God's word isn't in jail

There are several kinds of jail. Physical jail, mental jail, emotional jail, and imaginary jail. And some people are imprisoned in a jail of their own making while others are imprisoned by situations and circumstances. 

And some think that because they are jailed, the word of God is also jailed. That when they imprison the messenger that carries the message, they have imprisoned the message but they would be sadly disappointed. The word of God is not in jail, cannot be jailed, and will not be jailed. 

"It's what I'm sitting in jail for right now--but God's Word isn't in jail!" (2Tim.2.9) 

I do not know what kind of jail you find yourself in right now. But I am here to tell you that the word of God can come into that jail and break you free but the word cannot be jailed. 

The word set Paul and Silas free from the jailhouse in Philippi and the word can do the same for you. 

"And suddenly there was a great earthquake so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and everyone's bands were loosed."(Acts.16.26)

The word is that powerful, with it, prison doors can be opened. 

It is important to remember that the word of God cannot be restricted, confined, or imprisoned. So speak God's word to whatever has imprisoned you. Jesus said that you shall know the truth, and the truth that you know will set you free. 

"And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." (John.8.32 NLT) 

Good day, 
Have a great day today,

What's in a name?

What's in a name?  "He named him Noah, saying, "This one will give us a break from the hard work of farming the ground that GOD cursed." (Gen.5.29)  Names have prophetic attributes in them. When a thing is named, the name defines what it does and what it cannot do. When a person is named, his future is foretold, especially when the persons parents are in tune with the agenda of God. But that person has to work to bring that prophecy to reality.  John the baptist was a case in point when the wrong name would have been given. If the parent had not listened and obeyed God's instruction but instead bow to family and societal pressure.  "And his mother answered and said, Not so; but he shall be called John." (Luke.1.60)  Another example is Benjamin, the second son from the loved-wife of Jacob. As the mother was dying from the pain of childbirth, he called the child Benoni but his father says not so, he shall be called Benjamin  "With her las

Jesus is the answer to the sin problem

Jesus is the answer to the sin problem  "When he served as a sacrifice for our sins, he solved the sin problem for good--not only ours, but the whole world's". (1John.1.2 MSB) When Adam and Eve sinned in the Garden of Eden, the sin passed through them to all men. And so the Bible recorded that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.  "Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:" (Rom.5.12)  But that was just the beginning of the story. Sin entered the world, and death came as a result of sin. It appears that mankind was doomed.  But Jesus came and served the punishment for sin and in so doing, He solved the sin problem for good. Now mankind has access once again to the Father. Now everything the Father has for us is at our disposal. Now we can reign by Jesus Christ and receive the abundance that God has for us.  "For if by one man's offence death reigned b

Who makes me who I am

An Isoko adage says, "the name you call yourself is what others will call you. Meeting students, I have had cause to ask them if that was the name their parents named them and they say no. My real name is...and then they tell me. But whatever they call themselves is what other students call them. You are who you say you are, but the truth is, you act the way you become because you think that's who you are. So if you called yourself a policeman when you are a soldier, you will act as a policeman. If you are an eagle but call yourself a chicken, then you will act like a chicken. If you call yourself a failure, that's what you begin to act as. Little wonder, Jabez changed his name in the place of prayer, he declared that he is blessed and God granted his prayers. (see 1Chro:4:9-10). The way you act is a deep-seated product of who you think you are and who you think you are is a product of who you call yourself. What do you call yourself? Who are you? "What
