TOPIC : DO YOU REALLY KNOW JESUS

TEXT : PSALM 96 : 1 - 3

1 O sing unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth.

2 Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; shew forth his salvation from day to day.

3 Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people.

This year has almost come to an end.

As we thank God joyously, it's actually the time check whether we majored at the minors and minored at the majors.

How would you access your relationship with God this year.

For once, be the examiner.

How would you score yourself?

Prepare now to re-seat for the greatest exam of your life; do you know Jesus?

I pray that this season will not pass before you catch that great revelation of who Jesus is.

With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.

Your case is not bigger than God.

May you have a God filled week in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Your Victory is already guaranteed

It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible

(Please be a blessing to seven persons by sending to them our devotionals)

TOPIC : DO YOU REALLY KNOW JESUS

TEXT :  MATTHEW 1 : 18-21

18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.

19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily.

20 But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the LORD appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.

21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for he shall save his people from their sins.

Joseph the foster father of Jesus was introduced to his son by the Holy spirit.

He would have backed out of that marriage arrangement but for his divine encounter.

He would have also lost the opportunity of a life time to be forever remembered both here and in eternity as the one who played the fatherly role to our Lord.

As we continue to celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ, may we seek to know Christ the more in Jesus mighty name.

With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.

Your case is not bigger than God.

May you have a God filled week in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Your Victory is already guaranteed

It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible

TEXT :  LUKE 2  : 36 - 38

36 And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser: she was of a great age, and had lived with an husband seven years from her virginity;

37 And she was a widow of about fourscore and four years, which departed not from the temple, but served God with fastings and prayers night and day.

38 And she coming in that instant gave thanks likewise unto the Lord, and spake of him to all them that looked for redemption in Jerusalem.

Prophetess Anna, knew Jesus by revelation.

She waited for eighty four years in fasting and prayers for the coming of the Messiah.

Who preached to Anna, no one.

Who encouraged Anna, no one.

She encountered Jesus and never went back.

Please ask God to give you a revelation of His son Jesus.

Continue with this prayer, pray and say;  Father please reveal Jesus to me.

He surely will.

Today as you celebrate, may you receive a revelation of who Christ really is.

With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.

Your case is not bigger than God.

May you have a God filled week in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

TEXT :  LUKE 2  : 25 - 27 

25 And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and the same man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost was upon him.

26 And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord's Christ.

27 And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law,

Simeon encountered the Lord Jesus by revelation.

The scripture said in verse 26 that it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death until he has seen the Lord Jesus.

Those who encounter Jesus by revelation do not need to be followed up.

They usually sources of blessing to their pastors, because they make pastoring easy.

May you receive your own revelation of Christ in this season, in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

It is a time to separate and keep asking the Father to give you a revelation of the Son.

Continue with this prayer, pray and say;  Father please reveal Jesus to me.

He surely will.

Today as you celebrate, may you receive a revelation of who Christ really is.

With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.

Your case is not bigger than God.

May you have a God filled week in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

TOPIC : DO YOU REALLY KNOW JESUS

TEXT :  ACTS 10 : 1 - 6

1 There was a certain man in Cæsarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band,

2 A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God alway.

3 He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day an angel of God coming in to him, and saying unto him, Cornelius.

4 And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God.

5 And now send men to Joppa, and call for one Simon, whose surname is Peter:

6 He lodgeth with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea side: he shall tell thee what thou oughtest to do.

CORNELIUS ENCOUNTERED JESUS BY REVELATION.

Cornelius was not a Jew, he was a gentile.

He was outside of the covenant of those to be saved at his time but certain practices gave him an encounter.

This season is not a season of overindulgence in activities that does not add anything to over relationship with Jesus.

It is a time to separate and keep asking the Father to give you a revelation of the Son.

Continue with this prayer, pray and say;  Father please reveal Jesus to me.

He surely will.

Today as you celebrate, may you receive a revelation of who Christ really is.

With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.

Your case is not bigger than God.

May you have a God filled weekend in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

TEXT :  MATHEW 2 : 1-6 

1 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,

2 Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.

3 When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

4 And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.

5 And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet,

Who  is this Jesus?

Is Jesus one of the dead prophets?

Was Jesus a man that discovered another religion?

When you discover Jesus by revelation, you will never forsake him

Apostle Paul was armed with a letter to  arrest and  bring the followers of Jesus to Jerusalem for destruction.

In Acts 9 the Bible told us how the resurrected Jesus confronted and arrested Apostle Paul the arrestor.

Apostle Paul said in Acts  13-15

13 At midday, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them which journeyed with me.

14 And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

15 And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.

You can't encounter Jesus and still doubt His divinity.

People still have personal encounters of Jesus Christ.

Today, pray and say;  Jesus please reveal yourself to me.

He surely will.

Today as you celebrate, may you receive a revelation of who Christ really is.

With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.

Your case is not bigger than God.

May you have a God filled weekend in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

TOPIC : DO YOU REALLY KNOW JESUS

TEXT :  MATHEW 2 : 1-14

1 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,

2 Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.

3 When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

4 And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.

5 And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet,

6 And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.

7 Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, enquired of them diligently what time the star appeared.

8 And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the young child; and when ye have found him, bring me word again, that I may come and worship him also.

9 When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was.

10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.

11 And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh.

12 And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.

13 And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.

14 When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt:

When it comes to knowing God and His dealings, teaching is good, studying is equally good but the game changer is revelation.

Who is Christ to you?

As we celebrate Christmas today, do you really know who Jesus is?

In the book of Matthew  16 : 13-15, Jesus was seen asking His disciples who do they know Him to be.

13 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?

14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.

15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?

Peter finally answered by revelation and Jesus said to them, only my father in Heaven could have revealed me to you.

Who preached to the wisemen from far away East.

No one, they caught it by revelation.

Today as you celebrate, may you receive a revelation of who Christ really is.

With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.

Your case is not bigger than God.

May you have a God filled weekend in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Your Victory is already guaranteed
