WORD EXPLOSION 2024| DAY 6| RATIONALIZE GOD'S WORD| with CHIMDI & FUNKE OHAHUNA. John 1: 8 (Phi) Welcome to another episode of WE'24, where we dive deep into the meaning of personal and its significance in our relationship with God. In today's episode, we will be exploring the idea that being personal also means being rational and self-conscious, and how this plays a crucial role in our faith journey. When we think of the word 'personal', we often associate it with something or someone that is close to us, intimate, and unique. However, the Bible also sheds light on another aspect of being a personal witness to the Light, one that involves our rational thinking and self-awareness. In the Bible, we see that John the Baptist was described as a personal witness. This means that he was not just a witness, but a rational and self-conscious one. This is a vital aspect to note, as it shows that our faith in God is not solely based on emotions or feelings, but also on our ability to think and reason. Our hearts, which is often referred to as the spirit man, is the center of everything. It is where our faith resides, and where we connect with God. In the New Testament, the word 'heart' is often used to refer to the core or center of our being, which is our spirit. However, in the Old Testament, there are instances where the word 'heart' refers to the mind. This shows us that our minds, or our rational thinking, also plays a crucial role in our faith. The Bible mentions that the heart of man is deceitful and desperately wicked. This is a reminder that our minds, and our thoughts, can often lead us astray if not aligned with God's truth. But this does not mean that our rational thinking is not important. It is essential in our faith journey. When we receive the Spirit of God, He communicates faith to us, and we are then able to confess and live out that faith. This shows that our human faith is still needed, even though it is limited. As believers, we are called to live by faith, not by our senses. However, our senses are also important and necessary. We cannot deny the fact that we are physical beings, and our senses play a vital role in our daily lives. But as believers, we are called to live in the Lord Jesus, and not solely rely on our senses. In the Garden of Eden, before the fall of man, God could reason with man, and man could rationalize His words. This shows us that the word of God was not mysterious or hidden, but plain and understandable. However, after sin entered the world, man's rationalizing ability was still present, as seen when the Holy Spirit reproves the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment. This ability to rationalize is rooted in our conscience, which is a gift from God. God does not want to be coded or hidden from us. He desires a relationship with us, and any attempt to code Him only leads to cultism. Before sin, man was able to understand and rationalize the word of God, and even after the fall, this ability remains. This is why the Holy Spirit can still reprove man and convict man of sin. In conclusion, being personal not only means having an intimate relationship with God, but it also involves our rational thinking and self-awareness. Our minds and senses are not to be disregarded in our faith journey, but rather, they should be aligned with God's truth. Let us strive to have a personal relationship with God, one that involves our hearts, minds, and senses. Thank you for tuning in to our podcast. We hope this episode has shed some light on the significance of being personal in our relationship with God.

BIBLE STUDY| MIRACLES OF JESUS SERIES.|THE FOURTH MIRACLE OF JESUS pt.10| WHAT DO SOUL WINNERS/ FISHERSOFMEN UNDERSTAND?| CHIMDI OHAHUNA.   The story of Jesus taking his disciples to Bethsaida is a powerful and important lesson for all Christians. It is a lesson that speaks to the very core of our faith and our purpose as followers of Christ. In this blog post, we will explore the significance of this event and how it relates to the call for all believers to be fishers of men. In the town of Bethsaida, Jesus performed a great miracle by feeding thousands of people with just five loaves of bread and two fish. This was a remarkable display of his power and compassion, but there is a deeper meaning to this event that we must not overlook. It was in this same place that Jesus told Peter, 'Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.' (Matthew 4:19) This statement holds great significance, as it reveals two important aspects of the Christian faith and the church – shepherding and soul winning. Shepherding refers to the caring, feeding, nurturing, and growing of the flock. This is an essential aspect of the Christian faith as we are called to love and care for one another as brothers and sisters in Christ. On the other hand, soul winning is the act of bringing new souls into the family of God through Christ Jesus. This is the mission that Jesus gave to his disciples and to all believers – to go into the world and make disciples of all nations. (Matthew 28:19) Just as a human needs two legs to stand balanced, the church and the Christian faith also need the balance of both shepherding and soul winning. Without one, the other cannot thrive. This is why Jesus took his disciples to Bethsaida, to show them the importance of both aspects and how they work together to fulfill the mission of the church. In Luke chapter 5, we see the disciples struggling to catch fish all night, but with no success. However, when Jesus tells them to cast their nets again, they catch a great number of fish. This is a powerful lesson for us as soul winners. It shows us that our efforts in soul winning are not dependent on our own abilities, but on the power and direction of God. Just as Peter kept trying until Jesus came to give the command, we must also keep trying and never give up on sharing the good news of Christ with others. Another important lesson from this event is that soul winning is God's work, while evangelism (casting or laying down the net) is man's work. This understanding takes the pressure off of us as believers, as we know that it is ultimately God who will win the soul. Our job is simply to be obedient and share the message of salvation with others. It is also essential to note that Jesus knows more about soul winning and discipleship than we could ever know. We must never get to a point where we think we are professionals or experts in soul winning. As Peter, a professional fisherman, failed to catch fish that night, we must also recognize that our human abilities are limited, and it is only through God's power and guidance that we can truly be effective in bringing souls to Christ. The story of Jesus taking his disciples to Bethsaida is a hands-on experience that teaches us the importance of both shepherding & soul winning in the Christian faith. It reminds us that our efforts in soul winning are not about our abilities, but about being obedient to God's call. As we launch into the deep and bring in the souls to the family of God remember, God who ultimately wins the soul and we’re simply vessels for his work.

WORD EXPLOSION 2024| DAY 5|SPEAK DIRECT THROUGH CHRIST| with CHIMDI & FUNKE OHAHUNA. John 1: 8 (Phi) In this podcast, we will be exploring the concept of direct communication with God and how it is essential for our spiritual growth and relationship with Him. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines the word 'personal' as something that is carried out between individuals directly, without any intermediaries. This phrase perfectly encapsulates the importance of direct communication with God.   We often find ourselves seeking confirmation and signs from God indirectly, hoping to receive a message from Him. However, this approach can hinder our spiritual growth and distance us from God. As Christians, we should strive to reach a level where we can hear God directly, without the need for confirmations or signs.   The ultimate example of direct communication between God and man is the revelation of Jesus, the Light, to John the Baptist. This communication did not require any intermediaries; it was a direct and personal encounter between God the Father and His messenger. This highlights the importance of having a close and direct relationship with God.   As we grow in our faith, we should outgrow the need for confirmations and signs and instead rely on the voice of the Holy Spirit and the inner witness to confirm what the scriptures are telling us. This direct communication with God is a sign of spiritual maturity and strengthens our relationship with Him.   Unfortunately, in today's world, we often find ourselves getting farther from God while seeking indirect means of hearing from Him. We are constantly looking for confirmations and signs when all God wants is for us to be close to Him. He desires a direct relationship with us, where He can be our source, sustainer, and everything else.   Just like a good marriage thrives on direct communication, our relationship with God also thrives on direct communication. Jesus, the final sacrifice for our sins, has bridged the gap between us and God. We no longer need offerings and sacrifices to get God's attention because Jesus' sacrifice has already gotten His attention. This act of love and sacrifice has opened the door for us to have direct access to God anytime, any day.   The objective of this session is to let every listener know God desires a direct relationship with us. He wants us to come to Him directly, without any intermediaries, and have a personal and intimate conversation with Him. Let us strive to outgrow the need for confirmations and signs, and instead, rely on direct communication with God through the Holy Spirit. Jesus has paid the ultimate sacrifice for us to have this direct relationship with God, let us embrace it and praise Him forever.

WORD EXPLOSION 2024| DAY 4|PRESENTING CHRIST| with CHIMDI & FUNKE OHAHUNA. John 1: 8 (Phi)   Welcome to this episode where we dive into the deep and profound truth of the Godhead and our relationship with Him. We explored the concept of how the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit work together to reveal the true nature of Jesus Christ. The Godhead is one person, but each person has their own distinct functions and roles, just like how we as humans have a spirit, soul, and body. The spirit connects with the spiritual world, the soul with the intellectual world, and the body with the physical world. And just like how the body is necessary for the spirit and soul to function on earth, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit work together to reveal the fullness of Christ to us. As we continue to learn more about Jesus, we also come to know the Father and the Holy Spirit. It is a continuous journey of revelation and unveiling, and we can never know enough. Our ultimate desire as witnesses of Jesus Christ should be for Him to be revealed to us by the Father God. But how can we know the deep things of the Father? We cannot rely on mere human understanding or teachings. As a pointer to Jesus, we cannot reveal these deep things to others. Only the Holy Spirit, who dwells within us, can reveal the deep things of the Father. This is why it is crucial to build a strong relationship with the Holy Spirit.   Who is Jesus on the inside of you? He is the one who will reveal the deep things of the Father to you. And these revelations may be personal and unique to each individual. They may not need to be shared with others, but they will guide you in your walk with the Father.   In his letter to the Corinthians, Paul reminds us of the sweet fellowship and communion we have with the Holy Spirit. While we often seek the grace and love of God, we tend to neglect this vital aspect of our relationship with Him. The grace of God is like the outer court, the love of God the inner court, and the sweet fellowship is the holiest of all. It is the most intimate and personal connection we can have with the Godhead. So let us not take this sweet fellowship for granted. Let us seek to build a deeper relationship with the Holy Spirit, who will reveal the deep things of the Father to us.

WORD EXPLOSION 2024| DAY 3 |PRESENTING CHRIST| with CHIMDI & FUNKE OHAHUNA. John 1: 8 (Phi)   In this podcast, we will delve into the powerful statement made by Jesus in Acts 1:8, 'You shall be my witnesses from Jerusalem to Judea, Samaria, and to the uttermost parts of the earth.' This statement holds great significance for us as Christians, as it not only defines our role in spreading the message of Christ, but also sheds light on the true nature of witnessing.   The early church was known as Christianos, which means followers of Christ. They were called this because they were witnesses. But what does it truly mean to be a witness? As we explore this question, we will discover that our role as witnesses is not to reveal Christ, but to present Him to the world.   It is important to understand that no human witness can reveal Christ to anyone. No matter how eloquent or persuasive we may be, we cannot reveal Christ to someone's heart. This is because the revelation of Christ comes from God Himself. As the apostle Paul writes in Galatians 1:15-16, 'But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb and called me through His grace, to reveal His Son in me, that I might preach Him among the Gentiles.'   We may do our best to teach and preach the gospel, but until Christ is revealed to someone, our efforts will be in vain. I recall a mentee of mine who attended church for years without truly understanding the message of Christ. But when he sat under my ministry, the revelation of Christ came to him. It was not my words that revealed Christ, but the Holy Spirit working in his heart.   As witnesses, our role is to present Christ to the world. We are called to share the good news of salvation, but it is ultimately up to God to reveal His Son to those who hear. We are simply vessels used by God to spread His message.   There are countless witnesses for the Lord Jesus, but this number alone cannot reveal Him to the world. Only the Father God can do that. As John 1:33 states, 'I did not know Him, but He who sent me to baptize with water said to me, ‘Upon whom you see the Spirit descending, and remaining on Him, this is He who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.''   It is the Holy Spirit who convicts and convinces people to receive Jesus as their Lord and Savior. This is why soul winning is not our job. Our job is to preach the gospel, and trust in the Father God to reveal Jesus to those who hear.   In this podcast, we will also explore the importance of the Holy Spirit in the process of witnessing. As Jesus said in John 16:8, 'And when He has come, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment.' It is the Holy Spirit who works in the hearts of people, convicting them of their need for a Savior and revealing the truth of Christ.   As we conclude, let us remember that our role as witnesses is not to reveal Christ, but to present Him to the world. We are called to share the gospel and trust in God to do the rest. So let us be faithful in our witness and trust in the power of the Holy Spirit to bring about the revelation of Christ to those around us.

WORD EXPLOSION 2024| DAY2 |THE HOLY SPIRIT, NOT FLESH &BLOOD| with CHIMDI & FUNKE OHAHUNA. John 1: 8 (Phi) In our previous episode, we focused on the example of John the Baptist, who had a private and individual encounter with the Father. This encounter allowed him to witness about the Messiah Jesus on a personal level. We also discussed the concept of the word of God walking and working, and how it is possible to see Jesus but not recognize Him if we lack a personal relationship with the Holy Spirit. This revelation opened our eyes to the importance of connecting with the Holy Spirit in order to live in unity and have the same mindsets as Christ. we will be exploring a powerful truth that is often overlooked in our understanding of Christianity. Peter, one of Jesus' closest disciples, When Jesus asked his disciples who they thought he was, Peter answered, 'You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.' Jesus then tells Peter that this revelation did not come from flesh and blood, but from the Father in heaven. This statement is a powerful reminder that we, as humans, cannot fully comprehend the depths of who Jesus is. This truth is further emphasized in the book of Matthew 16 verse 17, where Jesus says, 'Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by my Father in heaven.' This Scripture shows us that even though Peter spent a significant amount of time with Jesus, it was not enough for him to fully understand his identity. It was only through the revelation of the Father that Peter was able to declare that Jesus is the Son of God. This same truth applies to John the Baptist, who also did not receive the revelation of Jesus from flesh and blood. Despite being the one who baptized Jesus and having a close relationship with him, John did not fully understand Jesus' identity until the Holy Spirit revealed it to him. This shows us that even those who were closest to Jesus could not grasp the fullness of who he was through human understanding. As believers, we must understand that it is not our job to reveal Jesus to others. We can point people to him and present his teachings, but it is the Holy Spirit who reveals Jesus to us. As a teacher or minister of the gospel, it is futile to try and reveal Jesus to others through our own efforts. This is because flesh and blood can never fully comprehend the depth and complexity of who Jesus is. In fact, in the same Scripture, we see that the disciples were only able to reveal what flesh and blood had told them. Some thought Jesus was Elijah, some a prophet, and some even thought he was John the Baptist. This is because they were operating on a flesh and blood level, relying on human understanding and perceptions. But the revelation of the Father goes beyond what flesh and blood can comprehend. It is a deep, personal knowledge of Jesus that can only come from the Holy Spirit. This is why Jesus tells Peter that he is blessed, because he received this revelation from the Father. As children of God, we must not rely on flesh and blood to understand Jesus. We must seek the Holy Spirit and allow him to reveal Jesus to us. This is the only way we can truly know and understand the depth of his love, his sacrifice, and his teachings. In conclusion, we must remember that flesh and blood cannot reveal Jesus. It is only through the Holy Spirit that we can truly know him. Let us seek the Father for a deeper revelation of Jesus and allow the Holy Spirit to guide us in our understanding.

WORD EXPLOSION 2024| DAY1 | PERSONAL CONVICTION| with CHIMDI & FUNKE OHAHUNA. Welcome to the premiere episode of WORD EXPLOSION 2024, where we delve deeper into the meaning of John chapter one verse eight. Last year, we explored various translations of this verse in an attempt to gain a better understanding of its significance. Today, we will focus on the phrase 'personal witness to that Light' and its implications. In the Basic American Standard translation, the verse reads, '...he was not himself, the Light.' The International Authorized Version says, '...this man was not the Light.' And the Phillips translation states, '...a personal witness to that Light.' These slight variations in language may seem insignificant, but they actually shed light on the true meaning of this verse. The word that stands out in the Phillips translation is 'personal.' In the King James version, it simply states that John was sent to bear witness. But in the Phillips translation, the word 'personal' is added, emphasizing the intimate and individual nature of this witness. It speaks of a one-on-one relationship, with no third party or intermediary involved. This concept of a personal witness is crucial in understanding the relationship between God and man. From the very beginning, God desired a personal relationship with us. He created us in His image and walked and talked with Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. However, after the fall of man, this personal relationship was lost. But God did not give up on us. Throughout history, He has been seeking to restore that intimate connection with us. In the Old Testament, we see this through the use of offerings and sacrifices as a means of communication with God. However, these were not enough to fully restore the personal relationship that God desired. It wasn't until Jesus came to earth and died for our sins that this personal relationship was fully restored. Through His sacrifice, we are able to have a direct and personal relationship with God. We no longer need to go through a third party or rely on offerings and sacrifices to communicate with Him. We have been given the privilege to come before God as His children, with all the rights and privileges that come with that. This is what makes the word 'personal' in this verse so significant. It reminds us of the depth of God's love for us and His desire for a personal and intimate relationship with each and every one of us. It also serves as a reminder that this relationship cannot be taken away from us. It is for our use and enjoyment, and nothing can separate us from the love of God. As we reflect on this verse, let us remember the importance of a personal relationship with God. Let us never take for granted the sacrifice that was made for us to have this personal connection with Him. And let us strive to deepen our personal relationship with Him through prayer, reading His Word, and living out our faith in our daily lives. Thank you for joining us on this journey of exploring the depth and beauty of God's Word. We hope this episode has given you a deeper understanding of John chapter one verse eight and its significance in our relationship with God.

SWEET MELODIES | FUNKE OHAHUNA| BIBLE READING| PRAYERS| EXHORTATION Bible verse Emphasis:-  " Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face. "Psalm 5: 8. The term for the word "lead" in Hebrew refers to lead, to guide, transport, bestow, bring, govern, guide, lead (forth), put, and straiten. So, when King David prayed in the morning saying "Lead me, O LORD," he was saying; ~ bestow upon me your righteousness (gift of righteousness), Rom 5:17 "For if, through one man, death ruled because of that man’s offense, how much more will those who receive such overflowing grace and the gift of righteousness rule in life because of one man, Jesus the Messiah!" ~ bring me / transport me in your righteousness as I journey through today by implication he prayed for God to escort and accompany him, ~ govern me in Your righteousness means O LORD let your righteousness serve as a precedent or deciding principle for me always. Let Your righteousness control, direct, and/or strongly influence my actions and conduct always. Let your righteousness preside over me and refrain me from every path contrary to the righteousness of God. ~ guide me in your righteousness means let Your righteousness provide me with guiding information as I carry out my daily activities in the presence of my enemies. ~ put in me your righteousness that is, O LORD press, force, or impose the acceptance of Your righteousness upon me. It shows how desperate and intentional King David was about being led in the righteousness of God daily. He was not ignorant of the desires of the sensual & carnal man, who would know what is right and still choose to do the wrong thing. ‭‭Romans‬ ‭7:15‭-‬25‬ ‭TPT‬‬ [15] I’m a mystery to myself,  for I want to do what is right, but end up doing what my moral instincts condemn. [16] And if my behavior is not in line with my desire, my conscience still confirms the excellence of the law. [17] And now I realize that it is no longer my true self doing it, but the unwelcome intruder of sin in my humanity. [18] For I know that nothing good lives within the flesh of my fallen humanity. The longings to do what is right are within me, but willpower is not enough to accomplish it.   [19] My lofty desires to do what is good are dashed when I do the things I want to avoid. [20] So if my behavior contradicts my desires to do good, I must conclude that it’s not my true identity doing it, but the unwelcome intruder of sin hindering me from being who I really am. [21] Through my experience of this principle, I discovered that even when I want to do good, evil is ready to sabotage me. [22] Truly, deep within my true identity, I love to do what pleases God. [23] But I discern another power operating in my humanity, waging a war against the moral principles of my conscience and bringing me into captivity as a prisoner to the “law” of sin—this unwelcome intruder in my humanity. [24] What an agonizing situation I am in! So who has the power to rescue this miserable man from the unwelcome intruder of sin and death?   [25] I give all my thanks to God, for his mighty power has finally provided a way out through our Lord Jesus, the Anointed One! So if left to myself, the flesh is aligned with the law of sin, but now my renewed mind is fixed on and submitted to God’s righteous principles. ~ straiten me in Your righteousness- hem me in (confine me) in Your righteousness. As we become more aware of God's righteousness confining us we become more and more deficient in the practice of the works of the flesh. When we are straitened in & by the righteousness of the LORD we will be delivered from enemies that straiten visions & purposes. The righteousness of the LORD delivers from every interference and limitation to fulfillment of purpose. Discover in this series what is the righteousness of God and the reason why every believer in Christ needs the divine leading of God. Listen to this episode in full now.

BIBLE STUDY| MIRACLES OF JESUS SERIES.|THE FOURTH MIRACLE OF JESUS pt.2 | THE FEEDING OF 5,000 MEN WITH 5 LOAVES OF BREAD AND 2 FISHES| CHIMDI OHAHUNA. Mark 6:31-34 " And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.  And they departed into a desert place by ship privately.  And the people saw them departing, and many knew him, and ran afoot thither out of all cities, and outwent them, and came together unto him. And Jesus, when he came out, saw much people, and was moved with compassion toward them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd: and he began to teach them many things." The perspective / view a person has about people around them will determine their level of compassion towards them. Christ  Jesus did not see an impressive crowd when the multitude came to Him, He saw a crowd who were lacking spiritual leadership and guidance. When Jesus described people as "sheep without a shepherd," He was expressing compassion and concern for the crowds who had gathered to hear Him speak. This expression reveals that the people were lost, vulnerable, and in need of guidance and care; because sheep need a shepherd to lead and protect them. So, Christ Jesus spoke of the spiritual guidance and leadership that the people were lacking. The crowd sought a loving and wise figure to provide direction and comfort to their lives. The scripture also reveals Jesus as the Good Shepherd who offers guidance, protection, and salvation to all who follow Him (Psalms 23, John 10:11). This study emphasizes the important connection between our perspective as believers, our hearts, and our ability to show compassion. We understand that, the way we see others directly influences our attitudes and feelings toward them. As believers in Christ, If we view people through a lens of judgment, negativity, or prejudice, our hearts may become closed off and lacking in compassion. However, if we strive to see others as God sees them, with understanding, love, and forgiveness, our hearts will be filled with compassion. Furthermore, this Bible Study brings to light the need to align our vision with God's perspective as it is key to developing true compassion. When we see others through the eyes of God, we begin to see their value, worth, and inherent dignity as God's creation and not trees that can be felled. This shift in perspective allows us to understand and empathize with others, leading to genuine compassion that flows from the heart. Listen to this study that conveys that by adopting God's perspective in our interactions with others, compassion becomes a natural and inevitable outcome of our regenerated & renewed vision.

BELIEVERS BE ATTITUDES Series| BEATITUDES (6)| CHIMDI OHAHUNA. Bible Text: Matthew 5  1  And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:  2  And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,  3  Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4  Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. 5. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.  6  Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. 7  Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.  8  Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. The purpose of the teasers on the Beatitudes given by Jesus is to make us know that, our situations or circumstances don't make us blessed, it is who we are that makes us blessed. These blessings are reserved for all who are saved. To be pure in heart means to have a clean & pure heart and this happens when the blood of Jesus washed away our sins. Only the blood of Jesus, the blood of the Lamb, can wash the heart and make it white as snow (Isaiah 1). The pure in heart are those washed by the Blood of the Lamb and are blessed. Every believer must understand that it isn't enough to be spiritually fruitful, we must be fruitful in Soul/mind and body. "Purity is not just a state of being; it's a continuous process. Like silver refined in a furnace, our souls and bodies are purified through the word of God and life's trials. What you will learn in this episode; This teaching on the Beatitudes specifically focuses on "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God". In this teaching you will learn; ¶ Detailed explanation of the concept of having a pure heart in the context of spirit, soul, and body. ¶ Emphasis on the purification process through the word of God and reflection of God's image in the believer's soul and body. ¶ Discussion of the Beatitudes as a reflection of the blessed state of those in the Lord Jesus. ¶ Exploration of the continuous process of renewal and purification for the soul and body. ¶ Parallels are drawn between the purification of the heart and the process of refining silver in a furnace. ¶ Encouragement for listeners to pray for a pure heart and allow God to work on purifying their mind, soul, and body. ¶ Prayer for purification of the soul and body, emphasizing the reflection of God's image in believers Kindly receive the Invitation for salvation today, we encourage every listener to accept Jesus as their personal savior. Listen to this episode as a family and learn great lessons from the sixth Beatitude taught by our Lord Jesus Christ.

BELIEVERS BE ATTITUDES Series| BEATITUDES (5)| CHIMDI OHAHUNA. Bible Text: Matthew 5  1  And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:  2  And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,  3  Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4  Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. 5. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.  6  Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. The first "be attitude" of the believer is to need God very much as a child of God. Never have enough of Christ. The second "be attitude" (Beatitude) reveals how we enjoy comfort via the person of the Holy Spirit. The third reveals how Meekness helps us in times of emotional highs to not curse God or hurt others. Meekness speaks/reveals the believer's absolute faith in God. The fourth "be attitude"- Hunger for Righteousness (HFR) & Thirst for Righteousness (TFR). TFR & HFR are needed to fully live the life of Christ and help us work the works of God. In this episode, we considered the fifth "be attitude". Beloved, the mercy of God has no hidden agenda, His show of kindness is not a currency He uses to get a man to do His bidding and enforce His will when one is not willing to do His will. If the mercy of God is not a currency, what then is it? Find out this and more as you listen to this episode as a family and learn great lessons from these Beatitude taught by our Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus is Lord.

BELIEVERS BE ATTITUDES Series| BEATITUDES (4)| CHIMDI OHAHUNA. Bible Text: Matthew 5  1  And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:  2  And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,  3  Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4  Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. 5. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.  6  Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. The first "be attitude" of the believer is to need God very much as a child of God. Never have enough of Christ. The second "be attitude" (Beatitude) reveals how we enjoy comfort via the person of the Holy Spirit. The third reveals how Meekness helps us in times of emotional highs to not curse God or hurt others. Meekness speaks/reveals the believer's absolute faith in God. This episode covers the fourth "be attitude"- Hunger for Righteousness (HFR) & Thirst for Righteousness (TFR). The blessing of God is made available to believers in different categories. The manifestation of the blessing is the proof that indeed we've been blessed. The thirst for righteousness TFR is the sincere milk of the word of God. Drinking fluid cannot take the place of food in the body. You may be hydrated but not nourished. The thirst for righteousness is the need to be hydrated in the spiritual. Hunger for righteousness, HFR gives us strength. If our strength fails... Is needed to stand in the evil day & the devices of the enemy. This is needed to exercise & appropriate the righteousness of God. HFR is the source of empowerment to exercise our place in Christ Jesus. Aldo used to pull down strongholds. TFR & HFR are needed to fully live the life of Christ and help us work the works of God. Pray for grace to discern when you TFR & HFR, so we can go for filling & more filling with the righteousness of God. Listen to this episode as a family and learn great lessons from the first Beatitude taught by our Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus is Lord.

SWEET MELODIES | FUNKE OHAHUNA| BIBLE READING| PRAYERS| EXHORTATION Psalm 16:8 I have set the LORD always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. To set the LORD always before me is; # to agree with the will of God, # be conscious of the nature of God in you # become more like God daily, # Come up to the level of God, # To resemble God in every sense/ area. Beloved, we are in times that only agree with the will of God, being conscious of the nature of God in us, yearning to become more like Christ daily, growing in our relationship and fellowship with God, and making all efforts to resemble God in every sense will aid us to stand the various deceptions and evil fashioned against to growth, edification & build-up of the body of Christ. Like the Psalmist David, who made it his responsibility to ALWAYS set the LORD before him and was never on the losing side in any battle; every believer in Christ must do the same in order to manifest as more than conquerors. Jesus has overcome this world, the Scripture says,  "These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world."John 16:33 Being conscious of the nature of God in us, - 1 John 4:4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. Come up to the level of God, become more like God daily 1 John 2:14 I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one. Always speaks of continuity, perpetuity, constantly, and regular (daily) sacrifice. Hence, the responsibility of setting the LORD always before us is not a joke. Eph 6:13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

BIBLE STUDY| MIRACLES OF JESUS SERIES.|THE THIRD MIRACLE OF JESUS pt.9 | THE BACKGROUND OF THE POOL OF BETHESDA| CHIMDI OHAHUNA. The third miracle done by Jesus as recorded by the gospel of John is the healing of the man who was sick for 38 years at the pool of Bethesda. This was recorded in the Book of John 5:1-9. The location of the miracle was - a pool by the sheep market, in the Hebrew tongue known as Bethesda. Bethesda had five porches at Jerusalem. There is no careless or reckless information in the Bible, every information is vital and purposeful. Hence, we will begin this study by examining the following locations identified in the third miracle of Jesus, namely; 1. The pool of Bethesda 2. The sheep market 3. Five porches at the pool Previously, we understood that this miracle of Jesus at the pool of Bethesda also teaches us that when we are face to face with the mercy of God, Actions replace Thoughts of Self-pity (mental strongholds expressed in words).  When you are face to face with the mercy of God, He (the mercy of God) IS THE MAN WE ALWAYS NEEDED TO HELP US, as a result, excuses are useless to Christ. In this session of Bible Study, you will discover at least six characteristics of this sick man at the pool of Bethesda that describe the way mankind (both saved & unsaved) relates with God and handles miracles received via the Mercy of God. We request that you follow this study keenly and do not miss out on any episode in this series.
