Our God is merciful. When you call for mercy, heaven stands still and moves to show mercy, and what is required of us other to to love justly, love mercy and walk humbly with God.

Unity of the Spirit comes through humility that regards others better than oneself, that nothing is done out of selfish ambitions and conceit.

Every man is created with a desire to worship. We build altars and high places from where we worship. For those who have know the living God, we concentrate our altars and its utensils, honor the altar and remain at the altar.

 Whoever has the alter has authority, life, power to transform, the anointing and restoration.

To be lost is to be spiritually dead, to be enslaved by the course of this world, by Satan himself, by rebellion to the commandment of God and by the inordinate desires of our flesh and mind.

2 King 17:29 - the nations made gods of their own. Genesis 1:26 - 28, God made man in His image and likeness.

Yet we live as those who have made God to our image and liking, for our own exploit. Are we going to live as those made in the image of God or are we going to project God into our own image?

Romans 12:1 is of vital importance in the life of a believer. Before going out to represent Christ, one must be at the alter - long enough to have his desires and appetites disciplined and his loyalty fashioned to God with fire.

Sermon delivered by Pastor Suleman at Laborers in Christ Ministry on 10/04/2020

1 Peter 4:1, "Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh,  arm yourselves also with the same mind, for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin."

The sin that so easily ensnares us - as the scriptures record in Hebrews 12:4, hinders many from the fellowship of the sufferings of Christ. Jesus resisted sin, fighting against it to the point of shedding blood at the garden of Gethsemane. This is the ultimate death to the flesh for the Spirit to reign.  

The Nation of Israel was God's Special tool to punish the disobedience that was occupying the promised land, and to drive them out. God had to do away with a disobedient generation and through Joshua at Gilgal, usher in an obedient Israel to judge and drive out the occupants of Canaan.

May your obedience be fulfilled inside, for God desires to partner with you to drive out darkness that is occupying your promises.

Covetousness is idolatry. It is walking away from God. Covetousness places you as the insufficient judge of your life, leading to an endless pursuit of transient things that defile. Let it not even be mentioned among you (Ephesians 5:5). Be content in the things that you have - with your eyes and mind on things above, where your treasures and and you are seated with Christ. He will never leave you nor forsake you. This promise is a summation of all His promises to you.

Be blessed.
