Marital Peace
Covenant Day of Marital Peace

What is Peace In the Marriage

Peace is something you must continually strive for, commit to, and work purposefully to maintain even in the midst of difficult circumstances. Enjoying peace in your marriage means more than merely refraining from fighting and bickering with your partner. If there is problems, you husband should check yourself to where you have not been adequately providing for your wife.

Asked yourself am providing her with food, am providing her with clothing or am providing her with adequate sexual inter course? If any of these things are missing there will be crisis in the family and you the husband will answer to God.

Apostles Paul says, if a man fail to provide for his family his worse than an unbeliever. 1 Timothy 5:8
That means a pagan is better you if the pagan is satisfying his wife and you’re not, then a pagan is better than you.
That means a man should ask himself whether he is capable of feeding his wife, whether you are capable of clothing her and more importantly whether you can handle her sexually. If the sexual aspect is missing, then the marriage is heading for crisis.

Many men don’t understand the natures of women. Some Men are too busy buying cars, houses, food and clothing for their families and forget the emotional food of the woman.

That is why the house boy or the driver will be filling the gab.
I remember the wife of very big man in Nigeria, they have everything money can buy. Madam has her own Mazedes Bens Car.
Madam packed her car and took a taxi to go and be with a Carpenter who have no bed. She was getting What is missing in her marriage from a poor Capenter. The point is don’t forget the most important aspect of marriage due of your wife.

In the Old Testament a man is permitted to more than one wife. The permissive will of God. His perfect will was for a man to marry one wife. Jesus came to restore this perfect will of God in the New Testament.( Mathew 19:5-6, Ephesians 5:31-33). Every believer today has an obligation to follow the perfect will of God, to Mary only one woman and be faithful to her. Even under the Mosaic law says even if a man takes another younger wife, he is still obligated to sleep with the First wife.
“If he takes another wife, he shall not diminish her food, her clothing, and her marriage rights. And if he does not do these three for her, then she shall go out free, without paying money.” Exodus‬ ‭21:10-11‬ ‭

Feeding your wife is more than feeding her with bread and butter. You feed her with the Word of God, and you make adequate provision for food in the house. Clothing her is more than garments and fabrics. You provide for her total total security; you cover her from negative winds of life blowing from all kinds of people, and you make sure everything that makes her appear decent and dignified is in place, including a house if it is affordable. If she become sick or become pregnant you give her proper attention. When both of you are raising children you need to stay home to help your children and your wife. Then you will certainly enjoy the manifold blessings of God.

Again the importance of Food, Clothing, and Sexual intercourses in any marriage cannot be over-emphasis.
If any of these things is missing in any marriage there will be problems in the marriage.

This is for the wife, while the husband must love their wife and take good care of her like his own body, it will be easy for the man to love his wife, if the wife also respect her husbands. Make easy for you husband to love by respecting his opinion. Don’t disrespect your husband any time. He represent God and Jesus any disrespect to him carries severe punishment from God. For example, Michal the daughter of Saul and the wife of King David, she speaks disrespectful to David while David was dancing for God among the masses. God punished her by making her barrens. (2 Samuel 6:16-23). Women need to be careful.
If you know you can’t respect a man please don’t marry them.

You shall not be barren in the mighty name of Jesus.
Some men will marry an illiterate house girl that respect him instead of marry an arrogant woman.
While women will be flourishing if their husband love them, it is also build a man ego if the wife respect him. It leads to a good of lives for both of them.

WHEN MARRIAGE IS AT THE BREAKING POING:

Resolving conflict is marriage is difficult; because it can be so tricky to navigate, many couples find that unresolved issues and hurts begin to accumulate over time. In many cases, this leads to resentment and more frequent conflict. One way to combat this issue is to intentionally work to create peace in your marriage by uncovering and facing your issues head-on.

Today, we’re sharing 7 things you and your spouse can to do “seek peace and pursue it” in your marriage.

This is not the time to think about who was at fault. This is time to know what was the issue and the problem that needs to be tackled. Not an individual person in the relationship.
Think what you the husband and you the spouse suppose to do that you fail to do. Look for the areas of your own shortcoming that contributed to your partner negative reaction and be willing to apologize to your wife where you think you have failed. Make all efforts to correct yourself.
For example, a man suspect that his wife is paying more than the usual attention to another man. He confronted himself first. He asked himself some serious questions, such as Feeding his wife not only bread and butter but also spiritual food. He also think of clothing and covering and asked himself, when did I buy clothing for my wife last? Then He moved to the area of intimacy, he realize that he has not been doing well in this areas. He apologize to the wife and double his sexual intimacy and purchased clothing. The woman gave feedback, why are you so caring now than before. The problem was resolved.
Therefore there are seven things to do when the marriage is at the breaking points.

1. BE THE FIRST TO APOLOGIZE.
Whether or not your spouse is in the wrong alongside you doesn’t matter–what matters is whether you’re willing to step up and say you’re sorry first. Don’t wait around for your spouse to come to you; if you have something you need to apologize for, go ahead and do it. This will open the door for your spouse to respond in kind if he or she has been holding out. (Just be sure to only apologize if you actually have something to apologize for!)

2. OWN YOUR MISTAKES.
Avoiding responsibility for bad decisions you make or hurtful things you say to your spouse will only make wounds fester and grow worse over time. Even though you might not want to admit to any wrongdoing, it’s best to bite the bullet and admit you made a mistake. Your spouse will be more likely to extend forgiveness sooner if you’re willing to own your part when you apologize.

3. DON’T SWEEP THINGS UNDER THE RUG.
If you’ve got unresolved conflict under the surface of your marriage, sooner or later, it’s going to get bigger and bigger until you can’t handle it anymore. Don’t sweep issues under the rug, hide from them, or send them down the road; face them head-on, and acknowledge their presence so they’ll be less likely to keep growing.

4. ENCOURAGE YOUR SPOUSE TO FACE ISSUES TOGETHER.
You and your spouse can create peace together by facing down your conflicts, challenges, and issues as a team. The two of you are stronger together than you are apart, and if only one of you is fighting your battles, that could lead to resentment and conflict between the two of you. Put your heads together to create solutions and ideas that will lead you away from strife and toward a happy, peaceful existence together.

5. SPEAK THE TRUTH IN LOVE.
Sometimes, you have to say things your spouse doesn’t want to hear. And you know it’s going to hurt you, too, when your spouse responds in pain or anger. Approach him or her in a loving way and lay all your cards on the table; if he or she has an issue that is hurting your marriage or family–or is even just harmful to them in some way–you have to put it out there. It could be addiction, hurtful behavior, or any number of things. Your spouse’s well being may depend on you speaking up. And if he or she goes down a destructive path, your marriage goes down, too.

6. BITE YOUR TONGUE.
On the flipside, sometimes you have to check yourself to keep the peace. Do you tend to speak before you think, saying hurtful things in the process? Is it sometimes hard to rein in your temper when the going gets rough? If you want to seek peace first, it will pay dividends to learn when to hold your tongue and think about what you’re about to say before it comes out of your mouth.

7. ASK FOR HELP.
If your marriage is in trouble and you can’t seem to achieve peace on your own, it’s healthy and wise to ask for help. A trusted friend, pastor, mentor, or counselor can help you determine your next steps toward establishing peace in your marriage. Do your best to get your spouse on board, and work together with that trusted person in order to get on solid ground.

At this this time Give God thanks for his blessings upon your family
Pray that God help fulfill your marital obligations
Pray for the perfect will of God be done in your family.

Love

The Covenant Day of Love.

What is Love?
Love means to be deeply committed and connected to someone or something. To feel more than liking toward someone. It is a bond that two people share.

The word Love is mostly abused by the people. Today the love of things is been promoted by the commercials. You will be hearing I love my shoe, I love my dress. I love that bag. I love that car. I love my team.

However, Godly love is hardly promoted in this world. Godly Love is the true love. Is the agape love. It is unconditional love. This is the Love I will be discussing today.

There are different types of Love.
* Storge/ Philia Love is affectionate Love for family member without romantic attraction. The Love is called pragma or enduring Love or Familiar Love. However, if you see a boy and a girl from the same parent and the were kissing each and they were sharing the same bed, then, they have cross the boundary of Philia Love to erotic love. Sometimes we hear that some father defiled their own daughter or a boy sleeping with her mother. This INCEST has cross the boundary of familia love.
* Eros-This is romantic Love between people of opposite sex. Before one can date and propose to an opposite sex, be it male or female you must have Erotic love for that individual boy or girl. It is easier to differentiates between familiar love from erotic love. If your wife tells you that so and so person is my family members, you will know the truth by the language and the kind of play they have between them. There have been some cases where the wife will introduce an uncle to the husband, only for the husband to find the man in bed with his wife. Men and women need to be vigilant
* Mania love is an obsession love for another person. Mania is a mental illness marked by a period of great excitement or euphoria, delusions and overactivity. Mania love is an obsession with a man or with a woman.
* Philautia -Self Love or regard for one’s own happiness or advantage. It means the selfish person who love themselves only. Egocentric Love is thinking of oneself regardless of the feelings of others.
* Lupus Love is playful Or uncommitted love. It can involve activities such as teasing and dancing or over flirting, seducing and conjugating. The focus in on having fun without any commitment. This can lead to sexual activities and unwanted pregnancies. That is why there are too many Children born out of wedlock.
* Agape – Selfless Love. Agape is Greek word. This is God fatherly love for humans race and human for God their creator. Agape is the highest form of love and is contrasted with Eros,and Philia or brotherly love.

Today we shall be talking about agape Love. Unconditional Love. Divine Love.

Jesus Christ and Jehovah God are the perfect examples of agape love. The Bible help us to know that God is Love.
Therefore, agape love is God. Apostle John said,
“Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.
He who does not love, does not know God, for God is love.”
‭‭I John‬ ‭4:7-8‬ ‭NKJV‬‬.

Therefore anyone who did not have unconditional love for fellow humans are ignorant of who God is. That means, the identifying mark of believers is Love. The Love of God and the love for fellow humans. The LORD told Prophets Jeremiah saying: “Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love; Therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you.” Jeremiah‬ ‭31:3‬ ‭.

Jesus said, no one can come to me unless the father who sent me, draws him. John 6:44.
It is the Love of God that converted people and bring them to Jesus for Salvation, for healing and for deliverance. Sometimes some people will be boasting how many people they have brought to the Church. No one can convert a single soul without God’s Love. If God did not ordained someone for salvation and brings them to Jesus for salvation, No human efforts will do. We have no reason to take credit for what God have done.

God loved the world so much and sacrifice his only son, Jesus , the Christ. Anyone who have faith in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life. (John 3:16) 1 John 5:20
Jesus said, I am giving you a new commandment, that you love one another and by this all will know that you are my disciples.
Divine Love is a new commandment that all believers should excises toward one and another. Love is the identifying mark of true Christians.(John 13:34-35)

King David recognizes how much love God has for his creatures, when He said: “How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God! Therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of Your wings.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭36:7‬.
Love Remains The The Identifying Mark of Christians. Love made you and I to trust God.( John 13:34-35)

How do we demonstrate that we have genius love for one another ? Apostle Paul gave us practical meaning of Love. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8. He said:
1. Love is long suffering. Love is patient. Love endures all things.
2. Love is Kind. Kindness is a quality of being friendly, generous and consideration for others.
3. Love does not envy. Envy is an emotion which occurs when a person lacks another’s superior quality, achievement, or possession. In short envy is opposite kindness.
4. Love does not parade itself. Boastful
5. Love is not puff up, nor boastful or arrogant
6. Love does not behave rudely.
7. Love does not seek its own interest
8. Love is not provoked. Provocation is emotional reaction to negative events.
9. Love does not think evil. It doesn’t;t think of doing evil to anyone.
10. Love does not rejoice in iniquity. Love hate sinnin
11. Love rejoice in the truth
12. Love bears all things
13. Love believes all things
14. Love Hope in all things
15. Love endures all things
16. Love never Fails.

The Agape Love described above by Paul is unconditional Love. This is the type of Love display by God and Jesus Christ. We too should emulate our Heavenly father’s in displaying agape Love. It is called Divine Love or Principle Love and unconditional love. God rain upon the righteous and rain upon the wicked. Jesus prayed for his enemies. He also died for our sin while we are still sinning.

On the other hands, Human love is conditional. It is based on what can I get in return or retaliatory. Meaning what you do to me is what I do to you in return.
The conditional love was exhibited by people serving God based on what they can gain from God. Some people pray to God to kill their enemies, while others are praying for material blessings. These are not agape love for God but egocentric love. Thinking of oneself only without regards to God’s feelings and his desires.

The Love for God and the Love for humanity is the greatest commandments. Jesus told his disciples, “You shall love the LORD with all your hearts, with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment.
And the second one is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”(Mark 12:30) (Mathew 22:35-39)

In Summary, Divine Love is agape love. This kind of Love is unconditional Love shown by Jesus when he died for our sins. The Divine Love is long suffering and kind. It does not think of his own interest but have consideration for other people’s feelings. It is not boastful. Divine Love never fails. A servant of God has the responsibility to teach their member how to show unselfish love for God. As a believer, we are to emulate our Heavenly Father by displaying agape love to all humans regardless of their race or culture.

Some people had a bad experience in their early lives and they have developed a loveless and stubborn heart. They have the heart of stones. They don’t know what is called love because nobody show them love in their early lives.
For example some Children were born by unloving mother who threw them in the garbages. Many of these children were raised in government motherless homes.

What can they do to learn how to love and to develop a loving heart?
If you’re one of these categories of people who don’t know how to love? There is hope. There is good news.
God promised in the Book of Ezekiel 36:26: “I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh”.
This is good news for the people who will benefit from the new things God are doing. Given them of new heart will remove the heart of stone and to be replaced with a new spirit of love. They will have a three hundred and sixty degree turn around from being hateful person to a loving human beings.(Ezekiel 36:26)

In one of the final teachings of Jesus Christ, He said:” As my father loved me, I have loved you. Abide in my love. All believers has to be obedient to love one another. Because love is the identifying mark of true Jesus followers. This kind of Godly love never fails.
Receive the spirit of God’s love in the might name of Jesus. Amen.

Prayers:

Pray to God to give you a loving heart.
Pray for the grace of unselfish love
Pray for you MOG to teach people the principle of agape love

Receive the spirit of Love in the might name of Jesus.

To AMERICA. Part 1

In 2015 God revealed to me about his discipline on the nations that rejected him.
The assault on American Democracy and the pandemic is a token punishment by God. God used Donald Trump to bring America down to the shocking of the whole world. Because American succumbed to the depopulation agenda of Satan the Devil when they broke their covenant relationship with God and rejected his laws on marriage between a man and a woman.
Read my Book.
Know Your Spiritual Identity Page 6,78. has the information regarding the current events.

Again in 10/16/2021 during the Presidential Election, I seek God for directions about who to vote for. Then God showed me blood of peoples. This was shown to warn me that voting for Donald Trump will result in a bloodshed.
That revelation came to pass January 6, 2021. The mob rioters invaded the American symbol of Democracy and justice. They unleash terror and desecrated the hallowed Chambers of Capitol Hill.
Four people were murdered.

Thus said the Lord,
“Come near, you nations, to hear;
And heed, you people! Let the earth hear, and all that is in it,
The world and all things that come forth from it.”
‭‭”For the indignation of the LORD is against all nations, And His fury against all their armies; He has utterly destroyed them, He has given them over to the slaughter.”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭34:1-2 NKJV‬

“The wicked shall be turned into hell, And all the nations that forget God.”Psalms‬ ‭9:17‬

Do you make laws that are in contradiction to God’s laws?
Did your nation forget God? Do you believe in God? If your answer is yes to one of these questions?

REPENT Now.
God is laughing at us the Psalmist wrote:
“But You, O LORD, shall laugh at them; You shall have all the nations in derision.”Psalms‬ ‭59:8‬ ‭

“The nations shall see and be ashamed of all their might; They shall put their hand over their mouth; Their ears shall be deaf.”Micah‬ ‭7:16‬ ‭

The truth is that God is the Almighty and the superpowers. Humans are mere dust that can be blown away by Jehovah’s breath.

Thus said the LORD,
“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for Me; Because you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children.”Hosea‬ ‭4:6‬ ‭

Yahweh sent Prophets Hosea to remind the nation of Israel that they have forgotten His laws and He will reject them and forget their children.
Similarly the nations of this world have forgotten the God of their forefathers and we are rejecting God’s law on Marriage between man and woman. Our scientists are cloning humans, plants and animals. Sexual perversion between animals and humans are on the increase just to mention but few.
God is not happy with human race just as he was disgusted with Sodom and Gomorrah.
Jude wrote:
“as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar manner to these, having given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.”Jude‬ ‭1:7‬ ‭NKJV

Coronavirus, C19 virus is a wake up call to all the nations.
For example,
America was God’s own country. Her laws was based on Biblical, Godly principles. The rest of the world are copying the Americans laws. However, Americans have rejected and deviated from God’s laws on marriage and cloning. God is not happy with us. If men failed to repent and change their behavior and laws that contravene God’s laws we may not be able to survive the next punishment.

This said the Lord,
“if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.” II Chronicles‬ ‭7:14‬ ‭

We have a choice to choose life and live or to continue in our sins and “pay the price”.
This is best time to come to Jesus for salvation, for deliverance and for healing. And surrender your rulership to Jesus. The nation that pleases God shall follow God’s kingdom principles.

I pray for our Government to humble themselves and declare national month of fasting and prayers;
Reverse their laws to comply with Godly principles;
and God shall heal our lands in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.
Read Isaiah 26:20

In 2015 God revealed to me about his discipline on the nations that rejected him.
The assault on American Democracy and the pandemic is a token punishment by God. God allow Donald Trump to shame America. American succumbed to the depopulation agenda of Satan the Devil.

Fasting that God Approve:

What is a fast?

Fasting is the willful refrainment from eating for a period of time. And denying one flesh from sinning. Fasting is a good time to confess your sins and to repent from sinning. It is a time to seek God’s mercy and forgiveness. A time to meditate on God’s words and to be close to Him.

There are two types of fasting.
Individual fasting and corporate or national Fasting.

The individual fasting should be done privately. Only God and your spouse need to know that you’re fasting
Jesus said, “Moreover, when you fast, do not be like the hypocrites, with a sad countenance.
For they disfigure their faces that they may appear to men to be fasting.
Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward.” Matthew‬ ‭6:16‬-18‭NKJV‬‬

The individual fasting should be done privately. Only God and your spouse need to know that you are fasting.

The second type of Fasting is a national fasting or Corporate fasting. The Church leaders or Head of State, may call for nation wide fasting on a particular days.
For example, The Winners Church fasting is every Wednesday of the week.

Why is fasting important?
Fasting is very important for anyone who wants power from God to overcome some obstacles.

For example, I have some unruly tenants in my house and she was boasted of not moving anywhere and that all the police and judges are her boyfriends. How do I evict this tenants when the court were closed. I started fasting and praying to God. That same day they started moving out. This is just one example.

Another example, was a Sister was seriously sick and the enemies were sharing her body parts in her dreams. I started fasting for this lady and within four days she recovered and the spirit of death was canceled. May God take all the glory.
These are just recent testimonies on how fasting can be effectively utilized to solving problems.
When Jesus disciples were unable to heal a boy who suffered sizture and convulsions. Jesus said,
this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.””
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭17:21‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
Fasting and prayers have been a powerful weapons to defeat your enemies.

The second type of fasting is corporate fasting or national fasting the kind of fasting done by the city of Nineveh.

God call the nation of Israel to repent in Joel 2:12’

God is Calling the Americans and The United Nations To Repent.

And I quote:
. “says the LORD, “Turn to Me with all your heart, With fasting, with weeping, and with mourning.”
So rend your heart, and not your garments; Return to the LORD your God. Joel‬ ‭2:12-13‬

What is God looking for when you decide to fast?

God is expecting us to stop undue racism and discrimination.
To release the prisoners and the people you have locked up in your prisons.
To give freedom to your servants and to your house helps.
To pay compensation to the affected black Africans
Americans who have been Psychologically damaged due to the effects of colonizations and slavery. Africans are still not free economic and politically.
The British and the French needed to restore Africans to the pre colonial era to foster peace and progress.
God wants us to stop killing innocent babies through abortion
He wants us to continue reproduced children through the principles of marriage.
God wants to repent of our sins both private sins and national sins.
To feed the hungry and to open your house to the homeless and to give clothing to the naked.
Let our president declares a national Prayers and Fasting for Seven days to heal our nation and restore our country to prosperity.

God says, “if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.”
‭‭II Chronicles‬ ‭7:14‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Then your light will breakout. Your healing will be quick.
Your peace and prosperity will be abundant.

For God is gracious and merciful, Slow to anger, and of great kindness; And He relents from doing harm to anyone.
Isaiah 58:6-8

Again The Benefits of fasting are:
1. Getting closer to God
2. To get Power from God
3. To defeat your enemies
4. To do healing for the sick
5. To have more anointing and grace.
Fasting and prayers are the power source of Christians power. Go and fast and come back with testimonies.

The American Idols

The American Idol was a Television Episode or a Television Show. Many of us enjoy watching this shows. Anyone of the contestants who won this show become rich and famous. Many commercial signs her up for their products.
The question is who is your idol? Who do idolize? Who do you follow blindly? Why I am I asking these questions? The reason was Satan is promoting idol worshipping in the subtle name of loyalty to one’s religion or loyalty to one’s pastors.
Many people have become an Idol worshippers in the church without knowing it.
One man of God was threatening another person, “I can kill you if you speak against my pastors or my religion. Is that person better than a Muslim Jihadists who killed people who says wrong against their prophets. That pastors or religion has become an idols to him or her.

Other are so loyal to their religion to the point that anyone who spoke against their religion beliefs is speaking against God himself.
Their religion has become an Idol and they have become an idolaters

Did God encourage you to follow your prophets, your pastor or your religion blindly?

Let us hear from Apostles John.
He said, “Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world.” 1 John‬ ‭4:1‬ ‭
This scripture wanted you to examine and compares what your religion or prophets are teaching with the Scriptures to know whether their teaching is from God. If you’re listening to God you will not idolize any human being.

Apostles Paul commends the Churches of Bereans. He said,
“ These were more fair-minded (not fanatical) than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness, and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so.”
‭‭Acts‬ ‭17:11‬ ‭NKJV‬‬.

Are you searching the Scripture daily to make sure your religion is teaching you the truth? If you do, you will not be guilty of idolatry.

Let examine Jesus and his Apostles examples.

Do the Apostles encourage absolute loyalty or idolize our pastor or religion? The answer is no.
What is the Holy Angels saying to Apostles John about idolizes him?
“Then he said to me, “See that you do not do that. For I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren the prophets, and of those who keep the words of this book. Worship God.””Revelation‬ ‭22:9‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Angels reject Apostles John worship saying that worship belongs to God only.
Presently Satan is introducing idolatry into the Churches. For example, an Evangelist Singer’s was praising his her Pastor Ajanaku that God’s of Ajanakun, shortly after the prophets Ajanakun dies, and the Secret cult people came to bury him.
This is why a believers needed to examine and test all the teachings coming from your church and prophets because there are many false prophets in the world. May you not worship God in vain.

Another examples was, there was two prophets in America in the 80s.
David Coresh in Waco Texas and James Jones is South America.
The latter gave poisoned cool aid to his followers and told they would see God after drinking the Holy cool aid. They were dead.
David Coresh of Waco Texas
claimed to be Jesus incarnation. He dressed like Jesus and when the government wants to arrest him for drugs and child
molestation. He locked himself and the thousands of members inside and they were all died in fire. Only few people who are doubters escaped and were able to tell the story.

Don’t misplaced loyalty to blind followers-hip. Please don’t believe any prophets or religion. Examine and test their teachings from the Bible. Obedience is better than sacrifice.

People buy any product labels with American idols thinking it must be good and fashionable. Satan is introducing religion idols in our churches. You must be careful not to enter his traps.

Jesus was saying that not everyone (not every prophets, not every Pastors) using his name to cast out demons or to heal the sick) are doing the will of God. And He Jesus will reject them as workers of iniquity. If you’re their loyalists and can you kill for them, if God reject them where would you be? Meditate on Mathew 7:21-23.

In conclusion, While God did not condone rebellious and stubborn behavior in the Church, He also categorized idolatry as a sin.

May God not reject our worship in the mighty name of Jesus.

Prophets Samuel told King Saul,
“For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, And stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the LORD, He also has rejected you from being king.”
‭‭I Samuel‬ ‭15:23‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
May God not reject you in the last days. Aaaamen
- [ ] May God not reject your worship in the mighty name of Jesus
