THE gOD OF FOOTBALL

THE gOD OF FOOTBALL

Football is a game

It is famous, admiring and patronizing across the globe

The game of football continue to dominate many spheres of life

Many people consider it as their source of entertainment, happiness and riches!

Football is a god in this world

It has many devout worshippers

These worshippers mostly honour it with their time and money

Their devotion to football is greater than their devotion to the Lord God Almighty.

The god of football is ignorantly being exalted above the true God

This is a great error and idolatory

The error is in honouring the god of football more than the true God

The idolatry is in spending most of one’s time and thinking on football.

No one can serve the god of football and the true God

A person will hate one and love the other

That person will be loyal to one and despise the other

No person can serve the true God and the god of football.

SHOWERS OF HEAVEN

Africa is not a second-hand continent.

Imposition of taxes becomes a political tool for stealing if the collected revenue is wrongfully misapplied.

Undeniable facts do not override what God has said or promised to you if we continue to trust Him.

Good name is God’s highest blessings He gives any person He loves and favours.

Real hope is rooted in divine love.

God is not just mighty and powerful; He is the Almighty and the All-powerful.

Any greatness that stems from only a human effort is at best animalistic and a shadow!

THE BEST GIFT EVER GIVEN

THE BEST GIFT EVER GIVEN

Diamond, gold, silver and wisdom are good gifts

They can make even the worst pauper or even an idiot rich

Everybody desires to be rich

But diamond, gold, silver and wisdom are not the best of gifts.

It’s said in the Christian community that Jesus is God’s best gift to this world

It’s arguably also said that the Holy Spirit is Jesus’s best gift to his believers

Does it therefore mean that Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit are the best gifts ever given? No!

They are not the best gifts ever given because they’re given for a specific period.

God has given a better gift than Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit

That gift is not only honoured on earth but in the heavens also

That gift is more eternal

That gift is given to people who please God in their life time

That gift was first given to Jesus Christ for his sacrifice for the world.

The best gift ever given is a good name              

A good name is always better than riches

That is why God gave Jesus the name that’s above all other names

At the mention of Jesus every knee bows and every tongue confesses

The best gift God desires to give to you is a good name, not riches!

SHOWERS OF HEAVEN – Daily Light Series 4

SHOWERS OF HEAVEN

People who offend you can never rise above you in this life if you continue to love them.

The best way to respond to most foolish attitudes is silence.

The basis for the last day judgment is how we responded to God’s unconditional love, and how we demonstrated this love towards others.

The highest form of sound spirituality is when waiting upon or on God becomes a person’s lifestyle.

I am so glad to know that “the whole of life is spiritual, not just part of it.”

“My experience in ministry has taught me that those who profess to be Christians and yet deliberately absent themselves from fellowship with their brothers and sisters are the ones who are usually most in need of this fellowship” – Selwyn Hughes. I agree with Selwyn because his experience is a practical truth.

I agree with the assertion that there is nothing like a harsh or painful truth. Truth is indeed neither harsh nor painful; it may appear so because of how we say it.
