God Is With You (Emmanuel)

-

As I went through my daily devotional, I came across this topic and was truly blessed so I thought it wise to share with you. The lesson was about the three Hebrew boys (Shadrach Meshach and Abednego) who were thrown into the fire for their faith in God. While they were in the fire, they saw another person who was not among those thrown into the fire. His presents alone rendered the fire impotent. The fire could not burn them. He did not say anything to them nor introduce himself to them but his presence alone brought comfort and encouragement to them. His presence brought protection. Doubtlessly, He was Jesus, the son of God.

There are some problems in life that looks as if you are passing through fire. Sometimes you are even afraid that you might not come out of them. But don’t be afraid. If you are truly born again, even when God seem to be silent, He is still there with you. No weapon formed against you shall prosper. Are you walking through a fiery trial today? If so, you are not alone. God is with you. Take courage! The trial you find yourself today is only a raw material for God to work out your miracle. When He brings you out, you will know Him better, trust Him more and have a testimony. Praise God!

From Hopelessness To Testimonies

Life is full of so many hopeless conditions. There are lots of people who are today in seemly hopeless situations. Hopelessness in getting married. hopelessness in getting a job. Hopelessness in completing a project. Hopelessness in a relationship. Hopelessness all around.  There are some problems in life that looks as if you are passing through fire. Sometimes you are even afraid that you might not come out of them.  Don't contemplate suicide. Don't throw in the towel. I've got good news for you. No matter the challenge you are facing, there is still hope!  My wife shared a story of a lady in her village, who had a seemingly hopeless situation. As a child she took ill and her parents took her to a native doctor who gave her some herbs. Unfortunately, the herbs destroyed her organs. She was taken to the hospital. After examining her, the doctor discovered that her womb was badly affected and the only way to save her life was to remove her womb. When she grew up, she w

The Power Of Love

For any family to stick together, love is a very important ingredient. Love is what holds the family together. In times of trouble and difficulty, love prevails.  In any family where there is love; peace, harmony and happiness is usually enjoyed. Some people think that money can bring happiness in a home. In as much as money is very important, it can't buy happiness. It can buy beautiful houses but not a happy home. It can buy food but not appetite. It can buy good cars but not a happy home. Money can buy latest electronic gadgets but not a happy home. I've seen real wealthy families get divorced. Money wasn't the issue there. They were not happy in the marriage so they thought; the best bet is to break up. Some years ago, I heard about a wealthy man whose wife slept with their gardener. Such things happen every day all around the world. Many marriages today are ending up in divorce and children are running away from home mainly because they are not happy at ho

Down But Not Out!

Once in a while, we all get knocked down in one area of our life or the other. Our struggle in life is such that some times we win, while other times we lose. There are times we are down in our health, finance, spirituality, job, marriage, family, emotion, relationships, business, e.t.c. It is not our being knocked down that is really the problem but our attitude when we are down. There are people who become hopeless, frustrated, depressed and afraid to try to get up again, when they are knocked down.  Your being knocked down does not mean that you are finished. It does not mean that you are a failure. It is not the end of the road. It only means that you are not perfect. It only means that you are not there yet. The devil is a liar! I have good news for you. "You can rise again!” The Bible says, "For the righteous man may fall seven times and rise again"(Proverbs 24:32). I don't know the area of your life where you've been knocked down. It might be in y
