THE HIDDEN MYSTERY FINALLY REVEALED


THE HIDDEN MYSTERY FINALLY REVEALED 

Colossians 1:24-29, ESV

24. NOW I REJOICE IN MY SUFFERINGS FOR YOUR SAKE, AND IN MY FLESH I AM FILLING UP WHAT IS LACKING IN CHRIST'S AFFLICTIONS FOR THE SAKE OF HIS BODY, THAT IS, THE CHURCH, 

25. OF WHICH I BECAME A MINISTER ACCORDING TO THE STEWARDSHIP FROM GOD THAT WAS GIVEN TO ME FOR YOU, to make the word of God fully known, 

26. THE MYSTERY (also of the Pastors' Wives) HIDDEN FOR AGES AND GENERATIONS BUT NOW REVEALED TO HIS SAINTS. 

27. To them God chose to make known how great among the Gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. 

28. Him we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom, that we may present everyone mature in Christ. 

29. FOR THIS I TOIL, STRUGGLING WITH ALL HIS ENERGY THAT HE POWERFULLY WORKS WITHIN ME.


This is the mystery of the hidden benefits and helps of the Pastors' Wives and the Female Ministers in the Body of Christ, the Church which has been ignorantly unspoken of and carelessly ignored as a result of superiority tussle and fight for headship and relevance or other flimsy reasons which I see as baseless and uncalled for. 

IT'S BECAUSE OF THIS I'M CALLED; FOR THIS I TOIL, STRUGGLING WITH ALL HIS ENERGY THAT HE POWERFULLY WORKS WITHIN ME. 

It's a ministry of SACRIFICE and HELP. It's an unusual ministry; a ministry not for all. It's a ministry that demands much and endangers personality — EVEN THE PERSONALITY OF THE CROSS BEARER, because he's called from across the borders; the borders of her who has none or less to help herself.

It's for this I became a Minister; even in pains, labour and toil have I been brought and ordained from my mother's womb. 

This is a call for diligence. It's given to me for you; to toil, labour, and groan. NOW, I REJOICE IN MY SUFFERINGS FOR YOUR SAKE, AND IN MY FLESH have I born this cross with the overflowing tears in my heart — the heart that pants and seeks for help without any in sight. 

All I know is that, I'M MORE THAN A CONQUEROR. My hands are strengthened. My faith is firm in Him. My knee caps are not and can't be shaky of reaching out to Him. My thoughts can't run to and from; it's just to Him and forever to Him. 

I will remain! I will keep serving, even though it's a ministry of who-cares?. I know the Lord care. He doesn't forget, He doesn't fidget; He's concerned. 

Thank You, because You're concerned!

Thank You, because You care. 

Much Love, Lord!

CONVERSATION WITH THE MAKE-UP ARTIST IN OWERRI

  CONVERSATION WITH THE MAKE-UP ARTIST IN OWERRI By Chioma Ifeanyi-Eze When I speak at events, most of the organizers send in a makeup artist. May God bless them o. In Owerri few days ago, I had a conversation with the make-up artist while doing my face. In my usual way, I would spend 10 minutes explaining my rules to the artist.  No foundation or any thick coverage. No lashes. No shine-shine. No contouring. Just do my brows, shadows, rub powder and lipstick. Then leave. Some of them would struggle to accept my wishes, but luckily, this one understood my personality and nicely accepted. So we became friends and got chatting. I asked her what she thought about the Buhari administration and how the country was going. She explained that things were bad in Nigeria and she had a list of things that Buhari should have done which he didn't. Then I asked her, How is make-up business going in Owerri? She said it wasn't great. Many days of low or no income. Then I said, "

The Beauty of a Pastor's Wife

The Beauty of a Pastor's Wife. WHAT'S BEAUTY?  Beauty in this regard is a state of being made by the formation of some or those abstract property, qualities which please the aesthetic senses of the beholder and complements the physical beauty of the subject under study.  WHO IS A PASTOR'S WIFE? In the light of the ministerial activities and the constitution of The Pastor's Wife Welfare Organization International, a Pastor's wife is any female person who is married to a male Christian minister of the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ whether he be called Bishop, Apostle, Prophet, Pastor, Evangelist, or whatsoever name or title he may chose for himself irrespective of the female person’s（woman’s）spiritual status. It is immaterial if the husband attended Theological school or not, or if the woman is born again or not. Now, I will speak to the rest of you, though I do not have a direct command from the Lord. If a Christian man has a wife who is an unbeliever a
