Love is … I
“Three things will last forever—faith, hope, and love—and the greatest of these is love” 1 Cor.13:13
Love is a person – God is love. Love starts from the Person of God in your heart. If that does not exist, everything you do outwardly will be a noisy gong and a clanging cymbal. “Three things will last forever—faith, hope, and love—and the greatest of these is love” 1 Cor.13:13. This means that love is the highest expression of life. There are things that we see and say this is love. For instance, a man Read the rest of this entry
What Is Love?
“If I had the gift of prophecy, and if I understood all of God’s secret plans and possessed all knowledge, and if I had such faith that I could move mountains, but didn’t love others, I would be nothing” I Cor.13:2
The vertical side of love is how God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son so everyone that believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life [John 3:16]. It is love that God will call us His own and make us His own children. It is love that we have access to the Father.

“Philip said, ‘Lord show us the Father…’ Jesus answered, ‘Don’t you know me, Philip? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father.” John 14:8-9
The quest for God has been on for a while. “Philip said, ‘Lord show us the Father…’ Jesus answered, ‘Don’t you know me, Philip? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father.” So if you want to know the Father, look at Jesus. And this is love that God is a Person and not a power. A lot of us can relate to God as a power, some force that can do stuff. God has power but God is a person. And that is so Read the rest of this entry
Heart Affairs II
“But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him” John 4:23 [emphasis added]
God is looking for true worshippers! The people that will worship Him in spirit and in truth and I am praying that He finds you, in Jesus Name. True worship is worshipping God in spirit and in truth. Meaning, you do not only say I am loyal to You Jesus when you are in the midst of other believers. But when you get to your own house where no one sees you, you are actually loyal to Jesus. A couple Read the rest of this entry
Domestic Affairs VI
“Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting for those who belong to the Lord. Husbands, love your wives and never treat them harshly. Children, always obey your parents, for this pleases the Lord. Fathers, do not aggravate your children…” Col.3:18-21
God is saying to us this is how to live. However, you always have a choice with the Word of God. The Word of God is true and infallible but you always have a choice. You can either align or be out of line with the Word of God. When you align with the Word of God your marriage becomes awesome. When you align with the Word of God in choosing your marriage becomes Read the rest of this entry
Domestic Affairs IV
“Husbands, love your wives and never treat them harshly” Col.3:19
“Husbands, love your wives [be affectionate and sympathetic with them] and do not be harsh or bitter or resentful toward them” Col.3:19 [AMP, emphasis added]. A man goes out of his way trying to be nice and tries to buy his wife a gift. But the first thing the wife says is how much did you buy it? The man is not sure where this is going but he responds fifteen Read the rest of this entry
Domestic Affairs I
“Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting for those who belong to the Lord. Husbands, love your wives and never treat them harshly” Col.3:18-19 [emphasis added]
God is interested in domestic issues. He is interested in how we run our households. Paul kicks off by addressing wives, please take note he is not addressing women but wives specifically. “Wives, submit to your husbands, as is fitting for those who belong to the Lord”. What does submission mean? Submission means to submit. There will be no issue of Read the rest of this entry
Edifying Word
“The whole Bible was given to us by inspiration from God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives; it straightens us out and helps us do what is right” 2 Tim.3:16 [TLB]
It is my prayer that God will speak to you today and that His Word will change your life, in Jesus Name. Please read and study Colossians 3:18 – 4:18. God’s Word for us is that adding anything to Jesus nullifies the power of the cross. In other words, Jesus plus something equals nothing. In our culture, particularly in this part of the world, we have people saying Read the rest of this entry
More Than These?
“After breakfast Jesus asked Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?” “Yes, Lord,” Peter replied, “you know I love you.” “Then feed my lambs,” Jesus told him” John 21:15.
Every utterance will be tested. I am telling you this, by the grace of God, as somebody that is privileged [as we all are also] to walk with God. As you walk with God, believe me, God will test everything. When Abraham said He loved God, like Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, you know everything. You know that I love you” John 21:17. In other words, he was saying you are the God that knows the heart of Read the rest of this entry
Your Heart
“Love God, your God, with your whole heart: love him with all that’s in you, love him with all you’ve got!” Deut.6:5 [MSG].
“And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him” Rom.12:1. We established that God is interested in our bodies. And as we bring our bodies, God also wants our time, God wants your time, God also wants your substance. Yes, God Read the rest of this entry
