Introduction to the book of Ezekiel

God moves in mysterious ways and He speaks to us in many forms. He is inexhaustible as Trip Lee had coined. His wisdom is so infinite you can never see Him coming. This week, I was reminded of how good God is and how He orchestrates situations in the background simply to bless us. AsContinue reading “Introduction to the book of Ezekiel”

Lessons from the Judean remnant

God is sovereign. You knew that. His sovereignty allows Him to be in control of everything. He is also omniscient which means He knows everything, the beginning from the end. These two attributes alone allow God to never be taken by surprise. On top of that, God is omnipotent. He has the power to doContinue reading “Lessons from the Judean remnant”

The Supremacy of Christ

This week I have been blessed by the study of the book of Colossians. I personally do not know of any book of the bible that elevates Christ the way Colossians does. To think that much of this knowledge about Christ came to us through a man, the apostle Paul is beyond incredible. God inContinue reading “The Supremacy of Christ”

Observations from Jeremiah

The book of Jeremiah has been an interesting read so far. More than prophecies, in it I find the heart and burden of a prophet, I see the predicament of what it means to be chosen and I see glimpses of the heart of God. The setting of the book of Jeremiah is during aContinue reading “Observations from Jeremiah”

Meditations from the week

I have had the privilege of spending time with family this week and while it’s been busy, the Lord has allowed me to make room for Himself. Indeed, the Lord continued to speak as I found moments to spend time in His words or having fellowship with like-minded believers. I am realizing more and moreContinue reading “Meditations from the week”

The courage for righteousness

“For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline” (2 Timothy 1:7). This is the portion of a believer, we have been given power, love and self-discipline or sound mind as other translations have it. I personally prefer the ‘sound mind’ rendition because itContinue reading “The courage for righteousness”

Being Set Apart

As Christians, we often desire to be used by God for His purposes. Many of us sing it, pray about it and even long for it. Yet, I believe not many of us understand the implications of being used for the purposes of God. We do not understand what being ‘chosen’, being ‘set apart’, beingContinue reading “Being Set Apart”

Honouring and respecting the Lord

In cultures where kingdoms and monarchy still exist, it is a normal thing to see the authority a king, a chief or a monarch has over the people and the land they govern. The king’s wishes are often treated as instructions or commands. In such cultures, the people understand what an instruction is and theyContinue reading “Honouring and respecting the Lord”

The Longsuffering God

Patience is the capacity, habit or act of being patient as defined by Merriam-Webster. According to the same dictionary, to be patient then is to 1) bear pain or trials calmly without complaints; 2) manifest forbearance under provocation or strain; 3) not be hasty or impetuous; 4) remain steadfast despite opposition, difficulty or adversity; 5)Continue reading “The Longsuffering God”

Salvation belongs to our God

One of the many characters of God is that He is Yeshua, the “God who saves”. Indeed, throughout the bible we are told that “vengeance is the Lord’s” (Romans 12:19) or that “salvation belongs to the Lord” (Psalm 3:8). Two of the most prominent voices in the bible that incarnate that concept of salvation belongingContinue reading “Salvation belongs to our God”
