Godly Mind
Romans 12:2 “Do not allow this world to mould you in its own image. Instead, be transformed from the inside out by renewing your mind. As a result, you will be able to discern what God wills and whatever God finds good, pleasing, and complete.” (Voice)
Sometimes, when we think about God transforming us, we imagine that thunder will strike from heaven and the whole earth will shake. But the Bible says God transforms us by changing the way we think. It is the small things that nobody sees that bring about the big things that everybody wants. Read the rest of this entry
The Core
Mark 11:9 “Jesus was in the centre of the procession, and the people all around him were shouting, “Praise God! Blessings on the one who comes in the name of the Lord!”
Here is the truth, you are going to centre your life around something. The question is, what is it going to be? Is it going to be your job or money, or is it going to be your children? Do you really want your life to be centred around your job, money, and your children? Some people want to be famous. Read the rest of this entry
Refocus
Matthew 6:34 “So don’t worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today’s trouble is enough for today.”
If the future is inevitable, there is no need to sweat over it. There is no need to worry, just plan and trust God. And guess what? One thing is certain from the time man began to exist on earth till now, and that is death. Every human being will die except raptured by Christ. Read the rest of this entry
Perfect Peace
1 Peter 5:7 “Let him have all your worries and cares, for he is always thinking about you and watching everything that concerns you.” (LB).
The Word of God says, give all your worries to God. Take your worry list to God. When you are worried, do not repress it, do not suppress it, just express it to God. Philippians 4:6-7 “Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything; tell God your needs, and don’t forget to thank him for his answers. If you do this, you will experience God’s peace, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand. His peace will keep your thoughts and your hearts quiet and at rest as you trust in Christ Jesus.” (LB). Read the rest of this entry
Action!
1 Chronicles 28:20 “Then he continued, “Be strong and courageous and get to work. Don’t be frightened by the size of the task, for the Lord my God is with you; he will not forsake you. He will see to it that everything is finished correctly.” (LB, emphasis added).
Today’s anchor scripture is David’s advice to his son Solomon, and it is God’s Word to us today. Be strong and courageous and get work, do not be frightened by the size of the task. I have had people say to me that it is as if I am not afraid of anything. Some ask, do you even know what it is to be afraid? Read the rest of this entry
His Fruit
John 14:27 (TPT) “I leave the gift of peace with you—my peace. Not the kind of fragile peace given by the world, but my perfect peace. Don’t yield to fear or be troubled in your hearts—instead, be courageous!“
God wants you and I to be peaceful; lasting peace is a fruit of the Holy Spirit, God’s gift to us. You may be experiencing intense pressure, but you remain peaceful in your core and the people around you are puzzled. By the grace of God, there is nothing that keeps me up at night, nothing!

Joy & Peace
Gal. 5:22-23 “ But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things!”
The joy that overflows, is a component of the fruit of the Holy Spirit. I was reading the work of a renowned theologian Thomas Aquinas, and he said something very profound. He says, “God is happiness by His Essence: for He is happy not by acquisition or participation of something else, but by His Essence. On the other hand, men are happy by acquisition or participation.” Read the rest of this entry
Implications III
Luke 1:78-79 “Because of God’s tender mercy, the morning light from heaven is about to break upon us, to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, and to guide us to the path of peace.”
God’s promise for you is New-Streams and because of this promise, you can expect New-Streams of Colours and New-Streams of New Wine. The next thing to expect is, you are going to have New-Streams of Peace. Everything that has troubled you, Read the rest of this entry
True Protection
Ecc.4:12 “A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken.”
A peaceful life is an uncommon life. A prosperous life is an uncommon life. A protected life is an uncommon life. People are desperate for protection. They are seeking financial protection, Read the rest of this entry
The Shift
Jer.29:7 “And work for the peace and prosperity of the city where I sent you into exile. Pray to the LORD for it, for its welfare will determine your welfare.” (emphasis added)
A peaceful life is an uncommon life. A prosperous life is an uncommon life. I know a lot of people feel like throwing their hands up right now because the current state Read the rest of this entry
