THE FOUNDATION

The spiritual foundation of which the Word of God speaks:

IS BASED ON GOD'S WORD:

God's word stands firm like a rock [foundation]; nothing can shake it.

(II Timothy 2:19) The Living Bible

IS A GOOD FOUNDATION:

Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation. (I Timothy 6:19)

IS BASED ON RIGHTEOUSNESS:

The uncompromisingly righteous has an everlasting foundation. (Proverbs 10:25) The Amplified Bible

IS ETERNAL:

...Laying up for themselves the riches that endure forever, a good foundation for the future... (I Timothy 6:19) The Amplified Bible

RESTS ON TWO BASIC PRINCIPLES:

But the firm foundation laid by God stands sure and unshaken, bearing this seal and inscription: The Lord knows those who are His and let everyone who names and stand aloof from it. (II Timothy 2:19) The Amplified Bible

The two principles upon which the foundation stands are:

1. Redeemed men:                           The Lord knows those who are His.

2. Living redeemed lives:                Let everyone who names himself by the name of the

                                                            Lord give up all iniquity and stand aloof from it.

IS BUILT UPON A ROCK WHICH IS IMMOVABLE:

He is like a man which built a house and digged deep and laid the foundation on a rock and when the flood arose and beat vehemently on the house it could not shake it for it was founded on a rock. (Luke 6:48)

THAT ROCK IS JESUS CHRIST:

There is no other rock; I know not any. (Isaiah 44:8) The Amplified Bible

Jesus Christ is the only foundation for spiritual life:

For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. (I Corinthians 3:11)

Stand, fight the good fight of faith, the lukewarm spirt is at your door

Posted by Alphonse Okossi on December 29, 2011 at 9:04pm

Many today think that it is too deep to take time out for fasting and prayer at the end of the year. Many also believe that "it does not take all of that.." when it come to our walk of faith but these are the signs of a spirit that is becoming lookwarm, to put it more seriously, it is an gradual manifestation of spiritual death in a believer.

Brothers and sister this coming year say no to religious status quo: dont just play church, be the Church of Jesus Christ. Fight the good fight of faith, take hold of eternal life. Do not fall prey of the deceptive alternatives of world system. We certainly do not want Jesus to tell us in that day "depart from Me, I never knew you, you who practice lawlessness"

In Every God Ordained Promise There is a God Ordained Process

Posted by Alphonse Okossi on September 19, 2009 at 2:15am
With God there is hardly a drive through or fast food service: God made seasons so that they can bring God's purpose to fruition. Leaves fall in Fall may be to fertilize the soil, Winter is probably there to cool off the earth so that we don't reach umbearable temperatures and to purge the land of some destructive bacterias; all this to work together to make Spring ready for seed sowing so that we can enjoy the fruit in Summer. God has made everything beautiful in its proper time. This is something we must understand when God is doing something in our own life or lives of those close to us. We must learn to wait on God by not going ahead or before Him. In the meantime there are plenty of work to be done in every season and many fun things of life we can do in season waiting for harvest. In the meantime also we can adjust our defensive and offensive spiritual weapons to fight effectively and be victorious within each season. But in all we do we must avoid what the children of Israel did in the wilderness: complain! Rather we must rejoice because God is surely bringing deliverance and we can only enter our promiseland by faith or we may die in the wasteland. So friend trust in the Lord always and rejoice!
