O Lord! Fight For Me

O Lord! Fight For Me Joshua 10:11 – And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, and were in the going down to Bethhoron, that the LORD cast down great stones from heaven upon them unto Azekah, and they died: they were more which died with hailstones than they whom the children of Israel slew with the sword. When battles are fought by the Lord, it is total victory. None of those that came as enemy of the Lord’s people go back alive. This is what happened in the scripture above. In this life, there are tendencies that people will just begin to fight you for no just cause. They might even incorporate the assistance of others in a bid to just out number you. Beloved, in a situation like the said, you don’t need to fear. All you have to do is to call on the Lord and to totally rely on Him. The fact that you are outnumbered physically doesn’t mean that they will defeat you. Once God is with you and fighting for you, then none will defeat you but those that came up against you will

Salvation: A Continuous Process!

Salvation: A Continuous Process! Philippians 2:12 – Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. Is salvation a one-time thing? Can salvation be lost after gained? The answers to the questions is NO and YES. Salvation is not a one-time thing and salvation can be lost after it has been gained. How was salvation gained? It was through our believing. When we confessed and believed that was when we became saved. Since we were saved through our belief in the works of Christ Jesus and in Jesus Christ then we can become unsaved at the point we start disbelieving in both Jesus Christ and in His works. Hence salvation [which means to be saved] can be lost. Salvation is not a one-time thing. Yes! at the point of believing, salvation was obtained but the obtained salvation needs to be retained through our continuous believe and obedience. That is what Apostle Paul made clear in th

Don’t Erase Your Good!

Don’t Erase Your Good! Ezekiel 3:20 – Again, When a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumbling block before him, he shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thine hand. Few days ago, we discussed Totally Forgiven [details are here in parts, 1 and 2 ]. We found out that once God forgives anyone that person remains forgiven and the record of sins done by him or her are totally erased. Is this applicable to one’s righteousness? The above scriptures make us to understand that if a righteous person turns from his/her righteousness to wickedness and eventually dies in wickedness, then the righteousness of that former righteous person is totally erased! Is God wicked? God doesn’t rob peter to pay Paul, Galatians 6:7. What is applicable to the sins of the former sinner that is what is also applicable to th
