“Fear not” or “Be strong and courageous” have to be some of the most repeated commands in the bible. One reason God always add to such commands is that: He is with us. I personally love how God says it in Isaiah “For I, the Lord your God, hold your right hand; it is IContinue reading “God with us.”

The Mighty God
The book of Ezekiel has been very enlightening so far. I assumed it would be another prophetic book like Isaiah or Jeremiah but it is quite impressive what the Holy Spirit can reveal in a book that is similar in genre. Indeed, God speaks in many ways. If there is one lesson that I keepContinue reading “The Mighty God”
The heart
The heart is a powerful organ that dictates many of our actions. Indeed, the bible knows how powerful it is because it warns us in the following way: “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.” (Proverbs 4:23). This proverb teaches us that we must protect our hearts or “keepContinue reading “The heart”
Know the LORD
“Hear O Israel, the LORD our God, the LORD is one. Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength” (Deuteronomy 6:4-5). This is the number one commandment the people of Israel were meant to obey. Jesus called it the first and the greatest oneContinue reading “Know the LORD”
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”
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”
