GOODNIGHT OR GOODBYE BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA



GOODNIGHT OR GOODBYE BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA

Pastor told of us a man who was going to die, he had two sons, one was born again while the other one was not. He called them to his side and gave them farewell message. After the whole thing, he said goodnight to the one who was born again  and goodbye to the other son.


The other son was eager to know why he made two different statements to them.

Hear his response:
"I bid you goodbye because after this place, we can never meet again. This is because we are not on the same path.
I said goodnight to your brother because I know we shall see again. This is because we are on the same path.

Now, when someone dies in the Lord, he has gone to rest. Those who know they are identified with Christ know they will see him after a while when the roll is called up yonder.

Someone who dies outside of Christ has no meeting point again with someone who died in the Lord. They are not on the same path, they are two parallel lines that can never meet.

That mother of yours whom you love to your bones is in Christ while you are still outside enjoying the time of your life. Her salvation cannot be shared with you. It is true you love her but after this place, you can no longer meet. Individual will go their separate ways.

Therefore, we don't need to shed too much tears for that person who died in the Lord for we know he shall be quickened on the day of the Lord. We shall see ourselves and we shall know ourselves on that day.

Friend, if you die today, is it goodnight or goodbye?

My intention is not to scare you tonight but to make you understand why you need Jesus. He's not faraway. He is nearer than you think. Allow Him a space in your heart today.

And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them. Revelation 14:13

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...
