INTIMACY: AWAKENING CALL TO A FRESH START WITH GOD, BETH-EL! Genesis 35:1.

On November 27, 2016September 6, 2018 By Pst.ZinoIn Encouragment, Family, fresh start, grace, Holiness, Hope, Love, new beginning, new life, new page, Redemption, restoration, right living, Uncategorized2 Comments

A new beginning, a new page, a new chapter is very much needed in our lives. There are countless stories in the Bible that tell us about people that had a fresh start with God. Ruth, Jabez, Paul the Apostle and lots more. But the story of Jacob in Genesis surpass them all.

God called Himself: God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. There is something so fascinating about the story of Jacob, it is the story of New Beginning, a New Page, a New Chapter. In Genesis 25:22, Rebekah the wife of Isaac was pregnant with twins (Esau and Jacob). They both struggled in the womb so Rebekah decided to inquire from God about the fate of her twins. God told her: two great nations, the younger shall be great and the eldest shall serve the youngest. Now in Genesis 27 bros, Jacob stole the blessing of his elder bro Esau. Esau got angry and decided to kill his brother after the days of mourning for their father Isaac was over. Genesis 27:41. Jacob fled and went to stay with his maternal relations (Laban). Now we have arrived at our main topic. Genesis 28:11-22.

When Jacob was on the run from his brother, he fled into a city known as Luz. There the Sun Set, he couldn’t continue his journey anymore. He used stones to make his pillow. There that night he had a strange but power dream. On waking up he said,

“God is in this place—truly. And I didn’t even know it!”

20 years after this event Jacob was still struggling with life, served 14 years to marry two sisters, had to trick his father-in-law live stocks. 2o years earlier, he had a dream about God and a ladder to Heaven. When Jacob had issues with Esau, Esau was just one man. But in Genesis 32 when Jacob was trying to reconcile with his past using his own strength, Esau now has 400 men with him capable of bearing sword (men of war). Jacob dreamt about God 20 years ago, but he didn’t really encounter God.

“There comes a time when you hear about God; and a time when you really Encounter (see) Him” Job 42:5.

At this stage of Jacob’s life, he knew his only chance of survival was to encounter that God he dreamt about 20 years ago. In Genesis 32:24-31, his life changed completely and a new name of given to him called Israel. In verse 32 the Sun rose upon Him. Jacob struggled for 20 years without making ends meet. At this time it was a new page, he made peace with his brother and things started to fall in place. Yet with all these changes, an Intimate relationship with God was missing. God wanted Jacob to dwell in a different place from where Jacob was.

“Your Location in life determines the Allocation you will receive in life.”

Success in every ramification in life has a lot to do with correct positioning. There is no blessing an elephant will get on top of a tree, neither will a bird be blessed inside the river.

Location matters so much to God, that was why in Genesis 35 God spoke to Jacob again saying:

God spoke to Jacob: “Go back to Bethel. Stay there and build an altar to the God who revealed himself to you when you were running for your life from your brother Esau.” Genesis 35:1

Now, this is Intimacy with God, He wants a closer walk and relationship with us.

What is Bethel? Back To Bethel Bethel is the place where you had a divine encounter with God. Bethel is the covenant place. The place where you make a deal between you and God. Bethel is the place of U-turn, the decision making place. Bethel is the crossroad between success and failure. Bethel is the place of restoration. Bethel is a place where dreams are fulfilled. Bethel is the promise land. Bethel is Zion.

There are three points in order to identify and help us examine our walk with God and value our intimate relationship with God.

Awakening Call to your First Love: God is first and wants to occupy only the first position in our lives. The same attraction and attention we give to new things and our new fascinating friends, God is seeking the same from us. Forget whatever transpired between you and your past, it doesn’t matter to God. He wants to Re-write your life history and destiny. He wants to give us a fresh start. All we need to do is to go back to Him. The Mess can be the most beautiful Message, and the sad and disgusting story will save many people from and give them hope for a second chance.

I’ve wiped the slate of all your wrongdoings.

There’s nothing left of your sins.

Come back to me, come back.

I’ve redeemed you.” Isaiah 44:22.

Balance and weigh your life now and then, how it used to be for those at are in the faith or were once in the faith? The way you prayed, read your Bible, evangelized. Return back to God, His hands are wide open, He is waiting for us. He wants to restore us back to the Good Old Days

Assuring Commitment with a Fresh Courage: A fresh start with the assurance of great success. Remember Ruth, Jabez? The asked for a fresh start, they made the U-turn. Rehab the prostitute became the great-grandmother of our Saviour Jesus Christ because she made a fresh start with the courage of a great finish. There is power in a fresh start, there are lots of opportunity and promises for a new beginning. The Lord Himself will plant our feet where is best for us. Remember Bro Paul, his beginning was rough but his end was amazing Philippians 3:4-16. That is the power of a fresh start. Intimacy with God guarantees these promises.

Abiding Consecration with God the Great Covenanter: God is a covenant keeping God. He said to Jacob:

“Arise Go back to Bethel. Stay there and build an altar to the God who revealed himself to you when you were running for your life from your brother Esau.” Genesis 35:1

Make that place of Bethel permanent, abide there, that is your correct location so you can get the better allocation that suits you. 20 years ago he dreamt about God, over 20 years later he decided to keep his own part of the covenant he made with God. It is never God’s fault; He keeps His own part of the deal. Many years later when King Jeroboam raised an altar there to worship an idol, God immediately sent a young prophet from Judah to prophesy against that altar.

God will fight for whatever you keep in His care.

Finally, Beloved let Go Back to Bethel and let us dwell there. That is the place of our rest. The place we will find rest in every situation in life. God is opening a new page for us, but we must first lay aside our garment that is stained with sin. Take off that filthy garment, practice Holiness within and without. Walk in the spirit, kill the flesh. Only the Blood of Jesus can clean us and make us whole. God wants us to be a Vessel of Honour unto Himself where; “Purity > Lust and Holiness becomes a Life Style.”

Let us examine ourselves and take away everything that is contending with our personal relationship with God (You know what they are!).

Abba loves you more than you can imagine, He wants a close fellowship with us. Stay Pure; Live Holy & Have Fellowship with the Trinity. Draw near to God and He Will Draw near to you.

God Richly Bless You❤️

TO KEEP YOU FROM THE STRANGE WOMAN

On July 31, 2016April 14, 2019 By Pst.ZinoIn connection, Encouragment, fresh start, grace, Holiness, Hope, marriage, new life, new page, Redemption, restoration, right living, right people, righteousness, Uncategorized, Wisdom2 Comments

The strange woman, what is strange about this woman? Why do men really need deliverance from this particular type of woman? Proverbs 2:16-19; 5:3-23; 6:23-35; 7:1-27. The first episode we discussed the evil man TO DELIVER HER FROM THE WAY OF THE EVIL MAN. Proverbs 2:12-15, there we did analyze certain issues about the strange man. All for the sole reason to enlighten our sisters. In this episode, we are helping ourselves. When you carefully study the book of Proverbs and to be precise from chapter one to chapter seven, the Bible dedicated a huge percentage to talk about the strange woman and very few percentages to the evil man. Why is this woman strange? She is strange because everything about her is a mystery. It is impossible to understand her without deep discernment. No one really can understand this woman. To be able to beat her at her game you need divine intervention from heaven. Paul the apostle said in Ephesians 1:18a “The eyes of your understanding being enlightened” It means what we see most times is not the right explanation we give. May I state that this post is not referring to anyone, but it is to address the evil spirit of the end time that is making men of valor err.

To understand the strange woman let us study for a very short time, the life of the writer of most of the chapters in Proverbs. Solomon was the son of the great king David. King David fought many battles and won a lot of territories. In fact, Solomon reign was simple, Solomon inherited greatness and he actually took greatness to another level by becoming the greatest and wisest king ever.

This is the only king that dedicated a temple to God and God Himself came down and His glory filled the temple that the priest could not enter into the temple fire came down and consumed the burnt offerings God appeared to him at night in Gibeon and granted him everything a man could ever want 1Kings 3.

But Solomon inherited something from his father King David that most people will not even consider being anything serious. I keep saying it with no apology reserved,

“what happened to your father/mother will repeat itself in your life if you don’t pray your way and break loose from that.”

David had issues with women, but Solomon took it to a higher level with just only 700 wives and 300 concubines. With this great visitation and encounters with God, what really went wrong in the life of Solomon? This question narrows down to one simple answer. The Strange Woman!

1Kings 11:1-5

But king Solomon loved many strange women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh, women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites; Of the nations concerning which the Lord said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall not go into them, neither shall they come in unto you: for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods: Solomon clave unto these in love. And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines: and his wives turned away his heart. For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of David his father.

Who is a Strange Woman? Defining the strange woman is a very difficult task, but those who have been affected by their activities can tell you, it was a Bitter Experience! The strange woman is that person that enters your life and everything changes from better to worst instead of best. The strange woman is the destiny killer specifically placed by the enemy to alter the destinies of great men. The strange woman interferes in your walk with God. The strange woman upholds sin and justifies it.

The strange woman in the Valley of Sorek Valley Of Sorek. The strange woman is the fragmentary of a soul through sex THE FRAGMENTED SOUL. “SEX!”

Here lies the bitter truth; the strange woman has entered the church with a strange spirit. The devil understands that Christian brothers are becoming alerted and hardly fall prey to their trap. They now come inside the house of God to trap brothers that lack the Spirit of Discernment! Yes, the Bible says “Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee: Proverbs 2:1”

They camouflage it is difficult to detect them and totally impossible to detect them by your own strength. You can only save yourself when God is involved in your life. The modern-day church has lost its original vision and purpose, so it is rare to see a church with the sound doctrine. We have now substituted sound doctrine with disco messages, rap messages, comedy sections, long music sections, and a very very short prayer and message time. The sound doctrine that should enable our brothers to live a holy and righteous life is now watered down. That is why we have a slogan like “Come as You Are and Remain as You Want.” All these effects boil down to a people that are Powerless both Spiritually and Doctrine wise.

Characteristics of the Strange Woman

Her Physical Appearance: The appearance of the strange woman can be deceiving but it is very evident. A leopard cannot change his spots. She is dressed in a particularly enticing way. Sex appeal attire, to make you lust and fall for her traps. Her looks, steps, and body language are all attractive, but her mission is to waste great lives. The strange woman flatters with her words Proverbs 2:16, 7:5. She’s a smooth talker, she can talk you into anything. She’s a covenant violator proverbs 2:17. She’s loud, stubborn, never in one place, dresses in the attire of a harlot, seductive.

May I state that people dress in accordance with the season and this has nothing to do with them. But remember MODESTY IS KEY & YOU WILL BE ADDRESSED THE WAY YOU ARE DRESSED!!! What I am discussing here is these particular classes of people that dress only to get the attention of men. The Jezebel spirit.

Her Physical Path: Now brothers, you are not justified if you are caught in the trap of the strange woman because they have a known path. You should never be found in their territory because you will definitely fall prey to their snare. Psalm 1:1-6. What are the paths (ways) of the strange woman? Some brothers know very well that this particular lady is dressing in a seductive way, giving some tips and a strange feeling and they decide to go visit alone! What are they expecting, Bible study section?

Proverbs 5:5 says “Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold of death.” Proverbs 1-end explains her path. The writer saw among the simple a Young Man void of Understanding. The young man was passing through her street, going the way of her house. These days many people blame the devil for their own actions.

“If you don’t want to eat the forbidden fruit, then stay away from the forbidden tree.” It is that simple! The strange woman will tell you exciting and sweet words Proverbs 7:31-21. She will navigate through the path of death for a sole reason to trap a man.

Her Spiritual Damnation: Her end is bitter, Proverbs 7:22-27; 2:18-19; 5:4-5. The sole purpose of the strange woman is to leave bitterness and sorrow behind her path, where there is a permanent regret.

The spiritual consequences finally lead to the physical one. Already the spiritual effects are countless, they meet in the fire for God and leave you empty. They are sent on a mission to de-anoint you from grace to grass, palace to prison and from greatness to emptiness leading to irreversible death in every area of your life.

The Physical Consequences: The strange woman brings a cascade of events. One thing leads to another when one is involved with the strange woman. The final consequences are evident and no more hidden death in every aspect of life.

I knew one man, he could carry different women and maltreat his wife and kids. But something strange happened to this man, he is a civil servant and worked for over thirty years. During those years of labor, he fell into the hands of one woman, bought land and built a house in her name. Immediately after this ordeal, the strange woman chased him out. As we are talking now he is in the streets of Lagos jumping from one slum to another. He gave his life to a stranger and she successfully destroyed him.

The lesson from the strange woman is so vast, the consequences are broad. But there are hope “promises of a new beginning” go back to God and reason with Him “come let us reason together”

Do not allow the pleasures you think you are enjoying now to destroy God’s plan and purpose for your life. Now is the appointed time, now is the hour of salvation. Take away the garment of sin, get wisdom, it is the principal things. In all you have, attain understanding. It is not about jumping and vibrating, the Bible says “watch and pray!” We are in the end times brothers please Take away your Garments that are stained with sin and be washed in the Blood of the Lamb. Remember James 1:13-16, the cascade starts from the heart through Lust. Then when lust gives birth to Sin and sin finally delivers a bouncing fatal Death! Death might not be physical, but of what use is a man when his destiny and ability of a man is at a zero level.

There is no accidental sin, no sudden fall. Address the issue of sin now before it addresses you in public. Handle your filthiness now before it becomes public. There is a big difference between how God sees you and how you appear before Him. Take off your garment stained with sin before it becomes too late.

The way of the strange woman is bitter, you can not go in her path and come back normal. Samson ended his great calling because of the strange woman. Don’t fire into your bosom and expect not to get burned, you cannot be innocent if you fall into the trap of the strange woman. If you fall victim is because you lack understanding, if you go into her you are killing your own self.

Brothers Fornication is a killer! “It will keep you longer than you want to stay and make you pay more than you ever bargained for.”

Proverbs 6:23 For the commandment is a lamp, and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life: To live a successful life, you must love correction. Some might say, well others are living a worldly life and are still making it. Remember Before every man there lies a wide and pleasant road that seems right but ends in death. Proverbs 14:12. You might be enjoying now, but suddenly there is an irreversible and in correctable destruction to your life. Proverbs 7:23. Don’t let your heart decline in the ways of the strange woman. Go not astray in the path of the strange woman. Don’t spend your energy on women or your efforts on those who destroy kings Proverbs 31:3.

He that has an ear let him hear, Choose Life and shall Live, Follow Purity and Holiness and you will Survive.

TO DELIVER HER FROM THE WAY OF THE EVIL MAN. Proverbs 2:12-15

On April 24, 2016April 14, 2019 By Pst.ZinoIn connection, Encouragment, Family, fresh start, grace, Heaven, Holiness, Hope, Love, marriage, new beginning, new life, new page, Redemption, restoration, right living, right people, righteousness, Uncategorized, Wisdom5 Comments

Proverbs 2:12-15

12 To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things;

13 Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness;

14 Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked;

15 Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths:

The evil man? Sounds strange right? Are there really evil people out there that we must avoid? A Resounding YES! To unravel this question further, let us look at a very short history of the life of the writer. They say experience is the best teacher, of course, I totally agree. It is the best teacher for the Unwise.

King Solomon was a king, a great one that started very well. In fact, one of the few people recorded in the Bible that provoked fire from heaven. He built a temple for God in Jerusalem, when he was dedicating the temple; the Glory of God filled the whole temple and the priest could not enter into the temple to minister. This is to show how well he started, but the stranger called Lust made him err a lot. Thank God for Restoration and most importantly a Repenting heart, He later traced his steps back to God. Solomon wrote the book of Proverbs out of an experience. He was the only man at that time that could give the advice about the evil man and the strange woman; because he had married just only 700 wives and 300 concubines🙈👀. After living this kind of life to the maximum he wrote the book of Proverbs.

When we talk about the evil man, what are we talking about? In the context of this post, we are for the ladies (men don’t worry next post is about the strange woman hahaha there are lots to talk about, but let us encourage our sisters and save them from the snare of the evil man so they don’t fall prey.)

Now to our beautiful sisters, what is the way of an evil man and why is it so important that Solomon had to talk about it?

The evil man is no stranger to destruction, the evil man is that unfriendly friend, the evil man is a destiny terminator. The evil man is that person that stops at nothing to bring you down. The evil man is that person that drags you into that cleverly conceal sin that you are indulging in, thinking no one will find out. The evil man is the star killer. The evil man is that in secret chapters in the book of your life that you are constantly battling with, that secret battle you can’t tell anybody about. The evil man is that man that rejoices in the evil news but turns very cold when something good is happening in the life of a sister. The evil man leaves the way of righteousness to walk in the way of darkness. The evil man is never upright, very corny, never straightforward.

As a sister, the evil man is that man that; prevents you from constantly attending church, disrupt your Bible study time and quiet time, block your communication with heaven, refuses to attend fellowship with you but will gladly drive you to a party. The evil man is that person you entered into a relationship with and your spiritual life dropped from good to bad and bad to worst.

The sad truth about the evil man is they are now inside the church. There is something strange about the evil man these days, this is why it is very difficult for our sisters to detect them. The evil man has the spirit of a chameleon, they change and can easily adapt to any situation. We will discuss the only way we can overcome the evil man subsequently.

The Bible says in Proverbs 3:13 “Happy is a man who finds wisdom and who acquires understanding.” wisdom is key; without it, we are actually living like someone who is physically blind. Proverbs 4:7 “Wisdom is of utmost importance, therefore get wisdom, and with all your effort work to acquire understanding.” When you read further to the book of Hosea 4:6a; the same Bible is lamenting that; “My people were cut off because they lacked wisdom.”

As a sister with great destiny and future ahead of you, to become successful you will need to avoid the evil in every ramification of life. As Christians Heaven is our Outmost Goal and a Successful Marriage is very Essential to achieving this goal. Who we get married to also influences our journey towards Heaven, and also the kind of Family we will raise. The devil understands these principles and knows when the Home is on Fire the Society is also on Fire. And most importantly, the Church at large. For this sole reason, his rage against the church of God is so much, and he has cleverly entered the church as an angel of light. 2 Corinthians 11:14.

A vast majority of ladies have boarded and are sailing in a particular Ship heading to Tarshish. For you to understand Tarshish in this context, you need to first understand the story of Prophet Jonah, one of the twelve minor Prophets of the Bible. When God sent him to Nineveh to preach to them, he refused and boarded a ship to Tarshish. Many sisters have entered what Nigerians call “One Chance Bus” to destruction all because they encountered the evil man. The evil man is the Ship that leads to a place of destruction (Tarshish), the place where the presence of God will not go with you. Tarshish is the place where people lose their divine purpose, the stronghold, and city of the evil man. It’s a place where lives and destinies are destroyed.

Many sisters missed their divine purpose here on earth all because, they Met who they were supposed to Miss, and Missed who they were supposed to Meet. “THE PEOPLE YOU SHOULD MEET AND THE PEOPLE YOU MUST MISS”

Ladies who were meant to be great people are stranded in the marketplace of life, solely because the met the evil man on his way to Tarshish and he succeeded in convincing them. Telling them to join his ship sailing to Nineveh, when in reality is truly sailing to Tarshish😭.

Discernment is key unfortunately, many sisters lack this gift. They cannot tell, nor differentiate a person that possesses the Spirit of God from that of the devil. Christians pray for the gift of Tongues, Prophesies and lots more, but neglecting the basic of them all which is Discernments. Proverbs 2: 11 says “Discretion (Discernment) shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee:🙌🏽” The lack and inability to discern has made a lot of sisters to fall into the traps of the evil man.

There are specific people personally ordained by the devil to waste the lives of sisters with a great destiny.”THE FRAGMENTED SOUL. “SEX!” & THE VALLEY OF SOREK. Judges 16:4” A large number of this people uses gifts to blind the eyes of our sisters, knowingly or unknowingly. Of course, sisters fall prey because of greed to #SadTruth. People want material blessings but fail to understand the basic principles of Jesus on how to get wealth, “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Matthew 6:33” they are easily blinded by the things of this world and re showered by the things of the devil. The gifts you receive from the so-called brother in the church might actually be a cleverly conceal trap to cage them. Virtues are stolen away because of this trick. The devil is clever because he understands that, many sisters are now aware of his devices. He has now transformed into an angel of light. 2 Corinthians 11:14. In doing this he has sent his agents into the church of God, they are hard to detect making it difficult for people to really see their true motives. As a woman, if you cannot discern you will fall prey for every ship going to Tarshish. Like I said previously, Tarshish is the place where God is not leading you to.

In this dispensation where we belong, we cannot defeat the devil by simply relying on our own strength. The bible says “for by strength shall no man prevail. 1 Sam 2:9b.” It is not by power neither is it by might, only by the Spirit of God. As a lady, you need to pray earnestly without a season to overcome and escape from the trap of the evil man. Your only way is to surrender your life to God, only then He will guide you and keep you from the evil man.

As a sister with great destiny ahead of you, always remember that; “because a door has opened wide for you to do effective work, although many people are opposing you. 1 Corinthians 16:9.” The devil will stop at nothing to bring you down; he will send different (SHIP) counterfeits your way all leading to Tarshish all in the name of, RELATIONSHIP, FRIENDSHIP, PARTNERSHIP, Fellowship, COURTSHIP, SCHOLARSHIP and many other Ship leading to Tarshish. He will make you leave Zion for Babylon, he will cause you to forget the laws of God and His commandments. “Because the command is a lamp and the Law a light, rebukes that discipline is a way of life. Proverbs 6:23” Ladies please guild your heart with all diligence because out of it are the issues of life Proverbs 4:23. Don’t just Pray only, Watch and Pray, with Diligence. Don’t be fooled or blinded by the works of men, Try the Spirit, Test the Fruits. A good tree should bear good fruits. Do not fall prey to the sweet and enticing words of men to lead you astray.

For those in any of the Ship leading to Tarshish, you know them better yourself. Pray earnestly to God so He would intervene and trust me it will be very hard to do His will. You might be hurt and shattered in the process but;

“A Broken Heart is Better than A Broken or Destroyed Destiny!”

People mostly have good intentions, but because the devil is after Godly relationships, he tries to corrupt our brothers and possess them with the spirit of the evil. The results in many Christian relationships ending up like that of the world. The solution is constant prayer and meditation in the things of God, having a mentor who is filled with the Spirit of God to guide you and your partner in the ways of God. You that are still single, you need to pray and let God lead you Himself. Leave no unguarded place, no weaknesses in every area, take every virtue, every grace and fortify the whole.

Finally, Beautiful when you put all your Cares and Worries in His hands, He will put His Peace in your Hearts and Guild you through Life’s Processes.

With Love, Pst Zino.

DO YOU LOVE ME MORE THAN THESE? JOHN 21:15-17

On March 28, 2016September 6, 2018 By Pst.ZinoIn Encouragment, grace, Heaven, Holiness, Hope, Love, new beginning, new life, new page, Redemption, restoration, right living, righteousness, Uncategorized, Wisdom2 Comments

It’s Easter period a time in which we celebrate the Death and Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. For us Christian, it is a special time and it does hold a special place in our hearts, having great significance.

The faith and hope we have in God are all because Jesus died for our sins and He has risen from the dead. He led captivity captive, liberated men and gave eternal life to us. This great gift gives us the grace to have a better relationship with God our father.

After the fall of Man we needed a new start and new life, Jesus came to cement that new beginning. Reconciling man back to God.

THE FALL OF MAN & MAN’S RECONCILIATION WITH GOD.

For this reason, we call Jesus

“mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel. Hebrews 12:24”.

And in Ephesians 2:14 “For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;”

“JESUS THE MEDIATOR OF THE NEW COVENANT.” Hebrews 12:24.

On that fateful Good Friday when our Lord Jesus was crucified, it was as if nothing will work. All hope was lost until our Lord Jesus arose from the dead on the resurrection Sunday and showed Himself before them.

The first time was in John 21. Simon Peter the right-hand man of Jesus decided to go fishing since he was a man of high reputation among the disciples. The rest decided to join him. They worked that night and caught nothing. Jesus later appeared to them for the third time, at first they did not recognize him. John the beloved the disciple whom Jesus loved, recognized Him and said unto Peter. “It is the Lord.” John 21:7.

The disciples gathered together to have a wonderful time, and Jesus asked Peter a very simple question. Vs 15-17.

Peter Do You Love Me More Than This???

John 21:15-17

15 So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs.

16 He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep.

17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.

God demonstrated His Love towards us for allowing His only begotten son to die for us John 3:16. This time around God around Jesus gave us the great commission, to spread His love to every corner of the world. This pure and undiluted agape love is spread through the gospel of Christ. John 16:15-18, Matthew 28:16-20.

Do You Love Me More Than This? Jesus asked that question because he wanted the His disciples to see and understand how important the great commission was. Jesus went to the cross; He has played His own part it is now our turn to do the same. Our command is to go into the world and preach the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Peter went fishing and the other disciples joined him, Jesus promised them that He would make them fishers of men and not of fishes.

Jesus asked Peter the same question three times, “Simon Son of Jonah, Loveth Me More Than These? Simon Peter replied and said Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee.

Jesus replied and said, “Feed my Lambs, and the last two answers were Feed my Sheep.”

Jesus needed to be sure of what Peter would do in His absence. If we really understand the message of Easter, then we will spread the good news of the gospel. Jesus was telling His disciples about the great commission. He gave us salvation and He expects us that have known the truth to shine His light to all corners of the world.

Easter is all about love, let us spread the love of Christ abroad. It is a season when the promise of the Holy Spirit and its era was made many years ago.

John 16:7

Nevertheless, I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.

We are in the dispensation of grace. We are saved by grace, not by our works according to Ephesians 2:8-10.

We have the “THE BORN AGAIN EXPERIENCE: Ephesians 2:1-10.” But this experience we have encountered with Jesus should not be for ourselves alone. We must tell of His love and good news to everyone around us. The power of Christianity is Manifested in Jesus and the Hope of Heaven is found in Him. But our comforter is the Gift Jesus left for us. This gift is the person of the Holy Spirit. He gives power to Luke 24:49.

Finally, folks the command of the great commission is our goal and duty, Mark 16:15-18. We only need to believe, because the signs and wonders shall follow us.

WHO SHALL I SEND & WHO WILL GO FOR ME? Isaiah 6:8

On February 21, 2016September 6, 2018 By Pst.ZinoIn connection, Encouragment, Family, fresh start, grace, Heaven, Holiness, Hope, Love, new beginning, new life, new page, Redemption, restoration, right living, right people, righteousness, Uncategorized, Wisdom2 Comments

Isaiah 6:8

Also, I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.

After king Uzziah died, I prophet Isaiah saw God for the first time. The terrible connecting between the Prophet Isaiah and King Uzziah is broken. When the eyes of Isaiah were opened he said in verse 5: Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts.

Like I said in our previous topic (THE PEOPLE YOU SHOULD MEET AND THE PEOPLE YOU MUST MISS), certain people or groups of people should not be in our lives if we really want to become who God intends us to be.

If God was looking for a man to send in the days of Isaiah, imagine what is happening in our days now. The question is, was Isaiah not a prophet of God? Were there no other prophets during that time who could still stand in the gap? God needed a middleman.

Ezekiel 22:30. And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none. God said: “But I Found None!”

It doesn’t mean these prophets or servant of God were great sinner or fake. Though some were, the good ones were not just up to the standard God was looking for.

We will look at these four key points they are systematically ordered.

After King Uzziah died prophet Isaiah saw God. This is strange but if you study the chronicles of the Kings you will understand who King Uzziah really was and what he did. Isaiah was a prophet in his times, king Uzziah was doing the job of a prophet/priest. Many people are occupying the wrong offices in life, people do things they are not supposed to do.

Success in every ramification is all about correct positioning.

To get God into your boat you must be doing what He endorses. You cannot be a friend of the devil and you expect God to speak and empower you for a great mission Wrong! They view of so many is blocked, like they are working under a closed heave because they operate in the wrong base/place where God will not show up. The spirit of Uzziah is common and until that spirit is terminated in our lives we won’t really be able to achieve what God intends for us.

As soon as the prophet Isaiah saw God, he realized that he was a man with an Unclean Lips Isaiah 6:5. How does the Eye correlate to the Mouth? Why did Isaiah say he’s a man with Unclean Eyes? It is what you see that you are bold enough to speak about.

An angel brought live coal in his hands from the altar, and laid it upon his mouth saying;

Isaiah 6:7

“See, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for.”

The eyes influence the life of a man, what you see all the time becomes a part of you. What you see always have great control over your actions.

Job said; “I made a covenant with my eyes!” Job 31:1.

David said; “Open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in your law.” Psalm 199:18.

Apostle Paul said; “I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people,”

When your sight is correct, your vision and purpose becomes outstanding. You see what God wants you to see, understand your mistakes and errors. This narrows you down to a fulfilled life.

Isaiah heard the voice of the Lord. Do you know why Isaiah could not hear from God all this time? Which with a mouth will he use to answer God? The unclean lips?

If we follow look at it from this perspective, He saw God, He knew He was Unclean, He asked for Forgiveness, An Angel came and Purified his Lips and Atone for his Sins, He could now Hear God.

The final point could only have happened because there was a cascade from verse 1. Which was: See God (Have an Encounter with Him); Understand and Acknowledge your Sins; Be Purged, Purified and made Whole; then finally you will Have the Father Son Relationship with God when you can speak with Him and relate with Him.

Knowing the mind and plans of God for your life comes only when you have this unique relationship with Him.

Finally, dearly beloved of God. Isaiah had an encounter with God, this lead to many beneficial things in his life. All these happened step after step, meaning our God is God of Order and Precision. According to Isaiah 28:10 Precepts must be upon precept. God is looking for a generation that He can be proud of. I so much believe that we can be that people. That man and woman, that boy and that girl that will boldly stand in the Gap.

Before this can happen, we need to put off the old man, take away that garment that us stained with sin. Lay aside every weight and sin that we easily fall into.

Prophet Isaiah realized this, and his life changed and never remained the same. From chapter 6 to chapter 66 (60 chapters later), Isaiah had wonderful stories and beautiful messages of restoration; prophesies for generations to come, He talked about our Savior Jesus Christ. All these event transpired because he had a dealing with God.

We can have this same story; we only need to be available. Let us yield to the call of God, and remember these four steps.

His visitation and power; Acknowledging our mistakes and the repenting heart; His purifying power to purge us and make us whole; Hearing His voice and call; Our resounding Yes and boldly professing Him.

God Bless.

THE PEOPLE YOU SHOULD MEET AND THE PEOPLE YOU MUST MISS

On January 31, 2016September 6, 2018 By Pst.ZinoIn connection, Encouragment, fresh start, grace, Heaven, Holiness, marriage, new beginning, new life, new page, Redemption, restoration, right living, right people, righteousness, Uncategorized, Wisdom4 Comments

Welcome to the new year, if you are reading this post, well I congratulate you, you made it.

The journey of life involves certain rules and regulations to be strictly followed if we want to have good success in all areas of our lives. There are certain people God has ordained for you to meet in life, likewise there are people also you must miss in life in order to attain your God given destiny.

Taking our example from the Bible, we see lots of people who became successful because of the people they met, and those that failed because of the people they met as well.

Joseph was announced to the Pharaoh because he met someone in jail, David survived the trying times of King Saul because he met Jonathan that gave his life in place of his. Samson ended his ministry and life because he met Delilah, Rehoboam the son of King Solomon lost ten kingdoms to Jeroboam because of the friends he met that advised him. Our first Text is a very renowned prophet, one of the greatest among the major prophets.

Isaiah 6:1

“In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord, high and exalted, seated on a throne; and the train of his robe filled the temple.”

The story of Isaiah and King Uzziah is a rare and strange story, to understand this you need to start from the first chapters when you get to the chapter 6, you read the verse 1-8 and meditate on it, there you see the real message of the story.

Uzziah was a king who started well in the beginning, but his later days was not good enough 2 Chronicles 26. Uzziah did start well but the strong man called pride entered into his life. He met the people he was supposed to miss and missed those he should have met. Isaiah was a Prophet in the era of King Uzziah, notice what the Bible says.

“In the year that King Uzziah died, I Isaiah saw the Lord.”

The simple questions are why didn’t Isaiah see God during the reign of King Uzziah? What happened during the time of Uzziah was alive? What event transpired during chapter 1-5?

The answer lies in who you meet and who you miss, this has a great impact on your success and the kind of life you will live.

The connection between Isaiah and King Uzziah was a “Terrible Connection!” Uzziah was the closed Heaven between Isaiah and God, like a blockage between Heaven and Isaiah.

What is a Terrible Connection?

It is a killer at the edge of greatness, a carefully manipulated bond that should never have occurred. It is a wasting bond, a time waster, an emptier. It is planned carefully to obstruct one from achieving their divine goal. A terrible connect is made to waste, empty and render useless an individual. There are countless people who had encounters with the wrong people and wished they did not meet them.

Life is all about who you meet and who you miss, success is all about correct positioning and the right connection.

You came into this world because your parents met each other, either good or bad I leave that for you to decide and judge.

Your purpose in life is to fulfill a destiny, If you Miss Jesus, “Life will be a Shattered Dreams.”

In our journey through life, we will meet certain kinds and groups of people.

You will meet those that will:

Inspire you to greatness.
Will make you great.
Leave you the way they met you.
Impact you positively.
Impact your life negatively.
Those that will De-anoint you.

Uzziah was de-anointing Isaiah, this is a serious matter though overlooked and kept aside. The people we associate with influences the outcome of our lives. Many people have lost their lives, violated in every ramification because the met someone that took them somewhere and connected them somewhere, which triggered tragic event in their lives which could have been avoided assuming they did not meet them.

As Christians don’t just choose people for what hear, assume or see in them. Looks can be deceiving, make sure you know their right standing with God and be sure about it. The right people will propel you to greatness, the wrong people will lead you down the drain.

Finally, dearly beloved and my wonderful youth; Marry the right person so you can achieve your goals. Pray to meet the right one for you, and please pray harder so you miss the wrong person. Watch and Pray with your eyes open. Marriage is deep, and for those with a great destiny, the enemy is working tirelessly to cause them to make the wrong choice.

Abraham, Hannah, Moses, Joshua, Deborah, and others. They married who God intended for them.

“If you want to fulfill destiny then marry the right person.”

You are who you marry because two shall become one! My unmarried fellas, please FLEE FORNICATION; the Bible says Flee, not Preach.

Don’t play with your Destiny on the Altar of Pleasure, you will not get it Back.

Don’t be a prayer warrior at the pillar, like Samson in Judges 16:20-31. Don’t start praying when all is destroyed. Don’t find God when He’s already gone. It will be too late to cry when the Head is Cut-Off.

Pray to God so He reveals to you who really are, this narrows your perspective in life, and lead you to the right person with ease. If God is telling and giving you sign about your association, yield to God and obey Him. Don’t get into what God is not involved in.

Samson met the wrong person and she finished it, Ahab met the devil called Jezebel and she wasted him.

Watch your associations, carefully select your friends, pray hard for your partner, Listen to God and Obey His Word. Doing all these God will Save you from every Terrible Connection.

God Bless.

THAT I MAY KNOW HIM. Phil 3:1-20

On December 6, 2015May 21, 2017 By Pst.ZinoIn Encouragment, fresh start, grace, Heaven, Holiness, Hope, new beginning, new life, new page, Redemption, restoration, right living, righteousness, Wisdom2 Comments

You can be attending church for all your life and still not know Jesus. Your parent might have given birth to you inside the church, baptize you there; you grew up there in the church; later joined the choir and started singing in an Angelic manner; joined the youth ministry, yet you don’t know who the Man of Galilee Is. A preacher once preached for over 20 years and did not know Jesus was.

You might have definitely heard the name Jesus but the power in the Name might not know you.

We need to understand this… Jesus Christ warned us about the danger of professing without faith. Matthew 7:21-23.

Some people claim to know Jesus but deep down in the type of life they live, they do not. Some confess Christ secretly but never profess Him openly.

To confess is very easy, but professing is more of a strong declaration that Jesus is Lord.

Many tale-evangelist and many mega pastors do not mention the name of Jesus anymore… they only call the name of God. Like Seriously!!! Phil 2:5-11. The vs. 9-11 says,

“Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:

That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”

Many people these days say “ I AM NOT A CHRISTIAN; I ONLY HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD” My friend please take a Sit! You cannot have a Relationship with the Father without going through the Son. John 14:6.

“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”

Jesus said He is the only way to the Father, knowing God means having an encounter with Jesus first. If you obey God, it means your know Jesus, this implies you are with fellowship with the father. Having a Relationship with Jesus makes you automatically a Christian. This means you are Christ-Like, of course, we are not perfect, but the bible says,

“ Perfecting Holiness in the Fear of God”

As a Christian though some claim they are not, but you are called a Christian, or you’re a Christian because you’re “Christ-Like” meaning that you do everything in the way and manner Christ did it.

Having a relationship with Christ Jesus is a must priority. In john 15:1-26, Jesus was telling His disciples about associating with Him, which was their only chance of becoming an overcomer.

Many people think theology is all about Jesus. Never! There is no searching of His understanding. Obedience is a must. If we really love God we should gladly do His will.

You have to bring forth the fruits that are associated with Jesus.

You can’t tell me you’re a Christian (though you say you’re), ok agree but please where are your fruits?

Your association with Christ will rob you of a lot of things, freedom from being and acting like the world. That’s the meaning of taking up your cross and following Jesus. Matthew 16:24.

“Then said Jesus unto his disciples, if any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.”

You deny yourself first, take up your cross and follow Christ. Then you will understand Philippians 3:10-11.

“That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;

If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.”

The disciples were first called Christians in Antioch in Syria. The world looked at them and saw Jesus in them, they saw the characteristics of Christ, and they saw the attributes of our Lord Jesus.

They said, “ These are the Followers of Christ.” Acts 11:21.

We need this kind of identity, the world needs to know us and sees only Jesus in us. From the way we act, behave, to the way we speak. Christ must be seen, no double life, no faking it. Jesus Only, “Jesus Ever, Jesus All.”

We need to get back to basis. Galatians 2:20-21 talks about being crucified with Christ… Christ lives in us… the live in which we now live, we live only by faith of the Son of God, who love us and gives Himself for us… this implies we must be bold to talk about Jesus.

Preach Him, Live Him, and be Proud of Him.

When the chief priest and rulers of the people threatened the disciples never to preach Christ again. Instead of staying silent, they prayed for Boldness and Preached Christ even more than ever before. They could do this because they have had an encounter with Jesus. Acts 4.

In John 15:15, Jesus said we are no more servants but friends. Everything He knew about His father, He has made it known to us, He chose us. All this signifies that we carry the Traits and the DNA of God.

Jesus said, “ Greater will we do.” John 14:12.

We will get all these benefits if we associate ourselves with Christ.

Your spiritual leaders and clergymen won’t save you, only Jesus will. We need to know God for ourselves, self-righteousness will fail us.

Remember in the last days, many events will occur. We’re already in the perilous times, people love to serve only themselves. Covetousness is real, people boast in themselves than in the Lord.

We should never have a form of godliness and deny the power thereof.

Let’s come together and put away all these negative attributes and put on the character of Christ which is found in Gal 5:22-26. We need to crucify the flesh with the affections and lust thereof; pick up our cross and follow Jesus.

Finally, 2 Timothy 3:2.

Endure Hardship like a Good Soldier of Christ. Don’t just partake of the benefit, be part of the hardship. Then you will understand your place and purpose in Christ Jesus.

Stay Bless,

3 John 2. Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
