Lack wisdom? Bend your knees!

James 1:5—”If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.” What is your relationship with God? Is God your ATM, your blessing-giver, your run-to in times of trouble, your go-to when your need list grows? For most of the above, we […]

Prayers and peace

Philippians 4:6-7—”Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” In our world, it is highly appreciated when people take control to get things done, […]

In the world or of the world?

Romans 12:2—”And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” Let’s take a look at the world today. Adults yearn for glamourous youthful looks and exotic vacation places to travel to, youngsters […]

Faithfulness

Proverbs 20:6—”Most men will proclaim each his own goodness, But who can find a faithful man?” It is easy for anyone to declare themselves as faithful, reliable, or loyal. But will it tally if we ask around from people in proximity or those who interact on a daily basis? Typically, it is hard to find […]

Use your heart not your mask

Joel 2:13—”Don’t tear your clothing in your grief, but tear your hearts instead.” We try to be pleasing and courteous as humans. The short temper, greed, comparing with others, gossipping, lying, and what ever else may happen in the world is masked by our best appearance and behaviour. Just like we put on our best […]

What controls you?

Are you in control or are you being controlled? Genesis 1:27-28—”And God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. And God blessed them: and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it; and have dominion […]

Groom your heart

1 Peter 3:3-4—”Do not let your adornment be merely outward—arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel— rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God.” There are schools known as ‘finishing schools’ […]

Building character

Romans 5:3-4: And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also; knowing that tribulation worketh patience; and patience, experience; and experience, hope. Tribulation means great trouble or suffering.  It also means pressure or being crushed.  When a child of God goes through trouble or suffering, it works out patience.  Patience leads to experience and […]

Rest in the Lord

Psalm 37:7: Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for him; fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass. There are times when things don’t work the way we want them to work. We will feel discouraged and lose our hope in […]

God’s unfinished work for you

Ecclesiastes 3:14:  I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever; nothing taken from it; and God doeth it, that men should fear before him. God does not leave anything unfinished.  He always completes what He has started.  What He does stands forever. His word is established forever too. If God has started […]
