Among all the kings Israel had, David was the reference, the one to look to. His reference was unlike any other because he followed the Lord his God in everything. In Israel, if it was told of you that you followed in the steps of David your forefather, then you knew you did well. InContinue reading “The legacy of Man”

In the spirit of Thanksgiving
As I reflect on this week, I stand amazed at how many things I can thank God for. In a week, the Lord has proven to be faithful in all His dealings towards me. I do not deserve any of His goodness and care over my life yet that is what I get. As weContinue reading “In the spirit of Thanksgiving”
Loving Our Enemies
In the book of Ephesians, Paul has a prayer that reflects his desire for the Ephesians to know the depth of the love of God. He says “and I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high andContinue reading “Loving Our Enemies”
Unquestionable Obedience
Throughout the bible there is a common theme about God which is: He is unchanging. You see that in His various commandments and in His dealings with men. What God says always comes to pass, what He requires is always the same. For a being that is unfathomable and impossible to grasp, He sure isContinue reading “Unquestionable Obedience”
Renewing our minds on love
It’s amazing how in the bible your love for God is not measured by the strength and depth of the feeling you have or the amount of time you spend thinking about the one you love but rather by your obedience to God’s words. Indeed, Jesus said “if you love me you will obey myContinue reading “Renewing our minds on love”

It is that respect and honour that makes God stick to His words; it is that respect andContinue reading “Respectable and honourable God”
Knowing the heart of God
There are not many people in the bible that are known to be men after God’s own heart. Some are known to be devout, upright, full of the spirit and pleasing to God but not many, actually no one else can boast that title except for David. If you know a bit about David inContinue reading “Knowing the heart of God”
The goodness of God
God is good all the time. It is somewhat a cliché statement but it is so true! The goodness of God is a character that we cannot fully understand. The word goodness takes its root from the word “good”. Everything that is related to good is well, good as opposed to evil. What is goodContinue reading “The goodness of God”
Standing firm in your trial
The bible tells us that Christ is the full expression of who God is. He is the image of the invisible God (Colossians 1:15). In other words, Christ is God in the flesh. If you want to see God or to know what God is like, then look at Christ. We are called to beContinue reading “Standing firm in your trial”
Taking God for granted
It is not uncommon to us to be familiar with what we have whether it be people, things, accomplishments, etc. We are people of routine, we do not like change and so we would go the extra mile to ensure our habits are not altered. This kind of attitude has made change management difficult toContinue reading “Taking God for granted”
