BOOK REVIEW: Fulfilling Your Days By Bishop David Oyedepo

Cover of The Book By Bishop David Oyedepo
Fulfilling your days by Bishop Oyedepo is a very powerful book. An eye opener for me. It explains a lot about life, choices and death.

Today is also his birthday which makes it fitting to share his impact.

In this review, I highlight the major points that I picked from the book.

- Jesus has the key of death and He showed that with examples when He died Matt 27: 50 -53 which Paul confirmed in Colosians 2:15. - That Jesus showed us practical example of the authority/Keys He's been given by God by Raising the dead immediately He gave up the ghost after saying it is finished in John 19:30. 

- We should ask Jesus for help when facing the horrors of death or life and He will answer.
- The book also says that 70 years is the minimum age we(are covenanted to live Ps. 90:10) but it can be increased to 120 -180 as we want and according to our strength). 

- He reminded us about what Hezekiah did in Isaiah 38; calling/putting God to


remembrance of His word and promises and God added 15 more years to him. 

- Papa says to die less than 70 isn't good. David died a good old age of 70(1 Chronicles 29:26-28) after reigning for forty years and was rich in everything like Abraham.

-  I was also reminded that it is a choice to live long. I have a choice from David who died at 70 - Abraham and Isaac who died at 175 and 180 respectively. 

- It is not something to pray for but to find with wisdom. Prov. 3:13-16

- That we should look to our Fathers Jeremiah 6:16... our covenant examples of what God has in mind for us and how long and well we should live. Isaiah 51:1-2.

- Psalm 91 was called the Long Life Psalm: i.e it has covenant terms for long life. Serve God and He will provide every other thing listed in Ps 91.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PAPA!

Song: Praise Is What I Do By Skekinah Glory Ft. William Murphy

When I understood the lyrics of this song, I could only cry. This song is uplifting, talks about one of God's commandments (Malachi 2:1-3). It is also a vow to praise God no matter our situation. Praise is a debt we owe God.

Book Review: Born Again by Dag Heward-Mills

Picture from Google Born Again by Bishop Dag Heward-Mills is a short but great read. For me, It is great reminder of salvation and that Hell is real. The author explained: What it means to be born again.  What people think being born again is, that's wrong. He explained with biblical examples that the term Born Again means to be re-produced or re-created He talked about the different levels of hell and described hell fire. He said that hell has different stages  citing Deut 32: 22 which talked about the LOWEST HELL. He mentioned the steps to salvation and what to know/do after repentance/salvation. Dag Heward -Mills said we can't remember all our sins but we should always ask for forgiveness when we pray 1 John 1:5-9 I had to check myself again and ask for forgiveness after  reading this book.
