“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”
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”
The heart of God
The subject of God is one that has and will continue to be a hot topic. Throughout centuries, men have been trying to figure out this being who is more powerful than them; they have been working hard at making themselves equal to Him to their dismay. Indeed, it seems, the more man understands somethingContinue reading “The heart of God”
