ENGAGING THE WORD TO FIND OUT THE TRUTH ABOUT THIS TIME OF LIFE                      A TEACHING BY: ADETAYO BENJAMIN    (SERIES TWO) Let’s see the remaining part of this discussion as recorded in verse 24 to verse 34. Therefore the Lord God says, "O my people in Jerusalem, don't be afraid of the Assyrians when they oppress you just as the Egyptians did long ago. 25   It will not last very long; in a little while my anger against you will end, and then it will rise against them to destroy them."   26   The Lord Almighty will send his angel to slay them in a mighty slaughter like the time when Gideon triumphed over Midian at the rock of Oreb or the time God drowned the Egyptian armies in the sea. 27   On that day God   will end the bondage of his people. He will break the slave-yoke off their necks and destroy it as decreed. 28-29   Look, t...
ENGAGING THE WORD TO FIND OUT  THE TRUTH ABOUT THIS TIME OF LIFE                        A TEACHING BY: ADETAYO BENJAMIN    (SERIES ONE) It’s not a news that so many of us are asking questions like - “ why are all these challenges happening?”, “could it be that we have done something wrong or some persons are trying to take over the economic power?”, “ is the end already here?”, “ are we really going to come out of this state at all?” So once again I want to ask, why are all these things happening? The book of Isaiah chapter 59 verse 15 tells us some something that could have been responsible for these occurrences. Truth is nowhere to be found, and whoever shuns evil becomes a prey. The Lord looked and was displeased that there was no justice. (NIV) Yea, truth faileth; and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey: and the Lord saw it, and it displease...

The topic of FAITHFULNESS

I got the inspiration to talk to us on the topic of FAITHFULNESS . I will like to regard Faithfulness as God's timeless leadership principle. And i believe we must begin from now and afterwards to pray unceasingly that this God's timeless leadership principle - Faithfulness, will take root in our lives and we will by it bear fruit for Him. I love the way Larry J. Michael put it, " Regardless of the measure of recognition that comes our way, be assured that each of us has a specific role to play in God's kingdom work on earth". And I want to say, our influence might not immediately extend as far as reaching millions of people, but it will affect directly those to whom we are responsible as leaders. They, in turn, will influence the lives of others. (Creating trans-generational influence). Only the Lord knows how those humble beginnings within our circle of influence may in time touch untold numbers of people for the cause of the kingdom. The important thing is fo...
               THE DESIGNED PATH   There is a path in the plan of God for every son/daughter HE chooses to father. This path is best describe as the process that makes yesterday raw material today and many days to come costly luster. It’s good we don't lose sight of the personality we are going to become at the end of that pathway. WHY? The reason being that our focus on that personality (JESUS) keeps us going at the point the path looks so much like THE FURNACE OF AFFLICTION. This planned path may sometimes come with pruning /trimming with the intention to take away from us excesses that hinder us from becoming that very God's purposed plan. This process often leaves A LEGIBLE MARK on every son/daughter that passes through it (ISAIAH 48:10.TLB). For the man JOB, he says; thou HE slay me, yet I will trust HIM (JOB 13:15). This man went through THAT path called THE FURNACE OF AFFLICTION, at some points he was confused having waited for a...
