Psalms 46:10 – “Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!” Being still is not a familiar habit in the urban culture. We’re used to always being on the go, stopping only for the bare necessities or to engage with technology. […]
Matthew 10:40 – “He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.” Often we may do good things that go unnoticed by society or even by our near and dear ones. On the other hand, we may put up with some nastily-behaved adults, irritating neighbours, annoying colleagues, or […]
1 Corinthians 5:6-8—”Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? Purge out the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, even as ye are unleavened. For our passover also hath been sacrificed, even Christ: wherefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither […]
1 Corinthians 8:1-3—”Now concerning things sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but love edifieth. If any man thinketh that he knoweth anything, he knoweth not yet as he ought to know; but if any man loveth God, the same is known by him.” As believers, we go through […]
Psalm 51:10—“Create in me a clean heart, O God; And renew a right spirit within me.” We all go about our days “trying to” do what we are taught from the Bible. Yes, the road isn’t easy. Somehow, the days we strongly resolve to stay humble is the day that Satan also puts on his […]
John 10:17—”Therefore My Father loves Me, because I lay down My life that I may take it again. No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This command I have received from My Father.” There […]
Matthew 6:1-7—”Do not do your charitable deeds before men, to be seen by them.” Today in the secular world, one is often reminded “sell yourself to get ahead”, “you are the brand”, “market your brand”. At colleges and schools, children are taught that no matter the amount of knowledge unless we ‘show’ it noone will […]
1 Colossians 2:4-5 – “And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man’s wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.” Many times we hear “Oh! That pastor is so good. I […]
Luke 18:13: And the publican standing afar off, would not lift up as much as his eyes unto heaven but smote upon his breast, saying God be merciful to me a sinner. God sees the heart and not the person. Publicans were generally considered as sinners during the time of Jesus because they used to […]
Isaiah 40:31: But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. Waiting on the Lord is to wait in His presence and be filled with His strength. Eagles are the only […]
