There is something powerful about the gathering of believers. When brothers and sisters come together to spend time in prayer and worship, something supernatural happens. God resides in their midst at that moment and is pleased to dwell there. As it says “Yet you are holy, enthroned on the praises of Israel” (Psalm 22:3). WeContinue reading “Fellowship”

Glorifying God
The book of John is such an exceptional retelling of the life of Jesus that makes it hard to leave without seeing the heart of Jesus. Unlike the other gospels which focus on the facts surrounding what Jesus did, or which places he visited, or who he saved and performed miracles on, the book ofContinue reading “Glorifying God”
The light has come
We recently came off a sermon series at church called “CrossWords” which were essentially about the last words of Jesus on earth while he was on the cross. I am still amazed at how much truth and wisdom was shared from Jesus final words on the cross such as “I thirst”, “It is finished”, “FatherContinue reading “The light has come”
A living testimony
If there is someone during Jesus’ time who embodied that in the literal sense it is certainly Lazarus, Jesus’ friend and the brother of Martha and Mary. As Christians, our lives should be living testimonies of the grace and power of God at work in us. This is where we usually ask questions like “WhatContinue reading “A living testimony”
A model relationship
As human beings, one thing we cannot do without is relationships because we are relational people. This is how we were created and it shows in the way we interact with others. When we are alone, we do not do well, we become depressive, as a matter of fact, the pandemic has shown too manyContinue reading “A model relationship”
Be expectant.
The gospel of John is probably the only gospel that introduces Jesus holistically. In it, we get to see his humanity in a deeper way as John describes his many acts yet at the same time we see his deity portrayed throughout the book and established by John in the opening lines. John was certainlyContinue reading “Be expectant.”
A life of consecration
When we give our lives to Christ we become ‘slaves to righteousness’ (Romans 6:18). We change masters and move from the dominion of darkness to the kingdom of light (Colossians 1:14). This means, we no longer respond to the demands of our old master, we no longer obey him. In this case, our old masterContinue reading “A life of consecration”
The benefits of scripture memorization
One of my goals this year is to memorize the book of Colossians. The practice of memorization is not an easy one because you constantly have to go back to what you have memorized otherwise you lose it. In fact I was chatting with an almost teenage child at church who supported that idea. ThatContinue reading “The benefits of scripture memorization”
Coming to Jesus
One of the verses in the bible that shows God’s matchlessness is found in Isaiah and it says “‘For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways’, declares the LORD. ‘As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than yourContinue reading “Coming to Jesus”
The way to please God
“The righteous shall live by faith”. This verse has always puzzled me. Such is the predicament of the righteous. Who is the righteous? The one that lives by faith. I know, you did not get any further with it, neither did I. This statement first appeared in the book of Habakkuk in one of theContinue reading “The way to please God”
