Strive for Peace

Actions speak louder than words and rightly so as we can see actions before we hear any words. Know that Jesus went through much even though he wasn't at fault, yet He loved us all and is through him that we know God loves the world. Therefore, try to be at peace with everyone, and try to live a holy life, because no one will see the Lord without it.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Give

There is more joy in giving rather than receiving, and it takes us while to really learn this; for when a child is born the hands are clasped tightly within but as we age and it's time to depart our hands are but open. Know that God loves a cheerful giver, therefore Give to others, and God will give to you. Indeed, you will receive a full measure, a generous helping, poured into your hands — all that you can hold. The measure you use for others is the one that God will use for you.”

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Love covers all

Love covers a multitude of sins and it's through God's love that we're saved, for Love was God's plan when he made man. For God's divine nature is love. And so I pray that your love will keep on growing more and more, together with true knowledge and perfect judgement, so that you will be able to choose what is best. Then you will be free from all impurity and blame on the Day of Christ.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Doers of the Word

The word of God is a fascinating revelation of himself. And how many of us hear these words that brings solace and joy to our hearts. But as Christians we must be doers of the word. For Christ himself has shown us what it is to take up one's cross. Therefore, 'Do not deceive yourselves by just listening to his word; instead, put it into practice. Whoever listens to the word but does not put it into practice is like a man who looks in a mirror and sees himself as he is. He takes a good look at himself and then goes away and at once forgets what he looks like.'

God Bless you and your loved ones :) 

True Wisdom and Understanding

The world today has become so full of itself that God has become an entity for a few to exercise their beliefs and practice their faith. But God in his wisdom not only created the world but has also revealed himself to the world. How happy are those who grasp this truth for the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. 

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

The Lord is Faithful

Temptations become roadblocks when we engage with them and there are times we are going to fall, but the important thing to do then is to get up and seek the grace of God for the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and keep you safe from the Evil One.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

God's plan for man

Our being came into existence for we were created as individuals, but the human race as an entity is coherent because we are interdependent as a community. For no man can live as an island journeying through life alone. When we open our hands we will not only be able to shakes another's hand, but perhaps hold and guide them; so that they can do the same, for people learn from one another, just as iron sharpens iron.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Look Up

Have you ever thought of the simple action we as humans do, whenever we think of God? we look up or point up, and why would we do that, simply because 'How clearly the sky reveals God's glory! How plainly it shows what he has done!'

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

What Pleases God

There are two ways of how we can live our lives here on earth. One that yields to the flesh and the other that yields to the spirit. While former may bring instant gratification on most occasions, the latter will always conclude in unending joy. And Jesus shows us the way of how we can always yield to the spirit, for man doesn't live on bread alone but from every word that comes from God, therefore 'do what is right and fair; that pleases the LORD more than bringing him sacrifices.'

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Give your all to Jesus

Are you tired of chasing pretty rainbows? Are you tired of turning round and round? Wrap up all the shattered dreams of your life and at the feet of Jesus lay them down. Give your all to Jesus, for he assures a life of abundance. As the word of God tells us 'watch for the new thing I am going to do. It is happening already — you can see it now! I will make a road through the wilderness and give you streams of water there.'

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Choosing God's ways

When we choose God's way, we are choosing wholesomeness, we are choosing that what we were created for, we are choosing Eternity. Happy are those whose greatest desire is to do what God requires;  God will satisfy them fully!

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

God is with us

Among all the promises made to us through scripture, there is a theme that is constant and that is God is with us. The birth of Jesus fulfills this scripture, for he came and has conquered everything, even death. Therefore, 'Even if I go through the deepest darkness, I will not be afraid, LORD , for you are with me. Your shepherd's rod and staff protect me'.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Be True to yourself

The world will always misunderstand what the humility and gentleness is. And that shouldn't deter us from being true to ourselves. Know that the powerful never have the need to show their power, and this was shown to us by Jesus. He who can say the word and heal you, couldn't he say it and the cross would be gone away from him. Therefore, 'be always humble, gentle, and patient. Show your love by being tolerant with one another.'

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Called to Love one another

Have you ever thought of how you can be more like Jesus? The answer is very simple but perhaps a little challenging to put in practice but not impossible, for Jesus himself showed us that to be like him we must 'Love one another warmly as Christian brothers and sisters, and be eager to show respect for one another'.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Being like Jesus

Everyday in life we come across different situations and sometimes they are so challenging that we find ourselves perhaps in a not so ideal position. However we always have hope and the best thing we can do is;

to have the attitude that Christ Jesus had.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Soar on Wings :)

Life on earth is journey and as we make our way through the ups and downs of life we must never forget that we were created for eternity and our focus must be on doing what our Lord Jesus commanded us to 'Love one another' even if it hurts. And  those who trust in the LORD for help will find their strength renewed. They will rise on wings like eagles; they will run and not get weary; they will walk and not grow weak.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

God Hears Us

Imagine if as a parent your child asked for something that you want to give your child, for you know that it is good. You would be happy to give that what you're child asks. And so it is with God our Father, our creator and maker. We are his children and so we have courage in God's presence, because we are sure that he hears us if we ask him for anything that is according to his will.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

The power of community prayer

No man can live like an island journeying through life alone for God created us in his image and likeness. The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are in perpetual communion. And so it is with us we born in a family and belong to our community and church. For God dwells with his people as he has given us his word "For where two or three come together in my name, I am there with them."

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

God of all things

God has plans for each one of us and while we all want to do big things in our lives, we ought to start with the small ones. We got to love more, give more, forgive more and we can do this simply beginning from our very homes. For whoever is faithful in small matters will be faithful in large ones; whoever is dishonest in small matters will be dishonest in large ones.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

The power of the Word of God

As human beings we often caught up in the world of tangible. We need to see it and feel it to believe. But God's ways and thoughts aren't like ours. If only we surrender our lives completely to his word, we will see a transformation like never before. Never underestimate the power of the word of God. The word of God is alive and active, sharper than any double-edged sword. It cuts all the way through, to where soul and spirit meet, to where joints and marrow come together. It judges the desires and thoughts of the heart.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

God's Grace is sufficient

We all have our weakness, but how we respond to them makes all the difference. St. Paul teaches us that the best response to weakness is surrender them to God and through that action we will see God's power. St Paul asked God to take away the thorn in his flesh, but God's answer was: “My grace is all you need, for my power is greatest when you are weak.”

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Word of God

What a privilege we Christians have in the word of God. It is our living God who speaks to us. Yet how many of us dwell in his word? You may be going through a time of uncertainty, of perhaps are awaiting a breakthrough. The Lord speaks directly to you; "Do not be afraid — I am with you! I am your God — let nothing terrify you! I will make you strong and help you; I will protect you and save you." Believe!

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Give God Your All

Imperfect as we are God's invitation to give him your all, always stands. He doesn't want a part of you, He wants all of you. Because that's what he has created you for; for Him. Am I willing to give God my all? Or do I find myself bargaining for what I think is good here on earth. Life here is just a passing phase and if you want to spend your eternity with the one whom you were made for, you must come to the knowledge of him and it will surely happen when you; Love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Jesus Saves

In the world we live in we have laws and the judiciary and everyone ought to be live in order to the law. While there are some who disregard the law, the majority abides by it. But this is with regards to this world. Now if we assume there's no eternity, then there is no need for salvation, but since the law of God states there is, then we surely are in need of a savior for "Salvation is to be found through him alone; in all the world there is no one else whom God has given who can save us"

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

A call to Discipleship

Each Christian has a vocation, and that is a call to discipleship. But what does it mean to be a disciple? It means to be like the teacher. Do we love as Jesus does? Do we forgive as Jesus does? The call is to have a conversation of heart and he himself showed us by taking up his cross what it is to love and forgive. Can we then pay heed to his words when he says, 'Go, then, to all peoples everywhere and make them my disciples: baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.'

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Christ lives in me

How many times has it happened that we've done things our way and weren't happy about the results. But must always remember that God is good and though the immediate result may have disappointed the larger outcome of that choice was turned into a greater good. But we can only see this through faith. So it is no longer I who live, but it is Christ who lives in me. This life that I live now, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave his life for me.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Give thanks in all circumstances

A day consists of different times; day and night. And so it is with life; there is a time for everything. While we may bask and enjoy our blessings, we must not be afraid of our battles, for we are never alone in them. Give thanks for every blessing you receive. However, if you suffer because you are a Christian, don't be ashamed of it, but thank God that you bear Christ's name.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Commit to the Lord

We all have the desire within us to carry our plans and visions that we have for our lives. But are these plans in alignment to God's will? In all that we do, we must always Ask the LORD to bless your plans, and we will be successful in carrying them out.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Worldly Concerns

Of all the things that concern the human race, it is money that brings about the most. Because the thing about money is; it is never enough. Know that every good thing created here on earth is gift from God, however we have come to love his gifts more. God's ways are different for The LORD says, “Come, everyone who is thirsty — here is water! Come, you that have no money — buy corn and eat! Come! Buy wine and milk — it will cost you nothing!  Why spend money on what does not satisfy? Why spend your wages and still be hungry? Listen to me and do what I say, and you will enjoy the best food of all.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Wholeheartedly and Totally

The world may seem to be a good place to be in, but we must know and be aware at all times that it is not permanent place for us to be in. Once our journey ends we will enter into Eternity and the only way to prepare for it is to 'Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;  in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.'

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Be Merciful!

We live in a world broken by sin, and inevitably people are going to hurt us, however, the flip side is; we are going to hurt others too. Because sometimes we will end doing that, what we don't want to. But we have hope, in Jesus Christ; our Lord and Saviour. He has overcome it all, even death. Let us then imitate Christ who was merciful to even those who crucified him, and He assures us that Happy are those who are merciful to others;  God will be merciful to them!

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Eyes of Faith

It can be a challenge to comprehend God's sovereignty and our free will and how they work together, and the truth is it is happening right now at this very moment. Know that to see what isn't obvious, we need to do so with eyes of faith. For we fix our attention, not on things that are seen, but on things that are unseen. What can be seen lasts only for a time, but what cannot be seen lasts for ever.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

God our Help

When we are faced with a problem, our first reaction is to see how we can solve it on our own accord. And we will worry ourselves out trying to do so. But know that God's ways are unlike ours; therefore, leave your troubles with the LORD, and he will defend you; he never lets honest people be defeated.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Called to Shine

The entire darkness in the world will never be able to put out the flame of single candle. In a world that is broken by sin, Christ brings hope that no else can give or take away and as Christians we are ambassadors of this Hope!! For Jesus himself has says to us; “You are like light for the whole world. A city built on a hill cannot be hidden." So don't hide away, let your light shine!

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Love in Action

God us loves not matter what and these are not just words, for he loves us so much that he sent his only son to die; so that you and I can live. Now this is loves in action! Therefore  as God does, so should we: our love should not be just words and talk; it must be true love, which shows itself in action.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Armour of God

As Christians we are equipped for battles for God himself has given us his armour. So stand ready, with truth as a belt tight round your waist, with righteousness as your breastplate, and as your shoes the readiness to announce the Good News of peace. At all times carry faith as a shield; for with it you will be able to put out all the burning arrows shot by the Evil One. And accept salvation as a helmet, and the word of God as the sword which the Spirit gives you. Do all this in prayer, asking for God's help. Pray on every occasion, as the Spirit leads. For this reason keep alert and never give up; pray always for all God's people.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Don't give up

A marathon is never about who is the fastest, it is about who is the most persistent and so it is with life; we have come to want everything in the now and this only makes us weary. Know that we are all created for eternity, and that should be our focus and goal. So let us not become tired of doing good; for if we do not give up, the time will come when we will reap the harvest.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Peacemakers!

The world may seem at unrest as sickness, war and sin plague it. There seems to be darkness all over and it is here that we as Christians must let our light shine, for no one puts a lamp under the table and we have a peace that the world cannot give nor take away. As we desire to bring peace to the world, let this endeavor then begin in our homes and know that; Happy are those who work for peace;  God will call them his children!

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

Restoration

The Christian life is that of Battles and Blessings and through it all we have the assurance of our living God who is with us in them. Gold needs the fire to be purified and shaped by the goldsmiths. And so it is with us, but after you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who calls you to share his eternal glory in union with Christ, will himself perfect you and give you firmness, strength, and a sure foundation.

God Bless you and your loved ones :)

The Lord's Ways

We can make all the plans in the world, but if it doesn't include God it makes no sense. For then our toil will only bring us stress and anxiety. Jesus said, what does it gain a man to win the whole world and lose his soul. But if we leave everything in God's hands he makes all things beautiful in his time. Therefore, let every single action you do, be for the glory of God. For 'you may make your plans, but God directs your actions.'

God Bless you and your loved ones :)
