NO REASON TO RUSH
Hebrews 6:11–12 says, “And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope until the end, that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.” We are living in a very impatient generation – people want to have everything […]
A GOOD CHRISTIAN
Are you a Christian? If yes, have you ever seen anything wrong with what someone else is doing? How best do you correct the person in a Christian way? How best do you honour Jesus Christ in your correction? Is it by speaking negatively about the person without love and care? The Bible says that […]
YOU HAVE A ROLE TO PLAY
God has kept you until now for a purpose known to Him alone. This is why your being alive today suggests that you will achieve your goal. However, you have a role to play. The Bible says that when you seek anything for the salvation of your soul, whatever you receive will come with the […]
CAST YOUR BURDEN UPON THE LORD
In Psalms 55:22 and 1 Peter 5:7, the Bible enjoins us to ‘cast our burden upon the Lord’. Fear is a burden; it makes the heart sick; worry can rob us of happiness. We often labour under the burden of senseless anxiety about tomorrow. Anxiety is very burdensome and oftentimes leads to sin. That is […]
THE RIGHT APPROACH
When observing your immediate surroundings, you will see satan using man’s unrighteousness to fulfil his purpose to kill, steal and destroy. As a true Christian, you must align your thoughts in line with God’s Word before reacting to your daily challenges. Unfortunately, many people today react intellectually or emotionally to their situation, and they end […]
THE WORDS IN OUR MOUTH
The words you speak determine the life you enjoy. Words are not cheap. Love and disunity begin with words. Your future is in your words. Words created the world and words create your world. This means that the words you speak determine the kind of world you will live in. The words you speak can […]
GOD’S PROCESS
Genesis 17: 17 & 19 say: “Then Abraham fell on his face and laughed, and said in his heart, ‘Shall a child be born to a man who is one hundred years old? And shall Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear a child?’ 19 Then God said: ‘No, Sarah your wife shall bear you […]
CHOOSE YOUR FRIENDS WITH CARE
Do not be deceived. There are four categories of people in our life and these are:People that add to our lives by helping our faith to grow and bring us closer to God thereby.People that subtract from our lives by pulling us out of faith and removing our minds from the things of God.People that […]
FAITH NEEDS TO BE PUT INTO PRACTICE!
If God’s children cannot commit their bodies to God when they are sick, who would believe that they have faith? Who would believe them as Christians? If God’s children cannot trust in God for problems arising in their families, can their faith be found? If God’s children cannot trust in God for their material riches, […]
DON’T PERCEIVE GOD’S SILENCE AS DISAPPROVAL
Life happens in phases. Everyone waits for the whistle or the gun when a race is about to begin, but in many instances in our daily lives, the reverse is true. In an attempt to beat the gun, we discover that we are worse off for it; we pay dearly for it. Many who were […]
A DELIBERATE SINNER
A DELIBERATE SINNER John 5:14 says, “Afterward Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, ‘See, you have been made well. Sin no more, lest a worse thing come upon you.’” Man has reasons for doing whatever he does, many excuses for his failings. This makes it difficult to admit and take responsibility […]
Value Your Trials
Proverbs 3:11–12 says, “My son, do not despise the chastening of the Lord, nor detest His correction; For whom the Lord loves, He corrects, just as a father the son in whom he delights.” Do not be discouraged when you go through difficult situations. Oftentimes, God uses foolish things to draw us closer to Himself. […]
THE RIGHT DECISION
Hebrews 13:8 says, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.” This means that whatever is rooted in the Lord Jesus is permanent, stable, incontestable, and untouchable. Life is all about taking tough decisions. For example, when people insult you, you can either ignore the insult in the spirit of forgiveness or retaliate in […]
YOU ARE GOD ALL THE TIME
There are times when we think the world around us is coming to an end. In such critical situations, we know those who are true Christians. Some people try to figure God out through their feelings, even though the Bible teaches us that our quality of faith is measured by our attitude to God, particularly […]
MEDITATION BRINGS REVELATION
The Bible is the Christian’s guide for belief and practice; it contains the Truth. When you read your Bible, you are hearing God talk. The more you read your Bible, the more you understand yourself and this God who created you. The Bible is given to us to simply invite us. God Almighty is inviting […]
A TRUE BELIEVER
The Book of James 1:2 – 3 says, “My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.” As Christians, we may have challenges, but our challenges are not like others’, they are meant to strengthen our desire and determination for God. True believers […]
FORGIVENESS BRINGS FREEDOM
The Book of Colossians 3:13 says, “Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.” The question you need to ask yourself is: who has wronged you? Remember the Lord’s prayer – “Give us this day, our daily bread and forgive […]
GOD IS WITH US
Emmanuel means “God is with us.” We like responding to the greeting, but do we really understand the meaning? Why is God with us? We need God because we are weak. Our weakness is not in terms of physical strength, material wealth, worldly position, or fame but spiritual abilities. If we are not weak, we […]
WITHIN YOU
We are created after the image of Jesus Christ; we are made in our hearts to be like Him. This means that your appearance does not matter. What matters is what is within you. What matters is your thoughts and words, that is, your capacity to believe. How do we transfer what is within us […]
LEAVE IT FOR GOD
For those who are seated on the highway of life, worrying about tomorrow, despairing about life’s uncertainties, and murmuring about life’s problems, there is good news for you. We serve a God who oftentimes brings good out of evil; He uses unpleasant circumstances to uncover His mighty grace and promise in the lives of His […]
