DO YOU LONG FOR SPIRITUAL AWAKENING IN KENYA?

This day 500 years ago, Martin Luther posted 95 theses on the church door in Wittenberg in Germany which sparked PROTESTANT REFORMATION throughout the world. So, as we celebrate 500th Anniversary of PROTESTANT REFORMATION, join with us to pray for SPIRITUAL AWAKENING IN KENYA. Kindly pray with us for all unsaved people in Kenya that God would:
1. Soften their hardened hearts to receive the gospel of Jesus Christ.
2. Illuminate their darkened minds to understand the gospel of Jesus Christ.
3. Open their spiritual blind eyes to ‘see’ the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
4. Unblock their spiritual deaf ears to ‘hear’ the gospel of Jesus Christ.
5. Raise born again believers in Jesus Christ to faithfully and effectively share the gospel of Jesus Christ with them.

Knowing that salvation by GRACE ALONE through FAITH ALONE in JESUS CHRIST ALONE remains the only lasting solution to the problem of spiritual darkness that is engulfing the whole world, there is no better way to celebrate PROTESTANT REFORMATION than to continually and fervently pray for spiritual awakening. Therefore join with us as we fervently pray for spiritual awakening in all the 47counties in Kenya.

But take heed of this caution! This requires fervency, zeal unstoppable and unending sacrifice of your time every day to pray for all these lost souls. Therefore do not get started on this endeavour until you have a clear perspective from the BIBLE of the everlasting punishment which awaits all the unsaved people in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone! A sneak preview of the LENGTH and the MAGNITUDE of the everlasting punishment that awaits all unsaved people in hell will give you the fervency, unstoppable zeal and compassion needed to agonize in prayer for all those who are dangling above the flames of hell just about to plunge there any time. And by the way, some of them are your family members, friends, neighbours and colleagues at work. So, you have every reason to agonize in prayers, fervently praying for eternal salvation of their souls.

Yours In Christ

RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD IS YOURS FOR RECEIVING!

Bible convincingly demonstrates that all human beings are sinners both by nature as well as by choice. That being the case, then the question that follows is, “Can human beings who are sinners by nature as well as by choice become right with God? In other words, can a person who was born a sinner and who has sinned by thoughts, words and deeds have a good loving relationship with God? The answer is “yes” and “no” as we saw today in our verse by verse Bible study in Romans 3:21-26.

The answer is “YES” for a person who abandons their self righteousness and WILLINGLY RECEIVES THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD by putting their faith in Jesus Christ for eternal salvation of their soul. And unfortunately, the answer is “NO” for any person who clings to their self righteousness thereby REFUSING TO RECEIVE THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD which is freely available to them should they choose to put their faith in Jesus Christ to become their personal lord and saviour. This righteousness of God is yours for receiving, have you received it? Please, do not let anything material or immaterial stop you from receiving the free gift of the righteousness of God. It is yours for receiving therefore receive it today, even right now, right where you are! Will you?

Yours in Christ,
Stephen Njoroge Kigo.

ALL HUMAN BEINGS ARE SINNERS IN URGENT NEED OF SALVATION!

This truth is hotly disputed, scathingly attacked and largely ignored. Nevertheless, it is both undeniable and unstoppable. And just as we saw today in our verse by verse Bible study in Romans 3:9-20, wise is the man or woman who willingly allows the mirror of the law to reveal to them that they are sinners in urgent need of salvation thereby pointing them to Jesus Christ for eternal salvation of their souls. Are you one of these wise men and women who have allowed the law to point them to Jesus Christ for eternal salvation of their souls? It is my hope and prayer that if you are not one of them that you will become one of them sooner rather than later. Amen.

Yours in Christ,

THE DANGER OF BEING RELIGIOUS BUT NOT SAVED!

There is great danger that millions of people throughout the whole world face and that is BEING RELIGIOUS BUT NOT SAVED. As we saw yesterday in our verse by verse Bible Study in Romans 2:17-29, these people have false hope in three things. First, they fail to realize that knowing does not equal doing. Secondly, they fail to realize that their good works fall short of God’s standard of righteousness which is being sinless perfect. And thirdly, they trust in RITUALS which symbolize change rather than the REALITY which confirms that a believer’s life has actually been transformed by Jesus Christ having become their personal lord and saviour.

What about you? Could you be religious but not saved? Here are three questions you can use to find out whether you are religious but not saved: (1) Do you trust in what you know rather than what you do? (2) Do you trust in your good works to save you rather than the work that Jesus Christ accomplished for you on the cross when He died and rose again paying in full for all your sins? (3) Do you trust in rituals which symbolize change rather than the reality which confirms that your life has actually been transformed by Jesus Christ having become your personal lord and saviour? Oh that you would right away flee from religion and have a loving relationship with Jesus Christ as your personal lord and saviour! Amen.

Yours in Christ,

ARE YOU READY TO MEET GOD AS YOUR JUDGE OR AS YOUR SAVIOUR?

Judges are either greatly hated or intimately loved depending on how they pass judgments. While human Judges are prone to make erroneous judgments because of not knowing all the facts, that is not the case with Yahweh God—the only Righteous Judge. God judges according to the truth. That is, God judges according to all the facts about who, what, when, where, why and how everything happened. Hence all the judgments of God are fair, righteous and true. Knowing that you cannot hide any one of your deeds or attitude from God, then, the question you ought to ask yourself is whether you are ready to meet Yahweh God as your Judge or as your Saviour. The good news is that God wants to save you so you can meet Him as your Saviour and not as your Judge.

If you already know Jesus Christ as your personal lord and saviour, then, fervently pray for salvation of those who are in danger of meeting Him as their Judge. Pray that God would (1) Soften their hardened hearts, (2) Illuminate their darkened minds, (3) Open their spiritual blind eyes, (4) Unblock their spiritual deaf ears and, (5) Raise many witnesses of Jesus Christ to share the gospel of Christ with them that they might be saved. These and many other truths we gladly gleaned from our verse by verse Bible Study today in Romans 2:1-10. May all praise, glory, honour and thanksgiving be unto our lord and saviour Jesus Christ!

Yours in Christ,

THE BLESSINGS AND THE CURSES OF FREEDOM OF CHOICE

Can God abandon a person and give them up to pursue their sinful lifestyle? Yes, He can! In fact He does this all the time. This is because God gave all human beings freedom of choice. And whatever choice a person makes, be it good or bad, God allows them to make it. In spite of the freedom of choice that God has given to all human beings, GOD ENCOURAGES ALL PEOPLE TO CHOOSE WHAT IS GOOD AND PLEASING TO HIM WHILE STRONGLY URGING THEM TO AVOID WHAT IS EVIL AND AGAINST HIS WILL.

In our verse by verse Bible Study yesterday in Romans 1:24-32, we learnt that when a person chooses to abandon God so that he or she can pursue their sinful lifestyle, God has no option but to grant them their choice. To make the matter worse, when a person abandons God so that they can pursue their sinful lifestyle, they force God to abandon them as well! WHY FORSAKE THE BEST (GOOD RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD) TO GET THE WORST (EVERLASTING PUNISHMENT IN HELL)?

GOD HAS A PLAN AND A PURPOSE FOR YOUR LIFE

Do you know what that plan and purpose for your life is? Do you know what God has set you apart to become by His will? It is of utmost importance for you to know the purpose for your life. And nothing is more important in your life than to know that what you are doing as well as what you are pursuing is by the will of God.

In our verse by verse Bible study today in Romans 1:1-7, we learnt this truth from Apostle Paul who knew and faithfully fulfilled the call that God had upon his life. Likewise, you too can know and faithfully fulfill the call that God has upon your life. It begins by first of all discovering what it is from God who gave it to you!

EXICITING STUDY…

Today we embarked on verse by verse Bible study into the book of Romans: a book that is credited for transforming countless number of lives ever since it was penned 1900 years ago by beloved Apostle Paul. We are so excited to journey through this book which is instrumental in drawing many people from Satan’s kingdom of death and darkness and ushering them into the kingdom of life and light—the kingdom of our lord and saviour Jesus Christ.

And just as the Holy Spirit of God has used this book to transform the lives of many people, so is He ready to transform your life if you carefully read and study it. So if you can, kindly join with us every Sunday morning to learn the word of God together. For contacts and more information about our ministry including our location in Thika town, kindly visit my website www.thegreatestdecision.com.

NOTHING IS TOO HARD FOR JESUS CHRIST

Nothing is too hard for Jesus Christ! Do you believe this statement? While many followers of Jesus Christ would answer yes to this question, they unfortunately live like some things are too hard for Jesus Christ! In times of medical emergency, they are quick to call friends and doctors than they are quick to pray to Jesus Christ Whom they supposedly believe that nothing is too hard for Him. In times of financial crisis, they rush to their family members and friends while all the time they are reluctant and unwilling to pray to Jesus Christ Whom they supposedly believe that nothing is too hard for Him. While we may boldly claim that we believe that nothing is too hard for Jesus Christ, it is life’s crises that reveal undeniably whom we believe is all powerful and hence nothing is too hard for them.

In our verse by verse Bible study in JOHN 11:28-46 on Sunday the 18th of September this year, we had unparalleled opportunity to taste and see the limitless power of Jesus Christ as He effortlessly raised Lazarus from the dead, four days after his death. From this extra-ordinary episode, we saw and therefore were fully persuaded that nothing is too hard for Jesus Christ! It is my hope and prayer that as you carefully and prayerfully study it, you too will be fully persuaded that nothing is too hard for Jesus Christ!

CAN GOD BE TOO LATE TO HELP YOU?

Can God be too late to help you? Is there a time when even God might be too late to help you? Many people think so. They believe that there comes a time when even the Almighty God with all His limitless power finds that He is too late to help an individual. When they notice that the normal and acceptable age bracket or time limit for a certain occurrence to happen in the life of an individual has passed: for example, the child-bearing age is past; an accident has already occurred; thieves have already broken in and stolen one’s goods; worst of all, death has already occurred; they wrongly conclude that it is too late even for the Almighty God to intervene and do anything to help. But nothing can be further from the truth!

In our verse by verse Bible study in JOHN 11:1-27 on Sunday the 11th of September this year, we learnt from the sickness and the subsequent death of Lazarus that God will never ever be too late to help us. Yes, even though the normal and acceptable age bracket or time limit for a certain occurrence to happen in the life of an individual has already passed, God who self-exists outside of space and time will always have limitless options to supply hope and help to His people!

EXPERIENCE UNLIMITED POWER IN JESUS CHRIST YOUR LORD AND SAVIOUR

There is a very famous slogan in our society that is mostly used by parents to encourage children to work hard in life which says, “Sky is the limit”. Even though there is nothing inherently wrong with this slogan, I wish to modify it a little bit and state it this way, “SKY IS NOT THE LIMIT FOR ALL THOSE WHO ARE IN CHRIST JESUS.” This is because; there is no limit of what God can do in, for and through all those who are in Christ Jesus. While it is true that all born again followers of Jesus Christ must face: the highs and the lows; the hot and the cold; the ups and downs as they walk with Jesus Christ in this fallen world filled with fallen people; they nevertheless are bound to experience unlimited power in Jesus Christ their lord and saviour. For, there exists unlimited power and potential for all those who are in Christ Jesus!

It is against this backdrop that I strongly encourage you to attempt great things for God. For, God is ever ready to enable you achieve great things for Him through: 1) The unlimited power of answered prayers; 2) The unlimited power of the Holy Spirit who indwells you and, 3) The unlimited power of Christ Jesus who lives in you. So, just as it was our prayer today (Sunday 11th of December 2016) as we were studying through John 14:12-21, may you likewise ask Jesus Christ to enable you attempt great things for Him beginning today!

JESUS CHRIST IS GOD THE MAN!

The fact that Jesus Christ was and still is fully God and fully man all in one person amazes some people at best and at worst confuses many other people. None of us can claim that he or she fully understands how one person can have two completely different natures as Jesus Christ has. Yet, if we have to remain true to the correct teaching of the Bible, we can only come to this one conclusion that: JESUS CHRIST WAS AND STILL IS 100% GOD AND 100% MAN ALL IN ONE PERSON. Just as there are many verses in the Bible that clearly reveal that Jesus Christ was and still is 100% man with a human body, a human soul and a human spirit; so are there many verses in the Bible that clearly reveal that Jesus Christ was and still is 100% God. This enigma does not call for sacrifice of one’s reason but for the abolition of pride that refuses to accept many undeniable facts which are available all over the Bible for one to scrutinize.

Of these two natures of Jesus Christ, His divine nature and His human nature, the one that is strongly contested is His divine nature—the fact that He is fully God. As we saw on Sunday 4th September this year during our verse by verse Bible study through JOHN 10:22-42; many people were quick to acknowledge and accept that Jesus Christ was fully man. However, they were slow or stubbornly refused to acknowledge and accept the fact that Jesus Christ was fully God just as He was fully man. They refused to accept that, right in their midst was Yahweh God Almighty clothed in frail humanity in the person of Jesus Christ! It was thus a privilege and an honour that, that Bible Study gave us a golden opportunity to interrogate six biblical reasons which proves that Jesus Christ is God come in the human flesh.
