Become Jesus Christ's Disciple

Good day Beloveds  We can sometimes get more caught up in the ways of men and forget that what is more important is God's way. In the below scripture Jesus shows us how traditions, customs and culture can affect our faith and obedience to God. Jesus wash born a Jew but he didn't share the good news about Judaism but about the kingdom of God. Remember that one is permanent and the other is temporary. Let's not mix the ways of men with the ways of God because the day of judgement is only based on the ways of God and not of mankind.  For more from me tune in to my podcast:  Set Apart For God  I bless you in Jesus name.

Good day Beloveds  We seem to spend time debating about things that make no difference to the kingdom of God. This prevents us from truly understanding what God expects from us. We spend more time trying to correct or perfect what is spiritual more than what is eternal. On the below scripture Paul speaks against the debate between the Gentiles and the Jews regarding Sabbath and eating clean or unclean animals. In the law [ Leviticus]God told the Israelites [Jews] what to eat and what not to eat, but later God told Apostle Peter that he has made what is unclean, clean. Gentiles were not subjected to these laws. Instead of focusing on what mattered the most as followers of Jesus the people focused on things that only affected their time on earth and not in eternity.  Watch the teaching now     Read online   For more from me tune in to my podcast:  Set Apart For God  I bless you in Jesus name.

Good day, Beloveds  Many people believe in Jesus but don't understand the connection to the Holy Spirit. In Acts 5:28, Peter and the apostles were told to stop teaching in the name of Jesus. The apostles were telling people about the resurrection of Jesus, but the high priest and the Jewish council wanted them to stop. In verse 32, we see how Peter and the apostles told them that they came to tell them about how they (the high priest and council) killed Jesus, but God resurrected him and gave him a place next to his throne. What do we learn from verse 32? 1. The apostles were not alone. The Holy Spirit was with them. 2. The apostles received the Holy Spirit after Jesus ascended to heaven. 3. The Holy Spirit is God's gift to people. 4. The Holy Spirit is only a gift to people who obey God. How does this relate to us? 1. Do you know if the Holy Spirit is with you? Before the Holy Spirit can be with us, we first need to receive him. 2. Have you received the Holy Spirit...

Good day, Beloveds  I hope that you feel blessed on this excellent morning. As we continue to transform into Jesus' character with the help of the Holy Spirit, we need to remain faithful and endure in all circumstances. Today, we look at John 8:12. Here, Jesus is talking to the people and not his disciples. When Jesus speaks to his disciples, he shares more details, and when it's the crowd that follows him, he just says enough but doesn't share too much.  Scripture Jesus says, "I am the light for the world."  He could have plainly said that he is the Messiah. Remember God's plan was that the people wouldn't recognise the Messiah. He is the light to the world, meaningful he didn't come for certain people but for all people. "Follow me" , Jesus is inviting the people to be his disciples. To follow him is to obey his commands, do the works that he did and more, and become like him in character (the fruit of the spirit). "And yo...

The Hidden Treasure: Understanding the Kingdom ​Good day, Beloveds. ​Growing up, I thought Jesus just liked speaking in "riddles" when it came to parables. I found them tricky, but through the teaching of the Holy Spirit, I now understand them as the deep secrets of God’s dwelling place—and how we can experience that place while still on earth. ​ Why did Jesus speak this way? To help the people of His era relate what they didn't know to things they did know. ​ Why is it sometimes hard for us to understand? Because we don't live in an agrarian society, and many of us aren't involved in farming. More importantly, we need the Holy Spirit to grant us revelation, as the Bible is spiritually "encrypted." ​ How can we understand? By using our imagination to relate these ancient stories to modern life, and by submitting fully to the Holy Spirit so He can teach us. Remember: always invite the Holy Spirit before you read the Word. ​The Parable of th...

Good day, Beloveds  I hope that you are awesome today. Here is a teaching on Matthew 5:1-12 It teaches you how to relate this scripture to your life and how you can use it to improve your life.

The Supernatural Life: Power, Fruits, and Gifts ​Good day, Beloveds. ​Did you know that the same power that resurrected Jesus Christ lives in every one of His true followers? This is the reason Jesus said we would do what He did—and even greater things. ​ John 14:12 (CEV) : "I tell you for certain that if you have faith in me, you will do the same things I am doing. You will do even greater things, now that I am going back to the Father." ​Jesus spent years teaching His disciples to be like Him because He was the perfect reflection of our Heavenly Father. Our origin, as seen in Genesis, was to be like God. Jesus came to return us to that origin and restore our true identity. ​ Genesis 1:26-27 (CEV) : "God said, 'Now we will make humans, and they will be like us...' So God created humans to be like himself..." ​Before Jesus ascended, He gave His followers an assignment: to complete the works He began. He knew that in our human strength, this was i...
