“But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son…to redeem those who were under the law that we might receive the adoption as sons.” Gal.4:4-5. The coming of the Son of God into the world was timely on God’s program. Although the occasion itselfwas a humble and ordinary incident, its impact has remained the greatest […]

He prayed to the Lord, “Isn’t this what I said, Lord, when I was still at home? That is what I tried to forestall by fleeing to Tarshish. I knew that you are a gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger and abounding in love, a God who relents from sending calamity (Jonah 4:2). We do not wish good for […]

Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds … (Jam. 1:2). We all face trials daily. You cannot program your trials’ timing, place, nature, and intensity. Trials are no respecters of persons. They come unannounced, do not negotiate, and care less about your beliefs. Since Jesus Christ encountered trials here on earth, don’t […]

The Lord would speak to Moses face to face, as one speaks to a friend. Then Moses would return to the camp, but his young aide Joshua son of Nun did not leave the tent (Exo. 33:11). If God is who He is and we believe Him, then it is inconceivable for anyone to ever seek help elsewhere except from […]

Who Is Jesus Christ? “Where did this Man get these things? And what wisdom is this which is given to Him, that such mighty works are performed by His hands. Is this not the carpenter, the son of Mary, and the brother James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? And are not His sisters here with us? So, they were offended at […]

We are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of man will be betrayed … They will condemn him to death… mocked and flogged and crucified. Mat. 20:18-19a Jesus Christ walked boldly into Jerusalem and suffered all He predicted would happen to Him without shrinking back. Jesus also revealed that believers will go through similar experiences. “Blessed are you when […]

You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their being. Rev. 4:11. King James’ version states that God created all things for His pleasure. The point is that God did not create you for you but for Himself. We entertain the […]

“Then Jacob prayed, “O God of my father Abraham, God of my father Isaac, O Lord, who said to me, ‘Go back to your country and your relatives, and I will make you prosper,’” Gen. 32:9. God always fulfills His promises a hundred percent. Any unfulfilled promise is not from God. Specific promises like God promised Jacob are for Jacob […]

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge. But fools despise wisdom and discipline. Pro. 1:7 As we transition into the New Year, we need wisdom to live right and this verse gives us the perfect recipe. The starting place is the fear of the Lord which is reverence, dependence and absolute obedience to God. This is where […]

Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know. Jer. 33:3 Infants naturally cry out when uncomfortable or in need of something.
