The need for community 👥

 The Christian life is not easy. It is a battle and a March. And in every battle we need others to help us along. An army is not made up of one man 💂🏽‍♂️, an army is a community of people, who are together, fighting for a common goal.

You need a community. The idea of going it alone is not Christian, God made us social creatures. The Lord said " it is not good that man should be alone ", this does not simply refers to marriage but to life. We were designed for relationships, for community. The Christian life is about relationships, community 

It was when Eve was alone that the Devil 🐍 was able to tempt her and overcome her and so it is when Christian isolate themselves from community that the Devil is able to tempt them and destroy their faith. Show me a Christian who isolate him or herself and  you will see  someone who will soon apostasize

Community keeps us accountable, community strengthen us, community encourages us, community teaches us how to have relationships with others, community remove selfishness from us because we have to deal with people who are different, who see things differently from us. Those who reject community are easy prey for the Devil 😈

Friends, as we are living in these last days, many will become apostate, will abandon the assembly of the brethren and be easy picking for the Devil. But as for you, pray God for a godly community. Wherever you go, seek to develop spiritual communities, link up with people, do Bible study together, engage in activities together and you will grow spiritually. 

Dont fight against the Devil alone,  God wants us to fight together, to strengthen one another in the battle against sin. Jesus say abide in Him, He is the vine and we are the branches, all who are Christ's disciples will be part of a community, but all who reject godly community will find themselves withering slowly away from Christ and fellow believers 

So friends, pray for a godly  community, make friends with other Christians, have Bible study with other Christians, have weekly fellowship with them,share the struggles of the week with them and you will find yourself encouraged, strengthen in your walk with Christ. Do not forsake the assembly of the brethren, build communities.

A new Constantine: Will Trump become more religious ?

 On October 28, 312 AD, the battle of the Milvian bridge took place between Roman Emperors Constantine I and Maxentius. Rome was in the midst of a civil war . Constantine won the battle and started on the path that led him to become the sole ruler of the Roman empire. But something interesting happened before the battle, Constantine who was a pagan at the time claimed to have received a vision from God. On October 27 with the armies preparing for battle, Constantine claimed to had a vision which led him to fight under the protection of  the Christian God. According to the message of Eusebius of Ceasarea, around noon, Constantine saw a luminous cross in the sky and under it the inscription in Greek," in this sign thou shalt conquer. " Constantine also claimed to had a dream in which Christ commanded him to use the sign of the cross against his enemies. Constantine became the first emperor to convert to Christianity.  He ended the policy of persecuting Christians and in 313...

The difficulties of love

 Love is a beautiful thing. Love makes life worth living. Love is best thing in the universe because God is love 😍. We all want love, we all want to be loved and many of us want someone to love. Love is very precious indeed. We sing about love, we write about it and we make movies about it. And yet love is the most difficult thing to find in this earth. It is easier to find diamonds and gold than to find true love. Easier maybe to find the lost city of Atlantis than to find genuine love. Many people have simply given up on love. They see the idea of loving and having someone to love them as fables for unwise and inexperienced children. Love is rare indeed. Why is it so hard to love or find love 🤔? The easiest answer is because we are imperfect. Being imperfect means we are broken, unable to perform the function we were made to do. Come with me on a journey of the difficulties of love. Imagine you meet someone, a man, a woman, the " love of your life." The woman is beautiful...

Second Beast of Revelation Revealed part 1

And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. Revelation 13:11 This prophecy speaks about a nation rising at the end of time that will seem to represent Christ but will actually be against Him. In this small study, we will reveal that nation. Below are some symbolic terms in prophecy needed in order to follow this study. Beast : a political entity, a state or empire Earth : symbolizes a place that is not heavily populated, unlike the sea. The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues."  Revelation 17:15 Horns : Horns represent kings and kingdoms, or governments. Daniel 8:21 Speak : is how a nation create laws, a nation speaks by its laws So now that we have these definitions, let us go and see which nation on earth that the Bible speaks of during the end of times. There is only one super power nation coming out from an...
