Wisdom for Godly Living
Proverbs 13:20 (KJV) He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed. The Bible presents to us practically every answer we need in handling life circumstances and issues. The power of companionship or friendship can’t be denied. Companions and friendships influence our lives in ways that we cannot deny. So we are encouraged to understand how the choice we make per companionship or friendship ultimately affects our lives. Certain factors may contribute…
God wants you to PROSPER!
3 John 2 (KJV) Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. Many people are unable to trust because they are uncertain of the intent and motive of others towards them. It is often a natural thing with humans to be skeptical of others, especially if they have been victimized in the past. So the idea of I have difficulty in trusting others becomes normalized in them, and they…
What is your ‘CONFESSION’?
1 John 4:15 (KJV) Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God. The power of confession cannot be underestimated. However, it is essential to establish that confession in itself without faith in the person making such confession will amount to nothing. We heard it been said, “Confession is Possession,” implying that by what we say, we stand to see or receive, as factual as that may sound, it is not…
Let Us Seek God’s Approval, not men.
Galatians 1:1-10 (KJV) Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;) Approval is something we crave for and often seek both for ourselves and from others. It is usually a natural phenomenon that we are born with, and in most cases, we want people to approve of us. The danger inherent in seeking the approval of people is that, in most cases, it is very conditional…
Love ALWAYS defeat Fear
1 John 4:18 (KJV) There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. There are many reasons why people fear or feel afraid. Fear has a dual effect on each individual, it can bring about change, or it can become bondage unto which people are unable to release themselves from it. It is a natural response to circumstances that are overwhelming and uncertain; however,…
God Commands us to LOVE one another
Romans 13:10 (KJV) Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. We seek it and are drawn to it as humans. It is the hallmark of genuine relationships. Those who live by its standards make a lot of difference in the world. It is the very nature of God. We are called and commanded to live by it. It is spoken of as the only hallmark of being a follower of Jesus Christ.…
You can Trust the Goodness of God
Nahum 1:7 (KJV) The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him. One of the things people seek in relationships is consistency and commitment. We all seek to relate with people or persons of goodwill as well as persons whose nature we can depend on. The Bible speaks of God as that One whom we can rely on for His nature is that of goodness. The goodness of God is one of…
Enjoy the Privilege of Revelation and Knowledge
Jeremiah 33:3 (KJV) Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not. People do anything to obtain information, especially when such information will be beneficial to them. Governments send spy agencies and individuals to other countries to source information as to know what that country is doing and how to prevent them from attacking their country. So, information is said to be power. The lack of information, in most cases,…
The Peace of God is our Inheritance
Isaiah 54:10 (KJV) For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the Lord that hath mercy on thee. The revelation and understanding of His nature and character are the central keys to overcoming life’s challenges. God is forever committed to showing us how much He loves us and how much he is committed to our wellbeing. It is His pleasure to ensure…
Acknowledge God in all you…..always
Proverbs 16:9 (NKJV) A man’s heart plans his way: but the Lord directs his steps. Often it has been stated that when we fail to plan, we plan to fail. As much as there seems to be some fact in that statement, it is essential to establish that planning in itself is not all that is needed for success to be achieved in life or destiny. Planning is important, but we need to understand that there are other factors that…
Let your Words be Seasoned with Grace!
Proverbs 12:25 King James Version (KJV) Heaviness in the heart of man maketh it stoop: but a good word maketh it glad. The power of words is not a stretch. It is the catalyst of emotional response and its impacts on the mental processes of an individual. Therefore, the Bible speaks about the values of choice words and the dangers surrounding one’s life with negative words. Anxiety, which is the fear of what the future holds, especially in the light of…
True Fellowship is “walking in the light”
1 John 1:7 (KJV) But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. The power of fellowship is that it brings about change in us. Fellowshipping with God in Spirit and Truth leads us to experience the rubbing of His nature and character in us. We are called not only to be the light but also to walk…
