Hi all,
I greet you in the might name of the Lord. I am sure that most of you are aware of the political situation in kenya that is dividing the nation along ethinic lines and greed for power. The situation is getting worse every day and we don't know to what extent it will escalate to.Kenya has been one of the most peace ful countries in Africa, but the devil is bad and deceiving, the devil doesn't want to see anything good, but shame be on him (Satan) in all grounds. People are displaced, amputated, and alls sorts of evil acts are taking over the nation. We have many brothers and sisters in christ back in Kenya, and in times like these they need everyone's support in prayer. With that, I am calling upon every one of us to dedicated some time to pray for kenya and all countries that are going through war. Also we need to stand with our brothers and sister who are over here and their families are stuck in the turmoil.
May the Lord bless each one of us as we spare some moments to pray for kenya and other countries in similar conditions

My dear Brethren,this is to apologise in any way i have offended anyone by my comments in this forum.I just wanna tell us that i did not come here for anything else but to learn and discuss the word of God and how we can apply it to life.And in all my comments,thats what i have tried to do amidst my shortcomings,my flesh has manifested severally amidst my quest to present the word of God.My brethren,think about it,you have been living like a slave until you realise that your father left an inheritance for you,it will radically change your life.That is what happened to me,men have taught me principles,i have learnt principles from men,i have been enslaved by the principles of this world which preachers will always trace back to the word of God but they never taught me life.They were teaching me the good part of the tree of good and evil instead of giving me the tree of life.Suddenly,the Lord came on the scene and gave me a taste of the tree of life,it radically ruined my life for eternity,the messages that propagate the tree of knowledge of good and evil disgust me,the thought of such life disgust me,the life itself disgust me,the Lord says it profits nothing and so it naturally disgusts me.The fact that i am living it doesnt mean it is how i am called to live,the writer of hebrew asks us to strive to enter God's rest,and that rest is found in the tree of life.So i came here with such a heart to inspire my fellow youths that the answer is in the living word of God-Jesus Christ the righteous and not in useless obsolete principles being propagated and practiced today.To awaken my fellow youths to wake up to the reality of the word.Many of us have many questions we are afraid to ask because we thinking that it will be a sin to question such things but my heart is that we cast of those things that restrains us and dialogue on the word of God and how we can apply it to our life.I feel like the Lord took a part of the pain he feels for the body of Christ and put it in my heart and you can feel my pain in my writings,not because i am against anyone but because i am mourning for our Lord and the famine of the his word in our generation.Many are deceived but they do not know it and so they are deceiving others,while some are consiously deceived and are consciously deceiving others but we have more of the first than the later.Please this is my heart,do not take whatever i write persoanl please,i beseech you,my heart is bleeding and in pain for those i have offended and hurt by the way i wrote,please forgive me,do not take it personal please.i do not know everything,if i do,i will be in heaven right now and not on earth but my heart is that we explore the living word of God together,throw away our opinions and the traditions and opinions of men because they are useless ,please.Paul says," from now onward,let no man trouble me for i bear on my body the marks of Jesus",may we be able to say this with paul.God bles you all richly.
It is me your brother

I AM CRUCIFIED WITH CHRIST......I AM DEAD.....IT IS NOT I...IT IS JESUS CHRIST
This question came up during a discussion with some brothers in my church, and it's in relation to one of the discussion topics we had last week entitle "Thought Provoking Question" (you can go back to read that). The Bible says in 2 Timothy 1:7 that, God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of Power, of Love and of sound mind. But I do have my fears and I know yours might be different from mine. I am not talking about the fear of thunder storms or the fear that someone might strike you with a stick if you walk alone in the dark. I am talking about the fear to fail in an endeavor. Let me give you an example, one of my biggest fears is the fear to disappoint my family and the kids in my community who look up to me. I am the eldest son, I do have younger brothers who look up to me, and so my family has very high expectations for me. I live with this in my head and so when things become a lil tough I think about the questions; “What if I fail them?” The funny thing is that, it is this same fear the keeps from quitting to holding on tight. Like a song writer said "My fear is my only courage". So my questions is, "Is the fear of failure a good thing or a bad thing?"
I need your perspective. Thanks!
I want to thank God because he heals and restores us! Today my pastor was talking about the baggage we carry around in life whether it is spiritual, relational, or sexual. Maybe we screwed up earlier and we live with guilt and bitterness or unforgiveness. I encourage you to seek healing from God because I know for sure that he is healing me in places i never even thought he would, areas that i have hidded for too long. I praise God for his mercy in our lives and his grace to not only forgive but also restore!
Please brothers and sisters, lets take a minute break from our social struggles and immerse ourselves in praying for people who are struggling with greater burdens than ours (I know we are all battling against something or the other) but lets take a break from ourselves and pray for others.
1.Pray for sinners (for the perishing souls they need Jesus).
2. Pray that the will come to the saving knowledge of Christ.
3. Pray that once saved they will be channels through which others will be saved.
4. Pray that in our day to day lives the live of God -Zoe will be reflected in us and through us people will come to the saving knowledge of Christ.
5. Pray for our leaders that they will hear directly from God and will not lead us astray.
6. Pray for your unsaved family members that through you, they will come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.
I guess we could also check out the prayer points for the year:
