God–Given Dreams

Luke 19:10 – “For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.” Imagine you’re off on a trekking trip with some very close friends. After hours of fun and adventure, you decide it’s time to get back home. But on the way back, someone discovers that the group has missed the […]

What do you hear?

Romans‬ ‭10‬:‭17‬ – “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” The blessing of being able to hear is that we hear something or the other all the time. The harsh beeping of the alarm in the morning, the sound of running water, the birds singing, the sound of a busy road, […]

Apart from Him

John‬ ‭15‬:‭5‬ – “I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.” Can you imagine a life without Jesus? Those of us who know Him and have tasted His love, cannot even think of […]

Created for good work

Ephesians‬ ‭2‬:‭10 – “For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.” Imagine a potter fashioning a clay vessel on his wheel. Even before he puts the lump of clay on the wheel, he has a basic idea of what the finished product […]

Humble yourself

‭1 Peter‬ ‭5‬:‭6-7 – “Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.” We live in a generation that craves recognition. Whether it is the number of ‘likes’ on a Facebook status update, or words of praise from a boss, […]

The righteous will flourish

Psalm 92:12-14 – “The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon. Those that be planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.” One pattern that seems consistent through much of the Old Testament and the New Testament is that God is on […]
