Psalm 119:23, 24 – “Even though princes sit plotting against me, your servant will meditate on your statutes. Your testimonies are my delight; they are my counselors.” Going through a trial is difficult in itself, but it’s worse when you have to withstand it alone. There may be personal issues in your life you are not […]
John 4:13,14 – “Jesus said to her, ‘Everyone who drinks of this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again. The water that I will give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.’” These are […]
Psalm 119:11 – “I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you.” Have you ever struggled with a sin you want to overcome, but seem powerless to do so? Paul experienced the same struggle, as he explains in Romans 7:19 – “For I do not do the good I […]
Ezekiel 34:31—”And ye my sheep, the sheep of my pasture, are men, and I am your God, saith the Lord Jehovah.” God intends for pastors (shepherds) to look after their flock (of the believers in their churches) and not only look after themselves with help of their churches. ‘Shepherds’ also include parents who are responsible […]
1 Peter 4:11—”If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.” We can plainly see […]
Thessalonians 5:16-18—”Be cheerful no matter what; pray all the time; thank God no matter what happens. This is the way God wants you who belong to Christ Jesus to live.” The one difference that stands out between a believer and an unbeliever is the peace and joy abiding in the former. Believers follow the Word […]
Proverbs 16:7-9—”By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the Lord men depart from evil. When a man’s ways please the Lord, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him. Better is a little with righteousness than great revenues without right. A man’s heart deviseth his way: but the […]
Proverbs 11:2-3—”Considering how safe, and quiet, and easy the humble are, we see that with the lowly is wisdom.

2 Peter 3:9—”The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” Put on the evening news – on one side you have Isis doing their bit governed by a leader with head strong […]
Psalm 119:68 – “You are good and do good; teach me your statutes.” We sing it loud and clear during worship, “God is good, all the time.” We believe it to be true at that time, otherwise the words won’t escape our lips that easily.
