God's not broke!

When the Bible says that 'Jesus became poor' {2Cor8:9}, people look at it in terms of material possessions going as far as saying that He could not afford His basic needs, and depended on others. But they miss point all-together. God cannot lack. Jesus humbled himself so much so, even to fit in a planet in form of a man (God cannot be confined) .. (see Phil2:5-11); a human who gets tempted, who gets hungry, who gets worn out, who has needs. This is the poverty that God talks about. He limited himself so much to become like us, so that we might become like Him. (He became poor, that we might be rich).

God allowed Himself, in the form of Jesus, to feel pain, and suffering, to be tempted, to live under law and not grace. In this way, he became poor. He felt first-hand how hard it was to live under the limitations of the law. The Bible says 'He was tempted in every way yet was without sin' {Hebrews 2:18; 4:15}. He came full of grace, and preached love and forgiveness and acceptance, mercy, freedom from bondage, righteousness and holiness.

We're rich!

{2Cor5:17} Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!

{1Peter2:9} But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.

We're rich, not just materially, but spiritually for we have eternal hope through Christ Jesus. We're rich in the love of God, in his grace. We're rich in that Jesus died for our sins, and rose that we might live freely ever after(eternally).

He took all our infirmities.

We're healed. We're rich.

Does anybody hear me?


I stand in the midst of the people,
Lost, trying to find meaning for life,
Indecisive, confused and fickle,
Behind the shadows longing to thrive.

In the midst of so much noise,
Lost in all the confusion,
Longing just to hear that voice,
That draws me away from illusion.














Even though I’m growing weary,
I’ve yet to quite give up,
Cried but no more teary,
Running but without a map.

Someone told me that Jesus cares,
That He came to save me from death,
And that in His word he declares,
His love transcends any form of depth.

So I let out a loud cry,
That all would be still,
As I seek to hear Him say,
I’ll save you from all things cruel.

But the noise keep getting louder,
I’m getting desperate Lord can you hear,
And as I expect the Lord in all His grandeur,
He whispers ‘Child I’m always near’.

He opens my eyes to the reality,
That he’s always been by my side,
And I can now see with all clarity,
That my fears all along made me blind.


More of you


I want more of you 
I want more of you Jesus 
Cause the more I know you 
The more I want to know you














Jesus More of you
You make my life so beautiful

As you are you have made me on earth
There’s nothing greater than this 
That is why I will love you evermore


More of you 

More of you 
More of you

Jesus more of you


Sinach



More of You
