Evangelist Marcus speaks on the untold blessings of living by Justification grace through faith. The bible tells us emphatically that a man or woman is saved by grace through faith. And the amazing thing is that this is a wonderful gift.

Eph 2:8, 9 –  by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.

God Always Remembers His Own

Pastor Donald Menga passionately declares the faithfulness of the Lord. God always remembers His own. No matter how hard the battle, with God we are more than victorious through the God who comes to our aid!

The Carnal Christian Loses All

Pastor Donald mentioned Lot, the nephew of Abraham.  Lot journeyed with Abraham but was always a trouble to him.    Lot  is a picture of a carnal Christian; .Lot is a picture of a Christian who is still fleshly.  As the Apostle Paul said in First Corinthians, chapter 3 speaking to these kinds of believers…..

1 Cor 3:1 to 4 – Dear brothers and sisters, when I was with you I couldn’t talk to you as I would to spiritual people.I had to talk as though you belonged to this world or as though you were infants in Christ. 2I had to feed you with milk, not with solid food, because you weren’t ready for anything stronger. And you still aren’t ready, 3for you are still controlled by your sinful nature. You are jealous of one another and quarrel with each other. Doesn’t that prove you are controlled by your sinful nature? Aren’t you living like people of the world? 4When one of you says, “I am a follower of Paul,” and another says, “I follow Apollos,” aren’t you acting just like people of the world?

Many of the Christians at Corinthians were truly  saved and possessed eternal life and they were definitely NOT ordinary unsaved men.   However they were ACTING LIKE ordinary unsaved men.   Such a man was Lot.  We read previously that Lot had pitched his tent  close to sinful Sodom (Genesis 13:12),  But now we see that he is actually in Sodom!  .Those believers with maturity of spirit set their heart and mind on things above where Christ sits at the right hand of God, (Col 3:1).  However  the Bible teaches that there are carnal Christians who have many “ fleshly” desires for unwise ( or even forbidden) things.  Lot would represent  the Christian of today who desires God but also desires the things of this present evil world. That is why scripture exhorts us in Romans chapter 12  To present our bodies completely to the Lord in order that we can find his will and be sanctified by allowing God to renew our minds..

Rom 12: 1 to 3 – And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him.b 2Don’t copy the behaviour and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.

Lot however, without growing in Christ’s grace,  lost everything.   There are many Christians who when they stand before the Lord when the rewards are given out will receive no rewards. Their works that they have done and the attitudes of their hearts are far less than perfect; they are not gold, silver, precious stones as they stand before Jesus.  They are worthless like wood, hay and stubble.   They may look good, but they are not.based on pure and holy motivated and a deep love for Jesus Christ.  .Many carnal Christians.Will be saved.Like as by fire.They will be saved, but they will suffer loss.

1 Cor 3; 11 thru 15 – no one can lay any foundation other than the one we already have—Jesus Christ. 12Anyone who builds on that foundation may use a variety of materials—gold, silver, jewels, wood, hay, or straw. 13But on the judgement day, fire will reveal what kind of work each builder has done. The fire will show if a person’s work has any value. 14If the work survives, that builder will receive a reward. 15But if the work is burned up, the builder will suffer great loss. The builder will be saved, but like someone barely escaping through a wall of flames.

And I guess that “suffering loss” means that they will lose their rewards for faithful service!  So the carnal Christian may  lose everything except his eternal salvation.   He may get into heaven through fire.

The Prayer God Answers

Pastor Donald Menga preaches powerfully on the effectiveness of prevailing prayer in Jesus mighty Name. Payer filled with, expectation, faith and perseverance is the prayer God answers!

VIDEO PRESENTATION – THE PRAYER GOD ANSWERS

Fervent Prayer Brings Results

God is a prayer answering God!   The Lord does hear us when we pray.   God not only hears us but  answers prayer.  Yes, fervent prayer brings results!

Psalm 34:15- The eyes of the LORD are toward the righteous, And His ears are toward their cry for help.  

Verse 17 to 20 – The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears and rescues them from all their troubles.  The LORD is near to the broken hearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.  The afflictions  of the righteous are many, but the LORD rescues him from them all.  He protects all his bones, Not one of them is broken. 

There is (and has been through all history) overwhelming proof of God’s faithfulness.  His faithfulness in bringing men deliverance,  when in deep trouble they call on Him. 

Psa 34:22- Divine deliverances will compass the righteous around (Revised Version).

Sincere Christians are always being given new proofs of the goodness of the Lord, and of the blessedness of all who put their trust in him!  Their fervent prayer brings results and God’s many deliverances In their lives will cause the godly to be very courageous .

Prov 28:1- The wicked flee when no man chases, but the righteous are bold as a lion!

An Angel Breaks Chains

The apostle Peter for example was  miraculously ‘ busted out of jail’ in answer to the prayers of fellow Christian believers.    We read this account of God’s miraculous intervention in Acts 12:

Acts 12: 5 to 11. – Peter was therefore kept in prison, but constant prayer was offered to God for him by the church. 6And when Herod was about to bring him out, that night Peter was sleeping, bound with two chains between two soldiers; and the guards before the door were [c]keeping the prison. 7Now behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the prison; and he struck Peter on the side and raised him up, saying, “Arise quickly!” And his chains fell off his hands. 8Then the angel said to him, “Gird yourself and tie on your sandals’ ‘; and so he did. And he said to him, “Put on your garment and follow me.” 9So he went out and followed him, and did not know that what was done by the angel was real, but thought he was seeing a vision. 10When they were past the first and the second guard posts, they came to the iron gate that leads to the city, which opened to them of its own accord; and they went out and went down one street, and immediately the angel departed from him.
11And when Peter had come to himself, he said, “Now I know for certain that the Lord has sent His angel, and has delivered me from the hand of Herod and from all the expectation of the Jewish people.

During Peter’s imprisonment constant prayer was offered on his behalf. Our lord Jesus has encouraged us to be persistent, tireless and full of anticipation in prayer. Peter was wonderfully and miraculously delivered.

Keep Your Finger On The Prayer Button

The man who is known as the Prince of Preachers, Charles Haddon Spurgeon, gave the following illustration of prevailing continuous prayer. ……

He said – “During my recent visit to Italy, when in the hotel, I desired the attention of the waiter, and observing the button to be pressed, I applied my thumb as instructed, but no waiter appeared; I repeated the experiment several times, with no better success. Presently another visitor entered, and, hearing my desire, asked if I had rung the bell. I told him I had, without success. “Ah,” said he, “you do not understand; I have been here before,” and placing his thumb upon the button, he kept it there till the waiter appeared. That is how we must pray: keep up continuous application until the answer arrives”. 

Yes, keep your finger on the prayer button.

Jesus Breaking Chains

Peter had been put in prison unjustly.  But thank God there is deliverance as we call upon the precious Name of the Lord, and Peter was freed by the power of God..   But there are many who are imprisoned and in chains for many other reasons.  Prisons of depression.  Prisons of despair.  Prisons of doubt of God’s love.  Prisons of alcohol addiction and drug addiction.  Prisons of besetting sin  that cannot be forsaken.  But today we know that Jesus can break every chain and save every prisoner free that calls upon his name.

A Healing By The Power of Jesus Christ

Messenger Marcus preaches on divine healing. Many people throughout the world through the centuries have receive miraculously a healing by the power of Jesus Christ. Marcus gives some thoughts on the healing ministry.

Jesus Heals Today

I know that Jesus heals today. I know that Jesus Christ of Nazareth heals today.  I have had miracles in my own life from Jesus Christ’s miraculous power.   In 2008 of the returning from a Philippine mission I got a letter from the hospital saying that after a routine examination they had found that I had two tumours in the bladder and they had to be removed. It must have been urgent because they scheduled the operation for 10 days time!  When I visited the consultant before I was hospitalised,  I was told, “  you have two tumours in the bladder and they must be removed”. 

“My wife and I were thinking at that time about courses of treatment and possible chemotherapy.  But we decided to have prayer. A man of God prayed over me and prayed, When they open up Marcus please don’t let them find anything Lord”.  And do you know something;  those  tumors were miraculously removed. I did have an operation –  but they could find nothing.  The doctors were sure enough to rush me to the hospital but they never were able to explain what happened how those tumours that they were so certain  about just disappeared. I know that this was the power of Jesus Christ of Nazareth who is still healing the sick today.  Time forbids me to talk more about other miracles that I’ve experienced.   Suffice it to say that I’ve had two other large miracles of healing that came from the hand of precious God. “My wife and I were thinking at that time about courses of treatment and possible chemotherapy.  But we decided to have prayer. A man of God prayed over me and prayed, en they open up Marcus please don’t let them find anything Lord”.  And do you know something;  those  tumors were miraculously removed.

Who Are The Father, Son and Holy Spirit

Messenger Marcus takes a closer look at the Holy Trinity. Who are the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Marcus shows that we need all three of the Trinity for an abundant life enjoying our salvation and eternal destiny. He proves from scripture the DEITY of all three. The Trinity is not just a doctrinal theological theory. The Trinity if for our blessing and enjoyment!

The Trinity Should Be Our Joy

It’s easy to look at the doctrine of the Holy Trinity as just academic;   as some dusty and antiquated creed that we just recite.   But the truth is that the doctrine of the Trinity should be our joy because the Trinity is not for dusty doctrine but for living enjoyment.  We desperately  need all three of the Trinity in our spiritual journey and we will see as we go through this teaching that each member of the Trinity bequeaths a specific and beautiful contribution  in bringing eternal salvation with all its many blessings   I would like to say at the commencement that one very simple way of looking at the Trinity is that the Father is the source and everything comes from him.   Then the Son accomplished the mighty and glorious work of redemption and all the victories he won are IN HIM.  Then we come to the precious Holy Spirit  who takes the things of Christ that are in Christ and communicates them to us in such a beautiful and tender away

The Only One With Life In Himself

Turn with me in your bibles to the book of Isaiah,

Isaiah 43: 10 to 13 – You are My witnesses,” declares the LORD, “and My servant whom I have chosen, so that you may consider and believe Me and understand that I am He. Before Me no god was formed, and after Me none will come.  11I, yes I, am the LORD, and there is no Saviour but Me. 12I alone decreed and saved and proclaimed— I, and not some foreign god among you. Soyou are My witnesses,” declares the LORD,  “that I am God.13Even from eternity I am He, and none can deliver out of My hand. When I act, who can reverse it?”

This scripture clearly shows us that God is eternal and is the only one with life in himself.   God being eternal  means that God never had a beginning and he never has an end;  in fact He is at the beginning and the end at the same time.  Actually God  is ‘outside of time’.   Nothing created God.   He is eternal and has life in himself and never had a beginning but exists eternally from eternity past  to eternity future .

And we learn from this scripture in Isaiah  that there was no God before him and that there will never be another God after him.   Our God our triune  God is self sufficient..
