BE FRUITFUL!
"Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion...that moveth upon the earth" Genesis 1:28. My friend, God's purpose for giving man life is contained here in these words. Do you have a vision, dream, and purpose in your life? The poorest man in the world is the man without a dream. And the most frustrated man in the world is the man with a dream never become reality. No matter how poor or rich we are, whether we are born in the bush village of an underdeveloped nation or in the middle of a marble floored city, God has planted seeds of destiny and purpose in our life. Brother, despise not the humble beginning. When you pray you ask for a harvest- God answers with a seed. Let me put it this way- If you ask for an Oak tree, He will answer you with a Acorn. You have to understand that God's answer may not look like your request. Because God understands the power of the seed. But the tree is in the seed. If you obey God, something small God has given is the source of abundance of blessings! Hey, God's answers may not look like what you ask for but you have to have faith to believe that the answer is in THE SMALL PACKAGE. No job will land on your lap unless you go and apply. No matter how anointed you are, God will not brush your teeth! TADA. Get up, work with what God already has given you. It's the source of your blessings! Y'all Hear me! yeah!

FALSELY ACCUSED!!
" Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake". Matthew 5:11. My friend, at some point we will all face them in our Christian life. Can you imagine Bible characters lived in today's environment? What will they face? "Breaking News" and Headlines would have sounded like this: "Pastor Paul gone to Jail" or "Pastor Jesus found with Mary Magdalene" or "Illegal Brewery found in Cana" etc..When you are used by God, everybody has an opinion. They will say "Unidentified sources say". People who can't run their own stuff- all of a sudden they become experts. Isn't it that funny, people who has messed up life knows what to do with your life. Brother, learn to live with it. If you are not guilty, don't worry about it. Bible teaches us "Don't be shocked by fiery trials". What do you think fire is- not warm or convenient. Take the heat and keep on ticking. DON'T RUN YOUR LIFE AND YOUR YOUR MINISTRY WITH PEOPLE'S OPINION! YOU WON"T GET ANYWHERE! Did you hear?

KILL THE SPIDER!!
"And Jesus answering saith unto them, HAVE FAITH IN GOD....and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall BELIEVE that those things which HE saith shall come to pass.." Mark 11:22-23. My friend, to me faith is the fuel that runs my life engine. I am talking about complete, absolute, uncompromising trust in God. It is a FAITH that knows my successes in life are not because of some great ability of my own, but my help comes from the LORD. Few years ago my watch quit running and I took it to a repair man. After examining it, he said, "The main Spring is broken" and that's why it quit running and ticking. With the main spring broken, time had gone off and left that watch. It couldn't stay up with a moving and ticking world. Hey, now you know what is your problem, right? Your main spring- your FAITH is broken. That's why you lost your energy and trust. Maaan, Get that faith, wind your spring, and then you can move along with God to your destiny. He will take you to your promise land at the right time. Did you hear that, buddy!!!

IS YOUR FAITH BROKEN?
"Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian". Acts: 26:28. When I read this portion for my meditation, God put this phrase in my mind. "TO BE OR NOT TO BE". Sounds like a movie title, isn't it? Agrippa said unto Paul, "Almost thou persuadest me". Well, almost sweet is unsavory; almost hot is lukewarm; almost Christian is like Micah, who thought himself religious enough because he had gotten a priest into his house; almost a Christian is like Ananias, who brought a part left a part behind; almost Christian is like Eli's sons, who took more than their share of sacrifices; like the fig tree which deceived Christ with leaves, like the virgins with lamps without oil". Hey, 2012 is behind us. Forever! Somethings God gives often, but He gives time and our life only once. Let's decide now "TO BE OR NOT TO BE" a Christian...a Christian.... a Christian..A CHRISTIAN... CAN WE????

STRAIGHT PATHS
"And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame he turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed". Hebrews 12:13. My friend, realize the fact that you are the only Bible that some soul will ever read. You are the sinners Gospel. Don't allow the lost to say "Why should I join the church when So- and so, who is the member of the church, does the same things that I do?". As we journey through life our footsteps carve a path over which some lost soul will travel. You are the news paper they are reading. I will never forget the testimony of a man who had been married to a Christian woman for thirty five years before he was baptized. He said, "Had it not been for that good woman who lived the life before me day by day, I would not be a Christian even now, I am one because of her". My friend, make straight paths for your feet, for the lame are watching you! Watching you...watching you.. You are under a radar of your children too!!!! Nobody regrets if they live right! OK!!!

YOU WANT TO BE A NEW MAN?
"And the Spirit of the Lord will come upon thee, and thou shalt prophesy with them, and shalt be turned into another man" 1 Samuel 10:6. Another man? Interesting, isn't it? Saul was chosen to be Israel's first king. Coming from the least of all the families of the tribe of Benjamin now he is responsible for leading God's people. "Wherefore then speakest thou so to me?" he asked the prophet. "Thou shalt be turned into another man", came the answer. ANOTHER MAN. Challenging thought, right? Have you ever wished you were someone else? Another family? Envied another's spiritual strength? look? Position? Wealth? Want to be another person? For Saul, it involved a delicate heart operation from God. Bible says, "God gave him another heart"! 1 Samuel 10:9. My friend, for us the requirement is no less. Without a new heart, the new man is impossible. Transformation must precede reformation, and this Christ has promised to all who believe. It's cost you nothing, but ask God for forgiveness of your sin, and believe Jesus died for your sin on the cross of Calvary, accept and receive Him as your LORD AND SAVIOR. Immediately, at that moment, you will be ANOTHER MAN with new thinking, vision, purpose, and new life. Maan, DON'T PROCRASTINATE! This operation is free and has eternal significance, Y'ALL HEAR ME!!
