A GOOD SOLDIER OF CHRIST

    A GOOD SOLDIER OF CHRIST
A soldier is a person who is in an army and wear its uniform. He is someone who fight when there is war, CHRIST has an army of soldier and he is the head of the army. He is the general and boss of the army. A good soldier of Christ must pass the test. An ordinary soldier undergoes activities just to be enrolled and enlisted in the army. He goes through a lot of training until he is fit for the army. He is taught a lot of things, before he could be part of the army. Apostle Paul says in 2 Timothy 2 vs 3: Take your share of suffering as a good soldier of Christ; just as I do and as Christ soldier, do not let yourself become tied up in worldly affairs. Let me talk on these, Apostle Paul is a good example of Christ’s soldier, he suffered for Christ just because he preached the gospel; he was imprisoned, yet he still was more willing to suffer if that will bring salvation and eternal glory in Christ JESUS to those GOD has chosen. That is how a good soldier of Christ does, are you one?
     Moreover, a good soldier of Christ do not let himself become tied up in worldly affairs, because he knows he is not of the world; but he is tied up with heavenly and godly affairs, because he knows when he set his affections on things above, that someday he is going to sit him GOD and reign with him. A good soldier follows the lord’s rule for doing his work. Paul made an athlete as an example, he said an athlete follows the rules or he is disqualified and wins no prize. A good soldier follows the rules of the lord and he is fit and qualified to win a prize at the end. A bad soldier is not qualified for the prize and does not follow the rules of the lord. A good soldier works hard like a farmer who get paid well if he raises a large crop. A good farmer cultivates and plant crop working so hard so he could harvest and sell at good prize, when it is time. That is how a good soldier does, he works so hard while on earth, he spreads the gospel to others, follow them up and bring them unto salvation, in turn he receives he receives a crown from the father GOD on the last day for a work well done. Are you a good soldier? Are you fit to be part of Christ’s army? If you are not a good soldier and not fit to be part of Christ’s army then you only need to repent from all your sins and accept Christ as your personal lord and savior.
        Furthermore, work hard so GOD can say to you well done. Be a good workman, one who does not need to be ashamed when GOD examines his work. Know what his word says and means. A good soldier of Christ uses the word of GOD as his weapon and not a gun,the bible said the sword of the spirit is the word of GOD, therefore he must know what the bible says and meant.
                    Finally, as a Christian we are to be a good soldier of Christ. It is compulsory for all Christians to be enrolled in the army of the lord. We are vessels in the hand of GOD and must be useful. Be part of Christ’s army and be a good soldier of CHRIST.

OUR DAYS.

OUR DAYS Greetings to all reading on this platform worldwide. I write on this topic OUR DAYS even as   my twin sister and I are a year older today. Glory be to GOD for a new year and a new day. A song says great is thy faithfulness, Oh LORD my father, morning by morning new mercies we see, all we have needed his hands have provided, Great is thy faithfulness. Truly great is his faithfulness toward all men. Many are not convinced of these, many don’t see something special in GOD’s faithfulness towards them. David said “Then I lay down and slept in peace and woke up safely, for the LORD was watching over me. He GOD never sleeps nor slumber over us, we just find out we sleep and before you know it, you open your eye to a new day. This is the LORD’s doing and it should be marvelous in our sights. We are to see reasons to always appreciate and thank GOD for his goodness, mercies and faithfulness. That you are alive shows He is faithful. The gift of life which is the greatest of...

FREEDOM FREEDOM FREEDOM

FREEDOM FREEDOM FREEDOM Freedom is a state of being able to do what you want without anything stopping you. Galatians 5 vs 1 says: so Christ has made us free, now make sure that you stay free, and don’t get all tied up again in the chains of slavery to jewish laws and ceremonies. Christ’s death on the cross made us free, we are in bondage before, but Christ made us free. We are tied up in chains slavery to sins, but his death made us free. The bible said whosoever the son sets free, is free indeed. We have been set free, and we are free. Many misuse this freedom, many use this freedom to do the wrong things. Many still dwell in sins despite, this freedom. This freedom brings grace, love, purity and faithfulness. The bible said we can’t continue in sins and say grace to abound, GOD forbid. When you are in sin, your freedom becomes captivity again. That is why, you must flee from all appearances of sins. Paul said in Galatians 5 vs 13: For dear brothers, you ...

THE DUTY OF MAN

THE DUTY OF MAN Duty is that which one is morally obligated to do. A husband in a house is responsible for meeting his family’s needs. That is the duty of a husband. A wife is responsible for taking care of the children and also house chores. That is the duty of a wife. A school teacher’s responsibility is to teach the students. That is the teacher’s duty. A student’s responsibility is to go to school, listen to what the teacher teaches and study them. That is the student’s responsibility. Our Creator GOD created everything for a purpose. Every creation has a duty to carry out. Unfortunately, many creations have failed in their duty. When a man doesn’t carry out his duty he is termed a failure. It causes the Creator GOD nothing to replace men with stones when they fail him. I pray may you not fail GOD!                However, there is time for everything. Don’t get excited and get carried away in this world. D...
