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
First & Greatest
Matthew 22:37-38 “Jesus replied, “‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment.”
Are you ready to commit the rest of your life to Jesus? Regardless of what has happened and regardless of what has gone down? Are ready to commit the rest of your life to this God, to serve Him with all your might, and all your strength? This will determine the duration and donation of your life. Read the rest of this entry
Ready?
Deuteronomy 6:5 “And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength. Love God, your God… with all that’s in you, love him with all you’ve got!” (NLT&MSG)
Who would you say was the greatest king in the Bible? Can you guess? David? David was the most famous. But who did the Word of God call the greatest king in the Bible? Interestingly not David. Was it Solomon? Solomon was the wisest and arguably the wealthiest. Read the rest of this entry
In-Step
1 Kings 8:58 “May God keep us centered and devoted to him, following the life path he has cleared, watching the signposts, and walking AT THE PACE AND RHYTHMS he laid down for our ancestors.” (MSG, emphasis added).
Ecclesiastes 11:6 “Keep on sowing your seed, for you never know which will grow—perhaps it all will.” (LB). And in the New Testament, they all will grow in the Name of Jesus. But because we do not understand the dynamics, we sometimes forget the time dynamics because we are living in a timeline. Read the rest of this entry
Slow Down
Galatians 6:9 “So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.”
When should I move slowly? When I Do Not Have All The Facts and When I Am Hurt, Angry, or Depressed (H.A.D.). The third time I should move slowly is When I Am Making A Major Decision. Proverbs 21:29 “Wicked people bluff their way (through life), Read the rest of this entry
The Rhythm
James 1:19 “…Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry.” (NIV, emphasis added).
We have learnt when we should move fast. The other side of rhythm is when do I move slowly? When do I pause, and not take immediate action? Proverbs 14:29 “It’s smart to be patient…” (CEV). So, when should I be patient? When should I ponder before I move? Read the rest of this entry
Right Now!
2 Corinthians 6:2 “For God says, “At just the right time, I heard you. On the day of salvation, I helped you.” Indeed, the “right time” is now. Today is the day of salvation.”
When should I move fast? When God Tells Me to Do Something. When I Need To Ask or Offer Forgiveness. When I Have Made a Promise to God. And When I Have An Opportunity To Do Good. Wherever you have an opportunity to go do good — move fast. Read the rest of this entry
Immediately
Genesis 22:2-3 “Take your son, your only son—yes, Isaac, whom you love so much—and go to the land of Moriah. Go and sacrifice him as a burnt offering… The next morning Abraham got up early. He saddled his donkey and… set out for the place God had told him about.”
I should move fast When God Tells Me to Do Something. For a lot of people, Jesus is beckoning on you. You need to respond immediately. For some, it is an instruction God has given to you, but you are not doing it immediately. That is the fastest way to get out of sync in life. Read the rest of this entry
In Sync
Psalm 119:60 “Without delay, I hurry to obey your commands.” (GNT, emphasis added)
Following the Holy Spirit is a skill, but you can learn it. And I pray that you will learn it in this season in the Name of Jesus. 1Kings 8:58 “May he keep us centred and devoted to him, following the life path he has cleared, watching the signposts, walking at the pace and rhythms he laid down for our ancestors.” (MSG).

In Time
Ecclesiastes 8:6 “There is a right time and a right way to do everything, but we know so little!” (GNT, emphasis added).
A lot of people seem to have two left legs. It is as if they are always stumbling. They do the right thing at the wrong time and do the wrong thing at the right time. A lot of people are usually out of sync, out of rhythm. I pray today that your life will come into the rhythm of heaven in the Mighty Name of Jesus. Read the rest of this entry
