John 21:17 “A third time he asked him, “Simon son of John, do you love me?” Peter was hurt that Jesus asked the question a third time. He said, “Lord, you know everything. You know that I love you.” Jesus said, “Then feed my sheep.” (emphasis added).
Jesus was saying to Peter, ‘From here on, I am going to put you in charge of my commission. Feed my sheep’. Jesus did not tell Peter to go on a sabbatical since he had gone through hell and high water. Jesus said to Peter, ‘Feed my sheep’. Peter’s call was grounded in Christ. Read the rest of this entry

How do you let go of your past? The first is Close The Door To Your Past. John 21:15 “After breakfast Jesus asked Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?”…” (emphasis added). Read the rest of this entry
John 21:17 “A third time he asked him, “Simon son of John, do you love me?” Peter was hurt that Jesus asked the question a third time. He said, “Lord, you know everything. You know that I love you.” Jesus said, “Then feed my sheep.”
The first fish burger ever made was made by Jesus. If you check, Jesus hardly calls Peter by his full name with his surname. In fact, Jesus gave him a nickname. So, when you have someone like Jesus, someone in authority, call you by your full name. Read the rest of this entry

Luke 22:60-62 “But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you are talking about.” And immediately, while he was still speaking, the rooster crowed. At that moment the Lord turned and looked at Peter.

Matthew 10:30-31 “And the very hairs on your head are all numbered. So don’t be afraid; you are more valuable to God than a whole flock of sparrows.”
By the grace of God, over the next few days, we will be looking at letting go of the past. This year is fast expiring, so you need to let go of all the baggage in your past. At times like this the enemy tries to creep up on us, to remind us of prayer points we have that have not been answered. Read the rest of this entry
Matthew 10:39 “If you cling to your life, you will lose it; but if you give up your life for me, you will find it.”
We will kick off today’s devotional with our final thought yesterday. Surrender is not a one-time event. You have to daily, consistently take up your cross and follow Jesus. Will you stumble along the way? Yes, as day follows night you will. Get up and keep following Jesus. Read the rest of this entry
Matthew 10:39 “If you cling to your life, you will lose it; but if you give up your life for me, you will find it.”
We are totally grateful to God for the doors He is opening to God’s Favourite House in Latin America. It is mind-blowing what God is doing, and we are totally grateful. Do you know how they catch monkeys in Latin America? They put a banana in the bottle, like in the inserted image. (more…)
Luke 1:38 “Mary responded, “I am the Lord’s servant. May everything you have said about me come true.” (NIV, emphasis added).
