STAYING IN HIM

STAYING IN HIM!!!

To stay in something is to remain in the thing. Staying in something is being steadfast. To be steadfast is when something is fixed, steady and unchanging. Staying in something is firmly loyal, constant and unswerving. The HIM in context is the Vine. JESUS is the Vine, we are the branches. When a branch is detached from the Vine, it dies gradually. When a branch is detached form the Vine, it fades away. When a branch is detached from the Vine, it becomes unfruitful. When a branch is detached from the Vine it withers. All these occur because the Vine supplies nutrients to the branch. All these occur because without the Vine, the branch can’t produce fruit. It is paramount a man stays in HIM. Staying in the Vine should be of utmost priority to a man. John 15 vs. 4-5: Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself; except it abide in the Vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the Vine, ye are the branches. He that abideth in me, and I in him same bringeth forth much fruit; for without me ye  can do nothing. Without the Vine (JESUS) we can do nothing. Because it’s the Vine that strengthens. Philippians 4 vs. 13: I can do all things through CHRIST which strengthen  me.  A man needs to steadfast in the Vine, so he can be fruitful, multiply and subdue the earth. A man needs to stay in HIM and obey his command so all his requests can be granted. John 15 vs. 7: If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. A man needs to stay in HIM so he wouldn’t wither and be casted  into the fire. John 15 vs. 6: if a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as  a branch and is withered; and me gather them and cast them into fire and they burned. A man needs to stay in HIM so he can produce bountiful harvest. A man needs to stay in HIM so he can bring great glory to the Father. John 15 vs. 8: Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit so shall ye be my disciples. Matthew 4 vs. 16: Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father which is in heaven. A man that bears good fruit and reap bountifully abides in Him. Start this week by asking GOD for the grace to stay in Him. When you stay in Him that is when He can stay in you. Kindly, share with others. It is well with us…

AN OUTCAST

AN OUTCAST An outcast is one that has been excluded from a society or system. He is labeled a beggar. He is an outsider. An outcast is a person that lacks care. An outcast is neglected and overlooked. He is demoralized. He is wounded in heart. He is labeled whom no one cares. He is one that has lost hope. He is one who is frustrated and dejected. He is one who is always deep in thoughts and sorrowful. He is one who lives like a foreigner in his own land. He is one who is distressed. He is one who gets dispossessed of his possessions. He is one who is perplexed. He is one who is troubled on every side. He is one who is despair. He is afraid of tomorrow. CHRIST came that we might have a restored hope. He came to bare that burden of ours. He came to give us that expected end. He came that we might have peace. He came that we might be healed . Isaiah 53 vs. 5: But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him, and w...

HE THAT COVERS

HE THAT COVERS To cover is to hide and to conceal. A man cannot be wiser than his Maker or Creator. GOD is our Maker; He molded us and formed us into what we are. He is the Potter, we are the clay. Jeremiah 18 vs. 6: O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? Says the LORD. Behold, as the clay is in the Potter’s hand, so are you in my hand O house of Israel. GOD sees all and His foolishness is wiser than man’s strength. 1 Corinthians 1 vs. 25: Because the foolishness of GOD is wiser than men, and the weakness of GOD is stronger than men. A man that covers his sins prospers not; but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy. Proverbs 28 vs. 13: Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper, but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy. Cain was a tiller of the ground; Abel was his brother and was a keeper of sheep. Cain brought fruits of the soil as an offering to GOD, Abel also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat; which the...

RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY

RETAINING YOUR INTEGRITY Integrity is a word which means steadfast adherence to a strict moral or ethical code. It also means the quality or condition of being complete and pure. It could also mean honesty, uprightness, purity, sincerity, decency, virtuous and wholeness. To retain is to keep in possession and maintain something. Many a time people find it difficult retaining their integrity. It takes determination to stand on your integrity. Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. GOD is a lover of men of integrity. Daniel 1 vs. 8-9: But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat, nor with the wine which he drank; therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuch that he might not defile himself. Now GOD had brought Daniel into favor and tender love wi...
