Abiding in the Lord Jesus by Pastor (Mrs) Abiola Adegbesan

Abiding in the Lord Jesus by Pastor (Mrs) Abiola Adegbesan

John 15:1-4

To abide means to remain with someone or something all time, all day.

Abiding in God is being in the presence in God always; being in a steady relationship with God.

Abiding in God is not just coming to church on Sunday; it is a steady relationship with God.

Ministering: Pastor Ochei

Reading Psalm 18

What does moving forward to the next level imply?

It means to enlarge/grow in your career, business, anointing, academics, etc.

Reading 1 Samuel 16: 1 - 13

Something attracted God into the family of Jesse.

What will attract God to your family? Is it your goodness, humility, righteousness, diligence, your passion?

God never created a deficit. Everyone is special.

At an early age, David craved for God to be his shepherd. Psalm 23.

Ministering: Pastor Olaitan Owolabi

Bible Reading: Genesis 14

Matthew 16:19

And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. (KJV)

Mark 4:11

And he said unto them, unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all [these] things are done in parables :( KJV)

3 John 1:2

Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. (KJV)

The University of Ignorance

Message Title: The University of Ignorance
-
Ministering: Dr. D. K. Olukoya

First Reading
Hosea 4

There are Seven Major Universities.

1. University of Bondage. Many people are unconsciously in bondage.
2. University of Fear.
3. University of Confusion. Confusion of gender.
4. University of Sexual Perversion. Homosexuality, bestiality, sex, etc.
5. University of Greed.  Lack of contemptment.
6. University of Pride.
7. University of Ignorance.

Jesus said: Know the truth and the truth shall set you free.

Hosea 4:6
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. (KJV)

Isaiah 5:13
Therefore my people are gone into captivity, because [they have] no knowledge: and their honourable men [are] famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst. (KJV)

A man had a dream, in the dream he was in a church and there was a funeral service. He joined in the singing with the congregation, and then suddenly he thought, who died? He looked at the pamphlet and realised that he was the one. Immediately, he started shouting that he is not dead.

A real child of God should rehearse his/her dream with God and claim the good and reject the bad.

Experimentation is ignorance. Your degree of ignorance will determine how much the enemy will defraud you.

Education cannot remove ignorance; however, knowledge will always triumph over ignorance.

Ignorance is not bliss, it is not peace; Ignorance is poverty, devastation, root and stem of evil.

Discussion is an exchange of knowledge while argument is exchange of ignorance.

Ignorance is like alcohol. Nothing limits intelligence as ignorance.

Ignorance is the parent of fear.

The most terrible triplets in the world: Ignorance, Power and Pride.

If the beard signifies intelligence, then the goat will be the most intelligent. Big mouth and small brains makes the greatest noise.

Our prayers must be tailored according to what we see. We need knowledge to be able to tailor our prayers.

Psalm 5:3
My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct [my prayer] unto thee, and will look up. (KJV)

Learn how to prayer: start in the morning, start from little timings like 10 minutes before graduating to 1 hour. Read the bible with absolute concentration and meditations.

When we study the bible: what do I learn, what sins should I confess based on this bible passage, what prayers can I derive from this bible study?

Powers assigned to use me as a sacrifice die, in Jesus name.

The mystery why people perform sacrifice is the because of the blood.

Memorising God's word is very important in getting closer to God. Continues review of bible verses inputs them permanently in the dream. We respond to demonic challenges in our dream/reality using the word of God.

Nothing is worse than practicing ignorance.

O God, arise and revive my soul, in the name Of Jesus!

My Father, My Father, My Father, give me personal Pentecost in the name of Jesus!

Quote of the day

“A strong, positive self-image is the best possible preparation for success.” ― Joyce Brothers

Be Thankful, Be Content, Be Rich

"A crust eaten in peace is better than a banquet partaken in anxiety." ~ Aesop

In just 13 words, Aesop captures within this quote the power of contentment and so much more than that. But who will hear the message through all of the seasonal noise?

As we Americans take pause to observe Thanksgiving, the hustle and bustle of the annual holiday often has us swallowing the feast of contentment without even tasting it. Rather than slowing down and peacefully enjoying the crust of simplicity, we feel it necessary to anxiously partake in a banquet of complexity.

The Differences Between Entrepreneurship And Self-Employment

I got intrigued by this powerful article 'Difference between Entrepreneurship and Self-employment; by Adeyemi Olumide. Enjoy!

The differences between ENTREPRENEURSHIP and SELF-EMPLOYMENT

A lot of times we do hear or read about the benefits of being self employed/entrepreneur. In fact, this seems to be the best concept to wealth. But not for once have I ever knew that there is a difference between self-employment and entrepreneurship not until I started reading business articles and books, listening to great business consultants - the likes of Fela Durotoye, Kunle Soriyan, Brain Tracey (these are my most favorites and role model) and so on. Then I sat down thinking every night, am I an entrepreneur or self-employed?

Fire Up Your Creativity

Matthew 25:13-30, Gen 6:8, Matt 3:8, James 2:18

 

Men and brethren, there is no creation without the act of creativity. No man can rise above the level of his imagination to be a creator. When you imagine what you desire, you will possess what you imagine. Therefore, the ability of making the simple awesomely simple is creativity. You are fired up in creativity when you become a doer of your creative thinking. In the Parable of the talent in Matthew 25:13-30, talent is the element of money. It is indeed unfortunate that the term “talent” means something very different today from what our Lord meant when He told this parable. The talent was the largest measurement of money in those days. Since a talent was actually a measurement of weight, it did not have a constant value. A talent of gold, for example, would be worth a whole lot more than a talent of bronze. While commentators differ somewhat over the approximate value of a talent in today’s economy, all would agree that it was a large amount of money. Some say that it was the equivalent to 20 years’ wages for a common labourer. We must remember, then, that a talent is a measure of money; it is not a reference to abilities. The talents were distributed on the basis of ability, not as the bestowing of ability. “And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey” Matthew 25:15

Inspiration: What are you?

Inspiration: What are you?

Are you a winner, are you willing to chase your dreams, have you allowed the challenges of life to hold you down?

Life can be challenging; we encounter difficulty here and there, oppositions, limitations and setbacks in life. Yes, you are not alone in this challenging world. Sometimes, we find ourselves in positions we never envisaged that we are; we wish to turn things around but we keep hitting roadblocks.

In this post, we will look at the Parable of the Eagle by James Aggrey. We will analyse it and give example of how it is applicable to life.

Integrating Public Utilities with Private Generators

Integrating Public Utilities with Private Generators

On-Grid Connection of Private Generators

From my previous posts Challenges to Solar Power Solution in Nigeria, The Solar Power Solution and Electricity Industry in Nigeria, I have written about the challenges and solutions to Electricity Business in Nigeria; however, there is still an aspect that I am yet to write about.

Currently, all private generation of electricity is for private consumption in Nigeria. While running our private generators for homes and businesses, there are times when these generators are not capable of supplying all our energy needs and other times; these generators generate excess power for our consumption. All the excess power generated is usually wasted while the generators serve their lifetimes. Companies that possess high capacity generators can actually feed-in the excess power generated by them to the local Distribution Company and earn money or energy credits. Also, when private generators cannot generate enough power, it will augment with the power from the Distribution Company.

Challenges to Solar Power Solution in Nigeria

How can we make this Solar Power solution possible in Nigeria?

Where can the everyday Nigerian get the money for Solar Power generation?

The first thing about a solution is accepting it as a solution. I have gone thru a quiz from friends on how I can recoup my money if I install it for consumer. However, my goal is not to install for a consumer but to install for very Nigerian and African at large.

Ideas rule the world.

Grid Electricity for Homes

Being a Nigerian or residing in Nigeria can be very tough. If you have experienced Nigeria then you should be aware that Electricity is a very difficult commodity to come by and you must know that getting ten hours of electricity in Nigeria everyday is nearly impossible. Furthermore, the electricity bills are coming in every month with fixed and usage charges; and with the advent of privatization we will be expecting increment as well.
