Nothing Can Separate Us From The Love of Christ

Romans 8:35 – “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?  Shall tribulation or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?” We know “that everything that was written in the Scriptures was written to teach us” (Romans 15:4) and one of the writers God used to inspire millions across the […]

Love God and All Will Go Well

Romans 8:28 – “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.” This is for sure one of the most reassuring verses found in the Bible because it gives us a certainty that no matter what happens, it will […]

Don’t worry and look up!

Matthew 6:26 – “Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them.  Are you not of more value than they?” In every city big or small we see people hustling, cars, buses, 3-wheelers, scooters, everyone trying to get somewhere, busy running around trying […]

No Condemnation!

Romans 8:1 – “There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.” Have you ever felt judged or condemned by someone? Maybe because of a different hair style, or clothes, or because you come from a different place? Or […]

The Grace in which we Stand

Romans 5:2 – “Through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.” Imagine being face to face with the Almighty God, the Creator of all things, and how powerful and sovereign He is.  Imagine how his dwelling might be.  This […]

Food for Thought

1 Timothy 4:4 – “For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be refused if it is received with thanksgiving.” The previous verses of this chapter warns about “ hypocritical liars who order people to abstain from eating certain foods – which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who […]

Give Thanks to the Lord

Psalm 107:8 – “Oh, that men would give thanks to the Lord for His goodness, And for His wonderful works to the children of men!” There are many Psalms of thanksgiving in the Bible, and we know dozens of verses that talk about giving thanks to the Lord. But what are we supposed to be […]

Wait on the Lord’s Timing

Ecclesiastes 3:1 – “To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven.” Timing is everything. There’s a time for everything – this is not just a Biblical truth but a universally acknowledged fact. An ill-timed joke isn’t funny, and could even be offensive. People often miss scheduled events and opportunities because […]

God has Overcome

John 16:33 – “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” This is one of those Bible verses that isn’t very comforting. Jesus cautions that we WILL have trouble in this world. […]

Cast Your Cares on the Lord

1 Peter 5:7 – “Casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.” The dictionary meaning of the word ‘cast’ is, to discard or throw something forcefully in a specified direction. In today’s verse, Peter reminds us to cast all our cares on the Lord. Sometimes, we get stressed and take it out […]
