Whose righteousness?

2 Samuel 22:25 – “And the LORD has rewarded me according to my righteousness, according to my cleanness in his sight.” One would think this verse was penned by the holiest man alive. That couldn’t be farther from the truth. These words were written by King David himself. True, he was a man after God’s […]

Do good and share

‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭13:15-16‬ ‭- “Through him then let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name. Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.” Giving is not always a human instinct. We’ve been […]

Allow God to console you

Psalm 94:19 – “When the cares of my heart are many, your consolations cheer my soul.” The dictionary defines ‘consolation’ as the comfort received by a person after a loss or disappointment. Other versions of the Bible substitute the word ‘consolation’ with ‘comfort’. Regardless of the exact word used in this verse, the meaning remains […]

God’s steadfast love

Psalm 94:18 – “When I thought, ‘My foot slips,’ your steadfast love, O LORD, held me up.” Many of us were first drawn to Jesus because of His unconditional love for us. We were in awe of a holy God, who sacrificed His only son to save our sin-stained souls. We felt His love in tangible ways – […]

Word of God – Our Game Changer

Hebrews 4:12—”For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” Normally, when we have a heart-to-heart chat with our family and […]

Claim Credit for God and Honor from God

2 Corinthians 10:15—”Not boasting of things without our measure, that is, of other men’s labours; but having hope, when your faith is increased, that we shall be enlarged by you according to our rule abundantly,” When we look around us, we see our neighbours change their mobiles every few months to sport the latest offerings […]

Wisdom, Knowledge and Understanding of God’s Word

Strong in His grace

II Timothy 2:2:  Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. While some seek to be strong in the riches and favour that this life can offer, Paul exhorts Timothy to be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. Trials and tests come our way, but the […]

Will you believe?

Matthew 13:58:  And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief. Faith is the prerequisite for a blessing or a miracle.  Jesus did not do many mighty works in one place because the people didn’t trust Him.  They didn’t accept His divinity or lordship. Jesus is the Lord of our life.  If […]
