╔════════════════╗  RHAPSODY OF REALITIES     FOR EARLY READERS ╚════════════════╝ SATURDAY, 16TH MAY 2026 GOD HELPS YOU FROM THE INSIDE Philippians 2:13  For it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure. The Holy Spirit is God’s power at work inside you. He helps you love God, do good things, and live a happy, and victorious life.  When Jesus was on earth, He depended  on the Holy Spirit. In the same way, the Holy Spirit helps you when you sing in church, help  others, pray, or do anything for God.  The Bible tells us, “...Not by might, nor by  power, but by my Spirit...” (Zechariah 4:6).  This means we don’t do God’s work on our  own. God’s Spirit helps us. The Holy Spirit lives in you to guide you,  make you strong, and help you win every day.  So remember to say often, “Thank you, Holy  Spirit, for helping me!”  SCRIPTURE READING John 14:16 And I will pray the Fathe...

PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME  SATURDAY, MAY 16TH 2026 COMPELLED BY THE   LOVE OF CHRIST  (Let The Love Of Christ Motivate You To Preach The Gospel) LET’S TALK A fire doesn’t need encouragement to burn; once ignited, it spreads naturally, consuming everything within reach. The Christian life is not sustained by obligation or religious routine, but by an inner flame—the love of Christ burning in the heart. When that love is truly kindled within you, it produces movement, urgency, and purpose.  You don’t merely exist; you live with divine intention.The ensuing 15th verse of 2 Corinthians 5 in the NIV is   equally very inspiring. It says, “And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.” This scripture unveils the call to a purposeful life—one compelled by Christ’s love and invested in soul-winning. When the love of Christ takes hold of your heart, it dismantles fear a...

PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. SATURDAY MAY 16 2026 🟥 *LITTLE CHILDREN, YOUNG MEN AND FATHERS* I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake. I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one... (1 John 2:12-13). Notice that in the scripture we just read, the Apostle John only associated sin with “little children,” spiritual toddlers. Yet, many speak as though sin is inevitable for everyone, saying, “Everybody sins”; no! The Bible says, “Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin…” (1 John 3:9). Moreover, the Bible describes sin and defines sin from God’s perspective, not man’s perspective. If you look at sin through the eyes of men, you’ll never rise to your best potential in Christ. The earth around us is thick with sin and condemnation. Man became a sinner in nature after his actions of treasonable disobedience. Rom...

_There comes a time in your life when you have to choose to turn the page, write another book or simply close it. Stop letting insecurity ruin you. Nothing holds you back more than your own thinking pattern. You'll always travel in the direction of your thoughts._ _Stop worrying, for it doesn't take away tomorrow's trouble, it only takes away today's peace. No amount of guilt can change the past, and no amount of worrying can change the future. Keep calm and keep doing the Word. What you fear you empower, what you empower you attract!_  _Sometimes, it's not the challenge that's the load that breaks you down, it's the way you're carrying it. The only time one fails is when one falls and stays down._

FRIDAY 15TH MAY 2026 PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME  💫IT’S THE SAME ANOINTING Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God; Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts (2 Corinthians 1:21-22). There are differences among us, but they don’t cancel the oneness of the Spirit. The differences are in faith, calling, gifts, grace, and office. Our callings are different. Our gifts differ. God gives different graces, and there’re different offices, whether evangelist, prophet, or otherwise. Yet, it’s the same anointing of the Holy Spirit at work. When you received the Holy Spirit, you were anointed with the anointing of the Christ. Therefore, you’ll never need a greater anointing than the one you received when you received the Holy Spirit. 2 Corinthians 1:21 says, “Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God.”  Some think you can be anointed with the Holy Spirit and then later be anoi...

The difference between your today and tomorrow is what you do with your time today. Life today is the seed of another. No one day is the same as another. The value placed on time is the value we've placed on our lives. Life is made up of millions of moments._ _Everyday is important and valuable. Realise that each passing moment is the most important moment. What you do with each gives birth to the other. It's not what others do to us or even our mistakes that hurt us the most; it's our response to it._ _Chasing after the poisonous snake that bites us will only drive the poison through the entire system. It's far better to take measures immediately to get the poison out, so it has no power over the next moment. Our response to circumstances affects the quality of the next moment._ 🔴𝐆𝐎𝐃 𝐁𝐋𝐄𝐒𝐒 𝐘𝐎𝐔🙏
