The Power Of Giving
2March 21, 2012
Hi Jesus loves you.
How much of the giving power do you have? The wisdom of giving cannot be over-emphasized. How disposed you are to giving determines your level of prosperity. A giving person will always enjoy a prosperous life. This article gives the relationship between giving and a prosperous life.
There is that scattereth, and yet increaseth; and there is that withholdeth more than is meet, but it tendeth to poverty- Proverbs 11:24 (KJV)
Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again – Luke 6:38
I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive – Acts 20:35 (KJV)
The world system says hold back as much as you can but God says give as much as you can if you want to prosper. This is most common in the area of finances. But I am happy to point out now that the world is learning to adopt God’s own principles for a prosperous life.
All round prosperity can never be complete without giving. The more you give the more you receive. What you make to happen for another, God will make to happen for you. Certainly what you sow, you will reap.
What can you give? You may be saying now, that you don’t have to give. But you do! You can give love, your time and energy, money, your knowledge and skill, hospitality, your possessions, etc. So, can you see what you can give now?
The power of giving never leaves the possessor empty. He is the first beneficiary. The benefits are enormous and encompass the spirit, soul and the body of the individual, which results to prosperous life. For example, you have joy when you share whatever you have with another. When you put a smile on someone’s face, you inevitably do so also on your face. (more…)
God And The Nature Of Man
0February 29, 2012
Hi Jesus loves you
Do you wonder why you act badly sometimes, no matter how much you try not to? Perhaps your friend shocked you by his wicked actions and you are yet to relate it to what you thought you knew about him. The wicked nature of man knows no bounds and can always spring up surprises. Who can help?
The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? – Jeremiah 17:9
I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: – Deuteronomy 30:19
Man is naturally selfish and greedy. He does everything to benefit himself immediately or in the long run. He will do good or bad things if it will in anyway satisfy him, even if it is momentarily. Wickedness destroys not only the victim but also the perpetrator.
Man will tell lies on his colleague in search of a promotion. He will break up families just to satisfy his sexual desires. He will push for abortion to avoid commitment. Furthermore, man will kill for power and/or wealth. The list can go on and on. Who can help this wicked nature of man?
Some people are morally good. But their natural way of life comes up when they are forced to make a choice between pleasing themselves or another person. It takes inner strength and maturity to be able to please another instead of self.
“Nature, Mr Allnut, is what we are put into this world to rise above.” says Rose in the classic movie ‘The African Queen’. This wicked nature of man came after the fall of man in the Garden of Eden. Now, every day we are faced with choices to make: to rise above this nature or not. You choose either to love or hate, to show respect or disrespect, to be honest or dishonest, to be patient or impatient, to forgive or not, etc. (more…)
Enjoying End Of Year With His goodness

Hi Jesus loves you
How has your year been? Is it better or worse than last year? Every end of year is to be better than the former. Our lives are meant to be filled with goodness. This article expresses how to end the year with the best part of blessings.
Thou crownest the year with thy goodness; and thy paths drop fatness – Psalm 65:11 (KJV)
We really need to put in our best to get the best out of anything. A wise man said, “Put in nothing and you will get nothing”. For us to enjoy any end of year with goodness, we must have put in our own share of work, skill, diligence, love, studying, and wisdom practices, etc. But you must understand that it does not depend totally and only on your effort.
The race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; not of him that wills, nor of him that runs, but of God that shows mercy.
God is the ultimate authority to reckon with if you are to end the year with goodness. You need His seal on all your efforts and inputs. No matter the state of affairs with you presently, God’s touch will drop fatness. Nothing is impossible with God, only believe.
So, how far have you gone in preparation to enjoy the best part of this year now?
- What would you want to see happen realistically before the end of the year?
- What does God say about it in His word?
- Do you believe it?
- Have you asked God for it?
- Are you declaring it?
- Do you believe God enough to thank Him for the answer before you see it?
Your answers to above questions give a picture of the amount of goodness you will enjoy this end of year. (more…)

The Amazing grace of God, which is the unmerited favour of God and blessings has been given to all and can be multiplied. We are in the dispensation of grace and God’s grace is the key to a successful and victorious life. By Grace are we justified, saved, sustained, perfected, helped and alive, etc. That means we really need to grow in grace as Peter encouraged every Christian. This post gives the 3 ways to achieve this.
3 ways to increase the grace of God upon your life
1. Through the knowledge of God and Jesus
As you increase your knowledge of God, you also increase in God’s grace. The word of God reveals more about God to you; builds your faith in God and increases your tendencies to reach out for His grace. Jesus wants to make Himself known to us more and as we allow Him by studying God’s word and listening to sound teachings, His grace will be imparted upon us, even the grace of God to give.
2. Through prayers
Paul admonishes us to come boldly to the throne of grace and obtain grace. Jesus said that if we ask we shall receive. So ask God to multiply His Amazing grace upon your life, knowing that when you ask you shall surely receive. Receive more grace of God daily and your life will never be the same.
