Why do we go to Church?

...not forsaking the assembling together of ourselves as is the custom with some, but encouraging one another, and so much more as you see the Day drawing near. - Hebrews 10:25

People go to 'church' for a number of reasons:

Some go because it's Sunday and it has become an habit for them.
Some go because they believe that is God's Presence. Some go simply because they are in tough situations and they need a miracle.

Some go to socialize especially in the so-called 'Mega Church.

There is nothing wrong with us going to 'church 'for such reasons above but there are far more important reasons for us to go to 'churchk.

One major reason we go to 'church' is Fellowship. We go to learn at the feet of the master and grow in faith. We go to edify and exhort one another. We come together to share and grow in Christ Jesus. We go to church to gathered as one body and doing all in unity. We go to to church because there is powering corporate anointing, corporate worship, corporate prayer.

You and I are the church, so when we come together, we are church. Where we fellowship is simply a building, it becomes a church because of you and I.

When we gathered, we symbolizes when Jesus will come back to take His own, we would also be taken as One.

Today is Sunday, I implore you to get dressed and go fellowship with other folks. One of the things that will continue in afterlife is Fellowship.

Good Morning and a happy Sunday to You!

Made a Way: The Story Behind The Song

Made a way is a song written and sang by award winning artist Travis Greene in the year 2015. Many people knows the song but few actually know the story behind the song. The song was actually borne out of a personal testimony of Travis Greene. According to the artist, 'Made a Way' was written during an impossible situation. His pregnant wife’s water broke at 21 weeks, when pregnancy normally takes between 37-42 weeks. The doctors said the possibility of the baby’s survival is slim to none, and it was during this period when his wife was on bed rest for two months that he wrote the song. There was nothing else for them to hold on to but faith, and the good news is that as slim as the chance was, it didn’t break because faith held it together and today their baby boy is alive. When Jesus was on His way to heal Jairus’s daughter and news came that things had gone from bad to worse, that the girl was dead. Jesus overheard and said, "Don't be upset. Just trust me

Lessons From the Sons of Sceva

....the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? - Acts 19:15 One funny incident that I read in the Bible is about the seven sons of Sceva that attempted to use the Name of Jesus to cast out demons. The demons replied them that He knows Jesus and Paul, but who are they? They were given the beating of their life. (Acts 19:11-16) Were they wrong in using the Name of Jesus? No. But truth is they don't know nor understand that Name. They only want to use it selfishly just to get the results that Paul was getting. They thought it was a rocket science. Many at times we believers are like that; We live in sin , we disobey God and when we need something, we want to perform miracles, do signs and wonders in the Name of Jesus which we really belittle or don't value. Someone once said during a plane turbulence, he saw unbelievers even shouting the name of Jesus. No wonder some folks suffered embarrassment like the sons of Sceva. When
