Sometimes, God is the focus of our impatience and dissatisfaction we become very frustrated with Him. Sometimes, some of us feel frustrated and disappointed when our prayers are not answered, but hear me; God is too faithful to His promise, He will never fail. Some even accuse God on His Word because He says...

When He sets you free

Topic: When He sets you free Memory Ver se:  If the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed. John 8:36 Main Texts:       Mark 5:1-20 Daily Quote:   If the Son sets you free, then you must set others free - Michael B. Gyekye Bible in One Year :  Judges 11:1-12:15 John 1:1-28 Psalm 101:1-8 Proverbs 14:13-14 To be free is not only free from troubles. Remember Jesus slept in a storm when people in the boat were all crying and wailing so to be free is not freedom from troubles but peace even in the midst of troubles. Freedom is when your limitations are taken off and you can be limitless in your endeavors. Many are resting and may be rich, they can buy and eat all they want but they are not free. To be free is dwell under the secret place of God. Where the shadow of the Almighty is upon you. Where He alone becomes your fortress and defender in the time of troubles. That is what mak...

The Bitter Pill.

Topic: The Bitter Pill. Memory Ver se:     But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth. James 3:14 (KJV) Main Texts:  Ephesians 4:30-32 Daily Quote:   Bitterness makes our lives bitter, but makes the other's life sweeter – Michael B Gyekye Bible in One Year:  Isaiah 30:12-33:9 Galatians 5:1-12 Psalm 63:1-11 Proverbs 23:22 Bitterness is known in the Bible as spiritual poison and a means by which many are defiled and fall short to the grace of God as in Hebrews 12:15. Bitterness is the cause of many cancers in this life. It affects both the soul and the spirit of man and it damages the physical body. It is the single bullet that can shoot hundreds and can destroy an entire generation. Haman was bitter, that was why he wanted to wipe out the entire Jews. My dear, bitterness is the source of countless spiritual and physical problems in mil...

Memory Ver se:   When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.   Matthew 2:10 Main Texts:  Matthew 2:1-3 Daily  Quote :   Remember  that the descendants of Abraham are as the Stars of Heaven, so uncountable – Michael Gyekye Bible in a Year: Zechariah 6:1-7:14 Revelation 15:1-8 Psalm 143:1-12 Proverbs 30:24-28 There are many stars, but only the one that attracts attention is seen. The star of Jesus was seen by wise men. They saw that star differently among many stars. That same star was directing them into an area of fulfillment but as soon as they went off the track of the star, they got misdirected, but as soon as the star came back their heart was filled with joy. The heart of the one walking in destiny is filled with joy. If you lost track of destiny you allow darkness to diminish your i...

A sign gives direction. In fact when you get lost and you see a sign, which may be enough for you to reach your destination.

In a case of marriage, children are signs of fruitful marriage. In business a profits may tell you that that bu...

Mystery of His Birth.

Memory Ver se:     And He said to them, “To you it has been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; Mark 4:11 Main Texts:  Luke 1:30-35 Daily  Quote :   Troubles open the door when peace arrives  – Michael B. Gyekye        Bible in One year:  Zechariah 1:1-21 Revelation 12:1-17 Psalm 140:1-13 Proverbs 30:17 Beloved, the birth of our dear Lord Jesus Christ is a mystery. That is to say, there are a lot to know apart a virgin giving birth to a baby boy, Jesus. Man has to understand for a fact that Jesus is not a man born of the flesh and blood. Jesus is God who was conceived by the Holy Ghost in the womb of Mary and was born God in the form of a man. In Mark 4:11, Jesus said “to you it has been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God”. Anything concerning this kingdom is a mystery. The raw state of...

These qualities made her unsuitable in the eyes of her people to be used mightily of God, but the day angel Gabriel visited her; she was called “highly favored one”. However, God looked upon the quality of her tr...

Dear Nicodemus.

Topic: Dear Nicodemus. Memory Ver se:   No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

He was a Pharisee and a member of the Jewish council. Just as many government officials who are religiously inclined seek after men of God secretly, Nicodemus also because of the fear of his life and position, could not go to Jesus in the day time but night time. This is because ...
