Hold on in prayer

Exodus 17:11,12 – “Whenever Moses held up his hand, Israel prevailed, and whenever he lowered his hand, Amalek prevailed. But Moses’ hands grew weary, so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it, while Aaron and Hur held up his hands, one on one side, and the other on […]

The Lord is with you

‭‭2 Chronicles‬ ‭1:1‬ ‭ – “And Solomon the son of David was strengthened in his kingdom, and the Lord his God was with him, and magnified him exceedingly.” Solomon had some big shoes to fill after his father’s demise.

Seek the Source

‭‭1 Chronicles‬ ‭29:12‬  – “Both riches and honor come from you, and you rule over all. In your hand are power and might, and in your hand it is to make great and to give strength to all.” Most of us hope to achieve something great in our lives. We strive to do well in our education and get […]

Glorify God

‭‭Galatians‬ ‭1:23,24‬ – “They only were hearing it said, ‘He who used to persecute us is now preaching the faith he once tried to destroy.’ And they glorified God because of me.” Paul had a rather startling testimony.

Be blessed to be a blessing

1 peter 3:9—”Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing.” While studying 1 Peter you will realize that Peter was talking to us-specifically: Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia- so we can look at this as a personal session. What […]

Obedience and abundance vs Hate and destruction

Deuteronomy 7:9—”Know therefore that the Lord your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments.” How do you feel today? Think about it. If someone asked you what’s going on with you; how are you doing? What would you […]

Lack wisdom? Bend your knees!

James 1:5—”If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.” What is your relationship with God? Is God your ATM, your blessing-giver, your run-to in times of trouble, your go-to when your need list grows? For most of the above, we […]

Christians must abhor and hate

Right now, you most probably have this thought – “Did I read that right?” We’ve been told – ‘Be meek. Be still. Righteousness is the way to go’. We have read that we must behave like Jesus. Well, look at Jesus’ example – Jesus also got angry as it says in the Bible (see Matthew […]
