GOD'S ZEAL

GOD’S ZEAL
Zeal is the tireless devotion for a person, cause or ideal and determination in its furtherance. It means diligent, enthusiasm, powerful interest. GOD’s powerful interest to his creation is that they don’t perish. We men are creation of GOD. GOD has a powerful interest in men; but most men don’t. Despite the wickedness of men, despite men’s deceitful and desperate heart, GOD still has a powerful interest in him. Psalm 8 vs. 4: What is man, that thou art mindful of him? And the son of man, that thou visitest him? David said when I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; what is man, that thou art mindful of him? Jeremiah 17 vs. 9: The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked; who can know it? GOD made man have dominion over the works of His hand, and put all things under man’s feet, because he has a powerful interest in men. GOD’s powerful interest made him send us his only begotten son JESUS, to die for the sins and debt of men. John 3 vs. 16: For GOD so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. GOD sent his Son that through JESUS, men might have life again. Through Him, He showed men GOD’s plan of salvation. He made men acceptable to GOD, he made men pure and holy and He gave himself to purchase our salvation. This is only what a powerful interest can do. The bible said if anyone is going to boast, let him boast only of what the Lord has done. GOD did this, because of His powerful interest in men.

         Isaiah 9 vs. 6-7: For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon His shoulder, and His name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty GOD, The Everlasting Father, and The Prince of Peace. Of the increase of His government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon His kingdom to order it; and to establish it with judgment and with justice from hereafter even forever. The zeal of the Lord of Host will perform this. The zeal of the Lord of Host brought forth his son JESUS. It will be good if we men also have such powerful interest in our Maker. It will be good we come back to GOD, having powerful interest in Him again. GOD’s love to men is immeasurable. It will be good men love him likewise. He said, if you love me, keep my commandments. Men let the enthusiasm about GOD return again, let the zeal to obey his will and commandment return again. Let the hunger and thirst for righteousness return again. Let the zeal to serve him in spirit and truth return again. We can’t have two masters. We can’t serve GOD and also serve mammon; I beseech you, serve GOD. It is well with us….

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...
