NOVEMBER 2025 EDITION OF EXCERPTS FROM SOME OF HIS LORDSHIP’S MESSAGES.

MUCH LOVE AND GREETINGS FROM YOUR FRIEND AND BISHOP – THE RT. REV’D PROF. SAMUEL O. IKE, the Diocesan Bishop of Enugu (Anglican Communion).

Please read, digest and share.

1. The Best Agent of Integrity Is the word of God. BE A BIBLE STUDENT, FRIENDS. (Colossians 3:16; 4:6).

2. When Sin is Starved to Death:
The sin nature in man is naturally starved to death by a deliberate studying, intake and meditation on God’s word. (1 John 5: 4 & 18; Ezra 7: 10).

3. The best proof of integrity is living by the word of God. The more of God’s word in your mind and heart, the more you become like Jesus Christ. (Psalm 119: 10 & 11).

4. Spirituality without living by every word of God is mere noise making and hypocrisy of the highest order. Dear Child of God; do you live by every word of God? (Matthew 4: 4).

5. The higher you climb in Christian leadership, the more you are exposed to the tendencies of paying less attention to the real things of the Kingdom; be careful great man of God. Major in the major things please. (Luke 10: 41 & 42).

6. Dear Preacher, do you preach to impress or to impact lives? Deep communicates to deep; Preach from your heart not from your head. Head preaching can be sweet / eloquent, yet it lacks transformational grace to the hearers. Oh Lord, raise for yourself a generation of Preachers that Practice what they Preach. (2 Timothy 2: 15; James 1: 22).

7. The greatest advantage every child of God has is the Person of the Holy Spirit. Friends, latch into this advantage and get the highest counsel in the history of human race therein. (John 14: 26).

8. Christianity Has a Standard: AT ALL TIMES BE A CHRISTIAN. Not only when it is convenient for you or when you are in the mood of living for Jesus Christ by human standards. (Ephesians 4:14).

9. The Error Ravaging the Church of Today:
“Pretentiously holy” living has remained a major error ravaging the 21st century Church. Please dear Christian, don’t be holy in the morning (probably Sunday morning) and a viper / demon in the afternoon / evening. Holiness is possible in this perilous times. Who are you when God’s eyes are on you, friends? (Psalms 139: 23 & 24; 1 Peter 1: 15 & 16).

10. Friends, you do not need to be an armed robber to be a sinner; if you are spiritually asleep, you are a sinner that needs God’s help. Physically Alive and Spiritually Dead; what a generation of dead men, yet alive! (Ephesians 5: 14).

11. No matter how successful a man is, when he lives in sin, he performs below his potentials. (Hebrews 12: 1; John 8: 34; John 1: 4).

12. “HALF LIFE” IS A LIFE LIVED OUTSIDE THE SAVING GRACE OF JESUS CHRIST. You can be complete in Him, friends. All it will take is to say Lord; I am sorry for my sins, please come into my life, Lord Jesus. (Colossians 2: 9 & 10).

FRIENDS, MAY YOU RECEIVE GRACE TO END WELL IN THIS YEAR OF OUR LORD “2025”; ESPECIALLY IN THIS MONTH OF DECEMBER. GOD’S RICHEST GRACE!!
