TRUE GREATNESS

By Peace Wobo

How do you define true greatness?  To be honest, true greatness can mean different things to different people with different beliefs and practices. There are so many great people in different fields, careers and endeavours. In football, Messi, C. Rinaldo, Nerman Jr, Modric and some others that time will  not permit me to mention are great football players. Serena Williams is a great Tennis Player, Usain Bolt was a great runner, President of any country is considered to be a great person but is that what true greatness is all about? Is true greatness measured by one's position and achievements? I don't think so. True greatness is not measured by a man's position and physical achievements.

Rather,  True Greatness is an attitude of the heart that sincerely desires to live for God and others. Unlike earthly rulers, Christian leaders are expected to demonstrate true greatness by humbly serving God and His people. True greatness is a virtue that every Christian leader must posses.

M. SALAH SHOWS UP AT A FAN'S HOUSE

Premier League top scorer and Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has turned up at a fan’s house, who injured himself chasing the Egypt international.

The young fan named Louis Fowler and his brother were waiting outside the Melwood training ground for any Liverpool player to show up after training.

Louis then spotted Salah’s car leaving the training ground and started running in pursuit of the winger.

While running, Louis accidentally hit a lamp-post and was knocked out due to the impact of the collision.

Salah then turned his car around and drove to where Louis’ parents live to check if he was okay and to take pictures with him and his brother.

We can draw a lesson from this. Imagine what the visit of a Football star did to a young champ. If only we can be more sensitive to the people around us, there are so many wounded soldiers out there that don't even get a call talk less of visit from other soldiers. Let's show more love and concern to the brethren. Let's show that we truly care.

A BIRD AND A FISH IN LOVE

By Peace Wobo

A bird and a fish can fall in love but the question is, where will they build their home? In the air; where half of the family can hardly survive or in the sea; where the other half can not survive? This is a food for thought with great lesson for everyone. 

Now,  let's relate  this to we humans, people often claim to have fallen in love, they end up marrying the wrong person refusing to heed warnings,  after some years, you begin to ask yourself if they were actually the same couple that claimed to have been so much in love some years ago. This is because a bird and a fish can fall in love but where they will build their home becomes an issue. A fish cannot survive in the air neither can a bird  survive in the sea.  There's no magic about this.

Get our App Now: Peaceable Peace

The choice of a marriage partner is a very serious one and should be taken seriously. A Believer cannot afford to fall in love with an unbeliever because light and darkness has nothing in common. You are to love them by telling them how God loves them that He gave His only begotten Son, pray for them and win them to become disciples but don't love them to want to marry them. Nobody can convert anybody except by the grace of God, so don't tell me you can convert him or you can convert her, if it is not God's will, you will end up ruining your life just as the fish will end up dead outside water or the bird will end up dead in the sea after been married. Don't ever marry someone that doesn't share the same faith as you. Except in specific or rare cases were God clearly instructs a believer to marry an unbeliever because He wants to reveal His glory. Ordinarily, a believer should never think of marrying an unbeliever by claiming to be in love. You no fit carry ooo, I know what am saying. 

So, you must know that it is not just about falling in love but it is about falling in love with the right person and in line with God's will and standard. 

I hope I've been a blessing to you today?  Remain Blessed!

LIVELY BUT DEAD

By Peace Wobo

Beloved, let's carefully consider this warning to the Church in Sardis in Revelation 3:1-3 "Write this to Sardis, to the Angel of the church. The One holding the Seven Spirits of God in one hand, a firm grip on the Seven Stars with the other, speaks: "I see right through your work. You have a reputation for vigor and zest, but you're dead, stone dead.
2 "Up on your feet! Take a deep breath! Maybe there's life in you yet. But I wouldn't know it by looking at your busywork; nothing of God's work has been completed. Your condition is desperate.
3 "Think of the gift you once had in your hands, the Message you heard with your ears - grasp it again and turn back to God. "If you pull the covers back over your head and sleep on, oblivious to God, I'll return when you least expect it, break into your life like a thief in the night".

The church in Sardis hath a name that they were lively, that's how KJV puts it while Message says, calls it reputation for vigor and zest,  to them their church was lively and alive, I believe good messages but not sound and good music even healing and miracles happened there and every member of the church prided in their church like what is happening among the body of Christ today but before God they were dead. Before their eyes and before men they were a lively church but dead before God. What an error! Church membership is not a guarantee to heaven. A lively church is not necessarily by crowd, instruments and music. A lively church is known by their works of righteousness, sound messages that doesn't dilute the word of God to suit the hearers in anyway, where the truth is being preached and practiced.

It is sad to note that some Christians are like the Sardis church, they feel alive because they still sing and miracles happen, when they pray it seems nobody prays better than them, they still heal the sick and cast out demons in the name of the LORD but before God they are dead, dead in godly character, dead in righteousness, dead in personal devotion, dead in hearing from the LORD, dead in morals, workers of iniquity, immorality and unrighteousness personified.  Watch therefore, if you fall into this category, repent and pray and strengthen that which remains before they die.

And if you think you are standing; 

"Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall" (1 Corin.10:12).

May we not be lively before men but dead before God in Jesus name, Amen

KEY VERSES IN MATTHEW

By Peace Wobo

Hello readers, today I bring you verses from the book of Matthew that every believer should be able to quote off hand. Seriously, if you are born again, you should be able to quote at least 90% of these few verses without opening your Bible.

Matthew 5:1-2 The Beatitudes (You must know this)
[1] And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:
[2] And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
[3] Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
[4] Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
[5] Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
[6] Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
[7] Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
[8] Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
[9] Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
[10] Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
[11] Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
[12] Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
13-16
[13] Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
[14] Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
[15] Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
[16] Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
[22] But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.
[48] Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

[12] And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

[13] And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

[14] For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:

[15] But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses".

Matthew 7:1 "Judge not, that ye be not judged".

Matthew 7:7-8

[7]a Ask and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:

Matthew 11:28-30 "

[28] Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

[29] Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

[30] For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light".

Matthew 12:31 "Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men".

Matthew 12:34-37 

[34] O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.

[35] A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.

[36] But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

[37] For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.

Matthew 13:
[25] But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.
[57] And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.

Matthew 14:[21] And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and children.

Matthew 15:[13] But he answered and said, Every plant, which my heavenly Father hath not planted, shall be rooted up.

Matthew 15:[26] But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.

Matthew 16
[18] And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
[19] And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

[26] For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

Matthew 19:30
[30] But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.

WHO IS UGLY?

By Peace Wobo

This one is dedicated to everyone that is suffering from low self esteem and inferiority complex; you have never felt good enough or pretty enough. You need to hear me and hear me well.
You are perfectly made by God.
The Bible never made mention of anybody being ugly, rather the Bible says in Psalms 139:14 "I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well". You are fearfully and wonderfully made.  You often hear people say that some people are ugly and you let their opinion affect you, why? That's people's opinion not God's, besides what is their standard of measurement and who set the standard? According to Pastor Sam of Day Star Church, "Ugly is someone's opinion and that opinion is not valid, you are perfect for your assignment, you have the perfect body and shape."

Don't feel bad about how you look or about your shape. You didn't make yourself. God made you and He is perfect in all His ways. They can't blame you for your look or your shape because you didn't make them yourself.

Let me tell  you who an ugly person is, an ugly person is someone without character. You can only be blamed for your character because you have a choice over it.
Proverbs 31:30 "Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised".
All you need is the fear of the LORD, fear God and you will see His beauty radiating over your life. I know of so many people who prided in their looks but are nowhere today. Nobody is ugly in their natural looks only characterless people are ugly. Don't let people's opinion weigh you down, believe God's word and stand out.
You are beautiful!
