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…
God will RENEW and INCREASE your strength.
Isaiah 40:29 (KJV) He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. There are many things that God does for us, and we are blessed people irrespective of how life challenges are manifesting in our lives. He gives power to the faint because, in the journey of life, several things happen, and we may become weary and tired. To faint means to be spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and physically exhausted. To be in a state…
Seek the Lord and His Strength
1 Chronicles 16:11 (KJV) Seek the Lord and his strength, seek his face continually. SEEK: Acronym for: Search Earnestly Expectantly Knowing So to seek the Lord is to: Search for his ways and to look to him in Earnest, with Expectations, Knowing that He will be found of you. Let us consider what the writer is saying; he is implying those whom he was writing to had come to a place and point in their lives when they were giving up on seeking God. It happens when we say…
Oh Lord, My Praise is for You Alone
Isaiah 25:1 (KJV) O Lord, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things; thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth. Praise is due to God. Praise is not only the affirmation of who God is through the instrumentality of music but also our lives. As we declare with our mouth and we demonstrate with our lives, our gratitude to God, we offer praise to Him. Praise begins with…
God choose you; to prosper your body, mind, & soul.
Matthew 12:18 (KJV) Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my spirit upon him, and he shall shew judgment to the Gentiles. You are the chosen one of God. His choice of you was before you were conceived in your mother’s womb. He knew you before anything about you came to be, Psalm 139 vs.12 – 17. It is, therefore, imperative that as you look at yourself, you must…
Renew Your Mind and Walk by the Spirit of God
Romans 8:6 (KJV) For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Our minds are the centerpiece of all battles and victories. All that happens within us and that which we express outwardly, is as a result of the condition of the mind. Who is ruling your mind? What is controlling your mind? Where is your mind fixed? You see the Bible is very practical and the application of it rightly is the key…
God’s Love for Us Never Fails
Jude 1:21 (KJV) Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. The mindset we have about the Love of God for us is critical to how we perceive life circumstances and situations. We often judge things in life per how we think of it. Even so, when it comes to how we respond to the things we perceive to be troubling and difficult we tend often than none to question…
Living a Life of Obedience by LOVE
2 John 6 (KJV) And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. This is the commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should walk in it. The central message of the Gospel is defined in this word LOVE. As translated in the English language but from the original Greek language AGAPE. Meaning an unconditional commitment to someone.

Being Fruitful in Christ; A Blessing to Others
Matthew 7:17-20 (KJV) 17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. 20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. We are created to be fruitful. The question however is what type of fruits are we bearing? Fruit is…
