Whom To Imitate?

Whom To Imitate?
Hebrews 6:11-12 – And it is our desire that you may all keep the same high purpose in certain hope to the end. that ye be not sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and patience have been inheritors of the promises.

Greetings beloved of God! No one is an island and none is a model to himself or herself. The life is filled with so many good and bad examples and each example given a result which is as a result of some actions and/or inactions. The result you desire will determine which example you are to apply which in turn define your actions and inactions,

The word of God to us today is telling us that if we need good and if we want to inherit the promises of God, then we have to use those that inherited the promise of God in their life as our example. We have to do what they did, even better than them if we can.


Apostle Paul advised us to imitate him because he his imitating Jesus Christ [1 Corinthians 11:1]. Beloved, who are you imitating? Who are you taking advice from? Who are you associating yourself with? Which example are you applying in your life in order that you will inherit the promises of God to you? 1 Corinthians 4:16-17, Philippians 3:17, 1 Corinthians 10:6-11, Hebrews 13:7, 1 Corinthians 15:33, Proverbs 22:25.

Please imitate those that imitate Christ. That live as Christ lived and that talk as Christ talked. Don’t imitate evil else you won’t inherit the promises because you will be snared and destroyed. Pray that God will help you to continuously imitate good and do good as well. Shalom!

Sheep’s Clothing!

Sheep’s Clothing! Matthew 7:14 – Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. It is no more a news that there are many false prophets in this world. They have been even since the Bible days. Elymas in Acts 13:8 was a false prophet that tried to pervert the heart of the people from God. That is the work of these false prophets. They are workers of the devil and nothing about their life is God’s; from the outside they look like God’s prophets and messengers but they are recruiting souls for the devil. They use magic, human wisdom, human strategies to do their work. Consider again, Balaam to an extent I will consider him as a false prophet because he tried to curse the blessed of God and to stop the will of God for His children. Though Balaam hears from God but he wasn’t doing things according to God’s plan and agenda. He planned to even make God’s children fall. Please read Revelation 2:14 and Jude 1:11. Those in sheep’s c

Ceaseless Celebration

Ceaseless Celebration Leviticus 26:6 – And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid: and I will rid evil beasts out of the land, neither shall the sword go through your land Ezekiel 32:1-10; 34:25-31, Esther 9:1-22, Jeremiah 52:31-34 With Joy, I welcome you all into this month. In this month, we will record ceaseless celebration on every side. This is as a result of what God has done for us and what He is doing as well. He has given us peace and rest on every side. He has incapacitated the enemies of our lives. This is indeed wonderful. In this last month of 2017, the magnitude of God’s judgement on the enemies of your life will render them missing on Earth and you will be celebrated. If you haven’t celebrated this year, this month grace will make you celebrate and if you had celebrated, your celebration will not cease or to sorrow. God will put laughter on your face, royal garments on you and you will be recompensed for all the cel

Grace for Exceeding Multiplication

Grace for Exceeding Multiplication Genesis 17:1-2, 2 Corinthians 8:9 [2] And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly. Grace is God's Riches At Christ Expense. It is the almightiness of God invading the hopelessness of human. It is a commander of attention. It reduces sweat and increases accomplishments, Psalm 89:20. Exceeding means to be very great and to surpass others. To set a new record. Multiplication is to increase greatly in number, not step by step as in addition. PREREQUISITE 1 - OBEDIENCE - Leviticus 25:18 You can't increase when you are unfaithful in your tithing obligation and others. 2 - REMEMBER THOSE THAT HAVE RULE OVER YOU - Hebrews 13:7. The blessing is given by GRACE and the blessing can be multiplied by GRACE, 2 Corinthians 8:1-4, Acts 4:32-35. PRAYERS May Divine grace for expansion be released upon us - Amen. ________________ A sermon by Apostle Samuel Idedevwo of Christ's Chosen Church of God
