DON'T GIVE THE DEVIL AN INCH BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA


DON'T GIVE THE DEVIL AN INCH BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA

He is the chief commander of the army! What a great task that was committed into his hands? He was supposed to lead the warriors to the battle front but he decided to take some break. At least, he has been up and doing all this while, he should chill and enjoy the moment. 

It was a hot afternoon, the beauty to behold wanted to have a cool bath. Lo and behold, while he was enjoying the cool breeze in the verandah, he saw her. Who would not want to taste of this? He said to himself. He gave an order and she was brought to him. Oh my my! He enjoyed the moment. 

Few months after, she came with the pregnancy scan test. The beauty is pregnant! I even remember your husband is at the battle field. He will not slack at anytime, he is an active warrior who won't be at home when he is supposed to be at the war front. 

Okay! You can go back home, but please don't abort my baby. I will definitely find a way out. Way out? What's the way out? Hope he is not trying to aggravate his wrongs? 

Captain of the army, please send home the warrior! Without wasting time, the warrior was sent home to him. "You sent for me sir?" Yes, that's true. I must salute your courage and bravery. I think you really need to have some rests. Go home and enjoy yourself with the wife of your youth. She must have missed you. I know you are thinking now, that he wants to confess to the man and plead his forgiveness. The matter was different dear reader. Let's read on! To him, he was seeking a way cover his sin so as to hang the pregnancy on him. 

The warrior refused to go home, he stayed in his house all through the night. When he wasn't able to persuade him to go home to meet his wife, he determined to get rid of him. At least, no man will get to know what I have done. What a foolish thought? He forgets that nothing is hidden before God. 

He sent the warrior's death sentence letter through his own hands to the captain of the army. The letter reads "please put him where the battle is the fiercest so that he may die." Without wasting time, the warrior was murdered. 

Report of his death got to him and he immediately made the necessary preparations to marry his wife. The wife of his servant, the warrior became his property. What a greedy man? Who does that? 

A messenger was sent to him to bring to his consciousness his misdeed. He also faced the grave consequences for his wickedness. That which was born of the woman died before his eyes because God struck him. His own son, raped his blood sister. His own son conspired against him and took his throne from him. He regretted his acts. He did obtained mercy but he suffered for his wrongs! 

Moral of the story 
1: The best place a man can be at a time, is to be where God wants him to be. Another alternative is not the best. 
2: Don't give room to slackness at your duty post. The devil is waiting for the right time to strike. 
3: Don't try to cover your mistakes up. You are only aggravating the matter instead of seeking a way out. 
4: No matter how far you have strayed, God still loves you. Come back to him. 

N. B: This is the story of King David, Uriah, his wife and Joab.

THE POWER OF IMPURE THOUGHTS BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA

THE POWER OF IMPURE THOUGHTS BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA "When a man constantly feeds on impure substances, he is simply feeding his heart with garbage." Impure thoughts are powerful such that they render you incapacitated in the things of the spirit.  They have a way of captivating your heart and making you see no need for pressing deep into the realities of the spirit.  Those articles you have downloaded and digested can't add any substance of value to you, but would rather take away vital substance from you.  Those disgusting discussions you have engaged yourself in will only impair your vision.  Show me a man who has been feeding his heart with garbage, and I will show you a man who has been held captive by this garbage.  You can't continue to sow impure ideas and expect to reap pure meditation.  A man who engages himself in impure thoughts would only be a stumbling block to his growth.  No wonder you have been entan...

FLEE! BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA

FLEE! BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA Let's start this way!  What is flee? Flee means to run away; to escape. In other words, run for your life.  You think you still need to pray about it when God says flee?  That prayer of yours is foolishness when the word already says flee.  That lady came into your room in the night half naked and you started speaking in tongues. Will tongues chase her out at the moment? What can we call that act of yours, sir?  That man keeps giving you questionable attention, yet you continue to collect gifts from him instead of you to escape for your life.  When you accidentally bump into porn sites and you feel reluctant to leave, what are you supposed to do? Please flee. Don't feed your eyes with evil.  You don't need an audible voice to tell you that you are in danger zone when youthful lust comes knocking at your door.  Flee is the instruction given in the word of God.  D...

OVERFAMILIARITY CAN DENY US OF MANY BLESSINGS BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI

OVERFAMILIARITY CAN DENY US OF MANY BLESSINGS BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI Each time I am home, my sister would always beg me to plait my hair for me and I will be like you can't make my hair  but have seen her make beautiful hair for other people. What's worrying me? Overfamiliarity. I have been very amazed when people give testimony of how a man of God prays for them and they are healed. The wife of the same  man of God is at home sick but due to the unbelief of the wife and the familiarity, she doesn't believe in her husband's prayers and so she will remain in that state.  So many opportunities some of us have missed because we are proving too familiar with our friends. We think since we are close to them, we are closer to opportunities  and we can also misbehave. Some of us will not even ask questions about how they were able to get to that point. We know they are very much ahead of us, instead of us to humble ourselves, we bring ourselves to t...
