The world is for God. .What else do you think that existed by itself?
The book of John chpter1 verses 1-5 established what the book of Genesis chapter 1 verses1-3 says.
Some people are blessed by God in terms of material provisions. But the have taken it as what belongs to them. They did not know that God freely give it to them and He can take it back anytime.
You may say that ‘but I went to the school to earn my prestigious certificate, thus it is my entitlement to posses those material things.’
You must also remember that some people had come to this solitary world and made fortunes, but as at now they are no where to be found. They are dead. They are awaiting there judgement from God. Meanwhile they were not buried with their wealth.
Or have you seen the place where a car is being buried with the owner?
Therefore, you should glorify God with your substances.
How will I glorify God with my substances?
The steps are;
· You must realize that you are sent to this world by God and one day you will give account to him of what you have use your life for when on earth.2corinthians 5vs10.
· You must then please God with your material possession. But without holiness no one can please the Lord. Therefore, you must accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and personal savior. Because through him alone is salvation and pass to the Kingdom of God . John 14 vs 6 Jesus said ‘I am the way the truth and life. No one can come to the father except by Me.’ John 3 vs 16 God reaffirms that ‘for God so love the world that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever beliveth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. ’
· Tell Him right from the whole of your heath that you are sorry for all the wrong that you have done. Because Romans 3vs23 says ‘for all have sinned and fall short the glory of God.’ Of which I am one. Mention those things that you have done wrong for god cannot be mocked.
· Tell Him that you believe that He came to this world sent by God. John 3 vs 16. He died for you on the cross of Calvary buried and resurrected the 3rd day and He is coming to take the saints in His second coming. Of which I will be among.
· Tell him that He should give you the grace to live a holy and accepted life unto Him. And to right your name in the book of LIFE.
· Thank him for He had answered your prayers.
Congratulations friend(s) for you are now in the household of God .
You must make sure that you don’t that your resources as an idol. That is to say, to trust in your wealth instead of God
You give your tithe to the church of God you are attending and if not attending any, you should start attending a Bible believing Church close to your area NOW.
Your daily obligation is to pray to God through Jesus Christ (asking him what you want for the day only for tomorrow is another day to ask for when it comes) .(Matthew 6 .
Read your bible everyday (to know what God want you to do for that day) before you go out for the day’s work.
It is expedient that you have personal time to pray and read your bible so as to grow in the spirit. This is called Quite Time. Done early in the morning like 4am or 5am or 6am or any convenient time before the day break.(Mark 1:35).
You must go to the church always so as to grow up with other believers. As iron sharpens irons.
If you are a family man [you have a wife and child(s)], you must have a family prayer (altar). Wake them up in the morning and sing praises to God read the Bible together and pray together. Before everyone goes for his/her work(s).
Give cheerfully to the poor and in the household of God for God loves a cheerful giver.
Then you must be expectant of Jesus Christ Second coming which will be
Anytime from now.
YOURS IN CHRIST,

biblical perspective on time
Time is about life.
Everything takes place in a matter of time. Events unfold in a matter of time.
Kings are enthroned and dethrone in a matter of time.
The prophets of old in the word of God (the bible) all prophesy base on time.
Then you may want to ask that what is TIME?
Time is the period of expectations of an event to unfold its requested manifestations.
The requested manifestations may be as prophesy or not. But the period of the gap is called TIME.
The bible in the book of Ecclesiastics Chapter 3 verses 10 reads about time for everything.
A time to be born and a time to die.
A time to pass and a time to fail.
A time to build up and a time to destroy what is built.
A time to plant and a time to reap what had been planted.
A time for rain and a time for drought.
To everything there is a time and purposes.
The whole events in the bible all prophesy about the time where the whole world will be reconciled with God. After the fall of man in the Garden of Eden. These takes the period of about 2000 years for the messiah to come.
Thus the prophet Isaiah in the bible Isaiah Chapter 9 Verse 6 said : Unto us a child is born unto us a son is given ,the government shall be on His shoulder and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor Mighty God Everlasting Father and the Prince of Peace.
This is the time of the manifestation of the reconciliation of the world back to God. By the sending of His son Jesus Christ to die for us on the Cross of Calvary.
On the course of His crucification, He said ``t is finished’’.
Therefore, it is pertinent for all to consider our ways because by His resurrection He had been made the judge of the whole world at His second coming to the world.
HOW to consider your ways is to realize that we will all live this planet Earth one day.
If today were to be the day, what will you tell God in judgement as to what you have done with your time on earth?
However, I will tell you three things that you must know to be able to give an account of yourself to God.
This is the issue of sin. Romans 3:23 Says , For all have sin and fall short of the glory of God.
Question…How many have sinned? Answer…All
Does that include you? Yes “all have sinned”
This is the issue of death. Romans 6:23 says, For the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
THE GIFT OF LIFE
Every body after the days work will be expecting a reward. Be it salary, wage or a stipend. Thus the bible says the reward or sin at the end of the day is DEATH.
The third thing to know in other to be save is the issue of JUDEGEMT.
The bible says in the book of Hebrew 9:27 For it is appointed unto man to die once but after this judgement.
The judgement in this contest is condemnation.
At this juncture you have to take THE BIG DECISION this is found in the book of Revelation3:20
QUE: who is talking here? RE: Jesus Christ.
QUE: Where is HE standing at? RE: The door
QUE: What kind of door is He knocking now? RE: The door of my heart/life
QUE: If someone is knocking the door of your house what do you think he is expecting you in side to do?
RE: TO open the door.
QUE: Are you ready to open the door of your heart to Jesus Christ to come in? RE: YES
REMARKS: Thank you Jesus, praise God. The bible says there is much joy in heaven over a sinner that repent. Also if anyone be in Christ he is a new creature, behold, old things had pass away and all things has become new (2Cor 5:17)
It is TIME TO PRAY. (Close your eye)
(1) He should pray loud thanking God for saving him He is sorry for his sins and will not go into it again. God should give him the grace to live a holy life. He should write his name in the book of life and makes you rapturable when he comes back. Thank Him for He has answered your prayers. In Jesus name you have prayed. (Amen).
(2) Tell him to repeat this prayer after you; Lord Jesus, I thank you for coming into my life so that I might have eternal life. I know that I am a sinner, please forgive me, I promise not to go back into them again. Please give me the grace to live a holy life. I believe that you came to this world sent by God, You died for my sins on the cross of Calvary and you resurrected the third day and you are coming back to take the saints and me too. Please write my name in the book of life. Thank you for you have accepted me. In Jesus Christ name I pray Amen.
**** THE THREE THINGS TO DO DAILY SO AS TO GROW AND TO KEEP HIS CONFESSION
· PRAY EVERYDAY. (1THESS 5:17)
· READ THE BIBLE DAILY (JOSUAL 1:8, 2TIM2:15)
· ATTENT A BIBLE BELIEVING CHURCH.(HEB 10:37-39)
This is a balance diet for all Christians to eat daily so as to grow. When you pray you are talking to God. When you read the bible God is talking to you. Thus you live it out in the church where believers of different faith levels meet for iron to sharpen iron.
****QUITE TIME: Mark 1:35. A time you will wake up anytime between12am-6am to pray, study the bible, pray on your meditations and other things.(you can give him a time). Get a specific time for this everyday. You can start using 15min or more. Record your quite time readings. This will aid consistency and commitment. Follow this format: Date/ Bible Text/ Message.
**** THE THREE THINGS NOT TO DO/AVOID DAILY
BAD FRIENDS: They will make you sin against God. Make you take holiness for levity.
BAD MUSICS/PICTURES: They will pollute your mind against God’s word and distance you from thinking about God, Heaven and judgement (Amos 6:1and5).
BAD DRESSING: They makes you to be antichrist and a seducer which is an instrument of the devil (Gal 5:19-20, Deut 22:5, Zephi 1:8).
****BAPTISM: You can arrange water baptism for him in your church or you yourself do it in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit (matt28:19-20). You may decide to give him a new name to mark the baptism and acceptance into God’s kingdom
****STUDING ASSINGMENT: Read the books; Deuteronomy, Leviticus, Ezekiel, JOHN, 1&2 Peters, Romans, Hebrew, Jude and Revelation. Emphasize on the book of John because it tells you all to know about Christ Jesus and Christianity.
**** NECESSITIES:
(a) Be steadfast not to fall as Hebrew 10:37 says.
(b) Send your address; Name, Home Contact, telephone number(s) and e-mail addresses. To: opeheavenprogress@yahoo.co.uk.
(c) Congratulations for your name is now written in the book of life
(d) Contact me often during the week for encouragement to boost your faith.
Request for the Ministry’s manual and form of membership so that he too can become a fisher of men and not eaters of fish.
Yours in Christ,
