Love and Grace, a good foundation

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.


What attracted you to Christianity? Was it the healing, prosperity or just the hype that the evangelist painted for you that day? Some come for all reasons you may think of including getting good spouses! However much all those seem meaningful, but the number one thing that attracts us to the Lord is His Love and Grace for us.


Love and Grace is the foundation we base our belief on. Without them, everything else seems meaningless. I compare it to a woman and a man who are in a marriage relationship. The foundation for that union ought to be the right one else if it's not the right one, everything else will fall apart. Some accept a hand in marriage for all the wrong reasons. Some state money, looks, the figure, family background etc. However important they may be, they cannot cause one to hang into the marriage when there is a shaking. I have seen many put up a glorious wedding day only to call it quits months or a few years into the marriage union. And you wonder why they cried for a glorious wedding in the first place. I have heard many assert that they want good decorations, nice pics bla bla bla. When the rubber meets the road, they even cannot think back on such things but simply move out of the union and all we know that the former things were vanity. They prepared for the wedding day but they didn't prepare for the marriage. The devil has tried as much to water down this important principle by convincing p


The foundation for all the things you will ever embark on which will last the times and tests you may face is love and  grace. They are the core. Other things are secondary. With or without the secondary elements, the relationship can stand. Rethink about the your basis of your relationship with Jesus today, better set it right early on for you have a long journey ahead of you.

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....
