We are halfway through the year, and I want to remind you that God has something new in store for you! His plan for your life is not for you to reach one level, get stuck and stay there for another 6 months. He plans to increase you, open new doors before you, and take […]
Do you know that God loves you so much today, more than you could ever imagine? Not only did He send His Son, Jesus, to pay the price for your sins so that He could have a relationship with you, but He also wants to lavish you with everything He has, and everything He is. […]
If you know me, you would know that one thing that really gets to me is Christians that operate on fear as opposed to faith. I declare that many people today live with less than God’s best because they’ve allowed fear to creep in and take root in their lives. Fear is the number one […]
Many people don’t fully understand what it means to forget the past. Do I do away with my history? Do I make myself vulnerable again? How do I forget something that’s happened to me?” Some of the biblical definitions of this phrase is to “disregard intentionally”, “to overlook” or to “cease reliving the pain”. In […]
I was talking with a teenager yesterday who said “it’s time to change.” She said, “I want to give my life to Christ.” We all have areas in our lives where we desire to see change; areas we know we need to come up higher, or addictions and strongholds we need to break. The good […]
Everyone is looking for good news. We always say “No news is good news,” meaning that at least we are not hearing bad news, which tends to come in urgent messages. But regarding Christ, no news is bad news. His story is filled with the spread of the good news of God’s salvation. We celebrate […]
It’s always a pain when communication breaks down. This is true not only in our human relationships but also in our relationship with God. The world is hungry for divine guidance, as we can see by the popularity of fortune tellers, channelling, and spirit guides. People look for communication with spiritual powers but do so […]
Two things you need to make it through hard times: grace and peace. These two are powerful forces in the life of the believer. Grace empowers us, and peace directs us. It’s like this: grace is the gas and peace is the navigation system. You need both to reach your destination. Scripture says, that we are saved […]
Many pastors preach an overly sweetened version of Christianity that suggests we will always be happy, never face conflict, and have a blissful existence because we believe in Jesus. I cringe when I hear someone say that if we have enough faith, we will never be sick, poor, or face struggles in life. We can […]
God sent Samuel to Bethlehem to anoint a new king. The current king, Saul, had failed to obey and honour God, so God decided to announce His choice of the next king. Jesse’s sons became the focus of Samuel’s attention: a line of seven young men—starting with the oldest and tallest. Samuel made his way […]
In John 6, Jesus compares himself to the manna that the Israelites received in the desert (see Exodus 16). Then he says that if anyone wants eternal life, they must eat his flesh and drink his blood. Was Jesus proposing that his followers literally eat him? No. But perhaps Jesus wanted his words to be […]
The words of Jesus to Peter here came soon after Peter’s faith-filled profession when he said to Jesus, “You are the Messiah” (Matt. 16:16). Jesus was now teaching his disciples that he had come to suffer, be killed, and rise again. He would offer himself as a sacrifice for the sins of the world. The […]
Are you aware God has put a promise inside each one of us? We often must go through the wilderness before reaching our promised land. Oftentimes, like Joseph, we feel like we are in a pit, long before we ever see the palace. Maybe you’re in a season right now where you don’t see anything […]
Praying and waiting for God’s direction can be a test of patience. If we get impatient, we may question every step, overanalyse open doors, and even wonder, “If I make a wrong turn, will I miss God?”. Throughout history, God’s people have been led by the Holy Spirit, but staying in step with Him is […]
Many talk about the awesomeness of God, but in the Lord’s Prayer have you noticed the way God wants you to address Him? Yes, He is the Almighty King of the universe. Yes, He is the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. Yes, He is the Omnipotent, Omnipresent and Omniscient One. We should acknowledge […]
When you obey God’s Word and have an attitude of excellence and integrity, the Bible says that God’s blessings will overtake you. You won’t be able to outrun the good things of God no matter how hard you try. He will daily load you with benefits! You won’t have to go chasing after blessings. When […]
