OUR HOPE STANDS SURE IN CHRIST BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI

If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men the most pitiable. 1Corinthians 15:19

We have a hope in Christ in this life and in the age to come. We are not of this world. We are not of this era. Though we are present here, we know we are here temporarily. We are aware our species is not for this place eternally.

For the Lord shall come in a short while for us. He has gone ahead to prepare us a place.

It has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we have the hope that we shall be like Him when we see Him and those who have this hope in them purify themselves, just as He is pure. 1John 3:2-3.

In that place, nothing unclean shall enter. Nothing vile shall creep in for He who dwells there is Holy, so also are those who must enter there.

In that place, there shall be no remembrance of past failures, turmoils or any evil for He shall make all things new. In that place, there shall be no remembrance of class assignment, worries and cares. Tears shall be wiped away.

Glory! We shall see Daddy Paul, we shall see Uncle Peter and all the Apostles who were faithful to the end. We shall see the father of faith, Father Abraham and all other patriarchs of faith. Jesus, we shall behold face to face. What a great joy that fills my heart. We shall see the Almighty God who hides Himself in Light. We shall see Him face to face.

But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory just as by the Spirit of the Lord. 2 Corinthians 3:18

Transformation must happen to us as we behold Him in the word so that we may be just like Him when He appears and so that we may not be ashamed when we see Him.

How expectant are you? We can't afford to be idle because He is coming for us. Foolishness is far from us as Christ's brides. We know we are only here for a moment, therefore we can't be carried away. We are waiting for the bridegroom.

This hope fills our hearts with joy because we are not going to be here forever. Though we know He is coming back for us, we are not going to meet him as victims of life but as victors whom He has made us to be. We won't be irrelevant here while waiting for Him. We shall occupy till He comes.

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...

NOT WITHOUT A FATHER

NOT WITHOUT A FATHER For those who are so close to me, they will know I rarely mention my Dad. He's alive and healthy. I grew up not knowing my Dad. I grew up not knowing what fatherly love meant. My Dad is very much alive but we are far from each other. I was around 11 years or so before he came looking for me. First of all, I am grateful to God for giving me my mum. She went through a lot raising me. So, while I was growing up, I envied those who talked about their dad so much. I wish I could be like them. I wish I could have someone who would be able to show me love. I didn't know fatherly love not until when I met my Spiritual father in Ibadan in 2010. He received me with open arms. For several years, I lived with hurt and hatred in my heart. I cried bitterly most times when I reminisce about so many things. A day came when I heard God said to me"For this reason were you separated from your mother's womb, you are not accidental...

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...

HOW I NARROWLY ESCAPED RAPE

HOW I NARROWLY ESCAPED RAPE Okay, before you go on, I am sending a big hug to you if you are a rape victim. I know it's not easy forgetting the ugly incidence but I want to tell you to let go of the past. I am not here to point accusing finger at you for whatever happened in the past. The past is past. Let your new you emerge. Come to love yourself. Forgive yourself. Forgive that person who defiled you. Let God wrap you in His arms. Majority of rape incidence happens because of the carelessness on the part of the lady. A lady who's frequenting a guy's house in odd hours may not return the same way she came if she's not careful. We can't also overlook the fact that some guys are monsters. They are wolves in sheep's clothing. They may appear harmless but they are like serpents. May God arrests their hearts. One day Dinah, Leah's daughter, went to visit some of the young women who lived in the area. But when the local prince, Shechem son of ...
