A father's Duty



Ephesians 6:4
Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.


Exposition 

Malachi 4:6 promised that fathers and children would be reunited in heart. Let's make that true in our homes by nurturing and correcting our children — with a balance between nurture and correction. 

Let's not make our faith so full of rules and restrictions that it becomes impossible for our children to hear that they are our beloved children, with whom we are very pleased!

 Let's not grant so much freedom that our children feel neglected and uncertain. Let's turn our hearts toward them and pray for God to turn their hearts toward their home with us and their home with you!


Prayer  

O Lord God Almighty, Abba Father, our land lies under a curse because so many Fathers have spiritually and physically abandoned their children.

 Please raise up parents, especially fathers, who will balance the challenging tasks of love, nurture, and correction so that our land may be healed and our children may know your love and grace. In Jesus name. Amen.

You're Nothing without Me, says the LORD

Matthew:19.26  Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." Exposition Beloved, God is God. His potency makes Him God. His independence in decisions makes Him God. His ability to known and seen everywhere is what makes Him different from  humanity. This being known, why are you still seeing impossibilities in what you do? Have you forgotten about God's existence so soon? Don't be doing the probability calculation for God. He's a mathematician on His own. Don't think for Him either, He has His own head to reason. Whatever thing you are doing, whatever you so dream about ; God is making it possible. The word said 'This' meaning there's that particular thing that seems impossible to man, but to God, It's ever possible. God is able to do, just what He says He will do. Just invite Him, He is ever ready to help. He's only waiting on your call. Prayer Father, have mer...

3 Secrets to Happiness ☺️

Happiness is sought by many in this world. Yet how many people enjoy this gift? Once you're born into a family, your joy begins from there. That's where you are thought the basics. Life without happiness is like a tree without leaves. Let's look at how we can be happy without restrictions. Be with those who rebuke you . I know this may sound weird but think about it. Joseph, though, was with his family. They always rebuked his dream. He became the breadwinner.  Those who rebuke you, dare you to bring your best and be your best? They know what's inside you, but you know where you're going with it. The rebuke will only remember you you have somewhere going. Don't be sad when they do. Please Nobody  Your dream is in your mind. You don't owe anybody an explanation of its fulfilment. Yours is to believe and work towards achieving it. Don't consider what people say or think about your aims and visions for life. Work it out with those who believe in it. Be sinc...

The 3 Enemies of Christ

Living your life as a Christian doesn't mean you are on your own. Being under grace doesn't guarantee you access to continue living in sin.  1st Enemy : Anyone whose destiny is destruction.  This may sound ironic, but what it really means is that anyone who ends up living their life just to cause harm. Is an enemy of Christ. This is because it is the devil who came to steal, kill, and destroy. Your purpose for being alive shouldn't limit you to causing harm to people.  2nd Enemy:   Anyone whose god is their stomach.  How can your stomach be your god? Simple, anytime you put your stomach first above all priorities. Even when you're expected to fast, that's where you try remembering a befitting ailment. The little money you get all ends up in your stomach.  3rd Enemy: mindset on only earthly things.  We are living in a generation where your wealth defines your worth. We've forgotten about the existence of God, the Supreme being, and the maker of the un...
