Are you praying?

Matthew 17:20-21 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.


Whenever things are not going well, as children of God, we need to pray.  Life has many tests and trials it presents, but the only way out for is pray.


The greatest moves of God this world has seen have been because of prayer. Prayer makes one sensitive to the things of God and contend for them to happen. It causes one to laser focus on the things of God and less on the things of the world. It causes one to see value in spiritual things over natural things. It causes one to spend and be spent for what matters most, the things of God. 


Prayer is for us a mountain mover. Things that shouldn't have been an issue usually become issues in our lives because of the neglect of prayer. Hills become mountains when we don't pray and mountains become Hills when we pray. 


Prayer moves you from the realm of the natural into the realm of the supernatural. The realm of the natural and the flesh is the devil's domain. You don't need a lot of faith to do the day to day tasks of life. But you need prayer to quicken your faith so that you accomplish great things for God. Thus, overcome the weakness of the flesh and the devil in the realm of the spirit through prayer.  


Without prayer,  people will make a big deal of small things, which shouldn't matter, thus leading to the breaking of key relationships,  business contacts, and important spiritual connections.  But by prayer, people walk in love with one another. By prayer, a man achieves more than they would have achieved without prayer.


Prayer ought to be your priority. You know the power that lies in prayer, but are you praying?

Justified by faith

Romans 5:1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: God has made us right with Himself. This is extremely good news because we could not measure up to His standard of righteousness portrayed by the law.  Most religions including some who profess Christianity advocate for a "do right and be right with God" kind of relating with God. This puts the burden of salvation upon the performance of the adherents to such religions. On the other hand true Bible faith, says believe right and then be made right with God independent of your actions. All this is because of God's goodness who wants all to be saved whether they have any previous morally good life or not. If you really get a revelation of this you would burst for joy and rejoice in what God has made you instead of what you can do for Him, hallelujah! It all starts with faith. If you believe you are justified or are forever made just before him, it affects your life in a certa...

When a heart(soul) heals

Many hearts are wounded, broken, sick, depressed, bleeding but when the heart of a man heals, they start to live again. That man starts to blossom, to dream again, to shine brighter and to love again. Psalm 34:18, But the Lord is close to the broken hearts, to the wounded, frustrated ones, He is always there. Surprisingly many people are broken hearted and they don't know what to do. Because of the failure they have experienced before, they face shame and as a result they choose to hide themselves. Some end up committing suicide since they feel hopeless and their dreams beyond reach.  If you happen to be in this situation first and foremost you need to forgive yourself, release that anger and let go of the past. Secondly you need revelation of your identity in Christ. If you aren't born again, you need to first surrender to Jesus as Lord. God is more willing to heal your heart(soul) and your story than you do. All He needs is our consent and cooperation. Let go and let God.  T...

A year of good things

Image
Matthew 7:11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him? Years represent new seasons. Every season God has a specific word for us His children that we need to run with. When we run the year based on that Word, our results will be evident. In this season as the Streams of life and Nations churches God gave us a word through our Father Bishop Gerald Mwebe that we are going to have good things.  Last year 2025, was a year of great grace. This year God prophetically is giving us good things. One of the good things He has already given us is the gospel. The gospel is the message we preach and live by. We need to realise as believers that we have a message which will touch lives not only in this world but for eternity. The gospel is not only for non believers but for nonbelievers also. Many believers all they hear are the curses that follow them from the past generations....
