Topic: Value of my existence 3   Text : ```Genesis 34:1‭-‬2 NKJV Now Dinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had borne to Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land. And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of the country, saw her, he took her and lay with her, and violated her.```   COMMENTARY In my university days, I met a system that my spirit didn't align with. Campus fellowship does annual ceremony of dinner and award night. However in my view and thoughts, I saw, outreach programs and soul winning as a great commission and more honorable and valuable program to commit money into. The reasons given by few persons I approached was genuine: "since our brethren do not participate in the departmental and faculty dinner, we organizes a more decent dinner at the fellowship level in order to safeguard our members from indecent pool party that takes place in the department and faculty dinner level." Wow! This...

30/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Value of my existence 2_    Text :  ```Ephesian 2:10  For we are God’s [own] handiwork (His workmanship), recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined (planned beforehand) for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live].```    COMMENTARY Samson was another man who did not know the implication of his existence. He did not know the gravity of the oil on his head; so he died like a pauper. Adam and Eve did not know the implication of their existence in the garden of Eden; until they were driven out of it. When a woman is unaware about the value God attached to her, she could reduce herself to a gossip, just like Eve. The problem of Eve was that she couldn't identify a busybody. "Did God say you should not.." Why are you interested in what God said ...

To affect lives and make your existence valuable,You must understand Divine appointment and placement. You must understand what God’s purpose for your life is. You must understand your place in destiny. Much more, you must understand the implication of your existence. Ma...

28/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Divertion of Will   Text :  ```Genesis 27:10‭-‬13 NKJV Then you shall take it to your father, that he may eat it, and that he may bless you before his death.” And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, “Look, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth-skinned man. Perhaps my father will feel me, and I shall seem to be a deceiver to him; and I shall bring a curse on myself and not a blessing.” But his mother said to him, “Let your curse be on me, my son; only obey my voice, and go, get them for me.” ```   COMMENTARY A will is a legal document that sets forth your wishes regarding the distribution of your property. It bequeath something to (someone) by the terms of one's will. Isaac on a sick bed has just expressed his intentions on how he wishes to bless Esau before he takes his last breath. Someone connive and conspired to change the whole thing. Rebecca the wife of Isaac took a decision that shook the foundatio...

27/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Credential forgery.   Text :  ```Genesis 27:10‭-‬13 NKJV Then you shall take it to your father, that he may eat it, and that he may bless you before his death.” And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, “Look, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth-skinned man. Perhaps my father will feel me, and I shall seem to be a deceiver to him; and I shall bring a curse on myself and not a blessing.” But his mother said to him, “Let your curse be on me, my son; only obey my voice, and go, get them for me.” ```   COMMENTARY This scripture passage shows favoritism, love and at same time shows crime against another. When a mother is in love, she can sacrifice another person to save her child that she loves. Jacob was aware that what he is doing against his brother is a crime and could land him into a perpetual trouble. The mother encouraged him to go ahead and make sure that he secured his father's blessings. Imagine, Ja...

26/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Pray Scripture   Text :```I Peter 5:5‭-‬6 NKJV Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders. Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for “God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.” Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time``` ,   COMMENTARY Prayer is a conversation with God and when we knows the words of God, it enhances our conversation with God and makes it easier. We could pray amiss if we are driven by our own passion and lust. When we align ourselves to the word of God and prayer according to the word, our prayers draws God's attention more easily. The word of God is the mind and will of God. Praying according to the word of God is like asking God let your will be done. To live a life of fervency and effectual prayer that brings results, knowing the mind of God is necessary. Mind of God is already rev...

25/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Relax and align yourself  Text:  ```Romans 8:26‭-‬27 NKJV Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God.```   COMMENTARY Uncommon prayers and intercession is achieved with a relaxed mind rather than a troubled heart and soared mind. Apostle Paul admonished the Philippians Church to be anxious about nothing but through prayer and supplication, they should make their request known to God. Someone who is tendering a request does it with a relaxed mind. Prayer is not argument, prayer is not complain or comparison. While we pray, we should be careful not to mix up our prayers with complain and comparisons. Prayer is a Physical activ...

24/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Praying effectively   Text : ```Matthew 6:9‭-‬13 NKJV In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, As we forgive our debtors. And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. ``` COMMENTARY Jesus says that when you pray, don't show off by praying publicly or babbling all sorts of words. He assures you that your Father God already knows your needs before even asking for them. In the book of Matthew, Jesus instructs that when you pray you should pray like this:  "Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us...

23/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic:Bible is transformative   Text :  ```James 1:22‭-‬25 NKJV But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does. ``` COMMENTARY This same words that we hear and ignore are same words that God used to create the world. The word of God has a creative, transformative and even miraculous force inherent in it. Every word that proceeds from God has a potential to achieve something. _Isaiah 55:11 NKJV So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing fo...

22/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Integrating prayer in the bible Study.   Text :  ```Jeremiah 29:11‭-‬13 NKJV For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.```   COMMENTARY Great bible study meeting either personal or group is always accompanied with prayer. Prayer is understand to be a communication with God. Humans were authors of bible books but inspired by God through the Holy Spirit. Words passed through the Holy bible are proceeded from God and requires prayers to God whose Holy Spirit is also needed for accurate understanding and interpretation thereof. Bible is the mind of God and doesn't require any private interpretation. Many people interpret bible the way it will suit them but this attitude doesn't b...

21/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Bible study is supported by tools.   Text :  ```II Timothy 3:16‭-‬17 NKJV All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.```   COMMENTARY   Learning scripture is aided by several factors. Sometimes listening to audio records of messages from sound bible expositors.  Leaning on mentors save us from wrong interpretation and as well applications. Mentorship is very important because of applications, while readership, quiet time and listening to audio records watching of videos are also key to building our Bible knowledge especially in this age of technology. For students of the Bible, our ingredients are the tools we use to help us understand Scripture. If we use good tools, we will develop a rich understanding of the Biblical world and le...

A CHARGE TO GOSPEL MINISTERS 1   Functionality : Functionality is the reason for creation. Those who created bicycle has a function in mind which they designed bicycle to meet. There is a particular problem in the mind of every manufacturer. God manufactured man to dwell in him and to through him exercise His dominion and authority over darkness. Darkness has ruled, ruin and destroyed but a new order came with God calling men into ministry. President of any nation normally have their cabinet members. Those cabinet members have offices and portfolios. If there is no function for them to perform, the president wouldn't have called them. God have me as His cabinet member and I jointly take decision with the rulers in heaven to make sure the government of God is not forced out in the face of the earth by the continuing activities of darkness.   Know your function in the body of Christ There are five fold ministries in the body of Christ. If you are a Minister of the go...

20/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Habitual quiet time Text : ``Luke 5:16 NKJV So He Himself often withdrew into the wilderness and prayed.```   COMMENTARY Whether we know it or not, our lives are based around our habits. What we eat, how we react to stress, whether or not we snooze the alarm – these are all dictated by the habits we have allowed into our lives. I’m telling you this because I want you to grasp how important it really is to regularly get into God’s Word.  Why were the giants of faith we see in Scripture so effective? Because time with God and time in His Word were non-negotiable pieces of their every day. Despite all the mistakes King David made, he kept coming back to God’s Word, readjusting his life according to what it said, and impacting Israel’s history because of it. Paul grew up a passionate Pharisee who lived and breathed the Scriptures. And once Jesus upturned his life, he approached God’s Word with a whole new confidence and fu...

19/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Why Studying The Bible Matters.   Text : ```Hebrews 4:12 NKJV For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.```   COMMENTARY Have you ever compared the word of God to any other thing? Let's say the word of a judge in a law court. Do you know the value of the word of a judge? No one within the jurisdiction of a court can disobey the order of a court. Same thing goes with the word of a king within his kingdom. The word of God is powerful and carries its enforcement power behind it. It executes its purpose without hinderance. When a man is loaded with the word of God, the Spirit of God in the word transforms such a person positively. The word of God is capable of purging our spirit so that we can have same nature of holiness as God. When this is achieve...

18/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Dominated by evil thoughts Text :  ```James 1:14-15 But each one is tempted when he is dragged away, enticed and baited [to commit sin] by his own [worldly] desire (lust, passion). Then when the illicit desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and when sin has run its course, it gives birth to death.``` COMMENTARY No man can be overpowered by temptation except his thought is first dominated with evil imaginations. Overcoming sin and temptation is a battle that is first won in the battle field of our minds.Do not rend your heart to evil thought rather tend your heart with the word of God for that is the same way the son of God overcame temptation. _Matthew 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God._  What answer do you say to your thoughts when evil desire knocks at the door of your heart. Be careful of your desires that ...

17/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Maturity in faith 2 Text : ```Romans 1:17 NKJV For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, “The just shall live by faith.” ``` COMMENTARY Maturity of a Christian is all about growth in spiritual things. To be fully developed and allow Christ to be fully formed in us. Christ was full of faith and sometimes He quarreled His followers with words like "faithless generation." You could live a life of outward holiness, obeying every rules and laws but without faith. It will be very impossible to please God with such attitude of doubt yet attending every crusades and prayer meetings. Our text says that it is the righteousness of God that reveals faith. No wonder Abraham had faith and it was imputed to him as righteousness. Unbelief makes us babies and unable to achieve anything meaningful to the body of Christ. One sign of Spiritual maturity is to believe and keep moving even ...

16/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Maturity in faith Text :   ```Galatians 4:1 NKJV Now I say that the heir, as long as he is a child, does not differ at all from a slave, though he is master of all,``` COMMENTARY In order to get the crux and membrane of this sermon, reviewing the meaning of key words is important. Maturity means fully developed physically; full-grown. It is important to note that no trees can bear fruit except it is fully matured.  Faith is defined in the book of Hebrews chapter 11: 1 _Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen._ A maturity in faith would mean a faith that is able to bear fruits. The book of Hebrews 11 described how elders obtained good report through faith. They were able to obtain good report because when God says wait, they waited. When God says move, they moved. Maturity in faith is all about living your life by faith. Someone who is immature in faith would wait for wh...

15/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition Topic: Maturity of a Leader. Text : ```Ecclesiastes 10:15‭-‬18 NKJV  The labor of fools wearies them, For they do not even know how to go to the city! Woe to you, O land, when your king is a child, And your princes feast in the morning! Blessed are you, O land, when your king is the son of nobles, And your princes feast at the proper time— For strength and not for drunkenness! Because of laziness the building decays, And through idleness of hands the house leaks.``` COMMENTARY Maturity of a great Leadership lies on ability to make wise decision and stand firm by it, not driven by emotions but practically demonstrating faith on agreement between you and others or between you and God. Breach of agreement or shifting from the boundaries is manifestation of immaturity, insecurity mindset and irresponsibility. He makes a promise, and even if it hurts to follow through on it, he does not change his commitment. A leader should be matured,...

14/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Divine Shift   Text :  ```I Kings 17:3‭-‬4 NKJV  “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.” ```   COMMENTARY Shift means to move or cause to move from one place to another, especially over a small distance. Elijah got a shift from a disadvantaged location to a new location that occasioned divine provision. Don't wait for a second chance with God when you are neglecting or ignoring the first task. It could look very simple but that's the way of divinity. A simple instruction obeyed, a bigger testimony that last till eternity. How many voice did Abraham hear? Just one time and the next thing was his obedience. Most delay in our destiny is as a result of doubt and disobedience to God's divine impulse, control and directions. If the hand behind your shift ...

13/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Divine Direction 2   Text : ```I Kings 17:3‭-‬4 NKJV  “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.” ```   COMMENTARY The place of location when it comes to divine direction can not be overemphasized. The prophet was told to _get away from here and turn eastward_ . The question is why must he leave his location and get to another location? This is because divine allocation works with location, even for Adam and Eve they were placed in a location where God can easily access them. Have you been seeking for divine establishment and allocation but haven't align yourself to divine direction and location? This is the time to pay attention to the voice of the Spirit in order not to miss out in God's plan and purpose for your life.It is at this turning point that divin...

12/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Divine Direction Text:  ```I Kings 17:3‭-‬4 NKJV  “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.” ```   COMMENTARY Preservation, protection and peace of mind is divinely given under a divine direction. Elijah is one of the Prophets that had rare ability of conversing with God. Every prophets have ability to hear from God but level of intimacy and results varies. Seeking the next page of your life could be dependent on obedience to the last chain of direction (instruction) you received from God. Asking God what would happen if you get to the brook would be an irrelevant question. God has spoken, the duty is shifted to you, and obedience is expected. When you arrive the brook, you will see the next divine link. Of course Elijah met the Raven at the brook. If he ha...

11/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Navigating through mockery and misery. Text :  ```I Samuel 1:5‭-‬7 NKJV But to Hannah he would give a double portion, for he loved Hannah, although the Lord had closed her womb. And her rival also provoked her severely, to make her miserable, because the Lord had closed her womb. So it was, year by year, when she went up to the house of the Lord, that she provoked her; therefore she wept and did not eat.```   COMMENTARY One of the hard moment to navigate through in life is a moment of mockery. Your head would be down and you would feel heavy like a vulture soaked in the rain. If you are walking to pass through a crowd, you will feel heaviness of your head as if your head and trunk are heavier than your legs to carry. Hannah the would be mother of a great Prophet journeyed on this lonely road of mockers before arriving at the birth of uncommon Prophet. When what you carry is probably too glorious, mockery would attack y...

Topic: Laughing stock Text : ```Joel 2:19 NKJV The Lord will answer and say to His people, “Behold, I will send you grain and new wine and oil, And you will be satisfied by them; I will no longer make you a reproach among the nations.``` COMMENTARY Oxford dictionary defined laughing stock as a person or thing subjected to general mockery or ridicule. This drew my attention to God who sees all things, who knows all things. Omniscient, omnipresent and omnipotent God. He truly saw the afflictions of his people. Your sorrows and endless woes were not hidden before the sight of all knowing God. _Isaiah 43:2 NKJV When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, Nor shall the flame scorch you._ Your horrible experiences could have made you think whether God is still there. However there are different phases of experience i...

09/01/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Be an Overcomer of evil Text :  ```Romans 12:17-19 AMP Never repay anyone evil for evil. Take thought for what is right and gracious and proper in the sight of everyone. If possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave the way open for God’s wrath [and His judicial righteousness]; for it is written [in Scripture], “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord.``` COMMENTARY A popular Nigerian movie actor, Mr. John Okafor, in one of his movie featured as a character who has mother, brother and sisters who insulted him and disrespected him for not being rich. As the thoughts and worries of his life disturbed him, he dreamt where he has become rich and living in a mansion. When his family visited in that same dream, he showed a practical demonstration of revenge especially on her sisters whom he ordered to lie down while he walk on them. Even though y...

Topic: Divine Settlement 3 Text : ```Proverbs 10:21‭-‬24 NKJV The lips of the righteous feed many, But fools die for lack of wisdom. The blessing of the Lord makes one rich, And He adds no sorrow with it. To do evil is like sport to a fool, But a man of understanding has wisdom. The fear of the wicked will come upon him, And the desire of the righteous will be granted.```   COMMENTARY In this proverb, Solomon is differentiating the wealth that comes from the blessing of God from the wealth that comes from all other sources. Wealth can be accessed by many roads but only one of those roads is smooth. The blessing of God can bring wealth and when it does, God doesn't add any sorrow to it. The blessing of the Lord makes one rich, And He adds no sorrow with it.” It's His favor, wisdom, protection, abundance, ability, grace, joy, freedom, peace - all resting upon you and whatever you put your hand to. The kind of blessings in Numbers 6:22-27 When God blesses a man to be r...

He will bring them back to settle once again in their own land. And people from many different nations will come and join them there and unite with the people of Israel. The nations of the world will help the people of Israel to return, and those who come to live in the Lord’s land will serve them. Those who captured Israel will themselves be captured, and Israel will rule over its enemies. ```  COMMENTARY A true life story of someone who had first class in his degree but suffered a traumatic mental illness under spell of occultic senior colleague in the office surfaced after he was delivered through Apostle Arome Osayi's ministration.

Topic: Divine Establishment   Text : ```Job 22:26‭-‬30 NKJV For then you will have your delight in the Almighty, And lift up your face to God. You will make your prayer to Him, He will hear you, And you will pay your vows. You will also declare a thing, And it will be established for you; So light will shine on your ways. When they cast you down, and you say, ‘Exaltation will come!’ Then He will save the humble person. He will even deliver one who is not innocent; Yes, he will be delivered by the purity of your hands.” ```   COMMENTARY Establishment is with the mind and Soul of him who is being established. You must first conceive and declare it and then God will cause it to become. The Spirit of God is behind every righteous steps we take. God's glory is seen through our establishment and shining. The scripture says in the book of Isaiah 60:1 "Arise, shine for the glory of God is risen upon you." As we ply our hearts to anything we hope to get started this ye...

The Lord said to Satan, “From where have you come?” Then Satan answered the Lord, “From roaming around on the earth and from walking around on it.”```   COMMENTARY   Uninvited yet attending, for what? Why is Satan always going to the gathering of the children of God? Presenting himself to the Lord is not his priority, he is chiefly looking for whom to distract. As children of God testifies of triumphing over evil with good, the children of the disobedience take pleasure in doing evil and testifies when they succeed in multiplying evil, especially when their intended distractions work out and a child of God compromise to follow evil. Have you wondered why believers compromise? It starts from this ki...

God will always look for his own. Jesus gave a parable of the lost sheep in Matthew 18. God's plan is to restore His own even when they are straying or backsliding. To make His kingdom accessible to all. However devil also works hard to make sure that he puts enmity between man and God. Satan is never tired of roaming around, lurking around good people. All his mission is to corrupt man so that he that is acceptable by God, useful to God could become unusable. When God for instance...

The Lord said to Satan, “From where have you come?” Then Satan answered the Lord, “From roaming around on the earth and from walking around on it.”```   COMMENTARY   Satan came to present himself also not because he was seeking righteousness but because he was attacking  the righteousness of Job. Satan will find a way to inflict righteous people so they can see God as unfaithful. Did you notice that the two presenting themselves before the Lord are directly opposite? While Job was a righteous man, satan came to attack the righteousness of Job and seek permission from God to ruin Job. Satan is evil and his works are evil.
