“Don’t be afraid,” the prophet answered. “Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” 2 Kings 6:16. It seems to me that the adage: “One with God is majority” came from this verse. Elisha knew God as the Lord of Host. He did not need to see God’s army that are always around His children. […]

Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved. Acts 4:12 This is a bold and clear statement that must be responded to as either the truth to be accepted or a lie to be rejected. If salvation is found only in Christ, then it […]

Elijah went before the people and said, “how long will you waver between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow him; but if Baal is God, follow him.” But the people said nothing. 1 Kings 18:21 One attribute that is common to good fathers, teachers, friends, pastors, etc. is boldness to tell the truth even if it hurts the […]

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth. Acts 1:8 I am not a car guy and know very little about cars. But one thing that never ceases to amaze me is people who buy […]

And said, O Lord, God of Israel, there is no God like you in heaven above or on earth below – you who keep your covenant of love with your servants who continue wholeheartedly in your way. 1 Kings 8:23 It is true that God is Love and that He loves everyone since He created us for His own pleasure.

This is their standard way of making request since they cannot talk. Children that can talk are taught to ask or express themselves if they had any need – […]

But the king replied to Araunah, “No, I insist on paying you for it. I will not sacrifice to the Lord my God burnt offerings that cost me nothing.” So David bought the threshing floor and the oxen and paid fifty shekels of silver for them. 2 Samuel 24:24 A sacrifice involves the giving up of something that is valuable […]

“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.” John 15:5 This verse is a bold and definitive statement without ambiguity or room to spin a different meaning to it. Jesus Christ is Lord and we are not. He does […]

Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. John 14:1 Life goes on normal if we know what we are dealing with and can manage the outcome. Uncertainties and inability to manage outcomes is the greatest cause of worry, stress and despondency. Jesus Christ knew that the disciples would face that challenge when He […]

But Samuel replied: “Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the voice of the Lord? To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams. 1Sam. 15:22 God’s love language is OBEDIENCE which He revealed in many passages in the Bible like John 14:23,24: “Anyone who loves […]
