Are you ready?


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: ARE YOU READY?

It Is A Heavenly Time – The only One Who knows the timing of the Lord’s coming is the One Who planned His coming. God knows when these events will take place. He knows because He has planned the precise instant when Jesus will return to this earth.
God keeps this a secret because He does not want people caught up in an end times frenzy. He wants us to look for Him every day and He wants us to live for Him every day. He wants us to live like He might return at any moment and work like He is never coming back.

The fact is, God will not put a commercial on television to let people know that the end is near. He will not take a full page ad in the News-Topic, or any other periodical. He will not announce it on the radio, not will He drop flyers from the Heavens. We have the only warning we are going to get. The Word of God is clear: Jesus is coming! The pieces are all in place. The end times players are all lining up. The stage is set and the Father’s hand is on the rope. We are nearing the end of human history. Jesus is coming. The question you need to answer in your heart today is this: Are you ready?
LET US PRAY
Every power of darkness that is holding you back from following the part of truth is hereby destroyed in Jesus Name.

I am ready, what about you?


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: I am ready, what about you?

Mark 13:32 KJV
But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.

THE SECRECY OF HIS COMING
A. It Is A Hidden Time – Jesus is coming, but no one knows when that event will take place. When Jesus gave His men this prophecy, He told them that even He didn’t know the hour of His Own return. The point He is making is that it is foolish to try and set dates concerning the Lord’s return.
There was a retired NASA worker who wrote the book “88 Reasons Why Jesus Will Return In 1988.” He predicted that Jesus would return on either Sept. 11, 12, or 13. When the Lord didn’t return in 1988, he wrote a new book that declared the Lord would return in 1989. He didn’t come then either. No one knows the time when the Lord will return. There is no point in speculating about it.
But, while we are on the subject, let me just remind you that Jesus is talking about His Second Coming in these verses. He is actually talking about the second part of the Second Coming. Jesus is talking about the time He will come to defeat His enemies and rule on the earth. Did you know that He is coming back before that?
He will not actually set foot on the earth when he comes for the first part of the Second Coming, but He will appear in the clouds above the earth. We call this event the Rapture. It is predicted in John 14:1-3; 1 Thes, 4:16-18; 1 Cor. 15:51-52.
In the Rapture, Jesus will return in the clouds above the earth and He will call His redeemed people unto Him. Every saint of God who has died in faith in Christ will be with Him when He comes. He will raise their bodies from the grave, reunite body and spirit and take both home to Heaven. Every living child of God will be “caught up” in the air to be with Jesus. These sinful bodies will become like His glorified body. All the saved people from the resurrection to the Rapture will leave this world in the Rapture.
I am ready and looking for that event. How about you? Unlike the Second Coming, there will be no signs that will precede the Rapture. One minute the people of God will be here, and the next minute they will be with Jesus in Heaven. Those who are left behind will have to face the terror of the Tribulation.
If you are going to be ready for anything, be ready for the Rapture. If you are going to be looking for anything, be looking for Jesus in the Rapture. If you miss the Rapture, you will probably not be alive when Jesus comes the second time. If you are alive when He comes, you will face Him as Judge and not Savior. Your only hope is to be saved today! Come to Jesus now! Run to Jesus while there is time. Come while He calls you. Come now!

LET US PRAY
In Jesus Name, you will not die premature and you will not miss Heaven

Concluding Signs


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: Concluding Signs

Mark 13:30 KJV
Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass, till all these things be done.

Jesus says that the generation that witnesses these things will not pass away until they have all been fulfilled. This prophecy has been the subject of much debate down through the years.
One of the symbols of the nation of Israel is the fig tree, Jer. 8:13, 29:17; Hos. 9:10, 16; Joel 1:7; Micah 7:1-6. Thus, some people have concluded that Jesus is comparing saying that when the fig tree, or Israel, begins to show signs of life, that generation will witness the return of the Lord. Well, Israel became a nation again after 1,878 years on May 14, 1948. The nation was destroyed in 70 AD and ceased to exist. Some people believe the final generation began them. Of course, that was 61 years ago and a generation in the Bible is about 27 years.
Others believe that Israel began to put forth her leaves in 1967 after she defeated her Arab neighbors in the Six Days War. Of course, that was nearly 42 years ago.
Another school of thought holds that the word “generation”, which can refer to “a wicked race”, refers to the spiritual condition of Israel. In other words, Jesus could be saying, “The Jews will continue in their unbelief until I come.” This interpretation certainly fits with the facts. Israel is back in their land, and they have all the signs of life. Like a fig tree in the late spring, they are in full leaf. Still, they have no fruit. They have yet to bow to their Messiah.
In my opinion, all that Jesus is saying in verse 30 is the appearance of the signs he has mentioned will be a signal that the end is very near. As I said a few minutes ago, all the pieces are in place. Everything is lining up like Jesus said they would. He is coming! Are you ready?
C. v. 31 They Are Confirmed Signs – This verse is a simple confirmation that everything Jesus says will come to pass. The Word of God is an eternal book, Psa. 119:89. Every word in it will stand forever, Isa. 40:8. Every promise in God’s Word will be met, Deut. 4:21. Every prophecy will be fulfilled, Matt. 5:18.
What does this mean for us? It serves to remind us that we need to take the words of the Lord to heart! What He says will happen will happen. What He promises His will do. This is a call for people to believe the Bible!
Jesus says that He is the only way of salvation, John 14:6. Jesus says that there is a Heaven to gain and a Hell to shun, John 14:1-3; John 3:18. Those things are true and every person in this room will answer to them one day. Jesus also says that He is coming again, John 14:3. It is a promise that is as sure as the sun coming up in the morning and setting in the evening. Ready or not, here He comes!

LET US PRAY
In Jesus Name You will not die in sin, the lord will safe you from eternal damnation

Jesus is Coming


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC JESUS IS COMING

Mark 13:28-37

READY OR NOT, HERE HE COMES

One of the most memorable games from my childhood days is the game of hide and seek. On many occasions throughout the year. The children would usually start a game of hide and seek.
When the game started, someone was chosen to be “it”. A spot was chosen to be “base”. Whoever was “it” would stand at “base”, close their eyes and count to 100. The other players ran and hid. Then it was “its” job to find them before they could return to “base”. The game ended when everyone made it back to “base”, or when “it” found someone who was hiding. In the next game, the person who was caught became “it”.
The part of that game that still echoes in my mind is what “it” would say before he or she came looking for those who were hiding. “It” would always say, “Ready or not, here I come.” When “it” said that, you had better be ready, or you were going to be in trouble.
When I read this verses, that old childhood game came back to my memory. Jesus is telling His men that there will be a day when He will come again. That day will arrive whether people are ready or not.
This chapter began with the disciples asking Jesus about the end of time and about the signs accompanying that time period, v. 3-4. The rest of this chapter is spent answering their questions. These closing verses offer a few warnings that all people of all ages should take to heart. These warnings should especially be heeded by people who are living in these late hours of time.
Jesus is coming! Skeptics and scoffers deny that fact, but they can’t change the truth of it. Jesus is coming, and He is coming soon. This is not a childhood game! Eternity is at stake!

Ready Or Not, Here He Comes! There are warnings in these verses that should be heard and heeded by all of us. These verses are a challenge for the saints to be ready, and they are a call for the lost to get ready. Jesus is coming and you do not want to be found unprepared for that day.

In Jesus Name, you and me will not miss heaven, we shall not go to Hell

God's Provision is Daily


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: GOD’S PROVISION IS DAILY.

1 Kings 17:6, Matthew 6:11
Jesus while teaching His disciples to pray prayed that “Give us this day our daily bread”.

What God promised us is a daily provision. Unfortunately today, many out of greed are doing all sorts of evil things to secure 100years provision. Many are worrying so much on what they and their family will eat in 20years to come. what is wrong in this is when it comes from greediness and evil passion that make you cheat others of their wages to secure your own future.

Believe in God that He will bless the work of your hands to provide you and your family’s daily needs. God used a raven and a poor widow to daily feed Elijah.
He can do it for you only if you can put your trust in Him. Elijah and others in the Bible follow these principles and they all enjoy the divine provision of God. You too will enjoy this divine provision if you can follow these principles.

HINDERANCES TO DIVINE PROVISION * Doubt * Partial Obedience to God * Disobedience * Using Sense Knowledge * Tragedy All these hinder divine provision and you must pray them out of your life for the heaven of your divine provision to open.
I want you to note that a sinner cannot enjoy divine provision because Jesus say “It is not meet to take the children’s bread, and to cast it to dogs” Matthew 15:26.

LET US PRAY
As from now on, God will connect you to divine source of blessing that will be feeding you daily in Jesus Name

God's will for our prosperity


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: GOD'S WILL FOR OUR PROSPERITY

3John 1:2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

It is amazing how believers can subscribe to the dubious notion that God is probably not interested in their welfare. The nature of life is that it will throw several challenges of various types in our path but many have concluded that the challenges of their life must mean that there is divine approval for suffering. This is far from the truth!

In the scripture we find it written that God has great plans for us and I personally do not think that lack, despondency and insufficiency will make a good definition or synonym of great plans. Jeremiah 29:11 is abundant with meaning concerning the plans of God for you and your family. Never for once think that a God that takes good pleasure in giving good gifts unto His children will contradict Himself by willing a life of nakedness and want for His children. No! That cannot be the God of the bible.

Romans 8:32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

Consider the fact that God did not spare Jesus Christ His only begotten Son but relinquished Him just because of you. You will understand that He will not have difficulty giving less precious things that are unlike His Son to you. God is getting ready to give you your heart desires in this season. Debunk every thought that tries to persuade you that you should not expect great things to happen to you. That’s the voice of the enemy making an attempt to keep you contained.

But the devil is a liar! God has concluded plans to show up for you this season. His plans are good and not evil to give you an expected end. Definitely and most assuredly you will share your testimony before long in Jesus Name!

Jesus said “The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly” John 10:10.

Jesus came so that you may have and live a life of abundance. Don’t let the circumstances of your life or the economic environment delude you. You are part of Gods grand strategy to showcase His magnificence and wealth in these last days and you will not miss out in Jesus Name! God wants you to prosper! God wants you rich! He is not glorified by your lack and want. He wants you to live the best life not just a good one. Halleluyah!

In Jesus Name, you are blessed beyond curse,

Prosperity


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: PROSPERITY

Prosperity means having the ability to fulfil God’s destiny for your life and to bless others in God’s plan for them

That is what biblical prosperity is all about. In a sense the widow provided for Elijah, but really it was Elijah who provided for the widow! Biblical prosperity is having more than enough for your own needs so that you can supply the needs of others. Malachi chapter 3 promises you abundant blessing when you are faithful in giving – both in your tithes and your offerings.

Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house, and try me now in this,” says the LORD of hosts, “If I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you such blessing that there will not be room enough to receive it. Malachi 3:10 The plain fact about God’s provision is, the more you give, the more you receive! I am not suggesting that you should give with the selfish motive of gaining more yourself. But when you do give you receive back more and this means that you have even more to give next time. This is the principle of sowing and reaping.

What farmer sows seeds it is in order to reap a harvest! In 2 Corinthians, Paul writes that giving is like sowing, and when you sow you should expect a harvest of righteousness. This is not just the righteousness of doing the right thing, but it means taking care of the needs of others and providing for God’s work.

Notice it is the sowing of your finances that brings you both a financial harvest and the further harvest of righteousness that comes from blessing others out of God’s abundant provision for you.

As you read these verses from 2 Corinthians, notice the words that I have underlined:

But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. So let each one give as he purposed in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work. As it is written: “He has dispersed abroad, He has given to the poor; His righteousness endures forever.” Now may He who supplies seed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply the seed you have sown and increase the fruits of your righteousness, while you are enriched in everything for all liberality, which causes thanksgiving through us to God. (2 Corinthians 9:6-11)

These principles will help you flow in God’s provision. Follow them as a lifestyle, and God will release his supernatural provision to you.

LET US PRAY
In Jesus Name You will never lack. The God of Elijah is with you and he is faithful

Provision comes by putting God first


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: Provision comes by putting God first

1king 17

I know that some people are really struggling and giving presents a very real dilemma for them. But God must come first in your finances. There is no other way to flow in God’s provision. If you are in debt, or if you have other financial difficulties to resolve, make sure you honour God first with what you do have.

Begin with God. If you don’t, you’ll never have enough for him when you come to the end of the list of other commitments. I’m not going to say how this principle should be worked out in your present circumstances, but it is a principle that you cannot afford to violate. Our debt is first of all unto the Lord. We must minister to God, first of all.

When asking the widow to give up what was to be the last meal for herself and her son Elijah was not being selfish or greedy. He was following God’s instructions to the letter. It looked like the sheer manipulation and exploitation of a vulnerable person, but God was in it. He provided for his servant and also saved the life of the widow woman and her son.

There was a divine principle involved: God’s house first. If you put God’s kingdom and his concerns first in your life, everything else will fall into place.

But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness and all these things shall be added to you. (Matthew 6:33) Get this principle straight in your life and then you must come before the Lord and seek his wisdom to work this out in your specific situation. There is no easy or instant quick fix. These are principles that you have to start to apply and it may take time, but it does work!

This week God will lead you and direct your feet to where your blessing are in Jesus Name

God's Provision


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: God’s provision

God’s provision does not come according to human reasoning

There is a supernatural element at work here. Provision does not come in line with human reasoning. When you are controlled by human thinking and worldly wisdom, you limit God and exclude him. God works in strange and unexpected ways. It is exciting, even though it can be extremely uncomfortable! Can you image what this meant to Elijah? God said to him, “I am going to provide for you throughout this time of drought. Go and prophesy, and the drought will come – but don’t worry, I am going to take care of you”. God fulfilled his promise through ravens and widows! The raven was an unclean bird to the Jew! And taking food from a poor widow? I can imagine Elijah recoiled at the thought of taking something from a woman who was worse off than himself. This is human thinking. God had to teach Elijah not to reason according to his natural understanding. God often uses extraordinary circumstances and extraordinary people – most unusual sources and most unusual instruments!

Sometimes it takes a great deal of faith and a rejection of normal human reasoning to grasp what God is doing. You can easily miss the provision of God if you don’t take time to listen to his promptings and discern the hand of God in your circumstances, no matter how bizarre they appear to be.

Purpose of Financial provision


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: Purpose of Financial provision

1King 17

Financial provision is for God’s purposes and not for mere personal gain

This doesn’t mean God doesn’t want to bless you personally, but the blessing is not there for your personal gain. God’s financial provision is to enable you to fulfil the purpose of God for your life. Elijah’s motive in seeking God for his provision was so that he could be true to the call of God upon his life. That can sound like language that is reserved for those in so-called ‘full time Christian service’. But we are all in full time Christian service – whatever our circumstances.

God has put you where you are to witness for him and influence others around you for the kingdom of God. Dedicate your life to Christian service wherever he calls you. God’s provision will flow into your life, if you are serving his purposes. The provision of God follows the purposes of God.

God could pour hundreds of thousands of pounds through your account but you must establish this right from the start. God’s prosperity is not for personal gain or for sheer indulgence but to serve the purposes of God.

God will bless you with Money and Spirit of poverty will not rule your life again in Jesus Name

Youth faith will be tested


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC Your faith will be tested

Being in the centre of God’s will does not mean a trouble-free existence! God said to Elijah, “Go to the brook. I am going to give you bread and meat in the morning and in the evening, and as much as you want to drink all throughout the day!” This was all very good until the brook dried up! I can imagine Elijah saying, “Lord, you told me to come here. Am I in the right place? The brook has dried up!” It can be confusing, but you have to trust the Lord even if it seems as if he has led you up a cul-de-sac.

Don’t blame the devil for all your trials. Remember God is allowing the tests to come in order to develop your faith. The devil wants to destroy your faith, but God wants to strengthen it. There is only one way to develop your faith and that’s to exercise it! You need the resistance that comes from opposing circumstances in order to develop your faith.

Blessing comes through Obedience


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC Blessing comes through obedience

Imagine what it was like for Elijah at this point. James says, “Elijah was a man with a nature like ours” (James 5:17).

This is true of all the great men and women of God in the Bible. We can wonder what Elijah was feeling – the drought was on and a time of extreme lack was upon the whole land. Obviously, Elijah was looking to the Lord. But surely he would have gone through the same kind of human emotions that we have to face today.
We must be careful not to rush ahead or to act hastily out of fear or anxiety. If we wait on the Lord during times of pressure he will show us what to do next.

Finally the word came to Elijah: Get away from here and turn eastward, and hide by the Brook Cherith, which flows into the Jordan. And it will be that you shall drink from the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to feed you there. (1 Kings 17:3-4).

Elijah obeys God immediately. He goes where God sends him and does what God tells him to do. Obedience to God is essential at all times – but in a time of lack it can be a matter of survival! Elijah did not strive – he just waited for God to speak and then acted on it. Hearing and obeying God are the twin keys to success. To walk in blessing, you must walk in obedience.

LET US PRAY
In Jesus Name, God will connect you to the right place and the right person that will help your destiny to breakthrough.

God knows it all


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: GOD KNOWS IT ALL

1 Kings 17:2-4 KJV
And the word of the Lord came unto him, saying, [3] Get thee hence, and turn thee eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan. [4] And it shall be, that thou shalt drink of the brook; and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there.

God knows your every need, even before you tell him, and he promises to provide for your every need!

God knew all about the drought in Israel. He initiated it and he knew that it would bring its own problems for the people of God. We often pray, “Oh God, bring prosperity!” But God may want the financial shaking to continue so that nations will fall on their knees and cry out to him.

God knows your need – he knows about your bills. God knows what you need even before you ask. He understands more than you can possibly know. He knew Elijah’s need and was ready to make full provision for it.

It is impossible for a loving father, who has the means, to refrain from meeting the needs of his children. God has the means to meet your every need. He is a loving Father and if he knows your need, he is prepared to meet your need. Paul the apostle says to the Philippians, “And my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:19).

Depend on God


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: DEPEND ON GOD

Trust in the Lord, not in your own understanding

Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. [6] In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

Why is it so tempting for us to depend on our own wisdom rather than the wisdom of our all-wise God? What makes us think that we know better than he does what is best for us? Scripture speaks clearly about how to live life abundantly forever with Christ; yet, all too easily, we justify our sin, declare distasteful commands irrelevant, and do what is right in our own eyes. Seasons of waiting reveal where we are placing our trust.

If you want God's direction in your life, start trusting him totally, when you depend totally on him he will not disappoint you, remember the 3 Hebrews they have option to bow down for the kings image but they chose to depend solace on God.

This is what God expect from me and you today, and our ways shall be prosperous.

Put your hope in His word

Psalm 130:5-6 KJV
I wait for the Lord , my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope. [6] My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.

We can be tempted to put our hope in things that may disappoint us in the end. We can hope a doctor will heal us, a teacher will pass us, a spouse will love us, our employer will reward us, or a friend will help us. But it is only when we put our hope in Christ that we can wait with confidence and know we will not be put to shame.

There is only one place to go to for reassurance during hard times, and that is to the cross.

It seems that God allows us to experience disappointments in life to teach us that nothing else will truly satisfy or provide us with a firm foundation to stand upon. God’s Word alone is unshakable. We can wait for the Lord knowing that, no matter how dark the night is, his light will break through in our lives, bringing abundant joy through a more intimate relationship with Christ.

What to do while waiting on God


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: WHAT TO DO WHILE WAITING ON GOD

Watch with expectancy, but be prepared for unexpected answers

Psalm 5:3 KJV
My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord ; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.

While God has been faithful to answer many of my prayers, it’s often been in far different ways than I would have anticipated! God knows that the only way to do what he and I both desire will, at times, involve varying degrees of discomfort in my life.

Growing in humility means pride has to be done away with. Learning to love like Jesus requires us to say no to self’s constant demand for selfish ambition, wanting our own way, and putting ourselves first. Growing in patience inevitably involves some form of waiting, whether in a long line at the grocery story or a lifetime for a loved one to come to Christ. When we lay our requests before him, it is by faith that we wait and watch in anticipation of God’s good work in us and others.

That’s where God demonstrated his love and mercy towards us when we were still his enemies.

He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things? (Romans 8:32)

In other words, the cross is our guarantee that God is for us and is committed to give us everything we would ask for if we knew everything he knew. We can be content with that and wait patiently for his answers.

TO BE LIKE CHRIST REQUIRES BEING CONFORMED TO HIS DEATH.


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: TO BE LIKE CHRIST REQUIRES BEING CONFORMED TO HIS DEATH.

This phrase is related to “the fellowship of His sufferings” and grows out of it. But it also has another dimension, which Paul describes in many other places, that of dying to sin and self through the cross of Christ. When we trust in Christ, we are placed “in Christ,” which means that we are identified with Him in His death and resurrection. But, we have to live experientially what is true of us positionally.

In Galatians 2:20 Paul states, “I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and delivered Himself up for me.”
In Colossians 3:5, just after explaining how we have died and been raised up with Christ (3:1-4), he exhorts us to “put to death” the members of our bodies with regard to various sins (also Rom. 6:1-11 compared with Rom. 8:13).

This is what Jesus meant when He said that whoever follows Him must deny self and take up his cross daily (Luke 9:23). Jesus always lived by denying temptations to live in His own power or for His own ends. He lived only to do the Father’s will. To the degree that we learn to die to self and sin by being conformed to His death, to the same degree we grow to be like Him. Hallelujah

LET US PRAY
Whatever that is holding you back of spiritual and physical progress I curse to day in Jesus Name.

Trusting God in Suffering


IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: TRUSTING GOD IN SUFFERING

Unlike Jesus, we have the powerful force of indwelling sin to contend with.
God uses suffering to burn off the dross and purify us. But, we have to cooperate with Him by humbling ourselves under His mighty hand when we go through trials, trusting His sovereignty over our suffering, and casting all our cares on Him (1 Pet. 5:6-11).

Fellowship points to closeness or intimacy. Though few Christians know it, those who suffer because of their faith in Christ know a special intimacy with Him.
When Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego were thrown into the fiery furnace for refusing to bow before Nebuchadnezzar’s idol, he looked and saw not three men, but four, walking in the fire (Dan. 3:25). I believe the fourth was Jesus Christ who stood with them in their hour of trial. They knew the fellowship of His sufferings.

Paul knew this fellowship. When he was preaching in corrupt Corinth, he was afraid. The Lord appeared to him in a vision and said, “Do not be afraid any longer, but go on speaking and do not be silent; for I am with you, and no man will attack you in order to harm you, for I have many people in this city” (Acts 18:9-10).

LET US PRAY
In Jesus Name, God will take away your pains and decorate your life with beautiful things. Amen
