*THE CURRENT LUKEWARMNESS*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"I know all the things you do, that you are neither hot nor cold. I wish that you were one or the other! But since you are like lukewarm water, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth!."* (Revelation 3:15-16 (NLT))
_Bible Insight:_
The current lukewarmness in many assemblies will not survive the scrutiny of Gen-Z. Real fire, no fluke, is the only thing that will bring these ones to their knees. Spirituality that cannot be gainsaid, mocked, or scorned - that which is fascinating, confounds and dumbfounds scepticism with overwhelming evidences both in word and deed. And by God, we shall serve this and more to this generation and the next. Amen!
Whenever I see a video of a church's choir trending because of the 'marlian vibes' and 'leg works', I'm sure to read comments like 'I need to attend this church', 'na this kain church I wan dey attend now', etc.
The approach now is to create a Jesus version of the entertainment in the world. Now, that's where we get it wrong - there is no Jesus version. He calls us to something totally different, new, and out of this world. This is why it takes the conviction of the Spirit to convert the hearts of men; not a religious adaptation of worldliness. Only truth sets free!
The people we need to keep appealing to in our churches with 'worldly vibes' haven't really been set free and transformed. If you're set free, your taste will change. I'm telling you!
_MEDITATION:_
*"Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;"* (2 Timothy 4:2-3 (KJV))

*PREACHING THE GOSPEL*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law."* (Matthew 10:34-35 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
Someone: Can You Preach the Gospel without sounding like you're against anyone or anything?
Me: That wouldn't be the gospel.
As a preacher of the gospel, I'm against satan
I'm against his messengers
I'm against all false ideologies
I'm against everything Christ is against
I'm in a warfare, not at the cinema.
To preach the gospel well, I must magnify Christ above all, while taking a clear stand against what He stands against, always. I am not seeking an escape route from persecution. Check the bible well, every persecuted preacher preached against men and their idols. Don't take my word for it.
_MEDITATION:_
*"Oh, my brothers and sisters in Christ, if sinners will be damned, at least let them leap to hell over our bodies; and if they will perish, let them perish with our arms about their knees, imploring them to stay, and not madly to destroy themselves. If hell must be filled, at least let it be filled in the teeth of our exertions, and let not one go there unwarned and unprayed for."* ~ Charles Spurgeon

*STOP LIVING IN FEAR*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows."* (Matthew 10:29-31 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
If they know you are getting married, they will make sure it is not successful so you keep quiet...
If they know you are planning to travel out, your plane will crash, so you get there before letting them know...
If they know you are pregnant, the will suck it out, so you give birth before you let them know...
If they know you are about to venture into a profitable business, they will stop it, so you start it first before they get to know...
Who are these people that have such powers to stop a wedding but cannot scatter marriage; powerful enough to crash your plane but cannot make them deport you? So evil they can suck out the pregnancy but cannot touch the baby when born? They can stop you from starting a business but cannot collapse it?
STOP LIVING IN CRINGING SERVITUDE TO SATAN AND THOSE YIELDED TO HIM! There are other reasons to keep such details of your life - being conservative, or just prefer that things mature first, etc, but the fear of 'village people' should not be one of them! Yes, I'm talking to you wearing 'all power belongs to Jesus' hand band. Know thy God well! It's lack of devotion, knowing your place in Christ, that makes believers live in such fears. Jesus is Lord over all!
_MEDITATION:_
*"Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power"* (Colossians 2:8-10 (KJV))

*Random Thoughts & Truths*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."*
_Bible Insight:_
The material prosperity of the righteous man who's passionate about the gospel upsets satan because it will fund the cause of Christ on the earth. While not all believers will be materially wealthy, there will be those privileged to have these world's riches, not because they have some special faith or pray more than others. Some aren't even rich at the moment but will come into opportunities in the nearest future that will enable them sponsor God's mission on the earth. Such must discern wealth rightly, else they'll live like the rich in the world. For us, it is not first about eating and drinking and merrying and buying up the earth; it's about funding gospel missions. Other things are secondary!
There are preachers who speak against long sermons because they don't really have much to say. After some one or two verses, stories, iriri aiye, testimonies and some prophetic prayers for the next level, they have to quickly leave the stage. It's the reason you listen to such men for years and the only thing you can remember is 'God will do your own too', or 'Your story is about to change'. And indeed, your story must change: Look for a bible studying and ministry equipping church! Your life must change!
Let me say this. Truth is, it is not every good deed that will be rewarded in this life. In fact, people can repay you evil for good. Not every good person will be applauded or recognised. Some will be scorned and mocked for their righteous ways. Ultimately, we are to do good because it's just right to do so! Those who do good so they can be rewarded by men eventually become weary of doing good when people don't value them. The main reward for doing good in this life is the positive impact and effect it has on others and the glory it brings to God. Let that satisfy you.
_MEDITATION:_
*"The gospel is the only news you can't just spread without the power of the Spirit of God. You can know all the facts yet be unable to convince a single soul. The Apostles had all the facts but Jesus asked them to wait to be endued with power. It is the Spirit that empowers to witness! Don't forget this."*

*"The Media & Your Choice"*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things."* (Philippians 4:8 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
Evidently, the media is heavily saturated with all kinds of frivolous, distracting, immoral and sensual stuff and this has led many down the road of perversion and depravity. Sometimes, one is tempted to cancel the entire media, especially social media, but when we think more deeply, we see that the real problem is with the choices people are making. The same Internet and media is full of edifying materials. Let me start with spiritual growth. The first time I read some well detailed materials on the Christian faith, I found the materials online. I even registered for a free correspondence bible course! There are YouTube channels dedicated to explaining the bible, FB walls and pages devoted to the same, and many others.
What about personal development? People are getting Google & Coursera certifications freely as they learn new skills. Many programs are out there today to be accessed freely - thousands of courses. Mind shifting, life altering courses capable of boosting your earning power and increasing your employability. YouTube is like a university for skill acquisitions.
Same media.
But all some feed on are the dark and nasty contents? All that some get drunk on are skits and comedies? Fake news? Dragging here and there? That's all you burn your data on while someone else is learning and improving and getting better in life. Some people cannot tell the story of their life's transformation without talking about the opportunities the media has afforded them, yet some cannot talk about their setbacks and misfortunes without talking about the negative impact of the media.
Same media.
Thing is, the media just like life itself, will offer you GOOD and EVIL; LIFE and DEATH. But it's up to you to make the right choice. Before you blame the social media, ask yourself, who were the people you were hanging out with before FB and Twitter happened? What were the things you spent time with? Were you really particular about self development or you were just loose and frivolous? Chances are that you simply found more of the type of people or things you engaged with offline when you joined these platforms.
_MEDITATION:_
*"The media is here to serve you whatever appeals to you. If you fix your choice, the media will become your advantage, not your undoing."*
