SPIRITUAL WEAPONS OF WARFARE 10.
Hello everyone, this is the tenth day of these broadcasts. We are about to start discussing the weapons of warfare after doing a lot of foundational teachings on relevant subjects.

THE BELT OF TRUTH
Eph.  6:14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth,...

Nothing has done more damage to the body of Christ more than false doctrines. These errors have led many a good and godly persons into spiritual darkness and moral decay.

Paul saw the LEATHER GIRDLE AROUND THE WAIST AS BEING OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE to facilitate ease of movement. The toga was made of leather strips that were held together by a thong tied around the waist like a belt. This way, the soldier could move freely and yet the belt holding the pleats ensure that the overlapping strips leave no gap.
The Christian is to hold his armour together with TRUTH.
Without the belt, a soldier is no different from a civilian. It is the belt that makes for smartness. I have said it before, there are Christian soldiers and Christian civilians. May God gives you understanding.

Also, in this time of massive heretical teachings and different winds if doctrines, you need a greater quantity of truth to remain on track. Else, you will be tossed to and fro by every wind of doctrines and sleight of men and cunning craftiness whereby they lie in wait to deceive. Eph. 4: 14.

WHAT IS THE TRUTH?

The truth is the PERSON OF JESUS. But contextually, the truth is:

 THE LIGHT OF GOD THAT YOU HAVE RECEIVED. If your light is small, then, you are in a limbo in these days and time because the gross darkness in the world will overshadow you.

Truth also speaks of DISCERNMENT; the ability to judge between the right and the wrong. I am not referring to the gift of discernment of spirits mentioned in 1 Cor. 12:10. But, I am talking about a faculty that has been cultivated over time as a by-product of SPIRITUAL MATURITY.
Hebrews 5:14 says 'But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil'.
 ERRORS and HERESIES most of the time contains some elements of truth mixed with falsehood. Their premises may be biblical but, they are still wrong. It takes a discerning person with sound Biblical knowledge to sieve the wheat from the chaffs.

The weight of the other weapons of warfare that you can bear DEPENDS ON THE THICKNESS OF THE BELT OF TRUTH THAT YOU HAVE. Selah. In other word, the size of the other weapons of warfare that will be handed over to you ARE IN A DIRECT PROPORTION TO THE THICKNESS OF THE TRUTH OF GOD'S WORD THAT YOU HAVE. May God gives you understanding.

Tomorrow's topic is THE BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.

Prayer of Enquiry

By
PRAYER OF ENQUIRY Prayer is a well established and accepted doctrine in all denominations of the body of Christ. Although, there are differences in our modes of prayer, we all believe in the efficacy of lifting up our voice to God to hear our requests and answer them. As much as we do a lot of this, we don't take the full advantage of it as children of God. We would rather worry and think things through rather than calling on God for help. This can be due to lack of faith in the power of God or being slothful in prayers. Apart from the aforementioned factors that prevent us from enjoying the efficacy of prayers, one key factor that prayer hinges on is praying correctly. To pray correctly simply means to pray according to the will of God. It is easy to know the will of God about sickness and poverty because they are expressly written in bible, but even at this, we still do not get answers when we pray. What you might be missing out may be a simple enquiry. The prayer ...

Holy Spirit 15- The Seven Spirits of God- Part 2

By
We have established yesterday that the 7 Spirits of God describe the 7 fold distinct manifestation of the Holy Spirit and it also describes the perfection of the Spirit of God. The answer to yesterday's quiz is: when God stepped into the matter in Eden, the 7 persons brought by the number 7 are: Adam, Eve, Physical Serpent, spiritual Serpent (the Devil), the Seed of the Woman (Jesus the Christ), the seed of the spiritual serpent (Antichrist) and God Himself . Re- read Day 14 to know how this fit in. Today's Broadcast 2. THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM Is. 11:2, Eph. 1:17 This is the Spirit that reveals to you the PLANS AND PURPOSES OF GOD CONCERNING YOUR LIFE, A MATTER, PLACE, etc. If you will ever know why you are on earth, you need the operation of the Spirit of Wisdom. He reveals EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING about the future. There are 3 prominent Greek words used for Wisdom relevant to our subject; SOPHIA, SUNESIS and PHRONESIS. A. SOPHIA describes the entire wisdom of God. T...

Holy Spirit 4- The Symbol of Dove

By
Mt. 3:16, Mk. 1:10. This typifies the harmless and gentle nature of God the Holy Spirit. He neither FORCE NOR FUSS ANYONE. It is only the Devil that force people and even afflict them without their consent. The Holy Spirit IS NOT a dove; He created the dove. Luke 3:22 says 'the Holy Spirit descended in a bodily form like a dove upon Him'. Many have wrongly interpreted this verse and that's why many church logos have the dove as an integral part of it. You need to know that the church can NEVER COME INTO HER FULL POTENTIAL AND RELEVANCE ON THE EARTH UNTIL SHE KNOWS (knowledge with participation-Greek EPIGNOSIS) the Holy Spirit. The person that designed the handbill for EPIGNOSIS Nite had already put a Dove there to represent 'the Holy Spirit'. I told him to remove it. The symbols in most cases are already becoming an idol in many people's hearts and rather than for many to think of the Holy Spirit as a person, they think of Him as a dove/fire/wind,etc. T...
