Him Alone!
“Serve only the Lord your God and fear him alone. Obey his commands, listen to his voice, and cling to him” Deut.13:4
As a Pastor I know I cannot please everyone. Recurrently people say to me, this person or that group of people is not happy with you. I just laugh and move on. If I have done something wrong, I do not have any issues apologizing and I will apologize. But I do not seek to please everyone because I simply cannot. You cannot Read the rest of this entry
Who Matters?
“Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, for God bought you with a high price. So you must honour God with your body” 1 Cor.6:19-20
You know who you are when you know whose you are. You do not belong to yourself, you are a child of God bought with the price the price of the Blood of Jesus. You are valuable to God. For a lot of us our lives will change completely if we wake up pronouncing and knowing, I am a child of God. I am deeply loved by God. I Read the rest of this entry
Identity
“You didn’t choose me. I chose you. I appointed you to go and produce lasting fruit, so that the Father will give you whatever you ask for, using my name” John 15:16
A lot of people in today’s world wear masks. This is why there is so much hypocrisy because people do not know who they are. In order to be accepted, people try to pass off themselves as being something or someone they think will be accepted. Perhaps I will be accepted if I am pious so he or she puts on a pious attitude. She Read the rest of this entry
Who Are You?
“I AM the True Vine, and My Father is the Vinedresser” John 15:1 [AMP]
I try to be like Jesus, we all should be like Jesus. I have been asked a lot of the time, how come you are not stressed? How do you even find the time to read a book? I say to people that I read four books at the same time why because if I read one book I get bored. My brain needs to be working in different directions. Not one but Read the rest of this entry
Living Stress Free?
“Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, “I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won’t have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life” Jn.8:12
Have you remembered to thank God for this day and for His kindness? Now and again we can say that this period or that period in our lives has been the most stressful of our year so far. Stress that comes from meeting up with obligations, or attending parties just to show we care or are a part of “who is who” in the society. Read the rest of this entry
Surrender Control
“They are headed for destruction. Their god is their appetite, they brag about shameful things, and they think only about this life here on earth” Phil.3:19.
What appetite do you need to surrender to Jesus? You and I must deal with this question in order to make our lives count. I personally am very sensitive to anything that can compete with God or put me out of sync with Him. Permit me to start my next illustration with a disclaimer. There is nothing wrong with cable Read the rest of this entry
Give Control Back to God!
“They are headed for destruction. Their god is their appetite, they brag about shameful things, and they think only about this life here on earth” Phil.3:19.
The third source of distraction is Another god also known as Pleasure. Many of us will not go and bow down to an idol or worship a graven image in our homes. Yet many of us are worshiping the idle of pleasure, the idol of self, and the idol of our unbridled appetite. You need to understand that whether it is a physical image or Read the rest of this entry
Get Ready!
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake” Ps.23:3 [KJV]
I discovered that it does not hurt to believe. You need to quiet that thought in your mind that is consistently saying what if you believe and nothing happens then you will look foolish. So what? When such thoughts cross my mind, because they do, my response is so what? Am I not already a fool for Christ? I have no reputation to Read the rest of this entry
You Decide
“But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind” James 1:6
What is it that you have set your heart on? What is it that you are trusting God for? Do not doubt! When the voice of doubt comes because it will come, do not ride it. When the enemy says how can these things be? Say to the enemy, you will see it but you will not eat out of it, in Jesus Name. Read the rest of this entry
United We Stand…
“Look!” he said. “The people are united, and they all speak the same language. After this, nothing they set out to do will be impossible for them! Come, let us go down and confuse the people with different languages…” Gen.11:6-7
“The people are united, and they all speak the same language. After this, nothing they set out to do will be impossible for them! The enemy comes against us spiritually and fails and he will consistently fail. So he gives us another vision and it fails and he will consistently fail. Guess what he will try next? Another tongue [confusion] and he will fail and consistently fail concerning us. Read the rest of this entry
