Heart of the Wise

It is VERY important for the believer to "re-calibrate" or renew his mind with the WORD OF GOD because it is with this mind that he processes life's experiences and it is through His Word that God basically speaks to us. His WORD is assured and absolute TRUTH; it is NOT subjective or suggestive.   The danger of an unrenewed mind is that WITHOUT this ongoing, biblical mind renewal or mental re-calibration (this continuous growth in grace and in the knowledge of God, this progressive sanctification by the truth of GOD'S WORD), a person is susceptible to subtle influences and ideologies from society and from Satan which are contrary to Scriptures.  This is one of the major reasons for the rise of several humanistic movements that are more self-driven and self-seeking than Spirit-led and God-pleasing. (NOTE: an anti-God, anti-Truth, anti-Scriptures spirit or ideology is an anti-Christ spirit: the spiritual principle NOT necessarily the physical person).

If you ONLY feel guilt about sexual immorality but do NOT have the conviction of the Spirit over other sins in your life, then you have religion and self-righteousness NOT true holiness and sanctification. A FALSE sense of guilt over sexual sin comes largely from a FALSE perception of SEX that is deeply rooted in a FALSE sense of pietism or a FALSE concept of holiness. That is why a pseudo-religious married couple may even feel guilty after having sex.  They may have either not built an authentic and emotionally intimate relationship or their weak consciences and immature minds have been tainted or inhibited by a rather FALSE sense of religiosity that does not understand the distinction between sex and sexual sin or between sexuality and sexual immorality. Sex is NO sin.  Sexual immorality is sin. Yet, sexual vice, impurity or immorality is sin NOT because of the "sexual" part but because of the "vice", "impurity" or "immorali

WARNING:  Many professed preachers and pastors are NOT genuinely born again.  Read my lips: JESUS is NOT in them.  Many are servants of mammon and satan. They may have charisma, talking prowess, organisational ability and some theological learning but they do NOT know the Lord Jesus Christ.  Do NOT be surprised or shocked and do NOT sleep on now. We're in the last days. See the signs all over the world. It's getting VERY close to THE END OF ALL THINGS.  Watch. Pray. Please discipline yourself to do this, beloved. Please do. Many false preachers have mega centres of commercialized religion which are hugely successful in the eyes of the world and thus tempting, enticing or convincing to the carnal mind (and its senses), which has unbridled appetite for such vanities.  God will bless His own in the right way NOT through unrighteousness and error. He knows our needs. He has made ample provision for our material needs to be well taken care of through

Why do I speak so much about God and spirituality? Because that's the core and central point of our entire existence: start to finish.  So, this is the gist... I'm a big picture person. I look for the critical factors in any endeavour. I avoid nonessentials and dodge distractions. I strive to stay focused on the main goal and not get lost in transit.  Ever so often, I retreat to the drawing board to touch base with the basics and be sure I'm still on course in the divine agenda and grand vision, or to know if plans and methods have changed.  What shall it profit a man to initially and temporarily gain the whole world of vast possibilities but to eventually lose his precious eternal soul? One thing is sure: his soul is MOST critical.  So, I take care of soul issues FIRST. It has nothing with being sanctimonious or 'spirikoko' just for the sake of it. I've seen a few things in life and I know there's really nothing to this life. 

It takes brokenness to truly love people. BLESSED are the BROKEN who are broken of GOD to be BLESSINGS to men! Christian brokenness refers to the work of God's Spirit in a true believer that softens his heart, surrenders his will, makes him sensitive to God, develops depth in true godliness, humility, spiritual maturity, or simply put, Christlike character.  It makes a child of God deeply attractive and compassionately irresistible to the Father, God Almighty.  This "breaking" of the stubborn self may be through the Word by spiritual ministry or meditation and through life circumstances that reach to the self life, soul and unrenewed mind of 'perfecting' or maturing saints.  "The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.". (Psalm 51:17) In ministry, the concept of "breaking bread" for multiplied distribution and increased edification can be used as a simple illustration of this truth. Ch

WHAT IS FORNICATION? Although this is a commonly used term, we should NOT take it for granted that its meaning is clear as some ambiguity may still exist, hence this question. In simple terms, fornication is sexual intercourse between people who are not married to each other. However, in its biblical usage, it has the much broader meaning of ANY sexual act outside monogamous marriage (one spouse). That means, it does NOT only refer to premarital sex but also includes adultery (in its different forms: sex with a non-spouse, lusting after a non-spouse or remarriage after unbiblical divorce/separation), homosexuality, incest, bestiality (sexual acts with animals), etc. WHAT IS BIBLICAL DIVORCE? Biblical basis for divorce: 1. FORNICATION  But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery. (Matthew 5:32) And I say unto you,

Scientifically, perfectionism has been classified as a type of mental disorder such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders and other addictive behaviors. Perfectionism is actually an addiction and can lead to other mental illnesses or behavioral disorders such as depression, aggression and even suicide at the very worst case. Spiritually, perfection addiction may be attributable to some unhealthy influence or imprint in the heart and mind of a person that alters their sense of inner wholeness and attempts to make up for it with any form of external attachments or achievements. It is typically symptomatic of a deeper deficit such as destructive pride, sense of superiority or inferiority such as poor self-esteem or low sense of self-worth. These underlying factors usually originate from a heightened perception of the lack of parental love in childhood, some form of abuse (in its various possible shades) or deprivation in early years. Then they can culminate in the enslaving ne

Wedding style is a choice not a compulsion. The focus must be on truly understanding what marriage is (a sacred promise, oath or covenant and a lifelong commitment of love and companionship) and on the intimate and immense responsibilities for each other that both parties are taking on. Marriage is essentially abused when the focus deviates to temporal externalities only. This beautiful institution is undermined by shallow societal stereotypes such as giving greater emphasis on ceremonial celebrations without a proper understanding of the basics of and basis for getting married. The purpose of a marriage ceremony is to mark the beginning of a lifetime of marriage in the presence of appropriate witnesses, with the approval of an authorised officiant (clergy or registrar of marriage), with the blessing of parents and family and to honor the mutual consent of the uniting couple. A recognised marriage should typically be statutory and customary in its initiation. However, depending on the

Demons are unclean, ungodly or evil SPIRITS who perpetrate the will of their master, Satan, in rebellion against the only true God. These spirit beings wield significant supernatural influence upon human beings and human experiences. They work in solo assignments or strategic alliances with other demonic orders or territorial commands. They also work in and through humans who wittingly or unwittingly give them undue access to their minds and life's situations. They are extremely subtle, strategic, suggestive and stubborn in their multifaceted operations. Effectively, they may be a thought or counsel away. They form part of the hellish horde of the Kingdom of Darkness. They are active operatives of the enemy of man's Soul and arch-enemy of man's Source. Their satanic mission and job description is clear: to kill, steal and destroy. They will go to any lengths to accomplish this, directly or indirectly, in humanity. However, they largely operate "in the

There is a prevalent spirit of greed and covetousness cloaked with "religious zeal without revelation knowledge" of the authentic Christ. I term it "charismatic covetousness".  This spirit and mindset of covetousness is dangerously deceitful. It is especially tempting in times of economic recession and it is entrenched by the  prosperity false gospel. The Lord Jesus would never promote such.  We need to repent and be renewed in spirit and in truth. I had an experience in 2014 when I received a relatively significant sum of money credited erroneously to my bank account by my employer, erroneously approved by my Line Manager who thought it was one of the allowances due to me at that time, processed by HR Department and paid by the Payroll Department. I immediately reported to my Line Manager and did the necessary due diligence to reimburse the money ASAP. No delays. No stories. It was later discovered to be a system error. I make NO bogus claims to sinless perfect

Dearly beloved, it comes strongly to my spirit to share, in all humility and reverence for God and his truth, the Bible's clear and numerous warnings of the end-time invasion of the Church by false teachers with false doctrines and false gospel. Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils. (1 Timothy 4:1) But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will also be false teachers among you, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing swift destruction upon themselves. (2 Peter 2:1) Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. (1 John 4:1) Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. (2 Corinthians 2:11) But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than
