If there is something that I take comfort in in the Christian life, it is that Christians are never completely down. We are never out of the picture, the enemy may think he has finished us, but we always get back up. I have the image of a boxing match where we are fighting withContinue reading “Still Standing”

Being Watchful
“The fool speaks folly, and his heart is busy with iniquity, to practice ungodliness, to utter error concerning the LORD, to leave the craving of the hungry unsatisfied, and to deprive the thirsty of drink” (Isaiah 32:6). What a horrifying description of a fool that is! Have you ever thought of a fool as someone whoContinue reading “Being Watchful”
True Worship
One of the Verse of the Day this week on the Bible App was “for he who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is his name” (Luke 1:49). This verse puzzled me because in it you have two statements that do not usually follow each other, there is not even aContinue reading “True Worship”
The Grace of God
The words of the hymn “He will hold me fast” hold so much truth. Indeed, they bear witness to the truth of God’s character, that is, His faithfulness and trustworthiness as we see in our lives. How many of us can testify to the Lord’s amazing hand upon our lives? How many of us canContinue reading “The Grace of God”
On loving the Lord with our heart, soul and strength
The commandment of the Lord to the people of Israel spoken through Moses to love Him with all their hearts, souls and strength was given straight after this premise: “Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one” (Deuteronomy 6:4). Before hearing and obeying any commandment from the LORD, it is important toContinue reading “On loving the Lord with our heart, soul and strength”

I have been following a chronological yearly Bible plan for my leisure reading and I have recently hit the book of Isaiah. It is a book packed with prophecies concerning the people of Israel, Zion, and Jerusalem. It is also a book where we get to see how the Lord speaks of His tender loveContinue reading “Know the Lord”
Living with resolve
No matter how hard physical training is, I do not know one person that has regretted going through it after seeing the results. Whether it is exercising in the gym, running out, swimming, or getting in some form of physical activity consistently, we often enjoy how we feel after the exercise. Indeed, we have severalContinue reading “Living with resolve”
The importance of identity
Human beings are fascinated with history. We love to record it, study it and learn from it. Previous generations studied generations before them and today we are studying the generation of our forefathers. These types of studies help us understand the world we live in, the culture we are forging and essentially where we comeContinue reading “The importance of identity”
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. This alone should humble us because we don’t understand God. His ways are not ours indeed. I am reminded ofContinue reading “The Favour of God”
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”
