I wonder, what comes to our mind when we hear “honour God”? Is it an activity that seems attainable or is it one that we know we should do but seldom think about it? Does the thought of honouring God make us anxious or is it something we wholeheartedly seek after? The book of MalachiContinue reading “Honouring God”

“Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night.” These words make the beginning of the first bookContinue reading “Delighting in the law of God”

“I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, … you shall have no other gods before me” (Exodus 20:2). This is the first of the ten commandments that God gave to the Israelites through Moses. While the commandments continue to be laid, we hear the words, “for I am a jealousContinue reading “God opposes the proud”

The bible tells us in many forms that God is high and exalted, that He is unchanging – the same yesterday, today and tomorrow, that His ways are not our ways, that He is powerful and more. It almost seems illogical to know the Lord or seek Him. Yet, that is precisely what we areContinue reading “Knowing God”

The more you read the old testament, the more you realize the depth of God’s love and his patience. It seems God’s patience has its limits and that is shown in his judgement. But before judgement comes, God takes his sweet time because he does not delight in the death of the wicked; as aContinue reading “God’s loving judgement”

There is something incomprehensible with God; the closer you get to Him, the bigger He seems. The moment you think you are getting Him; the moment you realize He went over your head. I think I will always be amazed at what God Himself says about His ways and ours: “For my thoughts are notContinue reading “The wisdom of God”

If there is anything I have learned or am learning from reading the prophets (both minor and major) is that God is a repetitive God. In His kindness, He says the same message over and over again often with different words in the hope of wooing His people to Himself. His unrelenting spirit is mind-blowing,Continue reading “Living by faith”

Prophets in the bible have this in common, they were chosen by God. They might not have been the anointed one like Jesus, but they were all chosen. The life of prophets was not always bliss, it was often filled with hardships. Today, many don’t take the time to ponder hard about what it meansContinue reading “On Being Chosen”

This week’s post is a bit unusual as I could not simply write about one theme as I often do. I came across many truths as I was reading my bible and it became difficult to simply expand and write about one. So, I decided to give you an overview of the nine truths IContinue reading “Nine truths from the Word”

I believe timing is everything in God’s agenda. Ecclesiastes tells us that there is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the earth (Ecclesiastes 3:1). Similarly, whenever God has acted throughout history, it was always at a specific time. He did not just happen to be there or act, everything forContinue reading “The time of favour and the day of salvation”
