The Joy of the Lord   NAACUS Women's Ministry Virtual Retreat Reflection  By Nma Rose Nwoga The Joy of the Lord   The joy of the Lord refers to Christ’s love for His Father and the Father’s love towards Him. Christ’s joy  can be seen in the awareness of the father’s love and in the keeping of His Commandments.  All his actions, thoughts, emotions and purpose were in perfect harmony with the will of God. This unbroken communion with the Father is the the source of Christ’s joy. This is the joy He desires that we inherit as Christians.  As the Father loved Jesus, so also he has loved us His followers. He challenges us to remain in his love by keeping his commandments just as He kept His Father’s commandments and remained in his love. To be truly joyful then, one must pursue a life of personal holiness and relationship with Christ through prayers and sacrifices. The Importance of Joy in Witnessing As Christians, we are called to be witnesses and joy is an important

3   Introduction NAACUS Women Ministry Presents Ruth, one of  the leading Ladies in the Bible.   When we hear about Leading Ladies, we often think about glamour, fame, success and beauty, but probably not sacrifice, spirituality, and asceticism. But these leading ladies from the biblical point of view are all about leading us closer to God and deeper in our faith. In this article you will learn about  a remarkable leading Lady called Ruth,  who even though she bore no child for her late  Jewish husband,  chose to stay  with  Naomi  her poor  mother in-law .  She speaks to the line to which she is most remembered “wherever you go, l shall go, wherever you lodge, l shall lodge. . .”.  We shall learn how   God rewarded her piety, steadfastness, long suffering devotion and love  and made  her  the  ancestor of extraordinary descendants including our Lord Jesus Christ.  Like our Mother Mary who we encountered with Elizabeth and others, and Esther who we encountered with others  as well , we

  NAACUS WOMEN'S MINISTRY: NEWSLETTER DECEMBER 2020 Reflecting on the Heart as a Symbol of Faith By  Sister Uju Praise  Brethren as we celebrate the season of Advent ,It will be nice to examine our hearts.The season of Avent is the Season to take stock ,and examine our lifestyle. ​*THE HEART*  The heart is in a restricted place. It should be regarded as a sacred, secret or holy place (holy of holies). And also an inner sanctuary. The heart is to be  guarded with  all diligence inorder to make our lives worthy.  Proverbs 4:23 says: "Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life".  Because the heart is a 'secret place' we have to always consecrate it, set it apart, being conscious and selective of what we allow to go in there. So many people go through no peace, no joy, always feeling offended. It's not because they have more problems than others but because they are not guarding or protecting their hearts which is a secret place.   Mos

  NAACUS WOMEN'S MINISTRY: NEWSLETTER NOVEMBER 2020 Reflecting on the Cross as a Symbol of Faith By Dr. Mrs. Bibiana A. Acholonu ​Faith is bailing out a friend. “But there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.” – Proverbs 18:24. For our Lord Jesus Christ, “bailing out a friend” means nothing but dying for you and me on the cross.  Christ died upon the cross of Calvary to save us from all our sins and guilts. What a great faith that is? It is beyond our imagination. In fact, he ran the risk of giving everything he had, including his life to save his friends, who might not appreciate it. What lesson can we his creatures learn from this unimaginable sacrifice? Can we bailout our friends in time of difficulties without grumbling or expecting reward or pay back? Being human, sometimes we lack the skill of making such expensive sacrifice to our fellow human beings like Christ did for us. We can be our brother’s keeper with God’s grace which we can receive with ultimate faith in t
