GOD'S ABILITIES VS YOUR ABILITIES


This article is quite lengthy, kindly read through it. You won't regret it. It will bless you.

We all know that the basic definition of ABILITY is the quality of being able or the capacity to do something. It also connotes possessing strength or power.
 True right?

Yeah! It is equally true that we all are given a share of this quality – ability to engage in activities – else we would be useless and unproductive. It is by the ability God gave us that we can be able to carry out certain task in every field of life, say mental ability, physical ability, intellectual ability, academic ability, business ability, reproduction ability(biologically), and the list continues.

However, we should understand that there's an ability way higher than that we possess because our abilities have limitations. Yes they do! Humans are not omnipotent. We still posses weaknesses and inabilities admits the abilities we have. You can't possibly do everything as a human. There are humongous amount of things we cannot do, access or engage in because of our limited ability.

For example, you as a person can't run 1,000 km/hr. You can't even move that distance with a vehicle in an hour. It will take a supernatural ability to that as a human.

Samson tore a lion apart with his bare hands, brought down a mighty building that killed multitudes at a spot; that's supernatural ability. The walls of Jericho – as strong and tough as it was – fell flat  by just walking round it and blowing trumpets; that's not what a human can do. The sun stood still for Joshua, three thousands souls received Christ in a day, a man came back to life even after 4 days, a man spent the night in a lion's den and came out unharmed, three men was cruising with the fourth Man in the fiery flames without a slight smell of smoke or burn. These amongst the thousands of event that happened in the scriptures shows that a supernatural ability exist.

One thing you should understand by God's word is that your abilities are futile to a certain extent but there's none to that of Christ.

Let me shock you in case you don't know.

Do you know that the power, ability and strength shown to be superior and supernatural works in you as a Christain? Do you know you can DO ALL THINGS, I mean ALL THINGS because His power works in you?
Nothing can be limited or impossible for you as long as you have that understanding and have Christ and His power work in you.

Ephesians 3:20 reveals that God is ABLE TO DO exceedingly abundantly above whatever we ask or think according to the POWER that works in us. This means that the power that wrought great things even beyond human comprehension and apprehension works in you child of God. 
Nothing is impossible with you in Christ.

You can exceed limits of men in businesses, academics, finances, marriage, career etc. You can break records of others. Yes you can!
You just have to acknowledge and depend on the Omnipotent One (who can do all things) and you'll end up confessing like Apostle Paul "..I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me"  Philippians 4:13.

Just be and stay connected to Christ cause without Him, you can do nothing; He said it Himself. John 15:5.
Its true that you have your own ability but with your peanut ability, you can't amount to anything or yield great results in your endeavors when the Ultimate is neglected.

You can do what you've never done before. You can make great impacts, explosion in business, success in marriage, excellence in academics, unusual fruitfulness and productivity in life, just depend on His ability (power) which actually works in you.

Also note that, having or depending on Christ ability doesn't mean you shouldn't put in your own efforts. You have to work too. Do your part; be it intellectual, mental, physical strength should be applied in making things work. Laziness isn't accepted.
The vine(Christ) and the branch (you) works hand in glove to enable the reproduction of fruits. 

Be up and doing concerning that part of your life you desire results and with Christ fully involved, you'll have undeniable and unusual result.

Now, if you aren't born again, its time you get into the family of Christ. This will only take effect in your life if you're in Christ.
Turn from your old ways and go to Jesus. He's waiting with open arms to receive you.

Thank you for reading through!

I love you but Christ loves you more!

HOW POSSIBLE IS PURITY IN A PERVERSE WORLD?

We live in a world where premarital sex, lust, and diverse sexual vices are thrown at us on the face. Sensual pictures, movies and music that promotes and instigates pornography, masturbation, lesbianism, homosexuality, adultery, rape, lust, etc are rampant, virtually everywhere. It takes advance discipline and utmost reverend for God to be able to resist it. When you access the internet, its there. When you read through some magazines, its there. What about the television compiled with various TV channels with different commercials, ads, movies, operas, shows, etc, it is in its abundance.  These days, almost everything we view promotes lust. Even ads; mere ads. Those that value their christian faith and purity can't even watch television in peace. You'll have to keep changing and switching channels to guide your eyes against scenes that defiles the mind. Even the streets are cluttered with immodestly dressed women and men. They are on every sidewalk and every corne...

HE WAITS FOR IT

I love that feeling I get when a person who seeks my downfall gets so disappointed as a result of his planned scheme against me being totally frustrated. I really do love it. It communicates that I can't be touched, harmed or disadvantaged by the enemy. It makes the fact about God being with me evident to me. I'm certain Jesus had that satisfactory feeling when He overcame the temptations the devil brought His way during His retreat in the wilderness. Imagine being highly tempted three times around the same time and all temptations are in sync with the desires of the flesh. However, Jesus overcame him with a simple tactics..." by the words of their testimony" ( Revelation   12:11).  Until tomorrow, this strategy is most relevant for overcoming any hurdle, challenge or temptation. How does this correlate with today's article; HE WAITS FOR IT? Luke speaks of a reality Jesus experienced and every Christian equally experiences.   See this: "Now when t...

AN EYE FOR AN EYE

An eye for an eye is no new idiom. You must have heard of it or use it yourself. Either way, that idiom is something a child of God should never use but apply a different approach to it. An eye for an eye is a language used by those who seek justice (a repay) of wrong(s) or evil done to him or her. But in as much as justice is good and in many cases approved even in scriptures, same scripture gave room for mercy and forgiveness.  Unfortunately, many christians take laws into their hands by "wanting their offenders eye for the eye taken from them". They want to equivalently retaliate for the pain, backstab, hate, gossip or any sort of evil done to them in other to satisfy that hurt. But this is contrary to what Jesus preached. Jesus taught two vital measures you should take for any wrong or mischief done against you.  Before i talk on these two keys, I'd love to reveal what the Holyspirit personally taught me from the book of Ephesians on this subject of reveng...

A GEN Z PROBLEM

You don't have to be surprised by today's blog title. I can assure you that there are challenges this generation are faced with that the previous generations didn't experience.  Just stay with me on this ride. In case you don't know what Gen Z is, GEN Z (Generation Z) is a term refered to individuals born between 1997 and 2012. It isn't really a professional term used to identify those born in those years but it was coined by few individuals. However, it's use gained wide spread around 2010 to 2015 particularly amongst marketers/advertizers, media outlets, researchers and youngsters especially in social media world. I said something about the previous generation known as the millennials (those born between 1981 to 1996) who didn't really face the problems of the 'Gen Z's. "What could it be? "  Simple, SOCIAL MEDIA PRESSURE. Prior to the 21st century (2000's), it is recorded that the world was already digitalized but the soci...

GOD IS COMMITTED TO YOUR SAFETY: An Experience

Last Sunday's service sparked in my memory an experience I had with a cultist few months back. The sermon, "THE HOLY SPIRIT AND HIS ANGELS OF PROSPERITY" by my mentor, Pastor Victor Akah cemented my belief in God's total protection, the ministry of His angels and the consciousness of their presence in my life. However, I want to show you by the spirit and my experience that God never fails to protect and deliver those who are His.  It was on a Saturday evening. The weather; beautiful, fit for evangelism. I walked a distance then followed a shortcut that would make my journey to the church hall easier before setting out for evangelism with brethren. It was round 4:30 pm.  As I walked into the street, getting closer to its end as to reach the express road, I heard a man whistle at me, " Hello, fine girl, stop". I thought it was just one of those guys by the road side that have nothing to tell a young girl but to ask for her name and number, so I ig...
