Some believers are always praying to God for “things” but failing to give themselves wholly to His calling upon their lives. That has resulted in many Christians living selfish lives, comprising “Give me, give me, God,” instead of giving diligence to their calling in Christ. Today, by the mercies of God, it’s a privilege to write concerning this issue in 2 Peter 1:5-7. Let’s delve deeper.
The devil has no good plans for you. He has a way of making you think there’s nothing wrong with the sin and likes bombarding you with so many temptations so you can fall for it. But hey, resist him. Speak God’s Word by divine authority and sack those evil thoughts away from your mind. It’s a war to do that, so never give up. And even if you fall, run to the Lord in repentance and speak to a trusted friend in the Lord to help you out. But after your healing, don’t go back to it. Lay aside every weight and always ask for grace to cover every area of your life.
I want to tell you that there is a process between the time you pray when God reveals His promise to you in bits and when you see those promises materialise. You can’t get everything God promises you the moment He reveals to you. It takes time to fulfil a promise you make to someone, even as a human. How much more God?
Jesus’ model for handling ministerial work was to appoint and train people before sending them out. That’s what I call – gather to scatter. Delve deeper into this study in this article.
God, in His mighty power, has bestowed upon each of His children everything they need for life and godliness. This is an incredible truth, isn’t it? Yet, why do many believers find life challenging? It’s because there’s a process to access the provisions God has made. Delve deeper in this study.
Tongues speaking helps you connect deeper to God, and it’s a very powerful way of silencing every distraction around you as you pray. God, having seen that your connection with Him in prayer is well established, will speak.

God loves you, and it is not everything He will tell you to do that is meant for the whole world to see. People-pleasing is not your goal. So don’t settle for it.
Amongst the many enemies believers have, the chief is the devil. He has no love, pity or sense of humour. Even in John 10:10, Jesus said clearly that this devil exists just to steal, kill and destroy. In this study scripture article, we will delve deeper into what the Apostle Paul wrote concerning this devil. After reading this article, I pray that you will know how to give no chance to the devil in your faith journey.
In Christ, despite your problems, it is possible to live being anxious for nothing. But it’s possible through prayer.
It’s understandable that because knowledge has increased in this generation, the young generation may be more exposed to much more information and light from scripture. But God’s word says the younger should submit to the elder. Why? Because such a grown man may have experiences in life the young generation doesn’t have. So, for the young to listen to them, they could avoid certain mistakes. However, no young person can obey this scripture if one doesn’t clothe oneself in humility. Here’s how submission and humility go hand-in-hand.
Nothing is a waste to God when you serve Him. And the more you serve, the greater your reward. That is what it means to store up treasures in heaven for yourself.
