But God!
“And the Lord passed before him and proclaimed, “The Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth” Ex.34:6 [NKJV].
“On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb. They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them. In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; he has risen!” Luke 24:1-5 [emphasis added]. Read the rest of this entry
Ten Over Ten
“The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly” John 10:10
A marriage, as good as marriage is, cannot give you life. Popularity cannot give you life. A boat cannot give you life. A car, even the most expensive of cars, cannot give you life. Somebody walking down the road with his ‘leg-gedis-benz’ sees another person drive off in his Mercedes Benz and says, that is ‘the life’. The truth is, as nice as the Mercedes Benz might be, it cannot give Read the rest of this entry
The Key
“Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name. That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth” Phil.2:9-10
The key to Jesus’ Lordship entering your life and subduing every other power is in this scripture. “…at the name of Jesus every knee should bow”. It is simple, every knee should bow – yours first. The bowing of the knees must begin with you. You have to be willing to bow your knees to Jesus first. If you refuse to bow your knees to Jesus, the things that are subject to Jesus Read the rest of this entry
Believing Is Seeing
“For through him God created everything in the heavenly realms and on earth. He made the things we can see and the things we can’t see— such as thrones, kingdoms, rulers, and authorities in the unseen world. Everything was created through him and for him” Col.1:16 [emphasis added].
There are some things that are not seen. All you see is not all there is. There is more to life than meets the eye. Do not waste your life thinking that all you see is all there is. Even the biggest telescopes cannot see what is happening out there. Do not limit yourself by saying ‘if I don’t see it I can’t believe it, seeing is believing’. With God, believing is seeing. In fact, some things are not Read the rest of this entry

“O Lord my God, you have performed many wonders for us. Your plans for us are too numerous to list. You have no equal. If I tried to recite all your wonderful deeds, I would never come to the end of them” Ps.40:5.
“And men go abroad to admire the heights of mountains, the mighty waves of the sea, the broad tides of rivers, the compass of the ocean, and the circuits of the stars, yet pass over the mystery of themselves without a thought.” – Augustine of Hippo. Man travels to space and we go to Kilimanjaro and we try to explore the ocean, we look at the stars and the moon. But Augustine of Read the rest of this entry
Consider This!
“Look up into the heavens. Who created all the stars? He brings them out like an army, one after another, calling each by its name. Because of his great power and incomparable strength, not a single one is missing” Isa.40:26
Do you know how many stars are in the universe? Scientists tell us that there are about one septillion, that is one followed by twenty-four zeros [1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000]. And that is in the observable universe alone. “He determines the number of the stars and calls them each by name” Ps.147:4. It is huge enough that He determines the numbers of the stars. It is Read the rest of this entry
Great God!
“God, why are people so important to you? Why do you even notice them?” Job 7:17 [ERV].
He made the things that we can see and the things we cannot see [Read Col.1:16]. So there are things we can see and things we cannot see. Speaking about the things we can see either with our physical eyes or with the help of technology. For instance, man has created all sorts of telescopes and we are now able to see all sorts of amazing things. Take the mountains for instance; there Read the rest of this entry
Mirror Image
“Christ is the visible image of the invisible God. He existed before anything was created and is supreme over all creation” Col.1:15
Jesus is the visible image of the invisible God. In other words, even though God is spirit, but when you look at God who you would see, is Jesus. If there were a mirror large enough to capture God’s face and God stands in front of it, His mirror image would be Jesus. Jesus existed before anything else [Col.1:17]. The reason why I can confidently say that the demons that have been Read the rest of this entry
Except By Me!
“That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father” Phil.2:10-11.
Lordship simply means to have authority, control, and power over others, over situations, and over things. So when we say Jesus is Lord, we are saying Jesus has authority, control, and power. I understand that some people are at the borderline and struggling with their faith, so they wonder if Jesus is really Lord? We put up this post, “Jesus IS Lord” on one of our social media Read the rest of this entry
Be Merciful
“Don’t repay evil for evil. Don’t retaliate with insults when people insult you. Instead, pay them back with a blessing. That is what God has called you to do, and he will bless you for it” 1Pet.3:9.
God wants us to share His mercy with others. And it is because He himself has showed us that that is the way. I have a friend that is saved today; he used to be a Muslim. He has been saved for over ten years and he is doing very well in God. My friend talked to his brother about Jesus and his brother said to him, ‘I have a problem with this your Jesus and this is why I struggle to accept Read the rest of this entry
