PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME  THURSDAY, 21ST MAY 2026 SHINE!  (God Has Made You A Burning And A Shining Light) TO THE BIBLE - Matthew 5:14,16 NKJV  “You are the light of the world… Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” LET’S TALK  Imagine walking into a dark room and suddenly, a single candle is lit. Imagine walking into a dark room, and suddenly, a single candle is lit. That small flame reveals what was hidden, guides your steps, and brings clarity. This simple picture reveals a profound truth about your identity in Christ. You are that light! Not just any light, but the light of the world. The Lord Jesus declared, “You’re the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden” (Matthew 5:14 NKJV). This is not a suggestion; it’s a divine command. God’s glory in you is meant to radiate through your words, your love, and your conduct. Your life as a Christian is designed to expos...

PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. THURSDAY MAY 21 2026 🟥 *USE THE WORD TO JUDGE THE RIGHT COUNSEL* From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day (Matthew 16:21). Matthew 16 reveals an important moment between the Lord Jesus and His disciples. After they had been preaching and declaring Him the Christ, the Master began to focus inward, revealing what was to come. He instructed His disciples to keep His identity secret for the time being. Soon after, He explained that He must go to Jerusalem, suffer many things, be killed, and then raised back to life. Upon hearing all that, Peter did something unbelievable. The Bible says he took the Lord aside “…and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee” (Matthew 16:22). Think about that; Peter rebuking the Master. The Lord k...

_Sit down and make your life worth-while, spice it up with God's word. If you don't starve your past, it'll keep drawing you back! There's no joy in living your whole life on the ground because of the mistake of the past; there's no passion to be found playing small; in settling for a life that is less than the one you 're capable of living._ _Stop short-changing your life. God wants to set you up for something greater but He wants your thinking to be in sync with His thoughts towards you. The best way to guard your mind is to fill it with God's precious thoughts towards you. Refuse to allow others discourage you, for you 're so much better than this._ _Don't give up or reduce your relationship with God to accommodate and please people who don't care about you as much as God does. If a man makes you, a man can "unmake" you if you offend him or he's not pleased with you anymore, but if God makes you, you are irreversibly ...

🔴1 Peter 2:9 says, “But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.” That’s our calling right there: it’s to a life of praise. We’re sanctified to praise the Lord. 🔴Our praise is a weapon against the adversary.  🔴Recall what happened with Jehoshaphat: three enemy nations allied against Judah.  📖2 Chronicles 20:21 AMPC When he had consulted with the people, he appointed singers to sing to the Lord and praise Him in their holy [priestly] garments as they went out before the army, saying, Give thanks to the Lord, for His mercy and loving-kindness endure forever! ☀️But Jehoshaphat organised with the people and put the singers in front of the army.  ☀️The Bible says, “And when they began to sing and to praise, the Lord set ambushments against the men of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir who had come against Judah, and they were...

╔════════════════╗   RHAPSODY OF REALITIES     FOR EARLY READERS ╚════════════════╝ WEDNESDAY, 20TH MAY 2026 WRITE GOD’S WORD IN YOUR HEART Psalm 45:1  My heart is overflowing with a good theme... My tongue is the pen of a ready writer. When you’re in school, and your teacher is teaching, you’re encouraged to take notes so you can remember what you learned. In the same way, God wants His Word written—not just in a notebook—but in your heart. How does that happen? It happens when you meditate on God’s Word and say it out loud. Each time you say God’s Word, it is being written inside you. That’s why it’s good to keep speaking God’s Word about your life. As you meditate on it, whisper it, and say it boldly, God’s Word stays in your heart and helps you live victoriously. So make it a daily habit to enjoy God’s Word. When you do, it will guide you and help you every day! SCRIPTURE READING Psalm 45:1 My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the thing...

PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME  WEDNESDAY, 20TH MAY 2026 TAKE YOUR PLACE IN THE CHURCH  (You’re God’s Agent For Global Impact) TO THE BIBLE - Isaiah 9:7 NKJV  “Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end….” LET’S TALK  The human body is a marvel of divine engineering. Every organ, no matter how hidden, contributes to the health, strength, and effectiveness of the whole. The eye doesn’t strive to be the heart, and the hand doesn’t compete with the feet; each functions purposefully, supplying life and direction to the body. Remove one part, and the entire system is affected. This beautifully illustrates God’s design for His Church.   The Church of Jesus Christ isn’t a mere organization or an association of worshippers; it’s God’s agency for executing His will and agenda across the nations. The Bible calls the Church “the pillar and ground of the truth” (1 Timothy 3:15). Everything God wants to accomplish in a nation, He initiates through ...
