Pure Word of God

Psalm 119:140 – Thy word is very pure: therefore thy servant loveth it. Many of us prefer fiction over non-fiction stories. We prefer romantic comedies to real-life testimonies. We prefer to dream rather than do. And thus is our approach to God’s Word! We enjoy feel-good, warm and fuzzy messages. Our favourite preacher is the […]

What and/or Where is Your Reliance?

2 Chronicles 16:9 – For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him.

1 Samuel 2:30 – Wherefore the Lord God of Israel saith, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me for ever: but now the Lord saith, Be it far from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly […]

Proverbs 10:25 – “… the righteous is an everlasting foundation.” The book of Proverbs relays numerous blessings for those who are righteous – in right standing with God. Trials and tribulations fall on all people, good and bad alike. But those who have faith in the Lord Jesus are anchored in Him during the storms […]

Godly Wisdom

Ecclesiastes 2:26 – “For God gives wisdom and knowledge and joy to a man who is good in His sight…” Solomon was one of the wisest men who ever lived. And yet, even he made some very foolish decisions in his life. We see a lot of wise, knowledgeable people around us in the world […]

Authority in Christ

Luke 10:19 – “Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” The world around us craves recognition, power and authority. Everybody wants to be in a position where they can lead, manage and make decisions. […]

Surrender and Trust

Psalm 37:5 – “Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.” With a new year upon us, it’s only natural to have a list of goals for the year and plan exciting things to accomplish in the coming months. However, life rarely goes according to plan. […]

Stand Firm in Freedom

Galatians 5:1 – “For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.” It was a monumental occasion when India received freedom from the British, a day that is still celebrated decades later. The first Independence Day marked the end of a freedom struggle, and […]
