FAITH IS NOT IMITATION!
Faith is not imitation; it cannot be imitated. It must arise in each person’s heart based on the Word of God. Faith is not imitating someone else’s actions. You cannot expect answer to prayer based on the testimony of others, what other people said or did. God will not meet you because you imitate what […]
WALK BY FAITH!
We cannot understand God by feelings. We can only understand Him by what the Word says about Him. God is everything the Word says He is, so we need to get familiar with Him through the Word. Too many people try to get acquainted with God through their feelings. When they feel good, they think […]
JESUS KNOWS ALL MEN!
Jesus knows all men – their nature and their true character. He knows when you are speaking what is in your heart. When you say, ‘Jesus is Lord’, He knows whether you are confessing what you believe. It does not take long to realise that Jesus believes that what we say is important. If it […]
RECALL GOD'S TRACK RECORD!
One of satan’s tactics is to get you to doubt God’s goodness. He tries to get you to forget all God has given you and to focus on what you do not have. If you are spending much of your time thinking about what you do not have, you may be slipping into unhealthy doubt. […]
STOP FIGHTING THE WRONG BATTLE!
As Christians, we preach the Gospel, the good news. Jesus makes it happen; Jesus makes it work in the person of the Holy Spirit. The Gospel is the good news, the message of righteousness. So, by striving against people, by standing on the pulpit to speak against others – you are fighting the wrong battle. […]
TURN YOUR SCARS INTO STARS!
If we rely on the strength that comes from Jesus Christ, He will not allow the enemy of our soul to give us more than we can take. The Bible tells us no temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful. He will not let you be tempted beyond […]
FORGIVENESS MAKES THE FUTURE POSSIBLE!
What is forgiveness? Forgiveness means that God looks at you as if you had never sinned. When God forgives, He does not sweep your sins under the carpet. Instead, He completely washes them away. Matthew 5:44 – “Love your enemies, pray for those who persecute you”. Forgiveness paves the way for harmonious relationships even […]
DO YOU LOVE JESUS?
John 21:15 – “So when they had eaten breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, ‘Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me more than these?’ He said to Him, ‘Yes, Lord; You know that I love You.’ He said to him, ‘Feed My lambs.’ ” Take note that Jesus did not ask Peter if he […]
FIND OUT WHAT GOD HAS TO SAY!
“Many today have ignorantly changed the course of events in their lives without finding out what God says about it. Why? Because they are afraid of the pain and suffering they would go through in the course of their trials. God sometimes uses disappointment to achieve His purpose in our lives. Consider the case of […]
DO NOT MEASURE YOUR CHRISTIAN LIFE BY YOUR SITUATION!
“As a Christian, your situation is only a weapon God is using to preserve you, to prepare you for the challenges ahead, to reform you for a better position in Christ or to keep you for a new level in life. Remember as Christians, whatever level we find ourselves, we believe the best is yet […]
DON’T SET YOURSELF UP FOR OFFENCE!
“When we love without expectation – I mean, when we show love without expecting it to be returned from the person we have shown love to – our love is being sown to the Spirit. To sow love to the Spirit is to honour God in our acts – in total humility and submission to […]
READ THE BIBLE WITH FORGIVENESS!!!
Question – Why does the Bible not come alive to some of us nowadays?Answer – The Bible can no longer come alive because of the unforgiveness we hold. It is because we read the Bible with so much unforgiveness and bad feelings towards our neighbours. What are the results of the Bible coming alive? One […]
FOCUS ON GOD!
The peace of conscience we derive from walking with the Lord produces internal joy, security, assurance of life and ease of heart (1 Timothy 1:2). When your focus is on God, you would never be moved by what your situation has to say; your focus would be on what God has to say concerning your […]
