The Mountain (part II)

By Odon Bulamba (summary only)

God created mountains with majesty but man sometimes find a way to transform it, and when this happens it’s always to gain a profit. When a Christian allows Satan to come into his life, Satan will move around your soul to see if your faith is worth anything. If he finds a good point of entry he will start to destroy you. The way Satan works is that he will put a certain desire in you. When you fall into that temptation and sin with the same sin repeatedly it becomes like a habit. This habit will eventually become your character if you do not stop. Eventually, the character will a normal part of your life and you will declare, “it’s just the way I am” instead of fighting to change.

A volcano is a mountain, but has a hole in it and has emptiness inside of it. In this emptiness you can see fire and it boils up everyday. If you are a volcano Christian you want to show everybody physically who you are, but inside of you is bad thoughts, hypocrisy and bad actions etc. People can say you are a good Christian but what they don’t know is your heart, and when the fire comes out it will be just to destroy the work of God.

Jesus gave us an example. Two people built their house on a mountain. One had a foundation and the other not. When you climb a mountain it becomes cold and windy, and if you don’t have a good foundation you won’t last long. What is a good foundation? It is to know the will of God in your life and practice it.

  1. Hello,

    Ihave been reading some of your summary messages. They are very powerful and quinch the soul. Very good messages. May you post them integrally as we still are thirsty?

    Is this preacher, the man who use to work with Billy Graham? He is an African man with very powerful messages. I heard that he was last year in West Africa where mountains trembled with his powerful and sharp inspired messages. He is a true servant of God.

    Many thanks and God bless you.
