Open Up!
Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 “Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed. If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble.”
Be careful of what you think – you think particularly about God. Check where your expectation is as your expectation determines what you actually think and believe about God. Ezekiel 37:1&3 “…I was carried away by the Spirit of the Lord to a valley filled with bones… Then he asked me, “Son of man, can these bones become living people again?” “O Sovereign Lord,” I replied, “you alone know the answer to that.” Read the rest of this entry
Focal Point
Psalm 34:19 “People who do what is right may have many problems, BUT the Lord will solve them all.” (NCV).
The fact that you do what is right does not mean you will not have problems. Sometimes, when we have problems, we are perplexed because we do not think we should be having such problems because we are doing our best to do what is right. Read the rest of this entry
Right Company
1 Samuel 18:1 “…Jonathan was deeply impressed with David—an immediate bond was forged between them. He became totally committed to David. From that point on he would be David’s number-one advocate and friend.” (MSG)
We need models, mentors, and allies, and we need friends; God puts us in community where we will have access to these four kinds of people. Where do you want to be in five years? If you do not have a model for where you want to be in five years, a model who has been there and that you are imitating, Read the rest of this entry
Right Season
Acts 2:33 “Then God exalted him to his right hand upon the throne of highest honour. And the Father gave him the authority to send the promised Holy Spirit, which is being poured out upon us today…” (TPT).
Eccl.9:11 “I have observed something else under the sun. The fastest runner doesn’t always win the race…” Since the race is not to the swift, is the Bible saying do not be fast? No, the Bible is saying if you train to be fast, you are the favourite to win the race. Read the rest of this entry
Positive Turn
Ex. 17:11-12 “As long as Moses held up his arms, the Israelites won, but when he put his arms down, the Amalekites started winning …Aaron and Hur brought a stone for him to sit on, while they stood beside him and held up his arms, holding them steady until the sun went down.” (GNT)
Beginning today, by the grace of God, you will experience a definite positive turnaround in that specific area and in every area of your life in the Name of Jesus. A turning point is a point in time when something happens [like something is happening now], Read the rest of this entry
Truth vs. Error
John 8:32 And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
The story is told of a lady who was a medical doctor. God told her that He wanted her to do ministry full time. God also told her that if she chooses the medical field, He would bless it, make her prosper in it, and there will be no limit to it. However, the ministry was what God wanted her to do.

Keep
Isa.43:13 “From eternity to eternity I am God. No one can snatch anyone out of my hand. No one can undo what I have done.”
There is a huge difference between sustaining a life that God has taken and taking a life that God is sustaining – huge difference! If God wants to take a person’s life, He alone reserves the right to do so. Read the rest of this entry
Look Out!
Prov.4:23 “Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life.” [with emphasis]
The letter W from the acronym for Solomon’s six winning ways W-I-N-N-E-R is Work with a Purpose. The letter I in W-I-N-N-E-R stands for Insist on Integrity. Prov.10:9 “The man of integrity walks securely; but he who takes crooked paths will be found out” [with emphasis]. Read the rest of this entry
Dignity of Labour
Prov.22:29 (LB) “Do you know a hard-working man? He shall be successful and stand before kings.” [with emphasis]
Everybody wants to be respected, valued and appreciated. No one wants to be treated like trash or disrespected. The sixth reason why God wants us to work is because work gives us respect. Read the rest of this entry
Thick or Thin?
Jn.3:30 “He must become greater and greater, and I must become less and less.”
Physics tells us that how thick or how thin a material is, impacts on its energy transfer rate. Conductivity, Area of Exposure, Hunger and Thickness are the variables that Physics tells us affect the rate of energy transfer. We know that science copied Scripture because these factors are evident in Gehazi’s life. Read the rest of this entry
