THE MESSAGE AND THE MESSENGER

2 Samuel 18:19 Now Ahimaaz son of Zadok said, "Let me run and take the news to the king that the LORD has vindicated him by delivering him from the hand of his enemies."
2 Samuel 18:20 "You are not the one to take the news today," Joab told him. "You may take the news another time, but you must not do so today, because the king's son is dead."
2 Samuel 18:21 Then Joab said to a Cushite, "Go, tell the king what you have seen." The Cushite bowed down before Joab and ran off.
2 Samuel 18:22 Ahimaaz son of Zadok again said to Joab, "Come what may, please let me run behind the Cushite." But Joab replied, "My son, why do you want to go? You don't have any news that will bring you a reward." 2 Samuel 18:23 He said, "Come what may, I want to run." So Joab said, "Run!" Then Ahimaaz ran by way of the plain and outran the Cushite.
2 Samuel 18:29-30 The king asked, "Is the young man Absalom safe?" Ahimaaz answered, "I saw great confusion just as Joab was about to send the king's servant and me, your servant, but I don't know what it was." The king said, "Stand aside and wait here." So he stepped aside and stood there. It is not all the time you have the news that fits every situation
I have heard of a lot of fight even in the church because he/she is deprived of taking a program or d other
I know of singer that "stop going to church" because she is not allowed to take the lead solo
You must understand that 'today that you are not having a message, it is not important you take it.'
Must you be seen always?
Any message that will have a meaningful impact must be what you have seen
Telling the story of what you were told is not that impact full
Hear the testimony of someone 👉
1 John 1:1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched—this we proclaim concerning the Word of life.
Don't go about telling stories of what you have not seen
Please have a check, do you really have a message for the church tomorrow? Have you really seen what you want to go and sing Or were you told?
Don't you notice that the best you've received so far is people clapping for you after your performance that you called ministering
You can't passionately deliver what you have not seen
"Come what may, please let me run behind the Cushite." But Joab replied, "My son, why do you want to go? You don't have any news that will bring you a reward."
Why will you do what will not give you any reward? Why do you want to go without a message for God's people?
I will advise you to stay behind and patiently wait till you see something for yourself before running,
It will pay you and it will add value to you to see he who is the word of life before you embark on that journey of life
Oh! For those who had gone ahead, don't worry about them because there is going to be a waiting audience to receive the message
It will be disgraceful to arrive without any message
They will have to step aside and wait till you come!
Abinadab and the rest of David's brothers were not with any message for their generation, so they were disqualified to be the king of Israel
They have to step aside and wait till David came from the village.
This is my charge to you, please go and wait (in incubation at the presence of God) to get a message for your anxiously waiting generation, If you will not have to step aside for he who has the message.
Let us pray!
Oh Lord, I know you have a better plan for me, I am awear that you want to use me for my generation, I know that you want to send a message to my world...
Please Lord help me to be patience enough to receive this message, help me to wait under your incubation till I am worthy of been sent. I don't want to run a useless race without any message for my generation, please help me Lord😓🙇

COOKED, BUT NOT DONE!

I boiled a egg sometimes ago, I heated the pot with enough fire, and the water was really boiling. It boiled for some minutes, I went to check and I saw a mark on the egg like it cracked, the white part is showing already. Out of curiosity, I dropped the pot off the fire, removed the egg, dropped it in a cold water, after a while I picked the egg to pill, only for me not to find any cracked part, after pilling, I discovered the egg was not even done ye t. I was starring at this COOKED BUT NOT DONE EGG, then I heard this: There are many "EGGS" out there that are "COOKED" but are not "DONE". There are 'EGGS" that out of pity and because of the mark they thought they had are out of the cooking pot without been cooked, these "Eggs" already had a feeling of how God deals with men, they have been through the fire of the heat in the place of making but are out without been DONE. Why will you be deceived with that little part of making y...

Forgotten Identity

 "In this hot sun, how soon will i get a Keke to take me back to the office? After the stress I am facing here, I still have a lot to catch up with in the office and it's the weekend already, I will have to face the stress on the road again, Kai, this life ehn... " The above words were part of the many things running through my thought, as I was sent on an assignment from my work. Those questions flooded my thoughts at the end of the assignment I was sent to do.  Do you know naturally I shouldn't be bordered with those questions in my thoughts in the first place, the reason being that I was sent on the errand with an office vehicle. A driver drove me on that assignment! Isn't it awkward for me to have such thought?!  Let me tell you the truth, I totally forgot it was an office vehicle that brought me down for that assignment. In fact after I was through with that assignment, I headed towards the gate, I was about moving outside the gate to get keke before I remem...

PRAYERS INITIATED BY FEAR

  PRAYERS INITIATED BY FEAR It is not a new thing to an average human that prayer is a means of fighting spiritual warfare, all religion testify to this. I can testify to it that this world is spiritual and there are lot of battles going on, the one we can see or the invincible ones. There are battles from friends and foes, in the morning, afternoon, evening and night, in the dream, real life experiences. At work, at home, amongst family members, from within the environment and attacks of all sought. Yes, this world is really wicked! I am sure you must have heard if not seen the operations of the wicked ones. However we were enjoyed to intensify our prayers so we can become victorious. It is the survival of the fittest. Christians are not excluded in this, running along churches, mountains taking this issue of spiritual warfare seriously.  Permit me to inform you dear reader that prayer is different from what we grew up to meet, or should I say what we were taught. We grew up...
