Proverbs 24:33‭-‬34 Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep: So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth; and thy want as an armed man.‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬

The word of God is the wisdom of God. And when you embrace God’s word instead of your prejudiced mind, you will be set on high. Our opening scripture is very clear: if you are lazy, poverty will be your friend. Poverty and slothfulness goes together. I have never seen a lazy rich man. All rich men are all diligent in their business.

Laziness has no place in the world of riches. Proverbs 24:30‭-‬31 says, “I went by the field of the slothful, and by the vineyard of the man void of understanding; And, lo, it was all grown over with thorns, and nettles had covered the face thereof, and the stone wall thereof was broken down.” The lot of the sluggard is thorns. Thorns according to scripture is a picture of the curse. All lazy men are under the curse of poverty. And the only cure to it is not prayer but diligent labour.‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬

PREACH MORE OF GOD'S LOVE

PREACH MORE OF GOD'S LOVE

1 John 4:16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

Our world is bankrupt of God’s love. I am not talking about Hollywood or Nollywood love – these kinds of love are all bankrupt – they are not real; they are all based on performance. I am referring to the God kind of love. This kind of love is unconditional and unmerited – and it only originates from God.

God loves us so much that He sent His only beloved Son into this sinful world to die for sinful, wicked, and undeserving men, who did not even care about Him. Jesus’ death on the cross is the greatest demonstration of God’s love to man. Jesus said, greater love has no man than a man should lay down his life for his friends. Jesus loved you so much that He died and paid the penalty for your sins and delivered us from sin.

ARE YOU IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD

ARE YOU IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD

John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

Some people think it is when you get to heaven before you are in the kingdom of God. That’s a big lie from hell. This is what has fuelled this teaching about who will make it to heaven – people trying to live right in order to get into heaven. And some people boast that they will go to heaven because the have lived right – they even condemn other believers who are not living right that they are on their way to hell.

The day you got born again you were removed from the kingdom of darkness which is the kingdom of satan into the kingdom of God (Colossians 1:13). This experience happens instantly – the moment one gets born again he enters into the kingdom of God. And this happens because you put faith in Jesus and what He did for you in His finished work.

CHOOSE YOUR FRIENDS WISELY

Proverbs 22:24‭-‬25 Make no friendship with an angry man; and with a furious man thou shalt not go: Lest thou learn his ways, and get a snare to thy soul.‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬

Several years ago, I visited a friend. The moment the father saw me, he did not even allow me to even sit down; then he asked, how did you get to know my son? I was taken aback. Then I said, we met at a quiz competition. Then he said, you are welcome. I have never forgotten that experience. The man was being careful of who was a with his son and influencing him – he was protecting his investment. As we speak, that friend is now a medical doctor.

Look at the opening scripture in the Amplified translation: Do not even associate with a man given to angry outbursts; Or go [along] with a hot-tempered man, Or you will learn his [undisciplined] ways And get yourself trapped [in a situation from which it is hard to escape]. PROVERBS 22:‬24‭-‬25 AMP‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬

PROTECT YOUR MIND

Proverbs 4:23 Carefully guard your thoughts because they are the source of true life. CEV

When I was a young Christian, most of the teachings we were exposed to were about demons and their activities. We were made conscious of the devil more than Christ. Every now and then you get to church it is about some devil on some street or somewhere in the sea. We left church so conscious of the devil.

Nearly every prayer point was concerning the devil and his works. I even realised when you raised a prayer point that is not about the devil, people didn’t pray fervently. But the moment you raised a prayer point about the devil and witches, the fervency of the prayers went through the roof. I remember in one particular meeting, the fellow leading the prayer said, I can see some demons around this place. Why didn’t these folks see Christ but always devils?
