Children of Light in a Dying World

By Sammy Mbila

In this month of our “SUNRISE AND SUNSHINE” we must make a self determined effort to examine some core concepts about the Biblical Children of Light.

The word of God tells us in John 8:12 that God is Light! therefore if God is light everyone under God’s shadow is under the light and can safely be called a child of light. Mathew 5:14 says we are the light of the world so as Children in Dominion Mercy Seat we can boldly proclaim ourselves as “CHILDREN OF LIGHT” because we are God’s children before becoming the children of our biological parents.

The Bible says in Jeremiah 1:5 “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart…….” And in Psalm 139:13 the word of God tells us that “For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb”. In Mathew 19:14 Jesus said “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the Kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these”. In Luke 18:16 and Mark 10:14 Jesus made the same plea that Children should be allowed to come to HIM.

We must therefore examine some important assurances and commands from God for Children of Light in Dominion Mercy Seat.

We must:
1. Be a “Timothy” to our teachers and parents. Philippians 2:19-20
2. We must be a light to our friends in School especially those who do not believe in Jesus as Lord and Savior. Isaiah 49:6B
3. We must remain chosen. Isaiah 49:7
4. We must not fellowship with unbelievers. Ephesians 5:11
5. We must readily forgive. Mathew 18:2-4; Ephesians 4:32 and Colossians 3:13

You will have good success this 2016.

Remain blessed.
Shalom

Men who Know their God

By Daniel Sangoleye

Have you ever found yourself in a situation that makes you ask yourself question like; what is wrong with my Christian Life? Why do I have to be the victim? Why can’t I have joy like other Christians? 

If any of these questions sounds familiar to you, then you might want to re-evaluate your Stand with God; your understanding of Him and your relationship with Him.  John 16 33 “These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have over-come the world.” 

Christian life is not one without ups and down, and Christians are not people without hope. But our assurance is embedded in the word of God, Daniel 11:32 declared that “but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.”  

There is, the need for an understanding of the God we serve for our exploit. Knowing God also brings us closer Him, and when we are closer to him, we become spiritually strong and rest is guaranteed. Matthew 11:28 “Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” 

You will have good success this 2016.  
Remain blessed. 
Shalom.

Sir/Lady...Are you Jesus?

By Pastor 'Deji Adewale

“And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the wine will burst the skins, and both the wine and the wineskins will be ruined. No, he pours new wine into new wineskins” Mark 2:22

 We are seeing a dangerous trend of people just having lively emotional expe-riences (‘affections’), religiosity, attendance at churches, love for believers, etc. but these are not proofs of regeneration.

Many have had deep reli-gious experiences but their of faith later proved emp-ty. They were never true believers in the first place, but had simply copied the actions of those who were. I have no doubt that the Holy Spirit has regenerated many thousands of men and women. Equally,

I be-lieve many have come into the churches without tru-ly understanding what Christ has done for sinners. Spiritual ‘experiences’ do not necessarily signify regeneration. Not church membership, doing good deeds, or "trying" to be a Christian. We must change this 2016.

In spite of our confession of being born-again, many are not. We come to church every week to listen to His word, God has ordained that the preaching (telling, reading etc.) of His Word is the means by which a person is regener-ated. Man’s first birth is natural; his second birth is spiritual and supernatural. His first birth makes him a member of a fallen race; his second birth makes him a member of a redeemed race.

His first birth gives him a depraved nature; his second birth makes him partaker of the divine nature. The moment a person is born again he receives a new life and a new position as a child of God. In short, he is a new creature in Christ, the old has been done away with, behold the new. New way of life, new habits, new thoughts, speech, deeds…new wine in a new wineskin. You will have good success this 2016.

Remain blessed.
Shalom.
