BE A GOOD LEADER

BE A GOOD LEADER
‘A good man leaveth an inheritance for his children ….. Proverbs 13:22”
A
s we enter the second month of the first quarter of the year, I will like you to  make up your mind to be a good leader. Every man is a leader. It all depends on the capacity in which you are acting. A man in one way or the other will find himself playing the role of a leader, at least as a father in his house or as a leader in his community, local government, state or at the national level. It is very unfortunate that as a nation, we have not be successful at producing good leaders to a larger extent. I am sorry to say that in my own opinion, what we have had most as leaders are those who have successful helped to squander the wealth of this nation, bastardized the economy and dashed the hope of the common man.  
What was supposed to be our inheritance have been exported out of the country and kept overseas with little or no hope in sight for the “children”. This was one of the reason for the massive “brain drain syndrome we experienced in the 90s. With the present crop of leaders, we just hope and believe God for better days ahead.
As a father to your children, can you with all boldness say you are a good man? What have you being doing now to leave and inheritance that will last for at least three generations? There are many fathers who don’t care about their children’s education, home training and spiritual training (upbringing). They are too busy with business and politics that they never remember to “insure” the future if their children. It is very sad to know that there are ministries who are good at disciplining other people’s children, but with children who have grown wild. They are in church on Sundays while their children attend disco parties on Sundays in the name on staying on campus.

Don’t Look Back!

Don’t Look Back! Luke 9:62 – And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God. Have you answered the call to serve God as His son and daughter? Have you totally chosen Jehovah as your God? Have you decided to leave your old ways and cleave unto God? If yes! Beloved I congratulate you. But hope you took the cost of your choice?? [Please refer to yesterday’s sermon] God doesn’t want us to look back when we have answered the call, why? This is because of the following: Firstly, it brings shame to the body of Christ and makes people to despise Christ. Looking back is to be lukewarm and to depart from the first love! [Revelation 2:4, Revelation 3:16] Secondly, looking back makes the believer to suffer backwardness spiritually and physical. The faith of the believer suffers and takes a longer time to be rebuilt. [Hebrews 6:4]. Thirdly, looking back will make the person not to complete whatever he or she has started. This is w...

Heart Not Garment - 2

By Date -
"Rend your heart, and not your garments." --Joel 2:13 Apart from vital godliness all religion is utterly vain; offered without a sincere heart, every form of worship is a solemn sham and an impudent mockery of the majesty of heaven. HEART-RENDING is divinely wrought and solemnly felt. It is a secret grief which is personally experienced, not in mere form, but as a deep, soul-moving work of the Holy Spirit upon the inmost heart of each believer. It is not a matter to be merely talked of and believed in, but keenly and sensitively felt in every living child of the living God. It is powerfully humiliating, and completely sin-purging; but then it is sweetly preparative for those gracious consolations which proud un-humbled spirits are unable to receive; and it is distinctly discriminating, for it belongs to the elect of God, and to them alone.

Faulty Covenant

By Date -
Faulty Covenant Hebrews 8:7 [7] For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. Covenant as a strong bound that is not easily broken can be faulty. The covenant made betwixt God and the Israelites was a faulty covenant in this time of Grace but perfect in it's time. The covenant wasn't to lead sinner's unto Christ's but it was to lead them unto their destructive end quickly. The old covenant was a period of darkness and pains (because it was more by works and not by grace) but thanks to God who invalidated the old covenant and gave us the covenant of Grace where Jesus is the mediator no longer Moses. God spoken of the new covenant long ago in Jeremiah 31:31; it was manifested in Christ. This new covenant brings light to the soul. Every covenant that do not bring light to your life, be destroyed now by fire! Whatever makes you to live by work and not by grace be destroyed! For God's name sake, let everyt...
