When you spoke, the smoke of your language went up and you saw some impurities inside the words you spoke. Why? Because your inside does not have a cleanser any more. Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you (John 15:3). Which word have you heard from Jesus? How can you be clean? Why wouldn’t polluted words come out of you? Why wouldn’t broken bottles of lies be seen around you? It is natural. This is a natural formula, but your case is serious because you have been a noble man; a well-respected personality in Christ. The Bible says, “Be ye perfect!” With all the reputation you had, with all the honour, will it not be shameful t...

God’s kind of love is strange to this world and they are opposed to it. The world is harsh to it but you must carefully preserve and maintain it. You must fight to keep it. You must train your heart to it. In church, in the family and among ourselves, we are to have the God-kind of love. Many things come to block this kind of love because the enemy does not want it. You must reconcile with your brother if you want to promote this kind of love. You must clear whatever has blocked your relationship with anyone. Go to him or her and remove the blockage; otherwise, it will reduce your love to pretentious love. You must summon courage to discuss everything over. When a cloud covers the sun, the sun's brightness is deemed. So it is...

It didn’t go beyond that. It ended with the use of the tabernacle. In fact, it was not the anointing oil used for normal rubbing of the body. It was not the anointing oil used as a healing balm. In today’s key verse, we see the Lord instruct that nobody makes any other like it. God gave this specific commandment because He had foreseen replication and abuse of the anointing oil. Anointing oil was never used to anoint any prophet in Israel. Moses was not anointed with oil. Joshua who took over from him was not anointed with oil. ...

One can easily see and say, “This man is righteous in his ways; I know this man; I am very convinced. Everybody is singing it and the Lord is giving consent to it. Even though it happens like that, it is not every person that falls into that category. There are some righteous people around you that have done great things for God and you may not be aware of all they have sacrificed and done for the Kingdom of God, but God knows.  Is He not the One that says, “When you fast anoint yourself; let it not be known to men that you are fasting but let it be known to your Father who sees in secret and will reward you openly?” When you pray, pray in yo...

Meanwhile, it is not physical buildings Jesus is coming for. He is coming for the souls of men, and we must watch over the souls of men to ensure they remain righteous and holy. We must not overburden these people, lest they die and go to hell. Therefore, why are you embarking on projects upon projects upon projects, just to kill people? Just to take away righteousness from people and put murmuring into their mouth? Didn’t you hear God say He loves a cheerful giver? Preach the gospel message to the people and pray to God to give you money. The Lord on his own will raise up people to bear the burden; those who have the resources will stand up for the p...

As I waited, I saw a cigarette seller and was tempted to smoke. As I made to go and buy, my mind told me if you smoke you will be smelling cigarettes. Another voice said if you drink soda water nobody will know, so I looked for soda water but could not get one. Meanwhile, I was still waiting for a commercial vehicle to Kwali, so I walked a bit forward and asked for soda water. As I was about paying for it, I heard a shout of “Kwali, Kwali,” which signaled...

My wife later stopped coming to church and I asked her why. She said she had joined Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide (HOREMOW). I still continued going to Living Faith Church but even as I did, I was living in sin. Over time, I began to observe changes in the lifestyle of my wife and children. Inwardly, I was very happy but I hid my joy. Anytime they told me that they wanted to go for Holiness Movement programme I was happy and would gladly remove money from my pocket and give to them. 1 Peter 3:1 Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any o...
