YOUR HEARTBROKEN CRY

Do you believe God is willing to come quickly to solve your problem? Here is where many Christians fall short. They know God has all they need and they admit he cares. But when he doesn't answer their cry right away, they think of all kinds of reasons why he must not be willing to come to their aid.
On Mount Carmel, Elijah spoke confidently of his God. He taunted the prophets of Baal by accusing their god of child neglect: "[They] called on the name of Baal from morning even till noon, saying, ‘O Baal, hear us!’ But there was no voice; no one answered. . . .  And so it was, at noon, that Elijah mocked them and said, ‘Cry aloud, for he is a god; either he is meditating, or he is busy, or he is on a journey, or perhaps he is sleeping and must be awakened.’
"So they cried aloud, and cut themselves, as was their custom . . . until the blood gushed out on them. . . . But there was no voice; no one answered, no one paid attention" (1 Kings 18:26–29).
Hear these words again: "There was no voice; no one answered, no one paid attention."
What Elijah described is exactly how we accuse God. We pray, we cry aloud to God, but we go our way, not believing he has heard us. We walk away from the Lord's presence — away from the secret closet of prayer — wondering if he has paid attention to our cries.
The Lord is always ready to hear and answer our cry for help. I love what David said of him: "For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, and abundant in mercy to all those who call upon You. . . . In the day of my trouble I will call upon You, for You will answer me" (Psalm 86:5, 7).
God is waiting for your heartbroken cry, uttered in childlike faith.

WHOSE IMAGE ARE YOU?

Image
 An Image is a visual representation of an object. It is the likeness of something. When you look at yourself in the mirror, you will see an image of yourself. The image is the likeness of the object which is you. The image has nothing more/extra or less than what you have. This exactly means that the Image and the object are the same. Let's try and figure this out in the life of a Christian. I'll use myself as an example, before I got born again, I was living a different life. I was living a life of oppression. I was living in anger and bitterness. My life then wasn't pleasing to God. In this case, my life was an image/ clear indication of the kingdom I was operating in then. But when I got born again, my old man and his deeds were put off and I became a new man. With time, I was renewed in knowledge and I became an image of Him who brought me out of darkness into His marvellous Light (Jesus Christ). This is exactly what happens when one gets born again, the old self fades...

Another warning about the imminent Return of Jesus

  The Spirit took me to a place in the dream and told me to behold what was about to happen. And I could see dark huge clouds moving fast in the dark sky. Then I saw the moon and above it there was something so strange, it was another body like the moon. There   were strange signs in the sky and i saw very strange things I don’t know how to describe but they seemed to me like celestial bodies. Then I was taken in spirit to a different; and I was standing out in an open place and as I was standing there, then suddenly   there was a loud blast and in a flash, I saw the heavens opened in an instant and   I saw people snatched into heaven. The Lord opened my eyes and I saw them consumed into the brilliant bright pure   heavenly glory. Then I saw glorious white cloud cover the entry into heaven. And the remaining earth was overcome with darkness. Then I saw so many people in chaos and they were running to and fro screaming and some were exclaiming that indee...

Vision of a glorious golden crown

I saw a vision this past night, I found myself standing in the field.  The sky was clear despite some little clouds in the east. Somebody who seemed to me like a prophet of God was standing just a few steps away from where I was. and we were both looking up into the sky. Then this prophet told me to look beyond the clouds to see the gift that God have set forth for the faithful. I tried to look but I could not see anything, that's when the H oly Spirit opened my eyes and I could see a very beautiful magnificent golden crown with the Cross on the front face.  It was titling slowly so i could easily observe it from both side. It had a polished golden surface with beautiful golden droplets on the surface. I saw it tilt again as it fades from my sight. end. prepare for the coming of Christ Jesus on absolute holiness and righteousness.
