Are you worried about something? Is there a burden upon your spirit? As long as you are in this world there will be things poking you; there will be things disappointing you. When we are troubled, we cannot be sensitive to the Spirit of God. You need a free spirit to pray. You need a …

THE SERMON OF YOUR LIFE
“When they saw the courage of Peter and John and realized that they were unschooled, ordinary men, they were astonished and they took note that these men had been with Jesus” (Acts 4:13) When people look at your life, what do they take note of? Is it your appearance, your education, your talent or your …
I LOVE YOU, LORD!
How many times do you lovingly think about Jesus daily? Many spend so much time thinking about their life partner, friends and possessions. Instead of worshipping God, many worship materials which are of less value. God is Spirit and He created material things. Many are trying to climb the ladder of success but remember, the …
A RIGHTFUL FOCUS
In this world of distraction, it is very easy to get off track and lose focus. We live by sight when we give all our attention to the physical, which is temporary but as believers, we live by faith when we recognise our union with Jesus Christ in the Spirit. What is it that controls …
AN OVERCOMER!
Did you know that no matter how you feel right now, someone wants to be where you are, someone wants to have what you have and someone wants to be like you? You were created to be a vessel for God to use but God cannot use a discouraged servant. Worry interferes with God’s Spirit …
THE BEST PLACE YOU CAN EVER BE
Are you tired of being in the same place, the same town, the same community, the same country? Many think that if they can just change their environment, their life would be better. But did you know that the best place you can ever be is in faith? It was in faith Bartimaeus gained his …
DON’T TAKE A STEP BACK
Do you ever feel as if you are not getting anywhere – whenever you move forward, you find yourself going backwards again? This is because you keep taking steps back when you face obstacles, hindrances and problems, instead of allowing them to move you forward. Timothy experienced the same temptation but Apostle Paul warned him …
CHRIST IN OUR HEART
As you trust in Jesus, He will make His home in your heart (Ephesians 3:17). We are made to be like Jesus in our heart. Faith is of man’s heart because only faith pleases Him. The Word is our contact with God; it is His contact with us. It is the Word dwelling in you …
JOY BREAKS EVERY BARRIER
Do you compare yourself with others and measure yourself by yourself? Remember, when you are not content and spend much of your time thinking about what you do not have, you may be slipping into unhealthy doubt that can lead you away from God to scepticism, cynicism, then hard-heartedness. These are the walls that stand …
MADE RIGHT WITH GOD
Matthew 14:19 “And he directed the people to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.” Before Jesus fed the multitude, He commanded …
SON OF DAVID, HAVE MERCY ON ME!
The age of miracles has not passed; the Miracle Worker is still alive. The bank of miracles is in Heaven. “However, as it is written: ‘What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived” — the things God has prepared for those who love him’ ”(1 Corinthians …
HIS MISSION SHOULD BE YOUR MISSION
The Bible describes our lives as a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes (James 4:14). What is your mission for your short time here on earth? Is it to obtain wealth, position or power? Many are guilty of falling into the temptation to use wealth, position, power and prestige to measure …
HINDRANCES TO PRAYER
The dwelling place of God is in the heart. This means what goes on in our hearts determines the kind of relationship we enjoy with God. PSALM 66:18 says, “If I regard sin in my heart, the Lord would not have heard me’. To regard iniquity in the heart means there is some degree of …
YOUR TROUBLE – A PROMOTION!
Many Christians worry, cry, complain and murmur every day about their situation because their lives are centred on how they are doing, how they are feeling and how they are treated. Little do they consider that it is not about us; it’s all about Jesus – the One who walks beside us, daily encouraging us …
CHALLENGES ARE TESTS TO MATURE US!
It is impossible to live without challenges. How do these challenges relate to our Christian life? That you have challenges doesn’t mean that you are not a Christian! Challenges determine where you are spiritually. They reveal the true condition or position of man’s heart. A true Christian is tested by his ability to face difficult …
THE PERSON GOD CREATED YOU TO BE
“For it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose” (Philippians 2:13) God never created failure. God never created pain. God never created fear. Are you ready to be the person God created you to be? At times, our fear, our worries, our troubles seem …
SHINE AS CHILDREN OF LIGHT!
In order to be God’s person, we must seek His attention in everything that we do. Don’t forget that there is darkness everywhere but as children of God, we are not here to get used to the dark but to shine as light. We cannot walk in darkness without a light to show the way …
THE UNSEEN HAND!!!
God sometimes uses foolish things to confound the wise. For example, an unpleasant situation can serve to keep us for a new level in life. If Joseph had not been in the prison, he would not have met the link that saw him to the throne (Genesis 41:9-39). To the wise, imprisonment is a foolish …
ACTING ON WHAT GOD HAS SPOKEN!
The problem of believing is made simple when we know that it is acting on what God has spoken. The wise man is the doer of the Word. The other hears but does not act upon it. He is a sense knowledge hearer; he is a mental assenter. He responds to reason instead of the …
LOOK DEEP ENOUGH!
Faith is not a feeling. Feelings are influenced by what we see, hear, read and by what our circumstances look like. Thomas would not believe unless he could see; he would not believe unless he could touch where Jesus was nailed and cut by His side (John 20:25). He relied on what he could see …
