JESUS CAME TO SHOW US HOW TO LOVE OTHERS

I was walking around when i saw a cashier hand this little boy his money back, the boy couldn't have been more than 5 or 6 years old.

The Cashier said, 'I'm sorry, but you don't have enough money to buy this doll.'' The little boy turned to the old woman next to him, ''Granny, are you sure I don't have enough money?'' She replied, ''You know that you don't have enough money to buy this doll, my dear.'' Then she asked him to stay there for just 5 minutes while she went to look around. She left quickly.

The little boy was still holding the doll in his hand. Finally, I walked toward him and I asked him who he wished to give this doll to. 'It's the doll that my sister loved most and wanted so much for Christmas. She was sure that Santa Claus would bring it to her.' I replied to him that maybe Santa Claus would bring it to her after all, and not to worry.

But he replied to me sadly. 'No, Santa Claus can't bring it to her where she is now. I have to give the doll to my mommy so that she can give it to my sister when she goes there.' His eyes were so sad while saying this, 'My Sister has gone to be with God. Daddy says that Mommy is going to see God very soon too, so I thought that she could take the doll with her to give it to my sister.'' My heart nearly stopped. The little boy looked up at me and said, 'I told daddy to tell mommy not to go yet. I need her to wait until I come back from the mall.'

Then he showed me a very nice photo of himself. He was laughing. He then told me 'I want mommy to take my picture with her so she won't forget me.' 'I love my mommy and I wish she didn't have to leave me, but daddy says that she has to go to be with my little sister.' Then he looked again at the doll with sad eyes, very quietly.

I quickly reached for my wallet and said to the boy. 'Suppose we check again, just in case you do have enough money for the doll!'' OK' he said, 'I hope I do have enough.' I added some of my money to his without him seeing and we started to count it. There was enough for the doll and even some spare money.

The little boy said, 'Thank you God for giving me enough money!' Then he looked at me and added, 'I asked last night before I went to sleep for God to make sure I had enough money to buy this doll, so that mommy could give it to my sister. He heard me!'' 'I also wanted to have enough money to buy a white rose for my mommy, but I didn't dare to ask God for too much. But He gave me enough to buy the doll and a white rose.'' 'My mommy loves white roses.'

A few minutes later, the old lady returned and I left with my basket. I finished my shopping in a totally different state of mind from when I started. I couldn't get the little boy out of my mind. Then I remembered a local newspaper article two days ago, which mentioned a drunk man in a truck, who hit a car occupied by a young woman and a little girl. The little girl died right away and the mother was left in a critical state. The family had to decide whether to pull the plug on the life-sustaining machine because the young woman would not be able to recover from the coma. Was this the family of the little boy?

Two days after this encounter with the little boy I read in the newspaper that the young woman had passed away. I couldn't stop myself as I bought a bunch of white roses and I went to the funeral home where the body of the young woman was for people to see and make last wishes before her burial. She was there, in her coffin, holding a beautiful white rose in her hand with the photo of the little boy and the doll placed over her chest.

I left the place, teary-eyed, feeling that my life had been changed forever. The love that the little boy had for his mother and his sister is still, to this day, hard to imagine, and in a fraction of a second, a drunk driver had taken all this away from him.

Now you have 2 choices: (1) Share this (2) Ignore it as if it never touched your heart.

EVERYBODY, BOTH WISE & FOOLISH PEOPLE STILL SEEK JESUS

As we celebrate this Christmas, we continue to look at the circumstances surrounding the birth of Jesus. I've heard sometimes ago that only the wise men were those who went to seek Jesus when he was born, but I want you to know that everybody still seek Jesus. Both wise people as well as foolish, evil and ignorant people still seek Jesus till today. However, what determines whether somebody is wise or foolish, evil and ignorant, is what you want to do with Jesus whenever you find him.

Matthew 2:1-8 says that when Jesus was born, those who are wise from the east came looking for him so they could worship him. But at the same time, King Herod also looked for him so he could kill him. Even today, whether you know it or not, people are operating in these two categories as far as the Lord Jesus Christ is concerned. Wise people are seeking Jesus to worship and serve him, and ignorant people are seeking Jesus in order to kill him, just as what those wicked and ignorant people are doing to Christians now. Yes, when you persecute any child of God, you persecute Jesus, and when you do what Jesus says, you serve and worship him.

Therefore, all you wise people who are seeking him to worship him, Know that Jesus is the light of the world, and may this great light shine in all your dark places in Jesus name. Please note this very fact, that those who looked for Jesus to destroy him were not able to destroy him because he is indestructible. Thus, it's time for them to stop the persecution of Christians, because no amount of persecution will be able to put out the light of Christ, and as for you who know him and seek to worship him, because you are hidden in Jesus Christ, no weapon that is formed or fashioned against you shall prosper, and every tongue that shall rise against you in judgement, you shall condemn, for this is the heritage of the servants of the Lord. Have a merry Christmas and remain blessed. Jesus loves yo and I do too.

WHAT A HUSBAND NEEDS FROM A WIFE IS NEVER SEX

WHAT A HUSBAND NEEDS FROM A WIFE IS NEVER SEX.
By: B.I.C. Abeiku Okai.

Sex is an important element in marriage and until there is sexual intercourse between a husband and a wife, the marriage is not yet spiritually recognised. This shows how important sex is in marriage.

When you look at how agressive men are towards sex you may think that what a man needs from a woman is sex. Of course, if he has not married you yet or he does not really intend to marry you what he will need from you is nothing above your body. But if he really intends to marry you or if you guys are already married sex is never what he needs from you - maybe let me say it better; "WHAT A MAN NEEDS MOST FROM A WOMAN IS NOT SEX."

Many young girls think because they are sexually active and experience they will easily be married and have their husbands loving them. And when a man approaches for marriage they think the greatest asset they have to show the man is sex. Others also think once they are giving out their bodies it means they are giving out the best for which reason they will be chosen above all.

There is this young girl who is very beautiful and sexually active. Due to that she thought sex is all that matters to a man. Ironically, she struggled for long before finally getting married. Her sexual dexterity could not win her the heart of a man until out of the blue and reason beyong imagination a very handsome good man married her. The wedding was grand and her tears were now gone. Unfortunately only a year after the wedding the marriage fell on rocks. Within five years three different men came her way but none could stay.

The problem was simple. She thought sex was all that matters so she would never submit. But submission is what men need, not sex. It is time for our young ladies to know that when a man is ready to marry he will not look out for a woman who will satisfy his sex drive but a woman who will submit herself to him. Excuse my language, "every woman has vagina but not every woman has humility." So when you are a humble woman, you are an expensive jewelry. And a man of integrity will fear to lose you.

What does the holy 📖say, "wife, submit to your husband." The reason is that a man's true love goes out only for a woman who is submissive. Your beauty cannot make another woman ugly but your humility can let him love you above all other women.

Sadly, many youngs ladies in our days call submission as "control." And you will hear them saying in tiny romantic voices, "As for me I don't want any man to control me oh." If you don't want to submit don't think of marriage because no man in his right sense will offer his love to a woman whose heart is higher than his height, no matter how short he may be.

When a woman bows her knee before a man, the man will automatically bow his heart before her love. And love her sincerely. There are, of course, recalcitrant men who will not value women of humility but I tell you that every true man does not need sex, but submission. It is submission that truly makes you a romantic wife. So be the African queen you want to be but when it comes to dealing with your husband, play the role of a humble maid. Don't forget that it is the spirit of humility that has caused many maids to hijack their mistresses' husbands. Be your man's queen and be his maid also.

I wish you all the best as you submit in your relationship and marriage. May God bless you with good marriage, my dear sister.

Forwards this to any female friend you care about. Have a nice day.

DO YOU REALLY KNOW GOD???

When you look at how you are following God, how you are handling the things of God, and how you react to your own situations, can you boldly say that you have known God? 
Please, hear this, God is not looking for those who go to church, because a person can go to church and still does not know God, but what God is actually looking for, are those who will know him.
Jeremiah 9.23-24 says, Thus saith the Lord , Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches:  But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the Lord which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith the Lord.
Very sure. Therefore, beloved, try to know God, and believe me, when you truly understand and know God, you'll also known that God has solutions to all your problems.
That's why as you are here in this group, our purpose is to help you and everyone to understand and know whom God really is, so that you could have access to everything that God has purposed for you in life, and may God help you as you seek to know him more and more in Jesus name.
You are blessed. Jesus loves you and I do too.

THE BARBER'S NOTION ABOUT GOD

A GOOD MESSAGE FOR EVANGELISM

***MUST READ***

A man went to a barber shop to have his hair cut and his beard trimmed, as the barber began to work, they started a good conversation; they talked about so many things and various subjects. When they eventually touched the subject of God, the barber said: “I don’t believe that God exists.” “Why do you say that?” asked the customer. The barber said; “Well you just have to go out in the street to realize that God doesn’t exist; Tell me, if God exists, would there be so many sick people? Would there be abandoned children? If God existed, there would be neither suffering nor pain. I can’t imagine a loving God who would allow all of these things.” The customer thought for a moment, but didn’t respond because he didn’t want to start an argument. The barber finished his job and the customer left the shop. Just after he left the barber shop, he saw a man in the street with long, stringy, dirty hair and an untrimmed beard; He looked dirty and unkept. The customer turned back and entered the barber shop again and said to the barber; “You know what? Barbers do not exist.” "How can you say that?" asked the surprised barber. “I am here, and I am a barber, and I just worked on you!” “No!” the customer exclaimed. “Barbers don't exist because if they do, there would be no people with dirty long hair and untrimmed beards, like that man outside.” The barber said; “Ah, but barbers DO exist; what happens is, people don't come to me.” “Exactly”- affirmed the customer; “That’s the point.” God too, DOES exist; But what happens is, people don’t go to Him and do not look for him. GOD DOES EXIST!!!

YOUR PROFILE PICTURE REPRESENTS YOU

A young beautiful lady recently changed her profile picture on Facebook to a well-dressed GOAT. Even though the goat looked nice, very soon, people started laughing as they made their funny comments about the picture. When the lady could no longer endure, she asked, why are you people laughing? Then in my response, I told her that people are laughing because you are not a GOAT, whereas you used a goat to represent yourself. The lady then changed back her profile picture from that of a goat to a very nice picture of herself. The funny comments then stopped, instead, she started receiving compliments, and she became happy again.

Therefore, everyone should know this very important FACT, your profile picture represents YOU, not any other person or thing, and no matter how you like a person, an image or thing, they cannot be you. You are just you, and you are very unique.

Thus, whenever you post anything on Facebook or anywhere, the picture that should be by the side of your post should be YOUR VERY OWN PICTURE, not the picture of your husband or wife, or even your children, or any flower, animal, object or thing, it should not be anything that is not you because what stands by your message represents who you are. Or, how does it feel if you post a very beautiful massage, and a goat bearing your own name stands by that message?

Therefore, let's use Facebook wisely by putting the right profile picture on our walls. All other pictures could go on the cover picture. It's only scammers and fraudulent people who don't want to reveal their identities that always use someone else picture whenever they post anything. So, change any profile picture that is not you today to a very nice picture of yourself. You are fearfully and wonderfully made, Psalm 139:14. You are so much blessed. Jesus loves you and I do too.

IF GOD CAN FIGHT FOR HIS TABLE...

A man who always go to a church began to steal the church table. Whenever he sees that the church has a new table, he always go to the church at midnight and steal the church table, and he has made it a habit.
The church members continue to ask, who is this person that keeps stealing our table? But the thief would not stop, and it got to a point that the church members were no longer comfortable, and started praying.
So one day, at midnight, this man came to the church, enter under the church table, to carry it away as usual, but this time, he could not stand up again, he remained stuck under the table from midnight until morning, when church members started coming to prayer meeting, and the thief was caught, and there was no more stealing of the church tables in that church.
So, if God can fight for his table, how much more you his dear children??? Dearly beloved, you are a child of the most high God. All you need to do, is to place your worries and cares into the able hands of the Almighty God, and he will fight for you. 1 Peter 5:7 says, Casting all your cares upon him, for he cares for you. May you find favour in God's hands today in Jesus name. You are blessed. Jesus loves you and I do too. 

GOD GAVE US FREEWILL TO CHOOSE

What God gave man was freewill to choose between what he wants to do, not freedom to do whatever he wants to do.
In Genesis 3, God had the power to stop Adam and Eve from eating that fruit, but the reason he allowed the serpent to give them the fruit was to test their OBEDIENCE as they use their freewill, and they failed.
In the same way today, as children of God, the reason God allows those temptations to come to you is to test your obedience as you use your freewill.
When the devil enters a woman to dress have-naked in the name of fashion and comes to you, God wants to see your obedience if you can refuse to commit fornication with her. When that man who is not your husband flashes you with money and gifts, God wants to see your obedience if you will not fall and have sex with him in order get those things, and when the devil brings terrible things that will make you angry between you and your spouse, God wants to see your obedience if you will not divorce your spouse. Etc and etc.
Now therefore, understand that what God has said in his word stands forever, and when you disobey him, and thinks that your freewill is freedom, remember, there are consequences, and you must pay for it. Hebrews 10:26-27 says, If we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there retaineth no more sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful looking for of judgment and a fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. 
May God help you to use your freewill wisely, so that you will be partakers of God's kingdom in Jesus name. You are blessed. Jesus loves you and I do too.

DON'T JUST BLAME THEM, IT'S BECAUSE OF IGNORANCE

DON'T JUST BLAME THEM, IT'S BECAUSE OF IGNORANCE
Have you ever asked yourself this question, why is it that many people who receive this gospel of Jesus Christ with joy, and are also very happy to be called children of God, always backslide and fall back into sin?
I have discovered that most people backslide and fall back into sin because of ignorance or lack of knowledge of the word of God.
Thus, don't just blame them, because when they first hear statements like these from Jesus that says, I will not leave nor forsake you, most of the receive it with joy, but when things don't work out the way they expected, due to this ignorance, they quickly give up, backslide and fall.
But God who loves us so much, and is not willing that anyone should perish, in his infinite mercies, has also made this knowledge available to us his children by his Holy Spirit, and we know that whatever Jesus said is true. Yes, Jesus said in John 14:6, I am the way, the truth, and the life.
Therefore, as you are here in this group, to prevent a big fall from grace, don't just do a thing because everyone else is doing it, always ask questions concerning things that are not very clear to you, and the Holy Spirit of God, our Great Teacher will give you answers that will keep you on the right path and help you to remain standing in Jesus name. You are blessed. Jesus loves you and I do too.

JESUS IS THE RIGHT KEY

If the doors to whatever you want to do remain closed, then it's time to check your keys, because you may have the wrong key.
Sure and certain, if you have JESUS, you have the right key, and your closed doors will be opened in Jesus name. 

Now, if you are not saved, listen, I didn't say if you don't go to church, but I said, if you are NOT SAVED, you can do it today so that you can have the right key to open all doors. 

If you are saved, honour God with an overcoming Amen here because you are blessed already. Jesus loves you and I do too.
