STREAMS OF GREATNESS

WHEN A SERVANT OF GOD IS NOT DISCIPLINED WITH FOOD, HIS VALUE REDUCES BY ADEDIRE ADEKANBI I call discipline putting yourself under constraints, better put, restraining yourself. Paul said, all things are lawful but not all things are expedient. This line is also for you oh thou servant of God.  When you are not disciplined you loose touch with relevance and impact, and you become a common man to everyone. When you are seen every, just because of your insatiable appetite for everything that comes your way your value reduces gradually. For some it is food, just that four letter word FOOD. They can do anything and sacrifice anything for food. Some may even get to the ground of ministration, they are mounting the pulpit in the next 15 minutes, but will still try and rush the food prepared for them within 15minutes, they can’t just wait. Why didn’t they eat from home if they are that hungry. Some become so full, that anointing will not border to flow. Somethi...

WE MUST STAND OUT IN THIS DISPENSATION By Adedire Adekanbi For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears. Believe you me, we are now in the time, men wants to hear messages that please their souls, messages that will do nothing but massage their ideologies about holiness and righteousness.  They want to hear that it’s the heart that matters, the way they dress does not matter. I want to quickly remind us that our appearance reflects the state of our heart. We want to hear that we can continue to indulge in fleshly pleasures and yet enjoy God's grace. The bible says, What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid! Roman 6:1. We therefore crave to hear from fallen Pastors who will give us fables, turn the bible upside down and tell us it doesn’t matter. The devil has simplified certain sins before us so that we no longer think they ...

NEVER BE AFRAID OF TAKING THE FIRST STEP, IT'S EXACTLY YOUR SIZE  BY ADEDIRE ADEKANBI A girl went to the market in the company of the mother to get a shoe. On getting to the market, she sighted a shoe with bright colours and went closer. She admired the shoe and then told the mum, "I don't think this shoe will size me, it looks too big for me".  Then the mum said to her, "You can't conclude it's not your size or too big until you try it on." The daughter argued for long but later tried it on and she realized it was exactly her size. It looked big on the outside, but on getting inside, realized it was just meant for her. You don't know how strong you are until being strong is all that you are left with. You will never know how much strength you have until you face it... yeah! you know it. The devil tells you you can't, but that's a lie from the pit of hell. Everyone at the top of their game today had to take up the...

TOUGHNESS IS REQUIRED BY ADEDIRE ADEKANBI When the going gets tough, the great gets going. Giving in to tough times is an experience of weaklings and men who often wait for external determinants before they step into their next level. When we faint in the day of battle, our strength is small. Small strength equate spiritual myopia. Spiritual shortsightedness is dangerous and causes men to faint. When your greatness is as real to you as God, not only in your imaginations, but you are persuaded and certain of what you are seeing, it is very unlikely for you to faint.  Reason being that there is inside of you a God running engine, you don’t need motivation from people to keep on taking steps. There is a life giving force in operation in you which is the spirit of God. Majority of us want to be motivated by external factors before we move forward and cross the red sea. I pray you will always have a Moses but there is a deeper stage and realm. You must be pers...

THE ROOT SYSTEM: YOUR ROOT WILL SURELY BE TESTED  BY ADEDIRE ADEKANBI I want to quickly talk about two kinds of Christians: The surface Christian and Rooted Christians. The surface christian is one who remains as soon as everything go as planned, they have shallow root, they remain standing as long as there is no opposition. They have inadequate access to the source of nutrient needed to remain, they are short lived.  Most of the times, they make the loudest noise, only to fall when the flood comes. They are inconsistent and undependable, they only profess Christ as soon as the goodies flow, they are short sighted, they cannot see beyond now. They only live for today, they have no capacity to conceive a vision for the future, they are in Christ for their selfish gain.  They are tossed to and fro by every wave of doctrine. They do not have the stamina to endure hardship, they pull of their skirt in other to get a job because they have waited ...

YOU ARE A RARE GEM, SIMPLY PRICELESS  In this age where ladies/ women are swept off their feet by ephemerals, thank God we still have ladies/ women who have the picture of where they are going in their hearts/mind and are not ready to trade glory for a piece of cake. I salute all the women/ladies who are determined, resilient and relentless, they know the sacrifices of today will pay off tomorrow. I congratulate the women/ ladies who will never boycott the holy spirit to take decisions that will invite calamity into their lives. I am grateful to God for the women/ ladies who are not running after the wrapper, neglecting the content. Oh yes! They are not putting all efforts on the outward while the inward man perisheth. Blessed are the women/ladies who are not running after the latest fashion, yet void of the next move of God in their lives. Kudos to the women/ladies who have the understanding that their destiny is not in hands of any man and t...

STRENGTH LIKE NO OTHER  BY ADEDIRE ADEKANBI You are my strength, strength like no other. Strength like no other reaches to me......... In times of weakness, the strength of God uphold us. When we lose hope, it renews our faith and makes it come alive. It empowers us to do greater works. Indeed God's strength is like no other. The devil tries to offer us alternatives when we are in need. A fake duplicate that does nothing but places a heavier load upon our soul. He has lost the real thing, so he can't offer genuine strength. The strength of God is real and encompassing, embrace it. That period exam is so near and you feel you are not prepared. The strength of God shows up and keep our heart and soul in perfect peace. The strength of God flows from His Word to us. It flows from His presence  and invades us. It makes the weak strong and the depressed to rejoice. It quickens our spirit and infuses passion for God in us. It empowers us to overcome i...
