20/03/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Testimony Killers.

 Text: ```John 12:9‭-‬11 NIV Meanwhile a large crowd of Jews found out that Jesus was there and came, not only because of him but also to see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead. So the chief priests made plans to kill Lazarus as well, for on account of him many of the Jews were going over to Jesus and believing in him.```
 
COMMENTARY
A large crowd of Jews followed Jesus with negative intention to destroy his evidence. When they have learned that Jesus raised Lazarus from dead, they sought to kill Lazarus in order to silence Jesus and diminish His glory and popularity. Certain people might have suddenly become your followers online and offline. You need to distinguish between the following of these kind of Jewish crowd and genuine followers.

At your last improvement in your ministry, career or financial growth, you may have witnessed more people around you than the usual handful of friends. It is normal with envious people to lurk around your life when you are having records and evidences of God's goodness. Don't be deceived to believe that the multitude around your life came for good, your upliftment and promotion. Some are close but very passionate, hungry and desirous of your downfall.

Why were they desirous of killing Lazarus? Once they succeed in killing Lazarus, they will tell you that Jesus never raised Lazarus from the dead. They will even tell you that Jesus has never perform a single miracle in Bethany. They wanted to erase the mark and impact Jesus was making. They denied that He is not called from God, yet when God speaks confirming the ministry of Jesus, they would want to close the evidence of God's presence in Christ's ministry.

Food for thought: Haters would always plot to diminish you and your testimonies.

 Prayer:  ```Help me Lord to know more than my adversaries and those who are looking for my downfall in Jesus name.```

 31/12/2023 *Christian WATCH Exposition* *Topic:* _Habit 1. Roaming around_  *Text:*  ```Job 2:1-2 AMP Job Loses His Health Again there was a day when the sons of God (angels) came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan (adversary, accuser) also came among them to present himself before the Lord. 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*  As children we grew up seeing Almanac painting of a dark human like image with tail, hons and horrible dentition being displayed on walls of our houses as Satan. Some of these almanac displayed Jesus and Satan having a soccer. Other Almanac can be a wrestling match between Satan and Jesus and things like that. Satan cannot be known by all those images. Satan is a spirit and manifest through human beings. Therefore in this study we shall look into the habits and manifestations of Satan. One of the ...

Topic: Habit 5. Distractions.   Text :  ```Job 2:1-2 AMP Job Loses His Health Again there was a day when the sons of God (angels) came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan (adversary, accuser) also came among them to present himself before the Lord. 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...

02/02/2024: Christian WATCH Exposition. Topic: Illegal Structures.   Text :  ```Jeremiah 1:7‭-‬10 NKJV But the Lord said to me: “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ For you shall go to all to whom I send you, And whatever I command you, you shall speak. Do not be afraid of their faces, For I am with you to deliver you,” says the Lord. Then the Lord put forth His hand and touched my mouth, and the Lord said to me: “Behold, I have put My words in your mouth. See, I have this day set you over the nations and over the kingdoms, To root out and to pull down, To destroy and to throw down, To build and to plant.”```   COMMENTARY One of the foundational significant difference between Prophetic ministers and the rest of the people in the society is eyes. God gives ability to identify original architectural master plans to the Prophets. God give them ability to read and interpret geographical and geological map of families and individual persons lives. God's purpose and plans a...
