Let's Honour God In This Lockdown

-

 


Honor the LORD with your possessions, And with the firstfruits of all your increase Proverbs 3:9

As we enter another lockdown, God is calling us more than ever to serve Him as the world is in a pandemic where we don't know when we're coming out of it, the world is getting worse and the end times as Revelation's, prophecies is near and near. With no church and more live streams it's time for us to step up, it's time for us to make our homes the church and be stronger in our faith more than ever. 

The devil is licking his lips and rubbing his hands together, because he knows this is an opportunity to trap many Christians, make Christians doubt if God is real. This pandemic is hitting everyone black, white, poor, rich, celebrities, big companies that's been around for 100's of year's, we are all like Job where we are in a rot, but just like God blessed Job 100 fold, He will do the same for us. I won't lie I fell into many of his traps in the last lock down I sinned, I became lazy and very cold in my faith. I got so low my family members noticed as I was in a downward spiral in my spiritual life. But before church was invented people served in tents or people would serve in the streets in the biblical times. Like the saying say's if life gives you lemons make Sprite. What I mean by this saying is we have to make things happen in a restricted time, yes we can't go to church but that's no excuse to slack in our faith.   

I had a conversation with a good friend of mine and he was telling me a lot of people in our church have left the faith and it really broke my heart. This lockdown will be full of distractions, trials & tribulations and hard times, where we can have the excuse to leave the presence of God or very be idle with the distractions of the internet, social media and streaming platforms. But we cannot fall into the booby traps of Satan. There's so much we can do in this pandemic like watching & reading more Christian content, watching church live streams, if any of you go to a church where they don't have a live stream then please watch my Churches very  one on UCKG Live on Youtube or Facebook live at 10 am on Sunday's, we do many other services for more information please contact me on my details below. Let's fast, let's pray for ourselves, the world and our close ones and let's do our devotions. As we are working from home, being Furloughed or not working unfortunately like myself there's more time to serve God. God is really going to see who is really about their faith and whose not. More than ever there's no excuse to slumber like I did in the first lockdown. 

 Until next time guys, thanks for reading my blog if you have any queries about my blogs or want to know more about Christianity

Church Hurt

Church Hurt   For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11 For week’s I didn’t know how to start this blog, as many pushed me to do this blog, because church hurt is a sensitive subject to talk about where many have given up, many are bitter and many like me, not anymore gave up on the church and questioned the Christian community (DISCLAIMER - THIS IS NOT TO EXPOSE ANYONE WHO I FELT ATTACKED BY AS NAMES/ORGANISATIONS WON’T BE MENTIONED THIS IS TO HELP NOT PUT DOWN OR CRITICIZE). So let’s get down to the nitty gritty. I got over my church hurt 5 years ago, and I compare church hurt to one of Killmonger (Yh I’m using a Black Panther analogy, don’t cry, don’t beg about spoilers you’ve had more than a month to watch it!!!! Lool) so back to my point Killmonger is those who’ve gone through church hurt, Killmonger who is Black Panther’s long lost cousin and arch nemesis

Spiritual Priorities

If you ask me "what's the main principle of being a Christian?" I would tell you it's to put God and the things of God FIRST!!!!!!! But this is the thing that I don't see much of Christians in this era, most of us don't value our spiritual priorities or sadly don't have any. What do I mean by spiritual priorities? It's how we prioritize the things of God and how we serve God in our day to day lives. This is what saddens me, slowly and slowly many Christians put God and their faith as the last thing on their list of priorities. There's always an excuse why we didn't go to church, why we didn't pray, why we don't seek or fast and so on and so on, because we put our lives, the things of this world and our busy schedules before God. Okay it doesn't help that we live in the era of technology and demanding work and commitment schedules in life but surely if we serve a great God surely we can make time for him in a 24 hour day???

The Spirit Of Disobedience

"But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people." 2 Timothy 3:1-7   If you asked what is the reason or the biggest sin that takes Christians, people away from God? I would say justification of living in sin and when you're living in sin on PURPOSE you are disobeying God. In the word it says we shouldn't do A to Z but in in today times where even many Christian authorities disobey the ways of God. This is why there is many sorry to say many lost, weak Christians in the world. Okay we all have different spiritual journeys we all take time and move in differe
