In a recent post on Facebook, renowned Nigerian evangelist Mike Bamiloye delivered a stirring message urging Christians to reject worldly temptations in favor of a deeper spiritual commitment. His address, reflecting his consistent theme of Christian devotion, was met with widespread reflection and conversation among his followers.
Bamiloye emphasized that a genuine Christian life is one where the heart is aligned with heavenly aspirations rather than earthly desires. He asserted that true spiritual authority and the ability to impact the world for God’s kingdom are reserved for those whose focus is on eternal, rather than temporal, riches.
According to him, "Brothers and sisters, if the love of the world is in your heart, you have been conquered and require the deliverance of the Cross of Christ by the Spirit of God. For, only those who cannot be enticed by the allure of silver and gold will be entrusted with the power of the name of Jesus."
"Only those with heaven in their hearts can do kingdom on earth. Only those with eyes on things above may echo the saintly petition - thy kingdom come, thy will be done beneath, as it is above. Only they can bind or loose on earth what is bound or loosed yonder."
