Take Heart
John 16:33 “I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.”
In this world, we will have many trials and sorrows but we have an assurance of peace and victory in God. The reality is that some experiences leave us deeply scared,
Kindness
Matt.10:8 “Heal the sick, raise the dead, cure those with leprosy, and cast out demons. Give as freely as you have received!” [with emphasis]
What the world misses is that your character eventually becomes your reputation; because your character will over take your reputation. Who we are on the outside should be the same as who we are on the inside.
The Assurance
Heb.10:23 (AMPC) “So let us seize and hold fast and retain without wavering the hope we cherish and confess and our acknowledgement of it, for He Who promised is reliable (sure) and faithful to His word.”
Jer.29:10 “This is what the Lord says: “You will be in Babylon for seventy years. But then I will come and do for you all the good things I have promised, and I will bring you home again.
Conditioning
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.”
As if the conditions were not tough and confusing enough, God was demanding that they should be nice? These people had captured them and made them slaves.
Most Crucial
Jer.29: 11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.”
The world tends to focus on people’s reputation but character is who you are when nobody is watching. Many people are so bothered about what people think, say, and perceive about them. Read the rest of this entry
Divine Possibilities
Matt.19: 21 [NIV] “…go, sell your possessions and give to the poor… 29 “And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life.”
The cost of having vision, of being a God-inspired visionary as exemplified in this Scripture, is losing everything. And Jesus says the reward is you will get a hundred times more in this present world and eternal life in the world to come. Read the rest of this entry
Not In Vain!
Isa. 45:19 (TLB) “I publicly proclaim bold promises; I do not whisper obscurities in some dark corner so that no one can know what I mean. And I didn’t tell Israel to ask me for what I didn’t plan to give! No, for I, Jehovah, speak only truth and righteousness.”
So many times what God is trying to show us is far beyond what our brains can figure out. The challenge is that when we cannot wrap our minds around it, we limit our destinies.
Assessment
Matt.16:26 “And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul? Is anything worth more than your soul?”
Please study Matt.19:16-30. As we study this portion of Scripture in detail, I believe that the Holy Spirit will brood over us, and birth vision in our lives and nothing that God has put in our hands will perish, in Jesus Name. Read the rest of this entry
Take Root
Col.2:7 “Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness.”
The first weekend of every month in God’s Favourite House is dedicated to thanksgiving. However, overtime it can easily become routine for people – gather, dance, sing and give offerings. These things are good and routine can save your life. Read the rest of this entry
Keep Your Word
Luke 16:10 “If you are faithful in little things, you will be faithful in large ones. But if you are dishonest in little things, you won’t be honest with greater responsibilities.”
The battle with purity is actually a battle with decision-making. You need to be able to keep your words in the little promises such as – I will see you tomorrow by ten o’clock, I will bring groceries home, I will take out the trash and it will be done on time. Read the rest of this entry
