FILL THE EMPTINESS by Joseph Aanuoluwapo Motunrayo

-

After the fall of man in the Garden of Eden, there has been a vacuum, emptiness in man that only eternity can fill. This however occurred as a product of man’s volition to reject God’s SUPPLY OF ETERNAL LIFE, through the tree of life in the midst of Eden.

Some people, in their attempt to fill up this emptiness continue to chase after shadows thinking temporal, ephemeral, and corruptible things can actually fill it up – a similitude of man’s gain from his decision to work for a self-acclaimed rest, which never worked and will never work out though. They therefore desired to find a shortcut to fill up this emptiness; by accumulating wealth upon wealth, they actually think money can fill up this emptiness but alas, the emptiness is still there.
Some even thought that marriage will fill up the emptiness, but to their bewilderment, it only showed how empty they really are…they needed no prophet to tell them that it’s not the solution they desired after countless break-ups with no perfection in view.

It is time for us to know that this emptiness can only be filled by Eternity, and provision has been made for the filling; Christ (the one panacea for man’s countless malady) has come to fill the emptiness and the earlier we believe the better it is for us.

Trying to fill this emptiness with carnality (things that appeal to sight and sound of physical senses) is a waste of time. The only solution is to accept Christ as your Lord and Savior, as His indwelling fills the emptiness.
Happy New Year
A year of fruitfulness

DON’T CALL ME PASTOR. By Awotiku Akinlayo David This dispensation of time is filled with many Christians that are proud of their spiritual stagnancy. They enjoyed being babes in Christianity. It has become a normal phenomenon to be a church goer or join one unit and still be spiritually stagnant, the same level he joined the unit is still the same level he was spiritually since 10 or 5 years he got born again even till date. This category of Christians are so proud of this that they always assume there is a special grace for those who are passionate in preaching, teaching and praying vigorously and consistently, therefore those ones are referred to as the pastors while they are the members and spiritual children. It is so disheartening that when you talk with them about the bible or anything that pertains to spiritual things, they will start flattering you with different spiritual titles like ‘pastor, (they will even drag it), and they’ll go paaasstorrr, apostle, maaan of ...

THE MYSTERY OF MY NAME (Personal) [DAVID] By Awotiku Akinlayo David

SESSION 2 DAVID This is a very common Christian name meant for special and extraordinary persons in the world (lols many will be jealous now, don’t worry you are unique also) If I am opportune to come back to this world and name myself, David will be the first name that will come into my mind. The qualities of David from the bible were specially arranged and extraordinarily different from any other person. In Acts.13:22, we clearly see the testimony of God Himself towards David, ‘a man after God’s heart’ so are we the David of our generation, we are unique, special and handsome (just like me) because we are God’s beloved. Actually, David from the original Hebrew word, it is from the word ‘dawidh’ which means ‘Beloved’ . According to 1Sam.16:18, He was skillful in playing harp, mighty man of valor, man of war, prudent in speech, handsome in look and basically, THE LORD WAS WITH HIM. I kept on wondering how can a musician be a warrior as well and how can a warrior be ha...
