THE APOSTOLIC CHURCH NIGERIA, OJUWOYE ASS. LAGOS

#ajournalOFaJESUSgirl #_theCRUSHING_crush. Please before you crucify me or give answer to this dilemma, kindly read the post to the end. But what is a girl to do? The first problem of society is that we deny that some things are going on... That heavily built guy on my street with muscles that make you want a hug that music leader in church, whenever he sings, all you hear in your head is him.. You cant see God. That classmate, coursemate, cute, calm and so masculine it makes you blush from your stomach lining to your cheeks..each time he smiles at you.. That crush that wön't just leave your head. Yes i'm single right now, but I've been married before. I know most of you will be shocked to hear this. The marriage didn't last long before my husband died... But during that short period of marriage, I had a crush on another man. He was ruddy, cute and so powerful! But what I loved most about him was his voice.. Each time he sang the songs he wr...

Have a strong knowledge of scripture is very important for us as christians. Below are questions and statements seeking for our opinions as we grow in the cadre of faith: Confrontations in Witnessing:  Jesus said we should expect persecution, but that doesn't always mean beatings and prison. How should we react when persecution is just confrontations when we're witnessing? Evangelism is a Joint Effort : Evangelism isn't solitary work. It requires many believers, obeying God as He leads them in seemingly small and insignificant tasks. "Whatever is true...":   It is good to expose false-teaching. But there are better ways to spend our time than condemning every specific error like some theological whack-a-mole. Focus on what is true. Sermonizing:   The early church established sermons as a major way for more educated believers to teach younger Christ-followers. Sermonizing well takes hard work and help from the Holy Spirit. Discipleship Looks Different...

          Growth is a progressive increase in size of an organism. Growth is defined as a gradual development in maturity, age, size, weight or height. An example of growth is a wild teenaged girl becoming much calmer in her late twenties.            Spiritual growth is the process of becoming more and more like Jesus Christ. When we place our faith in Jesus, the Holy Spirit begins the process of making us more like Him, conforming us to His image. Spiritual growth is perhaps best described in 2 Peter 1:3-8, which tells us that by God's power we have “everything we need” to live lives of godliness, which is the goal of spiritual growth. Notice that what we need comes “through our knowledge of Him,” which is the key to obtaining everything we need. Our knowledge of Him comes from the Word, given to us for our edification and growth.         ...

“You are the light of the world – like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden.  No one lights a lamp (candle) and then puts it under a basket.  Instead, a lamp is placed on a stand, where it gives light to everyone in the house, in the same way let your good deeds (light) shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly father.  (Mathew 5: 14-16). F rom the inception, Light was designed to make positive impact in life. It is designed as value carrier. This was established in the creation story as recorded in Genesis chapter 1 verses 1-3. “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light .” (KJV) The entrance of light brings in shout of jubilation, solution, joy and good life. This explained the situation when you were...

           God as a self-sufficient one is able to grant to His children more than what is requested from him. “God gives than our request”.  God is described as one who is able to do exceedingly, abundantly above all that we ask or think. As OMNISCIENT (ALL KNOWING) GOD, He did not only know your heart but also what you are thinking and even what you did not think or imagine. Our heart as human is too narrow to comprehend the whole wisdom and knowledge of God i.e. you cannot know all what God is able to do in your life because He is unlimited by space and power. God blessings to His people are overflowing ones. We only ask for what we want from God in prayers, but God will give what we need, because our wants may sometimes not be our needs, but He alone knows our needs. BIBLICAL INSTANCES OF THE EXCEEDING WORKS OF GOD Jacob (Israel)Gen 45:28 : Jacob as an old man, was in sorrow for many days because of the sudden death of his beloved ...
