Every true Believer in Christ is called not only to be Saved but also to serve. Christianity is more than receiving blessings—it is about becoming a blessing to others and advancing the Kingdom of God. Every child of God has a Divine assignment, a Spiritual duty that must be carried out with Diligence and Faithfulness.


The Apostle Paul wrote in Romans 12:1, “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living Sacrifice, Holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.” This means our lives should be fully yielded to God, set apart for His Will and Glory. Our thoughts, words, and actions must reflect the nature of Christ in us.


Our Spiritual duty also includes Winning Souls and Discipling others. Jesus clearly stated in Matthew 28:19–20, “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.” This is not just the duty of Pastors or Evangelists—it is the sacred responsibility of every Believer. The early Church understood this and spread the Gospel everywhere they went, not because they were forced to, but because they were consumed with Love for God and Compassion for Souls.


Another vital aspect of our Spiritual duty is living a life of Prayer and Holiness. We are commanded to pray without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17) and to walk in Righteousness before the world (Matthew 5:16). Through Prayer, we maintain our Spiritual strength; through Holiness, we maintain our witness before men.


When Believers neglect their Spiritual responsibilities—when they stop praying, witnessing, or living uprightly—the Church becomes weak and ineffective. But when each Believer takes up his or her Spiritual duty with passion, the Church becomes a mighty force for God’s Glory.


Let every Believer remember: Salvation is a gift, but service is our response to that gift. We are Saved to serve, called to shine, and chosen to make a difference.


Prayer Points:


1.Lord, help me to live daily as a Faithful steward of Your Grace and fulfill my Spiritual duty with passion and Obedience.


2.Father, empower me by Your Spirit to live a life of Holiness, Prayer, and Soul-winning that will bring Glory to Your name.Amen

TRUSTING GOD'S PROCESS

 TRUSTING GOD'S PROCESS BY: Evangelist Oluwole Olaleye Christ Witness Evangelical Outreach a.k.a Christ Witness Mission Enquiry:08038533059 Life often brings situations filled with uncertainty, delay, and challenges. During such times, trusting God’s process means believing that He is working behind the scenes for our good—even when we cannot see the outcome immediately. God’s timing and ways are perfect (Isaiah 55:8-9), and His plans for us are to prosper and not to harm, to give us a hopeful future (Jeremiah 29:11). When we trust God’s process, we surrender our impatience and doubts, knowing that He is molding us, preparing us for greater things. Just as a farmer waits patiently for the harvest (James 5:7), we too are called to wait with faith, confident that God’s purpose will be fulfilled at the right time. Key Scripture References: Proverbs 3:5-6 — "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will ma...

WHY PEOPLE LEAVE CHURCH?

 *WHY PEOPLE LEAVE CHURCH*  By: Evangelist Oluwole Olaleye  People leave church for many reasons, and often it’s a combination of personal, social, and spiritual factors. Understanding these reasons can help churches become more welcoming, supportive, and relevant. Here are some common causes:  *Disconnection and Lack of Belonging*  Many leave because they don’t feel connected to the community. If people feel ignored, judged, or like outsiders, they may drift away. A church that doesn’t foster genuine relationships or inclusiveness can push people out.  *Unmet Expectations*  People often join church with certain hopes—spiritual growth, support, meaningful worship. When those expectations aren’t met, disappointment sets in. If sermons, programs, or leadership don’t resonate, people may stop attending.  *Hypocrisy and Leadership Failures*  Scandals, moral failures, or hypocrisy among church leaders can deeply hurt members’ trust. When those in ...

THE CHURCH AS A MORAL COMPASS IN PUBLIC LEADERSHIP

 THE CHURCH AS A MORAL COMPASS IN PUBLIC LEADERSHIP The Church serves as a vital moral compass in public leadership by upholding God’s standards of Righteousness, Justice, and Accountability in society. Through the teaching of Scripture, the Church reminds leaders that authority is a trust from God and must be exercised with Integrity, Humility, and service to the people (Romans 13:1; Micah 6:8). By speaking Truth to power, the Church helps to shape the conscience of leaders and restrain the misuse of power. In times when corruption, injustice, and moral compromise threaten public life, the Church stands as a prophetic voice, calling leaders back to ethical governance and the fear of God (Proverbs 14:34; Isaiah 1:16–17). Beyond advocacy, the Church models Godly leadership through its own practices of transparency, compassion, and stewardship, demonstrating that moral leadership is both possible and practical. When the Church Faithfully fulfills this role, it contributes to the emer...
