Never Late

Colossians  3:1 "If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God."
 3:2 "Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth."

As a Christian, one thing you should understand is that your focus must be different. Your focus must be on those things God has positioned for you. For example, one of the things God has set for you in Christ is constant victory(2Cor2:14), so you must set your priority & focus on seeing victory in every situation, you must not entertain any thought of failure. Well, you may say "Tobi, I've been trusting God for this certain thing in a long time and I haven't seen any positivity", well, it's not over until you win. Until you see the result of what you desire, you don't give up. God has a script written for you, you're like an Actor acting a script and in that script, its not over until you win. The truth about it is many of us give up too soon, we begin to set our focus on the possibility of that thing not happening again or the possibility of failure just setting in, oh No!, you must have a stubborn focus on the things above!. Have you ever watched a football match you expected your team to win, and you got up 90 mins to go when your team trailed 1-0, thinking your team had lost, and in the additional time given, your team equalizes, and then later wins the game, perhaps in extra time or penalties. Friend, in God there is always an " additional" time, that's the time your victory though had tarried manifests. Set your affection on victory, progress, and success. Its never ever over until you win!!!.

Apostle Peter- Running 1

A blend of Bible stories, revelations and fiction (literature license) about Peter's life and somewhat complex choices and decisions. Sit back, relax, cappuccino and enjoy! And Peter was running again, away from the persecution that had once again broken out against the Church. Jesus had been long gone. He missed Him. He still had nostalgia and goose bumps whenever he remembered just how divine Jesus was. He had seen Jesus do a lot of amazing miracles but none quite like the last one- he and his other folks, some 50 of them watched as Jesus levitated into the heavens until no physical eyes could see him again. He said He was going to heaven and of course that was true- Peter knew now by deep conviction that he'd walked with God Himself. And for some reason he thought himself a friend of God. He knew he was going to see Jesus again sometime soon. There was no debate in his heart about this. He loved Jesus or perhaps God- they were one and the same persons to him now. He

Going on to know Him

People easily judge other people when they don't know them. We all may be guilty of this. A Lotta times, we stereotype people by how they look, their dressing and outward mannerisms ever before we hear them speak. I have been shocked many times of how guilty I've been with this. The most recent of such a person I nearly badly stereotyped turned out to be such an incredible person, so different and special in her way and she helped me in many beautiful ways such that we became pretty cool friends in the space of just a few months but this was the same lady I almost thought was way away from my type of friends. We've all made such mistakes so don't look at me that way😶😇. When we were done with the project that brought us together, I offered to take us to an icecream spot- it would probably be the last time we were seeing so it was my way of saying "thanks". There I told her how I had felt about her when I first saw her and she was somewhat unsurprised and sa

PLB GUEST- He solved the sin problem for good!- Jide Akinlua (Epistle of Grace Publications)

He solved the sin problem for good.. 1 John 2:2 ( MSG) The most awesome demonstration of God's loving affection towards a rebellious and fallen human race is the fact that God added humanity to His deity, lived among sinful men and ultimately died the most ghastly death for our sins. I think once in a while we need to be reminded of how guilty we were before God and what would have become of us if Jesus never came. That gruesome death of being crucified on the cross was our death—Yes, we deserved that. To be Crucified, in the ancient Roman world, was considered the most undignifying way to die. In point of fact, crucifixion was  reserved for those who were considered to be outright criminals. The Romans considered it a shame while the Jews saw it as a curse! Yet Jesus who never sinned and never committed a crime was sentenced to die the death of a criminal. Oh! Sweet Jesus! He didn't have to take these suffering and punishment for our sins upon himself but love compelled Hi
