Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world." Thinking Point: Our attitude towards others confirms where we stand with God. Today being the last day of the month of April, is a proof of God's mercy at work in our lives. The strength, blessing and mercies of God has been our sustenance, may His name alone be praised forevermore in Jesus name, Amen. As we conclude on our teaching about our topic "Following Jesus" our focus today says, "Response of Men". What are people saying about our lifestyle? What they see in our lives determines the conclusion of where we belong. When Jesus was done feeding...

Thinking Point: Whatever you offer God with thanks returns as a bountiful harvest. This morning, your littleness is blessed, your smallness becomes greatness, you will become a blessing to the world around you in Jesus' mighty name, Amen. When we surrender to God what we have, He returns it multiple times. When we appreciate Him for the little we have, He multiplies it. Inability to release what's in our hand to God is the main reason for lack and want. When we allow Him to take over what's ours He will never return it the same, that...

Whatever seems not to be enough in your life and my life, my God is making provision beyond expectations in Jesus' Mighty name, amen. Our God is a provider, our sustainer and sufficiency. He made ways and provisions for His children in the time of needs and He will not stop in doing it. Jesus, our Lord, fed more than 5,000 men with women and children with five loaves of barley and two small fishes. They were satisfied without anyone...

Likewise, what belongs to others in our care, God will give us the courage to release them in Jesus' mighty name, Amen. Beloved, our focus today will be more directed to us personally. The lesson for today is from Jesus' Disciples, they were the link between Jesus and the multitude. They were avenues by which Jesus reached out to the crowd. They were to receive fro...

Thinking Point: Don't ignore your discouragers, get them involved as cheerleaders. This new week, we will testify, many will jubilate and congratulate us because God is visiting our lives in Jesus name, Amen. Gratitude over little things, we said, yields multiplication. Have you thank God for those benefits you look down on? Those help you commonise? Say, Thank You Jesus for every little and magnificent help I have received, I am most grateful. This morning, we shall learn another principle from Jesus' lifestyle. Jesus was informed that a lad had five loave...

AND JESUS TOOK THE LOAVES; AND WHEN HE HAD GIVEN THANKS, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would." Thinking Point: Thanking God for little or small provision is asking God for multiplication. Today, all our past effort shall pay off and our labour will be rewarded in Jesus' mighty name, Amen.  Being grateful is being thankful for God's blessings. Grumbling is a sign of ingratitude. Tagging provision 'Small' is a sign of ingratitude or lack of appreciation. If you can't thank God for little things you won't grow to show gratitude for bigger things. When you tagged provision "too small...

A vi...

Thinking Points: Don't be limited by negative minded people, move forward. A wonderful day ahead of us in Jesus name, Amen. In continuation of our lesson from the Book of John chapter 6, Jesus was privileged to receive a negative response from those he trusted that should know better. His response wasn't an answer but a discouragement to think further. He said to Jesus,  "Two hundredth pennyworth of bre...

Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." BIBLE READING: John 6:6 "6. And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do." Thinking Point: Jesus asks questions, we also need to ask questions before acting. Today, I pray with you, at that moment of confusion, discouragement, disappointment and silence in our life, my God will show up with testimonies in Jesus' mighty name, Amen. Following Jesus, believing in His power and having faith that he can do all things isn't a waste of time. Serving Jesus with our time, resources, energy and strength can't be in vain because God is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him, Hebrews 11:6. So, in the time of confusion, rejection, neglect, God knows what to do, He knows how to handle the situation we are in....
