  • The Power of Prospective Living
    Jun 5 2025
    THE BOOK OF RUTH| GOD’S RESTORATION PLAN| Preservation and Prospective Living| Discipleship |Session-19| 2025| CHIMDI OHAHUNA Welcome to another episode where we draw lessons and focus on Ruth 1:7-11 and Job 29:18, highlighting the themes of preservation, the importance of a prospective mindset, and the actions that align us with God’s will. In life’s journey, preservation is our greatest priority, especially in times of distress. Life is far more valuable than luxury. As believers, understanding this principle is crucial. When you're facing challenges or experiencing hardships, reveals that God is boasting about you. Every challenge you encounter is a sign of God’s trust in you. Rather than merely observing the difficulties surrounding you, concentrate on what God is doing. Your trials shouldn’t be interpreted as defeat, but as a testimony of God’s confidence in you. Just as Job faced immense suffering yet remained steadfast, we too can find strength in the assurance that God has a purpose for our lives during trying times. In Job 29, we discover that God has secret things meant for us that align our paths and destinies. When the secret of God is upon your tabernacle, it directs you towards your purpose. It’s vital to seek these divine secrets. True faith manifests through action. Helping the poor or those who are vulnerable should be a natural response in our lives, aligning with the compassionate heart of God. Living solely in retrospect hinders our ability to perceive God’s preservation in our lives. It can create a cycle of depression, as we become obsessed with what has been lost rather than focusing on the present and the future that God offers. Every moment spent grieving over the past is essentially a moment wasted. Instead, we must make the present count. Living in the past can trap us in a denial of our future. God calls us to look forward, to embrace a prospective life. When we approach God, we should come with the expectation of what He can do next in our lives rather than dwelling on stale memories. Prospect invigorates our spirits; it fuels our desire to fulfill our God-given destinies. The dangers of becoming ensnared in retrospective thinking can be likened to a cancer that slowly erodes our hope and joy. Every time we entertain thoughts of regret or loss, we risk giving power to those negative feelings. In contrast, a prospective mindset leads us to engage positively with God’s promises. An example is the story of the prodigal son, who despite losing everything, found the courage to return to his father with a prospective heart. Regardless of the losses you may have experienced, there is always hope for the present and the future. Recognize that God’s grace is sufficient, and with it, you can embrace your journey moving forward. Moreover, depression often finds its roots in a retrospective viewpoint where one engages deeply with past failures and disappointments, allowing the enemy to sow seeds of despair. Instead, choose to engage with God, viewing your past through the lens of God’s unending love and future potential. This teaching reveals that preservation is life, not merely luxury. Every challenge we face is an opportunity to demonstrate God’s mighty hand at work. Seek the secrets of God, engage actively with those in need, and choose to live prospectively. Your future is bright as long as you remain focused on what lies ahead. Embrace God’s promises, let them guide your steps, and remember, no matter the trials or losses you may face, the potential for a beautiful future remains firmly in your grasp. Thank you for joining and listening to the full teaching session. Carry these lessons from Ruth with you as you navigate your own life journey, and let God's preservation and purpose shine brightly in all that you do.

    May 25 2025

In this teaching episode, discover how revealing Christ in our lives leads to authentic decisions to follow Him, rather than merely responding to an invitation. KEY HIGHLIGHTS: - The Distinction Between the Called and the Chosen: We emphasize that while many hear the call, it is essential for each person to consciously choose to embrace Jesus and become part of the chosen. This choice is vital to avoid being lost in the crowd of those simply called. - Redefining Rest: Our conversation challenges the notion that food and earthly comforts equate to true rest and profit. We highlight the importance of understanding that manipulation to seize what grace offers ultimately leads to instability and inability to maintain what is gained. - Embracing Grace: We reflect on the dangers of stepping away from grace and how this can result in unnecessary struggles and loss of peace. Recognizing that rest comes from Christ is crucial, especially when external provisions may seem inadequate. - Finding True Rest in Christ: As we navigate life's challenges, we reassure listeners that the only source of genuine rest is Jesus Christ.

  • Power of Community: THE IMPORTANCE OF SPIRITUAL COMPANIONSHIP
    May 24 2025
    THE BOOK OF RUTH| GOD’S RESTORATION PLAN| Living the Message | Discipleship |Session-16 2025| CHIMDI OHAHUNA Welcome to another enlightening session of the GRACELIFECOMI Podcast, where we continue our study on the Book of Ruth. In this episode, we focus on Ruth 1:7 and the companionship between Ruth and Orpah as they assist Naomi. Key Highlights: 1. The Nature of Membership: We reflect on the contrast between denominational membership and being a part of the body of Christ. While denominational affiliations can be fluid, true membership in the body of Christ is static—grounded and rooted in Him. Being part of this body signifies permanence and stability in our faith journey. 2. Influencing Others: Our lives should naturally attract those seeking Christ. If our presence does not draw people toward Him, it indicates a need for deeper spiritual growth. As we allow Christ to be formed in us, we become vessels of encouragement for others, leading them to refreshment in Him. 3. The Burden of Vision: We discuss the weight of the vision God places in our hearts. Just as Ruth and Orpah assisted Naomi with her burdens, we too will need support as we carry out God's vision for our lives. Ministry and life journeys can feel heavy, but having a community is vital for overcoming challenges. 4. The Weight of Spiritual Commitment: Engaging deeply with the Word of God and dedicating time to prayer is one of the heaviest responsibilities in ministry. In this session, we emphasize that our first act of ministry is to share what we desire from God, promoting a cycle of giving and receiving. 5. Challenges of the Journey: As we age and face life’s difficulties, even light burdens can become heavy. We highlight the importance of pursuing God’s calling and the risks associated with following paths outside of His will. 6. The Impact of Our Walk: Our daily choices plant seeds in the lives of those we encounter. Revealing Christ to others not only benefits them but also enhances our own spiritual growth. The way we represent Christ directly influences the support we receive on our journey. 7. The Essence of Assistance: Finally, we remind listeners that the kind of Christ we reveal determines the assistance we receive. By truly unveiling Jesus to others, we open doors to the help needed to continue our mission. Join us for this profound session as we draw lessons from Ruth’s loyalty and service, understanding how our own journeys reflect the importance of community, commitment, and the power of revealing Christ in our daily lives.

    May 12 2025
    WORD EXPLOSION| 2025 Edition | SESSION-5|ENLIGHTENED LIVING|CHIMDI & FUNKE OHAHUNA Join hosts Chimdi and Funke Ohahuna for an enlightening new episode of Word Explosion 2025 Edition as they conduct an intense and thorough study of the Gospel according to John. This episode is designed to deepen your understanding of God’s revelation through Jesus Christ, employing various translations of the scripture to shed light on fundamental truths that shape our faith. In The Divine Revelation in the Book of John, the Ohahuna duo will vividly unpack core passages, including John 1:9, which asserts that “In and through Jesus Christ, God revealed Himself, His works, and desires to Man.” They will guide listeners through key verses such as John 1:1-5 and John 1:14, connecting these insights to Hebrews 1:1-3 and 1 John 1:1-3. The focus will be on God’s longing for a genuine relationship with humanity, illustrating how Jesus serves as the perfect embodiment of that desire. Listeners will be captivated as they examine the weighty proclamation found in John 8:58, where Jesus declares, “Before Abraham was, I am.” This statement carries profound implications about His eternal existence and divinity. Chimdi and Funke will challenge the common view of God as a distant entity, illustrating instead how He yearns for a personal connection with each of us. They will also reflect on John 1:11, emphasizing the impact of Jesus coming to His own and not being received, highlighting the pain of disconnection between God and humanity. With heartfelt discussions and personal anecdotes, the hosts will remind us that God is deeply engaged with the human experience. He is not put off by our imperfections; rather, He walks alongside us, sharing in our struggles. As cited in Hebrews 4:15, Jesus is our high priest, intimately acquainted with our feelings of weakness. The hosts will emphasize that God is a reality in our lives—approachable, present, and eager to form a relationship. This episode invites you to embrace the true nature of God as revealed in the Book of John.
