DEAD MAN

There are ways to which a man can die.we have the physical death,eternal death and the spiritual death.A dead man is such who cannot carry on the daily activities,he is that who is lifeless, whose spirit is separated from the soul and body.A dead man cannot talk,he is oblivious of things around,he is totally empty and separated from the world.These above is what happens when a man dies physically.
Spiritual death is of another realm, and this is what I will be dwelling on.A dead man spiritually is that which is dead in the things of the spirit. In the book of Genesis chapter 2,we were made to see how Adam and Eve kept in the garden of Eden were commanded not to eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil lest they die(genesis 2:17).The death here, is not the physical death but a spiritual death.A spiritual death alienates one from his maker.Our God is known to be a Spirit being and whosoever is dead in the spirit cannot walk with the Father uprightly.Spiritual death comes with a lot of implications which includes disassociating one from his maker and also having impacts on our daily lives.
An individual can die spiritually by being disobedient to the will of God as seen in the case of our first parents Adam and Eve which led them to being out of the Garden which the Lord kept them, and this in turn led to a great curse and suffering upon their lives that even till date has impact on humanity.When a man dies spiritually, he is like a walking dead such that his outward life suffers for his spiritual inability because there is no how we will be active in our spiritual lives and our physical lives would not blossom in all ramifications. 
In conclusion,all men shall taste death(physical death) as this is inevitable but it will not be desirable if a man dies spiritually already when he is on earth as this will obviously lead to eternal death.

PRAYER POINT:Father,I come before the throne of grace to seek that wherever i have put myself to death spiritually as a result of my disobedience,You revive me and make me a living soul in you henceforth.AMEN

FUEL IT UP!!!

 When I was in primary school I was part of the girls guide. we usually go for weekend camping in any agreed location and I remember that whenever we were at camp, we always have the camp fire at night and everyone will be dancing around it. Whenever the fire goes down, we will put leaves and some other petrochemical substances to enable it burn well. Going through the books of Mathew 25, the story of the 10 virgins ignited a spark in me and I realized instantly that to keep anything burning, we need substances to fuel it up just as we did at the camp whenever the camp fire goes down. Also, most of us have generators in our various homes and I can imagine how much we would feel helpless when we cannot get fuel to power our generators especially when we have a very interesting show coming up or a football match and the electricity distribution company decided to keep the light off. Brethren, reading through Mathew 25: 1-13, we would have a better understanding of what it means to fu...

The Price of Destiny

                              In General terms, the price attached to a product or service is the value of such product or service. This explains why priority is placed on some products or services than the other. The fluctuation in exchange rate of different countries to another gives a deeper understanding of the value attached to different country's currencies. The economists say the price of a commodity confers value on such commodity. A person with a thousand dollar undoubtedly has more purchasing power than another with a thousand naira.  Speaking of what the price of destiny means, we can say it is the value of destiny, the sacrifice needed to pay before attaining a glorious destiny.When I mean sacrifice this is not some sort of ritual but what we have to let go or put in place to attain our glorious destinies because as children of God, we all are entitled to glorious destinies as this is His will fo...

WORSHIP THE CREATOR NOT THE CREATION

                                      The Bible records in the books of Genesis the account of the creation. In the very first verse of the first chapter, it says "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth". This is an automatic revelation that God is the Creator of all creations. We can simply say he is the brain behind every creation and invention in the entire universe. This is also supported by the Book of John chapter 1 which revealed God created everything in the world by His word and this same word was God Himself. What a marvel! Also, the book reveals that it was this same word that gave life to everything that was created, and this life was the light of men which means before His predominance there was darkness all over.  One thing that baffles me is that God made man the head of His creation, why do men after knowing this truth decide to worship the creations mo...
