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 :)
