The Good Savior

 WAITING ON GOD FOR SALVATION


Waiting patiently unto God does not beget mourning, regret, sober reflection, frustration, desperation, or living a tattered life.


The real meaning of WAITING is to hold on for a result (1sam10:7-27).

This is the Sovereign Lord, the Holy One of Israel, says: "In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietnness and trust is your strength, ... (Isaiah 30: 15-17). Waiting is also silence in hope (Isa32:17) and looking unto God & depending on Him.


Don't look at what people are doing, don't be moved but hope in God and be involve in working and expecting God's timely intervention.

Waiting unto God is forging ahead in the midst of threatening challenges and temptation without a doubt about God's salvation (Lam5:20; Psalm130:5,6)

 

WHY SHOULD WE WAIT ON HIM ?


It's pertinent to patiently wait unto the Independent Immortal God beacuuse of His Unequalness, Steadfastness,

Reliability, Certainty, Faithfulness.

  

With Him, all things are  possible. He is always eager and ready to  assist the righteousness. He retrieves and gives power


He does His things with timeness for those that believe in Him. He doesn not come too early, or late. 

He is always on alertness and  sensitive to fight for those waiting unto Him because He is omnipotent, omniscience, omnisapient.


There may be challenges such as barreness, failure, enemies, sickness, marital problem etc. just wait on Him, patiently. He would save you because He is a Good Saviour.


Men are independent of God, many are desperate in their ungodly act and at end of the day, they find theirself in big problem (Psalm119:67,68).


Dont allow what you're passing through now to demote you spiritually i.e don't let your challenges lure you away from God. Wait patiently/gently on God for from Him, your salvation comes. 


In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength. Are you in Lagos? Worship with us, this Sunday at

Calculating Actualities




 Luke 14:28 

One thing is a key characteristic of darkness, and it is Confusion. Many things face us; as a technique of fight.. against us from the Devil, as Christians but one prominent amongst many and it is ‘CONFUSION’ 


We sometimes take excuse for Confusion to be ‘Ignorance’, but forgetting that John 16:8 ‘... He will expose the ‘error’ of the godless world’s view of sin...’ (The Message Bible version). In this Bible passage, note the word ‘expose error’.  To get a good understanding of this content, it is necessary to digest everything about the Holy Spirit. 

• God wants us to be knowledgeable; infact the Bible states that if any lacks knowledge He/She can ask from God. That means there is a free space for us to as for wisdom from God; and Why ask wisdom from God... Wisdom not just for academic use, or for any field of career alone, not just for the vineyeard of God alone as well.. But there is another field you must apply wisdom and that is— Calculating Acutalities. 

• This is not Mathematics 😁; but Real-Life Statisitcs. Actuality means ‘What is, in reality’ what actually exists! I support the teachings of ‘Faith’ as states in the Bible,but yet you have to know how to ‘Calculate Actualities’.

•Calculating Actualities is never telling you to limit God or becoming Faith-less or to begin depending on your might... But you just cannot sit and build on what is not, in reality. Consider that God- approves ‘Faith’ as a life hack for us to live our lives with.. But also, consider different times and situations where God also calculated Actualities. He looks through the earth, from time to time and examine things well before taking any actions. He calculates well before sending any vessel, before working out who and what to use/do.

•Farmers knows exactly How/What/Where/When to work out plantings each season! Even a King sits to calculates, same as a builder who will sit and calculate.

•You just must Sit, Calculate, Arrange, if you wouldn’t run bankrupt, or regret, or do more than your ability.. You must Calculate. And choose wisely!Z

CHRISTIAN DISCIPLESHIP

Mark 3:14, John 14:15, Mark 8:34 To disciple means to 'direct', to 'coordinate',or to 'guide' a person or persons. It is also possible that yu have other meanings as to what discipleship means,But right here this content wants you to take a look at any other word that as well explains discipleship ,likewise establishes a concrete meaning and helps us to point understanding in the very perfect context;and that word is "Mentoring/Mentorship"! 

YEA, let's move... Everyone, at some point needs to undergo mentorship. Well, if you ask me why I'd simply put that: You want to dive, sail, and not sink.. You want to 'live' , then you gotta to 'learn' first! and like it's said "No Crown, No Glory".. then the same way:

 

 To live without so much 'scar', you need to learn to the 'process' from another. At certain spots in your life, you will definitely need to be mentored. to get a degree is good, To start and make success at your job, business, project is sweet, To say generally: Success is a good thing.. but before then you need someone to put you through, introduce you, advice you, help you, show you... this mentorship is what "Refines" and "Redefines" us into a Pro, into that person that can go confidently and 'commence' start a fresh kingdom. 

Believer; God loves to use Men to perform and show His glory, Yet God loves 'skilled' hands to handle His works. check and see the lives of Men whom God used in The Bible; they'd gone through 1 or 2 processes before they became useful vessels in the hands of God. 

 See David (I Samuel 17:33-37), Read about Moses (Exodus 2:18, 3) Moses was already familiar with tendering the flock and even the environment (wilderness) before He started leading the Israelite, See Samuel, Elisha... God employs vessels who are experienced, who have served and are trusted, who are tried and verified. Not those who are half baked, amateur, coward, lazy, cold, short-sighted... 

Do you have prayeras  'muscles', you have Faith as 'shield', you have righteousness as your 'breast-plate' you still need to be tutored and come to much understanding and experience.

Become fashioned and tailored into that grown Christian, LEARN, stay at your post of TRAINING, and FINISH.. Don't rush😊👬👊

LOCKED BUILDINGS BECOME CHURCH AGAIN AS WE REOPEN

 

ugust 08, 2020

The wall of Jericho has fallen and locked buildings become church again as there is huge progress in defeating COVID19 in Nigeria and around the World. In March 2020, the Government of Nigeria ordered the closure of worship centres "buildings" in effort to eradicate the spread of the pandemic that hits the World. 

Day after day passed with the buildings under lock but the church is never locked as we believe and understand that "the church is not a building but a congregation of Christians" which may sometimes be our respective homes, places of work or anywhere, as the case may be or  the need arises just as the case of the lockdown. Family fellowships, social media channels were resolved to, to glorify God

Heaven declares the glory of God God; skies proclaim the work of His hands. Day after day pour forth speech; night after night display knowledge. There is no speech or language where their voice is not heard. Their voice goes out to all earth; their words to the end of the World (Psalm 19:1-4a). We always join our voices with that of the heaven to declare His glory; with the skies to proclaim the work of His hands, and these are loud and clear to all earth and ends of the World for the glory of God because He will never share His glory with anyone.


The Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on Saturday, August 1, 2020, during a press briefing on COVID-19, at the State House, Marina Lagos, made disclosure of reopening of worship centres. He said that religious leaders must make available hand sanitizers, thermometer guns and ensure that social distancing is maintained.


The Governor in his statement said, “Places of worship in Lagos will now be opened from Friday, August 7 for our Muslim worshippers and on Sunday, August 9 for our Christian worshippers.


“We will only be allowing 50% of their capacity at either the church or the mosque. Churches that have Saturday worship day will also be allowed to start holding their Saturday worship. We must reiterate that places of worship are only permitted to have their regular once a week service on designated days.’’


In respect to the order of Lagos State Government, we wish to inform all the Jesus family that all our worship centres would be opened for service from 7:00 am on Sunday 9th August, 2020 on 50% capacity in line with the State Government regulations. It is also pertinent to note that wearing of face mask is a necessity; washing of hands with soap and water and/or sanitizing the hands with sanitizers at the entrance of the church as this shall be the mode of operation till further instruction is received .


May the grace of God be with us forever. See you on Sunday  @ THE GOOD SAVIOUR BIBLE CHURCH

A Little Knowledge Is Dangerous

Hosea 4:6 Proveebs 24:5

Knowledge is indeed power, BUT the powers in knowledge is in complete knowledge and practice. 
A little knowledge is rather a dangerous thing. 
Please 🙏 read along, as you get an illustration with this brief story.

  On a hot summer noon, some camel men stayed beneath a bunch of tree for some rest. They set their camels to graze. One of the families entered into a melon field and started eating the melons. And by chance a melon got jammed in the camel’s throat. The animal began to make noise, the owner saw it and he understood what had happened.
   The owner quickly got a blanket and wrapped it on the neck of the camel and hit it with a wooden mallet. Then the melon broke and the camel swallowed easily. 
  A passerby saw the whole process and what had happened; He thought the camel owner had cured the footer of the camel. He was happy to learn the treatment for goiter. 
  Then this man went to his own village and introduced himself as a physician who can treat goiter. 
An old lady with goiter came to this man to get treated, and the man did the same things the camel owner did (a blanket and a mallet...) 
But unfortunately as a result of a hard blow, the old lady died. The villagers laid old of the quack physician and handed him over to the police.


This scenarios plays around all the time, in one way or the other. A lot of people administer medications they know little or nothing about which can lead to severe complications. 
Some people have tried to answer questions they know nothing about and it has landed them into serious troubles. 
Some people have ventured into business activities, projects, constructions they know nothing about.

It is a great thing to be a believer, baptized and living a renewed life, Oh Yes.. But it is a necessity to not be satisfied with shallow understandings but thirst after immense knowledge. 
‘In all thy getting..’
Get knowledge, large amount of it.

With God
