The Need For The Seed.

Do we have a responsibility to the unsaved? can we look at the unconverted around us, heading unconsciously towards destruction, without being moved? Can we think of the doom that awaits an ungodly world and not weep? If Jesus wept over one city, shouldn't we have compassion for a whole world that lies in wickedness and is rushing to judgement? Shouldn't we use every opportunity to warn unbelievers and earnestly persuade them, as Paul did, to be reconciled to God?
God tells us that He is ''not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance"(2 pet. 3:9). The same grace of God that saved us is extended to them(Eph. 2:8-9). without the gospel they are doomed to eternal damnation by God. (John 3:8)
Is it possible to selfishly enjoy our own security and leave the Father's love and grace un proclaimed, not warning sinners of impending judgement? "He who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death" (James 5:20). God expects us to carry the seed to others, and even holds us responsible ( see ezek. 3:18, 20). May we be stirred to pray, watch and labour for Christ and for souls!

Purity of Heart



Prov. 22:11 One who loves a pure heart and who speaks with grace will have the king for a friend.


When we don't bath for a day or more, the body smells, right? especially the armpits. They give out very bad odour, but after bathing, the body becomes clean,  no more bad odour.

Well that's for the outer part of the body. One may ask, "can the inner part of the body be dirty?" well.. yes, it can be, like accumulation of unhealthy foods, toxins from pollution, smoking, drinking too much coffee, too much sodas or wine or sweet tea. You cleanse or detoxify the inner body by drinking clean water, eating fibers, avoid caffeine and alcohol.etc.

The heart is the control house of the body. when the heart fails the body cease functioning. Can the heart get dirty? yes! it can.

A man can kill with his heart, commit adultery, fornication, and so many other evil right there in the heart. This things makes the heart impure.

It takes the grace of God for one to attain perfect purity of heart. This generation is so full of evil, immorality is the order of the day. How can people, especially young people who are more prone to this "epidemic" attain purity of heart. Well, it's possible, the question then is how?
Well, the perfect cleansing agent of the heart is JESUS.

The bible says that the heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? The truth is that even believers find it hard to control the heart from immoral thoughts, especially lust. Only Jesus can purify the heart.

These steps would act as a guide to purify the heart

1. Often look into the Word of God. ‘Now ye are clean through the word   John 15:3.  ‘Thy word is very pure’  Psalm 119:140.

2.Go to the bath.

i The bath of tears: just as peter cried after his denial of Christ, he was so sorry for what he did. also Mary who washed the feet of Jesus with her tears and wiped them with her hair

ii The bath of Christ’s blood: The blood of Jesus washes away sins.

3. Get faith (Acts 15: 9) Having purified their hearts by faith

4. Breathe after the Spirit

 i. To fire (Acts 2: 3). Fire is of a purifying nature. It refines and cleans metals. It separates the dross from the gold. The Spirit of God in the heart refines and sanctifies it. It burns up the dross of sin.

 ii. The Spirit is compared to wind. There came a sound from heaven as of a mighty rushing wind, and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost’ (Acts 2: 24)

iii. The Spirit is compared to water. ‘He that believeth on me, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water; but this spake he of the Spirit’ (John 7:38, 39)

5. Take heed of familiar converse and intercourse with the wicked.

 6. If you would be pure, walk with them that are pure.‘ (Proverbs 13: 20)He that walketh with the wise shall be wise’

7. Wait at the posts of wisdom’s doors

8. Pray for heart purity

Revelations!

This is a collection of testimonies from those who claim to have experienced heaven and hell, as well as those who have had direct, face-to-face encounters with God the Father in heaven, the Lord Jesus Christ, or His holy angels.  It includes a number of documented accounts of individuals being raised from the dead.  It also includes some visions and important Scriptural studies on the topic of heaven and hell.

It is my prayer that these testimonies will lead you to pray earnestly and seek the Lord's face, regarding the destiny of your own soul, and the souls of the people in your life, so that you and they will not miss the glories of heaven and wind up in hell for eternity.
