We have an Advocate.


It’s worthwhile good to know what you have so as to live on the top of your personality. As children of God, this fact should always be settled inside of us. The fact that we have an advocate, Jesus Christ, with the father (God) in heaven. An advocate is one who stand in the gap for one, argues to receive a favourable judgement. In a short word, an advocate is one who argues your course with the one who has the power over your life. This advocate never condemns you, he appeal through the right deeds you have done and gives you advice and instructions on the pattern of behavior and attitudes that won’t set you against the favour of the one who holds the power over your life.   

My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. 1John 1:2

Jesus is not in heaven now having fun, he is there as an advocate at the right hand of the father on our behalf, till his enemies (which are also our enemies) be put to defeat. He is eagerly waiting for you to receive and abide by the instructions and the necessary attitudes that will make you pure and acceptable before the father, so the father can find you worthy of his favour. 

Jesus is for us, and if Jesus is for us, we can be sure God is for us. You are not condemned, you are not a castaway. God was challenging the Israelites in the Old Testament when they were complaining about God's rejection of them.  God asked them, ‘where is the evidence of the divorce between me and you?’ it is because God never divorce us. He told the Israelites, ‘if one fall, won’t he rise again?’ No matter what happens, what matters most is that you are back on your feet. 

Whatever happens to you, whatever you may be seeing, know this of a certainty; you have an advocate with God. And because you have him, you can get anything and everything from God. Keep calm, just ask in faith from the father through the name of Jesus Christ, the advocate, and he will grant you all the desires of your heart. You just have to listen to your advocate, as his advice and instructions sets you up for the favour of the Judge (Great Father).

If you don't know Jesus as Savior, you can pray this right now: ", Jesus Christ, i want to get to know you and trust you. I humbly ask you to accept me into your kingdom, not because i deserve it but because on the cross, it was finished. You paid it all! I accept you as my Lord and Savior today, you died for me and rose for me, thank you Lord. I pray this in Jesus Name. Amen."

God doesn't call the equipped…He equips the called

God doesn't call the equipped…He equips the called He equips the called. Let’s look at this throughout Scripture. If you've been in the church for more any amount of time, you've probably heard a lot of the “big names” in the Bible—people like Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Noah, Peter, Paul, Elijah—the guys who did big, amazing things for the Lord. Moses was there at the parting of the Red Sea. Abraham was willing to sacrifice his own son to obey God. Elijah fought against over 400 prophets of the idol Baal. Moses led God’s people out of slavery. And Paul was one of the greatest evangelists to ever walk the planet. But have you ever looked at the list of their failures? Despite their failures, God managed to use each of them in incredible ways! And the best part was, it wasn't them doing the work! It was Christ’s power in them! On our own we cannot accomplish anything. But Christ can do anything! Check out these  powerful verses: 2 Corinthians 12:9-1

God’s undeserved kindness to you

If we see our past, none of us deserve the salvation, out of his magnificent kindness he has saved us and He has hand picked us. ‘I will surely show you kindness.’ 2 Samuel 9:7 In Bible times, when a new king ascended to the throne, he commonly killed or banished each and every member of the historical king’s family. So, here’s the story. Jonathan, King Saul’s son, and David, whom Saul hated, have been shut friends. So close, they made a covenant to guard one every other with their lives. After Jonathan and Saul died in battle, Jonathan had one last son known as Mephibosheth. So, David had him delivered to the palace, saying, ‘I will sincerely exhibit you kindness for the sake of your father Jonathan. I will repair to you all the land that belonged to your grandfather Saul, and you will constantly consume at my table.’ Mephibosheth used to be dwelling in Lo Debar, which skill ‘the land of nothing…the region of no bread’ (see two Samuel 9:4-5). That’s significant, due to the fact when y

The difference between Samson and Samuel

Everyone has a choice....to become Samson or Samuel!! ‘Time would fail me to tell of…Samson…and Samuel.’ Hebrews 11:32  Samson and Samuel are mentioned in the same Scripture, but there are big differences between them. You ask, ‘Why should I be interested?’ Because as a Christian, you are like them. Each had a miraculous birth, so they’re a picture of those who’ve been born again and called to serve God. Paul writes, ‘These things happened to them as examples, and they were written for our admonition…Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall’ 1 Corinthians 10:11-12 . Difference one: Finances. Samson was greedy and manipulating, whereas Samuel practised integrity. One day Samson bet thirty Philistine princes that they couldn’t solve his riddle, saying, ‘If you cannot explain it to me, then you shall give me thirty linen garments and thirty changes of clothing’ Judges 14:13. Quite a wardrobe, eh? Samson’s emphasis was ‘you shall give me’. He’s an example of
