AGRACIOUS PLAN FOR YOUR LIFE

After a minister had spoken on the subject why I believe in Jesus, a well dressed young man paid a visit in his study and remarked, your talk was interesting, but every thing you said about Christ came out of your bible, tell me if Jesus ever lived on this earth, ''that’s a fair question, the minister answered as he turned and took down several books.

As the minister thumbed through all history of the life of Jesus, the young man fortified his heart and attention on the explanation, the minister assured him about the great love of God because he gave his son as a ransom for our sins. 

The great pain he bared at Calvary and conquered them all, he his not took weak to save you from your distress. Believe in Christ, your plans in this life will succeed with their objectives.

THE POWER OF EVANGELISM

For am not ashamed of the gospel, for it’s the power of God for salvation to every one who believes, for in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith (Romans 1:16)

Gladly is the good work of evangelism. We get a clear picture of what evangelism is as we review the activities of the first evangelists. Regardless of the major differences between their generation and ours, both worlds were sinful, fallen and despair, and thus in need of hope and salvation. 

The total conversion of Paul shows the power which attends those who decide to evangelize for God. In order for any one to keep his faith alive in God, he must share the good news about Jesus. 

Brethren therefore, never get ashamed of proclaiming the gospel of the messiah; he is the first and the last, the beginning and the end. And Jesus himself, who is not human to deceive, promised us our reward in heaven. MAY THE GRACE OF GOD BE WITH YOU AS YOU FULFILL HIS PROMISE IN JESUS NAME, AMEN

                     

NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE IF YOU TRUST IN THE LORD

After many years that I spent in an open Job seeking with the bachelors’ degree in mass communication, and the countless loses I have made to my parents, my village, and the country at large; 

I started farming on a small piece of land basically in tomato growing that also turned out to be nothing, but dangerous and challenging.

The first 5 consecutive seasons were entirely loses. 

Nevertheless, my weakness and defects made me a delightful, brave, capable, practical minded human being, full of sense of humor and honor.

Now every after 3months, I harvest more than 200 boxes of tomatoes summing up to $ 50,000 minimum amount. However the progress has been gradual; But even though, my worst weaknesses and defects for years have been compensated.

FROM GUILTY SINNER TO FORGIVEN SAINT

There were no finger prints, no one saw the murderer enter the office of the doctor. No one even heard the shots ring out, but the doctor was found sprawled behind his desk. 

Five bullets had pierced his shirt, it seemed the perfect crime, the police at first could not find any clues but then they noticed a tiny wire attached to a pencil holder on the doctors desk, the wire led to a tape recorder in a desk drawer. 

The investigators quickly rewound the tape and to their amazement, begun to listen to a reply of the actual crime. After the police investigation, I was imprisoned; while in prison, there I met an evangelist preaching the gospel of forgiveness and repentance. His messages were so touching and I did not know that I can be pardoned for my many sins. 

Miraculously, at the end of the crusade, he preached about the times of ignorance that God overlooked and now he commands all people every where to repent, he quoted it from the book of [Acts 17:30]. From that time up to- date, I accepted Jesus as my personal savior through baptism. And I learnt that Jesus can forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 

There may be some one as I was thinking that his sins can’t be pardoned according to human wisdom; truly I say unto you, unless you hear the sound of the trumpet announcing the second coming of the king of kings, your sins can’t be pardoned. The door is still open for you to repent and follow Jesus [1 John 1:9].

HERO OF FAITH

Living in a time when the world makes heroes of athletes, actors and other so-called celebrities of every sort, it is so difficult for some one to become a hero of faith. It’s much like the difference between God’s wisdom and human wisdom.

While at campus, students were lovers of themselves, boastful, abusive, and unforgiving, without self control, deceiving and being deceived, lovers of pleasures rather than God. The situation went from bad to worse when they passed a law to make all the so- called saved speechless. In this case, I was excluded from taking part in any university activities and assembly.

Two reasons were given for the exclusion:  First we as Christians did not show compassion to the lovers of themselves (same sex) when they needed it. Second, we were so slanderous and disobedient to the university council. 

And therefore heavy punishments such as forced homosexuality, biting you in case you are found worshiping God, and others which I can’t even tell by my tongue were imposed on any one who deliberately breaks the law.

Many of my fellow Christians lost the battle in the process. But in spite of plaguing brutal punishments and challenges once to the point of losing my life, I stick led on the truth as written in the bible [Isaiah 40:31] “but they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint”.

At last, I got inside the hearts of many un holy students at campus because of my strong faith in JESUS, best of all many accepted Jesus as their personal savior. You too can be a hero of something you love and trust, irrespective of what challenges that may come your way.
