...

Bible Text: Exodus 33:18-19 From the above scripture, we could learn that Moses placed a demand on God to see His Glory. The first Adam missed out of the glory of God, this is why it became a matter of contest before man could see God’s glory. Moses had not experienced the glory of God overtime. He looked at the course of His life and realized He needed the glory of God to live above all the occurrences of shame that had happened in his life. WHY DID MOSES ASK TO SEE GOD’S GLORY He knew his destiny wasn’t ordinary; he knew there was a great call about his destiny so he needed the glory of God to fuel it. Moses cried out to God because he knew needed God to accomplish the task that has been placed before him. 1. Father, all I am crying for tonight is your manifested glory, please show me your glory. God’s glory is the goodness of God; it is the presence of God. To earn God’s glory means to earn the totality of God. 2. Father, all I am asking for is your goodness – your manifested Glory ...

From the previous weeks on the topic “NEW BIRTH” , we have learnt that there is a new birth in Christ Jesus to all those who will surrender their will to him. Precisely last week, we learnt about “Life and Death” and we were able to establish the fact that there is a Life after we die of physical death. Using the story of Lazarus and the Rich man as a case study, we learnt that the rich man consistently fed his flesh and left the spirit stranded. And Lazarus on the other hand, though physically poor but his spirit was rich. And when the judgement day came, Lazarus entered into Abraham' Bosom while the rich man was left to suffer in pain. Lazarus enjoyed eternal life after death while the rich man had eternal death, which is the second death. Hence, we must ensure our spirit-man is greatly nourished above the flesh because man is a spirit being. For today’s teaching, we will be considering the sub topic: THE NEW CREATURE and our anchor scripture still remains 2 Corinthians 5:17.  ...

1 Samuel 17:49-51   As we continue from where we stopped last week, we need to remind ourselves that it took the manifested Glory of God upon David to eliminate Goliath. If not so, how would an ordinary stone bring such a giant down and then his head would be chopped off with his own sword. This makes us realize that the Glory of God was heavy upon David, which was why he could easily conquer Goliath. One of the strong points we could bring out from that story was that David jumped over Goliath which indicated that he was in charge. Whenever God would manifest His glory over anyone, He places the person over that challenge. I decree that God will position you over every challenge of your life in Jesus Name. We also observed that David was a man who worshipped God in Spirit and in Truth so this aided His victory – 2 Samuel 6:10-12 . So we can contact and connect the manifested Glory of God if we worship God in Spirit and in Truth. Until you are able to cry out unto God, your prayer...

Worship Worthy worthy worthy is the Lamb Worthy worthy worthy is the Lamb Worthy worthy worthy is the Lamb That was slain Glory Hallelujah,  Glory Hallelujah Glory Hallelujah, Praise the Lord We want to continue with our series on Topic: FROM LOCKDOWN TO LEAPING UP Text: Acts 3:1-8 In one of the series, we told you that when you are lifted up you start by standing and then you continue by walking and then you leap up again, you keep leaping after you have been standing and walking and you end up praising God. The first leaping brings you to standing and after you start walking, then there can be other leapings. The questions to ask today is How high can I leap or how high can I go? How high a man can lift you is determined by how tall he is. A short man can not lift you too high. The one lifting you can not lift you high beyond his height. Genesis 41:38-44. How high can God lift you? The answer is simple, how tall is God, Isaiah 66:1 (Heaven is my throne and the earth is my footsto...

CHARACTER BEFORE TALENT This millennial may know precious little about the life and career of Etim Esin. Etim Esin, Nigeria's First Football Superbrat, So good he was named African Maradona He hailed from Akwa Ibom state. No Nigerian player was as good as Etim Esin, not even Jay Jay Okocha. "In 1989, we had Etim Esin and we relied so much on him. The Super Eagles team was built around him because he had so much skill and had so much to offer. So we said this is our "Diego Maradona" in Nigeria because he can do anything with the ball. It was like he was born with the ball." - former Nigeria captain Late Stephen Keshi. Early in the year 1985, having just graduated from high school a few months earlier, Etim was on the roster of hometown team Oron Stars and they were billed to play the great Calabar Rivers at the football pitch of the University of Calabar in a routine pre-season warm up game. Rovers played in the top-flight and this was a game to help them prepare...

FOOTBALL GIST FIFA has taken full operational control of VAR's, world football's governing body has informed all associations. Gianluigi Buffon: "When I retire I will go back to school to finish my final year. My parents have been on my back about this for 25 years."  Kieran Tierney: “People back home ask me ‘what’s London like?’ But I have no idea because I’ve never been into the city. I train, I work hard, I go home to recover and I train the next day. It’s just a simple life and I put everything into football." Great mindset. Arsenal have now drawn more league games this season (14) than they have ever managed in a single 38-game top-flight campaign. The most in the division this season. 🤝 Daniel Sturridge is looking to move to either a major Ligue 1 club (he holidays in Cannes) or a MLS side this summer (he wants to set up his own record label in the US when he retires), according to L'Équipe. Yaya Sanogo (27) leaves Toulouse on a free transfer: "Ov...

FROM DEATH UNTO LIFE 2 Corinthians 5:1 7 It only takes thorough search through the Bible to find the truth at all times. This is because the Bible is a mysterious book, so anyone that will understand it but go through daily study and meditation. Also,we need the mind of God to understand the word of God. The sub-topic for today’s Rhema Time is divided into two, namely “DEATH and LIFE” so we are going to be picking it one after the other to know what God has for us. DEATH The first thing we must understand is that Death was never part of God’s plan for our lives. It was never God’s agenda for mankind. When God made Adam and placed him in charge of all that He created, Death wasn’t in the Manual God gave to him - I Corinthians 15:26 Hence, we need to understand the nature of man before we can know what Death means to man. 1. Man was not created as natural being, he was created as a Spiritual being - John 3:7, 1 Thess 5:23 2. Man was created as a tripartite being, having the Spirit, So...

Bible text: Exodus 14:34-35 When the cloud of Glory was upon the people of Israel, they abode at a particular place because the presence of God was so heavy upon them. The manifested glory of God is the grace of God fully developed. Another major fact we must understand about the Manifested Glory of God is that it is not a thing of the secret – it can’t be hidden. Whenever you come across the Glory of God, it is always evidential. Hebrews 1:3-4 When you encounter the Glory of God, men see you and they behold God Himself. A perfect example was Moses, after he had an encounter with God, the people couldn’t look into his eyes because He was heavily loaded with God’s presence. 1 Samuel 16:1 PRAYERS 1) Father, I go in the Power of your Might and your Manifested Glory in Jesus Name 2) Father, as I journey in the remaining days of this year, let your manifested Glory abide with me in Jesus Name

Bible Text: Colossians 1:16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. INTRODUCTION: The glory of God isn’t just a feeling, an event or an Old Testament experience, it is everything contained in the character of God. DIMENSIONS OF THE GLORY OF GOD How do we describe the glory of the indescribable One? For the purpose of this session, we will be dealing in Three (3) dimensions of the Glory of God: The Glory Of God In His Jealousy: 1 Corinthians 10:19-22 Jealousy would be defined as being intolerant or un-accepting of rivalry or unfaithfulness. God is passionately intolerant of rivalry and unfaithfulness, so God is jealous. He is a jealous God and strangely enough it is out of His jealousy that we see even better how glorious He is. God’s glory is seen in His jealousy. Jealousy is a strong emotion that also gets its power from...

ATLANTA '96: WHEN NIGERIA RULED THE WORLD It's been 20 years since Nigeria's football team made Olympic history but the memories remain as vivid as yesterday for a nation that, in the midst of misery, remembered what it... There are effectively two eras in Nigerian football: before 1994 and after; the former corresponding to a virtual Dark Age, and the latter, the summer of 1996 especially, to the Renaissance. The promise and excitement of the 1994 World Cup in the USA had been truncated in rather anticlimactic circumstances in the Round of 16 by eventual finalists Italy, leading to the exit of Dutch coach Clemens Westerhof. His assistant stayed on within the set-up though, and two years later, when Nigeria made a return to the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave, Jo Bonfrere held the reins. Significantly, Nigeria’s team for the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta contained more than a few players who had either graced the World Cup or had been within the set-up. Notably U...
