"A Cow Led Me To Jesus" - Merry Christmas!

Before we hear this amazing true story, at this time of year, we must ask again, who is Jesus? The bells and sales are ringing louder. The black Friday and Cyber Monday have kicked off the buying frenzy, but please watch your budget. I have completed my outdoor Christmas decorations, just like some of you.  Why are we getting excited, tensed, anxious, joyful, dreadful, depressed, and etc.? We could be exhibiting any one or more of these emotions during this season.  Again, who is Jesus? This is just a reminder, not intended to insult our intelligence. Apostle John who was so close to Jesus, answered this question for us:  "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. All things were created through him, and apart from him not one thing was created that has been created.  The Word became flesh and dwelt among us. We observed his glory, the glory as the one and only Son from the Father, full of grace ...

The Election Revealed Our Hearts

  On November 6th, the day after the USA election, a group of us evangelists went preaching on the streets in a Maryland city. I approached a Caucasian man in his sixties and said to him, sir, I have good news for you. I proceeded to hand him a gospel tract. However, he said, "the only good news I need now is to see Trump drop dead." I was shocked but recovered quickly and said to him, sir, I brought you the good news of Jesus. He grudgingly accepted the gospel tract from me, folded it and put it into his pocket and walked away. I felt empathy for his discouragement and disappointment because his candidate, VP Kamala Harris lost the election. I began to pray for him that God will comfort him and reveal himself to this man. I can only guess that he doesn't have a relationship with Jesus. Please pray for this man to be filled with the Holy Spirit of God. On the other hand, he could equally be a believer in Christ who yielded to the flesh in his reaction and response. Th...

My Best Compliment "Idiot"

While preaching and evangelizing in the streets today, I got my best compliment. A man in his car shouted, "Stop wasting your time, idiot." I shouted back to him, "God bless you." Then he retorted, "Shut up idiot". He was vexed by the two-sided gospel signs I was carrying that said, "Jesus is Lord, Repent and Believe." On the other side it said, "All have Sinned. Repent, Turn, And Trust Christ.” It's an honor to be called “idiot” for Christ’s sake. Lord, I thank you. Please Lord, bless this man and reveal yourself to him and many others who were today, confronted with the truth of the gospel, and save them. Maybe this vexed man has seen me on previous Sundays preaching at the same spot. This is a confirmation that I should not stop, and especially at this location.  Saints, please join me to pray for this man that we will see him in heaven by God’s mercy and grace. In heaven, he can then apologize and hug me and other Saints. Lol. ...

Darren's Suicide Prevented?

Much have been written by the clinical psychologists/psychiatrists and other notable professionals on suicide - causes and prevention.  I am not one of those professionals. I am here to share a moment of truth and revelation from God, the Holy Spirit. I met Darren this Tuesday, a young man in his early twenties at the gym. He was downcast and wouldn't look directly at me as I tried to make eye contact. He went about exercising from one equipment to the other. After about one and half hours, I greeted him and looked directly at his face with a smile and said, how are you. He was surprised that I asked. Then he said he's okay. I told Darren, you and I must have had enough exercising since everyone else have left. Then I introduced myself since I am meeting him for the first time. He said he is Darren. Later, I said, can I give you this? He asked what is it? I said it's about heaven. Then I proceeded to give him a gospel tract (titled “Going To Heaven Is As Simple ...

Why We Must Vote

  Why We Must Vote Dear Saints, Before I go in-depth to answer the question, let's establish that voting and politics is spiritual. Everything about a believer and follower of Christ is spiritual. There's no secular or spiritual distinction in our lives. Everything about us is a worship unto our God. “Whatever you do, do it all to the glory God.” 1 Corinthians 10:31, also see Colossians 3:17 and 23. We are instructed: “Therefore I urge you, brothers and sisters, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies [dedicating all of yourselves, set apart] as a living sacrifice, holy and well-pleasing to God,  which is  your rational (logical, intelligent) act of worship.” Romans 12:1- AMP. I am saying all the above because someone would say, stay away from politics. If we study and write on all other topics in the Bible, why not politics because it is also in the Bible.  Please read Romans 13 and 1 Timothy 2:1-4. So, why should we vote?  If you don't vote, yo...

Forgive My Arrogance of Unbelief

  Forgive My Arrogance of Unbelief It just dawned on me that we literally die daily at night and we call it sleep. Then, in the morning, God in His mercy wakes us up to live for another day, perhaps. Please stop and think about it. "Selah."  While asleep, we are temporarily in a different world. When we truly understand what God has set in motion from the beginning of time, how dare us not to trust Him for every second. I now see my foolish arrogance not to wholeheartedly trust, depend and rely on God's love, mercy and kindness for every second. What can we brag about that God has not given us? You may be thinking about material things. No, I am thinking about life itself. Without life, there are no things to acquire and accumulate. Moreover, we only acquire and accumulate what already exists and provided by God in His mercy. I will confess that it has never hit me (with a four by four) to this level before. The words of Jesus, the Creator, in John 14:1 did it. In fact, i...

THANKSGIVING

THANKSGIVING Happy summer friends. My eyes were opened to this Scripture I have never seen before. I thought to share: " The Levites were Jeshua, Binnui, Kadmiel, Sherebiah, Judah, and Mattaniah who was in charge of the songs of thanksgiving and praise, he and his brothers." - Nehemiah 12:8 AMP. Context: Nehemiah and the Jews from the Babylonia exile of seventy years have just finished rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem despite all attacks and intimidation of their enemies. It is now time of dedication. Thanksgiving and praise were so important that some Levite priests were appointed for this purpose. Look who was in charge, "Mattaniah" which means "God’s gift or Hope." It speaks volumes to me. You and I are "in charge of Thanksgiving and Praise" to God in our lives. God is our gift and Hope. In Thanksgiving, we acknowledge, honor and worship The Source - God. Gratitude will elevate your attitude and altitude to God and people. Apostle Paul sums u...
