Isaiah 12:5 Sing to the Lord, for He has done glorious things; let this be known to all the world. This is a generation that loves posting ‘status updates’ ‘tweets’ ‘stories’ to share with the world glimpses of what’s happening in their lives.

Ecclesiastes 4:10 If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up. This is the beginning of three very important ‘ifs’ in life. – If you fall, slip in your decisions or get weary with the burdens of life, do […]
Ecclesiastes 4:9 Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor. From the beginning, the Lord lay the foundation that ‘it is not good for man to be alone.’ By being a loner, you are exposing yourself unprotected. But when you have a friend you can count on, you can […]
Psalm 145:21: My mouth shall speak the praise of the Lord: and let all flesh bless his holy name for ever and ever. (KJV). It was David’s character or attitude to always use his mouth to praise the Living God. His life was not an easy-going kind when he was young. He was not the […]
Psalm 147:1: Praise ye the Lord: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is comely. (KJV). Praising God is a good thing, it is pleasant and it is proper. When some people have always questioned as to why humans should praise God, there are others who […]
