In times of crisis, God wants us to trust Him. Before His crucifixion, Jesus prepared his disciples for life after His departure. They were about to experience a severe shock to their psyche. He told them, "Don't let your heart be troubled..." (John 14:1). Amid the current pandemic, He wants us to trust Him, not panic.We should take all the necessary precautions. Self-isolation doesn't mean a lack of faith. It means you are being considerate.Have a blessed week. ?Don't forget to listen, subscribe, like and share. ?????______________________www.higherlifechristiancentre.org.ukwww.embracinglifeinchrist.com_______________________pastor@higherlifechristiancentre.org.uk

Embracing Life In Christ

#27 Trust God. Be considerate. Covid19

Usually, people get shutdown with God said this; the Holy Spirit said that. They don't feel they have the space to scrutinise what is said to them. Some believers have even gone as far as getting married based on one party's revelation from the Lord. This is risky.Asking questions isn't wrong. The early apostles gave us checks and balances to keep us safe. ?

#26 Don’t Shut Down Genuine Questions With, God Said.

Would you be willing to go with the truth? Sometimes we let the opinions of others get in the way of God's word. Once He opens your eyes, the Father wants you to walk in the light revealed.It might be uncomfortable. You might have to walk alone. But go with the Word. God with the Father.------------Website - www.higherlifechristiancentre.org.ukwww.embracinglifeinchrist.com-------------Email: pastor@higherlifechristiancentre.org.ukInstagram: pastor_olua

#25 Making a change when truth is unveiled.

Jesus told us to beware of false prophets (Matthew 7:15). It is an issue we seldom like to highlight. But in an atmosphere where many self-proclaimed prophets flourish, we need to heed the words of our Saviour.We can't afford to be gullible. We must test the source. We must examine those who dish out prophetic words and claim to work miracles (1 John 4:1).----------------------www.higherlifechristiancentre.org.ukwww.embracinglifeinchrist.com--------------------pastor@higherlifechristiancentre.org.uk--------------------Don't forget to Follow, Share, Like & Subscribe.

#24 Miracles, Signs & Wonders - Be Cautious!

The challenges we face can, indeed drive us towards the Father. We might not start out searching for Him. But somehow He orchestrates events to bring us to the knowledge of the truth. We must be aware of the fact that God is not the source of every supernatural experience - Acts 16:16-21.----www.higherlifechristiancentre.org.ukwww.embracinglifeinchrist.org.uk

#23 Are You Just Here For The Bread - Part 3. Is God the Source?

It is easy to be deceived by miracles, signs and wonders. In times of desperation, people are usually open to all kinds of spiritual experiences. We must be cautious. Why? Because God is not the source of all spiritual experiences.Preached on 26.01.2020www.higherlifechristiancentre.org.ukwww.embracinglifeinchrist.com_______________________________Email: pastor@higherlifechristiancentre.org.uk

#22 Are You Just Here For The Bread? Part 2 - Miracles, Signs & Wonders.

What is your focus? Christ? Or the things you can get from Him? Our Heavenly Father wants us to know Him. He wants us to move beyond running after miracles and the spectacular. There is no substitute for knowing Him. Don't let the bells and whistles distract you.Preached on 19.01.2019 www.higherlifechristiancentre.org.uk

#21 Are You Just Here For The Bread? Part 1

There are many things we allow into our lives that stop us from growing in Christ. We need to weed them out, so that we can be the people God wants us to be.Live Sermon @ HLCC 12.05.2020www.higherlifechristiancentre.org.ukpastor@higherlifechristiancentre.org.uk

#20 What is Crowding Out God’s Word in Your Heart?

Sermon preached on 05.01.2020.Old and New Testament saints never saw themselves alone in their struggles. Even when things suddenly sprung up, their default position was God. Christians are not excluded from the trials of life. But our Heavenly Father expects us to rejoice in Him regardless.

#19 Sorrowful, Yet Rejoicing!

When it comes to getting married, does our loyalty to Christ matter? Life can be complicated. It is better not to complicate it further.

#18 Loyalty to Christ & Marriage

It is okay to be uncertain sometimes. We should plan. But not everything goes according to plan. As believers, we don't control tomorrow. Our Faith is in the One who does.Enjoy the rest of your weekend. Have a wonderful week.Download, Listen & Share ?

#17 We Don’t Control Tomorrow, But Our Faith Is In The One Who Does.

This is the second part of ‘Bless and Do Not Curse.’ Please listen to episode 15 if you haven’t.Paul’s authority was challenged in Corinth. The believers cosied up to false teachers who turned them against him. He was disrespected. But he never cursed them.Even when he was bragging about his ministry in comparison to the false apostles (2 Corinthians 11), winning them back for the Lord was at the forefront of his thinking.In our anger lets not seek to destroy those for whom Christ died.Have a blessed week. ?

#16 Bless & Do Not Curse Part 2

If the Master says, we should love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us (Matthew 5:44). Why do some think it is okay to curse others when they fall out? We've been told to bless and not curse. It doesn't mean people won't drive us up the wall. But we need to keep our emotions and tongues in check. Even when they curse us, we must refrain from doing the same.Enjoy the rest of your weekend. Have a great week ?​

#15 Bless & Do Not Curse Part 1

When it comes to presenting the gospel, we need to consider the best way to get the message across to the people we want to reach. There is nothing wrong with reaching them where they are. Paul did this at Mars Hill (Acts 17:22-31), while Peter went straight to the law and the prophets when he preached in Jerusalem at Pentecost (Acts 2). Methods differ, but the message remains the same and should not be compromised. We must repent of sin and turn to God to receive His gift of life (Acts 2:38)​.Have a fantastic weekend and a great week ahead. ?

#14 Repent from Sin, Turn to God, The Message Hasn’t Changed.

A short discussion with Brother Less, on Ephesians 2:12, "In those days you were living apart from Christ. You were excluded from citizenship among the people of Israel, and you did not know the covenant promises God had made to them. You lived in this world without God and without hope."In Christ, we are no longer without God. We are no longer without hope. We are no longer strangers to the Father's covenant promises. He has been gracious, even when we don't deserve it.Have a blessed weekend. ?
