Proverbs: 13:24: He who spares his rod hates his son, but he who loves him disciplines him promptly. An earthly father disciplines his son or daughter by occasional spankings.

Romans 8:37: Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. Everyday, our life has something new to take on. It has something new to capture or fight over.

James 4:6 – “But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.” There’s no doubt that God is a lavish giver. He freely gives wisdom, grace and strength to those who call on Him. But it is only the humble heart that’s in a position to […]
Psalm 112:3 – “Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever.” The Bible is filled with promises for the righteous. The dictionary defines ‘righteous’ as, being morally right or justifiable. The world might consider a person righteous if he/she is a law-abiding citizen who does good to all. But […]
