Christ At The Center


The key to a victorious life is to have Jesus at the very center. It is only when Jesus is at the center of my life that I will have the peace of God. When Christ is at the center of my life, it means He has the highest priority and I do all things to please Him. Whether I eat and drink I will then do all for His glory. Many of us are not experiencing joy in the Lord because even though we go to church, self is at the center of our lives. We do everything to please self at the expense of Christ. How to put Christ at the center of my life is our topic for today

Our hearts have place for only one ruler🤴🏾! Either Jesus or self will rule my heart. We all were born with self as the ruler of our hearts. You can see in a new born baby. A baby has no concern for the welfare of his mother. A baby only cares about me. I want milk and I want it now! I want to sleep and I want to now. All humanity are selfish in nature and unless there is a profound transformation in the heart, unless Christ comes in and overthrow the tyrant self from the throne of my heart, I will live life only to please myself. Even the good I do will be about pleasing self or promoting self.
We are all selfish by nature 

How do I know if self is enthroned in my heart 🤴🏾? I know self is enthroned in my heart when I am my highest priority. When what I want and need are my driving force. I want to go there, I want to marry this person, I want to divorce my spouse, I want to buy this house, I want to cut off this friend, I want to be happy, I I I, it's all about my want, my needs and my desires. The desires of God only comes into play if it will help my desires. So I go to church because I think God will bless me. I pray because I want something from God. I want God to be the vehicle for my success. When self is in charge, disaster will surely follow 

But when Christ is at the center my life will experience a revolution. Now before I do anything, I will go to the Lord and ask for His counsel and guidance. How do I know when Christ is at the center of my life ? It is when I'm looking for a spouse 👰🏽 and say Lord, I want a spouse, make me ready for one and choose one for me when the time is right and help me be a blessing to my spouse . Lord I want a job, prepare me for one, choose one for me and help to be a witness for you there . Lord I have plan to move there, but only allow it of it will please you. Lord, help me to dress in a way that pleases you. Lord, help me to eat healthy because my body is your temple. 

Lord, keep me from sinning against you for I am yours and your mines and  I want to be faithful to you ❤.  I know Christ is at the center of my life because when I'm having a good day I say thank you Jesus and when I am having a bad day I say help me Jesus. Christ is at the center of my life when I involved Him in every decision that I make whether big or small. Christ is at the center of my life when it's no longer I that live but Christ who lives in me. As I involve the Lord in all that I do, then self is being dethroned and Christ is being enthroned 🤴🏾, now His peace will flow through my life because His kingdom of peace is reigning in my soul. Christ at the center is the  way to peace


Galatians  2:20
I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

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...
