The Favour of God
At times, when you read the word of God you wonder “what in the world is going on?” We must admit that God’s words can often seem far fetch or simply not just make sense.

The mercy of God
As I conclude my time in the book of Daniel, I must say it has been a delight to study the book. Unlike other times when I have read it, this time among the many points I got from the book, the humility of Daniel and the matchless wisdom of God were by far theContinue reading “The mercy of God”
Strong Faith
The character of Daniel in the Bible has been a challenging one to read. There are so many facets about him that I find shake me in my faith. As much as I find him challenging, the truth is, I want to emulate him and be like him. One of those character traits is hisContinue reading “Strong Faith”

The Pursuit of holiness
“I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” (John 14:6). This statement of Jesus is one that many take offence at.

Humility: the portion of the Christian
It has been a month since my last post. Life got busy and sadly, I was not able to set time aside to write nor was I in the capacity to do so. However, in all this busyness, I am thankful that the Lord was continually with me, He never left me and unlike me,Continue reading “Humility: the portion of the Christian”
The Day of the Lord
The Bible talks about a day that is specific to the Lord. This is a day that the Lord will use to judge the people and set things straight. It is also a day that the Lord will use to vindicate his people. Many of the Old Testament prophets have warned the people of IsraelContinue reading “The Day of the Lord”
